Chapter 6: Love at Last

It had been several weeks that had passed and nothing had changed…in Yami and Yugi’s relationship, at least. Seto Kaiba and Jou had begun a tighter ‘fondness’ of each other, something Yami wanted so dearly.

Yugi was still astonishingly unsure of his feelings toward the Pharaoh. Whenever he was in Yami’s presence, his heart would speed and his breath would quicken…but his head would be a bundle of wires, not knowing were one confused thought began and another ended.

“It can’t be too much longer,” Seto alleged.

“Yeah, I mean, it’s been what…almost a month now?” Jou added.

“But he still doesn’t seem to be…I don’t know…warming up to me. In the way I’d like, anyway,” Yami groaned.

“Don’t worry.”
Seto placed his hand on his cousin’s shoulder.
“It’ll work out.”

Yugi sat in the courtyard eyeing the floor. He was late. No big deal, though. It gave him time to think…about the one he was waiting for.

‘I wonder what it’s like to kiss him…’
Yugi blinked.

Kiss? Yes, he was sure he would like the sensation but was he ready? Did he truly want it for the right reasons? He hated beyond hated doing things for the wrong reasons. It made him feel…bad. His hand made its way to his chest as he stroked the scar on his right. It was obvious Yami was ready but…

“Yugi!”

Said boy looked up to see the Pharaoh quickly walking up to him. Yugi stood.

“I am so sorry I’m late. I just got caught up in a conversation and didn’t realize the time.”

Yugi smiled and shook his head.
“It’s no big deal. Besides, I just got here, too.”
That was a lie but he didn’t want to make Yami feel bad.

Yami smiled back.
“Shall we, then?”

Yugi nodded as they started their walk.

“So, who were you talking to?” Yugi asked.

“Oh, just Seto and Jou.”

“Really? I haven’t seen Jou in a while. How is he doing?”

“Fine. He and Seto have quite the relationship going.”

Yugi looked off to the side.
“Yes…I suppose they do.”

“What have you done, today?” Yami asked the shorter.

“Mmm, nothing too much. I went to see Dalila.”

Yami again smiled.
“You’ve been going to see her a lot lately. You and her are really close, huh?”

Yugi chuckled.
“I guess. She’s the first person that I remember meeting. She’s really sweet and she’s very grateful about her job here in the palace.”

“Well, I’m just glad that she enjoys it.”

Yugi nodded.

“So…how have you been?”

Yugi pondered what to say.
“Fine.”
‘Well that was blunt,’ he scolded himself.
“I’ve been thinking a lot.”

“About what?” Yami inquired.

“A bunch of things. Oh, hey look! That bush over there.”

Yugi ran over to a white rose bush that had just begun to bloom.

“They’re gorgeous,” Yugi praised as he felt the soft petals of a flower.

Yami watched the other admire the blossoms. He was so sweet and so innocent much unlike himself which was why he loved him so.

Yugi felt a warm touch on his hand. He looked up to see the face of the Pharaoh, staring at him intently.

Yugi blushed under the watchful eyes that were darkness and shadows.

Yami took the small hand in his own and slowly lifted it to his face he closed his eyes and rubbed the silk like skin across his cheek.

“Yami…what…”
Yugi was silenced as he felt another hand on his own cheek. He wanted to melt into the ever so warm touch but his mind was screaming for him to get out of the situation before he was hurt again.

‘Again?’ he thought to himself.

“Wait,” he whispered.

Yami looked back.

Yugi was trying to come up with something to say but his mind was just a blank slab.
“I…I told…uh…Dalila that I would…bring her…some…shoes.”

‘Shoes?!’ his mind yelled.

Yami’s heart was crushed. He understood that Yugi was trying to get out of the present circumstances and that hurt him to an extent he never new. But he refused to show it.

Yami smiled and kissed Yugi on his brow as he let Yugi’s limbs go.
**

“He seems like a good man,” Dalila said as she sat next to her long time friend.

“He is. It’s just…I don’t know if I’m ready. I mean, I don’t really know him all that much yet.” Yugi almost whined while stroking his scar once again.

Dalila sighed.
“You rely on your mind too much. It’s unhealthy to your soul if you don’t listen to your heart. It’s been almost one month. You must know quite a bit about him by now. You can’t wait forever, Yugi. Besides,” she smiled mischievously, “I’ve seen the look you get when you’re with him.”

Yugi blushed.
“What?”

Dalila giggled.

“What do you mean?”

“I mean that you get this look of…well, love every time he enters the room. Don’t deny it. You care for him.”

Yugi looked at the floor in thought.
‘Do I? I know I like him but…love?’
“I just don’t know. What do I do?”

“Give me your hand.”

Yugi looked at her but obeyed the yielding command.

Dalila took his hand and placed it over his heart.
“Feel that?”

Yugi nodded in confusion.

“Every thought has its own beat, its own rhythm. What is this one telling you?”

Yugi again looked at the floor. He closed his eyes as the soft pitter patter thumped against his palm.
His mind seemed to open as a wave of new emotion came to him in his stomach. His heart sped up in pace as these feelings over powered him. Then the image of Yami appeared before his closed eyes. His toned arms, legs, abdomen…his eyes dark and mysterious…his smile brightening his hard face…his lips……those rosy lips outlining his mouth which he guessed was hot and exotic like no other.

Yugi opened his eyes.
“I…”
Was it true?
“I…love him.”

Dalila smiled down at him. She lowered her head to his ear…
“He’s waiting for you…”

Yugi’s eyes widened as he gasped slowly. He looked into her eyes, almost all knowing. He gave her a large hug.
“Thank you.”

“You should go.”

Yugi nodded, blushing like mad, as he jumped off the bed and ran from the room.
**

Yami sat on the bed, his back to the wall.
‘I don’t want to scare him off but how much more of this heart break can I take?’

The door to the room opened and closed.

Yami opened his eyes to see the core of his thoughts standing at the doorway.

The Pharaoh did not see the hand movement behind the boy’s back as he softly locked the door.

“You’re back late. Where did you go?”

Yugi didn’t answer as he ascended toward the bed.

Yami folded his legs underneath himself as he sat on his heels.

“Yugi…are you alright?”

Said young man crawled up on the top of the bed as he stood on his knees and walking as such to the other occupant.

Yugi stood taller than the other as he looked down into the Pharaoh’s face of despair and hopelessness.

Yami looked into pools of desire and hunger, his breath quickening.

Yugi brought his hands up to cup the other’s cheeks. He took a last look into the eyes of his king before lowering his head, pushing their lips against each other.

Yami closed his eyes. Yes. This is what he wanted. What he needed. What he craved beyond anything else.
He could feel Yugi’s wandering tongue against his lower lip. He complied without an ounce of hesitation as he battled for dominance. Yami leaned himself onto his knees so he was the taller in the war causing the other to admit defeat and letting himself be taken over.

Yami could feel small hands on the bottom of his shirt lifting up. Getting the hint, he broke the kiss and lifted his arms to help in the removal of the offensive clothing. After the task done, he started on the other’s top piece. Yugi repeated the act as he lifted his own arms up, letting the chemise lift over his head and be thrown across the room.

Yami then attacked the light’s mouth again, his tongue exploring every crevice of every corner. He pulled away but set his lips to work on Yugi’s neck, Yugi tilting his head to let the other have easier access as he took small gasps of pleasure, his eyes closed in their own.

Yami’s mouth wandered to the backside of Yugi’s neckline as his lips brushed over a rough scar. He started worrying the area as his right hand made its way to Yugi’s back, tracing other wounds. His left was traveling across Yugi’s chest when he came upon the blemish he always caught Yugi stroking. Yami let his hand travel down the scar and whatever meaning it held for the little one’s past.

Yugi was now getting restless as he started on Yami’s pants rope belt.

Yami smiled in the middle of his antics as he could sense Yugi’s want and aided him in the chore, then again on Yugi’s, letting their sarongs fall. He looked into Yugi’s eyes again. So full of emotion and now glazed over with lust. He smirked as he again kissed his lover in the process of pushing his back against the bed, Yami straddling the body under him. Having the boy underneath him like that gave him a sensation like no other. He could feel the chills racing down and up his spine. He removed his lips as he started caressing Yugi’s chin, cheeks, nose, brow…and whispering a question that he was terrified of the answer.
“…A…Are you……sure?”

Yugi opened his eyes, so glazed over with the lust and undying need, as he wrapped his arms around Yami’s head and pulled him closer and bit a small piece of his shoulder.

Yami felt jolts of undefined pleasure waking areas of his body and numbing others.

Yugi bit slightly harder as Yami let out a cry. He released Yami’s skin as he kissed the now red spot, claiming the man.
He looked into the panting face he loved so dear and nodded.
“I’m sure.”

Yami growled as he again attacked Yugi’s neck and made his way so he nipped Yugi’s collar bones. He moved even further south as he squeezed Yugi’s nipple between his teeth.

Yugi gasped at the shock that ran through his stomach and radiated into the rest of his body. He moaned as Yami’s soft wet tongue made its way down to his abdomen where he placed damp kisses where ever he could reach.

After he was done torturing his little light, he made his way up again, using the same tactics, until his face was face was just above Yugi’s. Both were panting, Yugi mostly, and gazed in each other’s eyes. Yami leaned down and again kissed Yugi’s petal soft lips as he penetrated the innocence.

Yugi’s closed eyes clenched and he moaned into the mouth of the other who was trying his best to comfort. Once inside, Yami stayed still so Yugi could get used to the intrusion.

Yugi wrapped his arms around Yami’s back as his nails bit into the man’s back as more conformation that he was Yugi’s and only Yugi’s. The tension in his muscles started to release as he calmed slightly.

Once the worst part was over, Yami grinned as he started to pull out of the other and crashed back in causing a coursing lightning bolt to shoot through both boys’ bodies as they screamed.

Yami again pulled out and pushed back in causing the same reaction. His movements became faster and more pleasurable as he continued hitting Yugi’s pleasure spot. His erection became tighter and more painful as the minutes wore on. Finally, after what seemed hours of bliss filled ecstasy, they both came, Yami into Yugi and Yugi onto Yami.

Yami dropped onto Yugi’s chest, both sweaty and tired but happy like never before. Yami rolled of to the side as he slipped out of Yugi and took his partner into his warm embrace.

“Yami…I love you.”

Yami smiled as he kissed Yugi for the last time that night before whispering back, “I love you, too, my angel.”

They both fell into a deep slumber that was quieted by the gods themselves.

The curtains from the balcony flailed as a chilling wind blew through. The wind whistled and shrieked as it flew in and around the slumbering lovers.

Yugi squirmed under the chilliness as the gust seemed to sparkle with a power unknown.
