Hi! Guess what! Another chappie. I'm running out of idea's for this fic, so if you have any, let me know in your reviews. I think this fic is slowly going downhill. Well anyways, sorry for the delay. Here it is.............

NO OWN YU-GI-OH!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/....../ Yami
//....// Yugi
..... private thoughts.
Yugi Motou layed awake in his sleeping bag as everyone else around him slept peacefully. Many questions began to flow through his head as he stared up at the white drip paint ceiling of his friend Joey Wheeler's home.
How can this be happening? It seems every time something good happens in my life, some one wants to take it away.
//Does no one want me to be happy?!?//
Hearing a stiffled yawn, Yugi looked to his side to see Yami blinking trying to rid his eyes of its sleep.
"Mmmmmm....Yugi? Dids ya say something?"
Realizing he had just yelled out in the mental link that he and Yami shared, Yugi quickly shook his head.
"No, not really. Sorry if I woke you."
"No, no you didn't. Well this is a switch aibou. Normally I'm the early bird, not the other way around."
Yami replied good naturally as he sat up.
"Truth is I really haven't slept much last night. In fact not at all."
Sighing trying to stiffle a yawn, Yugi looked bleakly at his partner.
"Haven't slept? Yugi! You should of told me!"
"I know, it's just that......"
"Just nothing Yugi. Nothing will be solved if you beat yourself up like this and make yourself sick."
"I know, I just can't help worrying. And now that I'm gonna be leaving with Kaiba in a few hours,"
Noticing the look Yami gave when he spoke of Kaiba's name sent a small chill down his spin. Mentally appologizing, he continued.
"I can't help wondering if this is the right choice. What if who ever this is tries to come after Kaiba or Mokuba just to get to me? I don't want any of my friend's lives to be jepordized because of me."
"I'm not sure if it's the right choice either, but for now it's the only one that we have."
The frustration growing in his voice, Yami stood up and began to pace the room careful not to step on any of the other sleepers.
"I'm not sure of anything right now. For the first time that I can remember, I feel helpless. I usually always handle any dangerous situation that you are in by myself. I always have the answers. But this time, I have no answers and have to seek help."
"There's nothing wrong in seeking help, especially if it's from your friends."
"It is for me. I know you may not understand Yugi, but that's just the way I am. I'm the one who's suppose to be protecting you. Not anyone else. Especially not Kaiba!"
Taking Yami's hand into his, Yugi stared up into his dark crimson eyes, smiling sweetly.
"It's okay to ask for help once in awhile. That doesn't mean your weak. It just proves how strong you are and how much you care."
Sighing, Yami gratefully returned the smile.
/You always know just what to say./
Leaning in, Yami pressed his lips against Yugi's locking them into a kiss. The two stayed in this position for quite some time until Kaiba awoke.
"AHHH! Would you two get a room?!? Some of us would like to be able to hold down our breakfast in the morning and not to have disturbing images running through our heads through-out the day!"
Growling, Yami released Yugi, glarring at Kaiba. Kaiba more then happily returned the glare.
Noticing the tension that was growing between the two, Yugi quickly stepped in.
"Speaking of breakfast, what would you like Yami?"
Darting his eyes away from Kaiba, Yami looked over at Yugi.
"French toast does sound appealing for this morning."
"That sound's good, and how about you Kaiba?"
"Eggs, sausage and toast."
Smiling, Yugi stood up and grabed Yami's and Kaiba's arms, dragging them with him to the kitchen.
"Well then, let's go get us some grub before Joey wakes up!"
He replied heartily. Just as he had expected, Yami and Kaiba chuckled at his last spoken words. The three knew perfectly well that if they didn't eat now, chances would be that they wouldn't be eating once Joey got up. That guy seemed to have an endless stomach.
After a hearty breakfast of french toast, scrambled eggs, sausage, toast and orange juice, the three associates lingered around in the kitchen until the rest of their friend's awoke.

Yami held onto Yugi's duffle bag as the black limozine that belonged to Seto Kaiba pulled around to the front of the house.
//Yami! Stop worrying! It's just Kaiba.//
/That's WHY I'm worried./
Chuckling, Yugi wrapped his arms around Yami hugging him tightly.
//Promise me you won't do anything drastic.//
/I promise and promise to keep the link open at ALL times, understand?/
//Yes Yami. Just hurry up so I can come home.//
/I will aibou. Try not to worry./
//I'll try if you will.//
/Deal!/
Opening the door for him, Yami helped Yugi into the limo, setting his bag next to him. Leaning into the vehicle, Yami gave Yugi a quick good-bye peck on the cheeck before closing the door. Stepping back he watched as the limo slowly drove off.
Joey, who along with everyone else who had been there to watch Yugi left, came up to Yami and wrapped his arms around his friend.
"Donts ya worry Yami! Yuge'll be alright. And once we find dis bastard, he'll be safe."
Looking over at him, Yami nodded then turned and walked back into the house.
"Let's get started!"
Joey and Tristen followed Yami as everyone else departed, heading home or to other designations other than Joey's house.

JOEY'S LIVINGROOM:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting back on the couch, Tristen watched as Yami and Joey went over idea after idea of as to whom they believed was responsible for what was happening. Not being able to help himself, he smirked as the two squabbled on frustrated.
Morons! Don't they realize who they are looking for is right here in front of them? Of course I'll never tell. They're only doing this cause they believe they have hope cause Yugi is still alive. Well not for long! Not with what I have planned for him! To be killed by someone you trust, by a friend and not an enemy, my that must be ironic!
"Yo! Trist! What da hell is dat smirk for? You got an idea?"
Startled, Tristen jumped then starred at his blonde friend.
"Huh? You say something Joey?"
Frowning, he and Yami leaned closer to their friend.
"Yeah, Yami and I was wondering why you were smiling."
KISMA! Busted!
"Uh...Oh, I was just thinking of what we could do to the guy once we find him. I sure would love to break every bone in his body."
"Well sorry Tristen but no unnecessary violence. I already promised Yugi that we wouldn't."
"Yeah, ok. I can still dream huh?"
"We all can!"
Yami replied chuckling, then quickly growing serious.
"Okay, here's what we know so far. All of this started happening the day after Yugi and I told you guys that he and I had decided to date. I believe someone from the pizza parlor may know something."
"So you want to go question everyone? Get real Yami. Do you realize how long that will take? How bout we just go talk to the owner instead. He practically witnessed the good news."
"Ya, and don't forget dat creepy waiter."
Nodding, Yami agreed with his two friends.
"Alright, but it won't take all of us. Joey why don't you go and question the owner."
"Right, and what are you twos gonna do?"
"I'm going to head to the park where the attempt asasssination occured and try to find any clues."
"And I'll head to the local sleeze bars. Chances are a scum like this will hang out in these kind of places."
"Good idea Tristen. Just be careful."
"Yah bud, watch your back."
"Oh, I will. You guys just watch yours!"
"It's settled then. We'll split up and then meet back here..."
"Ah, we can't do dat, Serenity is having some sort of Girl Get Together and if I show up with any guys....well, you twos know what my little sister's temper is like."
Yami and Tristen both knew perfectly well and nodded quickly.
"Okay, if not there, then...."
"How bout my place? My folks are gone for the week so we'll have the house to ourselves. It can be the center of our operation."
"Alright, we'll all meet back at Tristen's in two hours. Good luck!"
With that said, Yami quickly walked out of the house and towards the park. Joey headed to the pizza parlor and Tristen got onto his motorcycle and headed downtown to one of the local clubs.
