Chapter 1

Ryou hung up the phone and stretched his arms over his head, yawning. The innocent looking white-blond looked at the phone and stuck his tongue out at it. "You are one extremely annoying piece of technology," he told the inanimate object.

He stood up from the chair that he had been sitting in and walked out of the office, heading towards his bedroom. The house was eerily quiet as he traveled down the hall, but that was to be expected at 3 a.m.

While he was walking Ryou was thinking of the reason why he was up at such an ungodly hour. He had been planning his boyfriend's surprise party, (his boyfriend was turning 25 in two days) and he had to call Egypt to invite some of their best friends.

Ryou grinned into the darkness as he remembered the conversation just moments before. He missed Yami, and talking to him and Marik had been great. He still couldn't believe that the two were engaged and planning the wedding for next winter. It completely blew his mind.

The three duelists had really run up a phone bill tonight. They had spent three hours planning both the party and the wedding. Ryou yawned again, all he wanted to do was crash into his bed and never wake up.

The small duelist walked into his bedroom and stripped to his boxers. He climbed into the large, comfortable bed and looked to his side. There was his boyfriend already sleeping peacefully. The white-blond leaned over and placed a feather light kiss on his forehead. "Night, Sweetie," he whispered.

Blue eyes opened slowly and stared into Ryou's own chocolate ones. "Where have you been?" Seto demanded, his voice still husky from just being woke up.

"Working," he replied without any hesitation at all, effectively throwing the CEO's own line back at him.

It was a strange reverse of roles. Usually Ryou was the worrying, dotting boyfriend and Seto was the workaholic who came to bed late.

"What the hell were you working on till 3 in the morning?" the brunet hissed, checking the clock.

"Stuff," Ryou replied sleepily, not wanting to talk any longer.

Seto was wide awake now. He hated people beating around the bush. He pulled himself into a sitting position. "Don't pull that shit with me Ryou," he growled, burning holes into the foreigner. "Tell me the truth or I'll... I'll... I'll tickle you until you piss your pants."

Ryou gulped. He hated being tickled, but he couldn't tell Seto the truth. The only choice left was to lie. The white-blond flinched. He hated lying but it was all he had left.

Taking a deep breath, Ryou spun his tale. "While you were at work today, I got a call. It told me that Yami had something important to tell me. So I waited until it was a reasonable hour in Egypt before I called." he stated bluntly.

"And what did Yami want with my lover?" asked Seto a little possessively.

Ryou giggled and placed a kiss on Seto's nose. He loved it when Seto got possessive. "Don't get so possessive Seto. It's not like Yami wanted me to dump you and jump in bed with him." Seto growled again, this time in the back of his throat. Ryou slapped him gently. "Stop it. Yami wanted to tell me that he and Marik are engaged. They are getting married next winter."

"Really. They must be happy," Seto told him thoughtfully.

"They are."

"But why were you on the phone so long?" he asked getting back to the topic of discussion.

Ryou sighed loudly. "Because they wanted my input on the wedding," he yawned. "Are we done now? I'm tired as sin and I just want to sleep."

Seto opened his arms and Ryou climbed in without any hesitation. He cuddled into Seto's chest and within moments he was fast asleep.

Seto looked down and kissed Ryou's forehead. "I love you," he murmured before he too fell into the slumber of unconsciousness.

When Ryou woke up the next morning the bed was empty. He had hoped that Seto would have at least stayed in bed a while longer, if only to keep him warm.

'Oh well,' he thought, stretching and going through his usual morning routine. The morning progressed as normal... that is until he heard his cell phone ringing. Usually people only called his cell if there was an emergency, so Ryou was a little anxious as he picked up.

"Hello, Ryou here."

"Ryou!" a voice exploded through the tiny piece of technology. "Have you heard the news that Yami and Marik are engaged?" Yugi squealed in delight.

Ryou winced as Yugi's voice broke the sound barrier, and let out a sigh of relief since this was no emergency. "Yugi. Yugi, calm down. Yes, I heard the news last night when I called them up and invited them to Seto's party tomorrow night."

"Are they coming?" Yugi asked, forgetting momentarily about the news of his yami's wedding.

"Yes, they are coming for the party. Actually, they should be in the air right now. They asked me to ask you if you would mind if they stayed with you and Bakura-

"Of course they can!" Yugi screamed into the phone without letting Ryou finish his sentence. Yugi's voice became muffled as he yelled at someone who was away from the phone. "'Kura, Yami and Marik are coming to stay with us for Seto's party. Isn't that great?"

Ryou couldn't hear his own yami's reaction, but judging from the squeal that Yugi released, the taller of the two had no qualms about the arrangement.

"So what time is the party supposed to start?" Yugi asked after his squealing was over with."

"I'm telling everyone to arrive here at 7. Seto and I have dinner reservations at 6, so we should be done around 7:30 or 8. That will give you guys at least half an hour prepare everything. Mokie will already be there, so just follow his instructions..."

"Ryou, you know that you are soooo super sweet! I can't believe that you are planning all of this." Yugi told him in a wishful tone of voice.

Ryou blushed and was glad that he was on the phoneso that the shorter duelist couldn't see his red face. "No I'm not..." he told boy on the other end of their conversation. "It's just that Seto has done so much for me and I want to do something special for his 25th birthday."

"Don't say such things," Yugi told the white-blond sternly. "If 'Kura did one tenth of the things that you are doing for Seto, I swear I could die an extremely happy man."

"Is that a hint, Yugi?" Ryou heard his darker half's voice float through the phone.

Yugi giggled as Bakura started to do something that Ryou really didn't want to think to hard about. The phone line went dead and all Ryou could do was stare at the phone while shaking his head.

The rest of the day was uneventful, and soon Ryou found himself at the airport picking up Marik and Yami.

As soon as the two tanned Egyptian men disembarked the plane, they jumped on Ryou with tremendous force. They both embraced him while talking a mile a minute about everything that had happened since they had last seen each other.

Ryou couldn't believe how good they both looked. The Egyptian sun had really done wonders for the two. "I'll have to keep you two away from Seto, or he'll forget all about me," he teased.

On the way to Yugi and Bakura's, Marik talked all about Egypt while Yami asked questions about what had happened in Domino since his last visit.

The child-like duelist was saddened when he dropped the bronzed Egyptians at Yugi's. He wanted to continue talking and maybe get them over to the Kaiba mansion, but he didn't want to risk the party being exposed.

Ryou arrived at the Kaiba mansion and as soon as he entered the house he was attacked.

A/N: so what did you think. You should drop me a review to tell me. I know that this is not a common pairing, but I thought it was just too adorable to pass up.

Peace out
