Tea had made some macaroni and cheese, and that had been inhaled by everyone, except Yugi, who had instead had to be cajoled into a few bites of Yami's, but he did eat a little, and for his friends sakes at least. Yami sat with his back against the couch Indian style, with Yugi sitting in the hollow between his legs. Yugi was leaning back against Yami contentedly, and was sipping a soda. The others were occupying the couch like a litter of puppies, everyone lopped over everyone else, except for the ever antisocial Yami-Bakura, who was still holding his sleeping Aibou, and was tolerating Tristan's cheek resting against his knee surprisingly well. Tea had turned on the television, and they had universally decided on some T.V show about gardening. It was that or the news. Everyone seemed to be getting a kick out of it though; the host was obviously half drunk or something. Either way, it was as close to a comedy as they got. They cajoled each other a little, thought it was more subdued than usual, but the strain was lifting a little. There was even some laughing, and Yugi even baited Tristan into a debate over what the host was on. Time dragged on, and three or four shows later, it was definitely time for bed.

It was Tea who pointed out the fact as she shook a sleepy Joey awake and Yami stood, lifting a heavy-eyed Yugi to his chest. Bakura was still sleeping, so everyone looked to his Yami.

"Where you want us to sleep?" Tristan slurred as he pushed himself off of the momentarily bewildered Yami.

"Uhhh?"

"So the guestroom then?" Joey to the rescue.

"Yes, I'm sure that is what Aibou would want. I know that they have spare blankets here in the hall closet."

Joey nodded as he ambled over to the closet. Opening the door he rummaged through, passing out blankets and pillows, some from the closet, some from the couch.

Tristan took his blankets and remembered about the pack Joey had packed for Yugi.

"Yami?"

"Yes?" The white haired Yami blinked as he stood, holding a still snoozing Bakura.

"Pharaoh Yami." Tristan corrected sleepily.

"Me?" Yami Yugi blinked.

"Yes you! This is some of Yugi's stuff, change of clothes, toothbrush, etc."

"Thank you, Aibou will be appreciative."

"Asleep already, is he?"

"Yes." Yami stated.

"Alright!" Tea heaved, "Bed. All of us. Now. We have a long day ahead tomorrow."

And after much tooth brushing, face washing and elbowing for sink space, all were calmly snuggling into blankets on the floor of the guest room.

Yami pulled a restless Yugi back to his chest for the third time. Normally, his Aibou would cling like a starfish to anything and sleep like a rock all night, but Yugi seemed ill content to stay in one place, rolling over, occasionally whimpering. It made Yami worry even more.

And it didn't help that he missed grandpa too… He ended up pulling Yugi to his shoulder, and crying into his soft hair.

"Mhhh.. Yami?" Yugi asked sleepily as he woke to warmth splashing across his cheek.

"Yami…oh Yami." Yugi's still somewhat smaller hands tangled in Yami's sleep shirt, pulling the reluctant Pharaoh from his position of curled around Yugi until their gazes could meet. Ruby eyes were glittering with unshed and shed tears alike.

/I miss him too Yami./

//Yugi, its alright, don't worry about me, go back to sleep…//

/Yami. I love you, how could I sleep when you are sad?/

//What?!//

/oops./

//don't oops me, what did you say?//

/I need a drink of water./

Yugi leapt to his feet, silently bolting out of the room, tripping on Joey (Joey to his credit, did not stir, even after being unintentionally kicked in the gut by Yugi.) And stepping over Tea, made it from the bedroom, down the stairs, and to Bakura's kitchen, before the embarrassed blush had a chance to full spread from the top of his nose to the back of his neck. He hadn't expected Yami to follow his high-speed retreat, but a moment later, the pat of bare feet on kitchen tile announced Yami had not only arrived, but arrived at a trot.

"Aibou…what did you mean when you said that."

Yami pinned his surprised Aibou to the kitchen wall, using his arms to cage Yugi in.

"Mean what?" Yugi feigned innocence and looked away, but his blush was telltale.

"Yugi, You are in love with me aren't you?"

Yugi opened his mouth to deny it, and all that came out was a sigh.

"I didn't know you were gay! I share a body with you for Ra's sake!"

"I…" Yugi burst into tears. "I'm so sorry Yami, I tried not to…I tried, I even asked that new foreign exchange student out…but he turned me down. He said he knew from the look in my eyes that I was in love with someone else. Oh Yami! Im SO SO sorry. Now is not the time to have told you that, not at all and…"

Yami sighed exhaustedly.

"Yugi, you are SO confusing. You love me but your sorry you love me?"

"NO! That's not it!"

"Then what IS it?" Yami prodded.

"I love you."

Yami looked into those violet eyes, brimming with honesty and fear, and then he understood.

"You thought I would abandon you if I knew, didn't you?"

Yugi nodded, sliding down the wall out of the cage of Yami's arms, until he hit the floor with a thump.

"Your going to now, aren't you?"

"Sweet Ra Yugi, No!"

"Then what ARE you going to do?"

Yami knelt until he was at an equal height with his Aibou, his fingers tangling in the thick hair, pulled back in its nightly ponytail. The sleep blurred and confused violet eyes. The uncertainty and fear that radiated through the bond drove the point home hard. Yugi was terrified. Yami would have none of that. Leaning down until their faces were inches apart, until Yugi unconsciously tilted his head back towards the wall, until Yugis closed eyes and trembling lips were turned upwards in a gesture of absolute submission. Yami whispered centimeters away from Yugi's silky lips, his breath a soft puff against closed eyelids.

"Do you think I will be offended if you touch me now… do you truly think I hated to hear you say that you love me? …Yugi?" The last word was like hot butter sliding off a knife. Seductive as silk; Yami purred his Aibou's name.

"Ya…mi…" Yugi whispered. He needed something that would relieve the ever-growing tension just under his ribs that tingled with something like copper bright arousal and perhaps, something that would make the shaking in his hands stop. His stomach was clutched into a tight knot, still waiting for the rejection, the hate. It never came. Only Yami's rose petal soft lips on his. His darker half's mouth was sweet and supple, and Yugi unintentionally let his arms slide up the back of strong arms, a whimper starting that parted his lips. Yami took advantage and let his tongue glide inside the silky cavern and felt Yugi startle at the heat, he wanted to taste everything Yugi had to offer, plundering until he taught Yugi's inexperienced tongue to dance with his own.

/Yami, god, Yami, please, I need, I need I…/

//Shhh. Yugi, All in due time. Now is not the time for that. Later!//

/You?!/

//I love you too Yugi, I always have. We are both too tired for any other, pursuits…tonight. Just let me taste you, I want to taste you. Taste the truth and light in you.//

"mhhh…Ya…mi…" Yugi whispered around the invading tongue.

Yugi pressed his palms to the flat of Yami's back, feeling the muscles tremble, reminiscent of the way he was trembling now.

/Why are you trembling Yami?/

//Because I want you. I've wanted you for so long. *sigh*//

Yami pulled away, suctioning the last bit of wetness from his kiss off of Yugi's slightly swollen lips.

"Yami." Yugi whispered as he slumped against the wall.

"Aibou, we should return to bed, you and I will need our strength for tomorrow."

"Yami, that was…I've never been kissed before, it was a nice kiss." Yami laughed at the dazed expression on Yugi's face

"Bed Aibou, now that that is settled." Yami smirked quietly. His heart felt ten times lighter, just knowing that Yugi loved him.

Nudging the bond, he felt the same emotions washing back from Yugi.

When the two nestled back on the floor again. They found that lying next to each other had become quite a temptation, as neither of their sleep shorts seemed to fit quite right anymore, as Yugi noted; to Yami's amusement.

/How can so much change in so little time Yami?/

//I do not know, but if you didn't keep me so, well, in the dark, things could go allot smoother.//

/*laughter* Goodnight Yami./

//Good night, precious one.//
