Author's Note: I'm back! This idea popped into my head last night and I just couldn't resist! Fair warning: It will likely not be updated daily until "Where I Belong" is finished. I hope you all enjoy this chapter!

Atem often found himself awake in the middle of the night. Yugi would always be asleep, so he took to wandering the corridors of their mind, marking doors he'd gone through, and exploring new ones- both in his and Yugi's mind. Tonight he was looking through Yugi's subconscious, trying to find something to occupy him. He came to a long hallway deep in his mind that, from the looks of it, contained his desires. so deeply hidden that he knew it wouldn't even show up in his dreams. The last door was the only one without a mark. So, with nothing to lose, he went inside.

What he found shocked him to the core.

It was a nursery with a crib, mobile, changing table, rocking chair, closet, dresser, and dozens upon dozens of toys.

For a moment he paused in the doorway, unsure of what to do now.

The nursery seemed to be empty. He looked around and ensured that it was, before stepping inside. Everything still looked the same. But he couldn't help wondering why this was here in the first place. What had sparked it's presence here? He ran through his memories of everything they had been through together, but nothing stood out. There had to be something in here that could answer his question. So he decided to go looking for it. There were clothes and diapers, pacifiers and books, but nothing that seemed to tell him anything.

Nothing, that is, until he found a small picture hidden in the dresser.

He picked it up and looked at it, suddenly getting all the answers he needed. This room had been here long before he had even met Yugi. The picture had a newborn Yugi being held by his parents, with his grandfather standing with them. Maybe this was his only way of remembering them, thought Atem. He sat down in the rocking chair, thinking to himself.

What was he going to do now? Now that he'd found this place he couldn't very well forget it. There had to be something he could do. And that's when he thought of it. Maybe he could show him this place in his dreams and see what happened. So that was exactly what he did.

He went up to the door that held his dreams and then projected the image of the nursery there. Then, he kept the door open just a crack so he could watch the reaction.

Yugi's sleep before this had been black and dreamless, but now with a burst of color there was a nursery there. Yugi stepped forward. There was something strangely familiar about this room. The walls were light blue with clouds painted on them. The crib was against the back wall, with the bookshelf across from it. The closet was on another stretch of wall, opposite the changing table and dresser. The rocking chair was shoved into one corner, and stuffed animals were strewn all over the carpet. He picked up the nearest one. It was a soft stuffed Kuriboh. He smiled and hugged it to his chest, then started looking around the room.

Everything seemed to be bigger than normal. But maybe that was because he was so short. He stepped toward the crib and let down the side. He didn't really know what he was doing or why, but for once he didn't care- that was the joy of it being a dream. He got inside and put up the crib side. When he looked down at himself he realized he was only wearing a short blue shirt and a diaper. He looked around the room and saw different stuffed animals around the crib. There was a watapon, a dark magician, the Kuriboh he had in his hand, and a Gazelle, the king of mythical beasts. He crawled over to where the dark magician plush was and started playing with it, giggling to himself. Until he turned around, he didn't notice that there was a pacifier sitting between the Antennae of his watapon. When he saw it, he eagerly reached for it and put it in his mouth, sucking on it happily.

For a long while, Atem watched him play, marveling at how relaxed he seemed to be. It was like someone had come in and taken all the cares from his shoulders. He seemed perfectly content, and Atem couldn't have been more excited for him. As much as he wanted to come out and say something, he held back because he didn't want Yugi to be embarrassed. So he stayed to watch instead.

Yugi played for a while until he got bored. When he put his dark magician down he realized that he had to go to the bathroom- badly. He stood up and tried to unlock the crib, but it seemed to stretch until it was was just barely out of reach. He realized then that there was nothing else he could do. He was all alone. so he sat down, held his Kuriboh in his arms and waited.

He looked down at himself and stared at his diaper. It wasn't anything special, just a regular one with duel monsters embroidering it. He wondered to himself how he was going to get changed after this, because he couldn't hold it for very much longer. So he closed his eyes and started thinking about things that made him happy. It relaxed him enough that he finally started wetting his diaper. At first he couldn't believe that he had actually done that, but then he realized that he didn't really mind at all. He started to crawl over to where the other stuffed animals were, cooing quietly to himself. It wasn't until a few minutes later that he started getting uncomfortable. He squirmed around, trying to find a comfortable position, but couldn't. Unconsciously, he started to whimper, and tears began to form in his eyes.

Atem was unable to stand by any longer and quietly came through the door. Yugi looked up at him, eyes wide and cheeks the brightest shade of red.

"It's alright." Atem said soothingly. "Let me help you."

Yugi let his guard down for once and let his most trusted friend change him. When it was over, Atem was about to explain what he had found when Yugi woke up.
