Raine: Why is it that every time someone mentions something sharp that everyone automatically assumes it's suicide? Although if anyone would do that it would probably be Kaiba...hmmmm... Oh well. Thanks for sticking with me!


Yugi stirred noticing that Yami was no longer there. His eyes opened and he sat upright alarmed.

"Yami?" he looked around the room frantically but calmed when he realized he could still feel their connection. ' Yami? What's going on?' he asked through their link.

' Don't worry yourself. Go back to sleep,' Yami returned. Yugi climbed out of bed and crossed the room.

' Where are you?' he asked peaking around the corner.

' You have to get up early tomorrow. You need your sleep.' Yugi looked at his watch, which read 12:26 am.

' It IS early tomorrow and I won't get much sleep without knowing what you're doing.' Yugi walked to the edge of the stairs, that's where he saw Yami, with his ear to the door separating the house from the game shop. Yugi ran down the stairs quickly. "Is someone in there?" he whispered worried. Yami jumped back at the sound of his voice.

"I thought I told you not to worry about it," he reprimanded.

"It's my house too. If something's going on I think I should know about it."

"I didn't want you to get scared."

"Scared? Why? There IS really someone in there?" Yugi's eyes widened but Yami shook his head.

"I don't think so but there is someone somewhere and I think they're looking for you. They haven't made it inside yet but they have been trying."

"Well why didn't you stop them? They could be dangerous if you wait until they get inside. Grandpa has got a lot of valuable stuff in there. You should know better then to risk anyone..." A clicking noise started up and Yami pulled him away from the door and covered his mouth but it was followed by one short tone and then dead silence. Yugi pushed his hand away. "What? You think the clock is going to try and kill me now?" Yami scowled as Yugi smiled in amusement. A loud knock sounded on the outside door and Yugi scramble behind Yami. Yami laughed.

"Well I don't think an assailant would knock," he said going to answer it. Yugi frowned but it faded quickly as he wondered who in the world would be out there this late at night. He followed Yami to the door.

"Who is it?" he called grabbing onto Yami's arm timidly. No one answered. Yami opened the door as Yugi hid behind him.

"There's no one here," Yami said.

"But you did hear the knock right?" Yugi asked.

"Yes."

"Well okay then. As long as we're clear on that." Yami looked down at him and he smiled shyly. "So, what do you think... Hey, what's that?" Yugi pointed to a letter that had been stuck to the door. Yami pulled it down.

"It's for Joey," he said reading the name on the envelope.

"Joey? Why would they leave it here? And why so late?"

"I guess we'll have to ask Joey tomorrow when he opens it." Yami took a look around outside before closing the door and locking it again.

Mokuba sighed and crawled away from the tree he was hiding under. He looked at his watch and then toward the direction of his house and sighed, realizing how tired he was. ' Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all. I just hope Seto doesn't notice that I'm gone.'

Seto sat quiet within the glass coffin, the sword thrown to the side. He crossed his arms over the edge and rested his head on his arms.

"Now, don't try anything funny while I have my eyes closed."

"Why would I want to?"

"Why would I want to..." Kaiba repeated his eyes drifting shut. Visions of Joey sleeping peacefully beside him flashed into his mind. Kaiba was overcome with his own peaceful rest just letting his thoughts wander onto other things. The touch of Joey's hand in his own, the connection they shared with each kiss, his goofy smile every time he did something stupid...

"I will be forever yours," Joey said. Kaiba turned around.

"What are you doing here?" he asked climbing out of the coffin.

"Do we have to waste our time talking? I know what you really want. You may deny it but you can't ignore your feelings forever." Kaiba stayed quiet as Joey approached him. "I know you miss me." Joey slipped his arms around Kaiba's neck and pulled him in for a kiss...

A door closing and footsteps running upstairs snapped Kaiba awake and he looked around deliriously. It took him a minute but when he remembered where he was he struggled to stand up, only to fall back down again. Both of his legs felt like jelly underneath him and he waited a few minutes for them to wake up. ' What in the world is happening to me?'
