~~~~~~~~~~~Interesting School Day~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ryou do you have the books?"

"Got them. Let's go," replied Ryou as he and Yugi walked to school. During the walk they talked about their project. Well, actually Ryou was talking. Yugi was just listening and nodding his head. He was really thinking about last night. It was the first night he had spent away from Yami in a while. He didn't have any dreams that night, but was still too afraid to go to sleep completely. What Ryou said last night made Yugi think about all the time he had spent with Yami.

"Yugi…..Yugi! Wake up, were here," yelled Ryou. "Are you ok? Did you sleep at all last night?"

"Just a little," the other teen replied. "I couldn't sleep more than a few minutes at a time." Yugi looked around the campus trying to find his dark side. He spotted Yami near the doors laughing at something Jou said. Yugi felt mixed feelings when he looked at him. He felt fear, confusion, and though he'd never admit it, he felt affection for the former Pharaoh.

"Are you thinking about him?" asked Ryou, making Yugi jump. "Jeez Ryou! You're getting too sneaky, like Bakura."

"Is that a problem for you?" asked a voice from behind. Ryou sighed and rolled his eyes, while Yugi turned around. He backed away slowly from Bakura's form, and bumped into Ryou.

"I asked you a question, and I'm waiting for an answer," Bakura asked as he stepped closer. Yugi saw that Malik and Marik were behind him with scary grins on their faces.

"Bakura," Ryou said a warning tone in his voice.

"I'm still waiting kid," he said again as he moved closer to Yugi, who was now standing behind Ryou, eyes big with fright.

"He won't give you an answer tomb robber," said Yami, who appeared in front of Ryou through the Millennium Puzzle.

"He insulted my Ryou, so I want an apology," Bakura said as he glared at Yami.

"You will not hurt Yugi in any way," said Yami glaring back at Bakura, anger filling his crimson eyes.

"Bakura, he didn't insult me. It's ok," said Ryou as he pulled the spirit of the ring away. "Feh," was all he said as he, Malik, and Marik followed Ryou.

"Are you ok Yugi?" asked Yami, turning to his light.

"Yea I'm fine," he replied quietly, looking at the ground.

Yami stared sadly at his other side, who was still ignoring him. He had hoped Yugi wouldn't be afraid of him any more, but he was wrong. He rested his hand on Yugi's shoulder, causing the younger one to look up at him. Yami smiled at him, letting some of the love he felt show in his eyes. Yugi noticed the emotion in his eyes, and smiled back at him. Together they walked into the school.

Yugi spent all day thinking of the emotion he saw. *What was that? It was so comforting, but so strange. I felt….loved. Could it be he….no way. He was the great Pharaoh. Why would he even care about me? What if Ryou was wrong? I can't take this anymore.*

"Mr. Mouto? Mr. Mouto?" the teacher repeatedly called. Yugi didn't respond, but continued to stare out the window. The teacher rubbed her head in frustration, and reached over to poke Yugi, to get him to respond.

Yami noticed this and called out to Yugi through their link. \Yugi are you ok?\ When Yami wasn't answered he tried again, this time louder.

\Yugi! Hello? Are you there? Yugi I'm serious, answer me. YUGI! \

/Yami? What is it? /

\Are you ok? You didn't answer me, or the teacher?\

/Teacher? /

\She's been calling you for five minutes. People are starting to notice.\

Yugi snapped out of his dazed state and noticed the teacher standing over him. "I'm sorry Mrs. Avalon, I guess I don't feel good today."

The teacher reached over and felt his forehead. "Hmm, you don't feel hot, but go to the nurse just incase. Take your books too, incase you don't come back."

Yami watched worriedly as his light walked slowly out of the class. He didn't sense that Yugi was sick, so there must be some reason he said that. Yami half listened as the teacher continued talking, but mainly he was looking out into the hall, looking for his beloved aibou.

Yugi wasn't in the next two classes either. By that time, Yami was panicking. The ancient spirit tried calling for him, but found their line was closed from Yugi's side. When the lunch bell rang, Yami rushed out of the class room and ran to the nurse's office.

"Hello Mr. Mouto. What can I help you with?" asked the friendly nurse at the front desk.

"I'm here to see Yugi. Is he ok?"

The nurse smiled brightly, but shook her head. "I'm sorry, he's sleeping now. You can come back at the end of the day, if he's still here."

"Is he ok? There's nothing wrong with him is there? He seemed fine, so why hasn't he come back to class yet?"

"He's fine, but he complained of a head ache, so we gave him some medicine and he fell asleep. If you want, you can take a quick look. It might make you feel better."

Yami slowly nodded his head, and went in the room. He opened the door, and peered in. He saw Yugi sleeping peacefully on the bed. He let out the breath he'd been holding as relief washed over him. He turned to the nurse and asked if he could go in for a few minutes. She smiled and nodded, closed the door, then left.

Yami tentatively walked closer to Yugi's form. The spirit noticed Yugi's skin was paler than usual, and concern came over him again. He couldn't let Yugi get sick. He was supposed to protect him. How was he supposed to do that if he couldn't even protect his light from a sickness?

"Yugi?" he whispered as he took hold of the teen's hand. It felt cold, so the spirit rubbed it a little. Presently he felt the hand tighten around his, and he looked at Yugi's face. Yugi was slowly waking up, when he noticed Yami. "Y-Yami? What are you doing here?"

Yami suddenly hugged Yugi tightly, and laid his head on Yugi's shoulder. "I was worried when you didn't come back. Are you ok?"

Yugi was shocked at his dark's unexpected actions, but hugged him back anyway. "I'm ok. My head just hurt really badly."

"Are you sure that's it?" Yami asked as he pulled back to look into Yugi's eyes.

Yugi smiled reassuringly and nodded. Yami smiled back and hugged him again. He didn't know why, but he needed to be close to Yugi now. He didn't want anything to happen to him, so he would stay with him.

Yami hugged Yugi tighter and moved his head closer to Yugi's face. Yugi tensed up at the movement, but relaxed as Yami started to nuzzle his cheek.

"Yami?" he whispered, confused at the actions his other half was performing. He thought of pushing him away, but stayed still, waiting for something to happen. Yami on the other hand was still moving his face. When he stopped, his lips were just an inch away from Yugi's. Neither of them knew what would happen next, so they sat there. Yugi's breathing was becoming shallower, and he started quietly panting. Yami could feel the rise and fall of Yugi's chest increase, so he didn't move.

Yami then moved back a little to look into Yugi's eyes. Yugi was looking at the sheets between them, but lifted his gaze to look into the Pharaoh's crimson eyes. Yami came closer to Yugi again, aiming for his soft lips. He came so close he could feel Yugi's warm breath on his face. They were less than an inch apart and Yami was coming in for the finish.

"Yami visiting time is over. Oh Yugi, I see you're awake."

Star: Ha! I gave you a cliffie. Oh come on people, did you really think I would make them get together that fast? At least I managed to get some fluff between them. Blame the song I'm listening to. They are getting closer, but the troubles and especially the dreams are not over.

I will post up a new chapter when I feel better. It won't be this weekend though, because I'm going on a camping trip for a school club. I'll post soon though. Please review.
