"At Last. . .

            My love has come along.

I watched as my Aibou, my Hikari turn his back to me. He hated me for risking people's lives when I was dueling. He hated me for hurting him and his friends. I wanted to stop him. I didn't want him to leave me. I was Yami. Being left alone in the dark was how I always lived. So why can't I just face it?

My lonely days are over,

                        And life is like a song

I ran after my Aibou and stopped him. "What do you want now Yami?" He asked me. What did I want? I wanted him to stay with me. I wouldn't be able to survive without him. I . . . I loved him. "Aibou . . ." was all I could say to him. I couldn't speak. He would probably hate me if I told me that I loved him. Not in a way that I just want to be friends with him, but more. I didn't know if my Aibou would feel the same way or not. He just stared at me, waiting for my answer.

At last. . .

            The stars above are blue.

I couldn't speak. I just didn't want him to be hurt. His father had left him when he was young and only his mother sent him to live with his grandfather. I saved him from Pegasus, putting my Aibou's life on the line. I shouldn't have let him played in that Shadow game. He could have died and that would have been my fault. Everything I did wrong, my Aibou blamed it on me and didn't like it.

My heart was wrapped up in clovers

                             The night I looked at you.

"Yami, I have to go meet up with my friends. Do you want to come with me?" He asked me. I looked into his eyes. "That's okay Aibou. I'll stay home and wait for you." I said to him. I looked into his eyes. Those eyes always got to me. Whenever I saw his eyes, I feel somewhat comforted. He looked like an angel. A Hikari angel that came down to save me and he certainly has saved me.


I found a dream,

I guess that I do cause him a lot of pain. By making him suffer by risking his life. I couldn't take it anymore. I knew that my only choice was to stay at home and wait for his return. I watched the hours past by. It was now 8 pm. The sun had gone done about 2 hours ago and my Aibou still hadn't come back yet. "Where did he go?" I mumbled to myself quietly. I wanted to go look for him, but I knew that he didn't like it when I worried about him too much.

That I could speak to

                        A dream that i can call my own

"I'm home!" I heard my Aibou's voice and smiled. I greeted him at the door. He must have forgotten that his grandfather was at Egypt again. "He left this morning remember? He won't be coming back till next Saturday." I said him as I sat back down on the couch. "Oh yea. haha! I forgot about that." Yugi said as he was laughing. I looked at him and smiled. It made me happy looking at him, but at the same time it hurt. I was Yami. Never allowed to experience any happiness or love, but living in hell with darkness and depression. I didn't care. I still cared and loved my Aibou with all my heart. I would even give up my life for him. I wanted his affection, his attention, his kiss, but most of all, I wanted to be his lover.

I found a thrill, to press my cheek to

                                                A thrill that I have never known

My Aibou collapsed on the couch tired from the day. He looked at me and smiled. His sweet, innocent, childish smiled. I loved it. I smiled back at him and he then turned on the TV. He sat there drinking his water, watching whatever was on. He always fell asleep on the couch while watching TV and I would end up taking him to his room, tucking him in bed. It was like that everyday Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I cherished these days. I was able to watch my Aibou and spend my time with him. He always fell asleep around the same time and I noticed that he was getting tired.


Oh, then you smile, you smile

                                      Then the spell was cast

My Aibou was soon sleeping on the couch. I smiled. I then picked up my Aibou and seated him on my lap. His head was leaning against my shoulder. I looked at his sleeping face. He looked even more innocent. His cuteness was always killing me. I loved it. This was my chance to give him a kiss, but I had a feeling that he would be mad at me and would treat me differently from before. I didn't want this. I wanted him to love me. I decided to take the chance. I leaned in and felt our lips brushing against each other. I parted away and looked at him. He was starting to wake up.

Now here we are in heaven,

For you are mine

He's going to hate me and get mad. I knew it. He was still awake when I kissed him. Yugi just stared at me. He didn't have a sign of disbelief or disappointment. Instead he did something that surprised me. He had leaned in and kissed me back. He parted away and looked at me. "Yami. Um, I know that you would think that I was strange, but I love you." I looked at him shocked. What did he just say? I couldn't believe my ears. He had felt the same way for me as I did for him. "No Aibou. I don't think that your strange. I love you too." I said to him. Once again, the distance fades between us as we fall into another kiss, this one much deeper with more emotion. I then gently brush his tongue on to his lips almost asking to come in like some one knocking lightly on a door. Surprisingly, My Aibou parts his lips and I was able to slip my tongue in. My kiss deepens once again and the world around me starts spinning. This was what I had wanted. I had become his lover.
