lilbutterfly315: I'm starting to doubt my abilities about continuing this story.


I woke up with a very unpleasant feeling. Maybe it had to do something about letting Yugi leave. That must be it. I slid up on my bed to fully sit straight. I rubbed my temple to ease the pain in my head. Currently, I wasn't in the mood to get up or even wake up at the matter. I slide to the edge of the bed and placed my foot on the cold tiles. Slowly, I walked to the glass window. It's a beautiful sunny day while I'm a stormy mess. Go figure. I let out small groan when I heard a loud banging on my bedroom door.

"Come in." I held in the urge to not shout across the room in the morning.

I didn't look at the person that entered my room. I can already see who it was on the glass window. Seto was standing far from me along with Joey, who was out of breath, and has a small grin on their faces. That didn't fix my mood at the moment. I didn't say anything because I don't want to deal any more problems as it is. I am really impressed on how I can last this long without blow my horns.

"What is it?" I asked sharply.

"We know where Yugi is staying." Joey said.

He was trying to hold back his excitement inside. You can see because he hasn't dropped his smile since he was in here. It was getting to me. Other than that, I felt joy and excitement inside me. Maybe equal enough to match Joey or even more. I wanted to jump from wall to wall, but I can't break my composure. I had a serious face on with my arms crossed upon my chest. I moved to a chair nearby my bed and sat down. I offered them to do the same on the bed since they were closer, Joey accepted, but Seto didn't. I blame his pride and his 'cool' personality. If only Joey can do something about that.

"We should head down there and demand Yugi." Joey shouted. He had his determine face on. There was nothing stopping him now. Not a way that I know of.

"No. We all stay here." I spoke calmly.

I can see Joey's smile drop down to the ground. I can understand hearing something like that for a guy who flew all the way from Japan to America to get back the love of his life back. But I know that Yugi wants some space to think. And what we are doing is almost like stalking, another reason Yugi might refuse to go with us. I still trust Yugi to not do anything that would betray me again. I hope. I'm still jumpy on the Atemu accident.

Joey's eyebrow was starting to twitch. He was annoyed, I can tell with the irritated face he was pointing out at me. It's kind of funny if you think about it. I let out a cough to calm my laughter.

"Yami, ya can't be serious. We need to get Yugi. Now!" I can clearly hear the impatience in his voice.

"No. We wait till Yugi is ready." That was the only thing we can do. The only thing I can do.

I placed my heart in Yugi's hand, even if he doesn't know it, and I tend for it to stay there. Sadness was overwhelming my mind and body. I stood up and walked to the glass window. My eyes trailed into the clear sky, passing by the solid glass. My eyes may be on the beautiful sky, but my mind is on Yugi. Everyday, Yugi is always in my mind. Never once have he left my cold chamber that I call mind. And I don't count on letting go either.

"Yugi need some space from all of us to think." That was the best thing to do. Somehow, Joey doesn't agree with me.

"What he need is goin' back home." He shouted out with confidence.

"What if he refuses?"

"We drag 'im home."

"What if he runs away from us when we bring him back?"

Joey had something going on, but stopped to realize what I said was true. The truth hurts, it really does. I was beginning to feel faint. I reached to my face and rubbed it gentle with my hand. I've been acting weird lately since this morning. I must still be tired if that's the reason. Sensing this, Joey got up and helps me to my bed. Once I was lying on the bed, Joey and Seto left for me to rest. My body was moving by itself. My hand reached to the drawer and pulled out a picture. It was the ripped out picture of Yugi. Bad thoughts were entering my mind as I look at Yugi's smiling face. I kept saying 'I'm sorry' over and over in my head to somehow lessen the pain in my chest. It must of slip out when I gave Yugi his journal back. Tears were swelling up so quickly.

"What if he refuses?" I asked myself.

"What if he runs away from us when we bring him back?" I repeat what I said to Joey.

What if it was true? What if this was all a waste? More questions crawled in my head that made my tears drip down my cheeks. My heart ached more than before. Why does it hurt to love? Was love even worth it if I can't have Yugi? I looked at the picture again.

"I miss you so much." I said to no one, but to the torn picture.

I closed my eyes to let all the tears drop down. Keeping my eyes closed, I fell asleep.

I woke up to find myself in a plane. Wait, when did I get in the plane? I looked around to find anything familiar. I saw the boy in the café that appeared like Yugi. He had his chin on his hand, staring out of the window.

"What's going on?" I asked him carefully.

"We cut our honeymoon short, remember?" He turned to me.

Honeymoon? When did I get married? And why wasn't it Yugi that I was married to? Yugi, what happened to him?

"Where's Yugi?"

"He must be at home taking care if his childrens. Remember?"

When did Yugi decided to have children? He wasn't supposed to give birth at all. This can't be happening, it just can't. If he gave birth, then who is the father?

"Who's the father again?"

"Atemu. They got married five years ago."

F-five years ago! I feel slightly off balance. I can't believe Yugi would do something like this to me. This is a complete betrayal in my part. He's going to get it.

"Don't worry, we'll see them when we land." Heba gave me a reassuring smile.

This didn't provide me much of the help I needed. I wanted Yugi, not Heba. But you know, Heba can be a perfect substitute for Yugi. They have the same height, hair, eyes, and even personality. They can even be twins for crying out loud. Quickly, I thought of a plan to get Yugi.

We landed after half an hour later when I planned my thoughts together. Heba took hold of my hand and dragged me to the entrance of the airplane station. The moment we walked pass the door; I saw something unpleasant, or someone at least.

Atemu was standing where he was, minding his own business, when he saw Heba and I. I didn't want to see the guy that stole and marry the one I love so much. It was humiliating for me to stand in front of him. He offered a handshake, but I glared at him. As a result, I got an elbow in my ribcage. It wasn't a nice feeling, I can tell you that.

"Behave yourself." He warned me in a whisper.

After our small talk was over, we placed our baggage in the trunk and took our place in the car. The ride seem like forever to me. Atemu and Heba talked throughout the ride while I thought about Yugi and his 'kids'. They sometimes involved me in their conversation once a while. We all arrived at Atemu's house when I was about to bang my head to the window. I was the first to have left the car. I stretched my arms and breathe in the outside air that I needed. Heba started to call my name so I can help him with the luggage. Trying to hide my face of annoyance, I walked over to help him and Atemu. We were all near the doorsteps when we got out the entire luggage out. Atemu turned towards us.

"Yugi is very sensitive right now so be careful." He started till his phone rang. After he was done, he had a frown on and let out a sigh.

"I need to go back to work. Urgent matter."

Heba told him that it was okay and that we understand. Atemu left right after that. At least he won't be in the way. For now that is. Heba already rang the doorbell. We waited when a boy that looks like he was in teenage years opened the door with a smile.

"Uncle Yami, Aunty Heba welcome back." This must be one of the kids Yugi had.

"It's good to be back Mathew." Heba greeted back. So that's his name.

"Wait here, I'll get mom." He ran off upstairs when he let us in.

Heba and I moved the luggage inside the house. We took our shoes off to show our respects. We stood where we were when Yugi arrived. A girl was with him along with that Mathew boy. Yugi didn't move when he laid his eyes on us. So did I, I felt my heart skip a beat and forgot how to breathe. Even in old age, Yugi still appear purer as he was when I in the millennium puzzle. I wanted to walk over to him and hold him again, but I couldn't. I won't betray Heba for my own selfishness. After he recovered from the shock, he greeted us and welcomes us in.

Yugi had a hard time finding the guest room till Mathew showed us. Heba was downstairs with the rest while I unpacked the luggage. I was not happy about it either. I went downstairs to the others when Yugi decided to go rest. Just when I have a chance with him, he is off somewhere. My sadness began to grow. Heba, his kids, and I asked of there was anything he needed help with, but Yugi refused and walked back to his room. Telling Heba that I was going to see if Yugi was all right, I left him in charge to watch the kids. I had a difficult time searching for Yugi's room especially when the house is huge. In the end, my search was rewarded.

I noticed that Yugi was asleep when I entered the silent room. I stood on the side of the bed next to him. He was so beautiful, so precious.

"Yugi." I called out.

I stroke his tender cheeks. If only things were different when we were together in the past. If only I can take it all back. I'm willing to take any chances to have you with me. I felt Yugi move a bit. I remembered the kiss I forced on him when I took him to the hotel. If only I could do it again in a different manner. I felt tempted on kissing those fragile lips. I lean down a few inches from his lips. I was so close where I can feel him breathing. I shut my eyes and lean in closer to engulf those angelic lips. A moan was his response to this. So I took it as a yes to continue. We departed when air was required. I saw Yugi sitting up on the bed. I was caught in his stare. My heart started to beat faster. Those beautiful amethyst eyes still have its toll on me.

"Why?" He asked me.

"Why what?" I asked in return. I didn't understand what he was asking me.

"Why did you do that?" Clarifying a bit.

"Isn't it obvious? I love you." Answering his simple question.

"That's a lie." That stung a bit.

There was a large silent looming around us. I dislike it. I need to remove it. I need to find a way to change the atmosphere so Yugi is comfortable.

"You're married to Heba. And I love Atemu." Both my anger and sadness heighten.

"I know that was a lie." I didn't want to believe it. Knowing that Yugi was stolen from me is painful enough.

"It's true. I have children don't you see?" I can hear his anger in that gentle voice of his.

Another silent moment found its way in. Even though Yugi dropped his stare, I still have mine on the whole time. I saw him backing away from me a bit.

"I can still feel the mind link Yugi. You can never lie to me." Bring up the past.

I sent what I felt for him through the link to show my feelings. As a result, Yugi wasn't impressed, more to say frighten.

"Yami, I want to ask you something." Asking me another question

"What is it?"

"What's happening to me?" I showed him that I didn't understand what he was saying.

"Last time I remember was that I was next to Atemu…" He clarified a bit. The mention of that man brought my anger to a new level.

"When I was knocked out with the necklace in hand." Continuing his story.

"Then, the necklace is showing your future in your dreams." I answered, confidently.

"How do I get out of it?"

I thought for a moment. In the end, I got nothing. Yugi was disappointed a bit. I felt that he was scared because there wasn't a way to return home. In the past was where he wanted to be.

"As long I have you, it doesn't matter." I reassured him.

I hugged him close. It felt nice, but it ended when he pushed me away. I can feel that he didn't want to betray Heba with me like he did with Atemu. That was one mistake I'm not letting him repeating ever again. But I continued, wanting to feel his fragile skin on mine.

"Maybe I can take you away from him this time." I said softly into his ear.

I wanted to make him mine again. So that he can only look at me. Not anyone else. Once I return to the past, I'll make sure of it. But for now, I need to take this Yugi as my own. I'm sorry Heba, but I love only Yugi.

I let go of him when I heard knocking on the door. Dang all you people that get in the way. Mathew was here to tell me that Heba wanted me downstairs. I was a bit hesitated about it, but I agreed to it. Before I left Yugi alone, I looked back at him with desiring eyes. After that I bid my goodbyes. Tomorrow, I'll make sure he is mine no matter what.
