Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh… Oh well ;_;

Blinking a few times, The smaller of the two looked at this man. Why was this guy holding onto him.. and why was he so comfortable with it?

Yuugi yawned and looked at his savior. They could be long lost twins or something. This man had a few for streaks of blonde in his hair, and sharper features. Along with the two ruby eyes instead of amethyst, and a slight height difference. The guy just… wouldn't stop looking at him.

"Ano… Very well, thank you… but.. Who are you?"

Yami chuckled softly. The boy's voice was full of innocent curiosity, and the glimmering mauve orbs staring so widely at him only added to the affect of cuteness. The taller shook his head and smiled down at the being in his arms. He didn't know his name either.

"Oh, where are my manners," One startled Yami's hand was grasped and shook eagerly, "I am Yuugi Mouto, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. …?"
Yet again, Yami laugh quietly at the seemingly-young ones' enthusiasm. Setting Yuugi down onto his bed, he sat at the end.

"Yami, Hiwatari Yami.*1* Now, Mouto-san, I would say you should rest. It is good for a cold to be treated with sleep and a lot of fluids."

Yami laid the young one under his covers, after Yuugi had gotten changed into a pair of his pajamas, and stroked the light one's forehead. Either his hand was really cold, or Yuugi had a rather large fever. Retreating to the kitchen, Yami reached up for the medicine cabinet, bringing back a thermometer and cold syrup.

He placed the thermometer into Yuugi's mouth and started to pour some cough medicine into the lid of it. When the shrill beeping started, He removed it from the warm orifice and gasped.

This was too high! Yuugi was burning up, and quick. Yami slowly slid Yuugi up, running a hand down the teen's rutted spine. He place the medicine to Yuugi's lips, and let him take hold of the cap. When he was finished, he looked up at Yami with grateful eyes.

"Thank you for taking- *cough cough* care of me- *sniffle* Yami.. I really appreciate it…" He blinked drowsily and fainted onto the soft mattress. The crimson-eyed man sighed and decided to write a note to the sleeping one in his bed.

~*~

Yuugi woke with a start, sweat gleaming down his skin. He moaned as pain shook him tiredly. He looked around, and noticed that he wasn't in his room. Where was he… Oh yes, Mr.Hiwatari's room.

Beside him was a night stand, with a few pictures frames and a note. Yuugi, not being one to pry, but curious as hell, looked over the note. It was addressed to him.

~Yuugi-

I've gone to get us some food, and am wondering if you have anyone I need to call. I also have called the doctor, and he said that it would be best if you stayed in bed for about two weeks. You can stay here if you want…

It would give us a chance to get to know each other. I'm rather new in Domino, and don't have any friends. That is, except for a certain neko who you will find very soon.

I'll be back within the hour, call this number if you need anything. Food is in the fridge, and the bathroom is just outside this room.

See you soon, Yami~

At the bottom was a phone number, beside it written, "Yami's cell Numb."

Yuugi smiled a bit, and coughed feverishly. He looked around, and took in his surroundings. Yami's room was pretty spacious. It had a nice Egyptian theme, painted with pastel colors and all sorts of scriptures he had never seen before. The bed he was in was all silk and feathers. It was also a canopy bed, so a light hue draped over him, and the sides of the well built, wooden frame, cut out the light, mostly.

At the edge of the bed was a dark brown and black colored fluff ball. Yuugi crawled towards it, and tenderly poked it. He jumped back, how ever, when the thing moved.

Then he remembered a specific part of the note… ~… I'm rather new in Domino, and don't have any friends. That is, except for a certain neko who you will find very soon…~

So this was Yami's cat? Cool, Yuugi thought, as he brushed his hand along the silky fur. Slowly, the cat stood and turned it's cerulean eyes over to Yuugi. And although they couldn't, Yuugi swore he saw it smile. It mewed happily and crawled over to the teen, rubbing it's neck up against his chin.

Yuugi spared a smile towards the feline, before he continued to look around. His stare was caught on the photo frames again. They were all facing away from him… And Yuugi, being the curious one still, reached over to the frames. His fingers were just inches away when…

"Yuugi! I'm back! Are you awake?"

`Mou, well, I'll just have to have a look later…'

"Meeeeoooooooowu!"

The Neko, which had been watching Yuugi, jumped off the bed, and ran out the door, to meet it's owner. Yami came waltzing into the room, cat in leather clad arms, beaming down at Yuugi.

"So, sleeping beauty has finally awoken?" He placed a hand on Yuugi's forehead, wincing slightly at the burning feeling, "How do you feel, chibi ichi?" He questioned, noting Yuugi was flushed… or was he blushing?

"Ah, I have a bit of a headache. And my arm is throbbing… Although, I'm sure yours would be too if you had been on my team for dodge ball.."

Yami laughed aloud this time. The small one was so funny. He lifted up a small bag on the floor next to him.

"Dinner for three?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Ah- Arigatou!"

Whooooo, Go me. That's pretty long… if I do say so myself ^_^
