*everyone walks in droopy eyed and tired*

Celestia:  Welcome to the next chapter of My Yami and I!

Yami Celestia:  Yes!  Welcome one and all!

Yami:  *to Duet*  You were right.  That was one long night!

Duet:  *replies* The endless drooling.  The cries of "Yami!  Where are you?  I can't sleep without you!"  The pounding of Celestia's Yami on the cellar door.  "Yami!  Come let me out of here!  Yami!"

Yami:  Celestia was constantly walking into my room saying, "Yami, I keep having nightmares.  Can I sleep with you?"  Or, "Yami, I can't sleep!  My bed's too uncomfortable!  I bet yours is a lot more comfortable.  Can I sleep in here?  With you, of course!"  *thinks about all the excuses Celestia used*

Duet:  *to all* I didn't get any sleep!

Celestia:  Wow, what a surprise.  I didn't get much either.  *glares menacingly at her Yami*

Yami Celestia:  What?  I didn't do anything!

Celestia:  You call pounding on the cellar door all night not doing anything?!

Yami Celestia:  Well….yeah.  Hey, I couldn't sleep because of your endless whining!

Celestia:  But I had a reason to!

Duet:  Like getting on people's nerves?

Celestia:  Ok, ok, I didn't have a reason to.  I'm sorry.

Yami:  Yami Celestia, will you apologize?

Yami Celestia:  *reluctantly* I'm sorry.

Celestia:  Can we have breakfast?  I'm hungry!

Yami Celestia:  Me too!

*Duet and Yami exchange glances*

Celestia:  I know, I know, you hate cooking for me, Duet.  I'll make breakfast!

Yami Celestia:  Can I help?

Celestia:  Sure!  *whispers to Yami Celestia*  We could make special heart-shaped pancakes for Yami!

Yami Celestia:  Oooooooooh, yeah!  *Celestia and Yami Celestia grin evilly*

While breakfast is being made……………..

Duet:  You did the right thing by refusing to let them sleep with you.  They'd probably want to do something other than sleep!

Yami:  *is genuinely scared*  Now, I'm very glad I refused!

Duet:  Don't worry.  I'll protect you from those maniacs.

Celestia:  *calls from kitchen*  Hey!  I thought my Yami and I were the only ones in love with Yami!  You don't say you'll protect someone of the opposite sex if you don't love them!

Duet:  -.-  On second thought, you'll have to fend for yourself.  Sorry!

Yami:  It's ok, I guess.

Yami Celestia:  *calls from kitchen*  Oh Yami!  You're going to looooove this breakfast!

Yami:  *is scared*

Duet:  Actually, they do a decent job cooking.  They cook for me once in a while.  They won't poison your food.  Promise.  If they did that, then they'd be harming you, and they don't want their Yami to be hurt!

Yami:  If you say so……

Celestia and Yami Celestia:  *from kitchen*  Breakfast is served!

Duet and Yami:  Coming!

*Celestia and Yami Celestia are sitting at the table eating scrambled eggs*

Celestia:  Everything's already on the table.  Oh, Yami, what would you like to drink?

Yami:  Um….

Yami Celestia:  We have milk, orange juice, Coke products, and an unfinished jug of eggnog.

Yami:  I'll have some milk.

Celestia:  Coming right up!

Duet:  *has been staring at Yami's pancakes*  Uh, Yami?

Yami:  Hm?  *suddenly notices heart-shaped pancakes on his plate*  O.O

Yami Celestia:  *sees Yami looking at his pancakes*  You like them, Yami?

Yami:  Uh, yeah, that's, uh, that's real sweet of you.  Thanks.

Celestia:  *sets glass of milk on table*  Welcome!  *sits back down*  *to Yami Celestia*  Did you hear that?  He thought it was sweet of us to make him heart-shaped pancakes!

Yami Celestia:  Yeah!  I know!  *Celestia and Yami Celestia start giggling*

Duet: Now what is so funny?

Celestia:  Nothing.

Yami Celestia:  Nothing important.

*everyone is silent for a while because they are eating*

Yami Celestia:  *finishes up*  Yami?

Yami:  *finishes*  Yes, Yami Celestia?

Yami Celestia:  Did you like your pancakes?

Yami:  Actually, they weren't too bad!

Duet:  ^__^  I told you so!  Girls, you did a good job.  Now clean up.

Celestia:  Ok!  *begins picking up plates, glasses, and silverware*  Hey Yami Celestia!  Will you wash these for me?  I'll rinse and dry.

Yami Celestia:  Sure thing!

While the dishes are being washed…..

Duet:  Now that wasn't so bad, was it?

Yami:  No, it wasn't.

Duet:  You know, Celestia and her other half are actually fairly nice once you get to know them.  They're just a bit loony.

Yami:  Just a bit?

Duet:  You know what I mean.

Yami:  Yeah.

Celestia:  *walks in*  I hereby proclaim the dishes done!

Yami Celestia:  *follows Celestia*  Now, what shall we do today?

Celestia: Glomp Yami!  *and they do*

Yami:  Oh goody.  This is going to be fun.  REAL fun.
