I'm not sure if I am supposed to say this or not, but I have noticed that a lot of the writers on this site do say it. So I'm just saying it anyway... I do not own Yugioh. I don't own the song in this atory either.

I want to say a big thank you to AnimeAngelRiku and Chibi Kuriboh. Thank you so much Anime Angel Riku for taking the time to edit my first story on here. Also, thank you very much Chibi Kuriboh for letting me put the taking a life time conversation at the end of my story that is similar to the taking a life time conversation that Yami has with Yugi in Chapter 11 in your story Scars (I love that story!:). I really appreciate what you both are doing to help me with this.

It had been three months since the ceremonial duel. Yami, as hard as he and Yugi had worked to get his memories back from when he was the Pharaoh of Egypt, had decided that he'd be much happier spending his life with Yugi than he would be in the After Life with his family and friends from his Egyptian past, meaning an eternity without his little light.

Ever since Yugi had been rescued (by Yami, who was the cause of Yugi being trapped into the seal to begin with) from the Seal of Orichalcos, he'd been afraid of the dark, especially on nights with thunderstorms. And there was a humongous thunder and lightning storm going on tonight. In these nights, Yugi found he couldn't sleep. Even when there was only darkness outside, Yami would be there with him the second he sensed the boy's distress. After all, he was Yugi's other—darker—half, and they could feel each other's feelings if they let one another do so.

Yugi had always loved Yami more than in a brotherly way, but he'd always been afraid to tell him his true feelings—he didn't want Yami to not like him anymore and walk out of his life!

Little did Yugi know, however, that Yami actually felt the same way about his light. Yami had always been alone, even when he was Pharaoh; he'd never had a soul-mate by his side, a soul-mate that woke up in his arms in the mornings, which was why he always loved to go comfort Yugi when the boy was scared. Tonight, though, Yami decided that he'd had enough of not showing his true and full feelings to his light. Therefore, he was going to (if not tell him) show him how he felt through his actions. He knew for sure that Yugi was destined to be his soul- mate. Yami wanted him to feel how much he loved him, and he wanted his little one to wake up in his arms in the mornings; to wake up by his side, knowing how much he was loved.

And Yami wanted it now!

Every night I hope and pray

A dream lover will come my way

A girl to hold in my arms

And know the magic of her charms

'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah)

A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah)

To call (yeah-yeah, yeah)

My own (yeah-yeah)

I want a dream lover

So I don't have to dream alone

Yami walked through Yugi's bedroom door. His heart melted even more than it did before he walked in, when he first caught sight of Yugi's small trembling form huddled at the head of his bed. Yugi had his knees pulled up to his chest—arms wrapped around them—and he was shaking tremendously, tears in his closed eyes. He was so terrified that he didn't even notice Yami slowly and quietly approaching him. When Yami got to his Aibou, he just stood by the side of his bed with his arms down at his sides; tears beginning to form in his own eyes along with a small smirk on his face from the thought of being his light's sole comfort. He observed the state Yugi was in.

After a moment, he sat on the bed, ever so slowly so as not to startle his light, and reached a hand to Yugi's cheek to gently cup his face. At first Yugi tensed from Yami touching him so lightly, but then quickly relaxed and leaned into the touch. Usually, when Yami comforted Yugi during these nights, he just touched him in a brotherly kind of way. Yugi wasn't sure when he'd begun to love Yami more than a bother, but he knew he had for such a long time; and now, on this stormy night, Yami was touching him as a lover would touch a lover—not as a brother would touch a brother.

As much as Yugi felt comforted by Yami's touch, he was still shaking from the thunder and lightning. Yami leaned in toward Yugi while still gently caressing his cheek. Then he lightly kissed one of his tear stained eyelids before resting his forehead against his little one's. Yami nuzzled Yugi's forehead for a few minutes and then kissed the tip of Yugi's nose. He nuzzled his nose with Yugi's with just as much care as he had done with Yugi's forehead. While Yami was concentrating on showing his strong love for Yugi, he heard the almost inaudible whisper that escaped his love's lips after a few moments of doing this.
