Wolf: Yama's first on things.

- Yugi's Pov-

Christmas time was here, making Yama about 3 months old. Today is going to be are first Christmas as a real family and Yama's first Christmas. This year will be different because we invited grandpa this time, he should show up sometime around this morning. We mostly set the tree up the same place as last time, in the large dinning room. Yama seemed to not really know what was going on because he was to young to understand, but he knew something was going to happen with the tree and everything.

When it first started to snow we took Yama out into the courtyard and he tried to catch the snowflakes in his hands. We never did take Yama out when the snow started to lay because we did not want him getting sick. He would look out the window every once and a while to see the snow falling.

When I woke up this morning around 6 in the morning, it was to Yama's crying and it was my turn to get him. I some how got out of Atem's grip and got out of bed to go to the nursery. I opened the door and walked over the the crib, when Yama saw me he started to stop crying, they then turned to small hiccups.

"Aw. Why is my little baby crying?" I said picking Yama up out of the crib.

He still had his small hiccups when I set him at my side. I sat in the little rocking chair in far right corner of the room and rocked Yama in my lap as he looked out the window. His hiccups stopped as he looked out the window still, he set he head against my chest. Then he saw my gold heart Atem had gotten me last year for Christmas. He held it in his hands as he traced his little finger around it. Then looked up at me.

"You like it?" I asked him.

He just looked back down at the heart and played with it. He managed to open it and looked inside, but then closed it and looked at the back. He then pointed to Atem's name on it, he seamed to know it was his fathers name. He looked back up at me keeping his finger on the name.

"Daddy gave it to me last year." I told him.

He put his head back down on my chest and held the heart in his hand, holding it close. Then the door opened up again and Atem stood in the doorway.

"Yugi why are you up so early?" He asked walking over to me.

"Yama woke up, but he is calm for now." I told him.

"Oh. Because I woke up to not find you in bed, so I knew you where probably here." He said.

"Nice guess. Yama seems to have taken a liking to my necklace you gave me last year." I said.

Atem bent down and looked at Yama and brushed a band out of his face, he looked up at Atem. Again he flipped my necklace over and pointed to Atem's name again. Atem giggled.

"Yes that's me." Atem told him.

Atem looked at me.

"How does he know?" He wondered.

"Not sure." I answered.

Yama let go of my necklace and held his arm out to Atem. Atem smiled and toke Yama out of my arms and stood back up and stood next to the window. We all could see the sun peaking out from behind the hills. Atem then let out a little yawn.

"You still tired honey?" I asked.

"Just a little." He answered.

Then Yama let out a little yawn, snuggled up to Atem's chest and closed his eyes.

"Seems like he wants to go back to sleep." Atem said.

I got up out of the chair and walked up to Atem and played with Yama's hair.

"Could Yama come with us to bed?" I asked.

"Why?" Atem wondered.

"It would just be for a little bit until grandpa comes." I said.

"I guess it would not hurt." Atem said.

Yama had looked back up at us with tired eyes.

"What do you say Yama. What to go to bed with mommy and daddy?" I asked him.

He nodded and snuggled back up to Atem's chest. We smiled down at him. We left the nursery as Atem still held Yama in his arms. When we got back into bed Atem laid Yama down in the middle of the bed and we laid on both sides of him. We got under the covers as we laid close to Yama. We closed are eyes and went back to sleep.

I woke up almost 3 hours later around 9:00. When I opened my eyes my eyes softened. When I looked over at Atem, Yama was snuggled to his side as Atem had a arm wrapped around him. They where still asleep so I got out of bed trying my best not to wake them up. I walked over to the French doors and looked out them to see a new layer of snow on the ground and on the balcony. I looked back over to the bed to see they where still sleeping. I walked back over to the bed and stood by Atem's side. I gently shook his shoulder.

"Atem?" I said.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked over at me.

"Come on honey get up." I told him.

He wiped some sleep out of his eyes and looked down at Yama at his side. He put a little smile on his face. He slowly unwrapped his arm from around him and slid out of bed. Atem stood next to me by the bed and he wrapped a arm around my waist as we looked down at Yama.

"He sure is tired." Atem said.

"Yea, but he will be full of energy later. He should wake up soon." I told him.

"Yea. He kind of reminds me of myself when I was young." Atem replied.

"How so?" I asked.

"Well even though my dad did not talk much about when I was young, but he did say that I was always tired then run around later when I was awake. That was when he was still nice to everyone." Atem said.

"As long as you don't turn into your father." I said, sounding a little worried.

"I would never and I don't plan on it. I want to give Yama the family I never had." Atem told me.

"I would hope so." I said.

"I want to be the best father I can be, better then what my dad was." He said.

"You are the best father, Yama knows it to, and the best husband for me." I told him kissing his cheek.

"I know I am and will be, always." Atem said.

"So Atem where did you put the secret mistletoe this time for Christmas?" I wondered.

"You'll find out later." He said.

"You are always mysterious." I told him.

"I know." He said as he gave me a quick kiss.

Yama then started to wake up. He slowly opened his eyes and noticed that Atem was gone next to him and I was gone to. He started to cry, noticing we where gone. I bend down to him.

"Its ok sweety, we're right here." I said to him.

He looked over to us and quickly held his arms out. I picked him up and he dug his head in my neck.

"Sorry Yama did we scare you?" I asked.

He just keep his head in my neck. I turned to Atem.

"He noticed we where not there when he woke up and freaked. I guess he thought we would be there when he woke up." I said.

"Guess so. What to go give Yama his bottle for this morning? Plus we can see if everyone else is up and doing something." Atem said.

"Sounds good." I said.

We walked out of are room and went down to the kitchen to give Yama his bottle. When we got down there Shada and Joey where the only ones down there.

"Master. You are the only ones awake beside me and Joey." Shada told us.

"Why is everyone else still sleeping?" I asked.

"Lets say Isis and Mahad got into the wine and had a little to much fun last night." Shada siad.

Are eyes widened.

"I can imagine what happens they wake up. That I would love to see." Atem said.

I slapped him playfully on the arm.

"Your not funny. What about Kaiba?" I asked.

"He should be getting up." Shada said.

We nodded. Atem got the bottle and warmed it up in hot water on the stove, I sat down in a chair by the kitchen table. Just then Kabia walked into the kitchen, Yama dug his head into my chest then.

"Morning." Kabia mumbled.

"Morning." We responded.

Kaiba said nothing more and sat in a seat in the corner of the kitchen. Atem got the bottle out of the water and handed it to me and I started to feed it to Yama, Atem toke a seat next to me. Before we knew it a scream was heard.

"Isis and Mahad." All of us said.

"I would love to see there faces." Atem said.

"Me and you both." Kaiba said.

About 5 minutes later Yama finished his bottle. Then Isis and Mahad slowly walked into the kitchen, heads down and deep blushes on there faces.
"Have fun?" Shada asked.

"Sure sounded like it. I was right next door." Kaiba said.

They lifted there heads and said nothing and just stared at us.

"You know there is nothing wrong with you to dating you know." Atem said while he had his arms folded across his chest and sitting back in his seat.

We all looked at him.

"We know. It was just so unexpected when it did happen." Isis said.

"There is nothing to be embarrassed about." Atem said.

"I guess not." Mahad said.

"Come on guys. Its Christmas we should be happy and having fun." I said.

They all looked at me.

"Yugi's right." Joey said.

"He does have a point." Isis said.

"Now that's better." I said.

Then Karim and Akhenaden walked into the kitchen, grandpa right behind them. I handed Yama to Atem and walked up to my grandpa.

"Hello grandpa." I welcomed him.

"Hello my boy. How are you, Atem and the little one?" He asked.

"Just fine." I answered.

Atem then walked up next to me with Yama in his one arm as he wrapped his other one around my waist.

"Hello grandpa." Atem greeted.

"Hello Atem." Grandpa said.

He looked at Yama in Atem's arms.

"Hello Yama. Did you miss me?" Grandpa asked.
Yama cooed and held his arms out to grandpa for a hug. Grandpa toke him and gave him a hug.

"What are we all standing around here for? Lets go down to the tree and open are presents." Atem said.

We all agreed and nodded, Joey was the first one to run out the door.

When we got down to the tree it looked even more beautiful then the last time. Again we gathered around the tree, this time we sat on the large carpet surrounding the tree. One by one we opened are presents me, Atem, and Yama where last. Yama had two presents, one from me and Atem then the other one was from grandpa. Yama was sitting in my lap and I helped him open his present from grandpa first. It was just a small toy for him to play with, it was a small horse and carriage. The horse was made of smooth, sanded wood along with the carriage. Yama automaticly wanted to play with it, but I stopped him and I helped him open the present from me and Atem. It was a stuffed bear, which us to be mine at one time, just a little bigger then Yama himself. The fur was really soft, I laid Yama next to the bear and he snuggled up to it. Me and Atem did not get are selves presents for each other, Yama was all we needed.

Later on we had a little Christmas dinner. Then grandpa had to go home and left. When it was finally dark, me and Yama sat by the fire with some blankets on the ground and got warm. Atem had gone off to help the servants clean up. Soon Yama fell asleep in my arms, I let out a yawn, I laid down onto the blankets on the floor as I keep Yama in my arms and fell asleep.

- Atem's Pov-

When I got out of the kitchen and when I entered the dinning room, over by the fireplace with Yama in his arms was Yugi, both sleeping calmly. I walked up to Yugi and gently shook him awake. He opened his eyes.

"Come on Yugi. Lets lets put Yama in his crib and go to bed." I said.

He nodded his head and I helped him up from the floor. We walked to the nursery and we put Yama in his crib. We both gave him a good night kiss and we went to bed are selves.

- Yugi's Pov-

A couple of months after Christmas eventually Mahad and Isis started to date and be together. It was new for Joey, sometimes he always thinks Isis and Mahad will get married, but time only tells. We all knew that eventually that Mahad and Isis would get together. It things worked out then they might be the next ones getting married.

When Atem's 23rd birthday came along we Yama had started to crawl. I know this much, he is harder to watch with him crawling everywhere. Some times when we play on the floor with him he likes to crawl around you until he made himself dizzy. He was so silly when he did it we laugh every time he does it.

In May Bakura had appeared again, this time with a warning.

/Flashback/

Me and Atem where out in the courtyard playing with Yama when he appeared on the courtyard wall again. Atem quickly stood up when he spotted him and I grabbed Yama from the blanket we where sitting on.

"Bakura? Why are you back?" Atem asked him.

"I came to visit, mostly just to give you a message." Bakura said calmly as he sat on the wall.

"Message?" Atem wondered.

"Yes." Bakura said.

Bakura jumped down from the wall and walked slowly over to us.

"Don't take a step closer Bakura or I will rip you apart." Atem threatened.

"Don't threaten me you fool. I would love to see you try." Bakura said as he stopped about 20 feet from Atem.

"Tell me want you want to tell me and leave." Atem ordered.

"Fine." He said.

He glared down at me and Yama then looked back up at Atem.

"One day I will get back my revenge. My lovers death will be avenged. How I will do it, I know exactly what to do. I will not tell you, this plan will not be put into action for a while." Bakura said.

"Is that all?" Atem asked.

"Yes, I will leave you. I will be back in the future." Bakura said.

He ran back to the wall and jumped over it with one magical leap and was gone.

"I hope he does not come back any time soon." I said laying Yama back on the blanket.

"Me to." Atem sighed.

/Flashback Ends/

After my 20th birthday went Yama was still 7 months he had started to try and walk. Me and Atem helped him out at first.

/Flashback/

Me and Atem where in the nursery playing with Yama when he stood up while holding onto a little chair.

"Atem look." I said excited.

Atem turned around to look at Yama just standing there. Atem bent down in front to Yama a few feet away. I knelled next to Yama.

"Come on Yama. Try to walk to me." Atem told him.

Yama looked at me a little confused.

"Its ok. Try to walk to daddy." I told him.

He looked back at Atem slowly let go of the chair and stood there for a moment. When he toke a step he fell, but I caught him before he hit the floor. I set him back up against the chair.

"Try again sweety." I told him.

He let go of the chair and got to 3 steps this time before he fell again.

"Don't worry you'll get it." Atem told him.

"What to try again?" I asked Yama.

He got up out of my lap and held back on to the chair. He let go again. This time he got half way there to where Atem was at.

"Almost. You will get it soon enough. You have to keep trying." Atem said.

/Flashback Ends/

By then end of June, after the day when he turned 8 months, he would walk fine, but fell every now and then. We always smiled when he learned how to do something new. It showed us how much Yama was growling up, it seemed to fast. Soon my baby would not be a baby anymore.

It is September 27th and its Yama's 1st birthday was going to be great for Yama. We wanted to make sure he had fun. We invited grandpa again to come, he has not seen Yama in a while so he did not know he could walk yet. Joey was going to make a little cake for Yama for him to play in while Mahad with the help of Joey make the cake for everyone else. When grandpa came threw the front door Yama jogged over to him and held his arms out for a hug. Grandpa was so surprised.

"Well look at this. He walking, practically running." Grandpa said.

"Sorry we never told you. We have not had the time." I told him.

"That's alright, I like surprises when I come to visit you." Grandpa said.

"He learned to walk a couple months back, now he has started to run. He is much harder to watch with him running everywhere." I told him.

"I would think so. Has he learned to talk yet?" Grandpa asked.

"No. We have try to get him to talk but he does not say real words, just baby talk." Atem told him.

"We try every once and a while. We might try later just to see." I said.

We walked to the dinning room where everyone was. There where some presents on the table while the cakes where laying next to the presents. The room was not that decorated, but Joey decided to make a little banner for Yama's party. It said 'Happy Birthday Yama' that was in really nice cursive in different colors. With help of Kaiba then hung it above the doorway. I sat Yama in his car and I sat next to him as Atem sat on the other.

"Come one guys we are going to wish Yama a happy birthday." Atem said to the others.

The all surrounded us as Joey brought the little cake and set it in front of Yama. He was so excited he just wanted to start eating the whole thing, but I stopped him before he could even touch it. We sang happy birthday to Yama and he started to destroy the cake. When he was done the cake was half gone, even though some of the cake was all over him. I toke him out of his seat and started to get the icing off the best I could then cleaned off his chair that had a little icing on it. When he was all clean Mahad started to cut the other cake for the rest of us. While we ate are cake Yama wanted to open his presents. I picked him up and put him on my lap when I was done eating my cake. He quickly grabbed a present from the table it was from grandpa and, with my help, started to open it. Once open inside was a little toy piano. He started to play it a little bit, he found it vary entertaining.

"You going to give grandpa a thank you hug?" I whispered into Yama ear.

He then jumped off my lap and gave grandpa a hug. Then got back on my lap. We opened more presents. From Isis, Joey and Mahad they gave him cloths with a shirt and sweeter Isis made, Shada got Yama a little kids book, Kaiba actually got him something it was a coloring book.

Last was mine and Atem's present to him. When Yama opened the box his eyes lit up. Inside was a little stuffed horse, that was a little smaller then him. The horse was gray and little spots of black with a black main. He grabbed it and gave it a big hug, he loved it.

"You like it?" Atem asked him.

He nodded his head as he kept it in the horses neck. He lifted his head and looked at me and Atem. He reached up and hugged us both on the neck.

The rest of the party went by fine, Yama loved to color in his coloring book, he toke his horse everywhere he went when he walked around. Soon grandpa had to leave so we said goodbye to him and Akhenaden toke him back to the village. Yama gave out a yawn.

"You tired Yama?" I asked.

He nodded as he rubbed his eyes. He laid his head down on his horse that was on my shoulder.

"You take him to bed, I will help everyone clean up." Atem said.

"Ok." I agreed and headed to the nursery to put Yama in his crib.

I laid Yama in his crib while we hugged his horse tight. I stayed there and looked over Yama as he sleep. I must have stood there for a while because I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. I jumped a little.

"Sorry." Atem whispered in my ear.

"Thats ok." I said.

We both looked down at Yama as he sleep.

"Its amazing that now he is a year old." I said.

"Yea, it only seems like yesterday he was born." Atem said.

"They grow fast." I said moving a bang out of Yama's eyes.

"They do. Soon he will be talking." Atem told me.

"I always wonder when he will start to talk and what he will say first. I don't know what I will do when he is grown up." I said.

"We can always have another." Atem suggested.

"I will think about it. I might like that." I answered.

"You think to much." Atem joked.

"Shut up." I said.

I let out a small yawn.

"Come on lets get to bed, we had a long day and so did Yama." He said.

I just nodded and we walked out of the nursery then to are room to sleep.

Three weeks later I was sitting in the nursery with Yama while Atem was getting a bath. Yama was playing with his stuffed horse from his birthday while I just sat on the floor and watched him. Then Yama pulled on my pant leg.

"You want me to play with you?" I asked.

He nodded.

"Ok." I said.

I sat on the floor with him while he moved into my lap.

"I wonder if I can try to get him to talk?" I wondered.

"Hey Yama, you want to try and talk?" I asked.

He just tilted his head.

"Just try to say something, anything." I told him.

He just looked at me, he then pointed to the heart locket around my neck. I look it off and gave it to him. He turned it in his hands until he pointed to Atem's name. He seemed to say something, but I could not hear.

"Come one Yama I know you can do it." I encouraged.

He looked at me and pointed to Atem's name again.

"D-Dad-dy" He struggled.

"You did it! See I knew you could do it." I cheered.

Soon the opened and Atem walked in dressed in a black shirt and black pants.

"What are you two doing in here?" Atem asked as he stood next to me.

"I'm trying to get Yama to talk." I told him.

"Did he do it?" Atem wondered.

"He did, let me show you." I told him.

I turned to Yama.

"Yama, what was it you just said." I said.

He looked back up at me, then looked up to Atem. He then started to point to Atem.

"Daddy." He said, much better this time.

"That's amazing! I'm so proud of you Yama." Atem said patting his head.

He just giggled.

"You know who I am, but who is this?" Atem asked pointing to me.

"Mom-my" Yama said with little trouble.

"He did it!" I cheered.

Yama clapped.

"He did." Atem agreed.

I gave Yama a hug.

"You are such a big boy now." I told him.

He just giggled.

-End of Part 12-
