Misunderstood

Saffire: We're back!

Kyoshi: Yup ^____^

Yugi: No torture?

Kyoshi: This is a happy chapter! ^____^ Saffie-chan wrote it.

Saffire: ::blush:: I hope I did it ok. Though you did write that one part involving Yukito-baka. I don't have it in me to do that.

Kyoshi: You're so cute! ::glomp::

Seto: Why is she acting so odd?

Saffire: ::holding on to Kyoshi:: Umm…. She's been having bad mood swings lately. At least she isn't pissed off or depressed at the moment.

Yugi: Naze?

Saffire: ::cough:: I'm not allowed to tell. ::pats Kyoshi on the head:: calm down, kay?

Kyoshi: Can I go have some root beer?

Yami: NO!

Saffire: We don't have any. Gomen nasai Kyo-ko.

Kyoshi: ::pouts:: I guess I'll thank the reviewers now.

Wolfspeaker, I'm glad you liked that dance scene. I didn't know if it was gonna be good enough. ^________^ This chappie has fluff near t end that I hope you'll like muchly!

Stupid kid 04 and blah, He he. ^____^ I hope you like this chapter there is fluff and craziness involved!!

Youko Demon, I hope this chapter lives up to your expectations. I think the next (and sadly) last chapter will be the best chapter from this story. ^^

Tball777, YYxY fics rock!!!! Yeah!! And so does everything fluffy and sappy!! ^______^ I am a hopeless romantic ^^;;

BluLightning, ::gets on knees:: I'm so sorry that that part was creepy! I just saw some other random fic use make up so I'm like 'why don't I do it too'. Maybe I'll think next time I wanna do something crazy like that. ::bangs head against desk:: I'm sorry!

Kyra Windwood, I'm sure you'll LOVE the one part of this chapter that deals with Yukito. I'm not saying much about it cause I want you to find out for yourself. Enjoy this chapter!

DemonWingedYamiYugi, What he's afraid of? Ummm… I'm not sure ^^;; I sorta forget what even I type and it's my story! I know what's gonna happen and what's wrong with him (me, two of my friends, and the knowledgeable ppl out there should probably know)… soo… ummm… yah! ^^;; Thanks for reviewing!

Setsuna-kitogem, I learn Japanese at my high school, it's a course offered there and I'm really lucky to have it. I'm in my third year, and I'm taking it next year too. Fresca is a citrus drink with no calories and when Saffire get a hold of it she gets hyper and acts really wild. Just like Kyoshi and Root Beer. ^^;;; Gackt is my GOD!!!!!!! I've loved him for about 2 years and since I'm poor I only have MARS. Though the site I got it from I paid about $21 for it, and even that is pricey. Though someone I know gave me a site where it costs as much as domestic music!!! E-mail me and I'll give you the link. You shouldn't have paid that much for his CD. I totally recommend it and you'll love his song Vanilla. ^^ I'll also give you the site with the lyrics and translations. My e-mail is Whitefang8604@aol.com, my IM is the same. Talk to me sometime, I like to talk online ^___^. I'd like to get to know you better, you seem really nice. Thanks for reviewing my story ^_^

KaTyA, You'll find out what's wrong with Yugi in the next chapter. It's a big thing for this story and I hope I do it ok. Thanks for think that the chapter was cute. I hope you like this one ^______^

Kopy_kat14, Gackt is my GOD!!!!!!!!!! He is my favorite J-Rocker of all time!!!! Janne Da Arc? I love their music!!!!! I don't have that much of it though sadly. ::pouts:: being poor sucks so I can only survive on downloads and Yukichi is really bad with downloading. Isn't the singer Yasu? The one with Long-ish hair? And tight pants? I haven't seen that many pics of them so I think that's him. He usually stands in the middle and that's where vocalists stand. What other J-Rock bands do you like? Do you like Pierrot? Kirito is my ::counts:: 9th god I believe!! He has such a good voice! ::swoon::

Yugi: The both of you are obsessed with J-Rock. ::sigh:: crazy girls.

Kyoshi: Yup! ^______^

Yami: Disclaimer?

Saffire: We couldn't get anyone to do it this time so Kyoshi's gonna do it in Japanese.

Kyoshi: Yuugiou ga arimasen yo. ;_; uttaemasen. Okane ga arimasen kara. ;__; ::pulls out 'Shiny Pink Wallet of Doom ™' and shows that there is no money in it::

Saffire: ::pats Kyoshi on the back:: Good job Kyo-ko.

Kyoshi: Hajimaru desu ka?

Saffire: Hai.

Kyoshi: Koko ni Misunderstood desu. Tanoshimashou!

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

Yugi wearily opened his eyes as he heard the annoying chirping of some birds from outside his window.

'What happened?' He sat up and looked around. He was in his bed in the same clothes from last night. That came as a relief to him.

'Last night… we went to a club and… and Yami danced with me… could he even… like me?'

He shook that thought from his mind, even though it gave him a bit of a warm feeling in his stomach.

Yugi glanced at the clock. It was a half hour before his alarm would go off, so he thought he'd just get up now. Yugi turned off his alarm since he wouldn't need it later. The Hikari walked over to his dresser and saw that his necklace was laid on it's smooth top.

'The last thing I remember was leaning against Yami and dancing to Fragrance. It's black beyond that. Did I… fall asleep? Did Yami carry me home?'

He thought about that for a minute.

'Yami must have taken my ankh off before he put me to bed.'

Yugi stretched his stiff body to try and relax his muscles. When he was done he walked over to his closet.

'What shall I wear today?'

About 20 minutes later he was dressed in a nice black shirt and another pair of regular jeans. He made sure to wash the rest of the glitter from his face so no one would ask him about that. Yami was awake and met up with his light in the hall.

"You're up already?" His hair was badly messed up from sleep and Yugi couldn't help but giggle at that.

"Yes. I think you should get ready yourself now."

They left the house on time and again rode the bus to school. Today would probably be a boring day since it was Monday. They were always like that.

'Will Yukito-baka give me a hard time today? I hope he leaves me alone. I don't want to deal with his crap.' Yugi thought when he walked to his Japanese class.

He sat down in his seat and waited patiently for class to begin. Right before the bell rang a short woman walked into the room. She had a stern look on her face as she set down her purse behind the teacher's desk. The woman then turned towards the black board and wrote her name in a messy scrawl. When she was done she turned back towards the class.

"I am Mrs. Hobbs and I will be your substitute for the day. I expect all of you to behave."

Some of the students became intimidated. Who wouldn't? This woman looked like a psycho!

The sub put the Japanese exchange student on the spot and had him go over everything. Poor Hayato. She was being mean to him too. The boy was having a hard time speaking their language and she was forcing him to say everything correct and he was having a hard time.

'I bet she'll do the same to me later.' Thought Yugi with a less than happy expression on his face.

At the end of class she assigned them a load of stuff to do for homework. This sub was the strictest Yugi'd ever had!

They were finally let out of the room, all with a pile of homework to do that night. Yugi trudged along to his English class starring at the floor as he walked, only glancing up at times to make sure he didn't run into anyone. He entered the room and sat down in his seat and laid his head on his arms upon the desktop.

Yami entered the room and saw Yugi resting.

//Aibou? Are you all right?//

/Last period was hell. And I'm gonna have to deal with the sub again in 8th period./

Yami sat down in his seat and turned to his Hikari. He gave a little sigh, he didn't want his light to feel bad. He put a hand on Yugi's back and rubbed small circles to sooth the boy.

/Arigatou Yami-san./

He pulled his arm back before the teacher entered the room. He didn't want her to get the wrong idea.

'Although…' Yami thought to himself. 'I wouldn't mind being with Yugi in that way. And maybe he actually feels the same, since he danced with me last night. There was a strange look in his eyes as he starred into mine. I'll have to talk with him later…'

"Now today we are going to be watching a black and white movie on 'The Tell Tale Heart.' You do not have to take notes, but the time will not be used to catch up on your lost sleep. I want you all to pay attention."

Yugi lifted his head up with a sigh and watched the movie.

The class ended not too long after the movie finished and the students left the room to go to their other classes.

Yugi half paid attention to Geometry class, it was so easy and he never missed any work. Seto was even more bored than he was, but that's just the given. That class ended quickly enough.

"Hey Yugi!" Ryou was waiting for him at the door after the bell rang.

"Hello Ryou… Bakura? Don't you have class now?"

"I'm not going. It's pointless and I'd prefer to be with Ryou than in that boring class."

"Are you going to lunch with us?"

He shrugged and answered. "I guess I will."

"I need to go to my locker first, do you want to go with me?"

"Sure." Ryou said.

Bakura grabbed Ryou's hand as his light blushed. They followed the shorter boy.

When they almost reached Yugi's locker they passed a familiar person.

"Lookit the pretty faggots!" Called out Yukito as he walked by. Bakura growled at the longhaired boy but his lover held him back by holding him around his waist. The cocky boy just continued to laugh and walk away from the trio. The boy suddenly fell flat on his ugly face and shut up.

A feminine voice spoke up. "You should really watch where you're going." It was Aiji.

The trio walked a bit closer to the girl and looked at her. She was grinning. Then there was a pained groan from the boy still laying flat on his face. The four of them looked down and saw Nabiki's book bag lying on the baka's back.

"You should probably get that off your back soon… it weighs around 50 pounds." Nabiki said.

Yukito just lay there and groaned.

"Nabiki, what do you have in there? Bricks?" Asked Yugi.

"Next best thing. Textbooks."

"Get… it… off… of… me."

"Well you shouldn't have been laying on the ground in the first place!" Nabiki answered.

Yukito turned his body and the book bag fell to the floor. With a groan he stood up.

"I'm going to make you pay for any medical bills that I may need because of you two."

He turned towards the two girls.

"But… I might just forget that any of this happened if one of you lovely ladies agree to a date." He licked his lips sadistically.

"Not in your life, scum bag!" Yelled Nabiki.

He took a step towards them.

"Hey! Leave them alone!" Ryou cried out.

Yugi turned towards the three boys.

"Who was talking to you, pretty faggot boy?"

Bakura growled and stepped in front of Ryou.

"Do NOT insult my lover if you value your pathetic life."

"What can YOU do? Beat me over the head with that stupid gold necklace your sex toy wears?" He laughed.

Bakura growled and the 'Eye of Horus' appeared on his forehead.

"I think a little trip to the Shadow Realm will teach you a lesson."

He thrust his hand forward, palm facing the longhaired senior. A burst of invisible energy was sent forth and Yukito didn't even have enough time to scream before he disappeared.

Bakura grinned evilly. At least no one would have to deal with that sarcastic bastard again.

"No one. And I mean NO ONE insults my lover and gets away with it."

No one said anything else.

The rest of the day was fine for Yugi. Except for the hell he had to go through with the sub in 8th period. On the ride home Yugi happily listened to MARS and quietly sang along to the songs with a smile. Yami was happy too.

'He's in such a good mood. I hope he stays like this for a long while. But, I think I should talk to him about yesterday. Maybe there is a chance for 'us.' I'll have to find out.'

After they finished both of their homework Yami made some dinner. Yugi got to choose what to make because Yami wanted to cook something that would make his light happy.

With a grin Yugi said what he wanted. "Can you make Pirogues and French fries?"

Yami smiled back. "Of course Aibou." Then he went to the kitchen to make their dinner.

When he was finished he sat two plates on the table and called out to Yugi. "Time to eat!"

Yugi walked into the dining room with a smile. "Thank you Yami."

The two boys enjoyed their meal and occasionally said something to the other.

"So how was your day Aibou?"

"Well, it was ok. Except for that maniacal sub we had for Japanese. She was evile! Other than that it was fine." He didn't really want to mention the incident with Yukito. Yami didn't need to know.

When they were done they put their dishes in the sink. They'd worry about them later.

"Yami, do you want to finish that movie from yesterday?"

"Sure. You go get it ready."

"Ok!" The hyper boy ran into the living room to go turn on the TV and VCR.

When the movie was over Yugi was almost in tears. The ending was so bittersweet! He sniffed and wiped away a bit of moisture from his eye.

"I like that movie, but I wish the ending was different. She should have stayed with him! Not fly away to where she came from. She just promised to stay with him forever and then she flies away!" Yugi commented.

"But she did love him, even if she did leave."

"I know. But still! She shouldn't have left. He's gonna be alone and so will she."

Movies like these always got Yugi emotional.

Yami turned to Yugi.

"Aibou… I want to ask you something."

Yugi looked up at him.

"What is it Yami?"

"Well… I was wondering. Last night. Did you… enjoy dancing with me?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I just… want to know Yugi. Will you tell me?"

"I…" He blushed. "I did enjoy it. It felt… ethereal… dancing with you. I've ever felt like that before."

"Will you answer another question for me?"

"Sure. What do you want to ask?"

Yami looked down at his lap for a moment before he returned his gaze to that of his Aibou's face.

"Well, I was wondering this too. What is the extent of your feelings for me? Am I just your yami? Or… do you feel more for me?"

Yugi blushed and looked down.

"You've always been there for me. Always protecting and helping me in any way you could. I like you a lot. But… I don't want to be a burden for you."

"Yugi… you are not a burden."

"But I am! I'm not strong… I can't carry as much stuff as everyone else… I'm too emotional."

"Aibou. Stop looking at your bad points. If you look at all of your good qualities you will see in yourself what I view now. You are a wonderful person."

Yami nudged Yugi's face upwards with his hand and smiled.

"Everything about you is wonderful. Don't ever think of yourself as less."

For a minute Yami just starred into Yugi's violet eyes while still holding his chin gently.

"Will you accept me?"

"What do you mean Yami?"

The spirit lowered his head just a little bit.

"Will you accept me into your heart?"

"You've always been in my heart, and you always will be."

Yami lowered his head the rest of the way and gently touched his lips to his Aibou's. He pulled his head back a little, their faces only a breath away.

"Mou hitori no ore. Will you be mine?" Yami's warm breath washed over Yugi's lips in a pleasant way.

Yugi answered Yami's question by closing the small space between them and pressing his lips against the spirit's in a gentle kiss. After a moment of just feeling the pressure, Yami's tongue peaked out of his mouth and pressed against Yugi's lips to ask for entrance. The light's mouth opened and accepted the invading pink muscle. The two boys just sat there on the couch and tasted each other until the need for air became known.

Panting, Yugi breathed out. "Wow. That was good."

"I'll have to agree. Wow."

They continued to stare at each other with happy expressions fixed on their faces.

Yugi voiced a question. "Does… does this mean that we are officially 'together'?"

"I would think so, if that is what you want."

Yugi nodded his head with a smile.

"I guess we are 'together' then."

Yami glanced back at the TV for a moment.

"Aibou. Would you like to watch another movie now?"

"Sure!" He got off the couch and kneeled in front of the system. Yugi picked up a movie.

"How about this one? It's a cute movie!"

Yami nodded and told him it was fine.

Happily he popped in the movie and pressed 'play'. He stood up and walked over to the couch then sat back down in his place next to Yami, though now he was a bit closer. That wasn't good enough for Yami and he pulled his light next to his body. Yugi looked up with a half surprised expression on his face but Yami just smiled and gave him a quick kiss. The shorter boy snuggled up next to his Yami.

Yugi smiled as he thought to himself. 'I can't believe he liked me back. And now… we're "together". He's my… boyfriend now.' He grinned and contentedly watched the movie.

When the movie reached a bit past half way Yugi became a little drowsy and he yawned.

//Would you like to go to bed now?//

/No, that's ok. I'll be fine./

//If you say so.//

Though against his defense that he was fine, Yugi fell asleep not much later. He was still comfortably wrapped in his newfound lover's arms as he drifted off to the peaceful land of dreams.

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

Saffire: I liked it muchly! ^_^

Kyoshi: Though you blushed when you wrote that kiss scene. ^^

Saffire: So?!

Kyoshi: Kawaii *___*

Yugi: She's still going crazy?

Saffire: Fraid so. Though we did frighten these few boys earlier ^^ Bakura took over our body. It was amusing to see their faces when we laughed maniacal. This one kid calls us the 'evil lady' though it's in reference to Kyoshi.

Kyoshi: That's because everyone's decks are better than mine so I try to intimidate them, and I keep hearing that I'm only allowed to have 1 dark hole and not 3. I haven't seen it anywhere. If you know the restrictions on some cards, will you tell me if I'm allowed to have my 3 dark holes? And would you tell me where I can find where it says that.

Ryou: It's the only thing going for your deck isn't it?

Kyoshi: sadly yes. I can't afford any good cards. ::pouts::

Yugi: Next chapter is my torture isn't it?

Kyoshi: Hai! And I'm gonna be the one writing it! Though Saffie-chan has a bit of a part in it too. But I'm not saying anything else ^_____^ I want Root Beer!!

Everyone: NO!!

Kyoshi: Fine! I'm stealing Saffie-chan's fresca then!

Saffire: You can have some, but not all.

Kyoshi: Arigatou Saffie-chan!! ::mega glomp::

Saffire: I can't wait until you're out of your little infatuation.

Kyoshi: It's your infatuation too! ^^ Just remember that! I'm just affected more ^____^

Saffire: Why do you have to be right?

Yami: Who do you like?

Kyoshi: Not tellin'! I already have to deal with Nabiki-chan trying to get it out of me. Not you too!

Malik: And I thought you were supposed to be the seme half of your body.

Kyoshi: I am!

Saffire: I guess we should say this now. We're probably gonna hold a contest for the last chapter. Who ever wins gets a one shot written for them and it will star one of my fav couples. I know that sounds unfair, but I have many fav couples! And I wouldn't want to write a fic that I didn't like. So, at the end of the next chapter I'll post 3 questions and whoever gets them right will win. You either have to put your email in your review or email me directly. And all will be well in the world.

Kyoshi: We should probably go now, so, see you next time! Ja ne!
