Here's the next chapter.

There's a lemon between Yugi and Yami in this chapter, so skip the writing between the bold if you don't like that kind of thing. YOU WERE WARNED!!!

Chapter 23- The Wedding

The sun streamed in through the windows in the Millennial Kingdom.

The sunlight hit Yugi in the face, causing Yugi to groan. He opened his eyes and looked up, seeing that it was morning.

Yugi sat up in bed and stretched. He turned to the side to see that his brother was still sound asleep. "Heba, wake up." Yugi said, shaking his brother gently.

Heba groaned before he rolled over onto his side so that he faced away from Yugi.

Yugi shook his head. "Heba, you have to get up. It's morning." Yugi said, shaking his brother a little harder.

"Go away, Atemu. I'm too tired for that." Heba muttered, pulling the covers over his head.

Yugi shook his head. "I don't think that I'm your husband, Heba." Yugi said, fighting back against his laughter.

Heba opened his eyes and turned to look at Yugi. He blinked a few times before he remembered where he was. "Oh my gosh! Today's your wedding!" Heba exclaimed, jumping up.

"Calm down, Heba. It's not like we're late, but we do need to get ready." Yugi said.

"Right. Sorry about that." Heba said as he got out of bed.

"Don't worry about it. Come on. We have to get ready." Yugi said.

"Um, Yugi?" Heba said.

"What?" Yugi asked, turning to look at his brother.

"Would it be possible for us to have breakfast first? I am pregnant, and I don't think that I should skip breakfast." Heba said.

It was then that Heba's stomach started to growl.

Yugi laughed. "I think that your baby agrees with you." Yugi said.

Heba started to blush a little.

"Okay, Heba. I'll have the servants bring us some breakfast." Yugi said. He got out of bed and went to the door. He got a servant and told them to bring them breakfast.

"You think Atemu and Yami are up yet?" Heba asked.

"I don't know although I think that Atemu might have to fight to get Yami out of bed." Yugi said.

Heba laughed. "Atemu might end up pushing him out of bed just to get him up." Heba said.

"As long as Yami's not late for our wedding, I don't care how Atemu gets him out of bed." Yugi told his brother.

When the servants brought their breakfast, Yugi and Heba sat down to eat.

Atemu was woken up by the sunlight hitting him in the face. He blinked a few times, trying to get his foggy mind to work.

It took a moment for Atemu to remember where he was and why.

Atemu turned to where his brother was still sound asleep. Reaching over, Atemu started to shake Yami. "Wake up, Yami. It's morning." Atemu said.

Yami didn't budge.

"Come on, Yami. You have to get up. You're getting married today." Atemu said.

Yami still didn't move an inch.

Atemu groaned. 'I had hoped that it would be easy to get him out of bed for once. I suppose that's just wishful thinking.' Atemu thought.

Not knowing what else to do, Atemu took his pillow and hit Yami in the head with it, but Yami didn't move.

"Geez! I think that he sleeps even sounder here than he did at home. Normally, he would have gotten up because of that and started yelling at me." Atemu muttered.

Yami hugged his pillow as he snuggled back into the mattress and went still again.

Atemu sighed. "Too bad Yugi can't come in here and get him up." Atemu said.

Finally, Atemu decided to do the one thing that he thought might get his brother out of bed. "Yami, Yugi came by, and he's called off the wedding." Atemu said.

"WHAT?!" Yami shouted as he jumped out of bed and on his feet.

Atemu started laughing hysterically at the panicked look on Yami's face. He started rolling on the bed and holding his sides as he laughed.

Yami was confused for a moment before he realized that Atemu had tricked him. He glared at his brother. "That wasn't funny, Atemu." Yami growled.

"Yami, you wouldn't get up any other way. I thought that that might wake you up." Atemu said.

Yami sighed. "Fine. As long as Yugi didn't come by here and say that, it's fine." Yami replied.

"He didn't. In fact, I didn't get up until about ten minutes ago. I spent the next eight minutes trying to get you to wake up." Atemu answered as he got out of bed. "Come on. We need to get ready for that wedding." Atemu said.

"Atemu, maybe we should consider eating first." Yami said.

"Oh. Right." Atemu said.

"Heba does make sure that you eat now, doesn't he?" Yami asked, knowing that his brother had a habit of forgetting to eat breakfast when he was going something.

"Yes, he does. He always makes sure that I eat." Atemu answered.

"All right. I'll get the servants to bring us some breakfast and then we can start getting ready." Yami told him. He then walked over to the door and stepped to tell the servants to bring them breakfast.

"Well, you won't be single for much longer." Atemu said.

"I know, and I can't wait." Yami said.

Atemu laughed. "If I had felt the way I do now about Heba at our wedding, I'm sure that I would have been saying the exact same thing." Atemu said.

"Most likely." Yami said, knowing how his brother felt about Heba.

The time for the wedding had come, and everyone had gathered in the palace gardens where the wedding was going to place.

Yugi was glad that the weather had worked out for them to have the wedding outdoors.

All of the guests were seated out in the palace gardens, waiting for the wedding to begin.

"So, how does this work?" Marik asked.

Malik rolled his eyes. "Marik, the wedding will go the same way it did back in Egypt. It's just a few other traditions that go along with the wedding that are a bit different from your traditions." Malik told his husband.

"At least we'll know what's going on." Bakura said. He had his arms crossed over his chest and looked like he was bored out of his mind.

"Behave yourself, Bakura." Aknankanon said, not wanting Bakura to do anything that might disrupt the wedding.

The music then started to play and everyone knew that the wedding was about to start.

Dartz, who would be officiating the wedding, was standing at the alter with Yami, who was already there, waiting for Yugi to get there.

Yami was dressed in a pair of black pants with black boots on as well. He wore a black shirt with a white vest over the shirt. He had on a blood red cape as well.

Yugi then walked down from the entrance to the palace to where Yami and Dartz were.

Yugi was wearing a pair of white pants with black boots on. He had on a white shirt with a white dress jacket on over the shirt. He also wore a white cape. He had on a medallion with the symbol of the Millennial Royal family. He also wore the ring around his head with the amethyst jewel in it that symbolized that he was the Emperor.

"We are gathered here to day to join Emperor Yugi of the Millennial Kingdom and Prince Yami of Egypt together in holy matrimony." Dartz said.

The crowd, which was a mix of Egyptian nobles, Millennial nobles, and other allies, were silent as they watched the wedding proceed.

"Emperor Yugi, do you take Prince Yami as your husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health as long as you both live?" Dartz asked.

"I do." Yugi said.

"Prince Yami, do you take Emperor Yugi as your husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health as long as you both live?" Dartz asked.

"I do." Yami replied.

"The rings?" Dartz asked.

Heba handed Yugi the silver ring to give to Yami, and Atemu handed Yami the silver ring to give to Yugi.

"Emperor Yugi, place the ring on Prince Yami's right hand and say 'with this ring, I thee wed'." Dartz said.

Yugi placed the ring on Yami's ring finger on his right hand and said, "With this ring, I thee wed."

"Prince Yami, place the ring on Emperor Yugi's right hand and say 'with this ring, I thee wed'." Dartz said.

Heba placed the ring on Atemu's right ring finger and said, "With this ring, I thee wed."

"I now pronounce you married. You may kiss you husband." Dartz said.

Yugi and Yami kissed each other briefly, but passionately.

The guests applauded for them.

There was one more piece to this wedding that Yugi had to attend to.

Solomon walked forward with a ring that held a ruby gem in it. It looked similar to the one that Yugi wore, which symbolized him as the Emperor.

"From now on, Yami will also be known as the Emperor of the Millennial Kingdom alongside me." Yugi said as he took the ring from his grandfather and placed it on Yami's head.

Once more, there was the sound of applauding as people clapped for the new couple.

After the wedding had ended, there was a banquet being held in honor of Yugi and Yami's marriage.

Everyone had gathered together in the ballroom for the celebration of the wedding. People were talking, eating, and dancing.

Yugi and Yami walked together through the crowd.

"Well, at least we're married now." Yami said as he held Yugi's hand in his own.

"I know, Yami. I'm happy about this, too." Yugi said.

The two were receiving a great deal of congratulations on their marriage.

Neither really wanted to have stay at the banquet any longer than they had to, but they knew that it would last for a while.

Atemu, Heba, Marik, Malik, Bakura, Ryou, Seto, and Joey were all standing near where the food was.

"I think that Yugi and Yami look great. They make such a great couple." Ryou said as he watched the two.

"I guess so." Bakura muttered.

"Kura, can't you at least try and be nice? This is your cousin's wedding, so you could act at least a little bit happy." Ryou said.

"I wasn't happy at our wedding, so why should I be happy at Yami's wedding?" Bakura asked.

"You weren't happy then because you were forced into that marriage." Marik said.

Bakura glared at him. "Oh, shut up!" Bakura snapped.

Atemu rolled his eyes. "Could you two stop arguing before you cause a scene? I don't want to be embarrassed at Yugi and Yami's wedding." Atemu said.

"Besides, I think that you know what Uncle Aknankanon and Aunt Amara would do to you two for something like that." Seto said.

The two didn't look scared in the least.

"Hey. Anyone know why Yugi and Yami wanted to have the wedding in the garden?" Joey asked as he looked up from his plate of food.

"Are the weddings here not usually outside?" Atemu asked.

"Nope. Normally, royal weddings are held in the throne room. That's why it bugged me that Yugi and Yami got married outside. It's rather rare that something like that happens." Joey answered.

"Hmm. I don't have a clue." Malik said.

"Any idea, Heba?" Ryou asked.

They got a muffled answer.

The group turned to see that Heba had a plate and his mouth was full of food.

"Heba." Atemu said, shocked.

"What?" Heba asked after he swallowed.

"Normally, Joey's the one that's stuffing his food, not you, Heba. So why are you doing that?" Ryou asked as he looked at Heba.

"Oh. I was hungry, and I needed to eat." Heba said.

"It's just not like you." Atemu said.

"I'm eating for two now. So sue me." Heba said.

"From the looks of you, it's more like three." Bakura muttered.

Heba glared at Bakura. "Ryou, you might want to control your husband before you two end up not being able to have any children." Heba said.

Gulping, Bakura took a step back to hide behind Ryou since he had a feeling that he had just pissed Heba off.

Atemu wrapped an arm around Heba. "Calm down, Heba. You know that Bakura doesn't mean most of what he ends up saying." Atemu said.

"Why does Heba look ready to kill?" Yugi asked as he and Yami walked up to them.

"Because Bakura made a crack about how big he's gotten with this pregnancy by implying he might be having twins." Ryou answered.

"Why would you say that?" Yugi asked.

"Well, he is big, and he's eating four times as much as the chow hound over here." Bakura said, motioning to Joey.

"Hey! I resent that!" Joey said.

"Like I care." Bakura said.

"Take it easy, Heba. It's not like it means anything." Yugi said.

"Yeah, and would it be so bad if you did end up having twins?" Yami asked.

"Not really." Atemu said.

Heba glared at his husband. "You can say that because you're not the one that is going to be having them." Heba said.

"In any case, are you guys enjoying yourselves?" Yugi asked.

"Yeah. We are." Ryou assured him.

"Hey, Yugi. Maybe you can answer a question I have. Why did you decide to have the wedding in the gardens? Normally, they're held in the throne room." Joey said.

"Oh! I decided to have it in the gardens because it's the place where Yami and I first admitted that we were in love with each other." Yugi answered.

"That's so romantic." Ryou said.

Marik and Bakura were making gagging noises.

Malik rolled his eyes. "Ignore them." Malik said.

"I normally do." Yugi said.

"I always do." Yami added.

The group started laughing.

Yugi and Yami went back out to mingle again.

"Happy, are you?" Amara asked as she and Aknankanon walked over to them.

"Yes, we are, Mom." Yami answered.

"Well, we are happy for you both. Just know that you can come and visit us any time you want." Aknankanon said.

"And the same goes for you." Yugi replied.

The celebration of the wedding went on all day, and when night fell, the celebrations came to an end.

Everyone either left the palace or went to their guest room for the night.

Yugi and Yami headed to their room.

"Well, I'm glad that that's over." Yami said.

Yugi turned to him. "Well, you didn't have to go through all of that." Yugi said.

Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist as he kicked the door shut. "Now, I couldn't have done that. We wouldn't have been married otherwise." Yami said.

"Then stop complaining about it. It's over now, so there's nothing for you to worry about." Yugi said.

"True." Yami agreed. He then smirked. "Although there is one thing that we haven't done yet to make this day worth it." Yami said.

"What's that?" Yugi asked.

Yami leaned down and kissed Yugi passionately, making sure that Yugi knew just what Yami was talking about.

"Hmm." I think I get the point now." Yugi said as he wrapped his arms around Yami's neck.

"I thought that you would." Yami said as he tightened his arms around Yugi's waist.

LEMON STARTS HERE!

Yami leaned down and kissed Yugi again. He ran his tongue over Yugi's bottom lip, and Yugi opened his mouth to let Yami inside. Yami roamed around the inside of Yugi's mouth, getting Yugi to moan out in pleasure.

Yami's hands then crept up to Yugi's chest. He took the medallion off by unclasping it before throwing it to the side. He then began to unbutton Yugi's shirt. Once the shirt was completely unbuttoned, he pushed the cape, jacket, and shirt off of Yugi's shoulders, letting the clothing fall to the ground.

Yami then leaned down and started to nip at Yugi's neck. Yugi leaned his head to the side to give Yami more room, and Yami started to suck on the pulse point of Yugi's neck.

Yugi raised his hands and unzipped the vest before he unbuttoned Yami's shirt. He then pushed the cape, shirt, and vest off of Yami so that they fell to the floor with Yugi's clothes.

Pulling away from Yugi's neck, Yami looked at his work, smiling at the bruise that had formed. Yami then picked Yugi up bridal style."Ah! Yami!" Yugi exclaimed.

Yami chuckled. "I think that we're going to be more comfortable on the bed, Yugi." Yami explained.

Yami walked over and set Yugi down on the bed before he climbed onto the bed as well, straddling Yugi at the waist.

Yugi leaned back into the bed and smirked. "Well, aren't you going to do something?" Yugi asked.

Yami smirked back. "Oh, I'm going to be doing something all right, and you're going to be screaming my name by the time I'm done with you." Yami said.

Yami then leaned down and started to kiss Yugi down his neck.

Once Yami's reach Yugi's chest, he started to kiss every inch of Yugi's chest, loving the taste of the pale flesh. He licked, kissed, and nipped at every inch of Yugi's chest.

When he reached one of Yugi's semi-erect nipples, Yami took on into his mouth and started to suck on it.

Yugi arched up and cried out when Yami did this.

Yami sucked on the nipple until it was hard before he turned his attention to the other nipple, giving it the same treatment.

Once he was done with that, Yami started to kiss on Yugi's body. At his naval, Yami dipped his tongue in several times before he finished.

Unable to go any further, Yami sat back and unbuckled Yugi's pants before he pulled them and his boxers off and tossed them to the floor.

Yugi shivered as the cool air hit his heated member.

Yami gazed down at Yugi and smirked. "Someone's anxious, I see." Yami said as he leaded down ran a finger down Yugi's erect member.

"Yami! Please!" Yugi begged, not wanting to be teased that night.

"Turn over onto your stomach." Yami said.

Yugi blinked, surprised. This was new. "What?" Yugi asked.

"Turn over onto your stomach." Yami repeated.

Yugi had no idea why Yami wanted him to do that, but Yugi did it anyway.

Yami then leaned over Yugi and saw his unmarred back. 'Truly perfect.' Yami thought. He then leaned down so that his face was at Yugi's back before he licked up Yugi's back.

"Yami!" Yugi exclaimed as he arched up against Yami's tongue.

Yami chuckled as he continued to run his tongue over every inch of Yugi's back, savoring every moment. Yami then moved down and started to run his tongue up and down Yugi's thighs, wanting to taste every inch of Yugi.

Yami felt the growing tightness in his pants and knew that he needed to get out of them. Yami took off his pants as well as his boxers.

Yami then reached over to the nightstand and grabbed the vile of lube that was there. He took it and coated three fingers in the substance. He then placed one finger at Yugi's entrance, and his finger easily slipped inside.

Yugi arched up against the finger.

Yami started to move his finger around before he added in a second finger. Yami then started to move his fingers in a scissor-like motion.

Yugi was writhing and moaning under Yami's actions.

Yami smirked before he added in the third finger and rubbed against Yugi's prostate.

"YAMI!" Yugi cried out as he gripped the bed sheets tightly.

Yami continued to stretch Yugi for what he knew was coming.

Once Yami was done preparing Yugi, he gently took hold of Yugi and turned him over so that Yugi was back on his back again. "You know that I prefer to make love to you when I can see your face." Yami said.

"I know. You've told me that on more than one occasion." Yugi replied.

Yami reached for the lube so that he could prepare himself, but Yugi got to it before he could reach it.

"I'm going to prepare you this time, Yami." Yugi said. He then squirted some of the lube into his hand before he wrapped his hand around Yami's member and started to stroke him.

Yami groaned as he bucked his hips into Yugi's hand slightly. He loved the feel of Yugi's hand on him.

Yugi started to stroke Yami faster.

Yami groaned. He loved it when Yugi did this to him. Yami had to reach and grab Yugi's hand before he ended up coming then and there. "You little imp! Are you trying to finish me now?" Yami asked.

Yugi giggled. "No, but its sure fun to see that look on your face." Yugi answered.

Yami growled before he pinned Yugi to the bed. "All right, Yugi. Enough teasing." Yami said.

Yugi knew what that meant and spread his legs. Yami settled between Yugi's legs and positioned himself at Yugi's entrance.

Yami laced their fingers together before he said, "Ready?"

Yugi nodded.

Yami then thrust into Yugi to the hilt.

Yugi arched his back and cried out when Yami did that.

Yami held still for a few moments to give Yugi time to adjust.

Yugi, however, grew impatient. "Yami, move already!" Yugi hisses.

Getting the hint, Yami pulled out until only the tip was left in before he thrust back in hard.

Yugi arched his back and wrapped his legs around Yami's waist.

Yami started to move at a fast, hard pace.

"YAMI!" Yugi cried out when Yami hit his prostate.

Smirking, Yami started to aim for that spot, thrusting in Yugi's prostate over and over again.

Yami could soon feel himself starting to reach his end, so he reached between their sweating bodies and grasped Yugi's member, starting to stroke him in time with his thrusts.

Yugi cried out at the feeling of Yami's hand on him.

When Yami ran his thumb in the slit of Yugi's member, Yugi lost it. "YAMI!" Yugi cried as he arched up and released all over Yami's hand as well as their chests and stomachs.

Yami felt Yugi's walls clamp down tightly on him. Yami hissed at the tightness as he managed to thrust into his husband a few more times before he also released. "YUGI!" Yami groaned as he released inside of Yugi.

The two were tense as they rode the waves of their orgasms.

LEMON ENDS HERE!

Yami collapsed on top of Yugi.

Both were sweating and panting as they recovered from their lovemaking.

Yami raised up and pushed Yugi's sweaty bangs out of his eyes. "I don't know about you, but I think that that was incredible." Yami said.

"I thought so, too." Yugi replied.

Yami pulled out of Yugi before he rolled over to the side to lay beside Yugi. "Well, I know that I can say this. I am very happy now that we are married. We get to spend the rest of our lives together." Yami said.

"I know." Yugi said as he cuddled up next to Yami.

"I can't wait to get started on the rest of our lives." Yami said.

"Neither can I, although if it's all right with you, I'd rather we didn't have kids any time in the near future. I'd like to wait a while." Yugi said.

Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi. "As long as it doesn't mean we can't make love anymore." Yami said.

"Don't worry. I know when I could get pregnant and when I couldn't. We'll just have to avoid the times I could." Yami said.

"How long is that?" Yami asked.

"Usually a three-day period." Yugi answered.

"Hmm. I can live with that." Yami said.

Yugi smiled. "Good." Yugi replied.

The two then settled down to go to sleep.

Hope you liked it.

Next: Heba has his and Atemu's baby. Also is the last chapter for this story.
