Hey guys new one shot yay!
Yugi sat in the middle of his living room, with his high school pictures spread out all around him. He was twenty-five years old now and was currently sitting in his house in New York City. He woke up this morning after having a dream about his old friends and sat down and spread his pictures out all over the floor. He really did miss his friends, but after Yami left his grandpa got sick and Tea got a new boyfriend, and Yugi left and came to America when he turned eighteen because he couldn't take it anymore. It was all too much. But lately and especially this morning he got a horrible pain in his heart and sat down to reminisce on better days.
Yugi was never the best behaved boy in his middle school years. He was hardly ever at school a full week, he was in jail at least four times and he lost his innocence when he was only fourteen. After Yami showed up Yugi calmed down a little bit because every time he went to do something Yami would say 'Yugi think about your actions before you do this' and he would usually stop, but after Yami had left he went back to his old ways.
He picked up a picture of their trip to the lake when they were all sixteen. To Joey it was their first legal road trip, since they had all gotten their license. Tea's dad took the picture, they were all bent over with their arms linked together with huge smiles. Even Kaiba and Mokuba were with them on the trip, but of course Mokuba had more fun than Kaiba did. Joey was the only one without a smile because his face was scrunched up in disgust at the frog on his head. Yugi let out a small laugh and set it aside and picked up another.
This one was him and his parents in front of the game shop, his grandpa was in it too with a huge smile on his face. Yugi smiled at the picture before he let the tears flow down his face. Was his grandfather even alive right now? He asked himself. He had cut all ties with the ones back in Domino. He put that aside to and picked up another one.
This one was of him, Joey, Tristan, Ryou, and Malik leaning against the wall of the old arcade. The police used to tell them they needed a new place to hang out but they never run them out. They wasted all the money they made at that place, but it was always worth it in Yugi's eyes.
The next one he picked up was his graduation picture, they were standing in front of Domino high, wearing their cap and gowns. It was everyone, Joey, Seto, Mia, Serenity, Ryou, Malik, Tea, Tristan, Duke, and even Heba, his twin brother was in it.
Yugi picked up the last one and let a few more tears fall to the floor. It was Yami. He had had his own body before he left and Yugi took a picture of him before he left. He was smiling and leaning against the tomb's stone wall. He loved this picture even though he cried every time he looked at it.
Yugi leaned up against the couch and thought about all the good times he had with his friends. The time he and Tea had wanted to have their first kiss and decided to kiss each other. All the time he snuck out of the house to go to one of Joey and Tristan's parties. All the times he looked out the back door to see his friends running up the street waving their arms at him.
Yugi got up and ran to his bedroom, throwing cloths into a suitcase and packing everything else into boxes. He called the airport and got a flight the next day.
Two days later Yugi was in his truck on the way to the game shop. He drove down the familiar streets with a smile on his face, and then spotted the game shop. He parked and saw Tea walking in holding the hand of a blonde four year old boy. Yugi's eyes widened and he jumped out the truck and ran up to the door.
The last time he walked these doors his grandpa was sick, and Yugi was a heartbroken, trouble making boy but now he is taller, smarter, and happier. Maybe his friends are too.
Yugi pushed the door open and walked in. The shop was empty but he could hear laughing from upstairs. He ran up the stairs and stopped at the living room door looking in.
Tea, Tristan, Joey, Seto, Malik, Ryou, Mia, Heba, Serenity, and Duke were sitting in the living room with his grandfather. Yugi looked at how happy they were and frowned, 'maybe their happy without me' he whispered with a frown. He looked back in to see Serenity holding Seto's hand with a little girl on his lap. Tea had a little boy sitting beside her and a little girl was in Tristan's lap, they too were holding hands. Joey was sitting back with his arm around Mia's shoulders, Malik was holding Ryou's hand, and Heba had a boy that looked just like Yami sitting beside him with an arm around him.
"Tea why so sad honey?" Tristan said with a concerned look on his face. She gave a sad smile and kissed her son's head, "it's just we aren't the full group anymore without Yugi, and I just wish he knew about Yami and Atem" she said with another smile.
Yugi took a deep breath and stepped out from behind the wall and smiled at his friends. "I'm home" he whispered with a laugh. All his friends got up out of their seats and ran over to him giving him hugs and saying 'Yugi we missed you' 'where you been the last six years?' and 'Yugi where were you?'
After his friends stopped suffocating him they sat him down and demanded him to tell them what he had been doing for the last six years. He smiled at them and explained how he started a band, toured America, and everything up to his decision to come home.
Everyone looked at him like he had lost his mind before they began chanting 'sing, Sing' Yugi smiled and stood up.
"I wrote this on the way home in the jet". He took another deep breath again before he began to sing.
Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red
And what the hell is on Joey's head
And this is where I grew up
I think the present owner fixed it up
I never knew we'd ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out
And this is where I went to school
Most of the time had better things to do
Criminal record says I broke in twice
I must have done it half a dozen times
I wonder if it's too late
Should i go back and try to graduate
Life's better now than it was back then
If I was them I wouldn't let me in
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, god, I
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Remember the old arcade
Blew every dollar that we ever made
The cops hated us hangin' out
They say somebody went and burned it down
We used to listen to the radio
And sing along with every song we know
We said someday we'd find out how it feels
To sing to more than just the steering wheel
Tea's the first girl I kissed
I was so nervous that I nearly missed
She's had a couple of kids since then
I haven't seen her since god knows when
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, god, I
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
I miss that town
I miss the faces
You can't erase
You can't replace it
I miss it now
I can't believe it
So hard to stay
Too hard to leave it
If I could I relive those days
I know the one thing that would never change
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye.
Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
Everytime I do it makes me...
Yugi looked at his friends stunned faces for a second before they burst out in applause. "Great Yugi!" they laughed as they got up and hugged him. Heba took the longest and pulled his boyfriend over to him and introduced him. "Yugi, this is my boyfriend Atem" Yugi smiled at him and then looked at Tea. "Why does he look just like Yami?" He asked and then suddenly turned to Tea. "Umm Tea, you said something about Yami" Her face blanked for a second before she turned to Tristan and whispered something in his ear before she turned back around and smiled at him. "Yugi, Yami came back to be with you two years ago with his twin brother" she said all in one breath. Yugi stared at her before he shook his head. "Well where is he?"
Tea opened her mouth to say something but another voice answered instead.
"I'm right here aibou" Yugi spun around to see Yami leaning up against the door frame with a smile on his face.
"Yami!" Yugi screamed before he ran over to him and gave him a huge hug. Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi to, but he didn't have to bend down because now Yugi was as tall as him.
Yugi let go and looked Yami in the eyes, "yep now I'm home" he whispered.
Hey guys review and tell me what you think.
