Thank you all reviewers I hope I didn't miss anyone. D;
Longest on going story chapter wise. D: I am so happy I have gotten this far. Okay another thing, if you care xD, a while back I said I wasn't going too use last names because it was confusing, but then I guess I forgot about that and in the last chapter I said Bakura was Ryou's last name and I use that here too so... Meh... I am defiantly having blond moments.
(1) Kehehehe ((Imitation of an evil laugh)) I am so cruel. D':
"What do you mean Yami?" Yugi asked his heart rate increasing, as he stared wide eyed.
"Well I would think the statement alone would explain itself." Yami answered relaxing a bit when the initial shock hadn't caused an outburst of any kind.
"... What are you then?" Yugi asked his hands clenching the edge of the chair in anticipation of the answer.
"What do you think I am?" Yami asked smirking secretly from the other side of the chess table.
"I don't really know. I mean I've never met anyone non human before, the only things that come to mind are Vampire, Werewolf, or maybe a God of some kind. I mean you have the aura for it..." Yugi rambled trying to force down his fears. He had a feeling that Yami's confession was in no way a lie and it scared him a little that he felt so inferior.
"Well it is one of those." Yami smiled and Yugi nervously fidgeted in his seat.
"Are you going to make me guess?" Yugi asked in a soft voice, his vocal cords feeling strangely weak.
"Would you rather me show you?" Yami asked curiously. Yugi's eyes went wide at that thought, any of the three could result in something bad.
"Are you going to kill me?" Yugi finally blurted out tears gathering in the corners of his eyes. Every muscle in his body tensed ready for a fight, though he knew he'd never win. Especially if Yami was actually a supernatural being.
"What! Of course not." Yami sputtered out his own eyes widening at the realization that, Yugi was possibly terrified of him.
"Oh..." Yugi sighed in relief and slumped in his chair. His arms, legs, and neck felt sore now. He was still scared, but in a way he also trusted Yami, in that he wouldn't kill him.
"I hope I didn't give you that impression." Yami frowned wondering what he could have done to make Yugi think he would hurt him in any way.
"Oh no! It's just that I have a big imagination and the bad stuff usually comes to mind first." Yugi said quickly. His face red with a blush of embarrassment.
"I remember from the first time I met you." Yami chuckled at the remembrance.
"So... what are you?" Yugi asked looking at Yami with an oddly, wide trusting gaze.
"Hmm I suppose I'm a..." He started, but was interrupted by a knock on the door. (1) "Yes?" He called annoyed that once more while talking to Yugi he had been disrupted.
Shadi walked inside his head bowed in modest respect. "I'm sorry, but this is important." Shadi said straightening. Standing still within the doorway.
"Go on." Yami ushered sitting a little straighter in his chair. Yugi paid close attention, he smiled when Shadi's eyes flickered over to him. Yugi wondered if he was silently asking Yami if it was okay to say this here, but when Yami didn't say anything he dismissed the idea.
"Bakura, Malik and Marik are taking the new one to Kaiba's mansion tomorrow around the afternoon." Shadi continued.
"Hmm interesting." Yami rubbed his chin in thought, and turned to Yugi who was looking a little startled. "What is it Yugi?"
"Huh? Oh nothing it's just... Ryou's last name is Bakura I was a little confused when I heard his name, but I really don't think anyone calls him that besides the teacher, and I don't think you are talking about the same one..." Yugi paused shaking his head when he, himself, got confused.
Yami digested that information for a moment, then smiled at Yugi and reassured him that it wasn't the same person.
"Would you like to move tomorrow My Pharaoh?" Shadi asked speaking as if nothing had just been said, in-between their conversation.
"I think yes. That would be the best opportunity to make our move." Yami said staring at his palms as he thought on it. "Very well thank you Shadi. Is that all?"
"Yes. I will make the preparations." Shadi replied, he stopped before he left the room entirely. "What about him?" He asked pointing at a startled Yugi. Who had found many things interesting in the conversation, but knew not what was going on, so he had started to drift off in his own thoughts.
"He... will come with." Yami said. Shadi rose an eyebrow at this, but knew better then to ask what Yami's intentions where. He left with a rustle of cloth, shutting the door behind him.
"Yami where am I going? Am I not supposed to go home?" Yugi asked feeling a little fearful again. Suddenly his stomach was twisting in nervous fear.
"I'll be taking you home afterwards, but this way you can find out what I am and maybe if I don't scare you off..." Yami trailed off. He had a feeling with Yugi's innocence shining through his eyes that doing this, right in front of him, might traumatize him, and would, in the end, chase him off screaming in fear.
"Don't worry Yami I haven't run off yet, and I really do want to know what you are." Yugi said bringing his knees up to his chest, he yawned chibi like into his legs.
"We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow. How about we go back to my room, and get some sleep." Yami suggested with a smile.
"Really? I mean you wouldn't mind me sleeping in the same bed again?" Yugi asked a little surprised. Even after that kissed they had shared, he wasn't sure if Yami would allow him to be closer. And Yugi did like sleeping next to someone.
"Yes now come on." Yami stood up and took Yugi's hand in his, their fingers clasped together, as they went to the bedroom. Twin smiles radiated from their faces.
When they made it there, the first thing Yugi did was run and jump into the covers. His body practically molded into the soft rumples of cloth and silk. Yami slowly caught up to him and stood at the edge watching Yugi squirm under the covers trying to get his legs into the cocoon.
"What are you doing?" Yami asked his voice filled with amusement.
"M'in ooh hine a mferbl hohitin." Yugi said muffled by the mass of blankets on him. It only fueled Yami's smile more.
"What?" He asked. An exasperated sigh made it's way to Yami's ears, then Yugi was scuttling back out of the blankets.
"I said I'm trying too find a comfortable position, but there's no use now." He pouted and laid back.
Yami smirked and held his tongue from saying what he wanted to say, he just stood there staring at Yugi who was still only in boxers that where nicely revealing to his large expanse of skin.
Yugi blushed bright red noticing the eyes on him and sat up. He smiled shyly at Yami then scooted over so Yami could lay down. Yami went back to the door and shut the lights off. He slowly removed his clothing down to his own underwear. When he returned to the bed, Yugi was curled up into a ball only his eyes showing over the layer of blankets.
"Goodnight Yugi." Yami said laying under the blankets himself, he felt Yugi's warm skin so close to his own and closed his eyes.
"Night Yami." Yugi said softly as he unconsciously moved closer to Yami and curled against him. Yami smiled down at him and put his arms around Yugi's shoulders.
"Ryou you got soap in my eyes." Bakura grumbled trying to scrub his body, and rub his eyes free of the offending stuff at the same time.
"Sorry." Ryou giggled cutely and attempted to help.
"Bah! Stop it, you're only turning me on again." Bakura yelped when a wandering hand brushed against him.
"Oh... Sorry!" Ryou blushed and backed up a little.
"Nnn that's not a bad thing you dork, unless you don't want to walk tomorrow. You did say I was your first right?" Bakura asked letting the water wash away the bubbles.
"Yeah." Ryou said smiling happily.
"Well then I don't want to start off too strong, or I won't get any for a week, or two." He frowned at the thought. "And I really don't want to go to Marik, or Malik now that I have you." He smirked at that and pulled a blushing Ryou to him, and kissed his bruised lips as gently as he could. Being Bakura and all.
"You still have shampoo in your hair." Ryou chuckled when they pulled apart, and helped to wash that away.
"Are we clean now, can I sleep?" Bakura nearly whined.
"I guess we're about as clean as can be." Ryou said turning the water off.
"Good." Bakura cheered and grabbed the fluffy towels off the toilet. He handed one to Ryou and quickly dried himself off. "Sleep. My third favorite thing too do."
"Oh and what are the first two?" Ryou asked wrapping the towel around his waist.
"Sex is number one, and eating is the second." Bakura answered smugly.
"I should have known. How? I don't know, but I should have." Ryou giggled. Then squealed when Bakura picked him up and practically ran them both into the bedroom. He plopped Ryou down on the bed and crawled in after him.
"Gah! Warn a guy next time."
"Why I love seeing your reactions." Bakura grinned evilly, and allowed Ryou to snuggle up to him.
"Hey... Bakura..." Ryou started his arms lazily draped over the others body.
"Hmm?"
"I'm hungry..." Ryou winced as his stomach gurgled in agreement. He had been trying to put it off as long as possible, but it was starting to really hurt.
"Oh... I didn't even realize it, but it's been about a day since you ate last hasn't it?" Ryou nodded against his shoulder.
"Don't worry Ryou, you'll get used to it after a while." Bakura frowned and kissed his forehead.
"Are you sure?" Ryou asked his still worried.
"Positive." He sat up bringing Ryou with him. "Just throw these on and we'll get you something, then we can sleep and deal with tomorrow." Bakura threw a pair of black sweats at him and slipped on a white pair himself.
When they entered the kitchen Ryou sat at the table, and Bakura went to the fridge. He grabbed out something, and didn't let Ryou see it. Thinking it best for a while. He filled two cups and put the container back.
"Here. It's better warm, but it's late so..." He handed one of the cups to Ryou, and downed his own. Licking his blood mustache off, he turned too see Ryou hadn't touched his, and was staring at it with disgust.
"Just plug your nose and drink, otherwise you'll be hurting real bad later." Bakura said trying to be gentle.
Ryou nodded and did just that, a second later he put the cup down with a clunk and coughed a few times. "Bleh I don't think I'll ever get used to that." He said his nose scrunched in distaste.
"You will after a couple of weeks." Bakura said grinning.
"Oh you're up... And half nakie! Malik come quick!" Marik yelled his face bright with glee.
Ryou blushed bright red and wiped his face, hoping it wasn't streaked in blood.
Malik joined them, groggily, a moment later and nearly laughed at the sight of them. "Wow your both matching sort of. Light on dark, and dark on light." Marik blinked then noticed the odd arrangement and giggled.
"You're so cute all blushing, and shirtless!" Marik cooed, glomping Ryou to his chair.
"Um thank you?" Ryou blushed redder, and awkwardly hugged back.
"No molesting him." Bakura said smirking himself.
"Oh I have good news!" Marik said, reluctantly letting Ryou go to stand.
"And what is that?" Bakura asked sitting down in the chair next to Ryou, who had composed himself in record time.
"We are going to Seto's later on tomorrow... Unless tomorrow is already today." He looked around for a clock and didn't see one.
"Wouldn't doubt it. Why are we going, and what about Mokuba the psycho wonder?" Bakura asked.
"Well Ryou was talking too me the other night and said he wanted to learn more, and since Seto does have some books on it I decided that would be perfect. And he sounds really curious too meet Ryou here. And I dunno I don't think Mokie will hurt him." Marik said, practically blurring the words together, a big grin plastered on his face.
Ryou blinked. "Well if we have plans it would be a good idea to be rested. Don't you think Bakura?" He smiled at the dazed looking man.
"Hmm... Oh yeah well see you later then. Don't do anything I wouldn't." Bakura said roughly taking Ryou's hand in his, he led him to the bedroom and shut the door.
Ryou yawned next too him and he nearly tackled the cuteness of the situation. "Come on." He pulled him over to the bed, for hopefully the last time that night, and sprawled out next too him. Their fingers still joined they fell asleep facing each other.
"We should go home now. No use in sleeping on the couch all night." Seto said, looking at his watch it read nearly 4 am.
"Okay..." Jou mumbled, his excitement from earlier worn off, leaving him with only fatigue.
Seto stood up uneasily on his legs and stretched Jou joined him a moment later. When he called down for his limo someone immediately answered and said it would be ready when he got down there.
"Lets go pup." Seto grabbed his arm gently, and tugged him toward the door. Jou pouted at the nickname, but was too tired to fight it at the moment.
"Bully." He muttered. Seto gave him a fleeting smile and they both lapsed into a comfortable silence.
"It's a really small world you know." Jou said when they where in the car, several minutes into the ride home. Seto decided not to answer.
"I mean I never would have thought I would be meeting Ryou under these circumstances, and he's not human anymore... I wonder how that came about... Who is this, I think you said his name was, Bakura? Is he nice? Because Ryou's kind of a softer type of kid, and he's really not into the violence... Oh I wonder how he's taking the whole blood thingy." Jou rambled flinching at the thought.
"Bakura... Is an interesting character." Seto said amused by the speed in which Jou could talk.
"Interesting? That's what people say when they don't want to reveal too much." Jou glared a little.
"Well if I tell you what he's like from what I know, then you might have a heart attack."
"Oh no I hope Ryou's okay." Jou frowned and furrowed his brow.
"I'm sure he's fine. Marik said he was a sweet kid and that he wanted to learn. I'm assuming that will make you feel better."
"Hm, yeah I guess at least it sounds like it." Jou smiled a little relieved and sat against Seto's side.
"Good." Seto petted his head, and avoided Jou's attempt to smack his hand away.
They arrived at the mansion not too much later and dragged their way too Seto's room. Jou looked a little more alert going through the long dark hallways and clung too Seto a little more, but they made it too his room without anything drastic happening.
As Jou was changing into his pajamas, Seto slid into the cool crisp sheets.
"I hope your full because I don't think I have anymore blood too give you." Jou said slipping in next to him, he curled up to his chest and sighed contentedly.
"Don't worry I should be good till later in the morning." Seto said wrapping his arms around him.
"Oh... Well then I'll just make as many cells as I can tonight." Jou yawned and shifted into a more comfortable position.
"You do that." Seto blinked and drifted off into sleep, Jou's gentle aroma filling his senses.
