Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or the song You Raise Me Up or Angels.
At around six o clock, Yugi came over. Tea opened the door and invited him in.
"Hey Yugi, what's up? I tried to call you earlier but…..Yugi! Are you ok?!" Tea asked, horrified. Yugi had turned as white as a sheet and his breathing had gone rapid!
"Yugi! YUGI! BREATHE!" Tea said to him, shaking his shoulders. Yugi took a deep breath, and his skin turned normal color. He put a hand over his frantically beating heart.
"Sorry, Tea," he apologized. "I do that a lot when I'm really nervous." Tea raised an eyebrow.
"Yugi." She said slowly, "Are you nervous because you're singing for me?" Yugi nodded.
"So…" Tea said, thinking aloud, "do you want to go up to my room, or do you want to stay here?" Yugi looked around. Tea's parents were in the living room.
"Let's go up to your room."

Yugi had never seen Tea's bedroom. When he got there, it was more than he had expected. It wasn't like Serenity's room, where everything was pink, or Mai's, where everything was celebrity-related. It was kind of a mixture of both.
"So….I have some karaoke CDs. And I know the perfect song for you to sing." Yugi nodded, not really saying anything. Tea put the CD into her CD player and a violin began to play. Yugi immediately recognized the song.
"Tea!"
Tea turned off the CD. She looked at him questioningly.
"I'm just…..not ready." Tea nodded and smiled. Yugi waited a couple minutes, than said to her:
"Ok…..I'm ready." Tea pressed the play button. When it was time to sing, Yugi sang:
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Tea could've sworn her heart stopped. Yugi…his voice…it was so beautiful! It was like the voice of Josh Groban. It made her mouth drop open when he hit the high notes.
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be
For the rest of the song, Tea just listened. She didn't want to think or talk. He just wanted to listen.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
When Yugi finished the song, Tea immediately stood up and gave him a huge hug.
"Oh my goodness, Yugi! Your voice is AMAZING. And the pitch was perfect and everything…..OH MY GOSH YOU WERE JUST SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Tea hugged him harder.
"Tea…I…can't….breathe…" Yugi managed to squeak out. Tea immediately let go of him.
"Sorry…" Yugi grinned. He walked over to Tea's CD player.
"Tea…now that I have sung for you…..you have to sing for me." Tea's ocean blue eyes widened.
"W-W-What? Forget it. I-I can't sing! I'm tone deaf!" Yugi smiled.
"Even better." And with that he turned on the CD player. Growing even more nervous now, Tea recognized the song as Angels by Within Temptation. Slowly, she began to sing:
Sparkling angel I believe
You were my savior in my time of need.
Suddenly, the strangest thing happened. It was though all of Tea's fear was washed away by a big wave. Smiling now, she kept singing.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
All the whispers, the warnings so clear.
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.
There's no escape now,
No mercy no more.
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
This world may have failed you,
It doesn't give you reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
And with that, the song ended. Yugi got up, and hugged her.
"Wow, Tea. I never knew you had such a great voice." Tea smiled, and held him out at arm's length.
"You do too, you know." She suddenly realized that she and Yugi's hands were clasped together. Yugi must've seen this, too, because he dropped their grip. There was an awkward silence, until Tea's mother came in the room and told Yugi his ride was here.
