"Aibou" - A Yugioh Lemon
Written by Flamedramon_girl (also known as Ryoga and Djehuti)


Yugi Mutou shuffled awkardly down the sidewalk through mid-shin deep
snow -- winter had come to Domino. The young teen was bundled up in
a thick winter jacket; the ensemble complete with woolen scarf, hat
and mits. All that could be seen of his face was his eyes under the
rim of his hat and random strands of his blonde bangs sticking out.

Yugi hated winter. For one thing, he was frozen even though he was
bundled up. He felt cumbersome and ridiculous wearing all this and
another thing that bugged him was that his Millenium Puzzle was
digging into his ribs under his coat. Yeah the snow was pretty when
it first fell, and it was nice to look at -- but trudging home from
school wasn't fun.

It had been snowing off and on all day, but it was steady now, and
according to weather forecasts, it was going to get worse. Yugi felt
a twinge of worry about his Grandfather who had gone out to do errands
and also went to visit an old friend outside of the city. He hoped
that he wouldn't get caught in the storm on the way home.

As he neared his street, he heard the scraping rumble of the plow
as it went by on it's rounds, piling the snow ever higher along the
side of the road. The snow had worsened..and a small wind had picked
up, blowing it around. Yugi raised a hand to keep the icy flakes from
hitting his eyes as he turned down his street. 'Almost there..' He
thought eagerly. Soon he would be warm again and out of these winter
clothes!

Yugi made his way down the sidewalk too deep in his thoughts to
notice the patch of ice. His feet went out from under him suddenly
and he yelped as he fell back. He landed on his right leg awkwardly
and tore his gloves on the rough ice as he tried to catch himself.

"Dammit!" Yugi cursed uncharacteristically, his eyes stinging with
tears of pain. He got to his feet with a soft whimper and proceeded
to limp slowly down the street. Yanking a glove off, he wiped his
eyes with an embarassed sniffle.

Finally at long last, Yugi arrived at the Game Shop where he and his
Grandpa lived. Since the store was closed for the day, Yugi went
around to the back, where he went through the back door. Pulling off
his winter gear with relief, Yugi replaced his boots with slippers
and padded upstairs to the living area.

He went into the bathroom to change into loose pants and a sweatshirt,
and to also check his leg. He had a nasty bruise running up his leg,
but it wasn't serious. Sighing, Yugi went into the kitchen to get
something to eat. He was just about to open the fridge when the phone
rang.

"Hello? Mutou residence", Yugi answered automatically as he picked
up the receiver.

"Ah Yugi! Hope it wasn't too rough on the way home from school."

"Hi Grandpa", Yugi greeted. "Not too bad..I fell though. I'm okay." He
added quickly before his Grandfather could get worried.

"Nnhn." Sugoroku made an affirming sound in his throat. "That's good
to hear. I was just phoning to let you know that the storm is really
bad out here. I decided to stay the night and I'll be back in the
morning."

"All right Grandpa. I'll be fine. I'm just glad that you aren't going
to attempt to travel in this mess.." Yugi glanced out the window,
seeing the worsening storm. It looked like it was going to be a bad
one.

"All right then. I'll see you in the morning Yugi."

"Good night Grandpa."

Yugi hung up and started for the fridge again.

:: Looks like we'll have the house to ourselves. ::

Yugi jumped, wincing on his sore leg. "Yami!" He said outloud. "Warn
me next time will you?" He was glad that he was alone, for it would
have looked wierd to his Grandfather if he had caught him yelling at
no one in the kitchen.

There was a dark ripple in the air and then Yami, the dark spirit of
the Millenium Puzzle, materialised before him. The spirit was all in
black, and the golden puzzle glittered around his neck. He looked
ghost-like and see through, but the crimson eyes were vibrant and
almost glowing.

Yugi stared up at his darker half in fascination. His soul partner
had always intruiged him, and seeing him outside of his mind always
filled him with secret joy. He trusted Yami with his life, and
considered his soul partner his best friend.

:: Is this better? :: Asked the deep voice in his mind. Yami tilted
his head with a small smile, his eyes dark crimson but gentle. Yugi
nodded wordlessly, finding it strange to see Yami's lips not moving,
but hearing his voice so clearly.

"Yah, I..was going to make some supper or something.." Yugi said,
pulling stuff out of the fridge to make a sandwich. As he moved about
the kitchen to get something to eat, it didn't take much for Yami's
sharp eyes to catch the limp.

:: Aibou, you hurt yourself. :: The spirit stated sharply, getting up
from where he had been sitting on a chair.

Yugi blushed a little, seeing the older spirit's concern. "It's all
right really", He said with a small shrug. "I fell on some ice." He
cut his sandwich and poured himself some juice. "I'm okay.." He said
as he moved over to a chair at the table.

Yami strided over and bent down slightly, looking at Yugi with dark
eyes. :: Show me. :: He said with a nod. Yugi felt his cheeks grow
hot and his heart pounded. He didn't know what was making him react
this way -- was it embarassment, or something completely different.

With a sigh, Yugi tugged up his pant leg to mid-thigh and Yami looked
over the large darkening bruise going up his leg. The spirit looked
him over with such lingering intensity and calm that Yugi almost
forgot to breathe.

:: Nnn...Let me help you. :: Yami said finally, kneeling infront of
Yugi and looking up at him with his usual serious expression. The
young teen stared back in confusion. "How?"

:: Just trust me aibou. :: Was the soft reply.

Yugi nodded and Yami raised his see through hands to his leg. Yugi
wondered what he was going to do..and felt a slight tingling chill as
the spirit's hands came in contact with his skin. He didn't feel any
thing like skin contact..just a dull tingle like having static on
his clothes. The boy shivered as Yami's fingers slid along the
bruise, and he watched with wide curious eyes as he heard in his mind
a soft low hum -- realising after a moment that it was a kind of
chanting.

The Millenium Puzzle around both their necks glowed softly, and Yugi's
leg felt warm, getting hot. It grew to an intense tingling burn and
Yugi inhaled sharply in uneasiness. He looked away when there was a
flash and then all was quiet. Opening an eye, Yugi looked back again
surprised to see Yami standing and looking out the window on the other
side of the kitchen. The young teen looked down at his leg and gaped
in shock to see the bruise gone and fully healed. The pain was gone
as well.

He looked up at the silent spirit. "I...don't know how you did this,
but thank you.." He said softly.

Yami turned and nodded at Yugi. :: You're welcome aibou. ::

The tone made Yugi's face grow warm again, and he tugged his pant
leg back down, hoping that Yami wasn't noticing. He started to eat
his sandwich quietly, wondering what the spirit was thinking as he
was looking out the window at the snow.

~~~

Yami was silent as he watched the snow fall, gathering in large
drifts along the street. He had noticed Yugi's reaction to him and
found the younger teen's thoughts loud and distracting. He made a
mental note to teach him how to block. It was quite easy to catch the
emotions in their link.

What he felt caused him to feel strangely.

It was exciting..yet soothing -- a contradicting sensation deep
within him. He was filled with contentment, yet..a fear as well. One
he didn't like to admit. It was all confusing to him, that emotion
getting thrown with the mix as well. What was wrong with him? He felt
this every time he interacted with his soul partner, and the feelings
increased as each day went on. He could tell that the boy felt it too.

Were they ill? No..that couldn't be it. Yami sighed mentally, making
sure that the boy couldn't sense it. No..it was something else. Before
he could dwell on it, he heard a clatter behind him as Yugi put his
dishes into the sink.

"I'm just going to get my school stuff...I left it downstairs.." He
said as he walked out of the kitchen. Yami heard his footsteps on the
wooden stairs and the door shutting. 'Aibou..what is this that I am
feeling for you?' He asked silently.

~~~

Yugi headed to the downstairs back porch where he had left his school
bag. He went out into the shop, making sure the doors were both locked
and that the closed night lights were on. Nodding in satisfaction, he
glanced out the windows. The weather had turned into a blizzard, and
he could barely see outside. The wind blew in gusts and he could hear
it howling through the glass. Yugi made a face, he hated bad weather
like this. It always creeped him out.

He went back to the back porch and grabbed his bag, shutting the inner
door behind him and turning the light on in the stair well. He was
about halfway up the stairs when the lights suddenly flickered and
went out. Yugi let out an involuntary cry of fear and ice gripped his
heart. It was deep pitch blackness all around him and he couldn't see
anything. He wasn't scared of the dark -- but this suddenness had
caught him by surprise, and his breathing was a little fast as he
tried to calm down.

Then he felt a presence right infront of him. He felt a spark of fear
at not being able to see, but somehow he knew it was Yami. He felt a
warm touch on his mind -- soothing and gentle.

:: Aibou, it's all right. I'm here. ::

"Yami.." Yugi said in both relief and uneasiness. He was embarassed
at the tremor he heard in his voice. "I..I can't see anything!"

Yami felt understanding at that. His mind was blank of any memories
he might have had before being locked away in the puzzle, but he of
all people knew what being trapped in darkness was like. This darkness
was nothing compared to what he endured, but as he listened to Yugi's
voice, his heart reached out to him.

:: The stairs are clear, just walk up. ::

Yugi nodded and trudged up slowly, sensing that Yami was next to him,
even though he didn't hear or feel anything. It was comforting
nevertheless. He held out his hand feeling against the wall until he
reached the top, hand fumbling against the knob as he turned it and
opened the door. The wood creaked softly and he walked into the living
area. It was creepy since even the streetlights were out and there was
no soft light from outside. It looked like the whole neighborhood had
lost power as well.

"Grandpa keeps the emergency candles in the kitchen.." Yugi said as
he felt his way along. "There should be matches too.." He went into
the kitchen and felt his way to the appropriate drawer, fumbling
inside. "Ah here they are!" He came up with a couple of small candles
and a large pillar candle. He found some matches in a box and carried
them over to the kitchen table.

Putting one of the smaller candles in a holder, Yugi lit a match
and it sparked to life with a hiss. Yugi almost dropped it however
when he saw two shining red orbs infront of him, shimmering like a
cat's pupils.

"Gyaah!"

Yami had been in a chair watching him, and he lowered his eyes so that
they wouldn't reflect the light. :: Sorry for startling you. :: He
said in genuine apology. :: I should have stood behind you. ::

Yugi shook his head as he lit the candle and blew out the match.
"Don't worry about it. It just startled me that's all. This weather
is making me jumpy..." As if to punctuate his statement, the wind
gusted suddenly, rattling the windows. Yugi shuddered a little and
sighed, his violet eyes seeming softer in the candle light. "At least
I can see what I'm doing now!" He said with a smile, wanting to make
Yami feel better.

Yami's lips upturned slightly, and Yugi heard him chuckle softly.
:: Yes, that is good. ::

Yugi picked up the candle and headed for the door. "Well since the
power is out, that means no heat...I'm just going to put a sweater on
or something. I..I was thinking of lighting the small woodstove in
the livingroom, that will do great in warming the place up too.."

Yami nodded and watched as Yugi left and listened to his footsteps as
they receeded to his room. It was going to be an interesting night
that was for sure. The older spirit was resolved and decided not to
go back to the puzzle until the storm lessened. He wanted to comfort
his soul partner and be there for him. Perhaps these strange feelings
could be sorted out as well, for it would be best for the both of
them. 'Yes, for the best..' Yami thought silently, his crimson eyes
not needing light to see -- gazed out into the night.
