A/n: Well, here's the sequel! Yay! Alright, this will be confusing and a long sequel! So, bare with me. I hope it will be up to 30 chapters! Let's try it.
DISCLAIMER: Did I own anything last story? Don't own: Yugioh or "Time after Time" sung by Inoj.
Tell Me I Am Special, Please?
Yugi's
POV
I knew it would be hard...to forget everything. All that he had been through. All the things he said happened in the world of sleep. Of course, she backed him up and told the same story and they both wove a tale of utter confusion and chaos. Three months,huh? I still can't get over that. I mean, is what they say true? I need to know...
"Yami?" I ask sitting down next to him.
He looks up at me and I freeze. How can I find the courage to ask him again?
"Yes Yugi?" He sounds calm but I know it's all an act.
"Are you sure...that all that really happened. And that I really f-forgot you?" Unfortunately my voice cracks.
He nods and sighs putting his head in his hands. "I know we sound crazy but all of this really did happen. I know it did, Yugi."
I look over at Lieren who is silent, trying not to cry. She was in that dream too. The both of them were. But, I still can't phantom that what they are saying is true. It was a dream and nothing more...
"Y-You don't believe us, do you Yugi?" Lieren looks down. "I know it sounds...unreal but-"
"It did happen." Yami finished her sentence and I sigh wearily. Was it more than a dream?
I want to believe it but it is so farfetched! Why would I forget my darkness! Why would I remember Lieren, but not him?
"Yami," My throat is dry. I turn my gaze to his lover. "Lieren, when-"I stop myself.
"When what?" Lieren asks.
I don't know whether I want to say it or not.
"When did you…kill your mother?"
Lieren is silent. I mentally curse myself for asking her this.
"Almost 2 years ago…" She keeps her gaze locked on the floor.
Yami wraps his arms around her and tears fill my eyes. "I'm sorry!" I blurt out. "I'm so sorry Lieren!" I can't stand all the depression. I run out of the room and up the stairs. I flung open my door and jump on the bed in sobs. Why! Why were we screwed!
Yami's POV
Yugi is having another episode. Worst of all he doesn't believe us. I want to scream, but I've done that many times and it solves nothing. I hold Lieren close to me as she cries.
Suddenly, a thought comes to me….
What if we really are crazy!
No.
We can't be.
That dream-
No!
That wasn't a dream!
That really happened and I know it! Lieren knows it!
We are not crazy!
"Or are we?" Lieren whispers.
Shit! Did I say all that out loud? Way to keep a good head for Lieren, Yami. I sigh.
"I am such a failure…"
"No, your not." Lieren looks up at me and smiles through all the tears. "You're just perfect."
I try to smile back, but I can't. Instead, I cry.
I have no dignity left anyway so, why not?
I break down and lose control of my act and of my mask. Once again, I am a child…
A scared little boy…that's all I am…
…That's all I'll ever be….
Lieren POV
My poor Atem, he is so unhappy. I am sad too but, we have to try and forget about what had happened. If we don't….we'll never be happy…
"Lying in my bed I hear the clock ticks and think of you. Caught up in circles, confusion is nothing new. " I stroke his hair and sighbeginning to sing again." flash back warm night, almost left behind, suitcase of memories. Time after sometime you pictured me I'm walking too far ahead, you're callin' to me I can't hear what you've said. You said: Go slow, I fall behind. The second hand unwinds…" He looks up at me.
"If you're
lost you can look and you will find me, Time after time. If you fall
I will catch you, I'll be waiting, Time after time." He sings
so beautifully. And together, our voices can make anything happen.
Out of the corner of my eye, I swear I see Yugi. Sitting
on the top step watching and listening. He wants to sing to but I
know he won't.
"I turn, my picture fades, and darkness has turned to gray…" I look down at my lover again and smile as he buries hisface further into my chest. He looks so young right now…"watching through windows, you're wondering if I'm OK? Secrets stolen from deep inside… the drum beats out of time…"
"Yami?" He raises his head from my chest. His eyes are puffy and red from all his crying. He is so broken. My stomach churns to see the tear tracks on his cheeks. He doesn't look like the strong man everyone thought they knew…only I know the other side of him…only I see his faults. He is open with me and no one else. He is so shy…and fragile…like a little scared child…a small boy.
"What?" Yami's deep voice cracks, making him sound younger.
"I love you." I whisper looking into his teary crimson eyes.
"I know that…"
"No." I say holding his hand. "I would die for you my pharaoh. I want you and no one else. I will never love anyone else, because I have my heart in you…"
Yami smiles slightly. It's such a beautiful smile." I love you too." his voice doesn't crack this time. "If you're lost you can look and you will find me, Time after time. If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting, Time after time."
I smile now and sing with him.
"You said: Go slow, I fall behind. The second hand unwinds…"
He looks at me tears of happiness falling. Slowly he stands and gets on one knee.
"Lieren," He gulps and tears fill my eyes now. "Will you marry me?" He puts his hand in his pocket and pulls out a beautiful diamond ring.
I gasp. It's the ring from the past. The wedding ring he gave me 3,000 years ago.
I jump into his arms and he falls over. "Of course I'll marry you, Atem! I want no one else!"
He sits up carefully with me still on his lap and he takes my hand. Gently, he slides the ring up my ring finger. We both look very happy for once.
"There's more." He says picking me up. He's a man again. No…he's MY man.
Gently he cradles me as he walks up the stairs to our bedroom. The door is open and Yami walks to his closet still carrying me. He bends down and puts me on the floor as he pulls out a sexy lingerie dress. I grin.
"where did you find it!"
"An Egyptian Antique store. It cost me a fortune." He grins. "But you're worth it." His grin widens. "It's also worth watching you put it on."
I get the hint and instantly start pulling of my clothes. Yami walks closer to me and removes my bra. It carelessly falls to the floor as he pulls the lingerie over my head.
"Yami," I pause looking at myself in the mirror. I feel like such a princess! "Make love to me."
Yami smiles but then does something unexpected. He yawns.
I cock my head at him.
"Sorry," He says sitting on the bed. "But, I'm too sleepy."
I frown letting him know that I'm disappointed.
"Aw, don't pout. You'd think I'd want it more. I did, but now I just want to sleep."
I still pout and humph under my breath.
Yami smiles and yawns again.
I smirk. "You really are tired, huh?"
He nods and undoes his pants. I walk to him.
"Need some help?"
He smirks. "Sure."
I pull down his pants and he steps out of them. He throws of his shirt and pulls back the covers. I lay down and he curls up next to me. He's so warm.
"If you're lost you can look and you will find me, Time after time. If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting, Time after time." I sing softly as he wraps his arms around me.
He thinks I don't notice as he slides down the straps to my lingerie. "Tomorrow." he says softly.
I smile, but my smile doesn't last as I look under the covers…
