Hello everyone and sorry for taking this long to upload. I just need to get a new beta. So you can say hi and thanks to King of Doors, who kindly fixed all my typos^^

Yami didn't get a chance talk to Yugi during that day. He didn't want to tell Bakura and Malik that his riding teacher was a guy and also looked better than several girls in their courses. Uh, no, not that way! Yami glared at his own reflection at the mirror in the school's bathroom and sighed.

Today was Thursday and his second riding lesson would be in the same time on Saturday morning. Yami dragged his fingers through his hair. At least his muscles didn't hurt anymore and he would definitely stretch straight after that lesson. He didn't want to make that mistake again!

Yami sighed and looked at his cell phone's clock.

Today's final period started in fifteen minutes. It was an elective course about famous lawyers and their cases and Yami liked it a lot. The course was giving them their first hands on experience with cases, or at least as hands-on as it would be in school. During the next summer they would do some training in actual workplaces and Yami couldn't wait. He wanted to be done with school and finally do that which he wanted to do. Ah, he needed to start asking the training places before all the good ones were taken.

Yami turned the tap off and walked out the door, opened it. Immediately he froze still and just stared. Yugi stood at the middle of the hallway and waved to someone far end to it.

"You're welcome!" Yugi shouted, just as cheerful as he had been at the stable. "It wasn't a big deal."

"What are you doing here?" Words that were running away from Yami's lips caused Yugi to almost jump out of his skin and he turned towards him. His smile faded a bit in confusion, but then it lit up again.

"Yami!" he greeted him."I didn't know that you are in the University too."

"I wasn't aware that you are here," Yami answered bluntly, remembering all too well Monday's conversation between Yugi and his friend.

Yugi tilted his head to side and looked at Yami curiously.

"So, you are studying…?"

"Law," Yami answered and he raised his eyebrow."And you?"

"Ah, just cultural history," Yugi waved his hand.

Cultural history? Yami hadn't had expected that one. Veterinarian or something that focused on animals, but history? He started to ask about it, but Yugi was faster.

"Are you coming again on Saturday?"

Those bright amethysts eyes stared at Yami like there wasn't a tomorrow.

Yami growled at that.

"I wasn't giving up if you were expecting that."

"Why would I do that?" Yugi looked confused.

"I heard you," Yami told him, glaring at Yugi's asking eyes, daggers in his gaze."On Monday."

"Huh?"

"At the cafeteria," Yami specified, becoming a bit irritated.

Yugi was silent awhile, and then he seemed to get it.

"Ah, that conversation! I didn't know that you were there, but we weren't talking about you."

Yami raised his eyebrow, suspicious and Yugi nodded, smiling a little.

"It was all about some new guy in our Ancient course. He was so lost… I don't even know if he was even studying anymore."

Yami heard sympathy in Yugi's voice and finally nodded simply.

"Okay."

There was a tense silence and Yami shuffled his weight from leg to another.

"So, about Saturday…" He gulped. "I will be there."

"That is wonderful Yami," Yugi praised him. There was a little hesitation and Yami noticed that Yugi was scanning his clothing that were all but cheap brands."Hmm, are you okay being with the little girls?" Yugi bit his lower lip and looked quite unsure.

"Yeah, I will be," Yami answered little too quickly and Yugi raised his eyebrow at him. Yami mentally cursed that fucking bet and Bakura and Malik.

"If you say so," Yugi nodded and hesitated a little. "I need to go. My school day is over."

Yami nodded and looked at Yugi when he started walk down the hallway. Yami hesitated biting down his lower lip.

"Yugi!" He called after him and Yugi stopped, turning around.

"What?"

Yami cursed mentally.

"Please, don't tell anybody."

Yugi looked totally puzzled.

"Why would I need to tell? It's not my business." He lowered his gaze."It would be nice to be able to speak about the horses with someone outside the stable."

"You can't speaks with your friend?" Yami sounded just as surprised as he felt. Yugi laughed a bit.

"Ryou loves animals, but the horses are too big for him. He didn't really scare them but it was close, so..." Yugi sighed. "I really need to go now. See you at Saturday!"

He waved his hand to Yami and jogged down the hallway. Yami just stared after him, speechless. For some odd reason, he just could imagine that if those girls from the stables had been here now, they would be melted on the floor.

Later that evening, Yami's phone rang. He stared at the familiar name on the screen and sighed.

"Yeah?" he answered with a very annoyed voice. There was sort silence at the other end and then one short chuckle.

"Some little birds chirped that you have got a new hobby," his cousin, Seto, smirked and Yami cursed mentally.

"So, you and Bakura have started gossiping like old ladies?" Yami mocked back, grinded his teeth. "I thought you didn't speak to each other."

"We don't," Seto answered. "I just got some very informative text messages from him..."

"I don't want to know what you think when you're masturbating, Seto," Yami interrupted him. Seto just laughed.

"Don't be so angry, cousin," he teased. "At least you have plenty of girls around you..."

"Speak for yourself, Priest," Yami snarled back. It did very little to Seto's laughing.

"So, Yami," Seto smirked. "Are you planning to participate in the riding competitions?"

"Riding competitions?" Yami startled. There were… competitions?

"You didn't know there were competitions? Such a competitive person like you? Shame… But I'm sure you would lose eventually."

"I don't lose ever!" Yami snarled back.

"Are you sure?" Seto smirked. "Maybe you could participate in some of those pony races when you are stop falling off..."

"Shut up," Yami snarled.

"Whatever," Seto chuckled. "If I were you, I'd have been watching some videos about your new hobby, but you have always liked running straight into the wall head first."

Yami knew that Seto liked teasing him, but the guy could be even worse asshole than Bakura when he felt like it!

"I know what I'm doing, cousin," Yami snapped back.

"Yeah yeah," Seto waved his words off. "I need to go. This company didn't run itself."

"Yeah," Yami rolled his eyes.

"Bye."

He dropped his cell phone back the table and stretched a little. Seto was always busy with his gaming company. Being CEO such a young age was difficult, but the challenge suited Seto very well. At least then when he wasn't being a total asshole.

Yami leaned back and stared at the ceiling. Seto's words echoed in his mind. A riding competition? He didn't know there were people that could actually race with those animals. He lowered his gaze and started up his computer. This was a good time to solve some mysteries. Before he looked totally freaking stupid in front of Yugi.

Google's page opened in front of him and Yami started looking some answers. Even the simplest searches found him multiple links and Yami cursed. There were riding competitions even in the Olympics? Nice… And there weren't just one type of competition with horses… Yami stared at the list of different types of races around a world. Gallop races, trot races, jumping competitions, dressage competitions – what even was that? - and the list went on and on… He started to get a serious headache. Now it was so clear why Seto had been so amused by his ignorance.

Yami shut down all the pages and sighed. It would be nice to participate in some competitions. It couldn't be that difficult! Just hard training. Maybe he could ask about it from Yugi. That little guy probably hadn't ever competed, but he could give Yami some tips.

He smirked at his own thoughts. Bakura's and Malik's faces would be priceless.

Thanks for reading. Be kind and drop a review so I know what you like^^
