Lilpopsplash here! Man I haven't been on her in a while and to say it's great to be back! I missed writing stories. Anyway, I have been trying different things with my writing. I know it's hard for me to finish stories so, now I write out the full stories before posting. I have 3 stories (including this one) completely finished and 2 others that are almost done. This story was inspired by one of my favorite songs, Ordinary Day by Vanessa Carlton, hence the stories name. So here you go, the first chapter of Ordinary Day.
"Talking"
'Thinking'
Song (if any)
[Yami to Yugi (mind link)]
{Yugi to Yami (mind link)}
Oh and I DO NOT OWN YUGIOH!
Yugi was cold. Like freezing. But is was a inside cold as well as an external one. It was reasonable to feel this way as Yugi was lying down on wet grass in the middle of nowhere. No, that wasn't true. To Yugi this place was an oasis. From bullies, stress and any other problem that badgered him outside of this here, like his loneliness. Yugi was forever alone, stuck with only his grandfather and his games. Not to say that the unusually short teen didn't love his grandpa very much, but at some point even he wanted more. He wanted a friend. In his 16 year's of living, Yugi had only ever had one friend, Y. That wasn't actually the boys name but for the love of Ra, Yugi could not remember his name. He knew he was a boy, that much he could remember, as well as his breath taking ruby eyes but that was about it. Any other detail around the boy had withered away with age and time. Yugi often wondered about the boy, his only friend. He wondered where he was and if he thought about Yugi as much as Yugi thought about him.
That was one of the reasons Yugi loved the night sky. No matter where the boy was, the possibility that he could be looking up at the same sky thousands of miles away intrigued Yugi. So much so that Yugi had a large fascination with the sky and sneaking out way after he was supposed to be in bed to come here. Sometimes he drew, other times he just lied there watching the stars much like he was doing now. Today was Sunday, in a few ours it would be Monday and he once again would be thrust back into hell, otherwise known as, school. He decided to stay here tonight, it wasn't uncommon for Yugi to go missing during the weekends anymore, so he was sure his grandpa wouldn't mind. So Yugi began to get comfortable, pulling out a sleeping bag from a nearby hiding spot as well as some fruits for diner. Apple and plum trees littered the area and he loved the fresh fruits more than anything. As he settled down Yugi's eyes slowly started to slid close. He fought the pull for a while until he finally gave in, music from a piano playing somewhere in the background.
The next time Yugi woke up, it was morning. Spring up, Yugi looked towards the sun to see it was almost midday. Yugi had never slept pass time! He had always woken up in time to rush home, get dressed, and spirit to school, just getting to his seat as the teacher walked in.
"Ohhhh Ra! Grandpa is going to kill me!" The tiny male squeaked. His voice hadn't matured yet,which wasn't a surprise compared to his body. He quickly rolled up his sleeping bag and started over to his hiding place when he began to realize things. 3 things to be exact. First, he noticed, was that his hiding place was nowhere to be found. Second, after taking a closer look at his surroundings, he found he wasn't even in the same clearing he was in before. Last, but certainly not least, Yugi noted a boy who looked very similar to himself. He had Yugi's spikey hair, his pale skin, and his shortness, though he was a few inches taller then Yugi. The mysterious male had familiar ruby eyes, and features like Yugi's but his face was a little sharper. He would be intimidating if two of which things did not take place.
"Yugi! I've been waiting for you." A calm, soothing smile slid over his face, making him seem more approachable. His eyes sparkled as if he was meeting up with an old friend. But that was the thing. They weren't friends. Yugi didn't even know this boy, though in the back of his mind there was some type of familiarity that was associated with him. Yugi took a step back. Even though the boy didn't look mean, Yugi had learned the hard way that the outside appearance could lie, especially when dealing with strangers.
"H-how do you know my name?" Yugi asked, he was unsure how the stranger would react. If he defied to get violent, Yugi knew all he would be able to do is hope to outrun him or hide. To his surprise though, all the boy did was chuckle.
"Come on Yugi, don't tell me you don't remember me! And to think I've come all this way for you. You're going to have to try harder to remember." Yugi knew he should have been frighten, but now he was truly curious. The man had said he had come for Yugi? Why?
"Who are you." Yugi was desperately trying to pry his mind open as to find out why this mysterious boy felt so familiar. The taller of the two frowned a bit.
"Don't try to remember too hard Aibou, eventually you'll recall everything. For now call me Atemu okay." Yugi felt a pulse go through his whole body at the word Aibou. He didn't know why, but it felt like a heartbeat. A slow heartbeat.
"Okay Atemu. Why are you here. Where are we? Do you know how to get out of here?" Yugi asked, if Atemu could get him out of here then maybe he might have time to get to school right after lunch. Maybe he would have missed half a day but at least he would be there. But to his utter annoyance, Atemu started chuckling at him. This chuckle turned into full blown laughter when he realized Yugi was serious. Huffing, Yugi turned from the hysterical man and began walking away. So much for getting help.
"Fine, if you won't help me I'll find my own way out. "Yugi snapped, tears threatening to leak out of his eyes. Of course this guy wouldn't befriend him, why would he. He continued walking until a hand grabbed his shoulders and spun him around. He came face to face with those ruby eyes that seemed so much more beautiful up close.
"Hey Yugi, don't take it that way. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I was just joking okay. I'm sorry for laughing at you, it wasn't right." Yugi nodded as Atemu wiped away any stray tears. "Now come one. There's a lot of explaining to do and holes to fill in." Yugi opened his mouth to respond but Atemu beat him to it. "And don't worry about the time. After all, the only thing we've got is time." He replied with a ominous smirk on his face. Yugi found it strangely attractive.
