There are no amount of words that could describe the feeling I had when you turned your head and I realized it was you. "It is you!" Tears were instant. "Yugi!" It's really you!
"Téa?" I ran to you engulfing you in the biggest hug I've ever given, or have been a part of in my whole life. To hear your voice and to say my name again; To be in your arms just once more, words still can't describe anything like it. I was sobbing in your arms, but I didn't care. Let them watch. Let them look. Let them judge. It was ok as long as it was in your arms I was in.
You're amethyst eyes were the first thing I noticed when you turned. You're big, huge, marvelously, dreamy, purple eyes. Those, and your hair were probably the visual characteristics that were the most things that screamed you. I was never so glad to see them again, to see you.
"I thought we'd never see you again!" I said as I hugged you tighter.
"It's good to see you too!" You yelped. I had taken you by surprise, everyone really. I had just broken into a run and dived you into a hug. Plus, it was just something about me, I didn't hug much. Not that I didn't find them pleasant. I just didn't give them much. But this was an exception. You were an exception. I took in your smell, the warmth of your arms. I noticed how safe I felt in your arms and how when you eventually broke into a smile after the shock, how lovely it was when you smiled. Soft, comforting. All these little things about you I just noticed. The things that made you, you. I couldn't help but keep whispering "It's really you," afraid to be told I was wrong.
I didn't care at that moment how tight I held you. I just wanted to squeeze you harder. I wanted to make sure it was really you. Not the Pharoah. You. I wanted you! That was when I realized something.
I wanted to kiss you. Right there and then. I never wanted to be apart from you again. But I didn't. It wasn't the time or place. Or maybe I just chickened out. Afraid of being rejected, afraid of losing you again, afraid of making a bigger scene. So I didn't. I didn't have a chance to think about it again when Joey came running through.
"Alright, alright! Out of my way people! Where's my little buddy?"
I very slowly left the embrace of your arms, not wanting you out of my grasp. But Joey was just like me, he missed you. You had just lost your soul to that evil, weird, lizard Leviathan thing and we missed you. A lot.
"Yuge! Man did I miss this spiky little head." Joey laughed while putting you into a headlock.
"Hey Joey!"
I was pretty oblivious between the exchange that just happened between Joey and you. I couldn't stop starring at you, taking in how breathtakingly beautiful you were. How in the world was I so oblivious to how beautiful you were? This was beyond the good looks that I had noticed about you before. I broke out of my daze.
"The gang is back!" I exclaimed. Yugi was back and so was Joey.
"Don't forget about me!" Tristan yelled and ran up to us.
All together we were complete. Me and my boys. As we all joined for a hug, I couldn't believe how lucky I was to have everyone. Looking at a certain one in the gang, I admitted to myself, that I was lucky to specifically have Yugi as a friend too; and maybe one day hopefully as something more. I was never letting him out of my sight ever again.
