Neko-fro: So.. uh this is my first time writing a yugioh fanfic. so please dont hurt me if i get a few things wrong.


"Yami! You have to stop going to that wretched place!" Grandpa said in a strict manner, he didn't yell, he used a forceful tone to carry his feelings instead of raising his voice, for Yugi's sake.
Grandpa had taken in Yami once he had found out that he was living on the streets with no place to go. He had found him beaten on his doorstep and called Yugi to help bring the boy inside. Yugi had cared for him and bandaged up his wounds and begged him to stay while he recuperated. That is was started this. The two began to get closer as they lived together and walked half the way to school together, Yugi began to wonder which class Yami was in and asked him, it turned out he was in the class above him and all Yami's friends were... thugs, or at least that is what they looked like to Yugi when he had to go to Yami's class to give him his bag as he had forgotten it. That was most probably the most terrifying thing the small boy ever had to do. His words were like a mouse's and the big guys had joked about it being a confession which turned the small boys face red. Thankfully Yami had saved him though he was quite rude about Yugi coming to his class. After a while Yugi had found out that Yami got into fights pretty often and would avoid going back to Grandpa's to avoid Yugi being worried.

"Yami? Grandpa? whats going on?" Yugi asked as he walked into the kitchen with his innocent little eyes and his innocent smile. It made Yami want to make him not so innocent but he always held back, he could never and would never do that to him.

"Nothing. I'm going out" Yami mumbled as he grabbed his jacket and walked out the door expecting Grandpa to say something like 'if you walk out that door don't ever come back' like his old man had said but he only heard silent and he felt the eyes of both Yugi and Grandpa watch him as he slammed the door closed.
Yami didn't expect Yugi or anyone to come after him to be honest so he began walking in the direction of a certain area that had gotten him in trouble in the first place.

"Yami!" he heard the small boys voice behind him but played it off as his conscience getting to him.

"YAMI!" The voice yelled louder, This time Yami turned around to find Yugi running at him. Yami looked at Yugi wide eyed. He'd followed him all the way to this neighborhood and that wasn't a good thing with knowing the people around here, he walked up to Yugi and grabbed his wrist pulling him back towards the direction of the game shop.

"Why did you follow me?" Yami growled, he wasn't angry, rather than that he was surprised anyone ran after him this far.

"I..Uh.." Yugi said flustered as he looked at Yami's large hand wrapped around his wrist.

"Whatever just go home and don't come back to this place ever! You hear me it's dangerous here on your own" Yami said pulling Yugi along with him. Yami felt Yugi tug and Yugi's wrist fell away from him, He turned and looked back at Yugi in surprise, Yugi had never pulled away from him before.

"Th-then you shouldn't come here either!" Yugi yelled his face looking away from Yami refusing to look him in the eye.

"What do you mean? I can take ca-" Yami stopped mid-sentence when Yugi turned his head to give him a tearful glare.

"You shouldn't come here. This is where you got those wounds from, this is the place you came to drink and do drugs. I want you to stop!" Yugi yelled a few tears fell down his face as he yelled.

"Yugi-"

"I-I don't want you to be like them! I... I want you to stay the way you are now. I... I want you to only..." Yugi tailed off shaking his head and looking at the floor. Yugi began to walk forward and he walked past Yami without glancing at him which for some reason pissed Yami off and Yami grabbed him pulling him close. His heart raced at their closeness as Yugi sobbed into Yami's chest a little.

"You want me to only what Yugi?" Yami asked softly as he looked up to the sky.

"Lookatme" Yugi said quickly as his voice was muffled by Yami's chest.

"What?" Yami said pulling away from Yugi,

"I want you to only look at me... I-I ...I like you!" Yugi said his face turning as red as the crimson blood that had flowed out of his deep shoulder wound the first time they had met. Yami looked at Yugi in shock, his rose coloured eyes widened and his cheeks reddened slightly.

"W-What are you talking about? I mean, we're both guys" Yami said in a fluster, he'd always wanted to hear those words come from Yugi's mouth, but not now, not in a place like this under these circumstances, Yami looked at Yugi as tears began to roll down his face he looked away wiping his face.

"You're right, sorry, I'll be going home now" Yugi said letting his hair which usually naturally spiked up droop over his face. Did Yami just blow his chance? Did he just hurt the one person he wouldn't even think about hurting, these thoughts swirled around in Yami's head and it became all too overwhelming he never realised what he had said before he heard it burst through the silent streets around him.

"Don't go! I need you!" Was what Yami had yelled. Yugi turned in shock and saw Yami looking at him looking completely serious.

"You don't need me. You just don't have anyone else to clean your wounds" Yugi spat as he looked at the floor.

"You're wrong Yugi, I was just shocked earlier, I like you too and I need you to stay with me. Without you I'll unravel like loose bandages. I'll do anything just please stay by my side" Yami said as he grabbed Yugi's hand in a gentle attempt to keep him with him.

"Then stop going there. Stop doing illegal things behind our back and come home at night without all the cuts and wounds. Promise me. Promise me you'll stop" Yugi said as the tears trailed down his face making Yami pull him into Yami's tight embrace.

"I wont. I'll stay by your side. please just stay with me. I promise I wont go back" Yami said softly keeping Yugi in his tight embrace he looked down to see Yugi looking up at him tears still streamed down his face.

"Well... look at this cutesy little scene between our buddy Yami and oh who's this your new girlfriend?" A spiteful voice sounded as Yami was about to say something. Yami shoved Yugi behind him hiding him from their sight.

"M-Marik"
