Chapter Eleven

Seto awoke that morning and rolled on his side to look at the sleeping spirit. He sighed knowing he could only touch his love when he was asleep and never while awake. He wondered if it was only just a dream or if Yami was really there. Seto's attention was then brought back to reality when Yami moaned and opened his eyes slightly.

“Good morning.” Seto whispered.

“Mmm, morning.”

“So what would you like to do today?”

“Well….I should try and go see Yugi again.” Yami whispered.

“Alright we can do that, but first I need some coffee.” The CEO crawled out of bed and threw on his robe.

Yami followed Seto downstairs and into the kitchen. Seto looked at Yami who sat at the other end of the table.

“Umm, Yami I had a dream about…us last night.”

“I know.” Yami answered as he looked at Seto.

“You knew?” Seto gasped as he looked at the spirit wide eyed.

“I made you have that dream so I could…be on a more physical level. I never meant for us to…” Yami trailed off as he looked down at the table.

“I am sorry Seto I will not do it again.”

“NO!” Seto yelled a bit louder than he wanted to. Yami's head snapped up and looked wide eyed at the CEO.

Seto looked at his coffee and then to Yami.

“I liked you visiting me and what happened was both of us not just you. You may visit me in my dreams as long as you want.”

Yami smiled at Seto as he leaned back in his chair.

The two were enjoying each others company when the doorbell rang. Seto stood and went to answer it as Yami got up and walked to the window. The leaves were almost completely off the trees now and it was raining, but just lightly.

Seto walked into the dining room and saw Yami staring out the window. He walked over toward the spirit.

“Yami” Seto spoke as Yami turned around he gasped at who was standing beside him.

“Yugi.” He breathed

“Yugi…what?...why?” Yami could not put a sentence together at the moment.

Yugi stepped closer to Yami and was looking at the floor.

“I came to…apologize for acting the way I did. I just…I couldn't believe it was you.” Yugi looked up at Yami with tears in his big amethyst eyes.

Yami looked at the floor and then toward the window.

“Yugi there is no need to apologize I should have never come to you so soon.”

“No, I'm glad you did.” Yugi got closer and smiled.

“I'm glad because I know you are here and I am able to see and talk to you again.”

Yami turned to look at his hikari and smiled. “You don't know how happy that makes me.”

Seto looked at the clock and then turned back towards the two. “I need to get to work, but you can stay here as long as you like Yugi.”

Yugi looked at Seto. “Are you sure?”

“Of course I'm sure.” Seto smiled.

“Thank you.” Yugi smiled back as he watched the CEO turn and make his way out of the room.

After Seto went to work Yami and Yugi sat on the couch and for thespent seven hourstalking about everything from duel monsters to their friends.

“Kaiba's holding a new tournament next month. Will you come and watch?” Yugi enthusiastically bounced up and down making Yami laugh.

“Of course aibou I wouldn't miss it for anything.” Yami smiled

“It's good to have you back.” Yugi smiled.

“I'm glad to be back aibou.”

Yami looked at the clock and noticed the time. “Seto will be home soon.”

Yugi looked to see what time it was. “Six o'clock! Oh man I need to call jii-chan.”

Yugi reached in his pocket and pulled out his cell phone. Yami watched his hyper active hikari. `Sometimes he has way too much energy.'

Yami started to get up when suddenly he felt a pain shoot through his body and became dizzy. He fell back on the couch and started shaking uncontrollably.

Yugi took notice and panicked. “Yami...YAMI!”

“Yu...Yugi.” Yami breathed as his eyes rolled back and his head leaned to the side.

“YAMI!” Yugi screamed.

Seto had just entered the house when he heard Yugi screaming. He dropped his coat and keys on the floor and quicky ran into the room where the screaming was coming from.

Seto came rushing in. “What happened?”

“I don't know one minute he was fine and the next he was convulsing.” Yugi looked up at Seto horrified.

Seto was at a loss of what to do. Yami had passed out; he didn't even think spirits could do that. He looked from Yugi to Yami who was slouched on the couch with his head to the side. He looked so much more pale and weak.

`What is going on Yami?' He thought as he sat on the other side of him.

Seto and Yugi sat on either side of Yami hoping that he would be alright. Finally Yami's eyes fluttered open.

“YAMI!” Yugi shouted glad to see his other awake.

“What happened?” Seto looked at Yami concerned as to what had caused it.

“I….I don't know.” Yami shrugged.

“Well you're okay now right?” Yugi asked wiping the tears from his eyes.

“Yes aibou I'm fine.”

Seto looked at Yami not certain the Pharaoh was speaking the truth. He looked shaken and run down. He looked so tired and the once fire in his eyes had dulled.

“Are you sure?” Seto asked concerned for him.

“Yes, I am sure.” Yami stated as he looked from Seto to Yugi.

Seto was sure that Yami wasn't telling the truth, but didn't want to scare Yugi by voicing it. He would wait for him and Yami to be alone before he asked him what really happened.

The rest of the evening the three watched a movie and talked. Seto looked at his watch and noticed that it was already midnight.

“Well I think it is time to turn in for the evening.”

Yugi looked up at the clock then turned to Seto and Yami. “Good idea.”

Yugi walked to the guest room that he had stayed in previously and Yami followed behind. Yugi fell back on the bed and Yami sat beside him and looked at his hikari who smiled at him.

“Are you sure you are okay Yami, I mean you were out for some time.”

Yami smiled reassuringly at his aibou. “Yes I am fine aibou.”

Yugi sat up and turned to face Yami and smiled. “I love you my dark.”

Yami smiled “I too love you my little hikari.”

Yami waited till Yugi fell asleep then made his way to Seto's room. He walked in and noticed that the CEO was already in bed. He floated over to the bed and lay down beside his love.

“Waited for Yugi to fall asleep?” Seto whispered as he rolled over to look at the spirit.

“Yeah, he wanted me to stay until he did.” Yami smiled at Seto.

“Yami I am really worried about you. Are you sure everything is alright?”

“Seto you do not have to worry I am fine really. Please get some rest.” Yami smiled and rolled over.

Seto just lay and stared at the ceiling for what seemed like forever before he finally fell asleep.

Yami opened his eyes after he heard Seto's breathing even out proving that he was asleep. He sat up and looked at his love. `How can I tell Yugi and him that my time is short and soon I will have to depart to the after life?'

He sighed and looked out the window at the bright full moon. `I need to speak with Ishizu and quickly.'

Yami stayed up all night with his thoughts. His head was hurting like hell and he could feel his energy leaving him. He looked at the clock and saw that it was already 5:30am and knew that Seto would be getting up soon to go to work.

He looked in on Yugi before he left, he was sleeping peacefully. He went downstairs and made his way out. He stared at the moon and stars that were still gracing the sky. He sighed as he began to walk toward the museum.

`I hope Ishizu can help, I don't think I could stand the heartbreak of saying good bye.'
