Chapter 2! I have no idea how long this will be, but I'm just gonna go with it. XD Enjoy! I don't own YuGiOh.

Yami groaned, banging his head into the wall repeatedly. How could one kid be such a pain? Yami had woken up that morning to find that Yugi had, apparently, woken up during the night. Bored, the boy had destroyed the house...again. Yami wondered how the boy's mother and grandfather could afford to keep this kid in the first place.

"Yami?" Yugi's eyes were filled with concern. "Are you okay, Yami?"

"I just want to know why. Why did you have to paint on the walls? Why did you throw food all over the kitchen floor again? And why oh why did you try to make macaroni and cheese by yourself in the middle of the night?"

Yugi smiled sheepishly. "I was bored. I was hungry. And my mom always makes it look so easy to make macaroni and cheese. She never caught the house on fire before."

Yami sighed and shook his head. "You're just lucky I found that fire extinguisher under the sink. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a house anymore."

"Sorry, Yami. I won't do it again."

"Uh-huh, keep saying that, kid," Yami muttered, not buying a word the kid was saying. They were sitting in the kitchen, which had been on fire moments ago. Yami had smelled smoke and, upon running into the kitchen, he found that Yugi had set fire to the kitchen counter. Luckily, Yami found a fire extinguisher under the sink and put the fire out before too much damage had been done. However, the Mutous would be needing a new counter. And Yami might be suing them for damages involved with taking care of this insane child. In fact, the Mutous would be lucky if he didn't sue.

Feeling a need to distance himself from Yugi's house-destroying, Yami decided to open the game shop. He may not have been authorized to run the shop, but maybe a mother would walk in if he was lucky. Then he could pass the babysitting job on to her, or at least ask for some help. So he grabbed Yugi and took him into the shop.

"You're not supposed to do that," Yugi said when Yami turned the sign on the door, inviting the world to come in.

"Just helping you're family. They aren't making any money this way, after all." Under his breath, Yami added, "And they'll need it with you around."

Yami actually found he rather enjoyed running the game shop. Yugi was well-behaved because he was distracted by the games in the shop, and there weren't a lot of customers. So far, this day wasn't too disastrous, aside from the kitchen fire that morning.

Then, as usual, the unwanted crept into Yami's day. All good things must come to an end.

Yami was watching Yugi fiddle around with some action figure that was sitting on the shelf when he heard the door open. He turned to greet the customer and froze. There she was, the biggest pain of Yami's life: Mana. And she had a friend with her. A taller girl with short brown hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a green and yellow checkered dress. Yami knew her: Anzu Mazaki. She was in his class at Domino High School. What was she doing with Mana?

"Yami! Hey, so this is where you've been the last few days. I was wondering." Mana looked at Yugi over in the corner. "And there's little Yugi-chan!" Yugi dropped what he was doing and ran to greet her.

"Mana!" he said with a smile. "What are you doing here?"

Mana laughed, picking up the little boy. "Just checking out what's here. Oh, Yugi, this is my friend Anzu."

Anzu smiled at Yugi, who waved at her with a huge grin on his face.

Yami cleared his throat and said, "Is there something I can help you with, girls?" He was really struggling to stay polite. This was the third day in a row Mana had managed to find him. She had to be stalking him—why else would she always be wherever he was?

"Nah, like I said, we're just looking," Mana said.

"Okay," said Yami. "Then get out."

Mana blinked. "Is this how you treat all customers?" she asked with a grin.

"Don't make me call the police, Mana. Because I will if I have to. Now get out."

Anzu laughed nervously. "Yami, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing. I just know that the only reason you two are here is because Mana's stalking me! She's probably just friends with you so that she can find out more about me."

Anzu put her hands on her hips. "Full of ourselves today, aren't we?" she asked.

"I'm serious!" Yami exclaimed, pounding his fist on the counter. "I've seen her three days in a row, in places I don't usually go, and I doubt that's a coincidence, Anzu!"

Anzu just shook her head. Mana stared at Yami a moment before speaking. "I'm not stalking you. We're neighbors, and you weren't far from home when I saw you the other day."

"What about yesterday?" Yami demanded.

"That was just a coincidence, but today it's because Anzu lives nearby, and I met her at her house."

"And why did you do that? It gives you a bit of distance to travel. Did you plan to hang out around here? And do you seriously expect me to believe that you're 'just looking'? Get out!"

Eyes full of tears, Mana put Yugi down and looked at Yami. "Fine," she said. "I'll go. Don't worry. I won't bother you anymore." She ran out of the shop, crying. Anzu glared at Yami before following her out. Yugi pouted, looking at Yami.

"What did you do that for?" he asked. "You're going to regret that someday."

One look at Yugi, and Yami already regretted it. Something told him that this kid wouldn't forgive him anytime soon for making Mana cry. This babysitting thing was about to get a lot harder—if that was even possible.
