I DON'T OWN YU-GI-OH OR TWILIGHT!

Sakura: I have important information for my readers. Next week I will be updating Truth or Dare, but the week after that I will not be able to update Twilight. Senior week will be happening that week and prom will be that weekend. So I will not be updating on my prom weekend.

Yumi: We hope you all understand. Sakura's senior activities are more important. It's her last year of high school!


Chapter 2- Friends

School ended at the perfect time for Yuugi. He quickly went to his locker and dumped all his books in it. The teachers had been kind for once and he got no homework. Putting on his jacket, Yuugi opened the door to the school to find it raining. He sighed and stood under the small canopy. "I knew I should have bought an umbrella."

The rain was coming down hard, getting everyone who ran out of the building soaked. Someone stopped beside Yuugi and put an arm around him. Yuugi looked over thinking it was Atemu, only to frown at who it really was. Mike smiled down at him.

"Need a lift sweet thing?"

Yuugi pushed Mike away and shook his head. "Not from the likes of you."

Mike took Yuugi's chin in his hand. "Don't be that way. I know you are hiding your true feelings."

Yuugi glared at him. "I will never love you. I would die before I dated you." He pushed Mike away again.

"Honey, I know you are just playing. Lots of books say that if someone hates you it means they really like you." Mike reached for Yuugi again. "Let's stop this game and kiss."

A glove covered hand grabbed Mike's wrist. "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

Mike glared at Atemu, while trying to free his wrist. "Hey freak, leave me and Yuugi alone."

Atemu let him go, before putting an arm around Yuugi. "It looked like Yuugi wanted you to leave him alone." He smiled down at Yuugi. "Need a ride home?"

Yuugi nodded and walked back inside the building with Atemu. Once they were sure Mike hadn't followed, Yuugi leaned against the door leading out to the student parking lot. He let out a sigh and looked up at Atemu. "I'm sorry about him."

"You don't need to apology. So who was he anyway?"

"He is my best friend's brother. He's been after me since the 9th grade."

Atemu titled his head to the side. "By the way you were acting, you hate his guts."

Yuugi nodded. "I don't like him, the way he likes me. I've heard rumors about how he has sex on the first date. Téa proved some of them true, so I stay away." He sighed. "I can't hang out with Téa anymore without him following."

Atemu's eyes softened and he lifted Yuugi's chin with his hand. "Listen, if you ever find yourself in danger you can always turn to me."

Yuugi smiled. "Thank you. This is looking like a wonderful friendship."

"Friends?" asked Atemu.

Yuugi looked at him confused. "Don't you have friends?"

Atemu shook his head. "No, I've always been a loner. My family is all I really have."

"I'll be your friend," Yuugi stated. "This Saturday I can show you around town."

Atemu pulled Yuugi close in a hug. "I would like that a lot."

Yuugi sighed and took in Atemu's wonderful scent. He smelled like exotic spices and the warm desert air. Atemu pulled him back to earth, when he let Yuugi to.

"Still need that ride?" questioned Atemu.

Yuugi opened the door behind him a little, before nodding. The rain didn't look like it was going to let up soon. Atemu pulled out his keys, before opening the door all the way. Only a few cars were left in the parking lot and when Atemu hit a button on a small remote; Yuugi saw a silver Volvo light up three rows back.

Atemu took off his jacket and put it over Yuugi's head. "We don't need you sick."

"But what about you?" asked Yuugi.

Atemu laughed. "Don't worry about me. I'm as tough as nails." He took Yuugi's hand and ran beside him as they ran for the car. Once inside, the two couldn't help, but laugh at how wet they were. Yuugi gave back Atemu's jacket and turned on some heat.

"Nice car."

Atemu smiled, while driving toward the address Yuugi told him. "It's my brother's car. My father is working on getting me one."

Yuugi leaned back in the seat and relaxed. "It's still nice. I haven't even gotten my permit yet."

Atemu chuckled. "Maybe I could teach you sometime?"

Yuugi nodded and watched a few buildings go by, before they were at the Kame Game Shop.

"Nice place."

Yuugi smiled at the building. "It's is nice. My grandfather built this place after my mother was born. I've lived here all my life." He turned to Atemu. "Do you have a cell phone?"

Atemu nodded and handed it over. Yuugi put in his cell phone number, before giving it back. "If you have any questions about Domino, please call me."

Atemu took the phone and ruffed Yuugi's hair. "Thanks, so I'll see you tomorrow?"

Yuugi nodded, before getting out of the car. He ran into the shop and turned back to wave, but Atemu had already left. Smiling he leaned against the door. His life was looking better by the second.


The next day was bright and sunny, which put Yuugi in a good mood. He got dressed, ate, and then headed to school in a hurry. Going by his locker really quickly to avoid Mike, he almost ran to homeroom. He knew Atemu wouldn't be there since he was a senior, but Yuugi was hoping his first four classes would go by quickly.

Lunch time came around quickly, but Yuugi couldn't find Atemu. Atemu, then didn't even show up to Biology. Yuugi was beginning to worry. As he walked home, he was thinking about calling Atemu, only to remember that he didn't have his number. Atemu had his number, but he wasn't sure he would call.


For the rest of the week Atemu still didn't show up. By Friday night Yuugi laid in bed worried it was his fault. He believed he might have come on too strong. Atemu had been the best thing ever to happen to Yuugi and he felt like he couldn't lose him.

Yuugi's cell phone rang and he was quick to answer it. "Hello?"

"Hey Baby!" Mike said on the other end. "I called to see if we were still going out tomorrow?"

Yuugi growled. "You never asked me! Also I'm not your boyfriend!" He hung up, before Mike could say another word. "Oh I hate that boy so much."

Yuugi's cell phone rang again. "If that is Mike again, I'll kill him." He answered his phone. "Hello?"

"Hey Yuugi!" Atemu replied.

Yuugi's mood turned happy. "Hey Atemu! Where have you been all week?"

Atemu chuckled. "Sorry about that. Turns out I did get sick because of the rain. I got a really bad headache and my chest was hurting me."

"Told you!" Yuugi replied playfully. "So why did you call?"

"I was wondering if we were still going to town tomorrow. You promised to show me around."

Yuugi's eyes lit up. "Of course, can you pick me up around noon tomorrow?"

"Of course I can." Atemu chuckled. "It's a date."

End of Chapter 2


Sakura: Alright, so I don't get asked this a million times. Atemu will drive the speed limit, until Yuugi finds out his a vampire. Also Atemu isn't cold to Yuugi or anyone else as long as his skin doesn't touch anyone. If he has clothes and his gloves on he is safe.

Yumi: If you have any other questions, please ask!
