MBP: So... I've been talking about this story for almost 2 years with my friends and couldn't figure out a beginning...

Rini: She tried. Multiple times. And failed. I laughed.

MBP: That's because you're mean! Anyways, I own nothing. Please enjoy!

Chapter One

Things had been going pretty good for Yugi. He was still a little insecure about some things, but he had his friends to help him gain confidence, and a boyfriend who certainly helped in that regard.

Yugi still couldn't believe his luck when it came to romance. He didn't have any vindictive exes –though not dating before probably had something to do with that. Plus, his first boyfriend was considerate, funny, experienced…

Yes, Yugi could say with certainty that Yami was very experienced.

Still, something hadn't been quite right lately. Socially, he was fine; Yugi never fought with his friends if he could help it, so nothing was wrong there. His grades hadn't gotten any worse; actually, they'd improved slightly since Yami started tutoring him. When it came to his family, nothing had changed. Still lived with Grandpa, while his parents were goodness-knows-where using some mysterious cash fund they had.

He had just been so tired lately! It was odd, because he got plenty of sleep, but he just hadn't been able to stay awake. All too often, Yugi found himself dozing off before the sun set, long before he ever went to bed.

Plus, he'd had some problems eating lately. It wasn't too often, but sometimes he'd come downstairs for breakfast and get nauseas right away. He'd even throw up at those times, unable to eat anything.

And the hamburgers! They were his favorite, out of anything in the whole world, and Yugi just hadn't been able to get near them without hurling chunks. Obviously something was wrong.

Therefore, Yugi had made an appointment with the doctor to figure out exactly what was wrong with him. He hadn't had many medical problems in the past, so he wasn't too worried exactly.

Maybe I should have let Yami stay with me… Fidgeting in the waiting room, Yugi didn't like the strange looks the medical workers kept sending his way. With all that whispering, and the sympathetic glances, it had to be something bad, right?

Oh god, was he dying? It would be his luck, to be dying of some horrible disease right after everything seemed to be going right! Of course! He should have known! The universe refused to let him be this happy! Oh god, he was going to die and-

"Yugi Motou?"

-dead dead dead and never do all the things he wanted to do, and-

"Mr. Motou?"

Yugi's eyes were wide as he looked up at the concerned doctor, the panic wiping his name from his mind. How could he remember this man's name, when his death sentence was coming any second now? "Y-yes?"

"Let's talk in the office."

He was dying. How was he supposed to tell Yami? Or Grandpa for that matter? And his friends? He wasn't too worried about his parents; he hadn't seen them in years, but still…

The sanitary smell and cleanliness of the office didn't calm Yugi's nerves at all. How could he be calm at a moment like this? Oh god, he was going to start hyperventilating any minute now…

"Yugi, I need to ask you a question that might make you a little embarrassed…" The doctor didn't seem embarrassed at all as he sat across from the 16-year old boy, fingers linked calmly. "Have you been sexually active?"

Sexually… active? Why would he need to know… oh no. This was all Yami's fault. Yugi was going to die because of Yami! No!

By all that was holy, Yugi was going to take Yami with him if that was the case. He had a STD because of him, and Yugi was going to die and…

Trying to calm down enough to speak, Yugi took a deep breath, blinking hard. "W-what is it? Syphilis? Gonorrhea? It's not AIDS, is it?"

The doctor blinked back, silent for a moment before chuckling. How could he laugh? This was no laughing matter! Before Yugi could say anything, the doctor shook his head and looked at Yugi easily. "No, no, nothing like that! You're not sick at all."

"I'm not?" Yugi stared, his entire body slumping in relief. Well, it was amazing how much panic could exhaust you. "Then what's wrong?"

"Well… I'm not exactly sure how to say this but… your tests… they came back saying… you were pregnant."

Blink. Blink. "What? I'm a boy!" Yugi laughed, sure this was just a mistake. After all, how could he be pregnant? This was obviously just some mistake that could easily be cleared up.

"Yes, well… we just need to do a few more tests… make sure we didn't miss anything that might have hurt you."

That made sense. However, as the doctor kept talking, Yugi protested lightly. "Why do you need a blood and urine sample? Wouldn't one be enough?"

"Normally, but with this last mistake… we just want to be sure." The doctor handed him a small cup and gestured towards one of the doors. "There's a bathroom in there."

Tedious, but after all the panic, Yugi was ready to do anything to just get out of here and finish up. At least this would be something for him and Yami to laugh at later…

()~~()~~()~~()

One week later, Yugi found himself at the doctors again, much more relaxed. The last tests might have been messed up, but he should be getting the right results now. Plus, this time he had some emotional support in the form of Grandpa, so nothing could really shock him.

After an STD scare and a pregnancy mess-up, the universe couldn't throw anything else at him to send his life into chaos.

He was so wrong.

MBP: So... that's chapter one... Not quite sure how it turned out but my friend was laughing as she read it so...

Rini: She enjoyed your pain as she watched you writing it.

MBP: Shut up.

Rini: But it's more fun to tease you! It's awesome!

MBP: Whatever Rini... please review and let me know what you think! Thanks so much for reading!
