Hey Santa!


It was Christmas Eve in Domino City. Yugi was sitting alone in the house part of the Game Shop. His grandfather was in Egypt with Professor Hawkins, studying a newly discovered tomb.

It was a couple years after the Ceremonial Battle, and Atemu, the pharaoh's real name, had decided to stay on the mortal plain and was given his own body. Bakura and Marik had also decided to stay after their evil had been cleansed from them, though at times it seem like they still planed to take over the world.

But Ryou and Malik managed to keep their boyfriends, now husbands, under control, while Yugi kept his boyfriend, now husband, from strangling the enemies turned 'acquaintances' as Atemu put it.

Seto and Joey also got together, engaged, and married, and would still argue a mile a minute. The recent memory of Seto and Joey having their annual holiday argument was fresh in his mind and put a smile on his face. Somehow the strange couple managed to argue about 50 things in 20 minutes, a new record for the pair.

"If everyday was Christmas

If we could make believe,

If everyone would give a little more,

There'd be harmony."

Yugi hummed along with the radio. The song really fit his mood at the moment. Atemu had promised they would be together for Christmas, but his college classes had him working on an assignment over an hour away in Tokyo, and it was snowing pretty badly. A phone call two hours earlier had Yugi begging Atemu to stay in a hotel and not drive home in the storm.

"The city is covered in snow tonight,

Our child is fast asleep.

I'm waiting for him but he's no where in sight,

And I wonder if he can hear me."

Yugi smiled as he thought of Safiya, his and Atemu's two week old daughter. It had come as a shock when Yugi had become pregnant about nine months ago, but it was a welcome surprise for the newly married couple. Yugi glanced out the window and desperately prayed to Ra, and any other God or Deity that would listen, that for Safiya's sake, Atemu would come home safely.

"Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

I wish with all my might;

Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

Bring my baby home tonight."

Pulling his blanket tighter around him, Yugi stroked the fire and added another log before heading into the kitchen to make some hot chocolate, or tea. He hadn't made up his mind yet, so he would just put the kettle on.

"Why does it feel like it's colder than winter,

Even by the fire side?

My baby said that he'd be home for Christmas,

And now it's almost midnight.

Christmas lights up and down the street

Are such a sight to see.

But all the presents by the tree,

They don't mean a thing 'til he's with me.

Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

I wish with all my might;

Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

If you hear, me won't you hurry? Bring my baby tonight."

The kettle whistled, and Yugi pulled it off the flames. Adding a splash of milk to the hot chocolate powder in the bottom of his cup, Yugi added the hot water before adding whipped cream to the top, smiling as he remember some interesting times with is husband that involved whipped cream, fresh fruits, and chocolate syrup.

"I know your sleigh is full inside,

But won't you stop and give my baby a ride.

I'll be waiting by candle light this Christmas.

Ohh.

Christmas lights up and down the street

Are such a sight to see.

But all the presents by the tree,

They don't mean a thing, Santa, please here me."

As Yugi finished his chocolaty treat, he glanced at the clock. 11:55 pm. Almost midnight and Atemu would be safe and sleeping in a hotel.

"I wish you could be here." Yugi sighed as he glanced to the picture of him and Atemu on their wedding day. Atemu had somehow convinced Yugi to marry him in a beautiful basic white dress that was trimmed with gold and silver. They had also, by some miracle of Ra, gotten a veil in Yugi's hair as well.

The arguments they had of Yugi wearing a dress at the wedding were hilariously ridiculous. Atemu had finally won with a lot of, alone time, and promises that Yugi would be in charge of the honeymoon, which was a huge sacrifice on the ex-pharaoh's part.

"Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

I wish with all my might;

Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

If you hear me won't you hurry bring my baby tonight."

Yugi sighed again as he watched the clock count down the seconds to Christmas Day. He desperately wanted Atemu there, but his other half wasn't used to driving in the snow yet. The blizzard would make him spend Christmas and New Years in the hospital.

A soft knock brought Yugi out of his thoughts, making him turn to the stairway that would lead to the back door. Who in their right mind would be out in this weather?

Pulling his heat conserver around him again, Yugi padded down the stair and glanced threw the glass on the door before unlocking the door and yanking it open.

"Christmas lights up and down the street;

Presents by the tree.

I hear a knock.

Oh, can it be?

My wish is staring back at me."

"Hello Aibou." Atemu smiled as he walked threw the door, closing it behind him.

"You're here." Yugi whispered.

"Yes." Atemu took off his coat and pulled Yugi into a hug. "I promised, didn't I?"

"Yes." Yugi sighed before pulling back.

"What's wrong?" Atemu asked in alarm.

"Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

I guess you heard me tonight, yeah;

Hey Santa

Hey Santa (Santa)

I'm underneath the mistletoe with my baby tonight."

"We're under the mistletoe." Yugi giggled.

Atemu glanced up, and saw Yugi was right. Hanging mockingly above their heads was mistletoe.

"Then let's do something about it." Atemu said as he glanced back down at Yugi.

"What?" Yugi giggled more.

Atemu didn't answer, but leaned down the four inches in their heights and kissed his soul mate. The only person worthy of receiving such a gift.

"Merry Christmas, my light."

"It's Christmas Time.

Hey Santa."


Alverna: And that's it!

Atemu: When's the next one?

Alverna: Who knows? I'm focusing on "The Nutcracker" right now.
