Crimson Ruby Love

Chapter 6
Authors Note: From the feedback, the Shakespearean dialogue in the Yami/Yugi love scene didn’t fit so I hacked it out. I also took out the long, flowery sentences and simplified it too. The whole Nu thing didn’t make sense either so I removed that. I thought an Egyptian love poem would be more fitting for Yami and Yugi. It is a love poem written by Kiya, a lesser wife of Akhenaten's and the Mother of Tutankhamen

Also later in the chapter, astral travel is used. Here’s a brief explanation of what it is:

The ancients believed when people dreamed at night, their consciousness left their minds entering this body utilizing it a vehicle during their dreams. When a person is consciously aware while in their astral body they can journey anywhere beyond the bounds of time and space. This is called Astral Travel or an Out of Body (OBE) experience. When a person experience a separation in their astral body during a brief period in which the physical body is believed to be dead, this is called a Near Death Experience (NDE). Yet they awake again experiencing something mystical.

The pharaoh leaned against the trunk of a gnarled tree to catch his breath. Yugi saw sweat beads mixing with myrrh oil, trickling down the pharaoh’s bronze chest. The well-toned shoulder muscles popped out, its sweaty sheen highlighted honey against the dark bronze. His skin was toned with a perfect honey shine.

Yami’s hands reached for the buckle of his belt, a “click” heard when he undid it slowly. He removed it. The jewels upon the belt sparkled in the light. He laid the belt across the same lower branch that the Millennium Puzzle hung from. With the belt now gone, Yami’s fingertips tugged delicately at the kilt around his waist letting the clean, silken kilt gather around his feet.

Yugi also gently tugged at his tattered kilt, letting it fall to the earth on the cool soil. His figure was slender, and skinny showing no muscle definition. His bony kneecaps stuck out below his tiny muscled thighs, giving him a goofy build. In contrast to his skinny legs, his large boyish feet made him look even funnier and out of proportion, a lovable freak of nature.

~May I breathe the sweet air that issues from thy mouth~

Yami embraced him lovingly. Yugi felt their chests rising and falling together. They breathed in synchronicity. As he breathed, Yugi smelled a pleasant scent.

“You smell sweet…” murmured Yugi.

“Thanks. I always try to smell my best.” Said Yami. He studied how the sunlight hit Yugi’s bangs, producing various shades of gold. “The light really makes your bangs shine…”

“Thanks, but I’m not that pretty, really. I’m just your average teen who lives on the street.” Replied Yugi nonchalantly. He never thought highly of himself.

~May I behold thy beauty every day--that is my prayer~

“I think you’re pretty. thenthen again, you look like me, except I have a few more gold streaks in my hair.” Complimented Yami. He realized his attraction to Yugi, was based on the admiration of his own physical appearances.

“Maybe I’m somewhat of a narcissist.” Thought Yami to himself. He chuckled. “He looks like me, only a few years younger. Wonder if he’d let me kiss him?”

Yami asked.

“Of course!” Yugi consented.

Yugi lay sprawled on the fallen plumeria blossoms blanketing the grass below. The perfume of the blossoms seeped into his skin. He smelled as lovely as the pharaoh himself. Yami nuzzled his face into Yugi’s neck. Yugi’s fragrant scent filled his nostrils.

“You smell really good!” spoke Yami directly into Yugi’s ear.

~May my body grow vigorous with life through thy love~

Smelling Yugi’s scent Yami, kissed him again. As they pressed their lips together, Yami’s eyes met Yugi’s. They shined red. The red was so vivid, Yami felt as if he gazed into an ocean of vermilion water. The redness of Yugi’s pools made Yami’s arousal react more.

~Mayest thou give me thy two hands bearing thy sustenance~

Yugi was right. He needed to get into his body and free up his mind. It’d been a while since Yami enjoyed a full-blown erection. And it felt damn good too! He couldn’t stop now. The pharaoh’s fingertips tickled Yugi’s stomach. They made their way across the ridges of his of his ribs, moving up and down. Yugi quivered. Yami’s fingers traveled over his slightly rippled stomach.

~ May I receive it and live by it~

Yami smiled, making eye contact before kissing Yugi on his belly. Yugi’s plumeria scented skin once again filled Yami’s nostrils. Yami closed his eyes focusing on his scent. He teased Yugi working his way down until he reached Yugi’s member. He kissed every part, causing a bolt of pleasure to shoot through Yugi. His fingers tensed, grasping the wet cool soil beneath him. The bolts of pleasure heightened, as Yami engulfed Yugi’s length in the crevice of his sweet mouth. The way Yami’s tongue pleasured him masterfully made Yugi cry out in ecstasy. He felt his release coming. His soul catapulted itself out of his body, beyond Nut’s celestial body, the sky herself. In Heaven flew he kissing the stars themselves. Back in his body he cried out Yami’s name releasing his sacred seed. Yami drank deeply savoring Yugi’s taste, sweeter than the nectar of the earth.

~Mayest thou ever call upon my name and~

Yugi felt great! He was SO glad Yami made love to him. This was well worth it, and hot as hell. Tired from his release he cuddled in Yami’s arms. He smiled. His cherubic grin delighted Yami making him feel this lovemaking was great too. Being a quick learner, the zealous Yugi couldn’t wait to demonstrate his new acquired skills on Yami. His lips silenced Yami’s, making his body swoon in his thin arms. Yami’s body begged for more. Yugi knew exactly what to do.

Yugi’s hot, feverish kisses trailed from Yami’s face, down his neck, to his pectorals. Yugi blew gently on each of Yami’s nipples then bit gingerly on the pink nubs. Yami groaned feeling sweet stimulation. No one ever bit so softly, yet just hard enough to make his body cry out in pleasure just like Yugi did.

~It shall not fail on thy lips~

“His erotic IQ is higher than I tht,”ht,” reflected Yami to himself thinking. “Not bad for a first timer…” His lips curled into a faint smile.

Yugi’s eyes lit up like rubies in the sun. “I must be doing something right or he wouldn’t smile like that.” Thought Yugi to himself, jesting.

He teased Yami with more kisses, stopping at Yami’s source of passion. “Here goes nothing!” thought Yugi, mischievously. Over the topside of his member Yugi kissed him hotly. He worked his way under, while stroking the pharaoh’s jewels with his free hand. This dexterous combination of pleasuring Yami blew his mind away.

“His erotic IQ is DEFINITELY high!! Oh, RAAA!!!” cried Yami in his thoughts to himself.

Impressing Yami once more, Yugi took the pharaoh’s erection into the cavern of his honey mouth. Not as skillful as Yami, Yugi did bestbest to please his lover. Yami was pleased amorously, feeling his climax come. Coming, his soul shot violently out of his body beyond the heavens, past the stars into the searing heat of the burning sun, Ra’s heart. Slammed back in his body, he found himself again calling out Yugi’s name in orgasmic love, spilling his sacred wine. Drinking deeply, Yugi felt he tasted heaven.

They collapsed hitting the soft grass. Beads of sweat coated their tired bodies. For the longest time, listening to the birds sing, watching the light dance in through the canopy, they rested in each other’s arms. Eventually they drifted off to sleep from the late afternoon heat.

* * * *

After his fly bly body fell fast asleep, Yugi felt himself awakening within another body inside himself. Rising in that body, he floated weightlessly over his physical self. This body, made of pure divine energy or Light is called the astral, dream or etheric body.
Enchanted by the beauty of his astral body Yugi saw his form partly faded, transparent and ghostlike, illuminated from the inside out glowing softlutliutlining his astral body, shined a luminous aura of white light, its vibration humming gently.

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Yugi heard a musical voice echo in his astral mind. He turned around, surprisedsee see Yami too in his astral body floating besides him.

“Where…where are we, Yami?” said Yugi opening his mouth to speak, bewildered the thoughf hif his mind resounded all about him.

Yami’s etheric lips curved upwards. He grinned, his ruby eyes glowing playfully. “We are in the astral plane. This is world welt elt in before birth, and after death we go here. Some call this plane the afterlife or spirit world. We enter this plane in our astral bodies while dreaming.”

“Uh…then the world our mortal bodies live in is the physical world, or physical plane?” Yugi hovered above his physical body confused.

“Of course!” chuckled Yami amused by Yugi’s curiosity. “You know you are more than just your fleshly body, Yugi?”

Yugi rolled over in his dream body grasping Yami’s outstretched hand. “R…really? Why haven’t I been to this place before?”

The pharaoh’s wrapped his luminous arms around the youth. Both of them ascended up into the canopy gazing out onto the physical world around them from the astral plane above. Yugi noticed the same white glow that surrounded him enveloped all living things, including the trees, the plants even the birds who sang sweetly. This white glow, the life force in all living being, including gods the Egyptians called the Ka.

“You go to this place every night in your dreams, only you don’t remember it. To awaken consciously in your astral body…is like a spiritual awakening, realizing a dimension beyond the physical world really does exist.” Said Yami kissing Yugi on the forehead.

Yugi wanted to kiss him back, but someg stg stopped him, his mind. It irked it him when his mind did that. “Shame on you, Yugi…” his mind seemed to say. “You coaxed Yami to sleep with you. You enjoyed it, but how will Jounouchi feel once he finds out? Won’t Seto be heartbroken once he knows what Yami and you did?”

“Shut up!!” hissed Yugi, his voice echoing over the astral plane.

“Whoa, who are you talking to?” inquired Yami, perplexed.

“It’s nothing.” Said Yugi quickly, leaving Yami’s embrace. “We should wake up. The service starts soon.”

* * * * * * *

“I’m a slut who did what his body wanted. You have every right not to want me. Jou…nou…chi!!” cried the youth in his sleep, thrashing his body violently against the pharaoh’s.

“YUGI!!” The pharaoh awoke with a start, hugging Yugi tightly.

“Yami…” The youth opened one eye, than the other, feeling his cherubic cheek pressed to Yami’s heart.

“Yugi, on the astral plane after you cried in my arms, you tossed about lost in a nightmare.” Explained Yami, his expression full of worry. “Why don’t we soak ourselves in the pond so we may relax and purify ourselves?”

“Sure…” Yugi agreed.

Sheltered under the shade of the plumeria grove, the pair soaked their sweaty bodies in the cool, soothing waters. The golden lin lined bottom felt so good, like hands of silk caressing their tired bodies. They laid their heads on the pond’s grassy bank, lazily watching a few plumeria blossoms on the pond’s mirror surface. When the blossoms hit the surface, they sent out little ripples distorting the mirror images, which formed again.

“Why are you worried about Jounouchi rejecting you?” asked Yami, breathing in the water’s sweet scent.

Yugi fingers pulled on the soft grass beside him. “You know what we did.”

Yami sat up, ripples riding outward where his waist pushed the water. “Yeah, my mortals say I should feel ashamed, but my body loved it like hell. Let’s not say anything. Hopefully, Jounouchi and Seto won’t suspect anything.” Yami knew he lied to himself. Seto was sharp. He’d suspect something happened.

“Let’s not say anything.” Said Yugi back in denial. He never felt this sense of guilt before. Living on the street, he did what he did for survival. Morals meant nothing, but now they were everything.

* * * *

While Yami and Yugi soaked, neither of them said nothing, thinking only about they shameful act they committed.

“Listen ya pompous, arrogant, conceited, stuck up, egotistical Hem Netjer!” howled Jounouchi, chasing after Seto in the outer courtyard. “I’ve been chasin’ yer ass over an hour already!”

Out of breath, the haughty priest stopped on the cobblestone path to catch his breath. “Didn’t I tell you commoner, I’m Egypt’s greatest runner?” smirked he sheepishly, taunting Jounouchi even more. “You were dumb enough to chase me.”

“No I chased ya, cause yer annoying as hell and I’d love to hurt ya, where it counts!” Jounouchi slammed a fist into the palm of his hand, in an attempt to scare Seto.

“Hahahaha!” laughed Seto arrogantly, grinning at the honey haired blond. “Your IQ is so low you wouldn’t know where to AIM when it comes to male anatomy!”

“Ouch! Wan ian insult!” giggled Yugi covering his mouth. “Why not break them up?”

“This is way to amusing. I wanna see what they do!” said Yami delighted.

“Alright, Hem Netjer, I’ve had it!!” Jounouchi bounded right up to Seto, glaring at him wildly.

“Is that a threat?” replied Seto calmly, with a poker like face.

“RA-DAMMIT!!!” The hotheaded blond lost his temper, lunging at Seto ready to pu him him.

Seto smiled, stepping to the side so Jounouchi flew through the air, landing face first in the tawny golden sand over the cobblestone walkway. He lifted himself onto all fours spitting sand out from his mouth.

“Hehehehe!!” cackled Seto prancing about him. “When you spit out sand, your cheeks pop out and your lips and puckered, you look just like a goldfish! GOLDFISH!!!”

“WHAT’D YA SAY!? Prepare to face Jounouchi’s wrath!” hissed he standing up.

Grinning again, Seto took a few paces back, positioned right in front of a tree. Screaming madly, the blond charged at the high priest not aware of what lay in front of him. Seto jumped out of the way, allowing Jounouchi to slam into the tree head on. His body wavered for a few moments, before hitting the sand with a thud.

“How can he be so STUPID!?” exclaimed Yami. He leapt out of the pond running to where Jounouchi lay to help him.

“Yami! You’re NAKED!!” Yugi called out from the pond. But Yami didn’t hear.

Shizuka finished her prayers at the various shines in the outer courtyard, as Yami ran to Jounouchi. She stopped on the cobblestone path to see a naked Yami racing past her. She laughed to herself, thinking it was a daydream. In her clear view, Yami stood opposite of Seto, over her passed out brother by the tree.

“OH MY RA!!!” giggled she, realizing it was no daydream.

Yami faced her, showing her the full glory of his beautifully sculpted body. “Uh…what?”

“Look down!” burst out Seto, rolling on the sand in laughter.

The pharaoh did so. He turned beet-red feeling a sweat drop by his head. “OH MY RAAAAA!!!!! MY PARTS ARE SHOWING, HOW EMBARRASSINGGGG!!!!” cried he at the top of his l.
.

Yami’s cry woke Jounouch up with a start. “Don’t look Shiz!” shouted he sprinting to her to shield her eyes.

She laughed hysterically, brushing away his hand. “I already saw!” she said, smiling.

“Saw what!?” babbled Jounouchi, still trying to cover her eyes.

She giggled even more whispering into his ear. “His…man parts!”

“This is a nightmare, Ra! This is a nightmare, Ra!” prayed Yami to Ra rushing frantically back to the pond out of Shizuka’s sight.

“Did I miss something?” asked the temple priestess passing the second pair of pylons that led to the outer court. Bast followed by her side.

“Man parts!!” chuckled Shizuka girlishly. Jounouchi put a hand over her mouth to shut her up.

“Excuse me?” answered she.

“Hehehe!!” laughed Seto sauntering up to her. “It’s nothing a proper priestess needs to know of. Besides, did the Kher Heb approve of our stay for the evening service?

She nodded.

“Wonderful!!” sang Seto joining his hands. “We’ll need proper clothes for the commoners, especially that uncultured one.” He grinned pointing to Jounouchi who stuck his tongue out at the high priest.
