Drugged on you.
Hello! I'm back with a fanfic! I know, long time no see! So sorry that it took a while. Anyway, this story will be a bit different and the characters are a bit OCC. BUT I assure u, I try to keep in character as much as possible! It is more inward looking and a lot of going through thought processes, so that the real action actually happens in the mind… at least for this first chapter!
Hope you enjoy!

He needed her. It was causing him to dream, to lose control. Time and time again, he tried to pull away, only to be tormented with the desire to be close to her again.
He needed her…more than she could ever imagine.
It was a terrible desire. Not being able to function whenever he's apart from her. He has been so used to her constant presence, even in his duels, in his sphere of comfort, in his group of friends. Whenever he had the opportunity to take over Yugi's body, there was only one person on his mind.
Tea
It has been over a year since he received his own body. It was a joy to finally have his own body to control and to live life. Of course, he was sad that this separation meant that he could not have that special link between him and Yugi. Still, they have been living like brothers, having that special bond, although not as intimately as it was when he was locked in the puzzle.
However, this proved to be an advantage over time. Yami was free to move, free to do whatever he wanted, free to talk to anyone he wanted without probing into Yugi's thoughts. Now he could concentrate on being himself, and for others to see him as only Yami. There was also something better about this, the little icing on the cake…
He could be closer to Tea. He could walk beside her after school, have lunch with her, sit beside her during movies, and best of all, flirt, whenever he could.
"So what are you doing tonight?" Yami asked.
"Oh, I have dance practice after school." Tea replied.
"Wanna have a drink with me after?" Yami continued.
"oh, no I can't. sorry Yami, maybe another time?" Anzu smiled sheepishly.
"Always the same excuses, always too busy for me", Yami thought. Tea always seemed to be too busy, what with school, dance and many things he doesn't know about. Is she trying to avoid him? Is she trying to keep herself away knowing that she clearly has feelings for him, yet not knowing whether he felt the same about her? He knew she liked him. She was always the first one to greet him in the morning, always ready to go home with him, and was always the first to speak to him.
Or was it all out of plain friendliness? After all, Tea probably saw Yami as another brother, just like she saw Yugi. No matter how different the two of them were, she probably has not been accustomed to treat them separately.
However he did notice that after his seperation from Yugi, Tea grew gradually quieter around Yami, as if not knowing what to say to him. Once of twice, he thought he saw her looking away shyly whenever he caught her staring at him. He liked it. He enjoyed it even. However, no one took the initiative, no one wanted to. It was taking too long, nothing was going to come out of this evasive behaviour from the both of them.
He hated this. This confusion. This muddled thoughts in his head. He never lost control and he was always sure of what he wanted and how he wanted to live his life…
But this girl is pushing his limit. He felt himself unable to rationalize properly, and more so recently, unable to control himself smiling at her and feeling a tinge bit happier when she was around. Why? He hit his fist on the wall, why is she controlling him?
"Bye guys, I'm heading off for practice!"
Yami jerked his head up at the sound of Tea leaving. Too many times has she slipped away, too many times have Yami held back.
"Tea seems really happy everytime she goes for dance practise… maybe it's because of someone she met in class." Yugi chuckled.
Yami turned sharply, "Wait what, she's seeing someone!"
Yugi stopped and looked over at Yami, surprised to se him so exasperated.
"No, no, we, as in, Joey and I, keep teasing her about this new guy in her class that she says keeps dancing next to her in class. She totally doesn't like the guy, but we think the guy is kind of interested. It's all in good fun man! Why so serious?"
Yami realized his outburst was quite out of character and turned away. Was that jealousy?
So what if it was jealously? Yami wasn't prepared to let some other guy take Tea away from him. Not after all the years they have spent together. He wasn't prepared to let some other guy see the concern in her eyes whenever he was in a tough duel, or that smile on her face whenever he was near her…
He knew what he had to do, and where he had to go…
"Yugi, what time will Tea return home?"

I know I said on my profile page that this would be a one shot, but really, I've been on hiatus for like what… 5 YEARS! Haha… yeah ok I know… I'm lazy/busy/making up other excuses that I shouldn't lol! Anyway, here's the first chapter so that it'll give you guys a sort of prelude into how this story will turn out. It's a different sort of writing style from my first fic, which I wrote a long long time ago! I hope it gives a more intriguing read! My, I haven't said this in a loooong time, but reviews would be much appreciated! Thanks =)
