'thoughts'
===================================================================
It was one of those December nights, cold and wet. Nights like this wrapped themselves around you, whispering in your ears constantly, telling you over and over again that you were alone.
The snow crunched under Jonouchi Katsuya's feet, making his way to a street bench he collapsed onto it. He wore no jacket, and his skin seemed colorless. Blood ran thickly from a cut on his pale face. Blankly, he lifted his hand and wiped it, leaving a long red smear across his cheek, and he sighed, releasing mist into the icy air that faded quickly.
"Damn ... it ..." he murmured, and he twitched slightly. "Damn ... you tousan..." He lay his head back slightly.
-There was a clatter of glass as it was smashed against a shelf. Jou's eyes widened, stumbling back he gasped slightly.-
-"I thought I fucking told you not to come back! Are you stupid?!" his drunken father screamed, holding the shattered bottle of sake threateningly.-
-"N-no...I just..." was Jou's shaky reply.-
-"You're stupid. YOU'RE FUCKING STUPID!"-
-"Tousan -- please --!" Jou shouted. Gravving his shirt by the collar, his father lifted him into the air, his face filled with a rage that twisted his face. He was almost unrecognizable. Desperately, Jou reached out, tugging at his father's arms to no success.-
-"Don't you ever fucking touch me," the man said. There was a sudden moment of silence, then a crash and a cry from Jou. "Get out! I DON'T EVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!"-
-"I live here! Don't tell me to leave!"-
-A slicing pain sensation ran through his face. Jou cried out a second time, feeling the blood run from his cheek.-
-"Now get the hell out of here before I rip off your head with this!"-
-Struggling, Jou pulled himself quickly to his feet, and stumbled out the door into the cold night.-
"Where am...I supposed to go..." Jou muttered, standing slowly. 'I'm so...tired...and numb...' Everything was beginning to fade from Jou's touch. He wandered aimlessly through Domino city, not knowing where he was going, nor even being aware enough to wonder. Everything seemed like a dream, and cold was beginning to fade...like waking from the dream he found himself at a door, raising a trembling finger to knock. There were hurried steps inside, and the door slid open, revealing a familiar tri-haired boy...
"Yug'," Jou said, dazed, and passed out into his arms.
================================================================
"Is he still asleep?" came a gruff voice.
"Hai...I think he got in another fight, jiisan." Yugi tried to smile, but couldn't. "I really hope he's okay.."
Frowning slightly, Sugoroku closed the door to Yugi's room. The young boy lay leaned over his blonde friend, who lay blanketed in his bed. A bandage covered his left cheek, and his eyes were closed tightly.
Yugi, his violet eyes alit with worry, placed a hand over Jou's forehead.
The blonde's eyes snapped open.
Yugi gasped as his friend grabbed his hand violently and shoved him into the floor.
"J-Jou what are you doing?!" Yugi sputtered, massaging his back.
Jonouchi's eyes widened. "Yugi! I-I didn't mean to, I--"
"Jou! It's alright!" Yugi gasped. "Please...just tell me what happened to you..."
Jou's eyes blanked at the request. "What...happened..."
"Please Jou," Yugi pleaded. "You passed out last night, you looked like you got in a fight with a youma --"
Collapsing to his knees Jou wrapped his arms around the boy, and tears drifted down his cheeks.
"I can't...I can't, Yug'..."
Hesitating, Yugi hugged him back, wishing he could help his friend ... but not knowing how. All he knew was the warmth of the moment, and his steadily slowing heart beat.
=========================================================
A/N: No, not the greatest but I'll post the next chapter again tomorrow! (After all I'm reposting it...I have the print out right here...)
Yugi: Ooh the someone's at the door! I'll get it jiisan! Jou: Yug'.... Yugi: Jonouchi! No, I-- ::THUMP:: AAAUUGH!! I'm being crushed EEEP!!!! I CAN'T BREATHE!! JOU--YOU'RE--REALLY--HEAVY!!! JIISAN!!! Sugoroku: Okay, have fun Yugi...::steals sennen puzzle and walks off, leaving Yugi to be crushed::
Ah...the reason for convenient scene endings....
