~*~Love On Ice~*~



Yugi woke up around 8am, and noticed that Yami was lying next to him, and at some point during the night had wrapped his arms around the smaller. Yugi blushed slightly at the position they were in, but couldn't do anything about it so just leaned into the embrace.

He managed to fall back to sleep. An hour later it was Yami's turn to wake up, he groggily opened his eyes, wondering where he was. Then he caught sight of Yugi who was lying in his arms, his golden bangs were slightly covering his face and he was sleeping peacefully.

Yami lay watching the kawaii scene for a while until the small boy began to frown in his sleep. "Mnn...go away...no...please don't hurt me..." Yami gently shook Yugi, attempting to rid the smaller boy of his nightmares.

"Yugi. Yugi wake up hikari." But Yugi could not hear Yami; he was terrified by his dream, or rather, nightmare.

~*~Dream sequence~*~

He had being cornered by Ushio, the biggest bully n the school. They were in a dark alley, it was very late and very dark and there was no one around. Yugi sat shivering in the corner as Ushio moved closer with a sadistic smirk on his face.

He stopped only when he was towering over the small shivering bundle that was Yugi. "Go away. Please don't hurt me. Just leave me alone." Ushio just laughed.

"Why would I leave? I thought we were having so much fun! I'm insulted." Ushio raised his fist. "Yami will come and save me, I know he will. Then you'll be sorry!"

"Not a chance, Yami doesn't care about you, he just thinks you're a pathetic weakling who he has to protect all of the time." Yugi began to cry, crystalline tears trailing down his pale cheeks.

"You're wrong. Yami will come, he'll save me. He'll come for me." Ushio lifted Yugi to his feet and held him tightly.

"Not likely. Don't you get it? Yami isn't coming. If anyone was going to save you, they would have done it by now."

Yugi let the tears flow down his cheeks. 'But Yami said he loved me...last night...'

~*~End of dream~*~

"Yugi, please wake up!" Yami was getting desperate, the small boy was turning violently in his bed and was screaming out. In a last attempt to get his hikari to calm down Yami went against his better judgement. I just hope Yugi won't hate me...

Yami pulled his hikari close and captured his lips in his own. Yugi tasted exactly how Yami had imagined, so sweet. He reluctantly pulled away, but the kiss had provided the desired affect; Yugi was now awake, his violet eyes wide.

However Yami couldn't meet his eyes, he looked about, anywhere but Yugi. "I-I'm sorry aibou. I'll leave-" He went to get up but felt something tug at his sleeve. Looking down he saw Yugi staring up at him.

"Please don't leave; I want to know...why did you do that. Was it because I was having a bad dream, or do you really love me?"

Yami looked deeply into the bright amethyst orbs. "Yugi, I love you. I really do. I just hope that you aren't upset with me. Please, say something." There was long pause in which Yami felt certain of rejection until he heard the tenshi's sweet voice.

"Could you kiss me again? I liked it."
