Alright this is my remake of chapter 7 for Hikari on Tenshi. Yugi: Taylor does not own Yu-Gi-Oh
Chapter 7
House Mates
Seven year old Yugi and nine year old Atemu ran around the yard laughing and having fun. It had been two years since Atemu and Yugi had run away from their lives with Yami and the others. Both missed their friends and father figure a lot, but always reminded themselves that if they went back they may never see each again. So they would just have to hang out. Yami still sent money every so often which Atemu and yugi would use to go into town and buy food and some other things.
"Hey Yugi it getting late why don't we go make dinner?" Atemu asked trying to catch his breathe. He didn't remember being this hyper when he was seven.
"Ok 'Temu," Yugi said happily. Two walked inside and Yugi went to go take a shower while Atemu cooked dinner. Once Yugi was out and dry the two boys sat down and ate dinner. They hadn't be eating long when a knock came to the door. Atemu jumped down and went to the door and opened it. Standing their were two kids. One was about Atemu's age. She had blonde hair and blue eyes. Her eyes was tanned which really brought out her eyes. She was wearing a pink tank top and jeans with black and pink tennishoes. The boy look older, maybe thirteen or fourteen. He also had blonde hair, but his eyes were honey brown. He was wearing a white t-shirt with a green jacket over it and blue jeans with a pair of tennishoes.
"Hey kid weres ya parents?" The older boy asked.
"We don't live with are parents, its just us," Atemu answered. The boy raised an eye brown when Yugi came running up to the doorway.
"'Tem who are day?" Yugi asked grabbing Yugi's arm.
"My names Michelle, and this is my older brother Joey," The girl said pointing to herself and the boy as she said the names.
"Hi ya, we where just eating dinner why don't you two come and join us!" Yugi chirped. Joey and Michelle smiled and nodded to each other. So the four went back inside and ate. Atemu and Yugi got to know Joey and Michelle and vis versa. Then Yugi and Atemu learned that the two siblings didn't have any where to go.
"Then stay here with me and Yugi," Atemu said, "the house is really big for just the two of us, so theres plenty of room." Yugi nodded happily. Joey and Michelle looked between each other and nodded. Yugi hopped from the table and walked down the hall. Where he stopped two door appeared one was pink and the other green. Joey got up and walked to the green door and opened it. It looked just like Yugi and Atemu's room, only it was green and forrest green.
"I so get dis room," Joey said walking into the room. Michelle followed her brother and walked into the pink room. The colors were pink and purple. Michelle squealed and ran into the room. She plopped down on the bed and curled up before falling asleep. Joey chuckled before going up to his sister and tucking her in before kissing her on the forehead and leaving. Atemu, Yugi, and Joey all stood out in the hallway.
"Well me and my sis had a long day, do ya want me ta help with dishes before I hit the sack?" Atemu shook his head.
"No, me and Yugi can get it, you go get some sleep ok?" Joey nodded and said good night before walking into his room and closing the door. Atemu and Yugi walked back into the dining room, and cleaned up the dinner mess before heading off to bed themselves.
The next morning Joey woke up and relized he was still in his clothes he walked there in. He walked over to the closet and was surprised to find clothes in the there. He pulled on a white t-shirt with a blue strip and some blue jeans. They fit perfectly much to Joey's amazment. Joeys door open and Michelle walked in wearing a purple t-shirt and a blue jean skirt.
"Good morning Joey, I was thinking since Atemu and Yugi aren't up yet, why don't we make breakfast for them?" Joey smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, dat sound like a good idea sis, you go get started and I be there in a sec," Michelle nodded and skipped out of the room. Joey shook his head and rolled his eyes before pulling his shirt down and walking out of the room.
"Yugi and Atemu both woke up to the smell of pancakes cooking. They got up and walked into the kitchen to find Joey sitting at the table and Michelle standing on a chair next to the stove.
"Oh hey I was just about to come get you guys, Michelle thought sat since you been so nice to us lettin' us stay 'n all dat we'd at least make breakfast for ya," Joey explained seeing the confused look on the two look-a-likes faces. Yugi smiled and sat down at the table followed by Atemu.
"That was good, you'll have to cook more often," Yugi said wipping his mouth on the back of his arm. Joey smiled and rolled his eyes.
"Not unless you really like pancakes, dats the only thing she can cook," Yugi and Atemu looked at Michelle who smiled sheepishly at both of them.
"It true anything ealse I burn," Yugi and Atemu just smiled at her.
"Well then at least we know who to turn to when we feel like pancakes don't we Yugi?" Yugi nodded happily and everyone laughed. Joey and Michelle looked at each, glad that they had finally found some friends.
As the years past Atemu and Yugi got to know more and more about Joey and Michelle. Like the reason for them running away from their home was because a vampire named Amython had killed their parents. At hearing the name Yugi and Atemu both tensed up. They then began to explain to Joey and Michelle about how Amython had been after them since they were just kids. Joey was now sixteen, Atemu and Michelle were both eleven going on twelve and Yugi was nine going on ten. It was mid-december and the three older children were sitting around the table. Atemu looked around and noticed that Yugi hadn't joined them yet.
"Hey I'm going to go and check on Yugi," Atemu said getting up from the table. Atemu walked down the hall and slowly opened Yugi's door. On the bed Yugi was shivering. Atemu walked over and gasped. Yugi's sheets had been soaked through with sweat and his face was flushed. Yugi weakly looked up at Atemu.
"I-its c-cold A-Atemu," Yugi whispered. Atemu smiled sadly and sat down next to Yugi.
"I know Yugi, I'm going to make you a hot bath ok?" Yugi nodded before drifting back to sleep. Atemu sighed and went to complete his task. When he was finished he walked into the kitchen and asked Joey if he could carry Yugi into the bathroom after explaining what had happened. Joey nodded and walked into Yugi's room. He picked the small boy and his blanket up before carrying it into the bathroom and leaving Atemu and Yugi alone knowing Yugi would be more comfortable. Atemu helped Yugi strip and into the bath tube. Once Yugi was settled Atemu sat down next to the tube and talked with Yugi. One Atemu thought Yugi had been in there long enough he helped the younger get dressed and helped him back to his bedroom. The rest of the day Atemu, Michelle, and Joey helped take care of Yugi. Atemu was laying on his bed when he herd his door open. He looked up and saw Yugi standing there.
"Is there something you need Yugi?" Yugi shook his head shyly, "Then you shouldn't be up you'll just make yourself worse." Atemu grabbed his blanket and walked up to the younger boy and wrapped it around him.
"Atemu, I was woundering if I could sleep with you," Yugi said in a whisper. Atemu smiled and nodded, leading the younger to the bed, "Thank you for everything," Yugi whispered as Atemu claimed in next to him and hugged the small boy close. Both drifted to sleep.
The next morning Atemu woke up to find that his whole front was wet. He looked at Yugi and gasped as ne found that the small boy was trembling and wheezing. Atemu got up and ran into the bathroom. He got another shower started and helped Yugi in before going to get Joey.
"Joey could you go get something for Yugi?" Atemu asked, "His fevers gotten worse and I'm afraid that if we don't do anything that Yugi might…" Atemu couldn't bring himself to finish that sentence. Joey smiled at Atemu.
""Course, I may be awhile just try to keep 'im warm 'till I get back," Atemu nodded and Joey throw on his coat and shoes before heading out into the snow. Atemu went to go take care of Yugi. It was almost night fall by the time Joey had gotten back. Yugi, Atemu, and Michelle were all curled up in front of the fire place. Yugi's fever went down a little, but not enough.
"Her Yug' take this," Joey said handing the sick boy two little pills and a glass of water. Yugi smiled and took both pills before drifting to sleep.
The rest of winter pasted by with out incedent. Atemu and Michelle both celebrated their birthday on the same day since the two were only three day apart. Michelle and Yugi ran around the yard while Atemu and Joey were talking on the porch. Atemu looked at his friend and saw the thoughtful look on his face.
"What are you thinking about?" Atemu asked.
"I'm thinking about getting a job now dat I'm old enough," Joey said, "I mean, the fire place is nice and all, but it doesn't really get da place warm, so if I get a job we could get ready heating put in this place, dat way we don't have to worry 'bout any of us gettin' sick or anything." Atemu nodded in agreement. When Yugi had had that fever it had scared Atemu almost to death, and he didn't want it to happen again.
"If you think its best Joey," Atemu said, "In two more years when I'm old enough I'll get a job, that way Yugi and Michelle can stay home." Joey laughed, but nodded anyway. It really was a wired little family they had.
