~Previous Chapter~

It was nearly two in the morning when Kaiba and Jou returned from the party. The reception was still going strong thanks to Bakura and a few shots of Wild Turkey. After getting the boys changed and in their cribs, Seto and Jou lay curled in bed together.

"Dragon, what do you think Yami and Yugi are up to right now?" Jou asked, laying his head against Seto's chest.

Slowly stroking the blonde locks, he responded, "We could find out."

"How?" Jou asked, pushing himself up on Kaiba's chest.

"With this." Seto held up a slender sliver remote control.

A stunned look fell on Jou's features. "Seto!!! You closet voyeur!"

~Chapter 4~

The holidays had come and gone, leaving behind cold snowy weather. Due to the Christmas holiday, the Game Shop had been staying open later for parents to buy cards and other items for their children's wish lists. Now that the holiday rush was over, Yami and Yugi spent most of their time restocking the shop together. Ever since their wedding, it had been nearly impossible to separate the two men. Tonight was no exception.

"Yami, did you happen to see where the new Duel Monsters cards went? The new box we just got in today?" Yugi called from his ladder in the stock room.

Coming in to join his husband from the storefront, Yami was smiling, clearly amused. "Of course. You put them over here." He waited for his light to descend the ladder before moving it to the opposite wall of the room. Climbing the ladder, Yami began to slide a large box out.

"Yami, stop!" Exclaimed Yugi, worrying that his husband was going to hurt himself or the baby. "You shouldn't be…lifting…that." He trailed seeing the box being lifted with ease.

"I'm fine, for the millionth time." He countered, handing the box of cards over. "They're not that heavy."

Glaring at his dark half, Yugi vowed, "If we find anything wrong with the baby tomorrow, I'm holding you responsible."

Rubbing the side of his belly, Yami assured, "She's fine."

"She didn't seem fine last night." Smirked the small duelist, remembering back to the events of the past evening.

"Aibou, I doubt if anyone could have been calm with how aggressive you were last night." Not that he'd ever let on, but he was still sore from the rough activity. Both men froze as the shop's doorbell signaled the arrival of a customer. "I'll go. Finish what you were doing." He left with a kiss to Yugi's forehead.

Heading to the front of the store, Yami saw an unmistakable mop of blonde hair. "Jou? What are you doing out in this weather?"

Looking up from a display of booster packs, Jou's eyes danced. "Yami! I'm glad you showed up. I need two things from you." Taking a breath he continued, "I need a little gift for Seto. That's the first thing."

"Okay, and the second thing?" Yami was in front of the stroller carrying the twins. As he knelt on the floor, he began talking to the babies.

"The second thing is, I need you to baby sit the twins overnight tomorrow."

Yami looked surprised. "Why, is something wrong?" Usually Kaiba never let the boys out of his sight.

Jou grinned, "Nope. Hopefully everything will be better than fine when we pick them up." Explaining his request further, I want to have one night like we use to. Before the boys were born."

"Ah!" Yami realized what his friend was talking about. "What time were you thinking of dropping them off?"

"Would six be okay?" Jou asked.

Nodding, Yami informed, "It's fine. I've got a check up at one, so everything should be fine."

Stepping close to the Pharaoh, Jou put both hands on either side if Yami's belly. "You're getting bigger."

"Thanks, tell me something I haven't figured out." Yami teased, ruefully. "You said you needed a present. What were you looking for?"

Looking around the shop, Jou responded, "Something with both our dragons."

Wracking his brain hard for anything like that in stock, Yami brightened. Going behind the counter, he knelt down and began to search through a box on the floor. While he was searching, one of the babies started crying. Finding what he wanted, Yami pushed himself up to find Jou cuddling Zaylin to his shoulder. "Here. See if this works." He offered as he took the crying baby from Jou.

Opening the box, Jou found a silver chain with a pendant on it. The pendant has a silver dragon with sapphires for it's blue eyes. It closely resembled Seto's Blue-Eyes. The dragon was wrapped protectively around another dragon. This one was made of onyx and had ruby colored eyes almost as dark as Yami's. "My Red-Eyes…" Jou's index finger slid reverently over the back of the dragon. Smiling up excitedly, "I'll take this. It's beautiful."

"It is." Agreed Yami, playing a game of "Hide the Baby" with Zaylin by briefly covering his eyes. "Want me to get Yugi to wrap it for you?"

"Yeah, if it's not too much trouble."

Taking Zaylin, and then reaching for the box, Yami took off talking to the baby. Reaching Yugi, Yami asked, "Aibou, Jou wants something wrapped up. You do it for me?" His attention turned back to Zaylin, making a goofy face at him, sending the baby squealing with delight.

The two men came back out to Jou, Yugi carrying the box, and Yami carrying the baby. "See you little ones." The Egyptian whispered, putting Zaylin in the stroller for Jou.

As Yugi handed his friend his change, he said, "See you tomorrow Jou."

"Yami told you…" Jou flushed, embarrassed. Yugi only smiled.

After Jou and the boys left, Yami leaned heavily against the display counter. He'd only taken his normal hours, but tonight had suddenly caught up with him. It seemed that lately he was getting exhausted doing small things. Laying one hand on his belly, he looked at his watch with the other. "Yugi, go turn the sign around, there's only ten minutes left. We can pick up tomorrow." With a heavy sigh he added, "We'll finish up tomorrow."

"You okay? You look tired." Yugi walked to the door and changed the `OPEN' sign. As he turned around, he heard a mop and a bucket being moved and water being drawn. "Yami, don't worry about it. I'll mop tonight."

"No, Aibou, I can do it. It's my job anyway." The Pharaoh's pride finally got the best of him. He came out toting a small bucket and a mop. Getting halfway around the shop, Yami took a short break as Yugi swept the stockroom. Rubbing his back as he stood up, he let out a small moan.

"Yami, stop being stubborn. Give me the mop and go upstairs." He saw the baby move beneath the loose clothing worn by Yami. "Get a nice shower and relax. I don't want her hurt."

"But, you shouldn't…" Yami stopped as his little light glared at him. "Fine." He resigned. Leaving Yugi along, he made his way up the stairs to the main area. Hearing Yugi's grandfather in the kitchen, the Pharaoh decided to stop and tell him goodnight.

"Hello Yami. Haven't seen you too much lately." The old man remarked.

"Umm…yeah. I've been spending time with Yugi and I'm working as much as I can while I'm still able." He explained.

Coming over from the fridge, the old man offered his grandson-in-law a sandwich. "You don't eat enough." He commented. "How am I suppose to have a strong great grandchild when you two are starving her?"

"Sir, I promise, she's fine and I'm taking care of us both." Yami patted the elderly man's shoulder. "Now, I'm going up, taking a shower, and relaxing for a little."

"I'll bring you a tray of food later." Grandpa promised. "And it better be all gone, too."

Finally making it to their bedroom, Yami gathered up a pair of red silk boxers and a tight white shirt. He promised Yugi he'd wear appropriate clothing when they were out, but at home, anything was fair game.

Moving on to the bathroom, the Pharaoh began letting the water run. As he waited for the water to get warm, he turned on the small radio. Tuning into his favorite radio station, he undressed and climbed beneath the spray.

After washing his hair and body, Yami stood beneath the warm water appraising his expanding figure. Despite the baby and unnaturalness of the pregnancy, there were no stretch marks to be found. Running his hands over his stomach, Yami absently started to sing long with the song on the radio. It was Linkin Park's "Somewhere I Belong". At one point the lead singer let out a long scream, which started the baby kicking hard. "So, you like that, huh?" The Pharaoh continued while stroking his belly. "When we get out of here, you can listen to them some more."

Shutting off the water, Yami climbed carefully from the bathtub. Drying off most of his body, he slid into the silk boxers. He noted with pride that the elastic had to stretch over his belly now. Toweling off the rest of himself, he slid the shirt on. Like the shorts, it also had stretched around his stomach. Running a hand down his front, he whispered to the baby, "I can't wait to see you little one."

Yugi was waiting in their room when Yami came back in. "Everything's taken care of. After I get my shower, maybe we can have some time to ourselves." He purred seductively, walking up to his dark half. "Just you…and me." His hand caressed the Pharaoh's strong jaw line.

"Mmm, you better hurry then. I'm not in the mood to wait." Yami grinned hungrily.

Grabbing a pair of boxers, Yugi made off to the bathroom calling, "Grandpa sent up a tray off stuff. He wants you to eat it."

While his lover was in the shower, Yami slid his Linkin Park cd in the player and picked up the tray. It contained several sandwiches, some fruit, a bag of chips, and several bottles of water. "What the heck does he think I'm going to do with all of this?" Yami wondered to himself.

Grabbing a sandwich from the pile, Yami lay back and enjoyed his music. He noticed that anytime someone screamed, the baby would kick particularly hard. As if testing his theory, he lifted his shirt and just watched his stomach. With the next scream, he was rewarded with seeing an elbow or foot push against his tight skin.

//Yugi…I…I saw her kick!// Yami exclaimed.

/You better calm her down, love. Remember, it's all about us tonight./ Yugi teased. Somehow though, knowing he'd missed something so special made him slightly jealous. "Yami gets everything. HE can carry our child; HE gets to feel it move…he's so lucky. I'd give anything to be able to do that." He thought to himself. Yugi was thrilled about the baby, but never quite got over the fact that he couldn't carry it.
