2. Matchmaking Schemes in Action

~Narrator's Pov~

Tea, Tristan, Serenity, Mokuba, Seto, Joey, Bakura, Ryou, Marik, and Malik are over at the Game Shop with Heba and Atem while Yugi went grocery shopping, and Yami tagged along to help Yugi out.

"Okay any suggestions," Heba requested of the others.

Every time Yami and Yugi are gone, the rest of the gang meet up and discuss about schemes on how to get Yami and Yugi together.

So far all of their plans have Yugi and Yami come close to kissing each other but just as their lips brush against each other, they stop and snap back out of it or one of them become jealous for some reason.


*Time Skip- 2 hours later*


"Hey guys," Yugi greeted them when he and Yami got back.

"What are you guys doing here?" Yami asked the others.

"Oh now that hurts Yami," Bakura teased.

"Yeah. Yugi gave us a nice and loving hey, and you just question us," Marik joined in the teasing.

Bakura wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist, when Yugi walked by, and pull Yugi down on to his lap then gave him a peck on the cheek.

"Thank you Yugi," Bakura said.

Yami became jealous at this and heatedly glared at Bakura while gripping the grocery bags that his holding.

Marik dragged Yugi into his lap and gave him a peck on the cheek.

"Yes thank you Yugi," Marik said.

Yugi giggled at their antics knowing that it was harmless. The others weren't bother by it, knowing it doesn't mean anything. Except for Yami who is seething with more jealously, glaring at Bakura and Marik, and gripping the grocery bags tighter.

Bakura and Marik took a quick glance at Yami before cuddling with Yugi. Yugi giggled at their cuddling.

Yami growled. He then dropped his bags then grabbed Yugi by the wrist, pulling Yugi away from them and into his arms. Effectively, the grocery bags falling from Yugi hands as well.

Yugi finally noticed Yami's anger. Yugi looked up at Yami.

"Yami what's the matter?" Yugi asked him innocently.

Yami stopped his seething and looked down at Yugi with a soften expression.

"Jeez Yami. Its just harmless teasing. Besides I'm satisfied with Ryou," Bakura said.

"And I'm satisfied with Malik," Marik said.

Yami gave a small growl at them before scooping Yugi into his arms, bridle-style. Yugi squeaked at what Yami did and wrapped his arms around Yami's neck. Yami carried Yugi into the kitchen and set him on one of the kitchen table's chairs then went back into the living room to retrieve the bags and placed them on the dining table.


~Yami's Pov~

"Yami are you okay?"

I looked over at Yugi when I re-entered the kitchen. I can see the concern in his eyes.

"Yeah. Why?" I sat the rest of the bags on the kitchen's table.

"Did I do something to upset you?"

I looked at Yugi, shocked that he would say something like that. I could see sadness in his eyes.

I ran over to Yugi and put my hands on his shoulders.

"Oh Ra no. No, no, no Yugi. Listen to me Yugi. You could never do anything to upset me, or me be mad at you, or annoy me, or anything else. I could never feel any negative feelings towards you," I soothed him.

"Are you sure?" Yugi asked, worried.

Yami gave him a reassuring smile, "Of course I am Yugi. I'm… just angry at Bakura and Marik from before. Nothing to worry about."

"Okay."

*Time Skip- Saturday*


Today is a weekend and the others decided to spend the day in the park with a nice little picnic to boot.

Yami and Yugi's are the first one's there because the others have to take care of a few things before they can arrive. Little did Yugi and Yami know is that the picnic and the day at the park is another scheme by their brothers and friends.

Heba, Atem, Joey, Seto, Malik, Marik, Ryou, Bakura, Tea, Serenity, and Mokuba will let Yami and Yugi go in the park by themselves while they hide in various parts of the park, and make this day seem romantic to Yami and Yugi.

Yami and Yugi just finished setting up the picnic site when both of them got text messages on their cell phones for the rest of the gang, and all the text messages say something along the lines that they couldn't come or couldn't make it.

Yugi just shrugged the texts off, not finding anything suspicious. But, Yami definitely is suspicious. He trusts his brother and friends; but, when he gets similar text messages from the rest of the gang that's when he will become suspicious. But won't say anything to Yugi so that way Yugi won't worry.


~With Atem, Heba, Marik, Malik, Bakura, Ryou, Tristan, Tea, Mokuba, Serenity, Seto, and Joey~

"You do realize my brother will become suspicious and demand answers from me once everybody else is asleep. Right," Atem told the others.

"Who cares as long as you don't tell him anything," Bakura said to Atem.


~Narrator's Pov~

Throughout the picnic the gang set little innocent traps around the park. The traps mostly consisted of the two tripping by invisible wire.

The first trap was miscalculated by having Yugi falling and Yami had to catch. Which coincidentally recreated the scene the other day when Heba tripped Yugi. Although it end with the same result: their lips brushed against each other, but no full on kiss, and separate before it can happen.

The second trap was perfectly calculated Yugi tripped and fall on his back with Yami falling down as well right on top of Yugi. But Yami put his hands out just in time that way he won't fully hurt Yugi by squashing him. Nothing happened except both Hikari and Yami blushed; and the others, except Yugi, can practically see Yami's none-so-o-innocent thoughts about Yugi running through his head.

The third trap have them both trip at the same time and both of them fell in the lake. Again nothing happen; but, the others, except Yugi, could see the none-so-o-innocent thoughts about Yugi running through his head. But those thoughts were more naughty then the pervious ones.

More traps were sprung but all that left them is that Yami and Yugi blushing, and giving Yami no innocents thoughts about Yugi.

Luckily, Yami close the link before Yugi can hear those thoughts.


*Time Skip*


The gang did more matchmaking schemes but nothing more happened; except that Yami's thoughts for Yugi kept on coming that he didn't want Yugi to find out about them. So, he kept the link closed until he control those thoughts.

Their friends are getting frustrated with how Yami or Yugi won't admit to anything.
