Yami growled shoving his hands in his pocket as he stalked back and forth in his room like a caged tiger.

Why was this so hard for him? He could do it any other time and it was over in a moment...so why was this time so different?

'You dare ask yourself a question you already know the answer to?' he chided himself as he looked over at the cordless that lay haplessly on his bed.

The time at the amusement part had been nice, he supposed glancing over at the large yellow bear that now occuped a space between his closet door and bookshelf.

It had been a setup by his friends in their attempt to get him over Mai. Otogi had proved to be a gentleman the whole evening and didn't try anything funny, so...what was the harm? It was just a phone call.

He sighed giving in as he crossed the room sitting down as his hand wrapped around the base of the phone, and before he knew what he was doing, his fingers were already punching in the well-memorized number, lifting the receiver to his ear listening to the phone buzz.

Once...
Twice...

'If by the fourth ring...' Yami thought as there was a 'click' from the other side and a voice came through.

"Hello?"

"H-hello..."

The anxiousness he'd been feeling all evening went away in that instant just from that one little word.
