Dousing the Flame

Tango

A/N: I'm completely stuck on the next chapter for "From the Black." So for the time being, I'm going to keep updating / revamping this one. I'm going to try and finish moving this one over within the next week(s). When that is done, I hope I will have a clue as to what I'm going to do with the next chapter in "From the Black." 

Estrellalover and SyraTsukiano Thank you! I appreciate that. I'm having lots of fun revamping this too. It's fun and sometimes cringe-worthy to go back to some of my first stories. *Giggles*

Enjoy and please comment and vote. They are appreciated to no end!

/Thoughts/

Yugi licked his dry lips and filled his lungs with a few deep breaths before beginning the song again. Mana's chocolate brown eyes were wide and intently watching her brother. Aziza looked between Yugi, Yami,  and her excitable daughter next to her. To describe her as confused would be an understatement. What could have gotten her daughter so riled up? 

Towards the middle of the song, Mana pointed at Yami's hand. His long digits twitched and curled. Yugi felt Yami breathe in deeply before releasing it . Amethyst pools brimmed with tears as he continued the song. Yugi's fingers floated to Yami's face and caressed his cheeks. /Please wake up Yami./ Yugi thought, his voice ebbing with the end of the song. He tightened his hug on Yami and started the song over from the beginning. This time, Aziza's gentle voice joined Yugi's in a harmonious dance of melody and lyrics. Mana swallowed heavily, fighting back tears to join in singing. 

Yami shifted, taking in another deep breath. His crimson eyes gliding slowly open. He raised his hand to block the bright light and groaned.

Yugi couldn't contain himself. He kissed Yami, wrapping his crimson eyed doppelganger in the tightest hug his petite body could manage. Yami pulled back from the kiss and looked around confused. His crimson eyes falling on Yugi.

/Ra.../ Yugi's smile faded as he watched Yami, /Please tell me he doesn't have amnesia!/

The crimson eyes locked on worried and frightened amethyst, "Yugi, what are Mana and my Mother doing here?"

Yugi breathed a sigh of relief, "You were in an accident my love. They came to visit us."

Yami thought for a moment, "I don't remember what happened."

"Do you remember the graduation?" Yugi asked, trying to get a feel for how far back Yami could remember.

"Yes. I remember that and I remember you went to lunch with your grandfather while I went to get your....Oh no...where is it?" Yami pat his sides looking for the pockets his gown did not posses. "Where is it?" Yami's voice teetered on the verge of panic. He tried to stand to go looking what was lost.

Yugi gently grabbed his shoulders and guided him back into his laying position,"It's okay. It was not lost. Mana found the document. You had a star named for me." Yami's crimson eyes fell on his lover.

"I'm sorry, Yugi, I wanted to give it to you," Sorrow etched it's way onto Yami's sun-kissed face. 

"No need to apologize. I love it. Thank you so much for doing that for me. It was very sweet," Yugi kissed his husband again. After being without his lover for six weeks, he couldn't get enough of those soft lips and Yami's exotic taste.

"How long have I been asleep? It must have been at least a few days since you two were able to travel here," Yami's piercing gaze darted from his mother to his sister, "It is very good to see you both by the way." The three of them looked nervously at each other.
