Yugi awoke only to find that he was in bed and not his bed his father's bed he shot up instantly scared but the world started to spin making him feel like he was going to throw up again so he lay back down on the soft pillow taking in deep breaths while his mind repeated

'In through the mouth out through the nose.' His mind registered movement out of the corner of his eye and he turned his head to see who it was; it was Yami holding a bowl of something Yugi immediately started to try to get away when Yami started to come closer he still remembered that he had caused him pain earlier, he suddenly reached for his neck feeling for puncture wounds. Yami grabbed his hand

"You won't find anything," he said as he gently pulled Yugi's hand away. Yugi looked up at him with big amethyst eyes, scared, but that stopped when he started to feel dizzy and lay back down with a piteous moan

"Here eat this it'll make you feel better," Yami said holding up a spoon of tomato soup for him, Yugi just rolled over with a small groan.

"Come on, I need to get something into you if you want to feel better," Yami said moving to the other side of the bed so Yugi was facing him again. He noticed that Yugi had closed his eyes tight no doubt trying to get the sick feeling to go away Yami sighed

"Yugi, you are suffering from blood loss you have to eat or you won't feel better," Yami said with all seriousness. Yugi's eyes snapped open at that

"b-b-b-blood l-loss," he stuttered now it fit together Yami hadn't injected him with anything like he thought, he had taken something away, he had taken Yugi's blood. Yugi slowly sat up

"Dear Lord I'm going to be a vampire," he whispered worriedly to himself lifting a hand to feel his teeth. He was startled out of his thoughts by the sound of Yami chuckling

"What's so funny?" he almost shrieked worry etched all over his features

"Don't worry you aren't going to turn into a vampire," Yami said sitting the bowl in his hands on the side table and pulling Yugi in next to him. Yugi immediately tensed up when Yami pulled him in

"It's okay you aren't going to become a vampire I wouldn't do that without your permission," Yami told him smiling when Yugi looked up at him

"I'm not?" he squeaked Yami smirked

"I've been around for three thousand years do you really think I would have lasted that long if I had turned all the people I bit into vampires?" Yami said Yugi looked down

"No I guess not," he said relaxing and snuggling into Yami's side. Yami took this as a chance to feed Yugi and grabbed the bowl of soup. Yugi shakily took it from him finding it hard to keep his hands steady

"Yami help, please," Yugi said unable to hold the spoon Yami just smiled happy that he was getting time with Yugi. Yami took the spoon from Yugi and started to feed him until he told him to stop when he was done Yugi looked happier than he'd ever seen him. Yugi snuggled closer to Yami feeling tired and wanting to go to sleep for once that week Yami looked down see Yugi fast asleep against his chest. Yami started to unwrap Yugi's arms from around his waist but he just instinctively gripped tighter mumbling,

"Stay please," as he nuzzled Yami's side. Yami smiled when he heard that; it meant more time with Yugi, anyway he was feeling tired from healing Yugi and staying awake the entire day. He took off his shoes and lay down next to Yugi who snuggled up close to Yami's chest as he fell asleep.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yami and Yugi's sleep was interrupted unfortunately by a loud bang and an even louder

"YUGI, GET DOWN HERE!"Yugi shot up like he had only been laying there with his eyes closed surprising Yami awake he felt fear radiating off of Yugi he looked like a deer caught in the headlights Yami put a hand on his shoulder and Yugi jumped turning enough to face him

"Yugi what's wrong?" he asked as Yugi proceeded to latch onto him

"My dad," he whimpered

"So,"

"So! How do you think I got sick in the first place?" Yugi whispered to him

"He let you get that way?" Yugi only nodded clinging tighter as he heard the pounding of feet on the stairs. Yugi couldn't stand it his entire body was trembling it just wasn't fair he had been so comfortable with Yami. Yami suddenly got an idea of how he could save Yugi from his father; he leaned down next to his ear and whispered to him

"Yugi I'm going to bite you again try to sound like your in pain scream if you must to get the point through, but I'm not going to take anything; I'm just going to give your father a good scare when he opens the door, fall when I let go of you." he said he saw the handle on the door start to turn slowly Yami readied himself dramatically and as the door opened he opened his mouth and swooped down on Yugi's neck sinking his teeth deep into Yugi's neck.

Yugi did as he was told and gasped before letting out a small scream as his body instinctively shuddered he played the part out flawlessly for a second Yami contemplated pulling away for fear that he might really be hurting him.

Yami glanced up when he heard to door hit the wall, he smiled evilly, Yugi's father was staring at him apparently shocked out of his drunkenness Yami shifted a little allowing a small drop of blood to roll down Yugi's back the man before him watched the drop, bug eyed, Yami slowly slid his fangs out of Yugi's skin, Yugi moaned a little for added effect. He licked to two tiny puncture wounds to make them close over before he sat up Yugi had closed his eyes he was completely relaxed in Yami's grip almost asleep. Yami let go of him and lightly pushed him onto his side; he stood up and leapt with feline-like grace from the bed to in front of Yugi's father who took a step back through the doorway.

"Thank you for not interrupting my meal," he said voice silkily smooth as he wiped his lower lip of a little blood.

"Then again he wouldn't have cared so long as he got his wish before or after he died," he continued

"w-what would that have been?" the father said sounding rather stupid

"Why, for me to kill you, of course," Yami said opening his mouth like he had to bite Yugi. Yami didn't even have to do that; the man turned tail, pale as a sheet, and slammed the bedroom door in Yami's face. Yami shut his mouth before turning around to see Yugi stirring and sitting up on the bed fear no longer in his eyes

"Your father must be a very suspicious man normally it would take me actually piercing skin to get them to run and by then it's too late," Yami said walking over to the bad and sitting down next to him. Yugi was feeling his neck again where Yami had bit

"It didn't hurt too much this time," he stated wonderingly

"Why?" he asked this time looking to Yami for his answer

"you were relaxed this time the first time I bit you, you tried to struggle and your muscles were all tensed up, now lets get some sleep I'm beat and you must be too with all the nightmares you've been having," Yami said yawning and laying down Yugi followed him smiling as he curled up against Yami's body when the thought occurred to him

"Yami, how do you know about my nightmares?" Yami, half asleep and not quite willing to think, answered

"I've been watching for you at night for a while," he said as he blinked his eyes open again he reached into his pocket and brought out a small contacts holder he slowly removed his contacts from his eyes and everything went extremely blurry.

"Why didn't you help me then?" Yugi asked as he watched Yami take out his contacts revealing that his true eye color was amethyst like his instead of ruby red

"Seto told me not to," Yami said, facing Yugi even though he couldn't see him. Yugi suddenly threw himself at him crying lightly

"Then why did you help me this time?" he cried as Yami comfortingly wrapped his arms around him

"I-I wanted to spend more time with you I didn't realize you had gotten that bad," he said blinking blindly as he pulled Yugi towards him.

"I promise I won't let him hurt you again," Yami told Yugi rubbing his back in soothing circles. Yugi finally calmed down and Yami lay back down with him

"I'll stay with you Yugi and I don't care what Seto says," he told him before falling back to sleep Yugi snuggled in his arms.
