Disclaimer: not really sure who actually owns this but I sure as hell know I don't!

Notes: Basketball tryouts started today and I am feeling a tad bit better. My whole body aches, I haven't done strenuous activity for about three days. I have been in bed the whole time! Anyway here is the next chapter:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yami soon realized that Yugi had cried himself to sleep. He had been holding him for a full hour straight. During that time Serenity had come in to tell him that she was going shopping so they could have diner.

Yami placed his small body back on the bed and pulled the blanket up. He looked to the puzzle that lay around his neck; he could feel himself loosing the connection to his soul room. He was hardly ever in there anyway; he didn't really care for the link loss to it.

All of a sudden there was an annoying ring that made Yami shake in surprise. It was the phone; Yami had seen Yugi answer it a few times. Yami got up in search of the phone. When he found it he answered it, "Hello?"

"Hi, my name is Arthur, I was wondering, I was told by someone that Yugi Motou was residing here because his house was burnt down," the man said.

"He is sleep right now; he has had a very hard day. I am his older brother, can I take a message," Yami said, he wanted to be off this contraption; he wanted to be back with Yugi.

"Well, I am very sorry for your loss young man. I use to be a very good friend of Solomon, I was wondering if there was going to be a service in his memory," Arthur said.

"I think Yugi might like that, he is very emotion right now. I will see when he wakes up, and then I will contact you," Yami said, he was just about to hang up when he heard Arthur speak up again.

"My number is 236-7634," he said, Yami jotted the number and slammed the phone down (The numbers were in Egyptian) , like he knew the proper way to talk on the phone. He went back to Yugi and sat by his side.

"Why my little light, why do bad things happen to you?" he asked to no one.

"I wish I knew, I wish I knew the real reason why Yami," he heard a weak reply.

"Yugi, I didn't mean to wake you, I am sorry," Yami said his head down.

"I woke up to the phone, who was on it?" Yugi asked.

"It was a man named Arthur, he was wondering if you were going to have a service for Solomon. Do they still mummify people?" Yami asked.

Yugi smiled weakly, "No Yami, we haven't done that for a long time. About the service, I am not sure if I can do it. I know it is the only way to have his friends pay his respects but I still don't know if I can handle it," Yugi said, Yami could see the tears well up in his eyes.

"Yugi, I didn't mean to make you cry," Yami said.

"No Yami, it is okay, can you tell him that I will try to arrange it, maybe in two days," Yugi said.

"Yugi, you know that I will be there for you. I will be there every step of the way. If you need me, you know where I will be," Yami said, instead of pointing to the puzzle he passed it and placed a hand on his heart.

"Thank you Yami, I am tired, I am gong back to sleep," Yugi said, as soon as he closed his eyes he was out.

Yami sighed, he went back to the phone, he went to cal the man back when he realized that, he couldn't use this contraption, the numbers weren't in Egyptian. Yami gave up and placed the phone back down. He had no other choice but to wait for Serenity and Joey to come back.

They returned in an hour or so. Joey then took a good half an hour to teach Yami the numbers one through ten.

"So then this means that," Yami said pointing to his writing and Joey writing, Joy nodded, he was getting really bored with this.

"Yes, now can you translate these numbers se we can call the man back to tell him when the funeral will be?" Joey asked.

"Well Joey, Yugi said that it might be in two days, he wasn't even sure if he could even get up and go," Yami said as he translated it.

"I will have Serenity set it up for him; we will take care of it. You might want to go back to Yugi's old home and grab a phone book or something so we can tell all of the man's friends. Also a picture of him, maybe one when he is in a suit or tuxedo," Joey started to stop there, Yami looked rather confused. "Ah forget it, I will go after school tomorrow," he said, Yami smiled, that was the first thing that he understood.

"Sounds good to me," Yami said, and then he got up and left to go back to Yugi. Yami had to wake him only once, for diner.

At diner Yugi didn't eat much, he just moved his stuff around his plate to make it seem like he ate more. Yami noticed this but he knew that you don't have much of an appetite when you loose someone that you love. He led Yugi back to bed.

When Yugi was a sleep Yami's eyes started to droop. Seeing that Yugi most likely wouldn't mind, he crawled in with the younger boy and fell asleep.

The next day was a bit hectic, Serenity was making arrangements for the funeral and Joey was rummaging around calling everyone in the Motou's phone book.

When the day was done Yami, Joey, and Serenity all collapsed on the couch.

"Well at least that's over, the funeral is tomorrow," Serenity. Said.

"And everyone that has ever met that man was coming, including his son," Joey said.

"And the picture we found will look very nice, along with the cloths we bought," Yami said. They were ready to fall asleep right there. Finally Joey went o him room Serenity doing the same. Then Yami fell asleep, right there on the ouch, mouth wide open.
