Nickey: Alright! Hey everyone! I did finally get a new computer, so I'll work my way back into regular updates. I am however still trying to reorganize everything and get all my old files back, so please be patient. In my absence however, I have gotten quite a bit of work done. I've gotten 6 chapters done on a future story, a couple done in CID, and I'm still attempting to recover and reorganize Attack on Duel Monsters... While I reorganize, I have a few things I'll be adding. Um, I'll be updating a couple chapters for my YGO In Character story. I've made a few changes to some of the things that I requested, so I'll be doing that. Um, I've got quite a bit more to update on, but I'll get around to that eventually, I'm sure you're all wanting that new chapter I promised forever ago. I'm just glad to be back on a keyboard and not on a tablet XD It was so hard to type on that thing.
I do not own YGO or anything pertaining to YGO, I do however own my Ocs, and this is a fan made fic made for entertainment purposes only. Enjoy~!
CID
Chapter 55
Rekindling
Yami stretched as he walked out of his room. He'd woken up in the middle of the night and went to sleep in his bed. He'd missed cuddling with Yugi a lot more than he thought he did. He'd slept so well, in fact, that he'd slept in.
Work wasn't expecting him back until tomorrow anyway.
"Good... Afternoon" he chuckled, looking at the time.
"Good afternoon, daddy" Akari greeted with a smile.
"Afternoon, dad" Yuki waved, playing tug-o-war with Arata.
"You slept in pretty late today, don't ya think?"
"Maybe a bit" he purred, wrapping his arms around his husband. "I couldn't help but notice your absence when I woke up."
The twins chuckled, already used to their father's shenanigans. "That's because unlike you, I enjoy getting up to cook for my family" Yugi countered with a smirk.
Yami opened and closed his mouth, gaping like a fish as he searched for a response. The twins burst into laughter that caused tears. Neither could speak through the laughter their father had caused. Yami's frown slowly turned to a sheepish grin as he tried to hide his own laughter.
"Certainly stuck your foot in your mouth there, huh?" Yugi chuckled.
"I dunno what you're talking about."
Yugi poked his nose before returning to the kitchen. "You two behaving?" Yami asked the twins, looking at them with a skeptical look.
"What are we-"
"Five?" Yuki finished his sister's sentence.
"Fair enough" he chuckled, leaving them to their activities. He walked in the kitchen, finding a smile while watching his husband make lunch.
Yugi handed him a cup as he walked by. Yami glanced at the cup before looking back at the shorter one. "It's tea. I figured you were thirsty" Yugi shrugged.
"How long would you say it takes to know someone as well as you know me?" He asked, taking a sip of the offered beverage.
"Well, it depends.."
"On?" The older drawled, waiting patiently for a response.
"How well you can read people, and how easy they are to read."
"So... I'm easy to read?"
"Absolutely not" Yugi chuckled, wiping a mess from the counter top. "We've been together nineteen years, and you still manage to surprise me. I still somehow manage to learn something new about you every day."
"Really?"
"Mhm."
"So" Yami growled lowly, his eyes full of play as he cornered his husband against the counter. "How much do you know about me?"
"I know enough" the shorter sassed back, poking him on the nose.
Yami rubbed his nose against Yugi's, chuckling lightly. "You're awfully sassy today, my love."
"Watch out, I may bite" Yugi teased with a wink.
A chuckled bubbled out as he pressed their lips together. Yami's hands left the counter to loosely wrap around his husband, his eyelids lowering as a smile crossed his face.
"You've been looking at me like that a lot here lately."
"It doesn't feel like it's been nineteen years. I feel like we just got married a few months ago."
"Do you still love me as much as you did before?"
"Absolutely not."
Yugi's eyes widened at the fact that his husband had just answered with even a second's pause.
"I love you so much more" he continued, pressing their foreheads together to get a closer look at the violet eyes he'd come to love, which were slowly becoming watery.
"You're an idiot" Yugi chuckled, his voice breaking.
"You love me."
"I do."
Yami pressed their lips together roughly, taking his husband by surprise. Yugi closed his eyes, wrapping his arms around the taller's neck and pulling him in, holding him in the embrace. Yami pressed his leg between his husbands, attempting to get even closer to the shorter, not that he could.
The sound of someone clearing their throat pulled the two apart. They looked over to find their son standing in the doorway like he'd just busted a child with it's hand in the cookie jar. "As much as I love you guys, I'd really rather not see my fathers' make-out go any further."
Yami chuckled while Yugi covered his now red face, shaking with laughter. "I keep forgetting you two are home now" the older chuckled.
"Try not to again, okay? The last thing I want to see is my dads in the middle of 'it'."
That was the breaking point. Yugi's hands fell from his face to hold his sides as he burst into laughter. The laughter proved infectious as Yami, too broke into laughter. Yuki and Akari joined in as well, unable to keep a straight face with both their parents laughing.
The family was happy, and it certainly showed by the house filled with laughter. And where there was laughter, there was also love.
Nickey: Okay, so while that seemed like just a filler chapter, I can assure you, it's a lot more than that. There's a few tiny things to take away from it, and it was also kind of a reminder chapter for myself. The plot will carry forth in the next few chapters, because I'm ready for CID to be over with, but I'm not ready to rush it, mostly because my next couple stories aren't ready yet. So, all that being said, I hope you all enjoyed, I'm sorry it wasn't as long as I would've liked it to be, but it took me forever to get around to writing it. Um, updates! Firstly, the next story won't be posted until after these stories are done, or one of them is done. Either way, it will be a bit. HOWEVER! I can't really post anything until I get some help for one of my stories. For more info on that, check out chapter 8 of YGO In Character (another story of mine) and check out chapter 7 too, to vote on the next story that goes up. There's 3 choices, and your guys and gals input will really help me with both chapters. I'll be updating chapter 8, because I've changed quite a bit on it, it'll make sense when you check it out. But hey, lend me a hand, and I'll give credit where credit is due. Thank you all so much, and I'll catch ya'll next time!
Until next time ladies and gents * waves * Goodbye!
