"Some just don't understand"

-PLEASE PLEASE, tell me if this story is too bold, cause im not like this at all, I just had it stuck in my head after reading another story. So, review and let me know, I don't want to offend anybody. Thanks!

Its been a week since Yugi has come out of the closet to his friends. It took some explaining, but his friends came around and happily accepted his sexuality, but his other peers werent as inviting…

Yugi and Tea were sitting on the gym blechers waiting for their P.E teacher to arrive. "So Yugi, do you want to come shopping with me this weekend? I have a family reunion next weekend and I need a new outfit." Yugi smiled cheerfully, "Sure Tea, I'd love to come!" Tea smiled back, "Great! I cant wait!" she said as she clasped her hands together.

The class quieted down as the teacher enterd, "Sorry for being late kids..now on with todays activities, Today were out in the field playing…" she anticipated her answer as she reached behind her desk and pulled out a black and white ball, "Soccer!" A few of the jocks let out excited yelps as the others moaned and groaned, one of the girls in the class spoke up, "But Mrs. Fancher, its raining outside, I cant go out there…" she said as she daintily fixed her hair. rolled her eyes but smiled, "Sorry Heather, that's what is on todays agenda, now, lets all get changed and head out." Everyone stood as they dreaded going outside.

**Boys locker room**

In the back of the locker room, in the farthest corner, Yugi stood getting dressed in his black Addidas pull-over with blue stripes down the sleeves, with the matching blue shorts and the usual school issued soccer cleats and shin guards, ready for all the mud and grass stains, secretly he liked playing soccer he was actually great at it, it was just that he would end up being hurt like usual, he was beginning to think these "accidents" werent accidents at all..

As he made his way to the exit, one of the bigger jocks nudged Yugi with his shoulder, pretending to run into him as he whispered, "Faggot." Into Yugi's ear. At first Yugi looked at him with a look of 'did he reall just say that to me?' on his face, Yugi knowing the guy only as Ushio. Until Tea popped up, wearing her short pink Sofe shorts and a blank light gray sweatshirt. "Hey Yugi, You ready to get dirty?" she asked with a smirk on her face. Yugi, now being slightly taller than Tea now, could look down at her, he gave her a convincing smile, "Yeah lets go!"

On the field they were all seperated into two teams. Yugi was happy that Tea was on his team, he looked over at her with the hood of her sweatshirt up and her game face on. He smiled but was pulled from his thoughts as the teacher blew her whistle. The battle began as the teams fought over the ball, kicking and sliding. Yugi got a hold of the ball a began running towards the goal, other players who were left in his dust cheered him on, the guy who called him that terrible name ran up to his side as he tried to get the ball from him, but Yugi kicked it and made the goal, Yugi cheered slightly as did his team.

Yugi's team was making goals left and right. As the game came to a close it was Ushio's team who had the ball and they were getting ready to make a goal, the score was now 12 – 7. Yugi ran along side of Ushio and slid infront of him to get the ball which he did successfully. Ushio's football techniques kicked in, angered at Yugi's soccer skill he tackled him and yelled, "I would rather DIE than be beat by a homo!" Ushio began to punch Yugi and he kicked him a few times leaving gashes from the cleats. Ushio's friends pulled him off of Yugi and dragged him into the school to get him to "chill out."

Tea and other people Yugi was aquainted with ran to his aid. "Yugi! Yugi are you okay?" Slowly Yugi sat up with pain written all over his face but yet, still held a smile on his face as he wiped some blood off his mouth. "Yeah, I'm just fine…" Tea was surprised by the smile, she just had to ask, "Yugi..why are you smiling?" Yugi looked over at her, "Some people just don't understand…its okay." He looked to the ground still wearing that amazingly strong smile. Tea's eye just widened and looked on as he stood and walked away, on to his next class for the day.

"Ushio did what?" Joey almost yelled, people walking by him with their lunches, jumped and looked at him like he was crazy, but went on their way. "I know, but Yugi walked away like nothing had happened, but that's not the weird part guys…" Tea said, the other two looked at her listening. "He just walked away like nothing happened."

Before anyone could say anything else, Yugi walked up and sat down with his lunch but said nothing. "Hey Yuge!" Joey said as he saw his buddy. Yugi looked up and smiled, "Hello Joey."

Afew minutes later, the gang was talking amongst themselves till they heard the bell. "Time for boring ol' biology class.. man, I cant wait for the weekend!" Joey said as he and the gang made their way to their class. "What are you guys doing this weekend?" Tea smiled and said, "Yugi and I are going shopping so I can get a new outfit for my family reunion!" Yugi smiled cutely nd nodded, but his smile fadded as he came upon his locker, it was littered with signs saying, "Faggot! – Perv! – don't drop your soap!-" and so on. Tristan and Joey looked at the locker in anger as Tea covered her mouth.

Slowly Yugi walked up to his locker and slammed his hand on the piece of paper that said "Faggot" on it. Crumpled it in his had and tore it off his locker. Then started tearing the others off. As he pulled the last piece of paper off, all the way across his locker "FAG" was written in big black letters with a little rainbow underneath it, some of the colors in the rainbow were distorted due to the color of the locker.

Yugi punched his locker denting it, defeatedly he rested his forehead on his hand that was against the locker. He tried his hardest not to let the tears fall. Tea rested a hand on his shoulder, but before she said anything Yugi lightly pulled away, straitened up and fixed his school jacket, he sighed and turned to his friends with nothing other than a smile on his face. "Its okay guys, they…they just don't understand…" was the only thing he said before silently walking to class.
