Planning
Yugi smiled as he gazed to the ring on his finger, watching as the diamond flashed in the lighting, he was in pure bliss at the moment, having just calmed down from being proposed to, he sighed slightly, knowing Atemu had decided to fly out to see Seto, and give an update, he also wanted to learn if Tea was still at large. He smiled and went to the kitchen, walking to the fridge, he opened the door and pulled out a can of mountain dew, popping it open he took a swig and sighed, closing the door he went back to the living room, his white wings flexed slightly as he hummed, looking at all the bridal magazines on the table.
"I really don't want a big, fancy wedding.. heck I wouldn't care if we were married in front of a judge.. Atemu makes me happy either way" he said as he sat down, looking at all the cake designs, he then tapped his fingers on the can "hmm..I've known Atemu for a year now...but that would make our wedding cake at least two tiers... maybe I should go three?" he sat back "three tiers..with maybe red and violet roses around each tier.." he then stopped as he heard someone land upstairs, a giggle escaped as he felt the familiar presence of his lover /welcome home, dear/Atemu smiled and came downstairs "hello Yugi"
Yugi smiled as he got up and hugged his beloved before he sat back down with him "so...what do you think.. of a somewhat small wedding?", Atemu tilted his head, his golden bangs on his left side, swaying over his left eye for a moment, "hmm... it wouldn't matter to me..beloved, this is our day..plan it however you wish to", Yugi smiled and kissed his cheek "thank you, but I still want your input, after-all it is 'our' day... not just mine", Atemu chuckled lightly "touche, my dear" he then looked at the cake designs, "sweetheart, why don't you design...our cake?", Yugi blinked "me? but..." he then thought about it "I could do it.. but I have never cooked a cake before.." Atemu smiled to him lovingly "then I shall take the design to a professional..the next time I go out".
Yugi smiled and hugged his lover "alright, thank you" he then leaned in and kissed him, closing his eyes as he felt the spark go between them, Atemu kissed back, holding his small companion, wishing they could go a step farther, but he knew Yugi was afraid..due to never having had a true relationship before he met Atemu. once the need for air became to great, they broke and snuggled up together, Yugi then looked up "How's Seto?", Atemu smiled "he's okay, his new line of duel disks are selling like hot cakes, and he has told me that he has a special swat team on call if Tea should decide to come after us, or any of our friends and family"
Yugi smiled "that's my cousin for you, ever since I met you, he's become protective, though I hope Grandpa is okay", Atemu nodded and then smiled "why don't we go see him?", Yugi blinked "can we?", Atemu nodded "well yeah, right now we're in the clear and if we fly at night, we'll get there undetected", Yugi nodded and stood up "then let's go"
About an hour later, under the light of a crescent moon, Yugi and Atemu flew to Domino City, their wings glowing softly in the light, soon they neared the game-shop and Yugi back-winged, nodding to his lover, he opened the door, "Grandpa?", Solomon Muto emerged from the door that connected the game-shop to the house and he gasped "Yugi! oh thank Ra, you're alright!" he came over and hugged his grandson, "what..are these on your back?" he asked, looking at Yugi, Yugi made a nervous smile "wings...grandpa", Solomon's eyes widened and he looked behind Yugi, "so the Legend was true", Yugi and Atemu came in "yes, every bit of it... you must be Yugi's grandfather, Solomon.."
Solomon nodded, Atemu chuckled "I am Atemu Aketsu, Yugi's other half.", Solomon smiled "I wondered when he'd find you", Yugi blushed "and grandpa..", Solomon blinked "yes?", Yugi then showed him the ring "we're engaged" Solomon's eyes widened and he clapped his hands "oh goodness! this is great news!", Atemu chuckled and they spent the rest of the night, speaking to Solomon, though near four o'clock in the morning, Yugi waved good-bye and he and Atemu, took off, flying high above the city, to avoid being seen. Once over the ocean, Yugi sighed and Atemu looked to him "penny for your thoughts?", he asked, Yugi chuckled lightly, then looked down " I'm afraid, he's not going to last much longer"
Atemu nodded "you sensed it too?", Yugi sniffled "I did, I just didn't want to say anything", Atemu nodded and they flew the rest of the way in silence.
Meanwhile back in Domino, Seto had been having all sorts of issues, dealing with his company and trying to re-frame from killing a certain Blue-eyed female, it was getting on his last nerve, though as of late, Yugi's best friend Joey had been coming around, helping him, though the blonde would ask if he knew where Yugi had gone, all Seto told him was that Yugi was with Atem and they were both okay., Seto sighed as he sat down, drumming his fingers on his desktop, he knew Yugi and Atem had gone to see Mr. Muto, having seen them both fly past his office window, he chuckled lightly 'I never knew Yugi could fly so gracefully, it's like he was meant to have wings...'
he thought to himself, he then began typing before his head shot up, hearing his secretary speak to someone, before the door slammed open, with a loud BANG, there standing in the door-way was a very, very pissed off Tea, dressed in what looked like Black leather from her head to her black stiletto boots, Seto made a face, 'leather is sooo not her' he thought, before she stomped over to him. "Where is Atem?" she demanded, Seto shrugged "no idea, I lost contact with them after they left the college..", Tea's eyes narrowed "you're lying.." she hissed, he shook his head "no seriously"
He then felt a familiar dark presence enter his mind, he shivered mentally /she's here...demanding to see you/ he told Atemu mentally, Atemu meanwhile had just landed when he felt a presence through Kaiba's alarms /find a way to get her to leave..Seto, we can not afford to be revealed right now../ Seto nodded and then glared at Tea "look I don't have any idea where they are...just leave me alone", Tea growled and then started heading out the door "if I find out otherwise..." she said in a dark tone "there will be dire consequences", she then left and Seto rolled his eyes "like I should be scared?",
Atemu made a mental sigh /you should be Seto, somehow...she felt a bit more...evil, than in our last encounter, something is truly going on..and we need to find out, so we can prevent it/, Seto nodded /need me to do anything?/ Atemu shook his head /as of right now, just keep doing what you are doing and I know it is difficult but once we finish out the prophecy, then your lives will return to normal, and Yugi and I will...well we'll vanish/, Seto blinked //vanish? where?/
Atemu sat down, on his and Yugi's bed, while his beloved was in the shower, /once the prophecy of the rose is complete, then Yugi and I will return to the Hall of the Gods..where we will live..for the rest of eternity, being that we are the symbols of balance..in the mortal realm./ Seto then nodded as he felt the presence leave and he went back to work 'I am getting in way over my head...' he thought 'but I promised my mother, I'd watch over, not only Mokuba, but Yugi too'
Yugi sighed as he came to lay on the bed, having heard the conversation between Atemu and Seto "she's getting out of hand..", Atemu nodded "we need to find out how..first off, then we must find a way to prevent her from hurting not only us, but innocents as well." Yugi nodded and then laid down, Atemu wrapping an arm around his young lover "so I guess that means we need to hold the wedding off until she's gone?", Atemu sighed "I'm afraid so, my sweet, I am sorry", Yugi smiled and nodded, before snuggling into Atemu and falling asleep, Atemu smiled as he nuzzled Yugi one last time, laying back, he closed his eyes and soon, sleep succumbed the Angel of Darkness as well.
