Tashi: So, this is going to be my new fic. I will be working on this along side of Accidentally in Love and Animal in Me, though updates will be slow. Basically whenever inspiration hits, I'll update. Anyway, I hope you enjoy! And please review/ favorite/ follow! THANKYOU!

Yami Sennen rose to stardom at the early age of eighteen with his boyfriend of two years, Yugi Mutou by his side. However, Yami finds Yugi gone after one of his events, leaving behind a letter and the shattered pieces of Yami's heart. Six years later, Yami has grown to become the hottest actor of his time. He has everything; the fame, fortune, looks, talent, and fangirls. He has everything except the one thing he wants the most. What happens when Yugi appears in his life again? Will Yami be able to convince Yugi to stay? Or will Yugi once again slip from his grasp?

Are you ready? LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!

"I love you."

A crimson-eyed boy gazed intently into the girl's eyes, turning away sharply before releasing an audible sigh. "I can't accept your feelings. I'm sorry."

"But-but why? I thought you-"

"I never liked you. I'm sorry if I led you on."

"Why are you doing this? If you never liked me, then why did you help me all this time?"

"I was confused, confusing you for someone of my past. Now that I see more clearly now, my feelings have been put at ease. Because you are you, I do not care about what happens to you."

The girl gasped, tears streaming down her face. "So then...all I was to you was some fake? You didn't care for me even once?"

"No."

The boy walked away from the girl, biting his lip as a single tear rolled down his cheek.

"AND CUT! That's a wrap people!" The director called out and stood from his chair as the boy approached him. "Yami! Beautiful acting as always. You did well tonight."

Yami smiled and bowed politely, "Thank you."

The director patted him on the back and walked him away from the set, "You're very talented for your age. I'll be sure to keep in touch for future projects, alright?"

"Thank you, sir."

"Ah, such a humble and polite boy, too. Alright, get some rest, Yami. We'll be shooting the rest tomorrow." The directed gave his shoulder solid squeeze before going to talk to the rest of the staff.

Yami smiled warmly and walked over to his small dressing room to gather his things. He hurried stuffed his phone, script, and a bouquet of roses into his bag, not wanting to waste another second away from his love.

As he was about to make his way to his car, he found his manager and friend leaning against his car. "Mahad, what are you doing here?" Yami asked.

"You heading home now?"

"I am. Yugi is waiting for me."

Mahad bit his lip, his eyes cast downwards, avoiding Yami's. Yami frowned, noticing his strange behavior. "Mahad, what's wrong? You looked troubled."

"Nothing." Mahad stood from the car and walked over to Yami, placing a firm hand on his shoulder, "Take care of yourself, alright?"

"Of course."

"Have a good night, Yami. If you need to talk, I'm just a call away."

Yami nodded as Mahad turned and walked off. He furrowed his brows, not understanding Mahad's strange behavior but shrugged it off. He had more important matters to attend to. A giddy smile formed upon his lips as he got into his car and pulled out of the parking structure.

His mind wandered elsewhere as he drove through the streets of Domino, neon lights flashing across his windshield as he drove past a chain of shops, clubs, and restaurants. All of that seemed a blur as he drove to his apartment that he shared with his beloved.

He pulled into the building and parked in his spot, snatched the roses up from the passenger seat and giving them a quick whiff before practically running out of the car into the lobby. He pressed the UP button and waited impatiently for the elevator. He half-debated about taking the stairs but then he'd be sweaty and he knew how much Yugi hated it when he gave him sweaty hugs.

Yami chuckled as he recalled the way Yugi would scrunch his face whenever Yami gave him sweaty hugs, loving the way the smaller boy's nose would crinkle and how he'd whine in that adorably cute voice of his. God, Yami loved Yugi to death.

The elevator chimed and he stepped inside, pressing the twenty-third floor, the penthouse that he was able to afford with the money he made. His foot tapped against the marbled floor of the elevator. Come on, come on… His eyes rolled up to the ceiling, willing for the elevator to move faster.

He flew out of the doors as soon as they opened and merrily made his way to the door. He took out his keys and quickly unlocked the door, stepping into his dark apartment. His crimson eyes scanned the darkness, looking for any signs of his little one.

Yami glanced over to the clock on the microwave and saw it was a little past midnight. Figuring Yugi had gone to bed, he placed the roses on the coffee table and shrugged off his leather jacket before tiptoeing his way to their bedroom, which was open just a crack.

He poked his head and glanced at the bed, finding it empty. His eyebrows mashed together as he stepped into the dark, empty room.

"Yugi?" He called out.

No answer.

Yami sat at the edge of the bed and ran his fingers over the silky white sheets he'd ordered especially for Yugi, knowing the boy liked to be cool at night and had once voiced how he loved the fabric. "Did he go out? He could have at least called me…" He pouted.

He fell back against the bed and stared up at the high white ceiling for a moment before averting his gaze to the nightstand where a small piece of paper tucked beneath the lamp caught his attention. He sat up and reached out for the note, pulling his phone out of his pocket to call Yugi.

The phone rang as Yami opened the note casually, thinking maybe Yugi had left him a note to tell him where he was going. However, his heart stopped as he read the contents of the note. Tears welled up in his eyes gripped onto the phone.

"Hello?" Yugi's bell-like voice came from the other end.

"Yugi…" Yami breathed, "Where are-"

"This is Yami, right? I knew you'd call me the moment you found the apartment empty. I-I'm sorry… I can't do this anymore. I hope you find success in the future with your acting career. I...I'm sorry I can't be a part of it but I hope you do well. Don't try to find me, just move on with your life. I don't want to stand in your way anymore, so go out there and show the world what you can do. Don't give up this dream because of me, please. Live it. Achieve it, for me. I-I'll miss you. Goodbye, Yami."

Beep!

Yami inhaled sharply, feeling a thousand pricks in his heart. His hand flew up to his mouth to suppress the sob that escaped his throat. Hot tears ran down his face, falling upon the note he gripped onto tightly in his trembling hand. Why…? Why did you leave?

He ran his fingers through his hair and jumped off the bed, yanking the bedroom door open. He stumbled his way out to the living room, slamming the glass sliding door leading to the balcony open. He ran to the edge of the balcony and clutched onto the rails, staring out towards the distance, millions of twinkling lights glimmering from the buildings, lighting up the sky and chasing away the stars.

Yami felt out of breath as his eyes frantically scanned the far stretch of city before him. He took a deep breath before letting out an agonized scream that tore through the night, rising above the sounds of the honking cars and loud music coming from the city. He screamed out one thing and that one thing only.

"YUGI!"

Six Years Later

"People everywhere are fascinated by this young male star known as Yami Sennen, who has rocked the entertainment world with five successful movies and three dramas. He has been awarded with the BEST ACTOR OF THE YEAR Award along with ten other awards for his latest move with famous actress Anzu Mizaki. We will be back here with an interview with the two co-stars next week. This has been a M-News Entertainment exclusive!"

A smirk formed upon the lips of the man sitting in his bright red office chair as he flipped off the Entertainment News channel. The man had shoulder length, straight white hair and wore a simple red suit, black slacks, and shiny black shoes. Dark red liquid, like blood swished around in his glass as he raised it up to take a sip, the wine tart yet a satisfying taste on his tastebuds.

A knock came at the door and he set the glass down to press a small red button on his desk to let the person in. His grin broadened when he saw who walked in. "Pegasus."

The man, named Pegasus, stood from his chair and walked over to greet his young actor, "Hello, Yami-boy. So wonderful to see you."

Yami gave a slight nod, his eyes stony and unfeeling.

Pegasus gestured for them to sit on the couches positioned in the middle of his massive office, facing outwards to the windows. Yami sat and glanced at Pegasus who continued to smile. "So, Yami-boy, what brings you up here?"

"The interview next week. I don't want to do it."

"Oh?" Pegasus crossed his right leg over his left and laced his fingers together, laying them to rest on his thigh, "And why not?"

"I don't want to do an interview with that she-demon! Ever since we met she's been trying to get into my pants. It makes me uncomfortable and quite frankly I am not attracted to her. You should know that."

Pegasus' smile faded slightly, "Yami-boy, you are aware you are a public figure, yes? You are the dream of millions of fangirls around the world. They look to you and see a handsome young actor, a straight actor, may I add. Now is not the time to put your sexual preferences in the way. I assure you, there will be a time when you will be able to express them but as of now, when you're at the peak of your game, well, it isn't best."

Yami sighed tiredly, "Then when will it be time? I'm tired of hiding who I am, Pegasus. It's frustrating."

"I am merely trying to protect you, my boy. The world is cruel and isn't all that accepting. If they catch word of your...preferences, they will surely eat you alive and that will be the end of your career and well, you don't want that, do you?"

"No…"

Yami shut his eyes tightly. Did he? Was all this worth it? His mind wandered back to that night and he shut his eyes tighter to prevent the tears from falling. No, he couldn't allow his dream...whatever it was, to come crashing down. Yugi wanted him to continue, to live his life for him. It was the only thing keeping him going really. He did all this for Yugi, in hopes that maybe Yugi was out there watching him on the big screens or even finding him in the magazines, that maybe Yugi would change his mind and come back. That's all he'd been hoping for all this time.

If not for Yugi, he would not be where he is now. And at this point in his life, where everything was taking off and he was so successful, he wanted to be able to share it with him and give him everything from the moon to the stars. Hell, Yami would give just about anything to bring back his little one back to him. Because in the end, this life wasn't worth living in without him. It was meaningless. Empty. His dream...has become a nightmare.

"Hello, we are M-New Entertainment! This is Cathy here and right now we have Domino's sweetheart, Anzu Misaki and co-star our Nation's hearthrob, Yami Sennen. So, how have you two been doing?" Cathy turned to the two actors.

Anzu smiled brightly, "Good. We've been good. Happy to say things have been less stressful now that filming is done."

"Well, box offices are selling out on tickets to your new movie. How was it working with each other?"

"Oh, it's been wonderufl! Yami is really a wonderful actor and he has such talent that it's easy filming with him." Anzu turned to Yami who feigned a smile.

"So, Yami, tell me, how was it for you? Did you enjoy working with Anzu."

"Yeah, she's really great. She's a very talented actress."

Cathy nodded and smiled, "So, fans are going absolutely crazy over the romance you two share in the movie. A lot of fans have expressed the great chemistry you two have together and are wondering if you two are a couple in real life."

"No!" Yami blurted out before staring at the two before grinning sheepishly, "I mean, no, we're not a couple. It's great that the fans think we have good chemistry. As actors, that is the type of feel we want to convey to our audience. But we are not dating."

"Yes, that's right." Anzu said, her lips turning downwards before recomposing herself.

"Well, you heard that ladies! That means this handsome crimson-eyed man is still up for grabs!"

Loud cheering and sreaming could be heard just outside the window as thounsands of fans gathered at the news station just to catch a glimpse at Yami. Yami glanced over at his fans and gave a slight nod, smiling slight, sending into another fit of high-pitched squeals.

As he was about to turn away from the window, a flash of violet caught his attention. He snapped his head back to the window and his heart stopped. There beyond the sea of people was the one person he never thought he'd see again. But it was a short glimpse, like the recollection of an old memory, fleeting. He shook his head, thinking he had been seeing things and turned his attention back to the host.

"So, Yami who is your inspiration for acting? Who is the one person that inspired you to be the person you are today? You're smart, you're talented, you're sweet-anyone who might've been the reason behind your success?"

"Actually-" Yami paused abruptly as that flash of violet caught his attention again. He glanced out the window and there again, was Yugi, weaving his way in and out through the crowd of people. Finally, those brilliant purple gems met his for a split second and before darting away. "Yugi…"

"I'm sorry, did you say Yugi?"

Yami lost all logic and reason and bolted out of his seat, out the doors to where his fans welcomed him, scream and trying to reach out for him if not for the security guards. He snapped his head left and right searching for those beautiful amethyst eyes his little one had or the gravity defying hair of his. His eyes searched the crowd, desperately trying to locate him but he was no where to be seen.

Had he dreamt it? Had it all been in his head? But...no, it couldn't be. Yugi looked all too real. Yugi had seen him and he had seen Yugi...so where the hell was he? Yami anxiously ran his fingers through his hair, excited screams and shouts coming from all around him. They all seemed to drown out as he searched for his one reason for being.

"Yugi?" He called out.

Nothing.

"Yugi!"

Yami jumped when he felt a hand on his shoulder and he turned around to find Mahad looking at him sadly, as if understanding. "Yami, let's go back inside and wrap up the interview. We'll go home after and you can get some rest. I've cancelled everything else for today."

"Mahad...did you see-" Yami turned around, hoping to find even a glimpse of Yugi but he wasn't there.

"You miss him and so your mind is playing tricks on you. Come on, let's get you inside before people talk."

Yami shook his head, "No, he was here. Yugi was here. I know it was him!"

Mahad saw the panic in Yami's eyes, the pain, the longing and gritted his teeth. He placed a firm grip on Yami's shoulder, making the latter look back at him, eyes swimming with desperation. "Yami, please. We'll sort this out later."

Yami gulped and looked around once more before nodding slowly, tears brimming his eyes. "I know it was him, Mahad. I know it."

Mahad just sighed and guided Yami back into the building. For both your sakes, I hope it wasn't it.
