Title: Make Up?

Summary: After Yami nearly kills Kaiba, who threatened suicide during their duel, Yugi doesn't know which one he's scared of more: the game or his other self. Well, Yami might just have something to say about that.

Pairings: Puzzleshipping

Make Up

Yami nearly killed Kaiba. Yami nearly killed Kaiba. His other self nearly killed someone! Yugi hissed in frustration, tears at the brink of his eyes. He stopped Yami just in time but that didn't change what he was about to do, what he would have done. It was for you, Yugi. It was for your grandfather.

"Shut up," Yugi whispered, his eyes tightly closed as tears slowly fell. "You nearly killed him."

Silence followed.

Do you love him?

His eyes opened in surprise as he turned around but no one was there. He was in the darkness of his mind, waiting for his other half to appear. He could hear him, but he couldn't see him. Yugi stared at the darkness in wonder, thinking about what he was just asked. "No… you're wrong… I don't…"

Then why did you stop me?

Sadness overflowed him from the other side of the link. Yet, it wasn't the sadness of how he didn't get to murder rather than the reason he was stopped. For odd reasons, Yugi knew Yami felt sorry for what happened. That's when he felt the presence behind him. Yami was standing behind him in the darkness, holding out his arm yet too afraid to touch him, his own partner. Yugi couldn't face him though: not yet. Arms were on his shoulders, making him stand, but they weren't Yami's. They were from the outside, from the real world. While Yugi was trapped in his mind, something was going on. If only he could glance and see.

They're dueling for you. Anzu is dueling Mai to help.

Anzu… one of his best friends since he was little. Slowly, he snapped out of his mind, missing something Jounouchi just told him and glanced up. His other self was right. They were dueling. And, with that thought, he forced himself back into his mind, back into the darkness. Right now, he didn't need help from Anzu nor Mai. He needed help from his other self. From Yami.

I'm sorry, aibou.

Aibou. That was the first time he called him something like that. Partner. They were partners. Maybe that's why Yami let him take over, let him stop it. Because, from deep within the darkness, Yugi's light warned him to stop. And he did. Isn't that something worth trusting? Yami could have not let him take over. He could have killed Kaiba.

"You regret it," Yugi whispered, slowly turning around to face his other self. Yami's eyes widened slightly, but he shook his head.

No. I don't regret it because I've learned from it.

"And what did you learn?" Yugi's eyes cast away from Yami.

To never break your trust again.

Yugi looked back at him, staring wide eyed at his other self. Tears filling his eyes, he quickly stepped toward him and wrapped his arms around the taller boy's waist. He let out a sob, clinging to his other self. To his Yami. Yami blinked in shock and for a moment, he didn't know what to do. That's when he slowly wrapped his arms around the smaller boy and smiled softly.

"I don't love Kaiba," Yugi whispered. "I love you!"

Yami clutched him tighter.

Don't say that… not to me.

Yugi continued to hug him. "Why?"

Because I might not be able to control what I might do to you.

Yugi slowly gazed up at his other self before smiling. "Do whatever you want to me."

Little did Yugi know, he had just given his other self consent.

Yami smiled a little, placing one hand under his little aibou's chin. Softly, he lifted the smaller boys face to his. Yami paused, before pressing his lips to Yugi's.

Yugi stiffened, unsure of exactly what to do. His other self… was kissing him… and he slowly began to kiss back.

I love you, Yugi.

Alice: We were going to have a lemon but it seemed out of place in this little fluff shot.

Emily: Hope you liked it!

Océane: I was going to ruin Yugis innocence, but… (reccieves glares from other two)… I kindly stepped down from that position…

Alice: Here's what happens in the next PUPPYSHIPPING chapter:

Jounouchi could only stand there, his legs froze as Kaiba took five steps back. Only one step back to his death.
