Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Happy With You ❯ Unexpected Surprises ( Chapter 3 )

Unexpected Surprises

A few days later Yugi's fever had gone down and this relieved Yami greatly. He also wouldn't be very bored since he could talk to him while Grandpa closed the store so he could go visit some his friends that day. He planned to give little Yugi a treat he think his light defiantly deserved since he'd been stuck in his room sleeping the hours away like his Grandpa told him to.

After Grandpa left and disappeared down the street Yami sighed happily and tore back into the living room. He set some blankets and a couple pillows down and popped a movie into the VCR. Looking around at his handy work smiling and having a feeling Yugi would deeply enjoy his gift. Giving one last check to make sure everything was set up right he ran up the stairs a little too eagerly than he had intended.

He knocked on the Yugi's door and was answered with a soft, but annoyed moan to come in.

Yami smirked. `He must think it's Grandpa again. He only came in a million times before he left.' "Yugi, it's me."

Yugi looked up, much happier looking than he sounded just a second ago. "Oh, hey Yami. What's up? Did Grandpa leave already?"

The taller laughed quietly; glad to know his light was defiantly feeling better. "Don't worry, hikari, he's gone and won't bother you the rest of the day. Meanwhile, I have a surprise for you."

Yugi perked up even more and sat up in his bed. "Really?" He asked excitedly. "What is it?" The little one almost jumped out of bed with anxiousness.

"Settle down my hikari. I can't tell you or it wouldn't be a surprise. If you come downstairs though, you can see it." The dark one prompted.

"But Grandpa said."

Yami interrupted. "Grandpa's not here. Are you coming or not?" He joked.

"Yes, but Yami."

"Hmm?"

"I'm still kind of dizzy. Could you carry me like you did on Christmas," a blush threatening to stain his cheeks as he asked.

"Of course not little Yugi." And with that Yami once more picked his light up and carried him bridal style back downstairs.

Once downstairs Yugi gasped as he understood what his Yami wanted to give him. "Yami, I…" Yugi closed off his sentence unfinished, unable to think of what to say.

Yami only chuckled at hit light's antics and discarded him playfully on the couch and threw a blanket over his head as he sat next to him.

"Does this mean I really get to stay down here?" Yami didn't miss the hopefulness that caught in his hikari's voice in the question.

"At least until your Grandpa gets home and throws a fit, but don't worry," he winked, "I'll make sure the blame goes to me. Besides," he relaxed into the couch as the amethyst eyes watched him carefully, "I think you deserve a little treat to get out of that room. You've been cooped up in there for so long already it seems like and I'd be going crazy if I were you."

"Yeah, but you're not me and I don't want to see you get into any trouble." He made to leave but a firm, but gentle, hand caught his wrist and pulled him back onto the couch.

"No. Don't worry about me Yugi I can handle it. I'm sure your Grandfather wouldn't mind if you just a movie anyways."

"As long as it's not scary." Yugi gave in and settled next to his yami.

"I give you my word, aibou." Yami answered as he pushed the play button the remote next to him and clicked the light off."

`If only I could really be your partner as a couple, Yami. I'd like that very much.' Yugi thought to himself as he watched the advertisements of the video come up in a blur of different colors. "What movie are we watching?" Yugi curiously asked as the opening credits came up.

"I'm sure you'll like it. It's `Serendipity'. A romance with a bit of comedy, is that ok with you; there's other movies too."

"No this is fine. Serenity told me it was really good and I've been meaning to watch it for a while."

Somewhere in the middle of the movie Yugi somehow ended up in Yami's lap with his head resting against his chest and Yami's arms wrapped rather possessively around his waist.

It was such comfortable position and everything seemed so perfect at the time that Yami forgot that his secret love was a secret and brushed his lips against the other's unknowingly.

Yugi, a bit surprised at first, returned it willingly. Yami pulled back when he did though out of surprise. Yugi looked at him, blushing furiously as a mirror image of Yami's face.

"I-I'm sorry Yugi. I didn't me-mean to do that. I wasn't think and it was comfortable and perfect time and…" Yami continued with his pointless ramble until Yugi hushed him by putting a finger to his lips.

"Yami, I've been meaning to say this for a while. At first I was confused and I even went to Bakura about. I knew Ryou wouldn't have known anything about this but maybe he would…and he did. He explained what I was feeling and at first I thought he was joking around with some trick on me, but later I realized it wasn't a joke. Yami I lo-lo…" Yugi took a deep and nervous breath, trying with all the courage he could muster up in himself to tell his darker half what he felt. "Yami I love you." Closing his violet eyes tightly and waited for the reply.

None came for the little light, none that was verbal. His answer was another kiss on his lips and he easily relaxed into letting Yami control everything. Then Yami pulled back a second later to look into his light's violet, innocent eyes.

"Yugi…I thought you could never return my feelings, but you did. Yugi, I love you too, more than anything else in this world. I can't imagine being without you since I first met you."

"Oh, Yami. Thank you." He snuggled his face into Yami's warm chest and let his tears of happiness fall freely. "Thank you so very much Yami. I love you with all my heart. Really I do."

"You have nothing to be thankful for, aibou." After a second thought he added, "my koi."

Yugi lifted his eyes and gave a watery smile to his other. "My koi, you're mine too right?"

Yami nodded and wrapped his arms tighter around the small light…his small light.

"I'm sorry for everything Yami."

Yami looked down confused. "What about koi?"

"For taking so long to tell you how I felt. I thought you were going to leave me if I told you, that you'd be disgusted for thinking like that. I was afraid you were going to reject me so I kept it to myself."

"Oh koi, I could never leave you. Though I must admit I too felt afraid of your rejection since you are my innocent, my light. I felt as though you were too pure to want my tainted darkness."

"I don't think you're tainted my yami. I think you're the best thing that ever happened to me." For the first time in a long time Yami felt tears form in his own eyes at his Yugi's sweet words. Not trusting his voice he kissed his aibou's forehead and nodded his thanks.

Once everything settled down once more and Yugi watched the movie sleepily with Yami rubbing his arm soothingly they both fell asleep just as the ending credits came on.

A few hours later Grandpa came home and was surprised to see Yami and Yugi on the couch and both were sleeping peacefully. Yami had his arms wrapped around Yugi's slender waist and Yugi with his arms around Yami's neck and his head resting gently on the darker one's chest, sitting in his lap and Yami's head resting on Yugi's. He let them be and went to bed himself.

In his sleep Yami smiled and hugged his aibou closer glad to have fended off yet another evil creature from his small koi. And Yugi hugged him back at being protected so well. Both of their dreams continuing and being with each other.
