Story: Behind Jaden's Hazel Eyes

Summary: If you can't tell right away, I thought I'd make another song one-shot fic. Now, can you guess the song? Well, if you guessed "Behind these hazel eyes" by Kelly Clarkson, you're absolutely right!

Anyways, the point in this is I was watching a spiritshipping amv with this song, and thought it'd be... nice to make a fan fic.

Yes, I am supposed to be working on the other stories I have up, but as you can see, I'm way too lazy, lol

Disclaimer: I own nothing related to YuGiOh G/X nor Kelly Clarkson and her songs... If I owned YuGiOh G/X, you can definitely believe me when I say there would be not so much het hints and more yaoi or POSSIBLY yuri, even though I can't think of any yuri pairings off the top of my head.

Anyways, on with the story time! Enjoy!

Italics are the lyrics!

Mostly cause fan fiction had to mess up my beautiful spacing and I didn't really feel like fixing the spacing. Yes, I am lazy, and I like it!


Seems like just yesterday

You were a part of me

Jaden sighed as he looked up into the sky. It had been a week since he had to leave his secret crush. Yes, he did mean Jesse Anderson and all his beautiful glory. 'No, not beautiful...' thought Jaden softly. 'More like... stunning.'

I used to stand so tall

I used to be so strong

Currently, the poor duelist was out for a really early morning stroll. Looking up into the moons' bright light, Jaden guessed it was somewhere around 3, or maybe 4. He could never truly tell. Jesse was better at telling the time from looking at the sky.

Your arms around me tight

Everything, it felt so right

Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong

Tears stained the bridges of his eyes, threatening to spill down his cheeks. He could still remember those warm arms around him. He could remember feeling like he was in heaven whenever he was around the bluenette. He could remember the feeling of wanting to tell Jesse just how he felt for the other duelist only a couple hours before they were transported to that alternate dimension.

Now I can't breathe

No, I can't sleep

I'm barely hanging on

Those words from the song ran through his mind over and over as the song continued. Yes, he did have his MP3 with him, his headset sitting lazily on his neck. Personally, he wasn't a real big fan of Kelly Clarkson, but he could not help downloading it when he got home.

Here I am, once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it, can't pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up, deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

The poor brunette couldn't hold it back anymore. Tears soon began to hit the brunettes hands as Jaden covered his face to keep any possible (though unlikely) passerby's to see one of the best duelists at Duel Academy crying over by the beach.

I told you everything

Opened up and let you in

You made me feel alright

For once in my life

Jaden sniffled at the thought of the next verse that was sung. Why couldn't he get poor Jesse out of his mind? For Pete's sake, he ran out of class just the other day because Jesse was mentioned. Luckily, if his friends had tried to chase after him, either someone stopped them, or they never found him.

Now all that's left of me

Is what I pretend to be

So together, but so broken up inside

Jaden cried harder as he remembered something he had brought with himself. Reaching in his pocket, the brunette pulled out something hard and medium sized, wrapped in a white and slightly crusty with crimson, handkerchief.

'Cause I can't breathe

No, I can't sleep

I'm barely hangin' on

After he unwrapped the handkerchief, the brunette bit his lip tenderly and pulled up his right sleeve. For once, Jaden had been glad he remained in Slifer red dorms. The colors blended easier, and almost no one noticed.

Here I am, once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it, can't pretend

Slowly, Jaden squeezed his eyes shut as he dug the sharp pocket knife into his flesh, created a new wound atop of his already scarred arm.

Just thought you were the one

Broken up, deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

Sniffling, the brunette tried to stop his crying, but was very unsuccessful. His eyes by now were glazed over and he did not notice as Yubel, one of his many duel spirits, tried desperately to stop him.

Swallow me then spit me out

For hating you, I blame myself

Seeing you it kills me now

No, I don't cry on the outside anymore

Anymore...

Pain seared through the new wound as tears spilled into the cut. The salty substance began to sting his arm, but he didn't stop as he led the pocket knife up his arm.

The knife was led from his wrist all the way to his shoulder.

"Please, Jaden, stop!" Someone screamed. The voice sounded familiar, but Jaden couldn't place faces with voices anymore.

Here I am, once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it, can't pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up, deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

Slowly, he felt one of his spirits had gone for help, but the brunette wouldn't let them anywhere near. "Bersinatrix." Jaden called, looking up into the sky. "Could you... get Jesse please?" Jaden asked her as she appeared by his side.

Not wanting to crush him, the woman nodded and pecked her master on the forehead. "Of course." she said before retreating back into Jaden's mind.

Here I am, once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it, can't pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up, deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, Jesse had been watching. Why? Well, because he had found a way back to the real world.

How did he manage that? Not even he knew. He just woke up one day and found himself back in reality.

But in case it was all some flux that would be jinxed or something like that, he stayed away from Jaden.

No matter how much it hurt him inside.


Sea: Yes, I know it's rather... depressing to say the least, but that's how it was meant to be. If you think this should be more than a one shot, or should have a sequel that brings the two together, go ahead and tell me.

Can't wait to hear what you all say. Love you all!
