TITLE: I Understand- Stop Pretending

AUTHOR: Kami Beverly

FANDOM: YuGiOh

GENRE: General

RATING: PG

WARNING: Yaoi

DISCLAMER: I don't own anything.

            I can tell Yugi notices that when I look at him, my eyes are a little softer, and when I

talk to him I'm a little quieter, and when I'm around him, I'm a little more subdued. And every

time I get a bit more uncomfortable with my feelings for him he says something that'll calm

me, but it's not quite important enough to make me think he might return my affection. Don't

think I haven't noticed he never goes far enough- or how the way he looks at his yami

matches the way I look at him. But I know he's trying to keep me from understanding I'm only

his friend, so that I don't get too depressed. So, when he says something that won't push me

away, but won't pull me closer, I take it with a smile and pretends it doesn't hurt a bit more

every time.
