•Yugi POV•
It all happened so fast.
Me and Ryou have been dating for 2 and a halve year. I thought he was finally about to propose. But then, I get a call from Joey. Ryou was in a horrible car accident. He was killed on impact. His family already started the arrangements for the funeral. All his friends were invited.
It looked like everyone was there. Even Seto and Mokuba came to pay there respects. I was surprised, no one was crying, not even Ryou's father. I tried not to be the only one to burst into tears upon seeing his motionless body, but I couldn't. So I stepped outside to avoid the stares.
"Hey, Yug'? You out here?" I heard being called from next to me. I turned my head away from Joey, trying to hide the fact I had been crying. But I guess it was too obvious. "You ok Yug'?"
"No Joey, I'm not!" I exploded, turning to show the tears flowing down my cheeks. "I loved Ryou, and now he's gone! I just don't know what to do now." I said, sobbing, surprisingly loud.
"I understand man, why don't you try to calm down a bit, than come back in. The funeral is about to start."
I nodded, wiping tears off my face. Joey nodded back, walking inside. I waited a few minutes, before I went back in, not sobbing anymore, but still crying slightly. I went to where the casket was and took my reserved seat up near the front.
First the host went up and said a few words. 'He was a good man.' 'He will be dearly missed.' The normal you would expect from a funeral. Then Ryou's father went up and said a few words. Then something surprising happened.
"And now, we will let the friends and families of the lost young man say good-bye before he is laid to rest."
I sat and waited to let everyone else go first. Then, when everyone else was done and in the other room getting ready for the reception, I got up to say my last farewells to the one I loved. I touched his head and looked at his face. He felt warmer than i would have expected for the amount of time he'd been dead. Just seeing him made me start to sob again. I knelt down, putting my arms on the edge of the casket, and my head in my arms. "Why did you have to leave me?" I sobbed into my arms. Then I felt an arm touch my shoulder. I didn't think anything of it until the person kissed my head. 'Grandpa hadn't come, had he?' So I looked up to see who just had kissed me to see Ryou sitting up in his casket, smiling down at me.
I screamed bloody murder!
Then I startled awake by a hand shaking me. "Yugi, Yugi! Are you ok? You were crying."
"Oh, Ryou, you're alive. Thank god!" I said, uncovering myself, leaping off the bed and going to hug him, still crying.
"Of course I'm alive, why wouldn't I be?" He asked, hugging back, kissing my cheek, than wiping the tears off my face. So I told him about my dream. He hugged me close. "Well, don't worry about it now, I'm fine." He said, chuckling lightly.
I nodded. Then I turned to give him a kiss on the lips. 'It was just a dream, and hopefully that was all it would ever be.' I thought to myself enjoying kissing my love.
Ryou pulled away. "Now come downstairs, I have a surprise!" He said grabbing my hand and dragging me downstairs. At the bottom of the stairs were all our friends. Joey, Tea, Tristan, Atem, Seto, Mokuba, Marik, Ishizu, Odion, even my grandfather and Ryou's father. Everyone looked overly ecstatic, even Seto.
Though that looked dropped off Atem when he asked "Yugi, is something the matter, you look like you've been crying?"
"Yeah I'm fine, just a bad dream, now what's going on here?" I asked, curiously.
Everyone beamed. I looked over a Ryou, who still had my hand, but I didn't see him. So I looked down and saw him on one knee, ring box in hand. I threw my hand over my mouth, afraid i was about to start crying again. Is he doing what I think he's doing?
"Yugi, I love you with all my heart. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Yugi Mutou, will you marry me?" He asked, smiling widely.
I tried so hard not to cry, but I couldn't hold I couldn't hold it back anymore. I started sobbing, then Seto started to laugh at me. I'm guessing someone hit him, cause I heard a thud, then he stopped.
"Well?" Ryou asked. Then I remembered what had actually happened. I nodded yes because I was still crying and unable to speak. Ryou slipped the ring on my finger. Then he got off the floor, and kissed me, as if to say 'thank you so much!'
"I love you so much, Ryou." I managed to whisper in his ear when I was finished crying.
"Come on, everyone! Lets go celebrate!" Grandpa called, grabbing his keys.
"Yeah!" Everyone called in unison to go celebrate the new soon-to-be-married couple.
