Welcome to Gaia! ::

[[Let's have Rebecca visit first. The she can get a call from Grandpa via Yugi's phone. I think he should mention Akiko to Yugi because it's bothering Grandpa today. Wait.... what do you mean by swiping away the phone? XD sorry I'm starting to get tired XD. Ok, I agree with going halfway with the cuts- that actually sounds really good. And so does the morning when he goes to make breakfast and he has the talk with her mom then. Then at the end she wakes up and doesn't see him there and freaks out [[I've actually had this feelings- when I first slept over at my bf's house I woke up and didn't know where I was and where he was so I felt freaked out- her case will be a bit worse though]].

Ok, we can have Grandpa tell him where she lives. Perhaps when he comes home, Grandpa tries to convince him to go and Yugi already made his mind up about going already XD. I think this works out better for Sam too because she and Atem should concentrate on one another. But when the two of them get together (Atem and Sam) Yugi realizes then that he's lonely and Atem offers his tickets right?

hahaha!!! I know right!? It's cool but it's like wtf at the same time! I've tried- it only hurts if you hit the person in the eye XD. Experiment more! hahaha.

Oooo, I like the idea about the beach. That would be a nice place for them to go. Yes! I think she should say 'we're right in time...... for the sunset' and he just looks at her in amazement. Perhaps they could also discuss about one moving in with the other? Atem offers his house to her even though she has her own house now? Perhaps also he won't want to be away from her? Should they also worry about Joey since he doesn't come back and the hospital calls? I dunno, do you want to do a scene like that? Perhaps Joey could apologize to both of them? Just throwing out ideas :3

Yes, I'll have Grandpa talk to him now while he makes the cake. Then when he talks to Akiko you can be him :3 unless you want to be Grandpa now- in which case just take over from me and I'll edit my post if needed]]

Joey smiled, he was happy she didn't say no. He had no idea this was just a way for her to picture Atem instead of him. It wasn't wrong since deep down he was going to think of Seto. He felt aroused ever since she suggested this 'present', but he was actually turned on alot when she got in this position. Sam was a very attractive woman, it was no wonder that even Joey could feel attracted to her- even though he was gay. Joey quickly grabbed a condom and crawled up on bed behind her - placing his hands on her hip. "Just like that," he said hotly. This was his number pet peev with having sex with women- they had to use a condom. It was obnoxious. Since this was a first for him in this position, he took his finger and searched for her entrance. Once he did he poked in a bit with his finger but didn't mess around. Instead he put the condom on and penetrated her. He didn't really take it too easy like Atem would, instead he would go in and start to hump at a decent pace.

[[Oh! How about the name Ryu for the boy? Ryu is a common name and it means 'dragon'. Ryu Kaiba]]

Normally, Ishizu would be upset with getting such a large needle. But she didn't care, she didn't want to feel this pain anymore. After they got it in, she felt a lot better. Ok, ok this was nice- a lot better. Having a baby wasn't so hard. [[wait until it wears off XD]] "Where's Seto?" she asked seeing him come in then leave. She didn't want to be without him.

Sam started to cry in his dream. "Sam, what's wrong," he said rubbing her back. Sam put her hands to her face and weeped, "I don't want to be alone anymore!" Atem didn't understand what was happening. "But I'm right here, you're not alone anymore," he said. Sam shook her head and shouted a bit, "You're not there! You're not here! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!?" Her voice echoed as everything around him went black. Where was he now?! He stood up and looked around for her. He called out her name and heard nothing now. He felt like he was spinning.

Grandpa was sitting at the table when he saw Yugi come downstairs to the kitchen. He looked over, wondering what he was going to do. He never considered getting help for Yugi- he thought it would do more harm then good. And he certainly didn't want to put him on medication. He didn't think anything was wrong with him for loving someone so much, for believing in soul mates. But there was something wrong with the way he was dealing with this. What also worried him was, he didn't know what was happening with Akiko. Did she love her Grandson as much as he loved her? He wanted to say yes but then why hasn't she made an effort? He didn't know what exactly happened. "Yugi, what are you doing?" he asked out of curiosity.

Akiko nodded her head and walked into his office. She sat down with her head down. She was in no mood today to deal with this. Usually she could just get through it but she was feeling especially anxious today.
He sat down in his chair and began to write. Without stopping, he asked her, "So, how are you feeling today? Is there anything you want to talk about?"
Akiko didn't look at him, not like he was looking at her anyway. "Lonely, and no," she replied quickly.
"Akiko, perhaps you wouldn't feel so lonely if you perhaps went out and socialized," he said looking at her.
"I don't know anyone here," she said stubbornly, not wanting to get into details about this anymore.
"Well if you made an effort you could meet people here and find someone new," he said.
She glared up at him. Was this a joke to him? Was her love life some commercial retail store were she could just replace people!? "I don't want to......" she murmured stubbornly.

[[ok, gotcha :3
hahaha! wait what? Seto putting a card in a gun? Did that happen in the anime or something? I don't remember that XD Well I saw a thing on mythbusters about stuffing guns with something so that they won't shoot. It's a myth- the barrel will just explode and you'll probably be hit with the debree. but then again, Seto may have super powers XD haha j/k

Oooo, I like the std idea. Yea, I believe warts aren't that bad for guys but really really bad for girls. I also believe it can't transfer if a condom is warn *looks up*. I like the idea too of Seto getting pissed. ]]

Sam never really did anything special for him, and if she did he didn't notice. He had enough people doing special things to him that it didn't bother him that she wouldn't. He kept his rhythm going in and out of her. He didn't moan with her, he didn't feel right doing that. He breathed heavily through his nose and sometimes his mouth. Other then that he was pretty quiet and as far as Sam knew, that's just the type of person he was when he had sex. She had no idea how loud he was with Seto. He didn't really ever moan with the other men. No, he only moaned with Seto. Even now with his subconscious telling itself that she was Seto, he didn't moan. He needed the real thing in order for that to happen. He was a bit more touchy today though, rubbing her hips and back. He also leaned down to kiss her back.

She held his hand as he entered in and went to her side. She was still feeling ok, a bit loose too. She smiled and nodded, "Ok, if it's a boy his name will be Ryu," she said in a slightly tired voice though she wasn't tired- just relaxed. The doctor came in and greeted the two, he checked her. "Right now your dilated 2 centimeters," he said coming back up. Ishizu put her head back, she was no where ready to have the baby come out. But she was going through labor- this wasn't a false alarm. She hoped this wasn't a long labor. "Ok...." she said calmly. No reason to complain now, as long as she felt ok for now.

He walked in one direction, unable to see anything but himself. He didn't know where Sam went, rather, where he went. Where was he? He called out for her a few times, but no response. He didn't like this, he felt he was very alone. "Am I dead?" he asked himself in his dream.

"No no, I don't want one, it's ok," he declined to having a cake. He paused for a moment. It really hurt him to see his grandson like this. "Yugi..." he said sighing a bit. He knew this wasn't going to be an easy thing to bring up. But maybe if he got him to talk about it? Perhaps call her? He didn't know. But he did know that this wasn't healthy for him either. "Perhaps we should talk?" he said watching him and watching his actions carefully. "I know it's been a year since you saw her. And you never talked to me about it, about what happened," he said and stopped to observe him.

"Why not?" he asked her plainly. Akiko didn't reply, she slunked in her chair and looked out the window. Why should she tell him anything? He didn't even understand her! Isn't that what these people are supposed to do? Understand there patients? "Akiko, people move on. People break up and they find other people. Have you ever though that he may have moved on?" he said.
That caught her attention. How dare he! She glared at him, not liking that idea at all. "Soul mates just don't 'move on'" she snapped back at him. She gripped her fists, Yugi moved on and forgot about her? She just kept dwelling on the thing Joey was saying in the background. Ugh.... now she was so confused with herself! She didn't want him to suffer without her but she didn't want him to be with someone else! She didn't want to be forgotten. They were supposed to be soul mates after all, right? Or were those just pretty words? God she didn't know what to think now!

[[hahaha! omg what? That's pretty funny! I have no idea how and why, but yup, he stopped the gun with a card XD. A condom can prevent STDs but not 100%. I have to look up more info on that... Ok I just looked up some info: http://www.cdc.gov/std/hpv/stdfact-hpv-and-men.htm a condom can lower the chance- perhaps Sam gets tested and there is no sign of it? She was lucky. Joey should only have warts on his member and not his rear (since apparently you can get a**l warts..... ugh I hate those two words together XD) that way Seto can still have sex with him but Joey can't take him until he's treated.

Don't forget 4. could have infected his sister. Oh s**t, yea he would be pissed XD. God, why do I see him choking Joey? O.o XD. haha, yes this is very boring for the both of them. But it's good for story purposes X3. HAHA! yes! I love the dog bite idea X3]]

Joey did in fact like being ordered by Sam. He was a bit of a push over compared to her. Sure he was a bit dominant but no where near in control. He did what Sam told him and went harder. He gripped the top of her thighs so he could pull her while he thrusted in. He checked the door to make sure it was shut and it was. He remembered all too well what the dog did to him. At least it was only his rear, it could have been a lot worse. Did he think he was hurting her? Heh, silly dog. Oh well, since the door was shut he continued his rhythm, going faster and harder when she commanded.

The nurses kept by making sure everything was alright. She couldn't really do anything until she was bigger. They turned the tv on and it happened to be the news. They were talking about the up coming tournament in California. Ishizu chuckled a little, "I bet you'll spend a lot of time teaching him when he's older how to play, huh?" She couldn't feel anything right now but she sounded winded and droggy. She was fully aware though and doing fine.

Grandpa's eyes widened for a second when he watched Yugi drop some things. He felt bad reminding him, but he felt he had to. They stared at each other for a while- he waited for a response from him. Once he replied and continued his work Grandpa looked away for a second. "Well, have you tried calling?" he said in a lower voice then usual. He wasn't trying to make him feel bad, but he had to get him talking or something. He looked back at him.

[[I'm holding off on Atem right now, thinking about where his dream should lead him next. I was thinking about having him see himself and having his other self (no not Yugi) do a penalty game to him. I dunno if that would be interesting or stupid]]

"Even if there was such things as soul mates, how do you know? You two dated a little over a year and that's it. He hasn't called you once and you haven't called him either. How can you know in that little of time, without either of you contacting another?" he said trying to be logical.
Sure, she used to think like him. Logic was the only truth right? It made absolute sense if you looked at it that way. But she didn't, because there was just something that told her that there was such a thing. Why would she feel like this? Why would she feel so empty? But what he told her only angered her- it showed on her face.
He took the time to ask another question, "And if you believe that so much, why haven't you called?"
Akiko looked down, she hadden't made an effort has she? But she still thought that he hated her for moving. "Because...." she said thinking what to say, "he was angry that I left."
"You two broke up, it happens," he said. "So why make yourself suffer? You should look for someone else."
Akiko shook her head and stomped on the ground in aggravation, "I DON'T want somebody new!" she shouted. How many times does she need to hear this bull crap!?

[[hurr hurr, heart of the cards XD

From what I read it can be treated. It may take a few treatments but I believe it does. Just for the hell of it, we'll say that he was cured of it. It's a lot harder to cure for women since it can develop into other things. God damn is Joey going to get the s**t beat out of him, from multiple people O.o]]

Joey huffed a bit more when she said 'good boy'. Oh, that stroked his mentality. Yes, that's what Seto used to tell him in such a lustful tone. Now Sam would do it for him. It was perhaps his favorite thing she did with him. It made him go faster and harder. Deep down he thought it was Seto- it made him more energetic this time. He leaned over her back and panted from excitement. His mind was in another place, and that place brought him great pleasure. He tied a lot harder to actually please then he has in a long time. He kept one hand on her thigh and the other ventured down to her netherlands. He's never fingered a girl before, but how hard could it be. He rubbed her a bit, in his mind believing he was jerking off Seto. It was obvious that he's never done this before, but at least he was trying.

"Yes he will, he'll have your genes afterall," she said. She then realized that she said 'he' as if she just knew. She blushed a bit, was that a sign? "Or she," she added afterwards. She knew Seto wanted a boy, which was fine. But she didn't want him to be angry if the baby was a girl. Well, she wouldn't mind too much if he was mad at her, she didn't want him to hate the baby. "Seto, you'll love the baby no matter what?" she said with deep eyes. She was feeling a bit emotional from the excitement and everything. She would be crushed is he held a grudge against her baby.

Atem finally just sat down, giving up trying to find her and finding out where he was. He sighed sadly, why was he here? He looked down at his hands and saw the scar he saw before was pouring out blood. His fingers cringed in fear. He looked down to see a puddle forming from them. Suddenly, from the puddle came a living corpse. It grabbed his wrists and pulled itself up into his face. Atem jumped and tried to get away from it. "This was the choice that you made," it hissed in a deep bone chilling tone. Atem yelled and tried to pull away from it. "There is no point in you staying in this time. You've escaped your death once but not again. You've lost the will to live so now your mine," it said dragging him down into the puddle of blood.

In reality, Atem was kicking and jerking around in his sleep. Groans of angst escaped his mouth with occasional growls. His force was so violent that he ended up throwing himself off the bed. He fell right onto his back creating a loud 'thud' noise. He instantly woke up and gasped for air. His face was pale and horrified. He took a few looks around to find he was in his room. He then instantly looked at his hands and wrists. There was nothing there, no marks or scars.

Though he felt it was better that he was talking about it, he still felt bad hearing it. He never knew that he ran away from her. Is this why he was the way he was? He felt guilt on top of loneliness? Grandpa stood up and walked over to his Grandson. He put his hand on his shoulder. "You'll never know until...." he said but stopped when he heard a thump from upstairs. He jumped a bit and looked upwards, "What in the world was that?"

The therapist was a bit thrown off by her shout. She hasn't lashed out at him ever really. "Have you been taking your medicine?" he asked.
"No," she snapped back at him, "they make me feel like s**t and they aren't helping." She didn't care if he knew she wasn't taking them, not at the moment. She was so angry inside from this man.
"You should, they'll help you," he said.
Akiko couldn't take this anymore. She stood up and slammed her hands on the desk. "I don't need medication! I'm just lonely! I'm not sick or mental! Why can't anybody understand this!?" she huffed from anger. "I miss my other half!" she added feeling like she was going to cry right then and there.

[[Seto started this domino effect XD]]

He didn't ask her what was wrong when he heard her gasp. He just continued doing what he was doing. Joey's timing with her wasn't always at the same time. She had already orgasmed before he had. Though he was close. He removed his finger and quickened his pace and got a few more humps in before he came. He pulled out when she fell forward. He thought nothing of any type of emotional exhaustion. He layed down next to her on his stomach and rubbed her back. "That was a good present," he said. Afterwards, he didn't really feel like cuddling anymore. He didn't know why.

Ishizu smiled and nuzzled her head against his hand. She didn't care what gender the baby was either- she would love it no matter what. And she wasn't mad Seto prefered one type over the other- as long as he loved the child. She rubbed her stomach, it felt hard almost like her forehead [[this is true apparently, I still can't believe it]]. "I hope the baby wants to come out soon," she said.

Atem snapped out of it when Yugi came into his room. He looked up at him, still a bit freaked out. "Oh.... ah..... ok yea...." he said jumping up and brushing himself off. "Only an hour?" he said looking over at his alarm clock. He thought he set it, but it was never turned on. "I need to take a shower," he said hastily as he realized how little time he had left. He didn't want to look like a slob when he got there. He had to look decent. He ran to his closet and pulled out what ever looked good. He squeezed past Yugi, "Excuse me," he said trying to get through. He couldn't believe that he over slept.

Grandpa saw how eager he was to get away from this conversation. He sighed. He knew Yugi missed her, but did she miss him? He thought perhaps, if anything, if they both missed each other and loved each other- there would be a way for them to be together. Even if it was long distance. Even if he would have to wait to see her. But did she still love him or was Yugi right? He would have liked to believe she did, but he had to find out.

[[should Grandpa swipe Yugi's cell phone now or notice that he left it when he leaves for Sam and Joey's?]]

Dr. Smith moved back a bit from shock. Akiko just stood there, she couldn't believe that she yelled at him after all this time. She was just so upset. She walked away from him and out of his office. She didn't care if he called her mother and told her. Not today, she couldn't handle it today. He was an a*****e anyway. He was trying to convince her to do other things instead of trying to understand her. She stormed out of the building and started walking home. Today was just one of those days.

[[you can introduce Rebecca whenever you want now. Oh and should a day go by where Akiko is or should he come back the same day? Personally I think a day should go by before he gets there. Sam and Atem can have the night to themselves and Joey in the hospital and Seto finding him can also be a day.]]

Joey let her bury her head in his shoulder. He patted her head just a little just to be nice. But he pulled away from her and stood up. "Heh, I should probably get ready too," he said walking away to the bathroom to take a shower. It wasn't that he didn't care about her, but he didn't know. He couldn't read her even though it was obvious. He probably wouldn't be able to do anything for her anyway if he knew. His state of mind really only concerned him with his own well being and pleasure. He got into the shower hurrying before his friends came in.

[[pregnancy is gross razz
perhaps once Yugi and Atem get to Sam and Joey's (or a bit before) the epidoral can wear off on Ishizu and the final stages of labor can start (like pushing and all that stuff). hurr I hate the fact labor can take a really long time- 12+ I've heard.]]

The doctor looked at Seto and said, "Labor can be very quick or very slow, she's dilating steadily."
Ishizu rolled her eyes a bit but smiled a bit. She figured Seto would be impatient with her labor. "It's not going to happen for a while, do you want to get something from the cafeteria?" she said. Maybe if he was doing something he wouldn't be so impatient or nervous. "If anything changes someone can get you. But I don't think anything will happen if you make a quick stop there," she said smiling.

[[perhaps in the middle of him in the cafeteria, she starts pushing and someone gets him. 'Nothing would happen would it? 'Shut up Seto!' XD]]

He didn't mean to act the way he did. He was just rather stunned and shaken up. He hadn't dreampt of Sam in a long time. She faded from his dreams within the first month. Atem stripped down and got into the shower. Not only did it bother him that he saw Sam and the way he last saw Sam in his dream, he was shakened by the last part. He wouldn't admit it, even back then, but the thought of passing on now shook him. He had reasons now to be here, he had a second life. But what he saw and was told, did he have a purpose here anymore? And if he had one before, what was it? His shower was quick, he knew he didn't have a lot of time. Once he was done he jumped out to dry off quickly. He could hear Yugi's foot steps hurrying up stairs.

Grandpa nodded, finding it strange he fell out of his bed. Sleeping, however, it wasn't strange that he was sleeping. Grandpa decided to leave Yugi alone. It was probably a bad time to speak up. Afterall, he was going to Joey's party later. He didn't want to upset him anymore. But at least he knew a little bit more. "Ok," he said smiling, so to let him know he wasn't mad at him or anything. Once Yugi ran upstairs, he walked into the living to relax.

[[I'll have him see that Yugi left it and curiosity gets to him rather then him swiping it.]]

Akiko made it back to her house only to see someone waiting outside her house. Upon getting closer, she could see it was Rebecca. She was shocked and puzzled to why she was there for her. Then she remembered, Rebecca lived in the States as well. She just didn't know that she live in good ol' Cali. "Hello?" she said approaching her, just in case the girl wasn't Rebecca. But more importantly, why was she here? It was rather.... random.

[[so yea.... I twisted my ankle so I can't go to work today (or tomorrow but I have a party here tomorrow). So I'll be on pretty much all day]]

Joey continued to wash himself. He looked down to see a strange sot on his member. It was a slightly red oval. He had no idea and didn't really care. He figured he went too hard on his guy friends last night and it was a rash or something. He shrugged his shoulders and finished up. Drying off, he casually walked into the bedroom again to grab some clothes. "Hun?" he said noticing she was just kinda laying there, "are you still tired? You should get ready." [[god Joey's being a d**k ><]] He started changing in the room- he put a white with sky blue stripes shirt on with dark blue baggy jeans. He liked dressing casual like he always did.

[[Joey's outfit in b&w and without goggles: http://media.photobucket.com/image/jonouchi/boomerangbone/Yugioh/Yugi014.jpg?o=13 I didn't draw this.]]

Atem dried his hair, brushed his teeth, got changed, and was ready. He dressed in a black button down shirt with his usual black pants. He stepped out of the bathroom and was pretty set to go. He looked pretty good too, except for the dark circles under his eyes. That was from oversleeping all the time. Then he remembered, he had to pick a card for Joey! He walked into his room and opened a box with special cards that he had won from tournaments or were simply special to him. He fanned through them and found one he thought Joey would like. He stopped and saw a very important card. It was one that reminded him of Sam. He froze and stared at it. God how was he supposed to do this? Yes he missed her, yes he was lonely, yes he hated himself for what he did. Was this just punishment? He put that card away with the others and put the box away. He put the card in a protective sleeve and left his room. He checked Yugi's room first to see if he was there. He was. "I'm ready," he said in not the most confident voice ever. He can't do this... he couldn't see the girl he loved in someone elses arms.

Ishizu eyed him as if for him to shut up. She didn't want him to offend anyone who was taking care of her. "No, I'm fine," she said smiling afterwards. "I'll see you later," she said just relaxing from the epidoral.

Akiko smiled a little but forced the rest of it. She was happy to see Rebecca but she wasn't in the best mood right now. She never was. "Yea, it has hasn't it?" she said in a calm and mellow voice. She seemed a bit shocked she was able to just 'run across' her address like that. But then again, Rebecca was into computers and hacking. Who knows what she was looking up at the time. She chuckled softly thinking about it. Though she presented herself as best she could, there was a dullness in her eyes she could not cover up. "Do you live near here?" she figured she would ask. "How have you been?" she also added.

[[ugh.... I forget how long my mom was in labor, but 42 hours? D:
hee hee, thanks. I've done this so many times XD I'm such a clutz! Um, this time it doesn't hurt but it's awkward to walk and a bit discomforting. It could have been a lot worse. But it wasn't :3]]
