Ch 7
You're What?
Atem was the first to awaken that morning. He smiled softly as Yugi snuggled closer to him. He kissed his little one on the forehead, causing a small smile to appear on his face. Atem then started running his fingers through Yugi's soft spiky tresses.
"Mmm morning Tem," Yugi smiled sleepily as he laid his head on Atem's chest trying to wake up.
"Good morning my beautiful flower. Did you sleep ok?" Atem asked rolling on top of his petite lover, twining their tails together as he stole a kiss from him.
Yugi smiled into the kiss as he wrapped his arms around Atem's neck. "Yea I did…..Um last night was amazing, Thank you Atem," Yugi replied sliding his lips against Atem's. His tongue slid against his lips begging for entrance to his older lover's mouth. Atem compiled and opened his mouth for his younger lover to explore.
"I love you aibou," Atem said breaking the kiss
"I love you too. Um...I was wondering...if I ...um...could make you feel good as well?" Yugi asked him.
Atem smile brightened, "You want to pleasure me, my flower?"
" Is that ok? I know you said you like to be the dominant one, but I want to make you feel good like you did to me."
Atem captured Yugi's lips in another kiss, this time letting him dominate it. Yugi slipped his tongue into Atem's mouth and pushed his lover back onto the bed gently, as he ran his hand down Atem's well toned torso down to his beautiful ruby tail, stroking right over the slit where his member hid. Yugi kept rubbing his small soft hand over where his mate's member hid.
The small merman could feel his lover's cock hardening underneath his fingers. So he slipped his fingers inside, rubbing them along Atem's thick shaft as they kissed, stroking softly till it became hard and slipped out.
Yugi broke the kiss and pushed Atem on the bed on his back. He wrapped his small hand around Atem's member. "Wow, you're really big." Yugi mumbled when he saw how big he was.
It was more pointed toward the tip but still thick and it only got thicker further down. The head of his cock was a deep burgundy color, needing release . Yugi then licked at the leaking head of Atem's large cock then dipping his tongue into the slit. Lapping at the milky pearlescent of the bit of precum that gathered in the tip.
"Oh fuck baby that feels wonderful, don't stop please," Atem moans quietly, threading his fingers though Yugi's curly hair, tugging on it slightly.
Yugi swirled his tongue around the tip of his lover's cock. The smaller merman wanted to see if he could get Atem to scream the way he made him scream earlier when his lover deepthroated his cock. So he swallowed Atem's cock and relaxed his throat and tried to take all of his lover's cock into his mouth all at once like Atem did to him. It did not work. He started coughing and sputtering.
"Aibou oh sweetheart, you didn't have to try and take all of me in at once, you should have done it slowly," Atem said, brushing Yugi's bangs out of his eyes and kissing his forehead lovingly.
"I'm sorry," Yugi mumbled completely embarrassed
"You don't have to apologize sweetheart, you did nothing wrong. Just go slowly next time." Atem replied, smiling down at him. His warm garnet eyes were shining with all the love he had for Yugi.
Yugi smiled softly as he placed his lips over Atem's and pushed him back onto the bed gently. He broke the kiss and started kissing down his lover's toned body. Using his tongue he traced over each one of his abs, occasionally nipping at the bronzed skin, making Atem shudder.
The smaller merman kept kissing down his lover's muscular body until he got to his dripping cock. This time he started slowly and stopped when he felt he couldn't fit any more in his mouth.
While Yugi was sucking him off, the noises his smaller mate was making the most sinful noises he's ever heard and they were going straight to his cock
"Ooh f-ffuck baby," Atem groaned, his hips jerking disjointedly. He threw his arm over his eyes trying not to cum as Yugi increased his sucks.
Yugi's mouth was stretched to its fullest around the thickest part of Atem's large cock and drool was leaking out of his mouth. Atem's cock was heavy on his tongue and Yugi could taste the precum and the musk that was just pure Atem, coming from his cock. It was different but Yugi found he didn't mind. He continued sucking, making each suck more powerful than the last.
He felt Atem's thick cock pulse and dribble in his mouth. Yugi could taste the precum that was leaking from Atem's cock. He didn't mind the taste and found himself hardening at the thought of Atem cumming in his mouth.
The smaller merman was licking his lover's thick cock from base to tip, then taking the tip into his hot wet cavern. He flicked his tongue over the slit tasting more of Atem's seed that was now flowing down his pulsing shaft.
Atem gasped as Yugi flicked his tongue over the slit on his cock. Yugi smiled and repeated his actions ,flicking his tongue rapidly over the slit on his lover's leaking cock.
"Ooh gods baby that feels so good. Such a good boy taking my big cock into your mouth like that. You look so hot like this," he moaned softly.
Atem then grabbed the sides of Yugi's head gently. He bucked his hips softly as he fucked his smaller lover's mouth .
Yugi tightened his lips around the older merman's cock in his mouth. Atem's cock twitched as he fucked Yugi's mouth faster. The younger merman could tell his lover was getting close. He could feel Atem's cock pulse inside his mouth.
So he slipped his fingers inside the slit on Atem's tail and started to fondle his balls while increasing his sucks. He then started to run his tongue along the pulsing veins on his cock.
"Oh god -oh gods please! I-I'm gonna cum! " Atem screamed as he emptied himself down Yugi's throat.
Yugi drank everything Atem gave him greedily as he continued sucking Atem through his orgasm. The smaller merman pulled off Atem's cock and licked his lips of his lover's remaining release, looking Atem in the eyes while doing so.
Atem's eyes darkened with lust as he grabbed the smaller merman and flipped them over so Yugi was on the bottom and attached himself to his petit lover's mouth. As they explored each other's mouths one of Atem's hands traveled south to Yugi's hole. He could feel it was already slick and swollen with arousal.
As they continued kissing, Atem pushed a finger into Yugi's entrance to discover he was soaking wet. He started pumping it in and out a few times, teasing Yugi. He pulled his finger out and broke the kiss.
"Oh Gods", Atem please please." Yugi begged.
Atem smirked at him then started leaving burning kisses down Yugi's petite body as he fingered his wet hole. He leaned down and started to trace the fins at his little lover's slim hips with his tongue. The vibrations he was making go down Yugi's fin made his hole even wetter.
The sounds his little flower was making for him were absolutely sinful and Atem wanted to hear more. So he pushed two more of his fingers inside his tight little hole. Once Yugi was relaxed enough he pushed his tongue in alongside his fingers.
"Oh oh oh! Oh Gods Atem! Right there!" Yugi squealed as Atem brushed his sweet spot with the tip of his tongue.
Atem repeated his actions a few more times, making Yugi's warm , wet walls flutter as he continued to stretch him out. He slid out of Yugi's wet hole and looked down at him.
"You taste delicious. Atem grinned sinfully at him as he licked his lips, tasting more of Yugi's juices on his lips. You're such a good boy, so willing for me to fill your pretty little hole with my thick cock and you're already so wet for me . Gods you are so good, so beautiful." Atem mumbled, planting kisses all over Yugi's soft ivory curves
"Nnggg, please Tem, I need you in me." Yugi squirmed.
Atem drew him into another kiss, as his tongue stroked Yugi's. he lined his throbbing cock up to Yugi's dripping hole.
"Are you ready for me, my beautiful flower? Are you ready for me to stuff your pretty little hole?" Atem said, grabbing his cock that was dribbling precum, and rubbed it inside the wet folds of Yugi's tail .
"Ahhh! Ye-sss Ohhh! Gods, please Tem I need you in me so bad!"
Atem gasped as his thick swollen cock was enveloped in warmth, as he pushed in slowly. He gasped feeling Yugi's warm, slick, walls flutter around his pulsing cock. "I Love you my beautiful flower." Atem said drawing Yugi into another kiss.
As they were kissing Yugi rolled his hips into Atem. "I-I love you too-ohhh Y-you can mo-move now," Yugi stuttered out as he felt Atem slip deeper inside him.
"Oh fuck! Oh gods yes more!" Yugi gasped, placing a hand on his lower stomach just above where his tail starts, as he felt Atem's cock swell and twitch inside him.
Atem smirked wickedly at the little merman underneath him as he angled his hips down and slammed his tail down on their bed, the force making him slam up into his little one's sweet spot hard.
"Ahhhhh! Oh gods! therehtherethere!" Yugi screeched arching his back in pleasure at the new angle his lover was slamming into him at.
Once Atem had found his sweet spot he gripped Yugi's slender hips and started rutting into him at a rapid pace.
"Oh fuck sweetheart your so damn tight." Atem groaned.
"And you're- realy- ohhhh gods yes Tem!- fucking big." Yugi moaned, throwing his head back in ecstasy.
Atem grinned when he noticed the outline of his cock appear in Yugi's stomach every time he thrust deep into his little one.
"I love the way your perfect hole swallows my cock. You're such a good boy letting me stuff your tight little hole like this." The older merman groaned as he shifted his hips and angled them to the right. He then pulled out slowly, his thick cock sliding along Yugi's soft wet walls.
Atem then snapped his hips forward and slammed into Yugi's prostate hard. Setting a rapid pace he continued the rhythm of pounding into his little one's slick hole faster.
" Oh Oh Oh! Tem! More!" Yugi squealed, closing his eyes, pleasure coursing through his body.
"Oh gods you feel so good baby. It's like you were made for my cock," Atem groaned as he bit his little lover's neck and shoulders, leaving behind small dark bruises.
Atem gripped Yugi's slim hips, pulling his thick dripping cock out of the smaller merman completely and then slammed back in hard, setting a quick fast pace
"Ohhh ohh yes ahhhtem!" Yugi screamed, electric sparks shooting up his spine. He arched his back, wrapped his tail around Atem's.
As the older merman continued to thrust into him, the smaller merman clung to Atem and dragged his nails down his lover's muscled back leaving behind raised red lines, making the older merman moan and push into him deeper.
"Ohhh Fuck Oh fuck I'm-I'm close!" Atem moaned as he pulled out till just the tip was inside and he slammed back into Yugi harder than before, setting a brutal pace, his hips bucking disjointedly.
"Oh Gods Yugi I'm gonna cum!" Atem moaned as he started bucking his hips wildly, pounding into Yugi's sweet spot over and over . He felt Yugi's scorching walls clamp down around his swollen cock.
"Ohhhh Ra Yugiii!" Atem roared as the band in his stomach snapped and with one last powerful thrust he emptied his warm seed into Yugi's heat filling him up full.
Yugi felt himself being filled completely with a wave of thick warmth that was Atem's seed. "Oh fuck! Oh fuck! Tem Yes! Yes!" Yugi screamed as he felt the muscles in his stomach tighten, his walls constricted around Atem's cock making him cum inside Yugi once more.
His whole body shook with his orgasm as he came between their tails and stomachs.
Atem's arms shook and he collapsed on top of Yugi. He rolled off of his small lover and took him into his arms, his softened cock slipping out of Yugi's hole. He smirked when he saw a small river of his cum dripping out of Yugi's glistening hole.
They lie there for a few minutes catching their breath and just basking in the afterglow, sharing short sweet kisses. They relaxed for a little bit longer before the taller merman got up, scooping Yugi into his strong arms.
"Sweetheart it's getting late, we have to go back because if we don't then I'm pretty sure my parents will send Mana and Mahad out to look for us, and if we lie here in this bed any longer I might make you a permeate part of it."
"I have no problem with that, just as long as you carry me. I'm tired, my tail is sore and I'm full of your seed," Yugi giggled, laying his head on Atem's shoulder as he began to swim home.
Atem chuckled and kissed him sweetly. "Very well, my flower. I will carry you back home."
"Hey Atem?"
"Hmm yes little one what is it?" Atem asked, looking down at the smaller merman in his arms.
"What's going to happen when we get back home?" Yugi asked, looking up at Atem.
"Well I am going to tell my parents that you are now my mate," Atem said proudly as he leaned down to kiss the younger merman in his arms.
"You will also have lessons just like me. Now that you are my mate you will have to sit in on meetings with me. As I will be taking the throne one day. That is part of being a ruler."
"Father will also want to have a celebration to show the kingdom that I chose you as my mate and then my parents will arrange a party for us kinda like a wedding. And there will also be big celebrations for both of our birthdays. Don't worry so much, my parents already think you're adorable and sweet. they will be thrilled when they learn you are part of the family now," Atem explained to Yugi.
Once they got home he requested a meeting with his parents and they were thrilled to know that Atem and Yugi were now mates. After visiting his parents and talking with them for a bit they went to find Mana and Mahad. They found them in the garden.
Mana had a huge smile on her face when she saw Atem and Yugi.
"Where did you two go last night? I wanted to know what happened. I asked your parents and they said you went for a swim with Yugi. So what, did you two go somewhere special last night to make out?" She said cracking up. She fell silent when she saw the mortified look on Yugi's red face.
"I was just about to tell you that I made him my mate last night. Before you rudely interrupted me," Atem chuckled.
"I'm so happy for you!" She squealed happily, hugging both of them.
"So what happened on the surface? All I knew was that Yugi handed me Gandora asking me to hold him and that he was going to help you. Then the next thing I know is there was blood on the surface and I don't see you two anywhere. So I swam back home. I didn't want to be anywhere near where I knew sharks were being drawn to."
"Then after a while I went back outside and I didn't see any sharks anywhere. So I swam back to the palace to see if you and Yugi came back yet. I asked your parents and they told me that you and Yugi were fine but that Yugi was extremely upset and you were going for a swim to calm him down."
Atem told her everything that happened after Yugi handed her Gandora. Yugi shivered just thinking about it. "It's ok, those men are gone and can't hurt you anymore." Atem mumbled against his mate's hair.
They bid Mana and Mahad goodbye before heading back to the palace to tell Atem's parents Yugi was now his mate and the future queen of Luxor. Afterward they headed toward their room. Atem lay down on the bed and pulled Yugi into his arms, snuggling him close.
After a few moments Atem felt Yugi's breathing even out, indicating that he had fallen asleep in his mate's arms. Atem smiled softly.
"I love you my beautiful flower," he whispered to the sleeping form in his arms, kissing the top of his head, before he too was whisked off to the land of dreams.
About two months later Yugi had begun to wake up nauseous in the mornings. Atem got even more worried when Yugi started throwing up and getting nauseous at his favorite foods. Atem didn't know what was going on with his little flower but he has also been very snappy lately.
Atem went to see Isis about it and she told him if Yugi still feels sick to bring him in after the party or if he gets worse bring him in right away. Atem thanked her and left to go find his little one.
He was getting worried now. He searched all over the palace and hasn't seen his flower at all. He was about to go find his parents and ask them for help, when he bumped into Mana.
"Mana have you seen Yugi? I can't find him anywhere," Atem asked her.
"Yea the last time I saw him was in your private garden. He was playing fetch with Gandora."
"Thank you Mana!" He shouted as he swam past her quickly.
When he arrived at his garden he found his little mate fast asleep, sandwiched between Gandora and what looked like a baby dratini with YUgi's arm holding her in place.
"So cute," Atem chuckled, smiling at the sight before him.
He swam over to him and lifted Yugi and the Dratini into his arms.
"Gandora it's ok I've got Yugi now. You can go to sleep now I've got him," Atem says quietly as he pets the large sea dragon on the snout. Gandora gave his hand a lick and swam off. He watched as Gandora swam off to the palace garden where all the other large palace pets slept.
Yugi seems to get tired more often than he used to. He started taking naps throughout the day. Atem thought as he carried him back to their room so he could get some sleep before their party tonight.
Yugi woke up just as Atem placed him on their bed. "Mmm Tem? What time is it?" He asked sleepily, opening a bleary eye to look at his mate. Atem smiled softly as he brushed Yugi's bangs back from his face.
"It's almost 5 o'clock. We have another hour before the party starts. Are you ok little one? You look very pale." Yugi gave him a look. "Well paler than usual."
"Honestly I feel awful. I've been nauseous all day. I mean I feel a bit better than I have all day, but at least I'm not puking my guts out like I was this morning . But the even weirder thing is I am completely starving. I want seaweed stuffed crab."
"Don't look at me like that. It sounds gross but it tastes really good! Ooh can you ask the cooks to add that to the food for our party?" Yugi asked him
Atem blinked at him. He was very confused, he didn't know what was wrong with Yugi.
"OK little one, since the party doesn't start for another hour I'm taking you to see Isis, you have been sick for a while. Something is wrong. You shouldn't be throwing up this much," Atem told him as he picked his little mate up, carrying him to the healing chambers. Yugi was about to protest till he saw the look in Atem's eyes and sighed in defeat, he knew there was no way he was getting out of this.
"Are you in here Isis?" Atem called out, swimming into the healing chambers.
"Atem? Yugi? What are you doing here?" She asked.
"It's Yugi, he's still not feeling well and he looks paler than usual. This has been going on for a few weeks about two months," Atem explained to her.
"Alright I'll have a look at him. Go sit on my table Yugi. I will be there shortly."
Yugi swam toward the back of the room and sat down on the exam table, waiting for Isis. He could see Atem talking to Isis. Then he was interrupted by Mana. They talked for a few minutes and then Atem swam back toward him.
"I'm sorry little one but I have to go and help Mana with something for the party. I'll have Timaeus escort you to the ballroom when you are done here," Atem explained to him, kissing him sweetly. I'll see you in a little bit, ok sweetheart?"
Yugi nodded and Atem kissed his forehead one last time. He and Mana waved to Yugi as they left the healing chambers.
"So why is Yugi in the healing chambers? Did you break him?" Mana cackled.
"Ha-ha you're so funny," Atem said dryly. If you must know, Miss nosey, Yugi hasn't been feeling well for the past few weeks. He's been throwing up every morning, and is constantly nauseous."
"What did you do?, get him pregnant?" Mana teased him.
"Don't be stupid mermen can't get pregnant," Atem scoffed playfully at her.
Mana grabbed Atem's ear and yanked it hard.
"Owww what's wrong with you that hurts," Atem complained trying to get her to let go of his ear.
"You're the one who's an idiot. You never pay attention in class. Since Yugi came here, all you do is stare at him instead of paying attention! If you had been paying attention then you would know that mermen can get pregnant just like a mermaid. It's rare but it happens! She yelled at him.
Atem stopped swimming abruptly and looked at Mana. " You're messing with me right? Haha that was a good one Mana you got me there," Atem said nervously.
He was panicking inside his head though. What if Mana was right? What if he did get Yugi pregnant? They have only been a couple for a few weeks. Yugi was going to hate him and want to leave.
"I'm going to laugh if Yugi finds out he's pregnant." She grinned at him.
"So why am I needed in the ballroom?" Atem asked her trying to change the subject
Mana grimaced, knowing Atem was not going to be happy about this. "It's 20 minutes till the party starts and Mahad is arguing with the servants on where everything should go. The main thing they are arguing about is the dancing girls. Mahad said no but the servants said that the council told them to have them dance tonight. she groaned. So we need you to make the final decisions.
"We go through this every year," Atem groaned, pinching the skin between his eyes. Forget it, let's just get this over with so I can see Yugi again."
When Atem arrived in the ballroom with Mana everyone was arguing. Mahand was arguing with someone from his fathers court about the dancers. Which Atem did not want. Some of the kitchen servants were arguing with the other servants who are usually cleaning the palace, but were instructed to help set up for the party.
"This is a mess," he said, turning to Mana.
"You're telling me. I listened to the bickering for ten minutes before coming to get you. I bet Mahad hasn't even noticed I'm gone." The mermaid laughed.
"Let's get this shit show sorted out. The sooner we do, the sooner I can find out what's wrong with Yugi." Atem told Mana.
The young prince got to work trying to fix what everyone was arguing about. An hour later the ballroom was all set up and they were waiting for the guests to arrive. Once Atem was certain everything was fine he sent Timaeus to escort Yugi to the ballroom. He would be glad when he could put a ring on Yugi's finger tonight.
It would be both a status symbol and a symbol of his love. He had it made with the colors of their eyes in mind. He was sure Yugi would love it. The band itself was silver with two hearts in the center. One amethyst and one Ruby with small white diamonds on each side.
Once His father makes the announcement that they were mated he would place the ring on his little one's finger. He had discussed this with Yugi earlier this month to make sure that he was ok with it and if he had any concerns or questions.
Atem was brought out of his musings when Timaeus, his personal guard, brought Yugi into the ballroom. He held his hand out for his little flower to take. The small merman took his mate's outstretched hand and was immediately drawn into a hug. Atem kissed the top of Yugi's head and led them to their thrones. Atem's father had one built for Yugi once he learned that they were mated.
They were still holding hands as they sat down. Atem's thumb was brushing the back of Yugi's smaller hand. " I missed you sweetheart. I'm sorry I couldn't be there with you earlier. I had to play mediator. What did Isis say was wrong?"
Yugi bit his lip as he started to cry which alarmed Atem.
"Sweetheart what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Atem asked Yugi, pulling him so he was sitting in his lap.
"B-BecauseonceItellyouwhatswrongyourgoingtohatemeeee!" Yugi sobbed into Atem's shoulder.
"Sweetheart I can't understand you. You are jumbling up your words. Take a deep breath and tell me again slowly." Atem whispered soothingly in his ear, rubbing his back softly.
Yugi took a deep breath and then spoke. "Once I tell you what's wrong you're going to hate me." He cried tears running down his face.
Atem lifted Yugi's chin with his hand and placed a sweet kiss on his soft lips. He wrapped his strong bronzed arms around Yugi's petite waist, hugging him close to his body.
"Now please tell me why you would think I could ever hate you. Because I'm sure you know that I love you more than all the fish in the ocean and I could never ever hate you. So why don't you tell me what you are so afraid of?" Atem mumbled into Yugi's soft curls, rubbing his back comfortingly. Yugi took another deep breath before speaking again. "I'm pregnant Atem. He said so softly, he almost didn't hear him.
"You're what!" Atem yelled. His eyes went wide with shock.
Yugi started crying even harder this time and tried to get off Atem's lap to leave.
"No, No, No, You're not going anywhere. I'm sorry sweetheart I didn't mean to yell. I was just shocked. I'm not mad, I promise" Atem said, hugging Yugi close to him.
The older male took a deep breath and spoke again. "So that's what Isis told you?"
"Yea, I was so scared that you were going to be mad at me. We have only been together for a few weeks and I didn't know how you felt about having children. I was going to ask you if we could adopt one day. But I guess we don't have to now. Yugi giggled, laying a hand on his stomach that had a slight bump to it now that Atem was looking he didn't know how he missed it before.
"I'm not mad sweetheart, I'm extremely happy. I can't wait to tell everyone," Atem replied.
"So you're happy I'm pregnant?" Yugi asked him, tilting his head.
Atem's face broke out in a grin and he grabbed Yugi's face gently and drew him in for a sweet kiss. "Yes, my beautiful flower. I'm overjoyed you are carrying my baby, "
Yugi smiled as Atem cupped his cheeks. "We're going to be parent's Atem," He mumbled against Atem's soft lips.
"That we are dear. You are going to be a wonderful mother, " he replied as he laid his large hand on Yugi's tiny bump.
"And you are going to be a wonderful father." Yugi smiled, kissing Atem sweetly.
"Let's go tell father that there is going to be a new addition to the kingdom. " Atem said, getting up and taking Yugi's smaller hand in his.
Yugi looked like he was going to throw up. He was suddenly very nervous to tell Atem's parents that he was carrying his child. His thoughts started going a million miles a minute, what if they thought he was a freak. What if they didn't believe him?
"Sweetheart, what's wrong?" Atem's deep calming voice broke through Yugi's anxious thoughts.
Atem could see the anxiety written all over his little moon flower's face. He sat back on his throne and took Yugi into his lap holding him, whispering reassuring words into his ear.
Yugi took a few deep breaths and spoke. "I'm sorry Tem, I'm just nervous. Telling your parents we are mates and telling them I'm carrying your baby are two different things."
The elder merman tilted his lover's head so he was looking at him. "Listen to me sweetheart. Get those thoughts out of your pretty little head. You have nothing to worry about, everything will be fine. I will be right here by your side I promise," Atem said, holding Yugi tightly in a warm, loving embrace.
"Thank you Atem, I love you and I'm sorry for all this. I'm still trying to process the fact that I'm male and I am pregnant."
Atem smiled widely at him. I'm sure it was a big shock. Did Isis say anything else?"
"I honestly don't know. I was in too much shock. '' Yugi laughed.
"I wanted to apologize to you." Atem said
Yugi tilted his head and scrunched his eyebrows. "Why? You didn't do anything."
"I'm sorry. I should have paid more attention in class. We covered the lesson on merpeople reproduction a few weeks before we got together. Both mermen and mermaids can get pregnant. It's harder for males but it happens. I wasn't paying attention when Mahad was trying to teach the lesson. I was too busy staring at the really cute merman sitting next to me."
Yugi cheeks dusted pink. He smiled sweetly and kissed Atem on the lips. "It takes two to tango and to be honest I wasn't paying attention either. I was also too busy staring at the really sexy merman sitting next to me.
Atem smiled widely. "We should go find my parents. They are probably out on the dance floor somewhere.
They wandered around the throne room for a few moments before Atem spotted his parents. They were talking with some friends of theirs from another kingdom. Atem recognized them as the Mazakies from Japan. He and Yugi were very good friends with their daughter Anzu.
Mr. and Mrs. Mazaki Its nice to see you again. I have not seen Anzu yet. Is she here?" Atem asked them.
Mrs. Mazaki smiled at Atem. ``Not yet she should be arriving soon. She and her boyfriend Tristen are traveling the world together and were just arriving back in Japan when we got the invitations for your party,"
"Oh, ok I guess we will see them soon then.,"Atem replied.
"Father, Mother, may Yugi and I speak with you privately for a moment? It's important."
The King and Queen looked at their son slightly worried but agreed and told the Mazakies they would catch up with them later.
They went into Atem's father's office to talk so nobody would bother them.
"Father , Mother, Yugi and I have some news." Atem said, grasping Yugi small hand in his, squeezing it reassuringly.
"Is everything alright?" his mother asked gently.
Atem took a deep breath squeezing Yugi's hand for courage. "As you know Yugi hasn't been feeling very well lately. Once I got done with my morning rounds I found Yugi asleep with Gandora and a baby Dratini in the garden. After he woke up he got sick a few times.
After he woke up from his nap. I asked him how he felt and he said he just felt nauseous so I decided to take him to see Isis. I was going to stay there with him but I needed to help put an end to what would have been a very long argument about the placement of everything and a few other things. Anyways after everything was done I had Timaeus waiting for Yugi to escort him to the party."
"I wanted to know what Isis said and what was wrong with him. I could tell something was bothering him. When he finally told me what was wrong I was in complete shock."
"What did you tell him, Yugi?" Atem's mother asked him, fearing it was something very serious.
Yugi took a deep breath. "I told him I'm pregnant. Isis guess I got pregnant on the night you made me your mate." Yugi explained quietly.
The entire room was silent. It was eerie, Yugi didn't like it. It made him nervous like everyone was watching him, judging him."
Then he felt a warm embrace surrounding him. Atem's mother wrapped her arms around him.
"Congratulations honey. I will help you through this. I know it's scary but it will be worth it once you hold that little baby in your arms. "
Yugi smiled into her embrace. He had come to love Atem's mother like she was his own. He was glad he wasn't going to go through this pregnancy blind.
A large tan was gently placed on his shoulder. "She's right son, you're not going through this alone. We will help you boys, " Atem's father said, squeezing his shoulder gently.
Yugi breathed a sigh of relief, smiling when Atem's larger hand grasped his own.
"See I told you sweetheart they wouldn't be mad a little shocked yes mad no. We aren't alone in this. Mana is going to scream when I tell her she was right and Mahad is going to tell me off and congratulate you. He likes you a lot, him and Mana think of you as their younger brother." Atem chuckled softly as he brushed a stray hair from his lover's face.
"I love you, Tem."
I love you too, my beautiful little moon flower, and I love our little starfish too," Atem smiled softly, laying his hand on Yugi's belly as he kissed him sweetly.
Yugi and Atem sat there for a little bit just holding Yugi in his arms. His parents already went back to the party. Atem just wanted to sit here with his little lover for a few moments, before they went back to the party.
"So when Isis checked you out did she say what gender the baby was?"
"No, I was in too much shock to ask."
"Fair enough," Atem chuckled.
"Are you ready to go back to the party?" Atem asked him.
"No, not really. I'm not looking forward to everyone staring at me, giving me fake congratulations.
"Are we telling anyone about the baby yet?" Yugi asked Atem.
"No, we will only tell our friends , everyone else will know soon enough. Father is going to speak to the council tomorrow about this and then he will start the preparations for another party to tell the kingdom. Atem explained.
"Another party? But why?" Yugi asked.
It's pretty much like a baby shower is on shore. By the way you will be getting two of those. Yugi groaned.
"Let me guess Your Mom. Mana, Anzu and Isis right? Yugi asked.
Yea." Atem replied, nodding his head.
" We better get back to the party, it's only a matter of time before someone comes looking for us."
"Yea we've been here for a little bit."
"Let's go, my love," Atem said, taking Yugi's hand in his and intertwining their fingers, as they shared a sweet kiss and then headed back to the party.
