-- 10 years later --

Satorious was walking down the halls when a couple people ran past him saying something about a big duel between Zane and someone else.

'Zane Truesdale? The famous duelist? This I gotta see.' Satorious said as he turned around and followed everyone else. When he got to the duel arena he saw Zane dueling with another boy. The boy had grayish hair and bright blue eyes. He was tall and thin enough to have feminine curves. 'That boy... he looks familiar. Where have I seen him before?' He thought just as the boy got thrown backwards as his lifepoints went to zero.

"You didn't think you were actually going to win against me, did you?" Zane asked.

"I will win against you one of these days! You can count on that!" The boy said.

"Don't let him get to ya, bro! Like you said... you'll win someday!" Said a girl who looked just like him.

"Thanks, Mel!"

"No problem, Aster!" She said, and they got up and walked away.

Satorious couldn't believe his ears. 'Aster?!' He thought. 'That guy can't be the same cute, little boy I saved from my dad's guards 10 years ago, could it? I can't believe my eyes!' He thought, and followed Aster and Melody out onto the coartyard and saw them sit on the fountain.

"You know what today is, Melody?" Aster asked.

"Um... May 23rd."

"Well... yes that, but today is also the day that I met Satorious 10 years ago." Aster said, and Satorious was shocked to hear this.

'He still remembers me?' Satorious thought. 'Wow! I mean... I remember him too, but I didn't think he would... but I'm glad he did.'

"Do you ever stop thinking about him?"

"No. How could I? He was in such a bad shape when we met. Who's to say he's still alive. He may have died for all we know, and I didn't even get a chance to thank him for saving me that day."

"Aster, I don't mean to sound... mean, but I think that you have got to let him go and move on. Try getting a girlfriend."

"I don't want a girlfriend."

"Oh, that's right. You're gay." Melody said, then thought for a minute. "Get a boyfriend then!"

"I don't want a boyfriend either."

"Then, what do you want?"

"I want my best friend back. Sure I only knew him for a little bit before we got seperated again, but I still think he's the closest friend I've ever had."

"Aster... you're just hurting today. It'll be alright. It always is."

'Hm... maybe I should surprise him, but not now. I'll wait until later.' Satorious thought, and walked away.

-- That night --

Melody was in Aster's room, talking to him.

"Listen to me, Aster." Melody said. "For the past 10 years, all you've ever do on this day is moan and groan about Satorious. You hardly knew the guy."

"Can you just leave me alone?"

"Fine. Whatever. I can't take this anymore. I'll see you in the morning." She said, and walked out of the room.

"Okay." Aster said. A minute later, there's was a knock on the door, and he went up to answer it. He saw Satorious standing there, but obviously, he didn't know who he was yet. "Can I help you?"

"Yes. You're that boy who dueling against Zane earlier, right?"

"Yes. And I know... I sucked."

"No. I don't think you sucked at all. In fact, I think you've got more potential as a duelist than anyone else here. Not many people are willing to go against a champion like that. I thought it was very brave of you." Satorious said, and Aster smiled at him.

"Thank you. My name's Aster Phoenix by the way." Aster said. "Would you like to come in?"

"Now?"

"Yeah. You don't have to if you don't want to, but-"

"No, no, no. I'd like to. Thank you." Satorious said as he entered Aster's room.

'I know I shouldn't be inviting him in, but... there's something about him that just tells me that he's safe.' Aster thought. "Um... would you like something to drink?"

"No, no. That's alright." Satorious said as he looked around the room.

"Well... I think you should at least tell me your name." Aster said, but instead of a reply, Satorious turned to face him and raised an eyebrow. That's when Aster saw who he was. "Satorious?" He asked, and Satorious smiled. "My Gods! It's really you!" He said as he glomped him, making them both fall back on the bed.

Neither of them even realized what position they were in until they stopped laughing. Aster was now straddling Satorious' hips, and had his hands on both sides of Satorious' head.

"Oh... um... sorry 'bout that." Aster said with a blush as he got off of Satorious. "It's just that. I haven't seen you in so long, and I was glad to see you."

"It's alright, Aster. I'm glad to see you too." Satorious said. "Oh, and thanks for never forgetting about me. I've never forgotten about you either. You're always on my mind."

"Me too." Aster said, and before he knew it, he was wrapped up in Satorious' embrace.

"I've missed you."

"I've missed you too." Aster said as he hugged Satorious back. "You still have that bastard of a father?" He asked, and Satorious scoffed.

"Yeah, but this time, I left the mainland completely and came here. He still thinks he can run my life."

"Well, it's good to see you out of your cell and in real life like the rest of us."

"And I really owe it all to you."

"Me?" Aster said as he broke the hug, but kept his arms around Satorious' neck. "What did I do?"

"Because of your inspiration, I tried 120 percent harder to get out, and I finally succeded. Granted, it took me 5 years, but I did it."

"5 years? So, where have you been these past five years?"

"Here. Hiding out."

"Why didn't you ever try to contact me to tell me you were still alive?"

"I tried to. I must of tried hundreds of times." Satorious said, and Aster laughed. "What?"

"You're definitely the Satorious I knew. You haven't changed a bit." Aster said as he lightly cuddled into Satorious again, making him smile.

Suddenly the door opened, and Melody walked in. "Who's in here?" She asked, and looked at the two people sitting on the bed. "Satorious?"

"You recognize him the second you see him?"

"You didn't? He looks exactly the way he did 10 years ago. Granted that he's taller now... and more muscular... and... and... damn! You're hot!" Melody said, and Satorious looked at her strangely, but then smiled.

"Thank you... um... I never did catch your name."

"Melody! Melody Phoenix at your service, Mr. Sexy- I mean- Mr. Satorious!" She said with a cheesy smile.

"Melody, I think you can stop calling him sexy and hot now."

"Jealous, bro?" Melody asked with a smirk.

Aster then got an idea when he heard his sister's phone ring. "Is something ringing?"

"My Marik-baby's callin' me!" Melody said, and left the room.

"Ookay." Satorious and Aster said at the same time, then looked at each other and laughed.
