Chapter 7: With You Forever
Yugi just couldn't wait until seven that day. He walked to school, happy. 'I hope Yami will be there' he thought. 'I wonder what gift he'll have for me' He blushed at the event last night. 'He made out with me. No one will even come near me. I wonder why he loves me so much'
"Hey Yugi wait up!" shouted a cheery voice. Yugi turned around. It was Tea. (a/n Okay, can someone explain to me why Tea/Anzu is always getting bashed? She's really not that bad to me) "Hey Tea! What's new?" asked Yugi.
"Come on Yugi! Tristan and Joey are at school. They need to talk to you." Yugi had a worried look in his eyes. "Are they okay?" "Just come with me!" Tea ordered. Tea then started running. Yugi ran after her.
Tea and Yugi reached school, and found Joey and Tristan near the door. "Hi Joey!" Yugi greeted. "Hey Yuge." Joey replied halfheartedly.
"What's up, Joey? Tea said you wanted to talk to me." Joey nodded, then turned to Tristan and Tea. "Could you all please leave us alone for a moment? I need to talk to Yugi alone." he requested. Everyone departed, saying all kinds of good-byes to Yugi and Joey. Joey turned his attention back to the petite tri-colored boy.
"Yugi, I know you've been spending time with the new kid, Yami. I'm happy that you made a new friend, but I just gotta know Yugi. Is Yami treating you well?" asked Joey, looking at Yugi straight in the eye.
Yugi looked back at Joey. "Yes Joey. I'm sorry if you and the others feel neglected. I didn't mean to stop spending time with you." Yugi answered with sureness in his voice. Joey shook his head.
"It's okay Yuge. The gang and I are happy that you're happy. Just remember that we'll be at your side in friendship no matter what."
Yugi nodded. "Is there anything else you wanted to tell me?" asked Yugi kindly. After a long pause, Joey shook his head. "Just wanted to tell you that." he answered, smiling his smile. Yugi smiled, then walked off.
Class was boring, as usual. Yami was thinking about his love while the teacher was talking. 'I can't wait until tonight' he thought. 'Yugi and I will be together forever'
Suddenly, Yami saw a note flying to his desk. Thinking it was from Yugi, Yami opened it. Instead he was surprised at what the note said.
Meet me at the fountains at lunch. I need to talk to you about Yugi. Don't be late. -Joey Wheeler
Yami stared at the note. Of course he knew who Joey Wheeler is. He often got in trouble with Tristan. 'I wonder what this Joey needs to say about Yugi'
Lunch came, and Yugi was eating with Tristan and Tea. Joey, however, was not eating, but waiting for Yami to show up. "Grr!! The guy's 5 minutes late! He must be scared of me or doesn't know who I am or something!" he said out loud.
"I'm sorry I'm late. I had trouble finding the fountains, and I know who you are and I'm not intimidated by you." said a rich voice. Jeoy turned to the voice's direction and saw Yami standing there.
"So, why did you want to talk to me about Yugi, Joey?" asked Yami. Joey stood up and walked over to Yami.
"Look Yami, I know Yugi likes you, and from what I can tell, you two are good friends. When I'm not around him, I need someone to make sure he doesn't get killed or something." Yami just looked at Joey.
"Yami, I know you're a vampire. I know about Yugi's blood rep and I just need you to make a promise." Yami's eyes narrowed. "Yes?"
"I know you'll never harm Yugi, because if you wanted to you would've already done it. So promise me this." Yami got prepared.
"Promise you'll protect Yugi with your life." Joey begged. Yami turned his head and smiled.
"I promise you, Joey. Nothing will harm Yugi while I'm around." he reassured. "But, what will you do if I break this promise?" Joey smirked.
"I'll never trust you again and kill all your kind, including you." Yami nodded. "My word is my bond. I'll keep the promise." Joey gave him the thumbs-up sign, then walked away.
Soon school was out, and Yugi was at home, figuring out what to wear at the park. "Maybe this works." he said. He was wearing the outfit he wore when he battled Duke Devlin at Dungeon Dice Monsters. "I hope Yami will be there."
Yugi ran to the park, making it in record time. There was no one there at the park. But Yugi saw a bright yellow light ahead. He ran to it.
When he got there, he saw Yami with someone he never saw before. She had long chestnut hair that was straight and went to her thighs. She was wearing an Egyptian priestess outfit. Her eyes were golden and kind. Her skin was paler than the moon.
She was holding two upside-down pyramids, one in each hand. Yami was dressed the same as Yugi. He turned to Yugi.
"Hi Yugi. I'm going to offer you a choice. Those two pyramids this angel is holding is my soul item. Each vampire has a soul item, for them to keep their humanity. If you choose to, you and I can bond, and we'll both have my soul item, the Millenium Puzzle, on us. I will become a spirit, Yugi, because since I'm a vampire, I'm presumed dead, but if we bond together, nothing can tear us apart. That is my gift to you."
Yugi just stood there, unable to say anything. 'If I bond with Yami, he'll never leave me, but he won't be alive' he thought.
"Actually, there's a way for Yami to stay alive." the angel cutted in. "Hello Yugi, my name is Lavenia. I'm an angel who bonds vampires and humans together. As I was saying, Yami, there is a way for you to still be alive after the bonding. You have to draw your own blood onto your Millenium Puzzle, and solemnly say *I give up my immortality to have one lifetime with the one I bond with tonight*. After that, you and Yugi will be bonded in life and death. When Yugi dies, you'll die too. Do you want to do that, Yami?"
Yami looked at Yugi with caring eyes. "Only if my love wants a lifetime with me." he answered.
Yugi stared at Yami. 'He'll sacrifice his own immortality to be with me. No normal lover will do that. Plus, I want to spend my lifetime with him as well' he thought.
"Yami." said Yugi. "I will love to spend the rest of my days with you."
Yami and Lavenia smiled. "All right, you two! Let's get to work. Yugi, Yami, stand face-to-face with each other." she directed. Yugi and Yami did what she asked.
"Yami, draw your blood and put it on your Millenium Puzzle." Lavenia ordered, handing Yami a crimson dagger. Yami took the dagger, held up his wrist, sliced it, then allowed the blood to drop on the puzzle nestled in Lavenia's left hand. "Don't forget to say the oath." reminded Lavenia. Yami looked at Yugi.
"I give up my immortality to have one lifetime with the one I bond with tonight."
Yugi smiled, nearly going into tears. "All right, last part, seal with a kiss." said Lavenia, giggling. Yami and Yugi didn't hesitate. Yami pulled Yugi into a deep kiss, and Yugi returned it.
Golden light surrounded those two, while Lavenia was chanting. The bright light grew brighter, then faded. Yami and Yugi pulled away from the heated kiss. Both of then were wearing a Millenium Puzzle around their necks.
"Now you two are bonded forever." whispered Lavenia, then she disappeared. Yami looked at Yugi. "Want to go home?" he asked. Yugi nodded.
When they got home, Yugi went straight to his bedroom. "Aren't you tired?" he asked Yami. Yami shook his head. "No, aibou. I'll sleep a little later." he answered. Yugi frowned, then plopped on the bed.
It didn't take long for Yugi to fall asleep. When he did, Yami crept up to his room, and laid a white rose on his bed. "Sleep, my hikari. I'll always be here, even in death." he whispered.
