Hey, I'm back!! Finally after a year and a very hard year I am posting a new story.
With my divorce along with many medical and financial issues I haven't been able to concentrate on writing, but now hopefully most of that stuff is put behind me…way behind me. I had a little trouble with this first chapter, but I think I am finally happy with it. It starts off a little slow, but don't worry it will get more interesting as it progresses that I can promise you. Well enough of that on with the fic!
Disclaimer: Don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! sigh If I did Yami Yugi would have never went to the afterlife!
Chapter One
"Bakura for the last time will you quit poking me!" Yami yelled as he slapped Bakura's hand away.
"But Pharaoh I am so bored." Bakura whined as he leaned further back in the couch.
Yami huffed as he crossed his arms, mainly to protect his sides from being tortured any more than they already have and keeping a very sharp eye on the Tomb Robber that sat beside of him.
Just then there was a knock at the door and Yami stood up giving Bakura a weary glance wondering if there was anything he might try while his back was turned. Old habits die hard and Bakura had a more than difficult time of breaking them.
Yami slowly opened the door and saw a familiar blonde standing on the other side.
"Hey Yam's!"
"Hello Jounouchi."
Yami opened the door further and invited Jou in. As he walked into the living room followed by Yami he noticed Bakura sitting on the couch flipping through the TV channels. He would never in a million years get used to the idea of Bakura hanging around after what all he tried to do through the last seven years. Especially hanging around with Yami, who on several occasions tried to kill. He shook his head and turned to Yami who seemed to be looking at Bakura with narrowed, watchful eyes.
"So where's Yuge?" Jou asked trying to make the situation more comfortable.
"He and Ryou went to run some errands for grandpa." Yami said as he went and flopped down on the couch a good four feet away from Bakura.
Jou looked at the two yami's and cautiously sat down on the chair that was positioned so that he was facing them. He wasn't even chancing taking his eyes off the two never knowing what one or the other might do at any minute.
'Usually two yami's together are bad news, but they seem to be doing alright.' Jou thought as he looked at them and noticed that they seemed to be bored as hell. Minutes passed and Jou about jumped out of his skin when he heard one of them yell.
"Ra damn blasted clicker thing!" Bakura yelled and in a mist of black and purple the remote disappeared.
'Or maybe not.' Jou thought as he sat back further in the chair with an exasperated look on his face.
"Bakura that is the tenth remote this week grandpa is going to have a fit! How about I banish you to the Shadow Realm?!" Yami turned red in the face as he yelled at Bakura.
"Umm…that would be the fifteenth time this week and it is starting to mess with my head." Bakura said as he inched away from Yami.
Yami just glared at him from the corner of his eye.
Jou looked at both yami's and decided he would try and break Yami form his banishing mood. "So…umm…Yam's when are you getting hitched?"
"Hmm…Oh probably sometime this fall." Yami said as if he was calm as could be.
"That soon!" Jou exclaimed realizing that Seto and Yami had only been together for a little over a year.
"Yeah apparently Seto had already planned things out before he proposed to me."
"What if ya said no?" Jou asked.
"You baka, the Pharaoh wouldn't have said no." Bakura sat up and looked into honey eyes.
Jou looked from Bakura to Yami who just nodded at Bakura's statement.
"I missed my chance 3,000 plus years ago and was not going to let that happen again." Yami said as looked down at the floor memories of when he sacrificed his soul flooded his mind and Seth's sad tear-filled sapphire eyes. The last thing he saw before everything in his world went black.
Just then they heard the front door bust open and looked up to see who it was.
"YAMI I'M HOME!" Yugi yelled as he and Ryou walked into the living room.
"Hello aibou." Yami said as he seemed to break form his trance of staring at the floor and offered his hikari a soft smile.
"Hey Yuge."
"Hey Jou what's up?" Yugi asked as he sat in between Yami and Bakura.
"Not much jus' bein' bored. I thought we all might head to the beach."
"Sounds great! Who's all going?" Yugi asked as he looked at his best friend.
"Well so far Honda, Anzu, Mai and me."
"Come on Bakura let's go?" Ryou tried to pull him up.
"All right." Bakura sighed and grumbled something else but no one heard.
"I'll go grab my swim trunks!" Yugi exclaimed as he ran upstairs.
Yami followed after he told Jou to hang on for a second.
Yami walked into his room and threw on his crimson swim trunks and black tank top. He was about to call Seto when Yugi barged in and tackled him. They both fell and landed haphazardly onto the bed.
"Excited are we?" Yami laughed as he looked at Yugi who was smiling.
"Much!" Yugi exclaimed.
"I am so glad to have you back!" Yugi exclaimed as he held onto Yami tightly.
Yami just laughed and kissed Yugi's forehead. He had thought for sure that after the ceremonial battle that he would be stuck in the afterlife forever and never see his smiling hikari's face again or Seto's for that matter.
Yugi pulled back and looked at his yami with sparkling amethyst eyes and started to tickle his dark. Yami tried to get away from his light and as he did fell off the bed and landed hard on the floor.
"Why you…hikari get back here!" Yami laughed as Yugi squeaked and ran out of the room.
He ran down the stairs and past Jou and jumped behind the couch as he listened for Yami to come running down the stairs but only heard Jou laughing. He slowly peeked over the couch, but only saw Jou, Bakura and Ryou but, no Yami.
'Surely I would have heard him coming down the stairs.' Yugi thought as he started to get up. Just then he felt someone put there hands over his eyes.
"Hello aibou." A baritone voice purred in his ear and soon Yugi was sent into a fit of giggles as Yami attacked his sides.
"Ya…Yami…quit…s…stop!" Yugi giggled as Yami straddled his hikari's waist and continued to assault his sides.
Jou stood and laughed at the two. It was the first time he had ever seen the former Pharaoh act such a way and found it hilarious. The proud and refined Pharaoh was on his knees tickling Yugi and laughing.
Finally Yami stopped and stood up.
"Payback aibou." He said as he walked over and picked up the phone.
Yugi sat up and his face was red from laughing so hard.
"Who you calling?" Yugi breathed hard as he stood up.
"I am calling Seto to see if he and Mokuba want to go to the beach with us."
Yugi nodded as he walked over to Jou.
Yami listened to the phone ringing and finally someone picked up.
"Kaiba!"
Yami rolled his eyes at his koi's answer.
"Hey love I was wondering if you wanted to come to the beach with all of us?"
"All of who?"
"The whole gang, come on it will be fun. Plus you need a tan." Yami smirked.
"As long as we are left alone." Seto smiled as he said this.
"Sure whatever you say Seto."
"All right we will meet you there in about an hour.
"Great see you then." Yami hung up and looked over to Jou and Yugi.
"All right let's go!" Jou said as he jumped and ran for the door followed by Yami and Yugi.
At the beach Mai, Shizuka, and Anzu laid out in the sun to work on their tans, while Ryou was burying a sleeping Bakura in the sand. Yami and Seto watched as Yugi, Mokuba, Jou and Honda played in the water with a huge beach ball.
"Hey Yami come and join us!" Yugi yelled as he waved.
"Yeah you too Seto!" Mokuba yelled.
Yami and Seto smiled at each other and nodded as they stood and took off full speed running toward the ocean.
"Hey wait up!" Ryou yelled.
Bakura finally woke up and saw that he was buried up to his neck in sand.
"Shit!" He struggled and struggled as he finally wiggled free form his sandy prison.
"Ha! Hey hikari I've gotten out of sand burials many times!" He yelled as he too joined all of them in the water.
They all got together and began to hit the beach ball to each other and before long it became a battle. The game was like volley ball minus the net. Yami's team which consisted of Bakura, Ryou and Jou verses Mokuba, Yugi and Honda on Seto's team.
In the end Yami's team won as they all decided to get out of the water and sun bathe for a while.
They all walked over to where the girls were and laid their towels down.
Mai looked over to Yami who was on her left.
"You never did explain to us how exactly you came back? I mean Yugi beat you in a duel right? That is what Anzu told me. So shouldn't you have…you know stayed in the afterlife?"
After Mai had said this everyone sat up and looked over at Yami who still remained laying down with his eyes closed.
"No I guess I never did." He said as he realized he never really told anyone not even Yugi or Seto how he was able to come back.
"Well…how did you?" Mai said as she looked at the sexy man. Too bad he was gay.
Everyone was sitting up staring at the former Pharaoh.
Yami on the other hand remained laying down enjoying the sun.
"Well it is kind of a long story." Yami said.
"Well we have no where to be." Yugi said as he looked at Yami.
"Yeah and I really want to know." Seto said as he looked at his love who was lying beside him.
"It is kind of strange, but if you all are ready to hear it then I will tell you." Yami said.
To be continued….
