Crimson blood- Chapter 20

Yugi was currently standing outside the door to her apartment. It's been two days since the vampires agreed to live with the mortals and things were going great. Although Yugi and Yami have hardly talked about what transpired between them. It's like it never happened. It was announced yesterday that Bakura and Marik are giving a relationship a go with Ryou and Malik. Yugi smiled, her friends seemed happy, she was happy for them. She really needs to speak to Yami though, what came out of that kiss she doesn't know. However, she has the urge to make him hers since a wave of possessiveness escalated in her system. He's hers..

She was in Domino, suggested by Yami to get her belongings. She didn't have anything whatsoever at Yami's place and there're a few things she doesn't want to leave behind.. Her piano, for instance. She couldn't recall the last time she'd genuinely played on it. It's always been a personal kind of thing. Bakura, Seto, and Marik don't even know such a room exists with her instruments. She's always forbidden them to enter. It's like her sanctuary when she has the sudden urge to express her emotions. But now.. She will be taking her piano and other belongings to Yami's mansion so he can see everything.. He'd know her secret.

She rubbed her head as she entered her newly abandoned apartment. She was over thinking things again which in turn stopped her in her tracks from moving further in actually entering. Once inside, she let her door slam behind her not too nicely as she made her way around her apartment. First, she was in need to pack some attire or she'd be forever wearing Yami's shirts. She didn't mind much, although she wouldn't exactly call it decent.

Once her clothes were freshly packed she worked on necessaries in which she'd need some time in the future. She couldn't take all her shit with her, not if it's not completely necessary. She has a moving van hired to get everything she cannot anyway. Once her suitcases were full of her belongings, she made her way towards the room she's longed to be in since she left a couple of months ago. Upon entering, she wasted no time in sitting on the chair in front of her piano. She ran a hand over the smooth surface, revering the smooth glossy cold material beneath her fingers. A smiled pulled at her lips, she's missed her piano soo much it's unbelievable.

She gave the keys an expeditious run along before standing from her seat and making her departure. She'd see it at Yami's mansion soon. They'll reunite again.

She grasped her suitcases that were left at the front door as she made her exit again. Time to go to the train station so she can go 'home.' Yami will be waiting for her, after all. She gave one last glance towards her apartment in a silent farewell before walking away, never to look back. Farewell Domino.

Yugi departed from the train, suitcase gripped tightly in either hand as she made her journey onwards, Yami should be waiting nearby. She dragged her suitcases along behind her, stopping abruptly when she caught sight of the all too familiar head of hair sauntering towards her with elegance. She let a smile fall from her lips as he advanced, a smile also making its way to his features as he locked eyes with Yugi. Yugi let go of her suitcase so she could embrace Yami once he arrived in front of her. He embraced her back with a chuckle.

"Welcome back" He pulled her closer towards his body as an unoccupied hand made its way into her hair to stroke the smooth, newly conditioned strands.

"Thank you" She pulled back slightly so she could lock eyes with his "I know it's been about five hours at most, but.. I missed you" She smiled when he grinned.

"I missed you too little one" He leaned forward to kiss her forehead "Come, let's go home, shall we?" He held his hand out in an invitation to Yugi who gladly accepted it. He grabbed one of her suitcases in his right hand as Yugi gripped the other in her left.

Yugi smiled as they made their exit out of the train station "Hey, Yami?"

He turned towards Yugi, nodding his head in acknowledgment "What's up little one?"

"About the other day.."

"The other day?" He raised an eyebrow in confusion "We've had loads of those 'other days'"

She bit her lip "You know, when I kissed you and all." She turned towards Yami to see his reaction, however, there was none. "Did you, uh, did you enjoy it?"

He chuckled "Did I enjoy you kissing me?" He smiled "Of course I did, I wouldn't have responded otherwise."

Yugi turned her head sidewards, attempting to hide the grin on her face "Oh.."

Yami looked on in amusement. It's rare Yugi ever get's embarrassed whatsoever, but right now, she's ten shades of red, it's adorable. Instead of embarrassing her more than he intended, he dropped the subject, maybe he can embarrass her some other time.

"Mummy!" Jaden ran towards Yugi, jumping in her arms as she held her arms wide in invitation.

"Hey son." She wrapped her arms around the boy in her arms "Did you miss me?"

"Yes!" He giggled when Yugi spun him around in the air.

"Good" She chuckled as she settled him on his own two feet. That made her dizzy.

"He's been none stop asking when you'll be back cousin" Seto walked forward as he pulled his coat over his shoulders "I'll be going now, me and Joey are going to do some.. Um, business."

Yugi raised an eyebrow at her cousin, however, shrugged it off as nothing. She smiled "Yeah, I'll phone you later."

He gave a slight nod, ruffling Jaden's hair before he made his departure out of the front door "Bye kiddo."

Yami shut the door behind him and picked up both suitcases as he ascended the stairs. He turned his head slightly to shout over his shoulder "I'll just take these to your room" Not waiting for a reply he jumped up the last steps and turned down the corridor out of sight.

"Come on" Yugi flung an arm around Jaden's shoulder, leading him outside. It was a beautiful day so she hardly wanted to waste the sun just to be cooped up inside for no particular reason. She opened the door leading outside and immediately went to the bench that overlooks the city. It's an extraordinary sight on its own. Imagine such a sight at night when the sun is setting, with swirls of red, orange and yellow. She can imagine it right now, it would be a heavenly sight. She made a mental note to come here once the sun is setting one night.

"It's beautiful isn't it" It wasn't a question, she knew. However, she answered it anyway.

"It's a breathtaking sight indeed son" She let an arm fall around his shoulder to bring him closer. She felt content being here. More so than she thought at first. She made the right decision for once in her life, one she knows she'd never regret.

He smiled as his eyes trailed upward "Are you and Yami..?"

"Together?" She finished as an eyebrow raised in question. At his nod, she sighed "I'm not too sure kid, I'm still contemplating if I want some sort of relationship with him."

"The way you look at him" He averted his gaze towards Yugi, his eyes shining from the sun's rays "It's a form of love."

Yugi stared on in shock. What was he getting at? "Jaden, what?"

He shrugged "The way you look at him, the way you both look at each other reminds me of how my mum and dad used to look at each other when they were in love.. Well before father started drinking and went insane" He rubbed the back of his head "I guess that was a bad example, my dad did kill my mother one night, after all."

Yugi brought Jaden closer if possible as she went over everything he said. After some thought, she gave a long sigh "You want me and Yami to be together, correct?"

He gave a nod "I love you both, he's amazing and nice to me! I want to see the both of you together" He looked into his mother's eyes "He's caring and would make a good father, I'm sure he'd make a good boyfriend too."

"I know." She gave a smile "It wouldn't hurt to try, would it?"

"Really?" Jaden perked up at his mother's reply "Do you mean.."

"Yes" She cut him off and chuckled "I need to get my head out of my ass and start listening to these feelings I have" She kissed his forehead "I really like him, It's not love, but it's still something."

"Alright!" He pounced at Yugi, in turn knocking her backward slightly from the force. She regained her balance when the hyper teen let go of her with a sheepish smile marring his features "Sorry.. Heh.."

"It's fine" She rubbed a hand through his hair "You're happy, I get that."

He nodded "I am" He stood up from the bench, stretching his tense muscles "Can I go into the pool?"

"Sure" She stood as well "Not too long though"

"Okay!" He called out as he ran into the house to get his swimming trunks. Yugi watched on in amusement. Gods.. She loves that kid.

"CANNON BALL!"

"Oh Gods" Yugi exclaimed as Jaden ran towards her, jumping in the air as his body curled up into a ball. She made an attempt to dodge though failed as she was a victim to the water that shot all over her, due to the force of impact Jaden's body had when hitting the water "GAH!" She held her hands towards her face to shield her eyes from the water attempting to penetrate her eyes.

"Sorry!" He giggled as he swam away when Yugi advanced towards him, hoping to get payback for the onslaught.

"Get here!" She chuckled when Jaden shook his head violently and ducked under water, only to resurface later with a shocked expression "Yami is coming!" He cried out as he made a failed attempt to flee the male who was currently pursuing him.

Yugi looked on in confusion before she smiled "When did you get here Yami?"

"Just now!" He rose from the water. taking a few breaths as he did so "I heard you guys out here, so why not join?" He turned his gaze towards Jaden who grasped a beach ball, just to throw it in the air and catch it.

"Oh." She stared at the male intently "What took you so long?" Seriously, what did take him this long? Her and Jaden had a long conversation and even got dressed before Yami emerged.

"Well I unpacked your clothes and put them away, it saves you doing them" He smiled down at Yugi as he brought her into his arms.

"You didn't need to do that, thank you anyway." She leaned forward to kiss his cheek "You're too good, you know that?"

"I do" He chuckled as his fingers subconsciously drew circles and lines on Yugi's back. "Anything for you."

Yugi stared into Yami's beautiful crimson pools that she's come to adore over the months. Her arms encircled around his neck loosely though she brought their bodies closer. After a while, she let one arm drop to his bicep where she trailed her fingers up and down his flesh in a loving gesture. She felt his body shiver beneath her touch and smiled "Jaden loves you."

"I love Jaden."

She nodded "I know" She halted in caressing his arms so her hands can return to its previous place encircled around his neck.

Yami leaned forward so their foreheads touched. His breathing was heavy as both closed their eyes, loving being in each others arms. It was somewhat magical for the both of them.

"Yami?" He gave a nod in reply so she continued "Do you want to see my wings?"

His eyes widened "You have wings?" His voice took on a tone of disbelief which made Yugi grin at his expression. She hadn't shown him her wings or even spoke of them so he's oblivious to her body storing such a thing.

Grin widening she nodded. Yugi untangled herself from Yami's embrace to swim towards the edge and haul herself up out of the water. She turned towards Yami who was following her every move, his eyes still held disbelief. She gave a smile when he hopped out and walked towards her, his expression curious. "Well do you?"

He nodded "Yes.." He made sure to give her enough room so she could show him. He didn't know how big these 'wings' were, after all.

"Okay" She gave a breathy chuckle before relaxing her body. She focused on her wings, breaking them from their confines so they could shoot out of her body, in turn freeing them. She groaned when her wings were set free, it was bliss. She glanced at Yami who was staring at her, his mouth open and eyes wide in amazement. She moved her muscles so her wings flexed. She walked towards the stock-still male who immediately snapped out of his shock at her advance.

"Yugi.." His voice was a mere whisper as his gaze never left the amethyst wings that stood sizably voluminous and proud behind Yugi's back. "They're beautiful.." He sauntered forward, his arm stretched outwards in a silent question to touch the exquisite wings before him. Gods.. The sight of Yugi right now was breathtaking.

Yugi looked dubious at his silent question, however, she gave in. Turning around, she gave Yami an invitation to stroke her wings. He wasted no time in doing just that. Yugi's eyes were shut painfully tight as she felt Yami's fingers move delicately over her overly sensitive muscle. He seemed shy and hesitant at first until he started to fully stroke her wings in a gesture that had Yugi holding in her moans. She bit her lip harshly as a moan attempted to fall off her lips. Blood trailed down her newly bruised lip as it made a journey down her chin. Her fangs accidentally came out in the process which didn't help. She was on cloud nine, she didn't want such a thing to stop. She wanted to move more in Yami's embrace, but that wouldn't end well. He's seducing her and succeeding, Yami doesn't even know it. His talented fingers brushed past an overly sensitive spot that made her body tingle all over. She couldn't help the words that past her lips "Fuck.." Once those words left her bruised lips the hands halted in their exploration.

"Yugi?" Yami asked as he reached for Yugi's shoulders to turn her around to face him. His eyes widened "Shit.. What happened?" He stared at the blood dripping down Yugi's chin with concern. He was sure the crimson substance wasn't there before..

Yugi's eyes snapped open to reveal a tenebrous shade of amethyst. The look made Yami recoil back at the way Yugi was staring at him. Maybe he did something he shouldn't have done. He watched intently as Yugi shook her head in an endeavor to clear her mind. Her gaze fixated on Yami and she gave a shy smile "Sorry.."

"What the hell happened?" He raised a hand towards Yugi's face to caress the skin.

"I guess I forgot to tell you how sensitive wings to us vampires are" She rubbed her head sheepishly "I also forgot to tell you that it's also known as an intimate gesture." She wiped the blood away with the back of her hand "The pleasure I was enduring was almost unbearable.."

"If I had known.."

"You wouldn't have done it?" She chuckled "I didn't hate it, it was satisfying, to say the least. You're the only person that's ever touched my wings before."

"Ra.. Are you serious?" His voice held a tone of shock as he looked in Yugi's eyes "I'm the only one with the honor to do such a thing?"

"I wouldn't say it's an honor" She rolled her eyes "But yes, you're the only other person that's touched my wings.."

He smiled as he brought Yugi into his arms "Thankyou for letting me see and feel such beauty. Your wings are perfection, just like you."

Yugi leaned forward marginally so her lips connected with Yami's in a chaste kiss "Be mine?" She asked when she pulled back to look him in the eyes. The guy who held her protectively in his arms made her feel all these incipient emotions that she couldn't help those two words escape her lips. She's ready for something new.. She's ready to start a life with Yami, together.

"I was already yours" He held her chin with his fingertips as he stared lovingly into the eyes he came to adore. He watched as Yugi gave a smile which he couldn't help but return. He leaned forward to bring their lips back together lovingly. She's his now, just like he was hoping for from the start. Yugi is gorgeous..

Jaden watched the scene with a huge smile on his face. He's happy that Yugi has finally accepted her feelings. Even if it's not love just yet, he knows it will soon form to something much more in the future. Time is all it takes. They have plenty of that.

He giggled to himself as he walked into the house only to hear a knock on the door. He quickly ran towards the door and opened it.

"Hey son, is your mother or father here? We're the moving team."

"I'll get them!"

This is not the end.. It may seem it due to Yugi and Yami being together, but it's not, I have more planned out for them;3

There may be another chapter later because this one is early. But if there's not then they'll definitely be another one tomorrow c;
