We sat around talking and laughing after we ate (except Joey who was still eating). Everyone was staying as long as possibly.
When everyone was gone except Yugi and Ryou who seem great for company. We sat around talking for about ten minutes, about whatever came up. There was a huge crash from upstairs.
"What was that?" Yugi asked in alarm.
"I don't know." And I really didn't but I had an idea of it. "I'll go check it out."
"What if it's a burglar you won't be able to take him on yourself." Ryou looked at the floor, clearly blushing.
"Well, if you want to come and see then get off the settee." I moved on towards the stairs.
'Ra, that better of not been you.' I thought communicating to Ra.
(Sorry little one, I'll pick up the dresser that I knocked down.) Thumps came from upstairs.
'That's not what I'm worried about Ra. Both Yugi and Ryou are coming upstairs with me.'
(Don't worry, I'll disguise myself.)
'Whatever,just do it quick; we're at the top of the stairs.' I panicked.
"I think it came from that room." Yugi pointed at my bedroom.
We shuffled to the door, it creaked open. Flicking on the light we saw a huge mess on the floor. My eyes widened when I saw a figure picking everything up off the floor.
A blond boy with red streaks in his hair was crouched down on the floor picking up some broken objects. He looked up; his eyes were red as well. When he stood he clearly looked like Tristan's height, but around the age eighteen.
'Ra, where are you?' I kept looking at the boy.
(You're staring at me little one.) Ra smiled nervously.
"Who are you?" Yugi demanded.
"My name's Ra." Ra's voice sound as an eighteen year old.
"It's alright Yugi, let's just say he's a friend." my voice shook.
Both Yugi and Ryou looked at me, I obviously didn't convince them. Ra walked towards me, completely graceful.
"Sorry about the mess little one, I didn't think I would knock that over." Ra bowed to me.
"It's alright Ra, we'll clean that up later." I smiled slightly at the mess.
He turned to the boys, "You must be Yugi and Ryou. I've been waiting to meet you both."
"Nice to meet you Ra." They said in unison.
"How do you know each other Ash?" Ryou asked softly.
"Um...well... we're...we're old friends." I stumbled.
"How come you never mentioned him?" Yugi asked looking from me to Ra.
"It never came up in subject." I shrugged walking back downstairs.
The boys followed obediently down the stairs to the living room. We took seats on different couches. Ra came and wrapped his arms around my waist, making me sit on part his lap. I stared at him in the eyes; he just sat there under me smiling.
"So, Ra where are you from?" Yugi broke our silence.
"Egypt." Ra smiled sweetly.
"Are you attending Domino High?" Ryou asked looking at the floor.
"No, I don't really attend school anymore." Ra looked at Ryou closely.
"So, Ash are you two going out, cause it seems like you two are really close not to mention you'd make a great couple." Yugi smiled with a little laugh.
Ryou seemed to dislike this comment because he covered his face totally.
"Yugi." I blushed a bright red, "We're not going out, and we're good friends. Plus Ra happens to be my guardian; he has been around since I was young."
Yugi shrugged his shoulders, "I should get going home; it's late."
"Hold on Yugi." He stopped by the living room door. "I was wondering, do you have a split personality or something because when you duel it's like it's not you, like you turn into someone else."
"I'm not sure. When I duel I feel like someone else takes over, a more experience person." Yugi looked at me, "Why do you ask?"
"Because the day I saw you duelling, I felt like I've known somehow, like you were from my past life." I blushed admitting that to him.
"Strange, too bad we can't find out how to get this other spirit out of me." Yugi thought.
"I can do it." Ra said loudly.
We all looked at him in confusion.
"I can get the spirit out of you, just so he can walk around and everything but he'd still be a part of you Yugi." Ra looked up at the small boy. "Of course we'd have to be alone for it."
I squirmed out from Ra, grabbed Ryou and went out of the room, down to the recreation room. We entered the dark room on account I couldn't find the light switch right away.
"Um...Ash, can I talk to you?" I had finally found the light.
"Sure, what is it?" I walked over to a settee and sat down.
"Well, I've been meaning to ask you, how do you get a girl you really like to notice you because they don't notice you at all really." Ryou blushed at the embarrassing question.
"Well you could do something really romantic for her or you could wear something she's sure to notice you in." I thought for a minute, "Yeah I think one of those would work or if all else fails just go straight out and tell her."
"Thank you for the suggestions." Ryou thanked.
The door opened Ra and Yugi both walked in along with taller version of Yugi. I quickly stood up and walked forward. Before I reached the taller version of Yugi, Ra pulled me to the side.
"He doesn't remember being the Pharaoh so don't do anything drastic," Ra told me, "Also call him Yami Yugi or just Yami."
My eyes filled with tears but I nodded in understanding. Ra stepped aside so Yami could see me.
"Nice to meet you Yami, I'm Ash." I held beck my tears and smiled.
He nodded, "Nice to meet you."
"And that's Ryou." Yugi pointed at Ryou.
"I should get going or my Grandpa will get worried." Yugi turned to leave, "Yami are you coming?"
"About that Yugi, I was kind of wondering if Yami could stay please. I mean if he wants to leave he can just wish it upon himself, can't he Ra?" I gave them the puppy eyes.
"Yes he could do that." Ra assured me.
"Well, it's up to Yami." Yugi smiled, "As for me I have to get going."
I went with Yugi upstairs to the door; he turned and smiled at me.
"Thank you for dinner it was great." Yugi smiled.
"No problem, I'm just glad I'm not going be alone in the house tonight. Thank you so much for letting Ra bring out Yami, you don't realize how much it means to me." I hugged the short tri-coloured hair boy. "I'll see you around sometime this weekend if not Monday."
"Bye." Yugi left the house.
I waved goodbye and went back down stairs to find the boys talking about something. They went silent when I entered the room; I just looked around at them.
"So, what were you guys talking about?" I asked looking from one face to another.
They all blushed to a small extent; I eyed each of them up.
"Fine then be mean and don't tell me, I'll get it out of one of you some how." I sat on the settee with my legs crossed, "So, what do you guys want to do?"
They all stayed silent, looking at me. I stood up, walked over to them, and stared.
"Well?" I asked crossing my arms.
Ding Dong
We all went upstairs while I answered the door.
"Hello is Ryou here?" an old man asked.
"Yes, um hold on. Ryou." I called for the white haired boy.
Ryou came to the door, "Dad, you're early."
"Yes I know, something came up at work and we need to go out of the country now." Ryou's dad's voice was low.
"Um...sir if it's alright with you and Ryou, he could stay here. I mean if you don't want to go out of the country of course Ryou." I looked at each of them.
"Are there adults around here?" Ryou's dad didn't seem to have a problem with him staying here.
"No, my uncle and his family are out of the country until Monday night but Ra is as good as an adult here, I mean he's sort of looking after me." I quickly added the part of Ra in.
Ryou's dad took a long look at Ra who stepped forward, "well it's up to Ryou."
"Are you sure it won't be a burden to have me here?" Ryou asked softly.
"Of course it won't be a burden." I stated, "Isn't that right Ra?"
"Course not, you're always welcomed here." Ra smiled sincerely.
"Alright, then I'll be back with some of your things from home." Ryou's dad left the house.
"This is going to be fun having someone other then Ra around here." I shut the door and smiled. "No offence Ra."
"No offence taken little one," Ra looked around, "So what would you all like to do?"
"We could watch a movie." I suggested to them.
"Sure, sounds like a good idea." Ra walked to the living room.
We all sat around looking at the different movies we could watch.
"Ok, someone pick something; it's boys choice." I flopped down on a chair.
"How about this one?" Ryou held up a movie.
"Put it in and press play." I stood up and went to the kitchen.
I quickly made some popcorn and grabbed four cans of coke. I made my way back to the living room and set everything on the coffee table. I sat in between Ra and Ryou on the couch, Yami sat in a chair. We got half through the movie when the door bell rang and Ryou's dad was here with all his stuff. I quickly showed him to the guest room where he would be spending his weekend then we got back to the movie.
Movie after movie we watched, I had eventually put my legs across Ra's lap and put my head on Ryou's lap. I arranged myself like that for a long time until I eventually drifted off to sleep.
I woke up to something warm beside me; I rubbed my eyes and noticed it was Ra sleeping next to me. I got up carefully as to not wake him. I noticed I was still dressed in the clothes from yesterday so I grabbed some stuff and went to the bathroom. I took a quick hot shower and got dressed in a blue spaghetti- strap shirt and a blue mini skirt. I tied my hair in a messy looking bun and went downstairs.
I walked into the kitchen and immediately noticed Ryou dressed in black leather pants with a black belt, and a black leather sleeveless shirt.
I tip-toed up behind him and shouted, "Morning!"
He jumped a few inches in the air and spun around. Our faces were very close together but I leaned to the side a bit to see what he was doing.
"Breakfast." He peeped up.
I stood normally back in place, "I'm not interested in that, I'm interested in what you're wearing. Personally I think it looks good on you."
Ryou blushed madly at my comment and went back to making breakfast. Someone came clobbering down the stairs. We turned around and saw Ra standing in his boxers.
"Ra put some cloth on!" I yelled at him.
He looked down at himself and ran back upstairs. I burst out into a fit of laughter. Ryou looked at me like I was going mad.
I took a deep breath, "Never mind Ryou." I stopped laughing.
Ra came down the stairs again wearing a red t-shirt with flames on it and red track pants. We all sat around eating the breakfast that Ryou had prepared. I smothered Ryou in compliments so he wouldn't stop blushing.
"Alright what do you guys want to do today?" I started cleaning all the dishes.
"Well I'm going to stay here, if you don't mind and play video games." Ra winked at Ryou but I didn't notice.
"Fine, but remember to clean up the mess you made in my room yesterday night." I reminded him, "So, Ryou what are we going to do today?"
I finished cleaning everything up and was facing him. Ra left the room leaving us alone.
"Want to see what Yugi and the gang are up to?" I asked without thinking.
"Uh...sure." Ryou followed me but was pretty quiet about it.
"Alright then we'll take my car." I unlocked the doors of a black mustang convertible.
We were off to the game shop where the gang was already assembled. I parked the car and waved at them as they came out.
"Hey guys." Yugi greeted us.
"Hello." Ryou and I said in unison.
"Nice wheels, didn't know you could drive." Joey looked at the car.
"There's a lot you don't know about me Joey." I laughed, "What are you guys up to?"
"We were just on our way to an event at the museum, they're having some celebrity duellers go and play there." Yugi announced excitedly.
"Well hop in then," I smiled, "I can get you guys the best seats."
"How can you do that?" Tristan asked while getting in, "the best seats are for VIP and people who paid big bucks."
"I know." I pulled away from the curb, "but I work with museums all over the world and this one is no exception, plus the VIP seats are ground level nothing exciting about that. The seats I'm talking about are a bird's eye view where all the celebrities sit."
We arrived at the museum; I let everyone out and went to park the car. I met up with them at the doors.
"Tickets please." The door man held out his hand.
"I work here sir, designer of the new Egyptian exhibit." I told him. "Now can my guests and I enter or not?"
"Oh sorry about that Miss Moony, I should have recognized you. Yes, you and your guests may enter to watch the matches. If I'm not mistaken Mr. Quigley is awaiting your arrival in the top box." The door man told me.
"Alright, thank you." We entered the museum and got up to the top box just as the first match started.
"Miss Moony, you're here." Mr. Quigley rushed towards me.
"Hello Mr. Quigley." I smiled, "any luck with finding the idem?"
"Unfortunately no." he took a quick look at my friends, "Who are your friends?"
"Oh, sorry, guys this is Mr. Quigley owner of the museum." I started pointing to people, "Mr. Quigley this is Tristan, Joey, Ryou, Tea, and Yugi. Hope you don't mind, they're my guests."
"No not at all. It's nice to meet you all; I hope you have fun watching the duels." Mr. Quigley left.
Everyone went back to watching the duelling match.
"Moony." I turned around to face Isis, "Have you found it yet?"
"No, not yet but as soon as I find it I'll give it to you, I promise that." I assured her before she left.
I walked up to Yugi and whispered, "Can you let Yami out please?"
"Yeah sure." Yugi went off and came back a few minutes later with Yami.
"Yami, come with me to the Egyptian exhibit please." I tugged on his arm.
"Sure, why not." Yami let himself be led by me to the exhibit.
I didn't realize Ryou was watching us and heading to the exhibit as well.
