*Hikari*: Yes poor Yami can't talk...yet...anyways. It's only on AFF now because the rating will be bumped up to R later on...once, you know, I add lemons and things of that sort. ^^;

Angelic*Demon44: Yami is smart...just, in this fic, he is VERY OOC...VERY. So yes, he will act childish, innocent ...usually how lots of people make Yugi...but he isn't really _stupid_ though. He just never learned anything because nobody bothered to teach him. ^_^ Yugi will change that!!

Brandi: Glad you like. Hehe, I thought the proposal was very sweet while writing it. And Yugi doesn't meet Yami at the mental institution, they meet differently...you'll see how later! Glad to know that you'll be supporting me!! ^_^V

Yugi-Chan: I prefer YamixYugi too but... Muahahaha...you'll just have to see which pairing this ends up as!!

Shade25: Well...here is what happens..

Mel Gods: I like YamixYugi most too. And, inevitably, a heart will be broken in this ficcie depending on what pairing this ends up as. [cries] But that is the way it has to be...I hope this idea hasn't been done before...I try to think of original ideas for my fics ^^;

Yugi blinked slowly, raising his head of the light blue pillow in waevioeviously lying in. He sighed, sitting up further and allowing the covers to fall from his bare chest and rest on his lap. A small blush appeared across his cheeks as he remembered the events of the previous night. Looking down at Seto, who was still sleeping peacefully next to him in the large bed, he smiled. Leaning down, he brushed a few stray brown bangs out of the taller's closed eyes and placed a small kiss on his forehead. Then, he pulled the covers off himself and stepped out of the bed.

Slowly, he walked into the bathroom and stepped in the tub, turning the water on for a quick shower. Once the water was the perfect he sudzed up a washcloth and began cleaning himself. Then he washed his hair and conditioned it before coming out.

"There," he said, slipping a towel around his waist and grabbing a wide toothed come off the counter. He ran it through his long hair, untangling the tough knots that had formed during the hair washing. "All clean and refreshed." Grinning, he exited the restroom and headed over to the closet, taking a pair of baby blue track pants as well as a white T-shirt and boxers from his side and slipping the clothes on. Then, taking a hairband out of one of the containers on the dresser, he put his still damp hair into a sloppy ponytail, still allowing his blonde bangs to fall lightly in his eyes

Yugi shot a glance over at his fiancé, who was still sound asleep. He amethyst eyes were bright and happy as he turned away from the cute sight of his lover slumbering. He closed the door gently behind him as he left the room and went downstairs to the kitchen.

The short twenty-year-old hummed to himself as he took out a few pots and ingredients. He allowed memories of the night before enter his mind. Sighing blissfully, he took out two eggs and cracked them, the yolk spilling into the ingredient bowl. He had no idea, up until then, how...pasionate...the brunette could be. Mixing the yolk and pancake mix together, he waited until the batter got thick and then poured small amounts onto the pan which was sitting on the heated stove.

Violet eyes widened and a squeak escaped their owner's mouth as two strong arms wrapped around his waist and smooth lips pressed against his cheek. "What are you making, love?"

Yugi leaned into the warm embrace, "your favorite," he answered, sprinkling a few chocolate chips on the pancake mix since he knew both the Kaiba brothers liked their pancakes with chocolate chips.

Seto smiled, "it smells wonderful," he commented. He pulled away, walking over to the cupboard and taking out three plates, silverware, and glass cups to set on the table when the time to eat came.

"Why thank you." The shorter placed the finished pancakes on a platter and handed them to his fiancé who placed it in the center of the table. He put the now empty pot into the sink, but not before sticking his finger in and running it along the sides, picking up any batter that had stuck to the sides. He stuck the finger in his mouth and licked the mix off.

The CEO walked back over to his smaller lover who turned when he heard him approach. "May this one have a sample?" he asked, leaning dowr a r a kiss.

Yugi giggled, standing on his tip toes and meeting the other's lips halfway there in a soft, loving kiss. He opened his mouth when he felt the other's tongue pleadingly flick across his lips. He moaned and brushed his tongue against the others, thus deepening their kiss as they both struggled for dominance...even though the battle would inevitably end with the taller as the victor. He sighed into the other's mouth, bringing his hands up and entangling themSetoSeto's neatly trimmed brown hair.

A loud snort was heard and the two immediately pulled away from each other. Yugi blushed at seeing who the snort came from and looked down, letting his hands fall from the other's hair to his sides.

"Mokuba! How many times have I told you not to spy on us?!" Seto snapped.

The raven haired fourteen-year-old burst into a fit of laughter. He walked over to the table, clutching his stomach, "Sorry, big brother. I couldn't help myself. I take it you two had a good night?" He raised an eyebrow with his statement.

Yugi's blush deepened to a wine red, "Mokuba..."

The brunette's face as well looked a little flushed, which only caused the teenager to laugh harder.

The tri-haired man rolled his eyes, his blush disappearing as he walked over to the fridge and took out a chug of orange juice. He listened as the brothers bickered, Seto stressing the point that privacy was something the younger had to learn more about. "Okay, you two, enough fighting. The pancakes are getting cold."

Mokuba grinned, remembering the actual reason he had come downstairs in the first place was because he had smelled Yugi's world famous breakfast cooking. He took his place at the table and grabbed his fork, positioning it over the fresh pancakes and stabbing the chocolate chippiest one he could find.

"Ever heard of manners, little brother? You should wait until we are all seated before you stuff yourself."

The blue eyed teen rolled his eyes and drenched his pancake with maple syrup.

Yugi laughed, "I swear, every day that rolls by, you two grow less tolerant of eachother."

Seto stuck his nose in the air, "that's because every day, he becomes more of a teenager."

The tri-haired man giggled, "oh come on. You were fourteen and just as unlikable once." He placed a finger on his cheek as he thought, "in fact...I think I remember when you--"

The brunette groaned, "okay, okay we get it!"

Yugi smirked and placed a kiss on Seto's cheek, "you're so cute when you're aggrivated."

The brunette grinned, "and you're so cute all the time, my koibito."

The smaller giggled and blushed lightly, "Seto..."

Mokuba groaned loudly, "oh stop being so lovey dovey. I'm gonig to puke up a flapjack, here," he joked. He stood, having finished his breakfast, and put his plate in the sink. "I'm going out soon, kay?"

Seto stood up, plate in his hands, "with whom?" he questioned.

The black haired boy shrugged, "just Rebecca."

"Aaaawww! How cute," Yugi laughed, rubbing Mokuba's hair in a brotherly way.

Mokuba swatted the hair away, "Yugi," he whined, ducking away while chuckling at the same time.

The CEO smiled at the sight. He sighed as his watch beeped. Walking over to the pair, he embraced the violet eyed one, kissing the top of his hair,"I have to go to work. I'll see you later," he said into his ear.

Yugi nodded, turning and kissing the other lightly on the lips, "love you."

"Love you too. See you two later!"

wat watched as Seto walked into the other room, grabbed his briefcase, and swiftly exited the house; pausing a moment only to buzz his limousine to the front of the house. Turning to Mokuba and placing the rest of the dishes in th dishwasher, "I'm going to go for a jog. I'll see you later, okay?"

"Alright," the younger answered, heading towards the sitting room to play video games.

"Say hello to Rebecca for me," the taller said before slipping on his running shoes and leaving the house.

~~~`

"What do you mean you still haven't captured him?!"

A black suited grey haired man gulped, "we know his location, Mr. Pegasus, it's at the Northpoint Crossing, but he has outwitted all of our attempts to capture him." He paused, "he is more intelligent than we have given him credit for."

Pegasus snarled, "he's got the brain of a damn kindergardener! How hard can it be?!" he screamed. "I won't have someone as unstable as 666 running around Domino City! If he injurs someone it will be my responsibility! Find him or else you'll find yourself jobless, Croquet!"

With that, the owner of the Complex pressed the button and ended the phone conversation.

~~~`

Yugi stopped a moment, resting against a lamp post and wiping some sweat from his forehead. Looking up to see exactly where he was. //Northpoint Crossing...I haven't really gone as far as I thought I had...// He staightened himself and tossed the bangs out of his eyes. Then he began jogging again, wanting to make it to the art museum.

He stopped in his tracks as he was passing the park. There, behind a clump of bushes, was the sound of crying. "What in the world?" He stepped closer, moving aside some of the branches and seeing a man taller than him curled up on the ground with tears flowing from his eyes which were closed tightly. He gasped. This man looked like him. His hair was the same three colors of gold, raven, and crimson and was done in the same spiked up style that he usually wore it in.

Stepping over to the man, he knelt down to the floor and placed an arm on his shoulder. He was shocked as the simple action caused the sobs to stop. Two scarlet eyes shot open and the man shied away, shuddering. Yugi shook his head, "sir, are you okay?" he asked gently, moving closer.

The taller's eyes widened and he peered suspiciously at the short male who was crouching not even a foot away from him. He flinched as a soft hand brushed against his cheek and into his hair. He was confused at why this man wasn't hurting him, like everyone else.

"Hey...are you alright?"

Unexpectadely, the man's eye narrowed and he stood up, bringing Yugi up as well and pulling the smaller next to him.

"Hey, there he is! Croquet, we found him!" A female voice said. "666, stop where you are!"

Yugi raised an eyebrow, //what are all these guards doing here? And...who...or what...is 666?// He let out a short scream as he was hoisted into the air.

"666, what do you think you're doing?! Put that man down and get back here!" The woman shouted.


The tri-haired painter suddenly understood. The man that he had tried to comfort at the park was the one called 666 and he had escaped from...somewhere. It couldn't be the jail...he wasn't wearing the uniform that most convicts wore.And...his eyes...though they were angled and mysterious, they were full of innocence. Yugi looked up at the man who was shaking his head as he continued running.

The taller man turned down and allyway and was horrified to find he was trapped. He turned to face five guards coming into the alley, each with self satisfactory smirks on their faces.

The woman who had yelled at him took out her walkee talkee, "we have him cornered in an alley. We'll tranquilize him and have him back at the Complex soon, Mr. Pegasus." She turned off the walkee talkee and rounded on 666, "666, put that man down and come here."

666 shook his head, fear clouding his eyes as he saw the guards take out their tranquilizer guns and point them at him. He wimpered, pulling Yugi in front of him as a sheild.

Croquet stepped foreward, "that's enough, 666. We won't hurt you if you just come with us." The man shook his head to what Croquet said.

Yugi struggled to get out of the taller's grip but his efforts were useless. The one holding him only pulled him closer and hid his face in his hair. //He's scared. I can feel him shivering. The poor man. I can't let them take him like this.// Turning around so that he faced the man, Yugi smiled kindly, "why are you scared?" he questioned. "They won't hurt you if you listen to them," he explained. The man shook his head, signaling that even if he did comply with their wishes and go with them, they would find a way to hurt him still.

Croquet stepped closer, "it's pointless to reason with him. He's dangerous. And even if he weren't, he can't speak anyways. Please, sir, just get away from him and let us do our job. We must get him back to the Complex."

"And what the hell is that?!" Yugi visibly saw the man flinch at the word 'Complex.' He growled in his mind, "this man seems harmless...and he is scared to death right now. What is this Complex place anyways?!"

"It's a housing place for the mentally ill as well as an expiremental institution," the woman explained.

//Mentally ill,// Yugi thought, peering up at the man, //he's mentally ill? And...he can't even speak...the poor thing.// Yugi took a step toward the guards, dragging 666 with him. "I'll give him to you, but don't hurt him. He's an innocent."

A fat guard snorted, "bullshit. Listen, kid, you don't know him. 666 is crazy and unstable."

"I don't care if I don't know him. I can tell, just by looking in his eyes, that he is not as crazy as you say. I can also see great anguish in his eyes; he is not treated well at this Complex place, is he?" Yugi asked, taking more steps closer to the guards.

Croquet snarled, "we treat how we see is appropriate."

"By abusing him?! By not even calling him by his name?! Is that appropriate?!"

The woman rolled her eyes, "666 doesn't have a name. He was left on our doorstep. He's a psycho little bastard that nobody cares for. His own parents even left him there, if that's proof enough for you, mister, that no one wants him. The only reason we keep him is because he doesn't have the use of words to protest against the expirements."

Yugi glared at them, tugging hard and finally freeing himself of 666's hold. //Nobody cares sfor him. But why?// "Take him now," he said, pushing 666 towards the guards. The taller man let out a scream as immediately, he was sedated. The short tri-haired man watched 666 slump to the ground. He was horrified to see the female guard put a leash around his neck. //If nobody will treat him right...if no one else will take care of him like he should be taken care of...// He watched 66 be dragged away by the guards. //...Then _I_ will. I'll take care of you, 666....// He paused a moment, hating that he had called the man by a number. Grinning, he decided to name the duplicate of himself. //I'll take care of you...Yami...//

Smiling and vowing to himself that the next day he would find and go to the Complex to visit who he named 'Yami', he began to jog back to the Kaiba mansion.
