Chapter 14- My Loving Family
Serena was driving down the main road, her mind clogged with thoughts alike.
'Damn, how in the world am I gona keep this a secret…' she thought, turning into the parking lot where Chris and her daughter were. Turning the car off, she got out and stretched.
'I just hope Chris doesn't ask why I'm late…' she muttered. Composing herself and getting rid of all those annoying thoughts, she walked up the area to the park where the man was playing with a young girl on the swings. Anakai looked up as saw her mom.
"HI mommy!" she yelled. Serena smiled and came closer.
"Hello there Anakai, hi Chris, thanks for watching her. Sorry I'm late," she said. Chris grinned, grabbing the swing that the young girl was on and stopped it so Anakai could get off.
"Oh it's no problem. Anyways, it's 'that time of month' again for Laura," he shivered. "Damn why I married a woman who PMS's so badly is beyond me. I was glad to get away from her," he said with a laugh. Serena sweat dropped and grinned.
"Heh, well, ok then," she said, rubbing the back of her head. "Well I better get back, common Anakai, say goodbye to Uncle Chris," she said. Anakai grinned and ran over to her uncle.
"Bye bye," she giggled. Chris grinned and lifted the girl off the ground.
"Good to see you too kiddo," he said back, setting the girl down. "Now be good for your mother you here!" he bellowed. Serena rolled her eyes and grabbed Anakai's hand.
"Right Chris, I'll see you later," she sent-off. Walking to her car, she opened the back door and picked Anakai up, putting her into her car seat.
"There you go honey," she said, strapping her in. Closing the door, she walked over to the other side and got into the drivers side.
"Mommy, I'm thirsty!" Anakai whined. Serena grinned, reaching down to the cup holders to get the sippie cup.
"Here Anakai," she said, handing the drink to the girl. The little one grabbed the cup and began drinking out of it.
'Ah…quiet for a couple minutes…' she thought, turning the car on. Putting in into reverse, she drove out of the parking space she had and went out of the parking lot. Driving down the main street once again, her mind began to wander back to Yugi and Atemu.
'I really wonder…at least Chris didn't sense anything,' Serena thought, sighing.
"Mommy, what's wrong?" Anakai asked, stopping from sipping from her cup. Serena glance back and the child and grinned.
"Nothing Anakai, oh guess what? Uncle Yugi's at out room," she said in a happy go lucky voice. Anakai clapped her hands (hand and cup) together.
"Yay, uncle Yugi! Will I be able to play with uncle Yugi mommy!" Anakai asked. Serena smiled, why her daughter was so considerate, she'd never know.
"I don't know Anakai, Yugi had a friend over with him and he's sleepy today ok?" she said. "Uncle Yugi might be a bit to tired to play a lot." Anakai pouted.
"Aww, ok then. I'll just give him a big hug then!" she chirped, waving her hands in the air. Serena chuckled.
"Sure then Anakai," she said. The drive went quiet after that, since Anakai had gone back to sipping juice again. They eventually made it too the Hotel they were staying at. Serena smiled, got out and closed the door behind her. Walking around the car, she opened the passenger door and undid the booster seat that Anakai was in. Once the strap was undone, she picked the little girl up and placed her on the ground. Closing the door and locking the car, she walked over to an entrance to the hotel. Taking out her key card, she slides it through the slot and walked inside. Taking her daughters hand in hers, she walked over to the elevator and pushed the button. Waiting a bit, she glanced down at Anakai who still had the sippie cup in on hand and drinking from it. Undoing her hand from her mothers, she pushed the button again…and again, and again, and again. Serena laughed and pulled her hand away.
"Anakai, stop that," she said with a laugh as the doors opened. The little one took the sippie out of her mouth and grinned.
"But it came didn't it mommy!" she said happily, dragging her mother into the elevator. Reaching out to the other buttons, she pushed the two. Serena smiled.
"So you've learned your numbers?" she asked as the doors closed and the device began to move. Anakai grinned and nodded.
"I did mommy! See, that," she pointed to the one button. "Is one! This two that three and…and that…um…" she paused, pouting. "I don't remember…"
"Four?" her mother added in. Anakai smiled and nodded.
"Yeah yeah, four!" she bellowed happily. Suddenly the elevator stopped, dinging, and the doors opened. Serena walked out, holding onto her daughter by the hand.
"Now Anakai, I was to tell you to be quiet. Uncle Yugi might be sleeping and we don't want to wake him ok?" she told the girl as she unlocked the door. Anakai nodded. Serena turned around and opened the door and walked inside. Closing the door behind her, she turned and looked over to where she remembered Yugi and Atemu being. Blinking as she saw the two of them, she then beamed brightly. Yugi's face was nestled right in the crock of Atemu's bare neck, and his legs curled up to his chest. Atemu had his right arm around the young ones shoulder, his head tilted to the left, mouth open and breathing shallowly. Yugi's injured arm was relaxed across the side of his body, and his other arm curled in against Atemu's chest. The remote was slipping slowly out of Atemu's left hand, and the TV was left on. Also Serena noticed that Yugi had changed his clothing from his now torn up concert uniform (that, oddly, is still in once piece even after all that's happened) and into a clean t-shirt and jeans. Atemu had also put some shoes on and a plain red shirt as well.
'They look so peaceful…' she whispered in her mind. Atemu looked as far form a dragon as you could get. His face soft and gentle; and Yugi didn't look like a magic controlling, powerful mage. Just an ordinary, older teenager, small for his age, and containing pure light. Serena blinked. One almost completely light…the other mostly darkness. Perfect human beings of the term Yin Yang. Serena closed her eyes and then opened them, glancing around for her daughter. Her smile faltered when she couldn't find the girl.
"Anakai," she whispered. "Anakai, where are you…" she muttered. Looking around, her eyes fell on Atemu and Yugi again to see Anakai standing in front of them, eyeing the two.
"Anakai," she whispered loudly, running over the girl. "Let them sleep!" she said. Anakai glanced up at her mother.
"Why's Uncle Yugi sleeping with another man?" she asked. Serena ran a hand through her hair.
"Ah…Anakai, just…common, lets go into the other room," she said, grabbing the girls hand and leading her away from the couple. Anakai allowed her mother to lead her away from Yugi and Atemu. Once in the bedroom of the Suite, Serena closed the swing doors that separated the other room from this one. Walking over to her bed, she set Anakai down.
"Now Anakai, you can watch TV, but you have to be quiet ok?" she told the girl. Anakai blinked and nodded.
"Ok…but mommy, why is that friend of Uncle Yugi's here? Huh?" she asked innocently. "And why is Uncle Yugi so tiered?" Serena ran a hand through her hair, sighing.
"Yugi's…had a long day. He's tired and his friend is too ok," she told the girl. Turning and grabbing the remote she turned the TV on. "Watch some TV Anakai, I'll be right back ok?" she told the girl. Anakai nodded and grabbed the remote out of her mom's hand, switching the channels till it got to a show of Spongebob Squarepants. She began to giggle at the show, forgetting about her mother at the moment. Serena smiled in relief and walked out into the other room, closing the door behind her again. Walking over to the two, she gently took the remote out of Atemu's hand and switched the TV off. Placing the remote on the TV, she turned to the couple on couch. Atemu's arm had moved from resting on the armrest to lying between him and the edge of the couch. Yugi shifted a bit as well and moved closed to Atemu, burring his head deeper into the crook of the others neck. His eyelids stirred and one violet eye cracked open, gazing around tiredly till his site fell on Serena. Blinking, he let out an embarrassed squeak and immediately moved away from Atemu. Atemu opened his eyes, confused on the sudden loss of heat and the movement. He glanced up at Serena and tiredness was immediately washed away from his face.
"Uh…U-um Serena…hi," Yugi greeted hesitantly. "Um…um, i-it's not what it looks like…r-really…I-I mean…um…" he droned off, a blush covering his face in embarrassment. Serena chuckled and crossed her arms.
"Oh Yugi, it's fine. Believe me, I could tell if something was going on," she said with a laugh. Yugi's blush deepened.
"Um...yeah, sorry…" he muttered. Atemu sighed and yawned.
"I'm still tired…" he muttered in mid yawn. Yugi glanced over at him.
"You shouldn't be that tired!" he exclaimed. Atemu shrugged and leaned back, attempting to fall back asleep. Yugi glared and hit the other over the top of the head.
-Oh stop it!- he bellowed. Atemu sat up straight, rubbing the back of his head, glared back at Yugi.
--I hate you…-- he muttered.
-I love you too- Yugi said with a laugh. Atemu rolled his eyes and glance up at a confused Serena.
"Um…" the woman started. "What…are you doing?" she asked. Yugi glanced up at her.
"Talking," he stated simply. Serena raised and eyebrow questionably.
"Uh…" she started, sweat dropping. Yugi blinked.
"Can't you…hear us?" he asked, a frown casting over his face. Serena shook her head slowly.
"Hear you…when?" she asked. Yugi stared.
"Telepathically. Speaking though thoughts, you couldn't hear us?" he asked again. Serena blinked.
"Yugi, how in the world can you speak telepathically, you've never been taught how to do that," she said.
"I thought all mages could hear the way we talk," Atemu said. Serena looked over at him.
"What do you mean my that?" she asked. Atemu sat up straighter.
"When I'm in my true dragon form, we lose the ability to talk out loud, so we talk through a mind like…voice…" he said, blinking. "Don't all mages have that ability or magic to hear us, Yugi can," he stated. Serena shook her head.
"I couldn't hear anything. Maybe…I sensed you two were doing something but I could specifically hear your words…" she said, placing her hand on her chin in thought. "Why you can talk with him Yugi I don't know…we're not supposed to be able to communicate that way unless we were specifically taught it. So…" she looked up at him. "I don't recall you going through that kind of training." Yugi cocked his head to the side, thinking as well.
"Huh…when I could first hear Atemu, I just thought it was the magic inside of me that allowed it to happen…" Yugi muttered. Serena suddenly sighed and ran a hand through her brunette hair.
"I suppose the only one will really know about it is, sadly, Sugoroku…" she murmured, glancing to the side. Yugi nodded.
"I suppose…well," he stretched a bit. "We don't need to think about it," he reached over and grabbed the remote out of Atemu's hand, turning the TV back on. "I'm just gona relax my brain and watch TV," he said, laying himself over Atemu's legs.
"Hey, my legs are not a pillow," Atemu muttered, shoving the boys head off. Yugi caught himself from falling onto the floor and glared up at Atemu.
"I'm the one that's injured, not you," he poked Atemu's legs. "Besides, your legs make a fine pillow!" he said with a laugh. Atemu rolled his eyes and allowed the younger one to do as he wished. Serena blinked questionably and then laughed.
"You two are too funny," she said with a chuckle. Standing, she walked over to the sink like area. "Do you guys want anything to eat…I don't think I have anything left over from last night…" she glanced into the fridge. "Yes, nope, no food," she stood and turned to the two collage men. "You guys want anything in particular? I can order something if you want. I'm hungry so…" she trailed off, waiting for an answer. Yugi sat up straighter.
"Um…I'm hungry but whatever you buy…don't really care," he shrugged and turned to Atemu. "What about you?" he asked. Atemu looked over at him and then to Serena.
"I don't care either, get what you want," he said. Serena nodded and grabbed the phone.
"I'll say pizza, Anakai will like that," she said, looking through the phone book for a pizza place nearby. Yugi blinked.
"Where is she anyway?" he asked. Serena held the phone up to her ear.
"She's in the bedroom…oh hi. Can I order some pizza for take out?" she said into the receiver and began taking their order. Yugi turned back to the TV and laid his head over Atemu's knees. The dragon held up his hand and stroked Yugi's hair lovingly. Yugi smiled.
-Mmm, that feels nice…- he murmured. Atemu chuckled.
--Ah, really?-- he began rubbing the boys scalp soothingly. Yugi nuzzled the others legs.
-Mmm…heh it does…- he said, dozing off slightly. Atemu chuckled lightly and kept up his actions. Yugi folded his un-injured arm under his head, closing his eyes in contentment. Over on the other side of the room, Serena has finished with the phone call, and placed the phone back in its cradle. Turning around, she glanced over at the couple on her couch. She smiled, walking over to the two to sit down in one of the sofa chairs.
"Ya know, it's not that hard to tell that you two are a couple," she said with a smirk. Atemu glanced up at her, but his hand did not stop moving over Yugi's head.
"If you want to keep this a secret," Serena continued. "Then you're going to have to conceal your affection a little bit more here," she said with a laugh. Atemu blinked and then shrugged.
"We're not in public at all…why should I care right now?" he asked, closing his eyes. Serena rubbed her head, chuckling yet again.
"You surely are hopeless aren't ya?" she asked, glancing up at the two through her bangs. Yugi had opened one eye to look at her, and then just snuggled back into his lover's knees.
"If he stops, I'm going to hurt you," he said, directing it to Serena. "It feels nice…" he said with an almost purr afterwards. Serena smiled.
"I don't think I ever imagined something like this happening, but I guess the oddest things happen to…" she paused. "Well, I suppose you're not normal…since you're a mage and all and the proh-" she suddenly stopped. "Um, and you being…you and all!" she exclaimed. Yugi now had both eyes open, staring at her curiously and even a bit of anger in that gaze. Blinking, he then sighed and closed his eyes, burring his face back into Atemu's knees. Atemu glanced down at the teen and sighed, moving his hands so he could massage the boy's neck and shoulder. The younger one gave a slight sigh in the relief of the tension. Serena sighed quietly, then hearing a door open, turned to it. Anakai was standing in the middle of the doorway, her hands clutching the bear of hers, glancing at her "Uncle" in confusion. Quietly coming out, she ran over to her mother and clutched the woman's leg.
"Mommy…I don't like how uncle Yugi is acting today…" she said quietly. Serena smiled lightly, and picked the girl up.
"Ah, it's alright Anakai," she told the girl. "That's Yugi's friend, Atemu. Do you remember Atemu?" she asked the little girl. Anakai slowly nodded.
"He was dragon…" she muttered. Serena blinked and then smiled.
"Yes he is, but Anakai, this is a secret. You cannot tell anyone. Not even grandpa Motou ok? Just a secret between you, them and me ok? Not even uncle Chris can know," she explained to the younger one. Anakai blinked and then slowly nodded.
"Ok mommy…" she whispered. Serena smiled and kissed the girl on the forehead.
"Good…now do you want to meet Atemu?" she asked the younger one, placing her on the ground.. Anakai, after getting her footing on the floor, nodded her head. Serena smiled and looked up at Yugi and Atemu. The two were listening and had most likely heard her conversation with the younger girl. Serena stood and gently took Anakai's hand in her own. Walking over to the two, she kneeled down.
"This is Atemu, Anakai. Yugi's really good friend," she explained to the little girl. Anakai had her teddy bear held up to her face, over her mouth. Blinking she nodded and reached out to touch Atemu. The dragon had long stopped his stroking on the younger ones head and Yugi had also sat up straight to face the girl. Anakai stared up at him, confused, all this new and unknown to her. Atemu was about to raise his hand in a greeting when his eyes caught onto the claws upon them. Lowering his hand, he just smiled.
"It's nice to meet you well…again I suppose," he said with a light laugh. Yugi smiled and then turned his head back down towards Anakai.
"Anakai, Atemu is very nice ok? You don't have to be scared of him." The girl blinked and the crawled up onto the couch between Yugi and Atemu. Looking up at the human dragon, she began glancing at his claws, eyes and other inhumanly parts of his body. Blinking again, she then grinned and began climbing up onto the dragons shoulder, trying to reach his one stray blond, straight up bang, dropping her bear in the process. Atemu made a small sound of protest, but allowed the girl to do as she wished. Anakai giggled as she grabbed the man's hair and then suddenly gave it a sharp tug. Atemu gave a shout of pain and objection. Yugi couldn't help but laugh as he grabbed Anakai.
"Anakai, stop that! You're hurting him!" he exclaimed. Anakai let go of Atemu's hair and turned to Yugi.
"But it's cool uncle Yugi!" she said with a giggle. Yugi placed the girl down on the sofa seat and sighed.
"Yes it may be," he then patted Atemu's head extra hard. "But it hurts when you pull on it," he explained, giving Atemu's head one final hard pat. The dragon glared down at the mage.
--You're being more annoying then she ever was…-- he muttered. Yugi smirked.
-I know- he said back. Atemu just rolled his eyes and moved away from the child and the teen. Yugi grinned and placed Anakai on the ground. The girl turned back to him, blinking.
"Uncle Yugi…" she started in a semi quiet voice. Yugi glanced down at her and smiled.
"Yes Anakai?" he said. The girl blinked her hazel eyes and pointed at Atemu.
"If he is a dragon..." she stopped. "Then…he doesn't look like a dragon…why?" she asked. Yugi blinked, confused.
"Um…could you repeat that Anakai?" he asked. The girl blinked inoceently again.
"He's not furry or…or have big claws!" she explained, holding up her hands in a cat like way. "And…where's his giant," she held out her hands horizontally as wide as she could. "Body and wings?" she asked. Yugi then nodded.
"Because…well," he glanced over at Atemu.
-Think it's ok to say this stuff?- he asked. Atemu shrugged and nodded slightly.
--Sure, I don't see why not-- he answered. Yugi nodded and turned back to Anakai.
"Well Anakai, Atemu can look like a human even though he is not. So that people aren't mean to him and idolize him from regular people. Like us, to fit in with humans we have to act like them," he explained. Anakai nodded.
"I get it Uncle Yugi," she turned to Atemu and crawled up onto his lap. "So he's like us?" she asked again. Yugi nodded.
"Yes, in many ways he is," he said. Anakai smiled and nodded. Atemu blinked and turned to Yugi.
--She's quite mature for her age-- he stated quietly. Yugi nodded.
-Yeah…quiet understanding, it's nice though- he turned to Atemu, grinning. -She'll accept you, which makes me glad- he said. Atemu smiled. Glancing back at Anakai, he patted her head.
"Thank you Anakai, that actually means a lot to me," he said. Anakai giggled slightly, clutching her teddy bear that she received from the floor.
"Yay!" she said with a laugh, bouncing on Atemu's legs. The dragon chuckled and picked the girl up, placing her next to him on the couch. The girl then was picked up by her mother, who brought the younger one next to her again. Serena smiled, placing the girl in her lap.
"Hey Serena," Yugi started. The woman looked up. "How long are you and the family planning on staying?" he asked. Serena smiled.
"We're leaving later today. Actually, I should get packing, I have to meet Sugoroku at around noonish and it's already almost 10," she said, glancing at her watch. "Were all traveling back together, it'll maker life easier," she explained. Yugi smiled and stood.
"Then maybe we sound get going," he said. Atemu nodded as well.
"We don't want to keep you from anything," the taller one said politely. Serena smiled and waved it off.
"And leave before the pizza even got here, well ok then," she said, standing and placing Anakai on the ground. "I was planning on saving it for the trip back home anyway," she said with a wink. Yugi chuckled.
"So why are you getting pizza so early…sounds weird to have some this early in the morning." Serena laughed.
"That pizza is all I'm going to eat till about seven and I cannot eat on the road…way to hard," she said with a grin. Yugi laughed.
"Ok then," turning to Atemu, he smiled. "You're the one who needs to take me home, remember that," he said with a grin. Atemu rolled his eyes and placed a hand around Yugi's shoulders.
"I know hikari," he said, grinning. Yugi smiled and pushed himself out of the other's embrace. Walking over to Anakai, he kneeled and gave her a hug.
"See ya Anakai, I'll see you soon," he said as a goodbye. Anakai returned the hug.
"Bye bye Uncle Yugi," she giggled. The older mage smiled and stood. Turning he gave Serena a hug as well.
"I guess this is goodbye for now. Hope you guys visit again," he said. Serena returned it and then backed away from her cousin.
"Same to you Yugi," she let go of Yugi and walked over to Atemu. Stopping in front of the man, she smiled and embraced him. Atemu took in a hitched breath of surprise
"If you're going to apart of Yugi's life, then you're apart of our family, and that's my family," she whispered to the other. Atemu blinked in confused and returned the embrace shakily, this type of showing of love confusing and foreign to him (besides him and Yugi). Serena chuckled and pulled back, her hands on Atemu's shoulders.
"I truly do hope our family accepts you Atemu Akashi," she said with a soft smile. Atemu nodded slowly, his face clearly showing incredulity at what the woman just told him. Serena smiled and was suddenly pushed to the side as Anakai ran up between her and Atemu, hugging the man's legs.
"Bye bye Uncle Atemu," she said with a giggle. Atemu blinked, shocked on the new name. Then smiling, he kneeled down and embraced the young girl.
"I was very glad to meet you Anakai," he looked up at Serena. "Both of you." He then stood, letting go of the girl. Yugi walked over to him and took the others hand in his.
"Thanks again Serena," he grinned. "See you soon," and at that said, he and the dragon opened the door and were gone.
