By: Blackened Gem

Gem: Okay, I'm trying to come out of my little writer's block thing. So I'm going to try and post another AtemuxAnzu fanfic. I'm sorry but with my doctor's appointment coming up and school starting so soon it's been a bit stressful. And also, windows kinda shut down on me. x.x Ugh...Anyways, I'm back and trying my hand at this little random fanfic that came to my head. ^_^ So, This story has humor and romance, plus a little drama due to a certain ex of Atemu's.

Joey and Yugi: She doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh! And if she did we'd all be plushies for the rest of our lives! ^-^

Gem: Meanies...You would not.

Atemu: Eh...

Gem:....Peh. -To the crowd- And please know, I'll be using only Tea's Japanese name. So..Yeah. Enjoy! And don't ask about the title. ._. I don't know how it came to be. So remember: Nice and encouraging reviews, NO FLAMES! Advice is welcomed.

"Speaking"

'Thoughts'


Chapter One: Excuse me? You're what?!

"Great! Just great! Today of all days had to be extremely humid!"

A sigh escaped from a short tri colored haired person, "Joey, that's because it's the middle of SUMMER!!!" The slight sharpness in the shorter male's tone made the tall blond jump and back away. Slightly afraid of his short friend.

"Eh..Sorry Yugi. Just don't remember summers being THIS humid." Joey said, laughing nervously as he rubbed the back of his head.

It just happened to be a Friday. The one day before the weekend, and the one day when Joey Wheeler did not have to worry about homework. At that moment, all that mattered to him was getting home, getting a nice shower or possibly go swimming then take a shower, then call his girlfriend; Mai Valentine. The blond turned his attention to his friend as he smirked lightly and nudged his arm.

"How are you and Rebecca doing?" He asked, draping an arm across Yugi's shoulders. A shrug was the first answer he got as he removed his arm and raised an eyebrow.

"Okay, I guess. Why do you ask?"

Joey stood there. To say that he was shocked was an understatement. It took a few minutes for the taller male to regain his composure and stared Yugi in the eyes.

"Is she doing somethin'?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Yugi sweatdropped and shook his head, moving back a bit from his friend so he could have at least a bit of space. He loved the blond like a brother but sometimes, Joey could be a tad bit dense and some times rather a bit annoying.

"No Joey. It's just that we're far away from one another and it's kinda hard to really do anything with each other, other than talk." He said, shrugging his shoulder's once more.

Finally giving up on the subject, Joey ran a hand through his messy hair and sighed himself. Moments later, Yugi's brother, Atemu, and his girlfriend and Yugi's childhood friend, Anzu, came out of their class. Atemu had an arm wrapped around the brunette's waist while she had her head on his shoulder and her arms about his chest. The two had been dating for about a year now and had their ups and downs. Putting a hand up to block the sun from his vision, Atemu looked at his brother and smiled softly as they came up to the two.

"And what are you two talking about?" He asked, removing his arm from around Anzu to hug his brother and shake Joey's hand. Yugi hugged Anzu and pulled away to look at his brother then turned his attention to Joey as he started to speak.

"Joey was just asking about how Rebecca and I were doing."

The slightly taller and older tri colored haired male made an 'ah' sound as he re-wrapped his arms around Anzu's waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. He laid a kiss on her cheek which only made the female giggle and turn her head to return the kiss on his own cheek.

"And how is that going for you?" He asked, nuzzling in to Anzu's neck as he waited for an answer.

Yugi's eye twitched as he then took a breath, "It's going okay. She's just wishing she was here right now and I kinda wish she was here right now."

"I still think she's doing something behind your back." Joey said before anything else could be said.

Groaning, Yugi slapped his forehead as he turned around to look at Joey "She isn't like that!" He snapped, glaring at the blond which only made the taller jump and hide behind a wall, earning a small "eep!" from him. Atemu shook his head and said something along the lines of "Don't glare too hard, you may break the wall."

Yugi laughed nervously and looked back at his older brother as he scratched his head, "Sorry. It's just that that was a touchy subject for me." He said, smiling to the other two.

Nodding his head in understanding, Atemu gently grabbed Anzu by the hand "Well, Anzu and I are heading back to the apartment and then going out tonight. So if you need anything, I have my cell. And Joey, Mai said to call her when you get home." He first looked to Yugi then to Joey who was still hiding behind the wall. The blond popped his head out and then came out, staying at least a few feet away from Yugi.

"How was she able to get you?"

"My cellphone. How else? A walkie talkie?"

Joey raised an eyebrow and then scratched the top of his head. Shaking his own head, Atemu sighed and just started walking, leaving the blond to his thoughts.

"Never mind it, Joey." He called out, interrupting the other.

"Wait a minute!!! I know the answer to that! And it's NOT A WALKIE TALKIE!!" Joey yelled, pouting afterward. The only thing he could hear from the other was a chuckle and a car door shutting closed.

With Anzu and Atemu

Chuckling as he opened the door on his side and sitting in the driver's seat, Atemu just shut the door as Joey shouted about the answer and the answer not being "a walkie talkie." Starting the car, Atemu just shook his head and mumbled about how dense the blond could be.

"Atemu?" Anzu's voice echoed in the silent air.

"Hm?"

"We need to talk."

This had caught is attention. Was it something he had done? Had he done something wrong? While these thoughts had been occurring in his head, Atemu jumped when he felt a hand on his arm. He looked at the female as she gently rubbed his arm, asking if he was okay.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking. What is it you wanted to talk about love?" He asked, looking back behind him to see if there were any cars and then started to pull out.

"Remember when I was sick? Or when I had gotten sick?"

He nodded, driving out of the student parking lot "Yeah, I remember. Why?" He asked, turning his head to glance at her.

Taking a deep breath, Anzu looked down at her lap as she fumbled her hands then looked at him, unsure if she should go through with telling him about the reason behind her illness. She turned her attention back to her hands and shook her head.

"Never mind it." She said softly, now looking out the window as she watched things pass by in a blur.

Atemu narrowed his eyes knowing fully well that she wasn't one to keep things to herself. He reached out and grabbed her hand holding it in his own as he rubbed the back of the pale hand with his tanned thumb. 'I wonder what's got her all quiet.' He thought, gripping her hand tightly yet gently.

"Anzu, talk to me. You know I told you that you can always tell me what's on your mind." Finally breaking the five minute silence, Atemu stopped at a stop light as he turned his attention back to the brunette for the time being. She smiled and nodded, gripping his hand in hers as she looked to him.

"Yeah, I know. But it's still a bit hard to talk about."

Bringing her hand to his lips, Atemu kissed the back of the pale skinned hand and took off when the light was green. Atemu arched an eyebrow as he heard the words come from her lips. A bit hard? Concern started to bubble up in his stomach as he tightened his grip once more. Worry was beginning to make it's way in to his eyes as he thought of what could be making the girl like she was.

Anzu felt Atemu tighten his grip on her hand as she did the same and looked at their hands. 'Will he be angry? What will he say?!' The thoughts ran through her head as she took another deep breath, a shaky one but a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"You remember when you asked me if I wanted kids." She asked, the 20 minute silence now broken.

"Yes...And I remember that you said you wanted to wait." He said, a questioning looking in his eyes.

Nodding, Anzu spoke once more "And we had sex two months ago." She whispered, tracing patterns on his hand. Atemu hesitated for a moment before he gave a response, "Did you go see a doctor?" The question was quiet but she could hear it. She nodded, hoping that this would go the way she wanted it.

"Yes."

"And?" He said, hoping that it wasn't anything life threatening.

A few seconds passed then she spoke, "I'm pregnant." The answer was spoken so softly yet it was blunt in some weird way. Slamming his foot on the break Atemu looked to the brunette with wide eyes.

Nope, wasn't expecting that to happen.

"Excuse me? You're what?!" Was all he could say.

"I'm pregnant."

Atemu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, excusing him self he opened the door and shut it behind him. All the brunette could see was one moment he was standing up right then the next, he fell to the ground. Lucky for them, they just happened to be stopped right by a store. She unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car, running to the other side calling his name.

"Atemu?!" She called out to him, but got no answer.

Yup, it was what she expected. He fainted.
