BrightstarKnight: Sorry everyone. I've been so busy since the hurricanes and school was cramped because we missed so many days and etc. Anyway.......sorry for leaving you people hanging for so long-- here's chapter 3!

Chapter # 3: Facing Pregnancy

Kenueal disappeared from the room leaving the confused parents to be, Moukba (who arrived just the second after Kenueal vanished) shot threw the living cheering that he thought the others would be here and then asked his big brother what did Kenueal say. When Seto told Moukba he got a reaction that he never saw coming.

"This is great!" cheered Moukba. You're going to have a baby Seto! Isn't wonderful? I'm going to be an uncle!" Seto just looked at Moukba wondering if he had completely lost his mind. How on earth was he going to even deliver this child anyhow?

"Come on Moukba, let's go home", Seto sighed finally as he exited the room. "GREAT!" yelled Moukba as he followed his brother. "We got soooo much to do and to talk about! Like what to name the baby, what sex is it-- is it too early to tell? Fixing up a nursery-"

"Moukba Please!" Seto groaned as they left the game shop.

"Boy, Moukba seems to be really looking forward to this", Tristan mumbled as head for the door himself. "I guess so", Duke complained darkly as he followed. "He's not the one up the duff."

"We'll be heading home too Yugi", Ryou called as he dragged his half conscious Yami out the door. "Good-bye, see yah at school."

"Bye Ryou", called Yugi sitting down beside Yami on the brown loveseat and placing his face in his hands. Yami meanwhile was watching Joey who seemed to take the news pretty bad. His face looked unnaturally pale and his eyes were cloudy. "Are you alright Joseph?" Yami asked with his voice full of concern.

Joey shooked his blond hair, not really thankful for being brought back to reality.

Fine Yami, just fine. Um... I'm going home to think this through, I'll call tonight"

"Alright, Bye Joey"

Joey returned a weak bye as he left the game shop. Yami and Yugi sat there in silence for almost 20 minutes before Yugi piped up and suggested dinner since it was 4:47 in the afternoon.

As Yugi headed to the kitchen to start dinner, Yami stopped on the way to the bathroom. When he was at the mirror, Yami lifted his shirt looking at his stomach. He sighed in despair ashe saw a little swell of like a tiny ball in the lower part of his stomach; right bellow the belly button. He thought he was just gaining a little bit of weight from all the double cheese burgers he'd been eating.

"Man Joey seemed down", called Yugi from the kitchen. "It was so weird. He's usually the one who keep's our spirits up...Everything's just somewhat depressing."

"Well our situation is depressing", Yami answered back lowering his shirt and walking out the bathroom with his pants unbuttoned. "What are we going to do? We're both 16 and 17 years old, unwed, practically unemployed and-"

Yugi placed a finger on Yami's lips as he walked into the kitchen. "Shhhh. Peace Yami. Let's eat our chicken parmesan, play a round of video games, catch a small nap and then we can think about it later."

Yami nodded and began to help by fixing the noodles. But even though he didn't show it, his mind was on the unborn children him and Yugi were carrying--'By Ra why did his life have to be this path?'


"Hey sport!" called Mr. Wheeler as Joey entered into the apartment. "Hey pops" Joey mumbled back as he sat down in his favoritegreen recliner. "So how did that tea work? Your Stomach's flu gon'?" asked Mr. Wheeler as he continued to get ready to go to work.

He was taking a double shift so he and Joey can spend a week at Universal and Islands of Adventures theme park. "I'm feelin' a little better dad" Joey replied dully.

"Great!"

Mr. Wheeler then came to the living to get his gray jacket when he saw how tired Joey looked. "Sport?" he asked, his voice dripping with worry. "You sure your okay?"

"I fine pops" Joey lied trying to work up false emotion. "I'm just tried from all the walkin' and stuff" To his relief his bluff worked. Putting on his coat Mr. Wheeler smiled again. "All right, just get some bed rest boy. And $20 dollars is on the counter for pizza so don't be calling me on my cell sayin', 'what's for dinner pops?! I'm wasting away here!' again okay?" Laughed the man as he zipped up his jacket half way and slapped his son's back gentler than usual because of his sickly state.

Joey couldn't help but smile at his dad. He was a great guy, a hard, but a sweet old guy. He use to have a drinking problem before his ma left, but now he never touches the stuff. "See yah dad" called Joey as his father was walking out the door. "Later Joe" Mr. Wheeler called back as he shut the door behind him.

5 minutes later,Joeygot up to order the pizza. "All right sir it will be delivered in 30 minutes." Joey thanked the lady and hung up the phone. Returning to his green recliner he began to ponder what to do. 'Spending money at Island of Adventures?' he thought bitterly. 'I should be saving that money for the baby.'

Reclining the chair back he thought about how his pops was going to react to his pregnancy, how would his family react, is he going to finish high school, what would people think when they see his round gut.

'I hate my life'


"There's no way in fucking hell that I'm giving birth to this kid!!!!" Bakura roared. After regaining full consciousness bout the time him and Ryou were home. Ryou remained his ground through the entire vile outburst. He just shook his head, "I know it's difficult but-"

"But, shit Ryou!!!"

"But don't you want a beautiful baby to call your own?"

"I hate children!!!! Bakura screamed to the top of his lungs. Ryou squeaked but didn't say anything but close the blinds to the windows nearby. People we're already trying to spy in and they been arguing for only five minutes. "Please calm down Bakura. The neighbors are getting suspicious"

"I don't give a shit!! If they try anything I'll send those fools straight to the shadow realm!!!"

"Anything? You have already sent Miss. Acken's cat to the shadow realm for no good reason at all!"

"The stupid fur ball was crawling on my window seal at 3:00 o' clock in the morning and I brought him back when I was fully rested."

Ryou dropped his jaw in disbelief. "The cat was in the shadow realm for a whole 4 stinking months! And I'm surprised he's still in one piece!"

"At least I remembered to summon him back to earth. I hardy do that for anyone you know" Bakura replied simply sitting on the couch in the living room and folding his arms.

"Anyway I kinda like the idea that I'm going to have baby. Women were the only ones who could babies and now we get to experience how it feels. I think it'sprecious to carry a little life inside of you, isn't wonderful? I'm actually starting to look forward to having my baby."

Bakura grunted in disbelief and stared up toward the ceiling. "I KNOW I'M EVIL BUT NOBOBDY AND I REPEAT NOBODY DESEVRES SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!!!!"


No Yugi, you are not dropping out of school. You need an education abiou; It was important in my days and its still--or even more important now", Yami argued back sternly and crossed his arms over his chest. Yugi growled in frustration. "I can't go to school looking like I swallowed a basket ball!"

Yami snorted angrily. "We're practically not even showing yet so we're both still going until we can't fit into our school uniforms anymore, is that clear?!"

Yugi didn't say anything but began to cry. "I'm not crying because of you---I just don't feel right". Yugi sniffed quietly and then without warning brusted into tears wailing. Yami was dumbfounded; he never saw Yugi act like that. "Abiou--"

"WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!Big meanie!" Yugi cried, running to his bedroom. "Yugi!" Yami yelled as he ran after him while questioning his own insanement. Right before he reached Yugi's bedroom, a sharp pain pressing his pelvis; he had to go--bad.'Damn these pregnancy, damn it',he curse mentally dashed for the bathroom.
