Enjoy!


Chapter 20- I Choose You

A storm was raging in the Millennial Kingdom. The wind was howling, the thunder was so loud it seemed to shake the ground, the lightening flashed bright enough to light up the entire kingdom, and it was raining so hard that it was next to impossible to see anything.

However, the storm raging in the kingdom was nothing compared to the storm that was raging in Yugi's heart.

Yugi was heartbroken by the fact that he had had to leave Yami again. Yugi loved Yami with all his heart, but he knew that their duties forced them to be apart. He knew that they couldn't be together.

But that didn't stop the pain.

Yugi was crying into his pillow as his heart was being ripped apart. 'Why does it have to hurt so much? I knew that I would have to leave Yami, so why does it have to hurt this much?' Yugi asked himself.

Firestar lay on the bed with Yugi, watching his master cry. The tiger could feel his heart wrench painfully as he watched his master cry out his pain. 'Oh, master. I wish that there was something that I could do, but there is nothing that I can do about this. This is something that no one can help him with.' Firestar thought, knowing that there was only one thing that would help Yugi in this situation.

Unable to stand being there any longer, Yugi sat up and got dressed, though not as fancily as he did when he was about during the day.

"Master?" Firestar questioned as Yugi went to the door.

"I'm going for a walk, Firestar. I would rather be alone." Yugi said before he left the room.

Firestar sighed. He knew that that meant that Yugi didn't want him to follow him. After waiting a few moments, Firestar got off the bed and followed Yugi out the door.

Just because Yugi wanted to be alone didn't mean that Firestar would stray that far from him. He would be close by in case something happened, and Yugi needed his help for any reason.


The palace looked dead.

It was the middle of the night in the Millennial Kingdom. No one was up except for Yugi who was currently roaming the palace.

It was too much for Yugi to be in his room because he and Yami had spent so many wonderful nights together. It was just too much.

'I can't do this. I want to be with Yami. I don't know if I am going to be able to handle being apart from him for the rest of my life.' Yugi thought as the tears started to come again.

Coming to the gardens, Yugi walked out into them, completely ignoring the storm that was raging on. Yugi was now getting soaking wet, but Yugi couldn't care less.

Standing in the storm, Yugi looked up at the night sky. 'I suppose I am doomed to be alone.' Yugi thought, knowing that no one would be able to take his place.


A bright lit filled the palace, and Yami entered the palace. He looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that he was, indeed, in the Millennial Kingdom.

'Yugi, I'm here, and I'm not going to be leaving you again.' Yami thought. He started down the hallway toward Yugi's room.

On the way, Yami ran into Firestar.

"Yami! What are you doing here?!" Firestar asked, startled to see him there.

"I'll explain later. I need to see Yugi. There's something that I need to tell him." Yami said as he started down the hall.

Firestar ran and got in front of Yami. "He's not in his room." Firestar said.

"Where is he?" Yami asked.

"Why are you making this harder for him, Yami? It's hard enough on him for you two to leave each other as it is." Firestar said, not wanting to make it any harder on his master than he had to.

"I know, Firestar. It was hard for me to, but that doesn't matter now. I've decided that I'm going to stay here." Yami said.

"You are?" Firestar asked, surprised.

Yami nodded. "I would rather spend the rest of my life here with Yugi than stay in Egypt and be miserable." Yami said.

This made Firestar very happy. "As I said, Master Yugi is not in his room. He's out in the gardens." Firestar said.

"The gardens?" Yami asked. He turned and looked outside to see it raining in torrents and a flash of lightening lighted the sky followed by a loud crash of the thunder and the howling of the wind.

"I'm afraid so. Rain or shine, when he's upset, he goes out there." Firestar said.

Yami then started to go out into the gardens.

Firestar watched him go with a smile on his face. 'This is great! I don't know what happened to make Yami change his mind, but I'm glad that he did. Now, neither one of them have to suffer.' Firestar thought, knowing that this is what was meant to happen.


Yugi was still standing in the rain, looking up into the night sky. He was completely soaked, but he couldn't care less. He had no plans on leaving any time soon.

Yugi could feel his heart breaking even more. He just wanted to be with Yami, but he couldn't leave. A quiet sob escaped from Yugi's lips as he said, "I miss you, Yami."

"I know, Yugi. I missed you, too."

Yugi turned around in the rain to find Yami standing behind him. Yugi was surprised at this. "Y-Yami?" Yugi asked, wanting to make sure that he hadn't finally lost his mind.

Yami walked toward him. "Yugi, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Yami said.

"What?" Yugi asked.

"Yugi, I couldn't have been more wrong. I shouldn't have left you in the first place. I should never have left." Yami said.

"You didn't have a choice." Yugi said.

"Yes, I did." Yami said firmly. He walked forward a few more steps until he and Yugi were barely a foot apart. "It was always my choice. I could have stayed before, and I didn't. I should have stayed. I am so sorry, Yugi. I should have stayed here because that's all I wanted to do." Yami said.

"Yami, you had a duty to Egypt. I understand." Yugi said.

"No, Yugi! It's not all right!" Yami said as a loud crash of thunder hit. "It was never all right. I wasn't needed in Egypt. Atemu's the Crown Prince. He's the one that is going to be Pharaoh. I always knew that. I knew that I could have stayed, but I chose not to. This is all my fault. I could have stopped us both from going through all that pain!" Yami said as he also started to cry.

"Yami, what are you saying?" Yugi asked.

Yami reached up and cupped Yugi's face in his hands. "What I'm saying is that I came here for one reason. I can't live without you, Yugi. The first time we separated, it was easy because I had that deal of finding the Millennium items to keep me distracted, but this last time, it nearly killed me. I couldn't stand it, Yugi. All I wanted was to be with you. That's why I made the choice I did." Yami said.

"Yami, there was never a choice." Yugi said.

"Yes, there was, Yugi. There was always a choice. Heba told me something important. He asked me what I would regret more: leaving Egypt to come and be with you or staying in Egypt and giving up everything that we could have had together. That wasn't a hard choice to make once I thought about it." Yami said.

"Yami." Yugi breathed.

"I will always choose you over everyone else. My heart belongs to you, Yugi. No one else. I want to be with you. If it's not too late, I want to stay here with you." Yami said.

Yugi couldn't stop the quiet sob from escaping his lips. "Of course I want you. I want you to stay here, Yami. I don't want to lose you." Yugi said.

"I don't want that, either." Yami said.

Yami then leaned down and captured Yugi's lips with his own. Yugi reached up and wrapped his arms around Yami's neck as he deepened the kiss. Yami then wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist.

Neither cared that the storm was still raging on or that they were both soaked to the bone.

The storms in their hearts had ended, and they were both happy.

When the need for air became too much, the two broke apart.

"I love you, Yugi, and I am not going to leave you ever again." Yami said.

"I love you, too, Yami." Yugi said.

Yami leaned down and kissed Yugi again.


Firestar watched the scene from within the dry palace. He smiled when he saw the two kiss each other.

'At least I don't have to worry about those two now. I don't know what happened to change Yami's mind, but I'm glad that he's back. They deserve to be together.' Firestar thought.

Knowing that Yugi and Yami would want to be alone for a while, Firestar turned around and walked back into the palace, going to the room that Yami had first found the tigers in during his six-month stay.


Yugi opened the door to his room, and he and Yami walked into it, dripping wet.

"We are soaked." Yugi said.

"Well, we were out in the storm for a while, and you were out in it a lot longer than I was." Yami said.

"Well, you know that I always go out into the gardens to think." Yugi said.

Yami reached up and brushed some of Yugi's went bags from his eyes. "We're going to have to discuss you going out in the middle of a storm. You don't need to get sick all the time." Yami said.

Yugi smiled. "I get it, Yami." Yugi said.

Yami leaned forward and kissed Yugi again. He broke the kiss, but didn't let his lips move far from Yugi's. "You know, we should probably get out of these wet clothes and dry off before we both get sick." Yami said.

"Yeah. You're probably right." Yugi agreed. He started to take off his shirt, but Yami's hands on his stopped him.

"Let me." Yami said.

Yugi nodded his agreement.

LEMON STARTS HERE!

Yami then unbuttoned Yugi's shirt before he pushed the shirt off of Yugi's shoulders and onto the floor at their feet. Yami took in the sight of Yugi's bare chest before he leaned down and kissed Yugi.

Yugi closed his eyes and moaned into the kiss. He raised his hands to take off Yami's shirt, but his hands came into contact with the Millennium Puzzle. Taking hold of the chain, Yugi broke the kiss so that he could take the puzzle from around Yami's neck and placed it on the table near him.

Yami then pulled Yugi back into a kiss.

Yugi then unbuttoned Yami's shirt before he pushed the shirt off of Yami and into the floor as well.

Yami's hands were exploring Yugi's wet, bare back, relishing in the feeling of having his lover back in his arms, for good this time.

Yugi raised his hands and tangled them in Yami's hair, pressing Yami deeper into the kiss.

Yami then broke the kiss before he picked Yugi up bridal style in his arms.

"Yami?" Yugi asked as he looked up into Yami's eyes.

"I'm sorry, Yugi, but I want to feel you again." Yami said softly.

Yugi could see the love in Yami's eyes. Love overpowered the lust, but it was clear that Yami wanted Yugi.

"That's what I want, too." Yugi said.

Yami then walked over to the bed and gently placed Yugi on the bed before he climbed onto the bed with Yugi, straddling Yugi at the waist. He leaned down and kissed Yugi again.

Yugi moaned and immediately opened his mouth.

Yami slipped his tongue inside of Yugi's mouth, starting to explore his lover's cavern. When Yami broke the kiss, he started to lay light kisses on Yugi's jaw and started to trail them down his neck.

Yugi moaned and leaned his head backwards, giving Yami more room.

Grateful for the room, Yami started to kiss down kiss down Yugi's neck. When Yami reached Yugi's pulse point, he started to suck on Yugi's neck, drawing an even louder moan from Yugi. When Yami was done, he left a nice bruise.

"Now, everyone will know that you're mine." Yami told Yugi softly.

Yugi shivered slightly at the warm breath on his neck. "It won't be long before everyone knows that anyway." Yugi replied.

Yami chuckled. "That may be true, but I want to make sure that they know." Yami said.

Before Yugi could say anything more, Yami continued with his actions. He started to kiss down Yugi's chest, making sure to kiss, lick, and nip at every inch of Yugi's pale skin.

When Yami reached one of Yugi's nipples, he brought the little nub into his mouth, starting to suck on it.

"Yami!" Yugi exclaimed.

Yami ignored the cry as he continued to suck on the little nub until it was hard. When he was done, Yami pulled away and blew gently on the nub, causing Yugi to shiver lightly. He then turned his attention to the other nipple, giving it the same treatment.

Once he was done with the nipples. Yami continued down his path on Yugi's body.

Yugi moaned as felt Yami place kisses down his stomach.

When Yami reached Yugi's naval, he dipped his tongue in several times before he continued on.

Not being able to go any further, Yami sat up and took Yugi's boots and socks off before he threw them to the floor. He then reached forward and started to undo Yugi's belt. "I don't think that you're going to be needing these anymore tonight." Yami said as he pulled Yugi's pants and boxers off and threw them into the floor as well.

Yugi shivered as the cool air hit his semi-erect member.

Yami smiled before he reached out and ran his finger down the underside of Yugi's member.

Yugi shivered at the contact.

Smiling, Yami wrapped his hand around Yugi's member and started to pump Yugi.

"Yami!" Yugi groaned as he felt the hand pump him.

Yami smirked and started to pump Yugi even harder.

"Ah! Yami!" Yugi cried, arching his back a little.

Yami then stopped pumping him, much to Yugi's disappointment. Yami placed his hands on Yugi's hips before he leaned down and licked the tip of Yugi's member, tasting the pre-cum that had leaked.

"Yami!" Yugi groaned, trying to buck up.

Yami chuckled. "What what is it, Yugi?" Yami asked.

"Yami, please." Yugi said in a pleading tone.

"Please what?" Yami asked.

"Yami, please. Go on." Yugi said, getting desperate. He really wanted to feel Yami suck him off.

"Say it, Yugi. What is it that you want me to do?" Yami asked, wanting to hear Yugi beg him for it.

"I want you, Yami. Please. Suck me." Yugi said.

Yami smirked. He then leaned down and took the tip of Yugi's member into his mouth.

"Ah! Yami!" Yugi cried as he reached down to grasp the sheets in his hands.

Yami then started to suck lightly on Yugi's member, wanting to dram it out. He then started to bob his head up and down on Yugi's member, making sure to let his teeth graze the heated flesh.

"Ah! Yami! Please! Don't tease me!" Yugi begged.

Yami had wanted to draw this out, but hearing his lover plead with him was too much for him to resist. He then started to suck on Yugi's member hard.

"AH!" Yugi cried as he tightened his grip on the sheets.

Yami wanted to taste Yugi again, so he started to suck even harder on Yugi, wanting to make him come.

"Ah! Y-Yami, I-I can-can't hold I-it much l-longer." Yugi said, panting.

Yami ignored Yugi's words and continued to suck on Yugi.

Reaching his breaking point, Yugi threw his head back and came into Yami's mouth, crying, "YAMI!"

Yami swallowed every drop that Yugi released before he finally let go of Yugi's member.

Yugi was panting and sweating, adding to his already wet skin.

Yami smiled. He then leaned forward to kiss Yugi.

Yugi could taste himself on Yami's lips, and that made him start to get hard again.

Yami then broke the kiss. "Hmm. You taste absolutely divine, Yugi." Yami said.

Yugi blushed. "Stop it, Yami." Yugi said.

"I can't. I just can't help how I feel for you." Yami said.

Yugi smirked. "Then maybe you should remember something." Yugi said.

"What?" Yami asked.

Yami then yelped on surprise as Yugi suddenly pounced on Yami, knocking him onto his back with Yugi straddling his waist.

"That I am stronger than you. And I like to be on top, too." Yugi said.

"Hmm. I think that could get used to that." Yami said, smiling.

Yugi leaned down and kissed Yami quickly before he started to trail kissed down Yami's neck. At Yami's collarbone, Yugi bent down lightly, making Yami yelp in surprise at the sudden pain. Yugi then licked the wound before he continued.

Yugi kissed at every inch of Yami's chest before he circled one nipple with his tongue and then started to suck on the nub.

"Ah! Yugi!" Yami groaned.

Yugi sucked on the nub until it was hard before he turned his attention to Yam's other nipple, giving it the exact same treatment.

Once done, Yugi trailed kisses down Yami's stomach and dipped his tongue in Yami's naval several times.

Yami was already panting lightly from this.

Yugi then sat up and took Yami's shoes and socks off quickly before he undid Yami's belt and took off Yami's pants and boxers, throwing them into the floor with his clothes.

Yugi then straddled Yami's waist.

Yami groaned when he felt their members connect. "What are you-Ah!" Yami was cut off when Yugi suddenly ground their hips together.

"What? I thought you'd like that." Yugi said as he ground his hips into Yami's again, getting Yami to cry out again.

Yugi ground his hips into Yami harder and deeper each time.

"Yugi! Please!" Yami said.

Yugi chuckled. "All right." Yugi said. He then placed his hands on Yami's hips before he leaned down and licked the tip of Yami's member, getting Yami to cry out at the action. He then started to lick Yami's member from tip to base and then back again until he had licked every inch of Yami's member.

By the time Yugi was done, Yami was trembling from his actions.

"What's wrong, Yami?" Yugi asked.

"Yugi, please." Yami begged, needing relief.

Yugi smirked evilly. "I don't know. I rather enjoy torturing you like this." Yugi said.

"Yugi! I can't stand this!" Yami said. He was sure that he had never been harder in his life.

Yugi laughed. "All right then." Yugi said. He had another plan in mind for his lover. He reached over to the table and grabbed the bottle of lube from it. "I'll give you the relief I want. My way." Yugi said.

Yami realized what Yugi wanted and couldn't wait.

"Get on your hands and kneed." Yugi commanded.

Yami did as he was told, turning over on the bed and getting on his hands and knees.

Yugi then opened the lube and dipped three fingers into it before he put the lube aside for now. He circled one finger around Yami's entrance before he slipped it inside.

Yami gasped at the finger inside of him.

Yugi moved the finger around until he was sure that Yami had been stretched enough and added in a second finger.

Yami tensed slightly at this finger.

"Yami, you have to relax." Yugi said.

Yami knew that he was right and forced his body to relax.

Yugi started to move his fingers in a scissor-like motion, stretching Yami. He then added in a third finger. This finger brushed against Yami's prostate.

"YUGI!" Yami exclaimed, arching his back.

Yugi smirked and thrust his fingers into that spot as he stretched Yami even more.

When he saw sure that Yami was ready, Yugi removed his fingers, getting a groan of disappointment from Yami.

Yugi laughed and said, "Don't worry, Yami. I'm not done yet." He took the lube and coated his member in it before he wrapped an arm around Yami's waist and positioned himself at Yami's entrance. "Ready?" Yugi whispered into Yami's ear.

Yami shivered at the breath on his ear and nodded.

Without waiting any longer, Yugi thrust all the way into Yami, striking his prostate on the first try.

"AH! YUGI!" Yami exclaimed.

Yugi remained still, letting Yami adjust.

"Yugi! Move!" Yami hissed.

Yugi did as told and pulled out until only the tip of Yugi's member was left in him before he thrust back in hard.

"Ah!" Yami cried as his prostate was struck rather roughly

Yugi continued with the slow pulling out and the fast thrusting in for a while.

Soon, Yami grew tired of this pace and said, "Yugi, please. Harder. Faster."

Yugi did as requested and pulled out and started to thrust in and out of Yami faster.

"Ah! Yugi! Oh! So good!" Yami groaned.

"Yami! Tight! Hot!" Yugi growled.

The two continued with their fast pace as they both thrust against each other.

Soon, Yami could feel himself reaching his end. "Y-Yugi. I-I'm close." Yami panted.

"I know, Yami. So am I." Yugi answered.

Yugi reached around and grasped Yami's member, starting to pump him in time with his thrusts.

Yami was the first one to reach his end. "YUGI!" Yami groaned as he released all over Yugi's hand and the bed sheets below.

Yugi felt Yami clench around him and he was thrown over the edge as well. "YAMI!" Yugi moaned as he released as well.

LEMON ENDS HERE!

The two were tense before they collapsed onto the bed, panting.

Yugi was the first to recover. He sat up and pulled out of Yami. "So, how was that?" Yugi asked.

"Wonderful." Yami replied before he rolled onto his back to look up at Yugi.

Yugi smiled. "I'm glad of that." Yugi said. He then raised his hand to lick off Yamis' release from his hand.

"You tease!" Yami growled.

Yugi smirked at him. "So do something about it." Yugi said.

Yami then had a smirk of his own. "I intend to." Yami said.

Yugi was surprised when Yami jumped on him and pinned him to the bed.

"You've had me. Now, I want you." Yami said.

Yugi smiled. "Go ahead." Yugi said.

LEMON STARTS HERE!

Yami grabbed the lube while Yugi spread his legs for Yami.

Yami settled between Yugi's legs before he slipped one slick finger into Yugi. Yami moved the finger around a bit before he slipped the second one inside.

Yugi tensed, but forced his body to relax.

Yami started to scissor the two fingers, and once he was satisfied, he added in the third, stretching Yugi even more. He then removed his fingers, causing Yugi to groan in annoyance.

"We're not done, yet." Yami assured him. He then used the lube to slick his erection before he positioned himself at Yugi's entrance.

Yugi lifted his legs and wrapped them around Yami's waist while he wrapped his arms around Yami's neck.

Yami then thrust all the way into Yugi.

"Ah!" Yugi cried as Yami struck his prostate immediately.

Yami smirked and pulled out only to thrust back in. He set a fast, rough pace for them.

"Ah! Yami!" Yugi cried as he tightened his legs around Yami's waist.

"Yugi! Damn it, you're tight!" Yami groaned.

The two moved against each other at a fast pace, enjoying being together again.

"Yami! Ah! So good! Don't stop!" Yugi moaned.

"Yugi! So tight! So hot! Wonderful!" Yami groaned.

It wasn't long before Yugi could feel himself reaching his end.

"Y-Yami, I-I'm close." Yugi said.

"I-I know, Y-Yugi. So a-am I." Yami replied.

Yami reached down and started to stroke Yugi's member in time with his thrusts.

Yugi soon reached his end. "YAMI!" Yugi cried as he released over Yami's hand and their chests and stomachs.

Yami felt Yugi clench around him tightly, and he lost it. "YUGI!" Yami moaned as he thrust deeply into Yugi once more before he released inside of Yugi.

LEMON ENDS HERE!

Once more, the two collapsed with Yami on top of Yugi.

After the two recovered, Yami pulled out of Yugi and rolled over to the side. He then wrapped his arms around Yugi and pulled Yugi up against him while Yugi cuddled up to him.

"Hmm. That was amazing." Yugi said.

"I know. You were really tight." Yamis aid.

Yugi laughed. "Well, I hadn't been with anyone since the last time we had been together." Yugi answered.

Yami held Yugi tightly. "Yugi, I'm sorry for leaving. I shouldn't-" Yami started.

Yugi leaned up and kissed Yami to silence him. "Yami, it's in the past, and it's over. We're together now, and that's all that matters." Yugi said.

Yami smiled. "You're right." Yami agreed.

The two then cuddled up together.

"I love you, Yugi." Yami said as he kissed the top of Yugi's head.

"I love you, too, Yami." Yugi replied.

The two soon fell asleep.


"I just wish my brother wasn't so stupid.' Atemu said as he paced the room.

Heba and Atemu couldn't sleep. Heba couldn't sleep from nausea, and Atemu was still angry at Yami.

"Calm down, Atemu." Heba said. He was looking though the pregnancy book. He made a face and said, "I am never having sex again."

"Still, I wish that Yami would think." Atemu said.

"Até, he's already made his decision." Heba said.

Atemu stopped pacing and said, "How do you know?"

"I sensed a portal open to the Millennial Kingdom, and I can't sense Yami's presence now. He went there." Heba said.

Atemu smiled. "Then we went back to Yugi." Atemu said.

"Yes." Heba answered.

A thought hit Atemu. "Why don't you want to have sex again?" Atemu asked.

Heba showed him the book, which was at the birthing process.

Atemu looked and said, "I am never having sex again!"

Heba collapsed into laughter.


Hope you liked it.

Note 1: I know that most people knew Yugi and Yami would get together. I know that I am predictable in this aspect, but I love happy endings. I can't help it.

Note 2: I thought Yugi and Yami reuniting in the rain was apporopiate for some reason. Don't ask me why.

Note 3: Also, the bit with Atemu and Heba not wanting to have sex after seeing the book is something that I got from an episode of Reba when Van and Cheyanne had Elizabeth. I didn't come up with that.

Next: Some explanations.

R&R.
