Summer: Aw don't cry Summer. Um no there will be no Yami in this story. I didn't really see a place where I could fit him in, so I excluded him. Maybe in another story I'll write him a part. I would answer these questions but it will give away the plot. I guess all I can say is, wait and see. ^_^

Chapter 3- Yugi's Shocking Discovery
The sun was shining brightly in the morning sky. Joey Wheeler whistling softly as he walked down the street toward the Game Shop. Since Yugi and his Grandpa had left Joey took care of Grandpa's shop. He got to the shop surprised to see that the door was already open.
What da hell? Joey thought to himself as he gazed at the open door perplexed. Thinking that someone had broken in he immediately rushed in, only to be shocked to see who was standing behind the counter of the shop. "Mr. Motou?" He asked shocked. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming or seeing things.
"Hello Joseph." Solomon greeted him with a cheerful smile on his face.
Joey lowered his hands from his eyes and walked toward Yugi's Grandpa. "Mr. Motou, when did you come back?" Joey asked.
"Late last night." He replied.
"Is Yugi back too?" Joey asked excitedly.
"Yes, of course." Solomon replied.
"Can I go up and see him, Mr. Motou?" Joey asked.
Solomon chuckled. "Of course, Joey, but he's not here." He told him. "He got up really early. I think he went to the park."
"Danks Mr. Motou!" Joey said as he headed out of the shop. He popped his head back in the shop. "It's great to have you back!" He added before he left.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Yugi couldn't sleep last night, no matter how hard he tried. He spent most of the night tossing and turning, so this morning he was up really early. As he walked down the streets of Domino, his mind wandered to his friends. It had been so long since he'd seen them and of course he had missed them greatly. Thinking of them also filled him with dread. How was he going to tell them that he was sick and that he was going to die soon? He pushed these thoughts from his mind as he walked.
He didn't know where his legs were taking him, but soon enough he found himself walking on green grass, hearing laughter and chatter around him. He glanced up to see that he was at the public park. It seemed to be full despite the earliness of the morning. Yugi looked for some shade and sat down under a tree. He was slightly hidden by some bushes and he didn't mind that at all. He didn't want to be disturbed. He had only been there for a few minutes when he heard something that caught his interest.
"Téa you threw it too high!" He heard someone yell in complaint.
Téa? Yugi perked up. It couldn't be his friend Téa, could it? He glanced toward the sound of the voice and he saw them. They were quite a long distance from him. He saw a tall boy with black hair and amethyst eyes and there was a girl with him, but all he could see of her was her back and her long brown hair. Could it be? Was it Téa?
"Sorry about that Mokuba." She said apologetically, laughing gently as Mokuba went to retrieve the Frisbee they had been playing with.
Mokuba. So that's Mokuba, Yugi thought to himself as he watched them. What are Téa and Mokuba doing together at the park? The answer to his question came strolling toward them a few seconds later. A tall figure dressed in a white trench coat and black jeans with brown hair. It was the CEO of Kaiba Corp.
"Seto!" Yugi heard Mokuba yell in glee at the sight of his big brother.
Yugi hid low in the bushes, making sure he was out of their view. He saw Mokuba rush to Kaiba's side and wrap his arms around him. The girl, Yugi felt certain it was Téa, also walked toward the embracing brothers. When the brothers broke apart, she too hugged the tall CEO and he wrapped his arms around her as well. Yet the most shocking part of all was that the cold hearted CEO was actually smiling as the girl held him.
Yugi had seen enough and very slowly and discreetly got up from where he was hiding. He didn't even look back as he headed out of the park and back onto the street. In his haste he ended up bumping into someone, sending both of them reeling down onto the ground.
Yugi landed on his butt and immediately began to apologize. "I'm so sorry! I didn't see you!" He apologized with his head bowed.
"Don't worry 'bout it, Yug." The other person replied in a cheerful voice.
Yugi glanced up to see Joey looking at him with a big smile on his face. "Joey!" He exclaimed happily. He lunged forward and wrapped his arms around his best friend. "It's great to see you." He told him.
Joey hugged him back. "It's great to see ya too, Yug." Joey told him. They broke apart and raised themselves from the sidewalk. "Why didn't ya tell me ya were coming back home?" Joey asked him once they were standing.
"Well I wanted it to be a surprise." Yugi told him quickly, smiling. Relax. I have to act normal, Yugi thought to himself. He didn't want anyone to find out he was sick.
"Well now dat yer back, ya might be able to knock some sense into Téa." Joey told him.
"Into Téa?" Yugi repeated confused. "What's wrong with Téa?"
"She's been datin' dat creep, Kaiba." He told him angrily.
So that was her at the park with Mokuba and Seto, Yugi realized to himself, not really listening to Joey's ranting about Kaiba.
"Yug! Yug, are ya listening to me?" Joey's voice snapped Yugi out of his thoughts.
"Yeah, Joey, I heard you." Yugi told him.
"Great!" Joey said cheerfully. "So when are ya goin' to see her? How are ya plannin' to win her back?"
"Wait!" Yugi exclaimed. "When am I what?"
"Goin' to win her back from Kaiba." Joey told him.
"I'm not going to do that, Joey." Yugi told him aghast. "She wants to be with him and I'm not going to break them apart."
"Yug, ya hav' to!" Joey groaned. "I know ya like her. Ya still do!"
Yugi opened his mouth to say that he didn't, but if he did it would be a lie. He did love her and he had never told her. Now she was with Kaiba and it was too late.
"It's never too late to tell her how ya feel Yug." Joey told him. "Ya never kno' Yug. Ya might find out dat she likes ya too."
"I don't think so, Joey. She's with Kaiba, so we know that she doesn't like me that way." He said but his voice held a hint of uncertainty. Yugi was going to say more when he felt a throbbing pain in his head.
"Yug, wat's wrong?" Joey asked him concerned.
"Nothing, Joey, I just didn't get enough sleep last night. It's making my head hurt." Yugi told him. As quickly as the pain had come, it left. "I'm going back home. I'll see you later Joey."
"Later, Yug." Joey told him as Yugi turned around and headed back home.
