It's been a week since Yami broke up with Tea and most of the time apart from going to school, was spent moping. Everywhere he went reminded him of her and school was no different, since they had every class together.
Tea would always sit by the window, looking though the window before getting yelled at by the teachers, for not paying attention while Yami would watch her intensely wanting nothing more than to just run to her and kiss her, just to take away the pain. Yugi, Joey and Tristan were caught in the middle since the break up, and tried everything to get them back together and failed. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that they still loved each other.
Tea took a deep breath before opening her locker and glance at a photo of she and Yami at the beach. It was taken a week after they began dating. She was in a red bikini while he was in a black swim trunk, she smiled at the picture thinking back to that time, the first time she saw Yami getting jealous and mad.
Flashback
Mr. Mutou dropped the gang along with Serenity off at Domino Beach and told them he would pick them up at 5:00 sharp before driving off.
Joey and Tristan didn't wait a minute before Mr. Mutou left to jet towards the snack bar. Yugi laughed while Tea sighed "Those two are always thinking with their stomach."
After Joey and Tristan mange to full their almost bottomless stomachs, the guys laid their towels along with their other stuff on the sand.
"I love the beach," Joey changed into a blue shorts. "A lot of hot babes, wearing nothing but binkies!" He finished before a girl with blonde hair and red eyes walked pasted him, in a blue one piece.
"Guys, I will see you later." Joey grinned "I think I am going get lucky today." He ran off towards the girl.
"Joey and his raging hormones," Tristan said before turning his attention to Serenity. "So, Serenity want to go for a swim?"
"Sure, Tristan, just let me change first." Serenity said before taking off her white shirt to and blue shorts to reveal a blue two piece.
"Wow!" Tristan muttered before Serenity asked, "Aren't you going to change, as will?"
"Yeah...Yeah" Tristan drooled before taking off his shirt. "Let's go!"
Serenity and Tristan went into the water leaving Yugi, Tea and Yami alone with the stuff.
"Do you think they will make a good couple?" Yugi asked.
"Maybe, but we will have to wait and see what happens first." Tea said.
"And hope that Joey doesn't attack Tristan, for going out with his sister." Yami said.
Yugi was about to say something else till a girl called out. "Oh Yugi!"
All three turned around to see a short girl with blonde hair catch up in pigtails, blue eyes covered by her glasses and wearing a pink one piece.
"Rebecca?" Yugi said as she run up to him.
"Yugi, where do you know her from?" Tea asked.
"Battle City, remember she was in the finals." Yugi answered.
"Oh,"
"Yugi, I didn't know you would be here today?" Rebecca gave him a short hug.
"Yeah, I'm here with my brother and best friends." He pointed out as a slight blush crept up on to his face.
"You like her?" Tea mouthed as Rebecca and Yugi were still interlocked in a hug.
"Yes." Yugi mouth back.
"Then go, ask her to spend some alone time with you." Yami indicated.
"You guys don't mind?" Yugi asked.
Tea and Yami shook their heads for no and as they parted Yugi asked, "Rebecca, want to grab a bite?"
"Sure Yugi," Rebecca happily replied. "It was nice meeting you two again" she turned to Yami and Tea.
"Same here." they said in unison before Yugi and Rebecca walked off.
Yami looked to Tea and surprised her with a quick kiss. "Going in?" he asked the now blushing girl.
"Not yet, I want to put on the sunscreen first." Tea took off her long blue shirt to reveal her red two piece.
"Holy-" Several guys said as they stopped to look at Tea.
Yami hugged Tea's waist and gave the guys an I-dare-you-to-touch-her look before they backed off quickly.
"Yami, can you rub it on my back for me?" Tea asked as she took out the sunscreen.
"Anything for you," Yami smiled as he took the bottle from her and gave her a nice rub down.
As soon as he finished her back, Yami began with her belly and tights. "Yami, you don't have to do that. I can do it." Tea blushed slightly, she wasn't use to having anyone close to her like this expect for the times when she and Yami did it at duellist kingdom.
"I know but I want touch you all over," Yami continued. "You're so beautiful."
As soon as Yami finished rubbing the sunscreen on Tea's body he took off his shirt and asked, "Tea, do you want something to eat?"
"No, but I would like water, please."
"Okay, I will be back shortly." Yami gave Tea a kiss before jogging off.
By the time he came back he saw a guy with long black hair caught up in a ponytail and green eyes talking to Tea and taught nothing of it, cause he knew Tea wouldn't cheat on him. When he came closer to hear, "Babes, there is this party keeping on the beach tonight. Do you want to be my date?"
"No and I already have a boyfriend, so leave my alone!"
"I don't think, you're coming with me!" The boy grabbed her hand. Tea tried to break free but couldn't until an idea kick in, literary. Tea used her leg and kick him in the balls which in turn caused the boy to yell in pain.
He released Tea's hand and cried out in pain. "You witch, I am going to get you for this."
"If you harm her you're died." Yami said as he walked up to Tea and held her closer to him.
"You're the boyfriend." The boy laughed. "You prefer this runt over a man like me?"
The boy ran towards the couple in a fit of rage and ready to pound in Tea's face, for kicking him till Yami stood in front of her and took the punch.
Yami laughed loudly which puzzled the boy and asked, "Is that all you got. I hate guys like you, attacking somebody because they don't like you. I would call you a pig but I wouldn't want to insult the pigs," before punching the guy in the face which caused him collided with the sand.
Blood dripped off the boy's face because of the impacted and Yami didn't stop there as he began to punch him over and over again with his eyes turning from their usually purple to red. Yami would have continued if he hadn't felt something on his back and knew it was Tea. He looked to see her crying, because of him and stopped.
"Please Yami, I think he has had enough, stop." Tea pleaded as the bleeding finally stopped dripping from the boys face.
Yami hugged her and whispered, "I am sorry but when I saw him about to hurt you, I went crazy and didn't know what else to do," before kissing away the tears.
Tea looked into his eyes as they turned back to their usual colour and lend up for a kiss
"Forgive me?" Yami whispered.
"You did nothing wrong." Tea told him.
"I love you," Yami gave her another kiss before turning to see the boy still lying down on the floor. He bends down beside him and said in a serious tone "If you touch or hurt my queen ever again you will regret it!" before he and Tea when back to their spot.
End Flashback
Tea gave a small laugh because as it turned out, the boy Yami beat up came to their school and when he saw Yami, he quickly got a transfer and moved to another city.
Yugi took a deep breath before knocking onto Yami's bedroom door.
"Come in," A voice said.
Yugi opened the door to see Yami sitting up on his bed holding a picture frame wearing dark blue pants along with a black sleeveless shirt and dark blue jacket. He sat beside Yami and saw that the frame had consisted of Tea, in her school uniform, seating under one the schools trees, smiling.
"Yam,i why don't you just call Tea and tell her you're still in love with her."
"I can't Yugi because me loving her has put her in great danger. Don't you see? One of my enemy's will use her to get to me and I would prefer to die than to see her get hurt again."
"Yami, you're hurting her right now. Don't you release that Tea knew what she was getting into, when the two of you got together but she stayed because she loves you and she knows that you will keep her safe as long as there is a breath in your body."
"Yugi..." Yami paused.
"Yami, call her and tell her your feelings before she loses hope and fall in the arms of another guy." Yugi said before the room door swing closed. "How did the door-" Yugi said in surprise.
"Maybe it's the wind." Yami still had his eyes on Tea's picture
"The window isn't open." Yugi said.
The room strated to fog up, as a light shined from the door way.
"Yami, stop drooling over Tea for a minute and look up!" Yugi said nervously
Yami looked up and became defence, ready to attack until a voice said, "My pharaoh, I bring you no harm."
The fog cleared to reveal a man with very tan skin, while wearing an ancient form of Egyptian clothing.
"Who are you?" Yami stood up ready to protect his brother.
"My king," the man kneed down in front of Yami. "I am Shadi, the guardian of the pharaoh and I am here to give you, two of the millennium items."
Shadi took out a golden key and scale handing them over to the pharaoh. "My king," he raised from the ground. "The only item left is the ring which you will have to find on your own. Then as you finally collect all seven millennium items you will have to go the pharaoh's tomb, where you will regain your lost memories and defeat the dark one."
"And who is this dark one, you speak of?" Yami asked.
"I do not know who he is but that he comes from the shadows, feeding off the evil in people's heart to try and regain his strength. One day he wants to send the world into the shadow realm." Shadi answered before he disappeared.
"Why I have..." Yami stopped when the man finally disappeared. "Shit!" he outburst.
"Will, on the up side, you do have six items now." Yugi said.
"Yes and one more to go" Yami said before a scream was heard from downstairs.
"Grandpa!" Yugi and Yami said as they ran down the stairs.
"Yami," The old man said as Yugi helped him up. "Someone, with long white hair and honey eyes took Ra!"
Yami took up his duel disk and deck before running outside. He spotted the criminal Grandpa description and ran him down into an alley way.
"Thief, give me back the God card!" Yami barked.
"Sorry pharaoh, you will have to duel me for it!" The man turned around wearing a stripe blue and white shirt with grey pants and a black coat.
"Who are you thief?" Yami growled.
"The King of Thievies, Bakura!" He laughed, "And now let's duel and when I win I will take your puzzle and your soul."
Their duel disk actives and they said "Let duel!"
It came down to the final draw and Bakura had no other monster expect Ra but he didn't know how to translate the inscription on it, so it remained in a ball and was of no use to him.
Yami drew his card and got magic formula and said, "I play Magic formula, increasing Dark Magician Girls attack points and now my magician, attack Bakura's life points directly."
Bakura's life points dropped to zero and all the monsters disappear leaving Bakura and Yami.
Yami looked down on Bakura as the white hair thief held his head down not showing his devilish grin then Yami's puzzle began to glow along with his forehead as he yelled, "OBERATE!"
As the light diminished all that was left on the ground was a duel disk and the millennium ring.
He picked up the Winged Dragon of Ra and the ring before walking back home.
'That idea may have been a little to bold' Bakura thought 'but no matter as long as the ring is still around so will my spirit. Nothing will stop me from getting all of the millennium items and once the pharaoh goes to Egypt I will reawaken the dark one and after three thousand years, the WORLD WILL BE MINE TO CONTROL AT LAST!'
It was almost six p.m and the sun was about to set, so Yami decide to take a little stop at the park, where he knew would have the prefect view of the sunset. It was a small patch of island that was connected to the park by a bridge, it had a bench and a tall cherry tree. He and Tea had watch the sunset from there, many times. He smiled at the thought of his beloved before he reached his distention that's where he saw her, the only woman that was and still his everything.
"Tea," he whispered as he stopped onto the bridge admiring her in lavender shirt, pink shirt and grey jacket.
Tea turned at the sound of her name to see Yami and turned away trying to hide her tears. Yami couldn't resist any longer and ran up to her embracing her gently till Tea got up. "Don't touch me!" She cried. "You made me feel this way, I love you even after you broke my heart and destroyed it to a million pieces."
"Tea," Yami said before Tea interrupted him.
"Tell me why? Why did you break up with me? Is it because of my hair, how I look, my personality, tell me why?" She continued to cry.
"Because I love you, damn it!" Yami said
"If you loved me, you wouldn't have broken up with me." Tea spat before she began to wake away until Yami grabbed her wrist, stopping her.
"Tea, I love you more than life itself. I missed you so much that I even brought the perfume you always wear and spray it on my pillows."
"Then why did you break up with me?" Tea continued to cry.
"To protect you!" Yami said as tears flow from his eyes.
"What?"
"To protect you, Tea. I realized then since I love you, my enemy will try and hurt you, just like Marik did and I knew I couldn't be able to protect you, if we were together."
Tea stood there for a moment before slapping Yami across the face. "How could you think that Yami, I have always felt safe when I am with you even when Marik took over my mind, I knew that you would find a way to help me."
Yami rubbed the area Tea had slapped him before saying, "if you're sure about this, then will you have me?"
Tea cuffed Yami's face and said, "Yes, I am sure about this and that I love you enough to stand by your side though thick and thin."
"Then, will you accept this gift?" Yam took out a necklace and gave it to her. "I brought it two weeks ago, I hope you like it."
Tea opened it to reveal a picture of the two of them and read the words in it.
"Yami," Tea said. "It's beautiful."
"Not as beautiful as you, my love." Yami offered to put it on her which she nodded to.
Tea blushed before saying, "Yami I have something for you too." She took out a silver locket
Yami open the locket to see the two of them kissing and on the other side of it had words written on it.
Yami put it on and said, "I will treasure this forever, my queen"
Tea looked as the sun finally set and the sky turned black.
"That was a lovely sunset." Tea said before turning back to Yami, who was watching her the entire time.
Before Tea could say something Yami close the distance between them and lend downwards to give her a kiss.
Tea missed the feelings of Yami's lips onto hers, she was scared of forgetting it but now she knew she wouldn't now and forever. Yami felt Tea's soft lips onto her and had longing to do this all week, never wanting to forget the feeling of it. A few minutes later they had to part for air.
"I love you," Yami said as he hugged her waist.
"I love you, too." Tea hugged his neck while resting her head on his chest both enjoying the warmth, they had missed for the past week.
Yami kissed Tea's hair, thinking, 'I am never going to let you go ever again.'
The next day Yami woke up and looked down at Tea, who was sleeping peacefully on his chest. Last night was incrediable. Yami thought as he hugged her waist even tighter. He knew Yugi and Grandpa would curse him later since he and Tea were doing a lot of screaming and moaning, for almost the entire night.
Later in the day he called Isis and asked her about the Pharaoh's tomb.
She informed him what to do and booked the travel arrangements for them and assured him that she will escort him on his travels.
