Summary: A year has passed since the yamis went to the afterlife. It's Valentine's Day, and the Hikaris hate it because they don't have their yamis. What surprises await them?

Warnings: Yaoi

VALENTINE SURPRISE

"Yugi! Heba! Get up! You have to eat breakfast and get ready for school!" Solomon Mutou shouted up the stairs.

"Yes, Grandpa!" two voices replied.

In his room, Yugi Mutou got out of bed. He had star-shaped tri-color hair with bangs that came over his eyes. He was short for his age, and he had very soft features that gave him an innocent look. He also had wide, amethyst eyes. He also had pale skin.

In another room, Heba Mutou got out of bed. He looked exactly like Yugi except he had deeply tanned skin instead of pale.

The two boys started to get ready for school.

It was Friday, and Valentine's Day was on that Sunday.

A year had passed since the Ceremonial Duel. Yugi had been forced into a duel against Yami, his dark, and had won. As a result, Yami was able to move on to the afterlife and join his family.

It had pained Yugi to win the duel because it also meant that he would lose the love of his life.

Yes, Yugi had fallen hard for his Dark, although he had never admitted that fact to Yami. Yugi had saw no point in telling Yami because with Yami being a spirit sharing his body, there was not much that could be done. Yugi had a feeling that Yami knew, but had said nothing.

Ryou Bakura and Malik Ishtar knew exactly how Yugi felt. Despite the fact that both their Darks were rather insane, Ryou and Malik had fallen in love with them, so it had saddened them when they were forced to say good-bye as well.

Malik, Ishizu, and Odion had all moved out to Domino because Malik wanted to be near the other Lights since they understood his pain.

Heba, Yugi's twin brother, had lived in Egypt with some other relatives all during Yugi's adventures with Yami. After the ceremonial Duel, Heba had returned to Japan in order to be closer to his brother.

Yugi had told Heba everything that had happened and received some startling news.

Heba had lived back in ancient Egypt as well with Yami. Heba had been the husband of Yami's older brother, Atemu. Heba had all his memories of that time, and he also felt the pain of losing your love because he was no longer with Atemu, who still held his heart.

All four were virtually alone, and they all hated Valentine's Day because it was a day to be with the one you love, and none of them could do that.

The rest of their friends could.

Shortly after the Ceremonial Duel, Seto and Joey had finally stopped beating around the bush and admitted they liked each other. Not long after that, Joey moved in with Seto and Mokuba at the Kaiba mansion so that Joey could get away from his abusive father.

Surprisingly, Tea had come to Yugi and told him that she liked him a lot and wanted to go out with him. Turns out that Tea was actually in love with Yugi, not Yami like everyone thought. Yugi, however, turned Tea down, telling her about his feelings for Yami and the fact he was gay. Tea had understood and told Yugi that she had suspected his feelings for Yami, but wanted to get her feelings out in the open. She understood and had expected Yugi's rejection. The two had remained close friends.

Tristan, who had had a crush on Tea for the longest time, finally asked Tea to go out with him. Yugi urged Tea to go out with him and see what happened. Tea did, and things had worked out for the best. The two were still together.

Recently, Joey sister Serenity and their mother had moved back to Domino although Joey's mother didn't have much to do with him. Serenity had taken a liking to Mokuba, and the two were now dating, although theirs wasn't a serious relationship at the moment.

Life had been very good for them all so far.

Although that day at school would be rough for Yugi, Heba, Ryou, and Malik.

"I hate this day." Heba muttered.

"I know, Heba. Do what I do. Grin and bear it." Yugi said.

Heba sighed. "I wish Atemu was here." Heba said.

"Well, at least if Atemu was here, you know that he would love you. I don't even know how Yami felt about me. For all I know, he only saw me as a friend." Yugi said.

"You never know. He may have felt the same way and decided to do like you and not say anything." Heba said.

"I know. I know." Yugi said.

"Yugi! Heba!"

Yugi and Heba looked ahead to see Tea, Joey, and Tristan ahead.

"Hey, guys." Yugi said.

"Where's Seto?" Heba asked.

"Oh. He's skipping school today to go to work. I have to get his work for him." Joey answered.

"Sounds like him." Yugi said.

"Come on. I'm sure that Ryou and Malik are wondering where we are." Tea said.

The group headed on to Domino high School where Ryou and Malik were waiting outside the school gates.

"About time!" Malik said.

"Ah, shut up! We got here before the bell rang." Joey said.

"Yeah. Barely." Malik said.

The group headed inside the school grounds.

"I can't wait until this weekend." Tea said.

"Oh, no." Tristan groaned.

"What was that for?!" Tea snapped.

"Dreading what you drag me into." Tristan answered.

Tea and Tristan were together, but they were very honest with each other, and Tristan made sure Tea knew when he either dreaded something or really didn't want to do something.

"Come on, guys." Yugi said, hoping to avoid an argument.

The group walked into the school building.

Yugi and Heba opened their lockers to get the book they needed-

-and were bombarded by hundreds of valentines crashing down on them.

"Whoa! I think you two broke the record on the number of valentines you got." Joey said.

Heba groaned. "I thought I made it clear to the people here that I had no intention in dating any of them." Heba said.

"People here don't listen very well." Ryou said. He opened his locker and was hit by valentines as well, though not as many as Yugi and Heba.

Malik laughed. "You three are so unlucky." Malik said. He had the same luck as Ryou when he opened his locker.

"Well, it shouldn't surprise you four." Tea said.

The group looked at Tea.

"Meaning?" Heba asked.

"Meaning that everyone knows that you four are the most available guys in school, and there are a lot of guys and girls who would love to have the chance to date you." Tea said.

Yugi opened one of the cards and read it. "You're so cute. I would love to go out with you." Yugi said.

Heba opened one. "Let's hook up and go out." Heba read.

"Let's meet up after school." Ryou said.

"Hey, good lookin. Let's go out and do something wild." Malik read.

"Not very creative." Joey said.

"I hate this day." Heba said.

"No kidding." Malik added.

Yugi, Heba, Ryou, and Malik gathered up the valentines and looked through them very quick before they threw them away.

The bell rang, and the group headed for class.

Throughout the day, Yugi, Heba, Malik, and Ryou all found their lovers piled with valentines each time.

"This is getting ridiculous." Malik muttered as the four headed to the tree they sat under with their friends for lunch.

"The day is half over, so we can't possibly get that many more." Heba said.

"Don't be so sure, Heba. This school can be full of surprises." Tea warned him.

"I learned that last year." Heba replied.

"If I get one more valentine, I swear that I am going to burst." Malik said.

"Then we'll see you burst. No one is going to give up on you two." Tea said.

"Thanks for making us feel better." Ryou said.

Joey's phone rang. He took out his phone and answered it. "Hello?" Joey said. He listened a moment and said, "Yeah… Okay. I'll try. No problem…Bye." Joey said and hung up.

"What was that about?" tea asked.

"That was Seto. Mokuba and Serenity roped him into hosting a Valentine's Day party at the mansion, and we are all invited." Joey said.

"Of course you're invited. You live there." Tristan said.

"I know that, smart aleck." Joey said.

"No offense, Joey, but I don't think I'm going to come." Yugi said.

"Why not, Yug?" Joey asked.

"A Valentine's Day party sounds like something more for couples, and I'm not seeing anyone right now." Yugi said.

"That goes double for me." Heba said.

"Me, three." Ryou said.

"And I make four." Malik added.

"Come on, guys. You have to come." Tristan said.

"Yeah. It won't be a party if we're all there." Tea added.

"I don't think so." Heba said.

"Come on, guys. Seto asked specifically that you come. It's just going to be us. Please." Joey said.

"I don't know." Yugi said a little hesitantly.

"Pleeeeeese." Joey said, whining.

"If you'll stop whining, I'll come!" Malik exclaimed, covering his ears.

"Come on, guys. What do you say?" Tea asked.

Yugi sighed. "Okay, Tea. I'll come." Yugi said.

"No way." Heba said.

"Heba, if I'm going, you're going." Yugi said.

Heba groaned.

"Well, I might as well join the party." Ryou said.

"Great! I can let Seto know that everyone is going to be there." Joey said.

Seto hung up the phone after talking to Joey a second time. "Well, it's official. All four of them are going to be there." Seto said.

Ishizu smiled from her seat across from him. "Thank you for this, Kaiba. I owe you." Ishizu said.

"Mokuba and Serenity really were begging me to throw a Valentine's Day party, so it's no big deal. Besides, I think that those dour deserve the chance to be happy." Seto said.

"Good. After Sunday, they are going to be very happy." Ishizu said.

Yugi and Heba arrived home from school.

"Hello, boys. How was school?" Solomon asked.

"I hate Valentine's Day." Heba growled.

Solomon smiled. He knew about the plight that both his grandsons had, so he understood why neither of them particularly cared for the day.

"School was fine except for all of the valentines we kept getting." Yugi said.

"I hate to tell you this, but you have more." Solomon said

"How many?" Yugi asked in dread. Being known as the King of Games had him getting a lot of fan mail, and he had already received a lot of valentines.

"Only one each." Solomon answered. He handed each of them an envelope.

Their names were on each valentine.

"Was it in the mail?" Yugi asked.

"Yes." Solomon answered.

"I guess whoever it was just stuck it in the mail. There's no address." Heba said.

"Well, do what you want with them." Solomon said.

Yugi and Heba headed upstairs and went in Yugi's room.

"What do you think these are about?" Heba asked.

"I don't know. We're about to find out, though." Yugi said. He opened his valentine to find a group of hearts on the front. He opened it to read what was written aloud.

Yugi,

I have loved you for a long time. I'm sorry that I never got the chance to tell you, but I will correct that soon. You'll see me on Sunday. I look forward to seeing you again.

Your Secret Admirer

"Whoa. This guys plans on coming here?" Heba asked.

"I guess so." Yugi said. He looked up and said, "What does your say?"

Heba opened it to find that the card had a teddy bear on it. He opened it and read it.

Heba,

It has been what seems like an eternity since the last time we were able to see each other. My feelings for you have not changed, and I will prove that to you when I see you n Sunday. I look forward to being able to see you once more.

Your Secret Love

"Okay. So we both have someone coming." Yugi said.

"This is kind of weird. I wonder who this is." Heba said.

"I have no idea." Yugi said.

"I guess we'll just have to wait to find out." Heba said.

~Sunday, February 14~

Yugi and Heba were getting ready for the party at the Kaiba mansion that night.

"You know, those two secret admirers of ours never did show up." Heba said.

"You sound disappointed." Yugi said, looking over at his brother as he put his collar around his neck.

"I just wanted to know who sent that valentine to me." Heba answered as he pulled on his boots.

After living with Yugi for so long, Heba had picked up Yugi's style and now wore leather as well.

"Well, the day isn't over it. Come on. We need to get to that party." Yugi said.

The two headed downstairs.

"Are you two leaving?" Solomon asked.

"Yeah. I'm not sure when we'll be back." Yugi said.

"All right. Just be careful." Solomon warned.

"We will." Yugi and Heba said.

The two went out and got in Solomon's car that they were borrowing for the night.

Since they would be getting home late, Solomon wanted them to take the car so that they wouldn't have to drive at night.

Yugi drove the car over to the Kaiba mansion.

Once parked, the two headed inside.

"Guys! You made!" Joey said, bounding over to his friends.

"Yes. We made it." Yugi said.

"Well, we can get this party going once Ryou and Malik get here." Joey said.

The group went into the living room.

Seto and Ishizu were off to one side.

"So, how are we doing this?" Seto asked.

"We're going to wait until Ryou and Malik get here. Once they do, we leave it up to them." Ishizu answered.

Seto nodded his agreement.

It wasn't long before Ryou and Malik arrived.

"Hey, guys!" Joey said.

"Hey." Malik said.

"Something weird happened to us." Ryou said.

"What?" Tea asked.

"We got valentines in the mail with no address on them that said we'd meet whoever our secret admirers are today." Ryou said.

"Really? Yugi and I got something like that, too." Heba said.

"Should we be worried?" Tristan asked.

"I don't think so. Not right now. No is going to get past Seto's security, so we should be good." Joey answered.

"I hope so." Ryou said.

The party got started and the group slowly started to spread out as they enjoyed the food and music that had been set up for them.

Seto glanced at Ishizu and said, "Show time."

Ryou was standing off to the side. 'I wish that Bakura was here. I wouldn't mind this day if I had him back. I loved him, regardless of the way he acted.' Ryou thought.

Ryou didn't notice that there was someone behind him.

"Miss me, Ry?"

Ryou tensed.

There was only one person that had ever called him Ry, and that person was gone.

"I just couldn't stay away." the voice said as arms wrapped around Ryou.

Ryou whirled around to find himself face-to-face with Bakura. His eyes widened. "B-Bakura?" Ryou asked shakily.

Bakura smiled softly, which was unusual for him. "I know it's been a year, Ryou, but I'm back now, and I'm not making the same mistakes that I did back then. I love you, Ry, and there is not way that I am going to let you go again." Bakura said.

"Are you-do you have to leave again?" Ryou asked.

"Not unless you want me to. I can stay, Ry." Bakura said.

Ryou had tears in his eyes. He flung his arms around Bakura and held onto him tightly. "Bakura, I thought I'd never see you again. I missed you so much!" Ryou said.

Bakura wrapped his arms around Ryou. "I'm not going anywhere, Ryou. I'm staying here for good." Bakura said.

Ryou looked up at Bakura and said, "I love you, Ryou."

"I know." Bakura said. He leaned down and kissed Ryou.

Malik was just watching the other. 'Why did I bother to come here? I can't have fun since I lost Marik.' Malik thought.

"You look bored. You sued to love parties." a voice said.

Malik gasped. He knew that voice. He had never forgotten that voice. He whirled around and saw Marik. "M-Marik? Is that you?" Malik asked.

Marik grinned. "Miss me?" Marik asked.

"Marik!" Malik exclaimed, throwing his arms around Marik and kissing him.

Marik happily kissed Malik back.

When the kiss ended, Marik said, "I take it that you did miss me."

"More than you will ever know." Malik answered.

Heba sighed as he sat back out of the way. 'I miss Atemu. I know that it's been five thousand years since the last time I saw him, but I miss him so much. I wish that he was here now.' Heba thought.

"You're as beautiful as the last time I saw you, Little Star." a deep voice said from behind Heba.

Heba gasped as he whirled around. He would know that voice anywhere. It had haunted his dreams enough. He came to face Atemu.

Atemu had star-shaped tri-color hair, but his was like Yami's. He also had sharp features and crimson eyes like Yami. He had tanned skin.

Atemu smiled at Heba. "It had been a long time, Little Star, but you are still beautiful." Atemu said.

Heba's eyes began to water. "At-Até? Y-you're here?" Heba asked.

"Yes. I'm here. I'm back, Heba, and I am not going to leave you again." Atemu said.

"Atemu!" Heba cried as he hugged Atemu tightly.

Atemu wrapped his arms around Heba. "It's all right, Heba. I'm back, and you won't be alone anymore." Atemu said.

Heba looked up. "You're not leaving right?" Heba asked.

"Never. I don't have to leave. I get to stay here with you for good." Atemu said.

"Até, that's great. I've missed you so much." Heba said.

"I know, Little Star. I missed you, too." Atemu said. He then leaned down and kissed Heba.

Heba closed his eyes and kissed back the man he loved.

Yugi was standing out on the balcony. 'I know that Seto had good intentions in inviting us, but without someone to be with, there's no point. Maybe if Yami was here, I would be happy. Than again, I might not be since there's no guarantee that he felt the same about me.' Yugi thought.

Yugi never noticed the figure behind him.

Yami chose to stand back for a moment and watch his Aibou. It had been a long time since the last time Yami had seen him. 'Oh, Aibou. You look the same as you did at the Ceremonial Duel. I swear that I am never leaving you again.' Yami thought. He then walked up behind Yugi.

Yugi still hadn't noticed that someone was behind him.

"The party is inside, Little One." Yami said.

Yugi jumped and whirled around. His eyes widened and started to fill with tears at who he saw. "Y-Yami? Is this a-a dream?" Yugi asked.

Yami chuckled. "No, Yugi. This is not a dream. I am really here." Yami said.

"Yami!" Yugi cried, throwing his arms around him. "I missed you so much! I didn't think that I would ever get to see you again!" Yugi said.

Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi. "Aibou, I am not going anywhere. Not now, not ever." Yami said.

Yugi looked up. "I don't understand. How are you back?" Yugi asked.

"The gods decided to give us a second chance at life." Yami answered.

"Us?" Yugi asked.

Yami nodded. "Bakura, Marik, and Atemu are here as well. They are with Ryou, Malik, and Heba now." Yami answered.

"I can't believe that you're back. I thought that I'd never see you again." Yugi said.

"Well, I'm back now, and I'm not going anywhere ever again." Yami said.

"I'm glad." Yugi said. He was glad that Yami was back, but he didn't know if Yami loved him.

Yugi got his answer in the next instant.

"Yugi, I hope you'll forgive me for this, but I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I didn't do this." Yami said.

Before Yugi could respond, Yami took Yugi's face in his hands and leaned down kissing Yugi.

Yugi was taken off guard, but once his mind registered that Yami was kissing him, Yugi kissed Yami back.

Yami was startled when Yugi started to kiss him back, but Yami immediately recovered and deepened the kiss.

The two soon broke apart.

"Yugi, I love you. I have loved you for a long time. Since Duelist Kingdom, I think. I did know how you felt, but like you, I knew that there was no way we could be together as long as I was a spirit, so I decided to say nothing. I'm sorry that U didn't, Yugi." Yami said.

"You love me?" Yugi asked, unable to believe that his dream was coming true.

"Yes, Yugi. I love you. More than you'll ever know." Yami said.

"I love you, too, Yami." Yugi said.

Yami smiled. "I know." Yami said before leaning down and kissing Yugi again.

After spending some time alone with their Lights, the four Darks finally told the others that they were back.

"How the hell are you back?!" Joey exclaimed.

"Well, in short, we all missed them terribly, so the gods decided to allow us to live a second life here." Yami said.

"Of course, we have Ishizu to thank for that. She's the one who beseeched the gods on your behalf to allow us to come back." Atemu said.

"You did that, Sister?" Malik asked.

Ishizu smiled at her brother. "Yes, Malik. I did. I knew how much all four of you missed them, so I decided to try to help." Ishizu said.

"Thank you, Sister. You have no idea what this means to us." Malik said.

"So, you guys are here for good, right? You're not leaving or anything?" Tea asked.

"Nope. We're here to stay." Bakura said.

"And we'd better thank you, priest." Marik said.

"For what?" Heba asked.

"Seto's the one who arranged this party so that you would be here for us.' Atemu said.

"That's why you threw us this party?" Serenity asked.

"Yes. I figured it would be the easiest way." Seto answered.

Yugi then realized something. "It was you, wasn't it?" Yugi asked.

"Us what?" Yami asked.

"You were the ones that sent us those valentines saying that you would see us today." Yugi said.

Yami chuckled. "Guilty as charged." Yami said.

"Well, we had to do something." Atemu said.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Joey demanded, glaring at his boyfriend.

"Because you are a blabber mouth, and you would have told them." Seto answered.

Joey pouted, causing everyone to laugh.

"Well, I'd say that this has turned out to be one great Valentine's Day." Mokuba said.

No one denied that.

"So, do you four still hate Valentine's Day?" Tristan asked.

"No." Yugi, Heba, Ryou, and Malik said at the same time.

"Why should they? They have us now." Bakura said.

"Yeah." Marik said.

"Well, I'd say that we all have had a good day." Yami said.

Everyone agreed with that.

After the party, everyone went home.

Yugi and Yami were lying on the bed together.

"I'm glad your back, Yami. I wasn't sure if you actually felt the same way as me." Yugi said.

Yami brushed Yugi's bangs out of his eyes. "How could I not? You're everything that I hoped for in a boyfriend. I think that you're perfect." Yami said.

Yugi smiled. "I'm glad to have you back, Yami. I love you." Yugi said.

"I love you, too." Yami said. He leaned forward and kissed Yugi. "Happy Valentine's Day, Aibou." Yami said.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Yami." Yugi said before kissing Yami again.

Hope you liked it. I know the meetings with the yamis and Hikaris were virtually the same, but I wanted to show them all.

R&R.
