Time frame: one year post-Ceremonial Duel though it makes no reference to it

Setting: Muto house/Kame Game Shop

Characters: (fem!Yugi)Yumi, Tea, Tristan, Joey, Rex, Weevil, Mako and Solomon Muto though Yugi's friends and grandfather don't come in until later


Yumi looked up from the counter where she had began to work on her homework during the slow work day, Joey and the others were upstairs getting/making snacks. Rex, Weevil and Mako were pushing each other in an attempt to get to the counter first. Surprisingly, Weevil got to the counter first.

"My queen." He said, looking at Yumi with a smile as he panted. He reached into his pocket and pulled something out. It looked like a golden insect on a bracelet.

Yumi smiled awkwardly. "Hi, Weevil." She was still too polite to tell him to leave her alone, but that was why Tea and the guys were usually around, to keep them away or at least at a distance. She blushed at the sight of the bracelet. "Weevil, it's-"

Weevil was pushed out of the way by Rex, who set a plush tyrannasuarus rex on the counter. "For you, my kind and lovely tryantess." He said proudly, pressing it into her hands. "A gift to please you." He unzipped the back of the plush to reveal a small box that had two earrings in the shape of t-rex feet.

Yumi was blushing even darker. "Thank you, Rex." She set the plush beside the bracelet from Weevil.

As Weevil was getting back up, he was pushed back down and Rex was shoved to the side by Mako. The 'freaky' fish guy placed a necklace of seashells on the counter and opened the large shell to reveal a ring with a gemstone. "This is for you, my stunningly beautiful sea goddess."

Yumi couldn't find it in her to speak. She was too embaressed and overwhelmed because of this nearly weekly occurance.

"What do you three think your doing?" The booming voice of Solomon Muto made them all turn to face him and the others, Tea holding a pitcher of ice water, Joey holding a plate of sandwiches and Tristan had a some cups for the water.

"I was giving my goddess a gift." Said Mako. "One as beautiful as she."

"I wanted to show my love to my queen." Weevil said, pushing his glasses up.

"My tyrantess was in need of my loyal affections." Rex replied, straighening his hat.

Solomon held his hand out towards the counter. "Joey, be a good lad and hand me the broom."

Joey grinned, setting the sandwiches on the counter before passing the older Muto the broom. "Send them running, Gramps."

Solomon did indeed send them running, out of the Game Shop, covering their heads. "I TOLD you to stay away from my granddaughter!" He yelled, standing on the doormat as the boys ran away.

Tristan whistled, looking at what they gave Yumi. "Wow Yu, they did not hold back this time."

Yumi groaned. "I know.."
