Disclaimer: I don't own YGO!

I'm SO sorry I haven't updated in so long…please don't kill me. I've been really busy (not to mention lazy), and I was having a little trouble figuring out what to put in this chapter. And also, I've been coming up with new story ideas so I worked on them a little. On the bright side though, I think this is a decent, longer-than-usual chapter…but that's just my opinion.

WARNINGS: little swearing, MAJOR shonen ai (but not lemon), and a VERY little mention of sex.

ENJOY!

Chapter 26: The New House

Love. Warmth. Security. Calmness.

All of these feelings entered Yugi's mind as he laid in bed with Yami. His rich amethyst eyes slowly opened to see the beautiful, tan skin of Yami's bare breast. Yugi smiled and snuggled even closer to the person he loved, placing a fast, little kiss on the nipple that was near his mouth before closing his eyes again. Yami stirred and hugged Yugi harder against his body with his arms which had been around Yugi all night. Both Yami and Yugi felt that they could just melt into the other's embrace because of the very close contact their bodies had. Yami moved his head a little until his mouth was near Yugi's little ear.

"Ohayo gozaimasu, Aibou", he whispered.

Yugi smiled, "Ohayo gozaimasu, Yami."

Yami gave a pleasured moan before he moved Yugi's (and his own) body until Yami was perched on top of Yugi's thighs. Heads moved closer together until lips (that were needy for contact) collided against each other. Yugi placed his hands against the mattress and pushed up against Yami's lips. Yugi's legs also wrapped themselves up around Yami's thin waist. Yami lightly pressed his tongue to Yugi's lips, "asking" to deepen their morning kiss; Yugi immediately opened up. Two tongues met in the middle and began to gently poke and stroke each other. As this was happening, Yami's hands were running up and down Yugi's sides, making Yugi moan in pleasure at the feeling. Soon though, Yami managed to take Yugi's pajama top off, and his hands caressed a little harder. Yugi couldn't hold his body up like this any more, so he allowed Yami to push him down to the pillows; his hands going up to Yami's bare, warm back and caressing it lovingly. Occasionally, the two young men's heads had to separate so they could fill their lungs with oxygen, but they immediately came back together once enough air was in them. Still kissing Yugi, Yami's hands wandered lower until they were at the waistband of Yugi's pajama pants. Yugi's eyes snapped open as he felt how far Yami wanted to go, and he gently pushed Yami away.

Yami looked at Yugi, confused, "What's wrong, Aibou?" he asked, breathing heavily.

"N-no, Y-Yami…please…I'm not ready yet."

"What do you mean?"

"My body still hurts…if it didn't, I would love to have sex with you, but not today…I'm sorry, Yami."

Yami kissed Yugi's sweaty forehead, "Okay, Aibou, I understand."

Yugi smiled and let his hands roam around on Yami's chest, brushing both nipples until they were hard. Once Yugi was done, Yami rolled off of Yugi and laid on his side. Yami then ran his hand through Yugi's golden spikes, letting them run in-between his fingers.

"Are you going to start looking for a house today, Yami?"

"Yeah…I'll drive around and ask people…and if that doesn't work…I'll call some people on the phone. The newspaper might have something too."

Yugi snuggled closer to Yami, "Thank you."

"Actually, I should start looking right now."

"So you're just going to leave me!" Yugi fake-whined.

Yami kissed Yugi's forehead, "You're the one who wants to move", he teased.

Yugi playfully stuck his tongue out at Yami before allowing him to leave the bed and get dressed.

"You want some breakfast first?" Yugi asked, hopping out of the bed and running to Yami's side.

Yami smiled as he pulled his shirt over his head and he wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist, "Only if you make it", Yami replied, lifting Yugi up into the air with his powerful arms and cradling him.

Yugi giggled as Yami carried him out of their bedroom and to the kitchen (Yugi's still in his pajama pants and shirtless).

"I was hoping to get dressed first though, Yami!" Yugi laughed as Yami set him down before the stove.

"Nah…you don't need to get dressed…you look better this way."

Yugi blushed, "What should I make?"

"Hmm…any good at making bacon and toast?"

"Yeah…I've cooked bacon before and I'm positive that there's some in the fridge. But I think you can handle the toast part", Yugi smiled and kissed Yami's lips.

Yami watched with love-filled eyes as his half-naked hikari bounced to the refrigerator, opened it, and grabbed the package of bacon. Yugi looked at Yami and Yami held up two fingers, signaling that he wanted only strips of bacon. Yugi carefully laid the two strips on the skillet and turned on the stove to the right temperature mark. As his bacon was cooking, Yami slipped in a piece of bread in the toaster and pulled the lever down (after checking to make sure that it was plugged in). And Yugi took the job of moving the bacon around when necessary. As they both waited for the food to be done, Yami stepped behind Yugi and rested his hands on Yugi's thighs. Yugi relaxed and leaned back against his love. Yami turned his head and kissed Yugi's cheek, making Yugi let out a moan of pleasure.

POP!

Both Yami and Yugi jumped at the unexpected sound of the toast popping up.

"Oh my god! That scared the shit out of me!" Yami said, holding Yugi close.

Yugi turned around until he was facing Yami, and he put his index finger on Yami's lips, "Now now, Yami, you don't need to curse because of a little piece of toasted bread!"

Yami smiled and placed a soft kiss on the finger over his lips. He then went over to the toaster, and took out the piece of bread. After setting it on the counter, he blanketed lots of yummy jelly on it. As he walked to the table, Yami saw his steaming, delicious-looking bacon just begging to be eaten being placed at his eating place by Yugi. Soon after Yami sat down, a large glass of orange juice was also placed before him by his smiling hikari.

"Arigato", Yami happily said.

Yugi smiled and placed a fast kiss on Yami's cheek. In about fifteen minutes, Yami finished. Yugi approached Yami again and took his plate, glass, and eating utensils to the sink for washing.

"Planning to be a waitress now?" Yami joked.

"Ha Ha Ha!" Yugi laughed sarcastically, rinsing off the plate.

Yami smiled and picked up a newspaper. His eyes grew wider as he gazed at an ad.

"Hmm."

"What, Yami?"

"Ads for houses…and they're near here too."

"Ooo!"

"I'll go check these out first probably. Did you want to come with?"

"No thanks, Yami. I'll stay here and clean…I think you should have enough sense to know what a good house is anyway."

After giving Yugi a quick kiss on the lips, Yami grabbed the car keys and the newspaper and headed out the door.

Xx 25 minutes later xX

Yami arrived at the first house. But he didn't even bother to get out and look at it because the outside was in very bad condition. The screens on the windows and door were torn, some paint was chipping away on some parts, and there was tons of trash littering the front yard.

Who would want to live in this?

Yami quickly moved on. Luckily, the next house was only about 15 miles away.

Xx 20 minutes later xX

Yami parked his car along-side the road and stepped out, opened-mouthed. The house before him was like a mansion! It was three stories high and it had a basement. The siding on the outside was a beautiful brown color, giving the house a foresty look (and there happened to be lots of woods surrounding the area). The garage that was attached to the house was also very big; PLENTY of room for two cars and storage. Gorgeous brick sidewalks had also been installed along the main paths. The front lawn was a good size too and there was no sign of trash like the other house. To the right on the outside stood a tall chimney; obviously pointing out that the house contained a fireplace. There were also big, unmarked windows all over, reflecting the sun's light beautifully. (A/N: This is my first time describing a house…so that's why the description is bad.)

Yugi will definitely love this house, Yami thought, and we have plenty of money to pay for it…no matter what the cost.

As Yami walked closer to the front door, a woman stepped out.

"Good morning, Sir", she happily said.

"Hello", Yami replied, dipping his head, "I'm interested in buying this house. May I have a look inside?"

"Oh yes! Yes! Please come in!"

The woman jumped aside as Yami walked in, and then she followed behind. Politely, Yami took his shoes off after he entered.

"I can't believe nobody has bought this house yet; it's gorgeous!" Yami exclaimed.

"Thank you. But its cost is so high that not many people bother to look it over."

"Well I have a good amount of money, so I'll most likely but this house. Do you live alone?" Yami asked, looking around the vacant house.

"Oh no! My husband and 12-year-old son are at our new house…I'm just here to sell this house. Why do you ask? Are you looking for a spouse?" She giggled.

"No, no. I…uh…already have a…spouse."

"Ooo…are you moving in here to have children?"

"Good gracious no! We don't have any children…and we're not planning to have any either."

"Oh."

Deciding to drop the subject, the woman led Yami through the big house, pointing out important things or places. There was a huge living room which contained a fireplace and many comfortable looking chairs and couches. The house also contained three bathrooms, five separate bedrooms (which were big), many closets, a big, beautiful kitchen, two plain rooms like for a computer or something, and even a screened-in porch.

"The furniture in the living room…are you taking that to your other house?" Yami asked.

"No…you could call it a bonus to this house…so if you buy this house, the furniture in here would then be yours."

"That's nice", Yami replied, "This house is gorgeous though! I'll talk it over with my…spouse tonight and call you back in the morning to tell you our decision."

"Why didn't she just come today with you?"

"…uh…she's busy packing and stuff."

"Oh…okay…thank you so much for going over the house with me…we've been trying to get rid of it for a long time."

"You're welcome. May I have your phone number?"

"Oh, yes", she said, quickly writing the number down on a piece of paper. She then handed it to Yami, "There you go, Sir."

"Thank you", Yami replied, dipping his head and accepting the scrap of paper, "I'll call you in the morning."

"Okay. Bye!"

"Bye", Yami replied, stepping outside.

YGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGOYGO

The familiar sound of a car coming up the driveway reached Yugi's ears, "Yami!"

Yugi quickly set the magazine that he was reading down on the coffee table before jumping up and running out the door.

"Yami!" Yugi cheerfully said, wrapping his arms around Yami's waist.

Yami chuckled and ruffled Yugi's hair, "Hello, Yugi."

"Did you find anything?"

"Yes I did…but can I at least get into the house first?"

Yugi smiled and let go of Yami. They both walked into the house and sat down on their couch.

"I found a beautiful house, Yugi, you would love it, trust me. It's big and roomy…there's a nice yard surrounding the area…it's just beautiful."

Yugi nuzzled Yami's neck with his nose, "I'm sure that I'll love it…how soon can we move in?"

"Well if we're ambitious, we can move in a few days. But we'll have to get everything packed and stuff. At least we don't have that much around to pack."

"What's going to happen to this house?"

"Heheh…I talked to Jonouchi on my way home and he said that he would move in here…but I told him that he didn't have to pay us…we already have plenty of money. This house would sure be better then his apartment anyway."

"Okay. Sounds like a plan."

Yami wrapped an arm around Yugi, "So…do you want to help me start packing? I know that we have a closet with lots of boxes to use to put things in."

"Sure, Yami", Yugi smiled.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
