Melancholy Perfection
Chapter 1: Never Doubt a Pharaoh
A/N:
Hola! Welcome to the sequel of To Touch You! If you haven't read it, go away, read all 35 chaps then come back. If you have then keep going and please enjoy.
As for the name of this one, don't ask, it's subject to change.
Robina: You just finished TTY 30seconds ago…you're doing the sequel already?
Driven: You better believe it.
Robina: Urgh.
Driven: Now we have Marik Ishtar doing our disclaiming.
Marik: Why aren't I in the story?
Robina: We need your Egyptian hotness here.
Driven: Yeah plus you haven't been worked into the plot yet.
Marik: -sigh- driven doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh!
The New Year had come peacefully and Yugi had settled well into grade eleven. It was early February and life was going fairly well. Crash had settled into school and much of the adoption was finalised. The only bad thing, was that Yugi hadn't seen Yami since Christmas.
"Yugi! Stop ya day dreamin' I need your answers!" Joey nudged his friend.
"Oh sorry, Joey, just thinking about…"
"Yami?" Joey asked, softly.
"Yeah…"Yugi nodded, writing his answers down.
"How long has it been?"
Yugi sighed, "Over a month, put it that way."
"You okay?"
"Yeah…I'm alright. Hey, have you seen Tristan's new TV?"
"HE GOT A NEW TV?"
"Boys, quite please!" The teacher hissed.
Yugi lowered his voice, "Yes, it's massive!"
"Could've invited me…"
"Hah, sorry, Joey," Yugi laughed.
RING
"Dismissed."
Joey and Yugi walked out of class.
"Guys! Wait!" Tea and Tristan rushed up and walked with them.
"Hey," Yugi smiled.
"What are you doing this weekend?" Tristan asked.
Yugi smiled, "Hanging with Yami!…hopefully…"
"You ever think that maybe…he isn't coming back…that maybe you need to move on?" Tea asked, softly.
Yugi grabbed his backpack then they continued out the door, "No, Tea. I never, ever think that."
He turned out the school gate and began his way home.
Joey sighed, "I hope Yami comes back, for Yugi's sake. Yugi's tryin' to handle it but him an' Yami are close. Yugi needs 'im…"
Tea nodded, "I don't get those two, but I guess they love each other."
Tristan agreed, "Well you've heard Yugi, everyday he's been talking about Yami, saying he'll be back soon…Yugi probably never stops thinking about him."
Yugi sighed, his friends were awesome but they didn't understand his feelings for Yami. It was true, Yugi never stopped thinking about the Pharaoh, the Egyptian royal who had shown him love, but at the same time shown him hatred and the bitter pain of loneliness.
No matter what was happening, Atem was always in his thoughts. Yugi almost hated himself for being so weak that he couldn't peacefully live without the pharaoh. He kept walking, over the icy ground. The snow was melting and would be gone soon. Yugi Mutou absentmindedly, put a hand to the tiny yin-yang charm hanging from his fringe. He twirled the pendant in his fingers and smiled as he reached the game shop.
"Yugi!" He was greeted by a hug from Chris.
"Hey, Crash. Why aren't you at home?"
"I'm helping."
"Yugi! How was school?" Solomon asked from the counter.
"Good. Here I'll take over the shift, gramps, you go home."
"No, no, no, I'm sure you have homework to get done. You go on home, Yugi."
"Alright, I guess I should study for the biology exam."
"I'll see you soon."
"Bye," Yugi waved and left. He got home and walked inside. He threw his bag don and sighed, getting out a multitude of papers and text books. He dumped them on his desk and sat down, "E for biology here I come…" he sighed.
He started reading one of the text books. The young duellist tried desperately to soak in the information, but the concepts all blended together, jumbling up together. He couldn't get his mind off what Tea had said…What if it was true? He glanced down to his notebook, and then foolishly noticed the only thing he'd written was the name 'Atem' surrounded by hearts. Yugi frowned, "Miss you, Pharaoh…"
He kept hoping and wishing that he'd wake up to the Pharaoh's scent next to him, the feeling of his strong hand, holding Yugi's, his soft lips. Yugi bit his lip, "Maybe he's not coming back…"
He pushed the books aside and rested his head on the desk. He put an arm around the Puzzle, hugging against his blue jacket, which was part of his uniform. He yawned, it was only 5 pm but he was just so tired…No doubt Crash would want to play duel Monsters when he got home. He'd beaten a kid at school the other day. Solomon was leaving in two days and he'd be gone for a while. Yugi closed his eyes, he'd been forced to do gym at school, Yugi's talent did not lie in physical activity and his small stature did not aid with the pole vault. Ah, rest…precious sleep...Even Yugi, despite his tiredness was snapped back to reality when he felt his puzzle vibrate for the first time in weeks. It vibrated softly for almost three minutes. Yugi held it, watching, waiting.
"C'mon…" He urged, he held the puzzle tight as it hummed loudly. He smiled widely as is glowed, bright blue and violet, lighting up the room, "Ah!" He closed his eyes. He was thrown back to the floor with a thud,
The puzzle tossed violently, then went still as a form came into view and the misty blue fog cleared.
Boots, skin-tight indigo leather pants, two belts, tight black shirt, blue cape, toned body, tri-colour spiked hair and a satisfied smirk gracing a determined face.
Yugi breathed out, and slowly got up off the floor, the two of them stood, silent, not touching at all for at least two minutes before Yami stepped forward and pulled his Hikari, desperately into a strong, tight embrace.
