Cards And Secrets - YAOI CHAP 16

"No Way?!" Yugi cried as I awoke. I frowned and opened one eye, Yugi was on the phone. "Me too! So has Joey! I guess we are all getting married then huh? So when is your big day? Huh? What do you mean in two weeks time! That's no time to sort a wedding, you have clothes, the cake, the invites, the transport, the rings! Jeez Ryou, Bakura must be in a hurry to get you married I swear!" He gasped as he was talking to Ryou and hearing the news. I smiled and snuggled back into my pillow, still watching him with one eye. "That's so beautiful, my ring is just the best Ryou, I don't know how much it cost, but It must have cost Yami a lot, I mean its gold, the Amethyst even set in it is beautiful, he said it matches my eyes, can you believe that? He is so romantic Ryou, honest, you should have seen us last night, Wow what a night we had together, he was so romantic, he made me dinner, set out candles and everything," He said excitedly. I felt so proud of myself that he liked the stuff I did. I just felt a soft glow around me and I guess this was what being in love felt like. True Love.

As he continued to talk I closed my eyes and remembered the lovely evening we shared together, I smiled inwardly knowing that hearing Ryou was getting married soon, Yugi would obviously want a wedding soon. Then I thought, oh jeez, that means that's a LOT of work to get done, not to mention Joey is going to want a wedding soon to all match, oh man this was going to a be a hard few upcoming weeks. I opened one eye and sighed inwardly. "Ok Ryou, well I will call you later okay?" Yugi finished, then saying a quick 'bye' left the phone and turned around and noticing I was awake he smiled. "Hey, was you listening to my conversation?" he teased. I yawned and stretched. He sat on my bed. I then smirked. "Might have been," I teased back. A devious look came into his eye. He then jumped onto my waist, making me gasp for breath. "You know, I have been thinking, how about we have our wedding soon?" he asked innocently. I coughed, then smiled, I knew this was going to come up.

"How soon?" I replied raising an eyebrow. He stopped and thought for a moment. "How about we get married in a month's time?" He asked innocently. "In a month's time?! That's very soon isn't it? Why so soon?" I asked. He smiled deviously again. "Well, I want to be married to you as soon as possible, So I can always be by your side," he replied. That was a smart and quick thinking answer. It totally caught me at surprise and I couldn't say anything at that to make him wait. I didn't really want to rush into it, this relationship felt like it was moving oh so fast, and yet It felt like we'd been together forever. I mulled it over in my head, I had to make him mine, this relationship would last, it felt so right and I knew what I wanted. Yugi. I stroked his hair gently. "Whatever you want my love," I replied. He smiled happily, knowing he had got his way. "But," I stopped him. He turned back to me, waiting for the condition. "Because you got your way here, I get a favour or decision later," I replied with a smirk. He thought about it and pondered it for a moment. "I don't like that smirk on your face, but sure, knowing I'll regret it later but okay, it's a deal," he replied and sealed it with a kiss to my lips. He then rolled off me and headed out the room.

I smiled knowing that this way I can get whatever I want, in return, this was going to be fun. Unfortunately, before I could think of anything, he called after me. "Now get up lazy bones, we have a wedding to prepare, not to mention you need breakfast," he called. I rolled my eyes and smiled. Yugi would make a fine husband for me. My eyes caught my desk, I got out of bed, walked over and picked up a picture of my father and Mana. "Oh guys, if only you could come to the wedding, sorry I stayed here, but I am in love and I don't intend on breaking it," I said to myself. My thoughts drifted, if only we could have been married in ancient Egypt, he'd be spoilt and worshipped, like he should be and nobody would dare touch him. A Fine partner for a pharaoh, If only my father could have met him. Yugi broke my train of thought, "Yami! Get up already!" Yugi called from downstairs, I heard the frying pan sizzling. I sighed and placed the picture back on my desk. I then got myself dressed and headed downstairs. Yugi placed a plate of breakfast in front of me. Eggs, bacon and toast. I dove straight in.

"Yami, I'm just going to the shop, I'll be back in ten minutes okay?" he asked as he picked up his wallet. I nodded gnawing at an egg, with that he left and the house was silent. I continued gnawing on my food. And no sooner he went, true to his words he was actually only ten minutes, before he returned with a shopping bag and wet hair, only for me to realise it was raining outside. I was in the middle of washing up. "Raining?" I asked with a slight chuckle. "Tell me about it," he replied at little grouchy. I placed another plate on the drying rack. I flicked bubbles at him and he giggled screwing his face up. He had bubbled covering his face and matted hair. "Well go and get changed then, you don't want to be walking around with wet clothes," I ordered. I placed the bag on the table and went into his room mumbling as he went. I smiled and continued washing up. After finishing, as I was drying my hands on a tea towel, Yugi walked back into the kitchen in clean and dry clothes. "I guess we're trapped here for today," Yugi mumbled unhappily. I raised an eyebrow. "You make that sound like it's a bad thing," I replied. He folded his arms and scoffed. "Well I wanted to go and get some wedding books, catalogues and stuff". "Got that covered," Ryou said As Bakura slammed the door behind them. Yugi looked over to the front door and smiled at Ryou. "I invited them over, told Ryou to bring his books and stuff, since I knew you an Ryou like to plan together, and that way me and Bakura can get some peace," I chuckled. Yugi giggled happily, clapping his hands with excitement.

Bakura was dripping wet, whilst Ryou was completely dry. "What's the deal with you? One is wet whilst the other is dry?" I asked with a grin and my eyebrow raised at Bakura. "I did tell him, but because I forgot a coat, and it started raining, Bakura gave me his, and so I am dry and poor Kura got wet," Ryou said gently hugging his wet fiancé. Bakura smiled at his lover. "It was worth it," he replied winking at Ryou who blushed cutely back at his boyfriend. Yugi ran over to Ryou, grabbed his wrist and pulled him towards the front room. "Come on Ryou we can plan in the front room!" He giggled excitedly. Ryou followed. I walked over, opened a small cupboard in the hallway and threw Bakura some clothes. He caught them and inspected them. "Hey these look like mine," He grumbled. I chuckled. "That's because they are, whenever you guys come over on a sleep-over drinking spree, you always leave some clothes behind, so my grandpa washes them and puts them inside here, so whenever you need them, you have them," I explained with a smirk. His sour face turned a smiled. "Well thanks," he replied, and trudged off to the bathroom to get changed. I put the kettle on and made us all a cup of tea, except Bakura who preferred coffee to tea, even being british.

"Thanks Yami," Ryou said as he sipped his tea and smiled. Bakura slumped down on the opposite sofa to which Ryou and Yugi were situated. He picked up his coffee and took a mouthful. "Cheers Pharaoh, as much as I hate to admit it, this is nice," He said with a smile, sniffing his coffee and feeling the warmth spread through him, by the face that he made, content and warm. "Bakura, please I have told you a million times, call me Yami," I added persisting my point again. "You got it Yams," He replied. I rolled my eyes. Well at least it was better than Pharaoh. "I like this one," Yugi said pointing to a suit outfit. Ryou pointed out the one he liked and they giggled as they discussed their dream weddings. Bakura smiled at his Fiancé and shook his head with the crafty smile of his. I too rolled my eyes but smiled at my Aibou's excitement. I sighed and got up, headed into the kitchen to cook our dinner. Ryou and Bakura planned on staying over for dinner and because Bakura knew that there was no way Ryou would be done yet, he decided that he might as well stay fully knowing Ryou and Yugi would take hours.

Four hours later, a perfectly slow cooked casserole was shared on the plates. As we dove into our meals, Bakura severed it down. Yugi and Ryou ate slower than usual as they were still picking out things they wanted. "Kura, can we have a huge cake for our wedding?" Ryou asked as we were eating. I raised an eyebrow, fully knowing what the answer would be. Bakura would give him what he wanted, because he knew if Ryou was happy, that meant he'd be happy later when he could lay into the little albino later this evening. I knew Bakura, far too well. As to my predictions, Bakura swallowed his mouthful and smiled. "Of course my Little Star," Bakura replied with another smirk, and with that went back to eating. I rolled my eyes at my own correct predictions. Ryou smiled and went back to the catalogue pointing to cake designs. Yugi looked at me and before he could ask the same question I knew he was about to, I nodded and continued eating, after watching a satisfied grin spread across his cheeks. So beautiful. Now they began thinking up the way the cake was to be. "So, you guys are sorting the weddings out?" I asked. They stopped and looked at me. Yugi chuckled. "No silly, us, Joey, and we'll ask Duke and Tristan to help as well," Yugi replied. "We're not allowed, its our weddings too?" Bakura asked with a slight joyous tone. "Well, you two have to sort your outfits, and the invites, we'll take care of the rest," Ryou added.

Bakura smiled again. "Hey that's fine by me," He said waving it off. Ryou shook his head with a chuckle. "Oh Kura," He sighed with a smile. Bakura fidgeted slightly. To me, the way Ryou sighed, it did sound a little, well, awkward. I ignored it after frowning slightly, finishing my food. Luckily for me, Yugi and our furniture, Bakura contained himself and kept himself under control, which I had to admit, I was grateful for and impressed. As I rose from my seat, Bakura swallowed a mouthful of his cola, and Ryou surprised us all. "Wouldn't it be great if we could have a baby Kura?" He said randomly out of the blue. Shocked, I lost my balance and slid back into the seat I rose from, only managing to steady the plate and cutlery in my hand. Bakura spat and coughed his mouthful of drink everywhere and Yugi sat and giggled at our reactions.

Bakura finished coughing before breathing and beginning to speak. I rose up again, regaining balance. "Whoa Ryou, that is a little, well, soon," Bakura tried to say it as best he could without making it sound upsetting or being downright rude. "Why?! He is allowed to dream after all, even I wish me and Yami could have a baby," Yugi said. That did it, I lost balance and slipped over this time, landing on the floor, I caught the plate but the cutlery scattered. I chuckled at the little one's dreams and started re-collecting the cutlery. Maybe it was something worth thinking about, but it still was a little soon. "We'll see Aibou," I replied, getting up and finally taking my plate into the kitchen and returning to my seat to listen to the conversation. "Well, I am not saying I wouldn't want one Ryou, because it would be, it would be interesting," Bakura stammered, tripping over his own words. "It would be sweet, having a little half Bakura, half Ryou about," Yugi added. I chuckled. I then thought about it, it would also be nice to have a little Yugi running around, it would be adorable, But its still a little too soon in my mind.

"Well I suppose I can give it a think, but we don't even know if we can have children," Bakura said. "Well I have heard some other men have had children, so maybe we can," Ryou replied. I myself thought it sounded very weird and unusual, but if Yugi fell pregnant, hell, it would be a miracle. "Well if it would make you happy, little Star," Bakura sighed giving in. I shook my head with a chuckle. This was a new nickname for the smaller albino. Well this conversation certainly took a unplanned twist, but never less gave me something to think about. It would be nice to have a child with Yugi, but I think that would be something I would talk to him about later on, when we were alone and that way I could talk to him in private.

About an hour later, Ryou and Bakura went home. I took Yugi to bed, tonight we could talk about the countless things I was thinking about. As we settled in my duvet together, and he snuggled up to me, I began to speak. "Yugi, I was thinking about what you said earlier, maybe we should find a place of our own, get married and then, we'll go from there," I said. Yugi fidgeted. I looked down at him. "That all sounds lovely, but I have a confession to make," Yugi started. I nodded. "What?" I asked gently. "Well I put that idea into Ryou's head," Yugi said. I chuckled. "That's not so bad," I replied. "There's more," he added. I raised an eyebrow. He breathed heavily. "Yugi, its fine you can tell me anything," I said concerned. "Yami, I think it's time I told you," He sighed.

I waited for him to continue.

"Yami, I have known since my mum left," Yugi said hugging me tightly, like I was going to get up and leave him.

"Known what little one?" I asked.

"That I can have children," He replied.
