CHAPTER EIGHT: FIRST KISS (AWW…) (by Rhapsody)

Isis stirred one last time and then sighed happily.  Her evil love potion was completed—now, how to get it to Yami?

"Isis had finally finished the first half of her plan—her love potion was completed.  She had but one dilemma now—how was she to get Yami to drink it?  She thought for a few long moments, knowing that genius would soon manifest itself…" she narrated aloud while thinking.  Then she had an idea…

"And her brain did not fail her.  Isis had learned through her intelligence recently that Ryou Bakura, one of Yami's closest friends, had taken a job at an ice cream parlor."

Okay, so it hadn't been intelligence, she had just wanted a vanilla cone.  But her readers didn't have to know that…

"Furthermore, through Isis's exquisite web of contacts, she knew a way to get this potion to Ryou, whose Dark would gladly slip her concoction into Yami's next cone."

Isis ended her narration for a day and skipped off to annoy her brother (Malik) until he promised to give the potion to Bakura, his only friend (after their arguments about who would murder Yami had ceased, they had developed a friendly companionship, united by their hatred).

Yami's nose was itching.  Someone is talking about me, he thought, and carefully took his hand from a tree branch to scratch.

"Ssh!" (Dark) Kikai hissed.  She motioned him closer so he could see…  They were both perched in a tree above their Lights' picnic site so they could watch the pair below.

"Aww, they're so cute…" Kikai whispered to him as they observed Yugi and (Light) Kikai, who had just met up under the tree.  Taking each other's hands with a slight flush on their faces, they sat down on the blanket.

"I can't believe Yugi has the courage to kiss her," Yami whispered back.  In his experience, Yugi was a quiet, innocent sort of guy.

"Well, he didn't actually say he would, but my Light thinks he will."

The two below had let go of each other's hands to eat the food L. Kikai had packed.

Y. Kikai, sensing that no action would happen in the middle of their meal, turned back to her boyfriend and smiled, lifting her eyebrows in invitation.  He slunk as close to her as possible and closed the distance with a kiss.  They had to occupy their time somehow…

There was a rustling in the tree above them and L. Kikai looked up apprehensively.  Seeing no one, she returned to her meal.  It didn't take her long and soon she and Yugi had cleaned up their things.  She scooted closer to him, acutely aware of his body heat by her side.  She found she couldn't look him in the eye because of the way she was thinking.

Will he kiss me?  Maybe…  I—I hope so.

"What are you thinking?" Yugi asked her with a smile.  His hand found hers and he squeezed it.

"N-nothing," she stammered, a blush rising to her cheeks.

"You're so cute when you blush," Yugi whispered in her ear.  He traced her earlobe with a fingertip.

By now are you wondering where innocent lil Yugi has learned these moves?  Then read the following advertisement!

COMMERCIAL END

"Good book…" Yugi mumbled.

"What?" L. Kikai asked with a puzzled smile.

"Er… nothing…"

Then he leaned over and kissed her.
