Here's my new story! It was going to be a one shot, but I changed my mind. I'm going to make more chapters eventually, but my other story is my main work. Yeah. SO enjoy this, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh because if I did it would be on a beach at sunset with Yami and Yugi making out. Yummy. Anyways.
ON WITH THE FIC!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Yugi?" I called. He walked into the room in his pajamas.
"What's up Yami? You look troubled." Aibou knows me so well. I am troubled. Ever since I came back with my own body I realized females don't appeal to me. I realized I prefer men, and that confused me at first. But now I'm ready to tell my friends. Which is what I was about to tell my aibou.
"Um, I have something to tell you. Something big."
"Well then, Yami. Let's hear it." I took a deep breath. Please, my little hikari. Accept me for who I am and who I like. Of course, I was not telling him my crush. There was no way he'd take that well.
"I, um, I'm, ah, crap. How do I say this?"
"Just spit it out!"
"I'm gay." Yugi's face showed no emotion. Oh, crap. He wasn't accepting it. But then he tackled me.
"It's
about time you came out! Now Tea will stop drooling over you. It's
really creepy how she does that. I'm glad you don't have to live
a lie anymore." I smiled.
"Thank you so much Yugi. Your
acceptance makes me so happy."
"Have you told the others yet?"
"No."
"Why
don't you tell them tomorrow when they all come over for
lunch?"
"Sure. Sounds good." I may as well get it over with.
I just hope they'll accept me like Yugi did.
THE NEXT DAY
"YOU'RE WHAT?? NO WAY MY BEST FRIENDS A FAG!" Tristan grabbed me and pushed me into the couch. Hard.
"Tristan. Stop! You're hurting him!" Joey stood in front of me, protecting me.
"Damn it Yami! There's no way you're a freaking homo! No way!" Tea shouted. "Seriously! WHAT THE HELL!"
"Damn queer." Tristan glared down at me. I curled my arms around my head and closed my eyes, wishing Tristan and Tea would just get out. Yugi was getting really pissed off.
"SHUT UP!! Just because he's different doesn't mean that gives you the right to be complete asses to him!" The yelling continued and I couldn't take in anymore. I ran out of the house, tears in my eyes.
"Good riddance."
"Damn it Tristan!" I ran through the streets as it started to snow. Snow! It's freaking November! The snow started coming down faster and harder. There was a cover on the ground already, getting thicker by the second. I only had a tank top on. The cold was getting to be to much. I tripped, and landed face first in the snow. It's so cold. I started sobbing, but the cold became so unbearable that I forced myself up. Why can't my friends just accept me for who I am? After a few minutes of crying and walking, I found myself at the Domino bridge, and I realized why my directionless walking brought me here. That was just too much, so is this life. And I'm ready for it all to end. Shakily, I pulled out my phone and dialed Yugi's cell phone number. It rang a few times until the answering machine caught the call. Thank Ra, I don't think I would have been able to follow through with this if I actually talked to him. After the beep, I started talking.
"Aibou. This is Yami. Tristan and Tea not accepting me is the last straw, I can't survive this world. It's too confusing and painful. I'm so sorry. I'm standing on the Domino bridge right now as it snows. After I hang up, I'm jumping. I'm sorry again, Aibou. Thank you, and Joey, for accepting me. But now, it's my time to die. Goodbye forever, my little Hikari." I clicked the phone off and set it on the ground. Then I hopped up on the banister, holding the lamppost. This was it. I'm going to die, like I should have 5000 years ago. I let go, and began to fall forwards. But then I stopped. Why wasn't I falling? I turned around to look, and my heart started pounding. Seto Kaiba was holding onto my shirt. Seto Kaiba. My enemy, my rival, and my secret love.
"Yami! What do you think you're doing?" He looked genuinely upset. That was too much. I leaned into him and started crying again, the silent sobs causing tears to soak Kaiba's shirt.
"It was all too much, I couldn't take it anymore." Kaiba wrapped his arms around me and held me close.
"It's
going to be okay Yami. Just take a deep breath, and I'll drive you
back to the game shop as soon as your ready."
"NO! I can't
go back there! They'll just yell at me again!"
"Why would
they yell at you?"
"I told them I was gay, and Tea and Tristan started screeching at me. So I ran away." Kaiba scooped me up into his arms. "Wha-what are you doing?"
"If you can't go home, then you're coming with me to my winter house. I was heading there now when I saw you. It'll be just me and you, so you can clear your head." I nodded. He put me in the passenger seat, and started pulling his jacket off.
"What
are you doing?"
"Are you kidding me Yami? You're blue!" He
covered me in the jacket and shut the door. As he walked around to
the other side, I took a deep breath in his jacket. It smelled so
good, like deep in the woods just after a rain. The driver's side
door opened and Kaiba slid in. I was curious why he didn't have a
chauffeur, but I was suddenly tired, and before I could ask him I was
asleep.
***
I woke up confused and disoriented. Where am I? I shot up in bed and saw Kaiba sitting on a chair next to the bed, reading.
"You're awake." He smiled at me, which sent my heart fluttering.
"What happened?" He frowned.
"You
don't remember trying to jump off of the Domino bridge?" That
sent the memories back into my head.
"Oh. That. Right." Kaiba
threw his head back and laughed.
"I hope you don't mind, I changed you out of your snow covered clothes and into some pajamas of mine. I looked down to see I was in a button up crimson long sleeve shirt and matching pants.
"Thanks." I yawned, and my stomach growled. Kaiba laughed again.
"Come on, I'll get you some food." I slid out of the bed, and followed him down the stairs. When he wasn't looking, I lifted the collar of the shirt and breathed in the scent. "Alright." He said, drawing me out of my fantasies. "What do you want?"
"Um, I'll have a PB and J if that's alright." Kaiba grinned.
"A house stocked with gourmet food and he wants peanut butter. Sure, coming right up." He pulled out the peanut butter and the jelly, and grabbed four slices off bread. For some reason he decided to use a steak knife to make it. I gazed at the steak knife. I wanted the steak knife. The urge was so strong. "Here you go." Kaiba's voice snapped me back to reality.
"Oh, thanks." I said, never taking my eyes off of the knife.
"I'll be right back, I'm going to the bathroom." I watched him walk away. As soon as I couldn't see him, I grabbed the knife and put it to my wrist. Why I needed it was a mystery to me. I pushed down and watched the blood ooze out, slowly at first, but the harder I pressed, the more came out. I kept pushing. The urge to push the knife deeper was overwhelming.
"YAMI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Kaiba shouted at me. I looked at him, shocked, and dropped the knife. The clatter was the only sound in the room. My wrist hurt so badly! Without the knife it just hurt! I grabbed my wrist to try to stop the pain. Tears were streaming out of my eyes.
"Damn it. I'm stupid. I'm sorry Kaiba! I don't know why I did that." Kaiba grabbed my uninjured arm and pulled me to the bathroom. He started running a bath.
"Take
your hand off your arm Yami."
"No!" He ripped it off. I
screamed. The pain was unbearable. "Damn ow!" He stuck my hand in
the sink to wash the blood off. Then he opened the medicine cabinet
and pulled out a first aid kit. Then he pulled out a towel and
pressed it against my arm.
"Hold that there." He commanded. I did as he told. He went into the first aid kit and pulled out gauze. He took the towel off my arm, and wrapped it in gauze. When he was finished, he looked at me, his cobalt eyes filled with sadness.
"Why did you do that Yami?"
"I,
don't know. I'm sorry."
"Alright. Take a bath while I
clean up the kitchen." I nodded and he left. I removed my clothes
and sat in the bathtub. Iran shampoo in my hair, and dunked my head
to rinse it out. Once I was under, I felt that urge again. This time
it was to stay under until I died. I held myself under. My lungs were
burning, but I had to stay under. I was feeling dizzy, and I was
about to pass out when I felt someone pull me out by my spiky hair. I
tried to breath, but the water in my lungs made it impossible. A hand
slammed into my back which caused me to cough the water out. I sucked
in air.
"What the hell Yami??" Seto Kaiba looked me in the eyes. Those cobalt eyes melted me.
"I don't
know."
"Stop trying to off yourself in my house! PLEASE!"
Tears were forming in his eyes.
"I'll try" I whispered.
"Since I obviously can't trust you. I'm going to wash you."
"What?" Kaiba began to cover me in suds. I felt a blush spread across my face, as I put my hands in my lap. I looked at Kaiba to see he was blushing too, trying not to look at my lower half. I looked at myself, and I was shocked. It had been a while since I really looked. I was thinner than I probably should be, a few of my ribs were sticking out. I never had an appetite anymore. I was always thinking to hard to eat. The tan in my skin was fading, I was paler than I used to be. I glance back up at Seto. He looked troubled, like he noticed the same things I did. I suddenly felt exhausted again. I closed my eyes.
"Seto.
I'm tired." Did I just call him Seto? And he let me?
"Alright."
He let the tub drain as he wrapped me in a towel and picked me up. I
leaned against him and closed my eyes. As he brought me to my room I
drifted into a dreamless slumber, since in his arms, I felt safe.

Yami's Dream
"Get
out!" Yugi screamed at me. "I don't want to see your gay ass
around here anymore!"
"But Aibou, where will I go?"
"Hell
if I care! Screw off!" He opened the door behind me and shoved me
through. "AND STAY OUT!" The door slammed in my face.
"Yugi!
Open this door! Please! Just let me stay until the morning! There's
a hurricane out here!"
"See if he cares." I whirled around.
Joey, Tristan and Tea were standing behind me.
"Thank God he finally kicked your queer ass out."
"Joey. Why are you doing this?" Tear were streaming down my face.
"'Cause I hate fags!" With that, Joey grabbed me a threw me into the hurricane. The winds whirled me around for a long time, thrashing me about. Suddenly, it stopped. I was standing on the edge of the Domino bridge, the water rushing by because of the storm. The water turned red when I realized my intentions. I stood shakily on the edge.
"Just jump already. No one wants you around. Especially not me." I turned to see Kaiba taunting me, telling me to jump.
"I, I thought you loved me!"
"Why would I do that?" He took two steps towards me, and pushed me off the bridge.
I shot up in bed, gasping for breath. Oh. It was just a dream. Just a dream. I felt tears running down my cheeks. Maybe I'll go see if Seto's awake. He'll calm me down. I got up and glanced through the door next to mine. I saw Seto sleeping on a bed. I walked in and smiled. His cold façade slipped a bit during the time he's spent with me so far, but while he was asleep it was gone. A small smile graced his lips as he laid there. Maybe I could just watch him sleep for a little bit to calm my nerves.
"Just jump already. No one wants you around. Especially not me." I shivered as I thought of my nightmare. That's when I heard it. The crackle of the fire. I turned at walked to it. The urge to touch it became overwhelming.
SETO'S
POV
I woke to my door opening. Since Yami was the only other
person in the house, I smiled a little bit. He sat down and it seemed
he was just watching me for a short while. I heard him get up, so I
snuck a glance from under my lashes. He was sitting next to the fire,
staring at it. He must be cold. I smiled as I watched him. He reached
his hands out tot the fire, it looked like he was warming them. I
closed my eyes again, just laying there until I heard him yelp
softly. I opened my eyes to see he had his arms in the fire.
"YAMI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
BACK TO YAMI'S POV
I reached towards the fire. It called me towards it. As I first put my hands in, I yelped softly, it hurt like hell. I reached in father, up to my elbows. Soon, I'd light fire and it'd all be over. Kaiba wouldn't need to shove me off a bridge. I shivered again at the thought.
"YAMI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" I turned to see Kaiba running towards me, cobalt eyes full of concern. He wrenched me from the fire. "Why are you trying to kill yourself again?" I started trembling, and he pulled me close to him.
"I had a
bad dream."
"So you decided to off yourself?"
"It's not like that." I took a deep breath and told him what happened in the nightmare. As I finished, I was crying.
"Yami."
He said softly. "I would never do that."
"Why are you being
so freaking nice to me? I thought you hated me!" I looked at him,
and shock flitted across his face. Then his cobalt eyes softened.
"If I hated you, would I do this?" He leaned down and kissed me on the lips, lightly at first, but getting more heated by the second. He nipped at the bottom of my lips, begging for entrance. I happily obliged, opening my lips and wrapping my tongue around his. We wrestled for dominance, and the kiss would have gone on forever except for the fact that we had to breathe. I pulled back, gasping for air.
"Kaiba." I said, breathless.
"Call me Seto." He replied, also out of breath.
"Seto. What was that?"
"Me
kissing you."
"No freaking duh. I meant, I thought, just, I'm
confused."
"I love
you Yami. That's why you need to stop trying to kill
yourself."
"I'll try."
"Sleep with me for the rest of
the night, please. It will give me some peace of mind." (AN: No you
pervs, not what you're thinking. Just
sleeping)
"That's why I came in here in the first place." We
cuddled in his bed. I felt myself drifting. "Oh, and Seto?" My
words were slurring I was so tired.
"Yeah?"
"I
love you too."

Aw…how sweet! I would have made it bunch of separate chapters but there wasn't enough words. I think it's really rushed and suckish.
Bye!
