Yami hurried down the street walking briskly. He was about five minutes away from home if he hurried. The cool air nipped his face as he walked, his blue coat blowing in the wind behind him. He heard a loan bird chirping some twenty feet away, but it faded away as he got farther and farther from where it perched.

A few minutes breezed by as Yami took in his surroundings. He enjoyed living in Domino city. It was much different than being in ancient Egypt, or inside the millennium puzzle. He was now arriving at his front door. He walked right in to see Joey, Tea, and his beautiful Yugi. "hey guys"

"Hey Yam" Tea and Joey chimed.

"How was your walk?" continued Tea

"oh it was alright until it started raining a little." Answered Yami. " I gotta get something from my room though." As Yami walked out he realized someone was missing, "hey where's Tristan?"

"Oh he went to go pick up Bakura but he'll be back soon." Said Joey

"oh, okay" said Yami as he disappeared down the hall and into the room he shared with Yugi. Whenever they slept they were together. In fact most of the time they spent together in Yugi's body.

Yugi got up and followed him in after a minute or so.

"Hey little Yugi" Yami made his coat disappear

"hi, Yami"

"I'm glad you came in here" he made a new coat reappear that was nicer looking than the one he had on before.

"Yami you know how we were talking earlier? Well I'm really glad we told each other that. I feel much better now"

Yami walked over to Yugi. He leaned down and gave him a soft gentle kiss. Right now Yami just couldn't will himself to talk to Yugi about what he had been thinking. 'If I bring my thoughts up now it may ruin everything.' He decided to wait until later when the moment seemed more right. Besides, everything at the moment was seemingly perfect – exept for the absence of Tristan and Bakura for the trip to the hospital.

So many times Yugi had dreamed of this. In the back of his mind he really had wanted it to come true. A tingly feeling coursed through his body when Yami touched him. It felt like nothing he had ever experiences before.

Yugi put his arms around Yami hoping he could do something to Yami to make him feel the same way he did when Yami touched him.

Yami licked Yugi's upper lip and his mouth opened on impulse. Yami's tongue slid inside and played with Yugi's

'I've wanted to do this to him for so long. I hope he's enjoying this as much as I am. I just want to make him feel good like he makes me feel. His mouth feels good.tastes good. His lips are so soft, his tongue moves perfectly'

Yugi let out a soft moan. This proved to Yami that he was giving Yugi at least something he wanted.

They heard a light knocking noise and the front door opening. They knew they had to stop but neither of them wanted to pull away. Finally Yami did leaving Yugi wanting more but knowing now wasn't the time.

'hopefully he will do this to me again.'

Yami turned and left the room leaving the door open for Yugi. "Later Hikari." He said upon exiting, as though reading Yugi's mind. Yugi was pretty sure that he hadn't been under communication with Yami while thinking that...

Yugi stood for a few moments in awe. Then he left the room shutting the door behind him.

"Hurry up Yug" said Joey, "everyone's waiting for us."

Yugi and Joey hurried out the door towards the awaiting car.

~ ~ ~ * At the hospital * ~ ~ ~

All six of them piled out of the car.

"I'm sure glad you have a big car Joey so we weren't all squished in there" said Tea

"yeah well that glory of the king's hand card paid for more than just Serenity's operation"

They all hurried inside and to the 2nd floor of the hospital. Once they arrived at Serenity's room they went inside but she wasn't there.

"She's probably in one of the doctor's rooms or in an operation room. Maybe it was too bright in her room." Said Bakura sensibly

"Well we gotta find her" said Joey

Tristan turned and hurried out of the door followed by the others. In his haste he ran into a nurse.

"oops! Sorry. Hey, do you happen to know where the girl that usually stays in this room is?"

"yes, as a matter of fact, I do. I believe she's in the room – wait a moment no she was sent upstairs, or was that, hmm, I believe - She is down the hall. See that blue sign? It's the third door past that on the left."

"thanks" they all said hurrying down the hall. It seemed to take this woman forever to direct them correctly to Serenity and it seemed worse to Tristan who was most anticipating finding her.

Yugi went first, slowly opening the door that the nurse had instructed them to. A dim light filled the room. Serenity sat in a chair with the bandages still on her eyes. Two doctors stood over her. Once on each side.

One of the doctors spoke, "Excuse me, may I help you?"

"yes we are here to see Serenity get her bandages off her eyes" said Yugi, "we are friends of hers"

"How many of you are there"

"six"

"Only two people can be in here while she is getting them off. I'm sorry but that's the rule."

Yugi turned to his friends and his lover, "only two people can go in."

Bakura was the first to speak, "I think it should be Joey, because he's her brother. And Tristan, because he seems most eager to see her."

"That sounds good: said Yami "any objections?"

"Not at all"

"nope"

"It's fine with me"

"that sounds good"

"alright it's settled. Tristan and Joey go on in."

When Tristan walked into the room his eyes fell upon beautiful Serenity. Hopefully she would be his. Hopefully.

'Joey knows that I like her, but he doesn't know that I love her. At least Joey won't have a problem if we started seeing each other.'

The doctors finished preparing the room. "Are you ready for this Serenity?"

"I'm not sure"

"Just to let you know it may hurt some because your eyes aren't used to the light."

"Don't worry Seren, me and Joey are here with you while they're coming off" said Tristan reassuringly

"I'm ready"

The doctors started unwrapping and peeling off the gauze. To Joey and Tristan it seemed to take ages. As the bandages came off Tristan was becoming increasingly nervous. He wasn't quite sure why considering he had spent countless hours with her over the past year while she was in the hospital.

'My sister is finally going to come home and start going to school again. I'm so happy'

'Finally Seren gets to see me and me see her. I'm so happy!'

The doctor was now blacking Tristan's view of Serenity. He tried to look around the man but couldn't.

Finally the doctor stepped aside to reveal the prettiest girl Tristan had ever seen.

Serenity gasped as she saw Joey and Tristan. "You've both grown so much- the last time I really saw you guys was when we were so little"

Tristan couldn't say anything. He was dumbstruck. All he could do was stare at her. Joey realized this and took hold of her attention.

"Wow I can't believe it's been that long!" he walked over and kneeled by her

The doctors had left the room and the four others shuffled in.

"Wow! You guys all came to see me?"

"Yep"

"that's right"

"of course"

There were only three replies because Bakura had not yet met Serenity.

Joey jumped up and said "oh Seren this is our friend Bakura. We just met him recently. And Bakura, this is my sister Serenity"

"yes, yes I know." He said, and then turned towards Serenity "I've heard much about you- all good things of course"

She blushed slightly

Tristan then spoke up "Hey Seren, do you have to stick around here awhile or can we haul ass?" he said casually, his usual confidence returning slightly.

"I think we can leave as soon as soon as we get my things"

They all turned or got up from sitting and headed out the door. Tristan realized Serenity was having some trouble seeing and needed help walking.

He went to her and put one arm around her waist, the other holding her hand.

"Thank you" she said, smiling.

"oh don't mention it" said Tristan, blushing a bright shade of crimson.

They arrived at Serenity's hospital room and gathered all her things.

"Now we're out of here!" said Joey

~ ~ ~ * In the Car * ~ ~ ~

"Hey Yugi and Yami" said Bakura

"yeah" they both replied

"do you guys think I could spend the night at your house tonight?"

"sure, why?" said Yami

In his head Yami sensed Yugi not wanted Bakura to spend the night but they both knew that they couldn't just say no, and besides, sleepovers with Bakura always proved to be fun, despite always being dead tired the next few days.

*'Don't worry little Yugi, if I am part of you we can do things without Bakura ever knowing'

"Well my parents are out of town tonight and they wanted me to find somewhere to stay"

Yami Bakura laughed an evil laugh inside his head. The real Bakura was trapped inside wanting so badly to be able to warn Yugi. Warn him that he may lose Yami forever.
