~Chapter 10~

Twisted

It had been nearly two weeks since Yugi and Atemu went to visit, Yugi's grandfather, and Yugi had begun to worry, though he would not admit it lightly, he sighed as he continued practicing his magic, a small smile appeared on his face as his favorite song came on the radio, Luke Bryan's 'I don't want this Night to End'.

He smiled as he started singing along, swaying his hips to the music, his eyes closed:

Girl I know I don't know you
But your pretty little eyes so blue
Are pulling me in
Like the moon on your skin

I'm so glad you trusted me
To slide up on this dusty seat
And let your hair down
Get out of town

Got the stars coming out over my hood
And all I know now is it's going good

You got your hands up
You're rocking in my truck
You got the radio on
You're singing every song
I'm set on cruise control
I'm slowly losing hold
Of everything I got
You're looking so damn hot

And I don't know what road we're on
Or where we've been
From staring at you girl
All I know is I don't want this night to end

Gonna cuss the morning when it comes
Cause I know that the rising sun
Ain't no good for me
Cause you'll have to leave

Gonna make the most of every mile
Do anything to make your smile
Land on my lips
Get drunk on your kiss

Clock on the dash says 3:35
There's plenty of gas and the night's still alive

And I don't know what road we're on
Or where we've been
From staring at you girl
All I know is I don't want this night to end

I don't want this night to end

No I don't want this night to end

he smiled as he sang the song, un aware that Atemu was listening, when the song ended he blinked and turned blushing madly, Atemu chuckled "I missed hearing that sweet voice of yours, Yugi", Yugi smiled and walked over, hugging his lover. Atemu smiled and nuzzled Yugi, cooing gently in the younger winged one's ear, Yugi smiled and ran his fingers into Atemu's hair, pulling the other into a very passionate kiss, their eyes closing at the same time, the kiss, though passionate was soft and gentle, Yugi moaned softly as Atemu tasted like foreign spices and pomegranates, to Atemu, Yugi tasted like sweet vanilla pudding and strawberries which to him, both were divine. As the need for air became too great, they broke apart, Yugi smiled "wow", Atemu chuckled at his little one's remark "I agree" he said before he turned to let Yugi finish. Yugi smiled "Atemu, can I ask something?" Atemu turned and nodded, "do you think that we could check on my friends...I know it isn't the best idea in the world, but I'm worried about them", Atemu nodded "we can see them tomorrow if you like, Aibou, that way I can at least notify your dear cousin that we will be making a brief appearence."

Yugi nodded and smiled softly "I think Joey and the others will be totally shocked when they see our wings", Atemu chuckled "yes, especially your blonde friend, Joseph", Yugi blinked "he prefers to be called 'Joey', and for some odd reason only grandpa can get away with calling him by his real name.", Atemu blinked "why is that, I wonder?", Yugi shrugged "not a clue, he's always been Joey to me", Atemu chuckled "and how long have you known Joey?", Yugi tapped his chin with a finger "hmm, let's see... we met in our first year of High-School so I'd say oh...four maybe five years, give or take a few months", Atemu nodded "wow, and is he loyal?", Yugi smiled "yeah, he's my best friend, he'd do just about anything to help me, and that's what I like about him, he's fiercly loyal." Atemu nodded "and what about you other friends?", Yugi sat down on the couch, "well there's Ryou, Malik, Tristan and Duke, I have a few more but those boys are the main group."

Atemu nodded again and sat beside Yugi "you also mentioned that Tea was a friend...until you admitted you were gay..", Yugi sighed and leaned back, "yeah I've known Tea since grade school and we were close, heck her parents were even going to let her marry me, but when I admitted I was gay, she told them to not let me near her, funny thing is, they still like me, because they know I am a good guy", Atemu nodded "at least they are good people", Yugi nodded and hugged Atemu " I'm so glad I found someone who is understanding", Atemu chuckled and nuzzled Yugi's hair lightly "you, my beloved Hikari are the reason why I am so understanding", Yugi nodded and got up walking back to the kitchen, thinking to himself.

Atemu sighed as he watched Yugi leave the room 'for without your light, my darker side would have emerged, you my darling have tamed the beast within me' Yugi then peaked from around the corner "so, what do you want for lunch?', Atemu smiled "anything is fine, dear-heart", Yugi smiled and lightly blushed at the pet-name "ok", he disappeared again and Atemu made a soft chuckle, he got up and went to his study, to notify Seto of their plans.

Meanwhile, Seto sat on his computer, working on a few company documents, his blue eyes never leaving the screen, though his mind was not concentrating on the screen, for it was wondering off worrying about his younger cousin, 'even though I know Atemu is capable of taking care of Yugi, I still worry..after-all he and Mokuba are the only family I have left..' he stopped thinking when there was a knock at the door, he blinked and looking up, seeing Yugi's high-school best friend, Joey, standing in the doorway, holding a bag of food, Joey smirked "I thought you might like some lunch.." the blonde stated with his ever present Brooklyn accent, which Seto never understood where the blonde pup got it, for Joey was indeed Japanese. Seto sat up and smiled lightly "thanks", Joey nodded and walked in "heard anything?", Seto sighed "not yet, though he is keeping me posted..I still worry", Joey sat down nodding, "I worry as well, I mean from what you told me, Atem is very capable of taking care of my little buddy but...", Seto nodded "I know", but before he could continue he felt a familiar dark presence enter his mind "he's got good timing..." he muttered aloud.

Joey blinked "who?", Seto held up his hand "hang on", he then focused on the presence and made a smirk /you have good timing Atemu, we were just talking about you/, Atemu blinked then his eyes narrowed /who are you speaking to, Seto?/Seto sighed feeling the slight anger of the other /relax, it's only Joey, now, what's up?/ Atemu sighed and then relayed his message /Yugi and I will be arriving in Domino tomorrow evening, he wishes to see his friends/,Seto blinked /alright, shall I let Joey know?/ Atemu made a slight nod /please do, tell him we will meet him and the others at the Kame Game Shop, around 10:30 pm. / Seto nodded and made a smile /very well, see you then/ as soon as he said that, the presence vanished from his mind and he shuttered, Joey blinked "what was that?, you totally spaced out..", Seto chuckled lightly "Yugi and Atem are coming to Domino tomorrow night, and they want to meet you and the rest of the gang at Grandpa's ", Joey's eyes widened and he smiled "alright!"

Seto laughed as he saw the blonde's actions, he then cleared his throat "you may want to go home, Joey", Joey stopped what he was doing and then nodded "later", he then ran out, Seto chuckled and then went back to work 'tomorrow is going to be interesting...' he thought

The next day arrived quickly and the gang headed toward the game-shop around 9 o'clock, Joey was really excited and so was everyone else, Ryou smiled "so do you think anything changed?", Joey blinked at the question "nah..Seto said that they look the same" Duke nodded ad they entered the game-shop, they waited with grandpa, as they heard a a sound of feet landing, they blinked looking at each-other "what the?" Yugi smiled as he came downstairs "hey guys!", Joey blinked and then he smiled "Yugi!" he got up and ran toward him, wrapping his arms around his best friend, Yugi smiled and hugged Joey back "I'm okay, really", Duke blinked "you've gotten taller", Yugi blinked "I have?" he asked, Atemu just laughed lightly, Ryou smiled "where have you been all this time?", Yugi looked down "hiding, to be honest Atemu and I had no idea how you guys would react", Joey let go and looked at him "react? to what?", Yugi sighed and his wings opened "to me and Atemu, being not human", Joey gapped and then smiled "human or not, you're still my best buddy, Yug' ", Yugi smiled "really?", Joey nodded "yep", he laughed lightly and Atemu smiled softly, nodding to Seto, who had just walked in with Mokuba.

"So the gang's all here?" Seto asked, Yugi nodded and then he looked to everyone "alright listen everyone, we have a situation..Tea's become a total psycho bitch and we need to stop her, but Atemu and I are the only one's capable of doing so", Joey nodded "I knew she was evil...", Tristan nodded in agreement, "she's mainly after Atemu... and you guys can see why", Ryou smiled "because he's down right gorgeous", Atemu blinked and then blushed slightly "t-thank you, Ryou", Ryou nodded and Yugi giggled as he sat beside his lover, "anyway we need you guys to stay away from Tea at all costs that means not even speaking to her, I don't want to lose my friends, just because some slut wants my soon-to-be-husband", Joey blinked "soon to be...wait a minute..you guys are?", Yugi nodded and showed them his left hand "yep, engaged", Seto chuckled "that's a nice ring..", Atemu nodded and Joey laughed lightly, he then got serious "what I wanna know is why..why did Tea turn on us?", Yugi looked down "I think it's mainly jealousy, she's jealous because I found Atemu", Joey shook his head "man that's just down right Twisted (1)" Yugi nodded "I agree with the mutt on that one, she's going a bit too far, just to get one guy"

Yugi sat back and sighed "it's not just that, I believe she's always been jealous of me, I mean..I'm kind-hearted and I don't hold grudges..", Duke laughed "plus you're cute for a guy and you practically ooze kindness and purity", Atemu smirked "hence why he is my lighter half, he is nothing but Light, humanized", Joey then looked to Atemu "and what about you 'Yami' ", Atemu chuckled "Darkness, in it's most potent and dangerous form, Yugi's light balances out my darkness, I'm not saying I'm evil, but I could become Evil if I lost Yugi"

After talking to his friends, to almost Midnight, Yugi and Atemu decided to go home, flying up into the night sky, Yugi looked to his beloved darkness /did you really mean what you said back there?/ Atemu blinked and looked toward his hikari /every word, without you..I would become evil and believe me...I don't want that again../ Yugi smiled and flew up next to him, his fingers intertwining with that of Atemu's /well don't you worry, I'm not going anywhere/, Atemu smiled and kissed Yugi's cheek /I'm glad/.
