Author's Notes: Well, managed to complete the fifth chapter! Wai! Once
again, this is a Yami x Yugi and Ryou x Bakura/Yami Bakura pairing story.
And, once again, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or its characters.
Minna/Everyone: *gasp*
Ryou: D-Did she...
Yugi: ...just...
Yami: ...say the...
Bakura: ...disclaimer?!
Author: *blinks* I did, didn't I? *all of YGO cast faints* HEY, BAKAS, GET UP, WE HAVE A STORY TO DO! *blinks suddenly* Hey, that reminds me...in my second chapter (or third, can't remember and am too lazy to go look) I had Bakura call Ryou 'baka'. Did anyone not know what that meant and were afraid to say so? Well, if any were, it means either stupid or idiot, depending on how it's used in the sentence. If anyone has any other words in this fic they do not understand, please e-mail me at cassie_the_dragonlady@yahoo.com okay?
Oh, and, by the way, this will be a happy chapter at first, but then it will get sad. You might even see a change of heart in Bakura.
Yuumei: Oh, does that mean you're going to need me in the story again?
Author: ^^; Maybe.
Yuumei: YAY! *jumps around gleefully*
Author: *to no one in particular* Didn't I just say 'maybe'? As in not yes, but not no either? Now then, on to the review answers! *clicks on the reviews button* HOLY MOSES!!! *shoots back in her chair and falls on the ground, making loud clattering noises*
Yugi: *head appears around the doorway corner* Um, you ok?
Author: *wheeze* fine, perfectly...fine... *cough* *hack*
Yami: *appears above Yugi's head, followed by Ryou and Bakura* How many reviews?
Author: *breathless* I was only gone a month, and...and...
Bakura: *rolls eyes* SPIT IT OUT!
Author: 44!
*sounds of YGO cast falling/tumbling down the stairs*
Author: *cough* Well, anyway, on to the answers...
Me- Ooooo, really? *glares at website I got the list of Japanese words off of* I guess that would make sense, considering "Yumemiru" means "To dream of". Nice info there!! ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU!! *looks at Yuumei* I think we'll keep your name the way it is. It looks cool. ^^
Bakura: *coughcoughlazycoughcough*
Author: *eyebrow is twitching* *flatly* Next...
Wildwolf- Don't worry. You get both of your wishes, AND you're right about my plot change! BWUAHAHAHAH!
Cylestial Warrior- WAI!! Thank you soooooo much!
KawaiiBlackMoon- *blushes a shade of crimson not previously known to humanity* Um...actually, I don't really know what my IQ is. I'm certainly not a genius. I just inherited good writing skills from my mommy!! ^_^ She rules. She's coming out with a novel soon, called Evurmor! *glares around* And don't anyone steal the name. She doesn't know about my liking for the YGO pairings. Oh well. Maybe I'll tell her...someday...
Majin Pluto- Aha, you wanna test that theory? Oh, do I have another Xelloss fan here? :) :) :)
Chisa and Neko- Um, wow. *blinks* Glad you liked it. LOTR RULES!!!! *grumbles* Guess what? There's a petition going around online to change the name The Two Towers just cause of Sept. 11. I think they need to get a grip. Who's with me?!
Bakura: *sweatdrops* I think YOU need to get a grip.
Author: *glares*
Blue diamond- Really? *lol* Thought a few people would like that leather thing! No, you don't sound like a suck-up! I rather like your comments! It shows what you liked and didn't like! Yes, actually, the apron WAS pink and frilly! AHAHAHAH!!
Vampire Huntress D- *giggles* Wow, glad you liked it!
Chisa and Neko- Again? Aha, another lemon supporter. Lessee...that now brings it up to about 3, I think. Am I wrong?
K-chan- Ooooo, not a bad idea. Not a bad idea at all. *grabs a pen and paper and begins writing ideas* *peers up at comp* *to self* Okay, that was stupid. I could have just typed that...
Oceana- Another lemon-wanter. Hmm. That's 4. I just might have to do a lemon. Don't worry, Yami and Yugi get brave in this chappie.
The Sadistic Cow- Moooooooo!!!! *LOL* Sorry, me and my friend, who came to Florida with me, (who, by the way, came up with the idea for the Ryou- breaking-glass-with-his-voice thing) made me so friggin silly we started mooing at strangers. It was really funny because we made it sound like a dying cow. LOL! I wish I could've recorded it. This one little kid screamed and ran away. HA! *ahem* Um, yeah, on to the answers. Glad you like Bakura's new personality. Oh, nice comments to Grr. Very nice.
Raiegki Leviathan- I think I will delete it. ^_^
Blackitten-chan- Aww, really? *sniffles* I'm touched. I'm glad so many peoples like my fic that I just started on a whim. It just started by me getting a wild hair after watching Resident Evil. *laughs* I thought the first chappie was horrible, especially when I couldn't think of a way to continue it. Then, boom, I started getting interested in Ryou + Bakura slash pairings, and I'm like "hmmmm". I whip out Soulmates again and start typing! And now I have 44 reviews! WHOOHOOO!!
Kel-chan- *busts out laughing and rolls on floor for a while* Whooo...*wipes away a tear* That was funny. I so wish Grr would come back and read this. I would love to see his face.
Fichan- As in Filia-chan? I hope so, that means I have another Slayers otaku who likes my stories! Anywhos, glad ya liked it, and I'll be back Sept. 16! *grumbles* Though this chappie technically isn't released on FF.Net till Sept. 17th...
Wildwolf- (AGAIN?!) *winces* Ick...that sucks... Oooo, yay! Another FY fan! WAI!
Blue diamond- Heehee. Glad you like the pairing, and glad you're in suspense! It makes the chappie all that more good when ya read it after waiting FOREVER for it!!
Sarina Fannel- *grinz* Well, thanks a bunch! That really cheers me up and inspires me to hear that people like this so much! ^.^
Bunny- Dun worry, you get your wish(es)!
Lady Geuna- *blushes just like Syaoran from Card Captor Sakura* Wow...glad you like that. I'm sure you'll LOVE my plot change EVEN MORE! ^.^ Tee hee!
Author: And, now, before the story, we must have...a COMMERCIAL BREAK! (P.S.- I got the idea for this by a similar commercial done with the Gundam Wing characters. I was rolling on the floor with laughter when I read that. Just remember that I only came up with a few parts of this)
~*all of the male YGO cast are sitting in Yugi's living room, watching a duel on TV*
Yami: Pegasus, your hair looks and smells like shit.
Bakura: Yeah, you pussy, go wash your damn hair.
Pegasus: *in a gay voice* Okay, you guys, just leave me alone. *he gets up and prances into Yugi's bathroom* *He grabs some shampoo labeled 'Dark Magician Miracle Spell Shampoo' and squirts some on his hair*
*moments later, Pegasus busts out of the bathroom, and begins to sing*
Pegasus: I've got the urge!
Yami, Yugi, and Kaiba: *jump up and dance around, singing in deep voices* He's got the urge!
*they keep on singing and dancing*
Bakura: *eyebrow begins to twitch* Can't take much more...
*the Millennium Ring begins to glow, and everyone is sucked up into it, transformed into their favorite cards*
Bakura: *sighs in relief* That's better...
Ryou: *comes into the room* *blink* Hey, where'd everybody go?
Bakura: Eh... *sweatdrop* Sore wa himitsu desu...
Author: Well, now that that's over, it's time for me to get on with the story! WARNING!! Since some reviewers wanted a lemon, THIS CHAPTER WILL BE NC-17!!!! *Hears some "YAY!"'s and sweatdrops* Well, um, anou...okay...here it is...
Yu-Gi-Oh: Soulmates
Chapter Five: Confessions and Heartbreak
"Hey, Yugi?"
Yugi looked up groggily from his breakfast. At least, that's what the one part of his mind that was awake told him it was. "Hai, Yami-kun?"
"Who were you meaning when you sang that song yesterday?"
Yugi swallowed his mouthful of food. "You, of course. It wasn't obvious?"
Yami blushed a slight pink color. "Just making sure."
Yugi giggled. "Oo, Yami's blushing, Yami's blushing," he teased in a sing-song voice. Yami's blush deepened.
"So, who was your song meant for?" Yugi asked, genuinely curious. Yami stuttered for a moment, his crimson face turning a bright rose color.
'Should I?' he thought breathlessly for a moment. He watched Yugi's confused face for a moment before giving in to temptation. He leaned down, and placed his mouth on his hikari's, reveling in the softness of his aibou's lips. He pulled away after a moment.
"You, little one, my koishii tenshi," Yami answered tenderly with a small smile. Yugi stared at him, wide-eyed. Yugi opened his mouth to reply, but no sound came out. Yami's face fell.
"You don't return my feelings..." he summed up sullenly. Yugi blanched.
"No, of course I do! I just...didn't think you returned my feelings..." Yugi breathed, smiling widely. He leaped into Yami's arms, burying his head into the hollow of Yami's neck. Yami, tears sparking at his eyes, wrapped his arms tightly around his aibou...his koi. (Koibito means love. 'Koishii tenshi' means 'Beloved angel')
"Ashiteru..." Yami whispered, nuzzling the smaller boy's tri-colored hair.
"And I love you, Yami," Yugi murmured. (*CUE* Minna: Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...)
(A few minutes later)
"You're sure?" Yami questioned softly. "You don't have to. Besides, it might hurt..."
Yugi smiled up at him. "I don't care. I trust you, Yami-chan."
Yami swallowed with the responsibility he felt at those words, and seriously considering not going through with this so as not to hurt the smaller boy. But Yugi, surprisingly, was the one to begin. He stood up slightly on tiptoe, and kissed Yami fully. Yami temporarily murdered his brain and succumbed to just doing instead of thinking. Thinking got him nowhere.
Yami wrapped his arms about his aibou, lifted him up, and gently laid him down on the bed. Yami laid down next to him, and resumed their kiss. Yugi opened his mouth to the taller boy, inviting him in. Yami accepted, and his tongue fully explored his hikari's mouth. Yugi hesitated for a moment, and then tentatively touched Yami's tongue with the curiosity of a newborn kitten. Yami's tongue caressed his own, and before they knew it, they were having a small war. Eventually, they had to breathe, and they drew away from each other, breathing heavily. Yami smiled warmly at his lover, and edged closer. His eyes held an odd look foreign to Yugi, dark and mischievous in a way, yet also gentle and comforting. (Whoever the first person to guess correctly what the look was I will dedicate the chapter after next to!)
"Ready to go farther?" Yami inquired huskily.
"There's more?" Yugi breathed, still dazed by the feeling of Yami's lips on his own, his aibou's hot and wet tongue exploring his mouth.
"Oh, much, much more," Yami crooned.
(If ya wanna read the full bout of what happened between them, go to my Yahoo group. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dragon_mistress_cassies_fanfiction/)
Ryou whistled as he walked along through the park, and at the corner of his eyes, realized with horror that he was being followed. He swerved around really quickly, and noticed that there was no one in sight. Ryou bit his lip, wondering if he had just imagined it, turned around, and began to walk swiftly away. He reached a clearing with a bench in it, and to his surprise, a girl he knew from school was sitting there.
"Hey, Naomi-chan!" Ryou called, smiling cheerily. "Mind if I have a seat?"
"Not at all," Naomi replied in an odd way that puzzled Ryou.
"Naomi-chan? Daijobu ka?" Ryou inquired worriedly. Naomi sighed.
"There's this guy I like- a LOT. I've known him for about a year now, and I still like him. He's kinda shy, so I don't know if he likes me back, and he doesn't have very many friends, so I can't ask them."
Before Ryou could figure out why it sounded so familiar, he asked who Naomi liked.
She turned to stare at him for a moment, and then kissed him.
Ryou froze, numb with shock.
(Nearby...)
Bakura felt his throat clench painfully, and he made fists so hard that the fingernails digging into his palms drew blood. He forced the tears not to fall as he saw Ryou be kissed by a girl Bakura knew Ryou had known for a long time now. Ryou wasn't fighting back, so it was obvious that Bakura had no place in Ryou's heart.
With that depressing thought, Bakura turned to make his way slowly back to the house he and his aibou shared.
(Back in the clearing...)
Ryou pulled away from Naomi, his eyes wide. He sighed after a while of silence.
"Naomi-chan, my heart belongs to someone else. It has for a long time now. I am truly sorry."
Ryou watched, helpless, as Naomi's eyes filled with tears, and she fled from the clearing.
"I'm sorry," Ryou whispered, more to himself than anything. "But my heart belongs to Bakura..."
Ryou left the clearing after a while of just sitting there and thinking, and made his way back home. He opened the door, stepped inside, and froze. Goosebumps raised up on his arms and the back of his neck. The house was like an ice cube.
In horror, Ryou remembered that his house was just as cold as it had been when Bakura was still abusive. The house had lost his coldness ever since that day in the park with Yami.
And now that it was back, that could only mean one thing...
Ryou slowly backed up towards the door, and he nudged up against something soft. He paled, and whirled around. He forced a cheery smile onto his face.
"Tadaima, Bakura-kun!"
Bakura gave a wicked sneer, and stretched out the whip he held, glaring down at the owner of the Millennium Ring.
"Okaeri," he snarled, his eyes glinting evilly.
