I'm just a writer pretending to own these characters. But, really, I don't own them or their show.
"It's snowing!" Joey rubbed his eyes and climbed out of the warmth of his bed. It was a little after early morning, and he just wanted a little more sleep before he had to be up for school. "JOEY!"
He blinked as he finally made it to his window and peered out it. He lifted it up, leaned out, and yelled down, "What?"
Yugi stood under his window, his smile wide and bright. "It's a snow day, Joey! My grandpa saw it on the news. SNOW!"
Joey laughed. Yugi always acted like this when it snowed. "Came early this year, didn't it?" Yugi nodded. "I'll be dressed in five minutes." Joey leaned back in the house and closed his window.
Five minutes later, Joey walked out of his house and---
"Hehehehehe!"
--Got hit in the face by a well-aimed snowball.
"Yugi!" Joey stooped down and packed a ball of his own.
"You're not going to get me!"
Joey stood up, aimed, and fired all in one motion. However, he'd forgotten that Yugi's not as tall as most people, and the shot hit him straight in the hair.
Yugi brushed off the snow. He laughed, "Told you!", and hurled another snowball at him.
He barely dodged it and weaved around Yugi. "You've been preparing," he commented once he saw the stacks of snowballs.
"You took forever!" Yugi reasoned.
"Did not!" Joey picked up on of Yugi's, much to his dismay, and threw it at him. Since they were so close, it was basically point-blank, the snowball found its target of Yugi's chest very quickly
"Hey! That's cheating!" He darted away, which was smart, since Yugi grabbed an armful and starting hurling them in his general direction.
"Is not! You're the one cheating!" He shouted back. He dove to the ground, rolled for a split second, and stood up behind Yugi. "Now," he said, wrapping his arms around the smaller boy, "What do you say to a truce? Disband your weapons store and maybe we won't bomb you with ours."
"Not funny, Joey. I want to get back to the game." Yugi said, even as he leaned into the embrace.
"Oh, we have plenty of time for games. But I think we should head back to our house first."
Yugi smirked. "Oh, so now it's our house?"
Joey blushed and let go of him. "Nah, nah, it's just that I...I spend so much time over there it feels like a second home."
He laughed at Joey's slip and smiled. "Sure, but I think Yami's coming over today." Joey understood how much that meant to Yugi, since Yami had moved out almost as soon as he'd gotten his own form.
"We can set up an ambush for him."
They both burst out laughing.
"Let's go, then!" Yugi scooped up as many snowballs as he could carry, Joey doing the same, and the couple started walking down the snowy path to Yugi's house. "Race ya!" ...Okay, started running down the snowy path to Yugi's house.
The moral of the story? On a snow day, always check first to see if your hikari has been up for five hours with his boyfriend building a stash of snowballs to attack you with. Yami has learned this lesson well, I'm sure.
