Love Among Friends
Chapter 12: The Game Continues
Meanwhile, Yugi had just discovered his yami's disappearance. No sooner than he was about to voice his yami's absence, he felt the pharaoh's spirit at his back. As he turned to face Yami, their lips met. Any question about his yami's absence was forgotten as Yugi brushed his lips against Yami's, and Yami claimed them once again with his own. Yami pulled Yugi into his lap, and when he and Yugi came up for air, they noticed that everyone was staring at them.
Bakura smirked, "Guess what, pharaoh? It's my turn again, so truth or dare?"
"Dare, of course," Yami muttered in a voice that was very unhappy about his moment with his aibou being disturbed.
"I dare you to kiss Seto Kaiba on the lips for one full minute in the front yard!" Bakura dared.
Yami's face turned completely white. ' What if Seto gets the wrong idea and thinks that now I return his feelings? If Yugi and Joey think that we've been cheating on them, they would be so heartbroken....Wait, I might not even need to do this dare, Yugi would never agree to it!' he thought. He had opened his mouth to protest, but instead turned to his aibou who was still sitting in his lap.
"Would it bother you if I did this dare?" Yami asked aloud. ' Please say yes.'
Yami needn't have worried. Yugi's eyes brimmed with tears. "I wouldn't be able to stand even the thought of you kissing someone else." He turned to Bakura. "You're so mean, I don't see Yami making Ryou kiss Marik!" Malik growled and picked up his Millennium Rod, brandishing it threateningly.
Yugi's tears suddenly stopped and he was unusually quiet for someone that had been so upset only moments before. Thinking he knew the reason for Yugi's sudden change in feelings, he made his aibou face him. The eye of Horus glowed on Yugi's forehead and his eyes that had been so carefree and happy, were now cold and empty. Using the magic of his Millennium Puzzle, he found that the magic verified his hunch.
"Marik! Get out of my aibou's mind! He is not one of your mind slaves!" Yami growled, with clenched fists.
"You're in no position to have any say in your aibou's fate," smirked Marik.
"You're going down!" Yami threatened.
"Bring it on!" Marik insisted, motioning for Yami to come toward him.
Marik who was expecting a magical attack hardly had time to defend himself before Yami was running and tackling him around the waist, causing them both to end up sprawled on the floor.
Still trying to matain his dignity, Marik just grinned, sitting up on his elbows and said "Is that all you got? I said bring it!"
"You asked for it!" Yami smiled inwardly. "Tickle attack!" He suddenly exclaimed, before once again diving onto the other spirit, tickling his stomach and other random spots.
"......I......give.....I.....give..." Marik managed to choke out through his laughter. When the former pharoah refused to give in, Marik tried to enlist some help from his aibou, but found that the rod must have slipped from his hand when Yami had first tackled him. Malik saw his yami's present predicament and started to come to his rescue, but was stopped by a wall that Yami had conjured mentally.
"Say you'll restore my aibou to his normal state!" demanded the angry pharaoh. "or it certainly won't be a laughing matter." To his surprise, the other spirit complied without any resistance.
"He was getting boring anyway...." Marik muttered as Yami glared at him. "All right, all right, I'll change him back..." he pointed his Millennium Rod at the boy with tricolored hair.
Yami pushed Marik away as he ran to his aibou. He looked into his eyes and saw once again the innocence and joy in those beautiful lavender eyes. Yami made a silent vow to never let Yugi be corrupted by Malik or Marik ever again. Even though it had only been a few minutes, who knows what damage Marik had done, what thougts he had poisoned his aibou with. He shook his head, not wanting to think about it. He slipped his arms around his aibou's waist and picked him up, not trusting him to be within a few feet of Marik. Yami immediately moved Yugi to the other side of the room, away from Marik, carefully settling himself on the carpet and pulling his hikari into his lap, while glaring suspiciously at Marik and Malik.
"So, I'll ask again, Yugi, do you mind if Yami kisses Seto Kaiba?" Bakura inquired.
Yugi's eyes once again started to fill with tears, but he quickly wiped them away. He craned his neck, so he could look behind him at his yami whose lap he was currently sitting in.
"I guess it would be okay..." Yugi finally said. "Just as long as you don't really mean it...."
The instant the words left Yugi's mouth, Bakura grinned. "I guess it's settled then, pucker up pharaoh!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seto jumped when he heard footsteps coming toward Yami's room. His eyes darted frantically as he searched for a place to hide. Before he could react, the door had swung open and revealed a very stressed looking yami. He looked at Kaiba with great pain showing in his eyes as he finally choked out the last thing in the world he wanted to say.
"Kaiba, Bakura just dared me to kiss you in front of everyone out in the front yard." His eyes narrowed slightly. "Why haven't you changed back into your clothes yet? The gang will be here in a minute, wondering what's taking us so long."
Seto had the hair dye still in his hair and was still dressed in Yami's favorite leather outfit. But it wasn't until he had managed to slip into the outfit that he realized since Yami was about a foot or so shorter, his clothes would be very tight on Seto. He scuffed his foot on the navy blue carpet, not taking his eyes off of the floor. Yami cleared his throat, informing the brunette that he wanted a reason for his sudden silence. After a few moments of awkward silence, Seto finally decided to tell him.
"I'm stuck in your leather outfit and I didn't realize that the hairdye was permanent; it won't wash out!" the brunette protested. Well actually, he had known that the hairdye was permanent, but he hadn't anticipated getting caught in a situaton like this. What were they going to do now?

Sorry for the long wait....although most authors don't update as much as I do, but I tried to make this chapter almost twice as long, in honor of my loyal reviewers! Thanks to everyone that reviewed and waited patiently for me to get my lazy butt on the computer to upload. Also, just incase I don't update for awhile for an extended period of time, my sister tends to act like a jack@$$ and gets my computer and internet connection taken away. Its really screwed up.... Any way, now that I'm done rambling, read and review! Also, if anyone has any ideas that will make the plot more interesting, please share and I will try to give you credit for your genius!
