Beginning of a storm.
Yami felt almost giddy not that he would admit that to anyone, not even his Aibou. He was in close proximity to Seto Kaiba and had a reason to be. He was so caught up in his thoughts of the CEO that he barely registered what was being said around him.
"So do you guys want to do anything else or should we go to bed?" Mokuba asked.
"I vote for stayin' up." Joey said. The others all nodded since none of them were tired.
"Great!" the young Kaiba screamed pulling them all into the large games room. The room was full of video games, VR consoles and arcade games.
"This is my games room." The raven-haired boy informed them.
"You have a room full of video games." Tea was astounded.
"Yeah." Mokuba shrugged as if having your own games room was the most natural thing in the world.
"So does your brother have a games room as well?" Ryou asked. Mokuba nodded.
"Man can you imagine Kaiba playing video games?" Tristan said.
"Oh his room doesn't have video games." The gang was told. "It has a pool table, a dart board and a bar in it."
"Sounds more like a pub then a games room." Yugi said.
It doesn't sound to bad AibouYami said through their mind link.
/But it isn't really a games room/
Well I guess Kaiba makes games so he wouldn't want to play themYami tried to reason.
/Yeah you're probably right/
When am I not?
Yugi playfully shoved Yami before running to join Mokuba in a game of 'Mortal Combat.' Smiling at his happy little hikari Yami made his way to stand against the wall next to Bakura. Yami was a bit disturbed to see that the tomb-robber was staring at Yugi.
"Is there something you wish to tell him Tomb-robber?" it was the first time he saw the white haired spirit jump.
"What?" the spirit torn his gaze away from the tri-coloured haired light.
"Well you were staring at Yugi so I supposed that there was something that you needed to tell him. So?"
"So what?" The evil spirit glared at him.
"You're hiding something."
"When am I not?"
"If it has something to do with my light I should know." Bakura looked back at Yugi and a small blush appeared. 'Did Bakura just blush?'
"It's well um..." Bakura lowered his gaze. It was then that it hit Yami.
"You like him." Yami's eyes grew wide at the nod he received. "Well I guess you should tell him." 'Stay calm, come on Yami stay calm.'
"Is that good advise coming from you?" The other spirit sneered.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Yami asked taking the defensive.
"You know exactly what I mean. You're giving me advice when you can't even tell the person you like how you feel."
"You like someone Yami?" A voice next to them asked. Looking around the two spirits found Tea. 'How can Yugi stand her? She's always well in the way.'
"Yes." Yami said tersely.
"So who is it?" Tea asked hoping that it was her. She had had a crush on the spirit from the moment he got his own body.
"I can't tell you that."
The door opening saved Yami from any more questions from the brown-haired girl. Into the room stepped the infamous Seto Kaiba. Yami could feel his heart beat quicken. 'Did his eye's linger on me or was it my imagination?'
"Mokuba, shouldn't you be in bed?" The CEO asked.
"But big brother..." The young Kaiba started.
"No buts Mokuba you need to go to bed." The tone of the older teen's voice told that that was the end of it.
"Yes Seto." Mokuba mumbled pouting. Yami looked at the young boy. How could anyone stand that pout it was almost as melting as Yugi's.
"Oh alright but only a little while ok." Seto sighed. His brother instantly perked up at that one sentence before running and hugging his brother.
/Don't they look cute like that/
Yes they doit was then that Yami noticed that Seto's bangs were sticking to his forehead. 'Is he sweating?' Yami wondered.
"Seto don't you want to stay here for a little while?" Mokuba was asking. Kaiba looked around the room before his eye's glazed over. "Big brother?" there was concern in the young Kaiba's voice.
"I can't Mokuba."
"Pleeeeeaaaaaasssssseee." Was the whining answer before that small pout was once again in place.
"Just give me half an hour alright."
"Ok."
With that the older teen left. Mokuba quickly said that he was going to get something for them to eat.
"Was it just me or is Kaiba acting a bit odd?" Tristan asked.
"Yeah he went all spaced out like Yug and Ryou do when they talk with Yami and Bakura." Joey agreed with his friend.
"But Kaiba doesn't have a yami." Ryou said.
"Well let's carry on playing." Yugi tried to lighten the mood.
Yami went over what his friends had said. Kaiba spacing out as if he were talking through a mind link but Ryou was right he didn't have anyone to mind link to. Mokuba had come back with all sorts of left over junk food. Crisps, soda, chocolate and sweets.
"Mokuba were is the bathroom?" Yami asked.
Yami walked down one of the halls in the Kaiba mansion. Ten minutes had passed since Kaiba had gone into the games room. 'Oh this is just great I'm lost' Yami thought as he stared around him. He had been on his way to the bathroom but had seemingly got himself lost in the large building. Walking a bit farther Yami found a strip of light under a door.
'This must be Kaiba's room. I'm sure he won't mind if I ask him.' Yami stood in front of the door for a while, trying to sum up the courage to go in. Deciding that it would be best if he knocked the former pharaoh raised a hand and rapped on the wood. Shuffling and some curses were heard from the other side of the door.
"Yami." Kaiba breathed leaning on the doorframe. Yami's red eyes locked with azure ones. There was an emotion in them that he couldn't really place. 'Hold on there is emotion in them.' "What do you want?"
"I just wanted to know where the bath-"Yami cut himself short when Seto's eyes glazed over. "K...Kaiba?" the former pharaoh worriedly asked.
"Huh." Yami had never seen the CEO so flustered. 'What's wrong with him?'
"Are you alright?"
"Oh he's just a bit upset about being disturbed." A voice form inside the room informed. 'That voice.' It was smooth and slightly husky. It was the same voice that had haughnted his dreams since Battle City. Yami's eyes widened as he saw a pair of tanned arms snake around the brunettes waist.
"You could use the bathroom attached to the room." The voice said. Kaiba turned his head to look at the person behind him. "Come now be somewhat civil."
Seto growled at the command but still allowed himself to be pulled to the side. Yami walked in and felt his breath catch at the sight of the smirking face behind his crush.
Yugi felt his eye lids grow heavy. He heard someone yawn next to him. "Hey guys I think we should go to bed." Yugi knew his voice sounded tired and soft.
"Mmm... I think you're right." Mokuba said. "Come on I'll show everyone their rooms."
"I need to quickly tell Yami." Yugi contacted his yami through their mind link.
/Yami we're going to bed./
.......
/Yami did you hear me?/
Yes Aibou I did. So I'll see you in the morning.
/Alright./
"Yugi." Said boy turned to look into chocolate brown eyes. "Before you go to bed can I talk to you?"
"Sure Bakura."
Ryou watched the exchange between his yami and Yugi. He knew of Bakura's feelings for the small teen as he had the same ones. He loved his yami but he knew that he also loved Yugi.
Kura, are you going to tell him?
Yes koi I am
Let me come with you. I need to tell him too
Don't you think that it will be a bit to much to tell him at once?
Well I'm coming if you want it or not.
