Nightmare

Thought I'd update so that's exactly what I did. I love you.

Yugi woke up smiling. It was a frosty Sunday morning.

Sitting up in bed, Yugi gazed about, his eyes resting on the window as if expecting Yami to be sitting there still, staring into the long-time gone stars.

"Thank-you, Yami", Yugi whispered quietly as he slipped out of bed, tredding across the floor to his drawers.

Once he was dressed in his usual leather attire, which looked extremely odd on the small, innocent boy, he made his way down stairs into the kitchen. Solomon and Yami were already at the breakfast table. Grandpa had his nose in the newspaper, his cereal abandoned beside him. Yami was leaning against the bench, staring vacantly at the ceiling.

"G'Morning, Grandpa!", Yugi chirped cheerfully, sidling over to the bench as he did before looking Yami into the eye and whispering,"Good Morning, Yami".

Grandpa flung the newspaper in the air,"Good Morning, Yugi! Great day, isn't it?", the old man cried delightedly, literally leaping out of his seat as he raced over to Yugi and Yami, pulling them both into a tight embrace, leaving both yami and hikari thoroughly confused.

"Um.. what's wrong, Grandpa?", Yami asked nervously, watching the elder suspisciously. It wasn't that he didn't trust him, it was just that.. well.. no, he didn't trust him at all.

Grandpa glared at Yami then grinned at Yugi.

"Well, seeing as Yugi's seventeenth birthday is in three weeks time, I've decided..", Grandpa paused for effect,"..to allow Yugi to date! So I'm going to teach Yugi about the female species!"

Silence. Then.. Yami burst into a fit of laughter.

"What on earth are you talking about? Yugi has always been allowed to date!", Yami chuckled.

Solomon glared at Yami, pulling the unusually quiet Yugi to his chest,"If Yugi had been allowed to date, do you think he and Tea would be only best friends?", Grandpa countered.

"Tea isn't Yugi's best friend, Joey is", Yami replied, glaring at Grandpa,"And Yugi doesn't want to date Tea anyway, do you Yugi?"

Yugi opened his mouth to reply but was promptly cut off my Solomon Motou,"What do you know! You just want that nice girl to yourself! You want to steal her from my grandson, you.. thief and.. you crazy spirit person! Get out of my house!"

Yami glared defiantly at the crazy old man,"I do not want Tea! Yugi can have Tea for all I care!", he lied,"And if I'm a crazy spirit, well you're a crazy old man!"

"You're calling me old, you hypocritical 5000 year old pharaoh?!", Grandpa spat, clutching at Yugi.

"Hey, well at least it doesn't show you--", Yugi suddenly launched himself at Yami, knocking him off his feet, practically in tears.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!", he screamed, pulling himself to his feet as he ran to his room, tears now running freely down his soft, pale cheeks.

"You're evil..", Solomon hissed, bending down to jab at Yami from where he lay sprawled on the ground, in a state of shock. The old man raced off to 'comfort' his grandson.

"Yugi..", Yami whispered sadly, his heart aching as he silently pulled himself to his feet and left the house.

Review, please?
