Reviews would be nice, but you don't have to.


"Rgh… that's the last time I ever hire a replacement secretary." Kaiba growled to himself just as he finished some paperwork. She was completely messing up everything, not picking up the phone or responding to emails. This was the last time he brought someone in when Yugi left.

On another note, why had he left anyways? And just in the middle of the work day? This made Kaiba almost furious, no one just left, and without him knowing about it. He had half a mind to call Yugi and demand why he left, but then again, he didn't really care that much why he left, but the fact that he did. This was the first time Yugi had ever just left work. He didn't seem like the one to skip, this made Kaiba almost question it. He was trying to push Yugi from his thoughts, but who was he kidding.

Even though Kaiba acted like he hated Yugi, and yelled at him, deep down he had feelings for him. Very strong feelings that he tried to shove away, but they were threatening to overwhelm and suffocate him.

Ever since Yugi had started working here, there had been something different about him from everyone else. Yugi worked hard, he was always so happy and kind to everyone, and he could light up a whole room with his smile. At first Kaiba hated Yugi for the first two and denied the truth of the last one, he would never admit to that, it would always stay buried in his thoughts. As much as it didn't seem like it, he enjoyed Yugi's company, he felt somehow comfortable every time Yugi walked into his office.

Then when he left, the feeling of comfort was gone, at first he ignored it, but it eventually got him thinking. The process of discovering his feelings had been long and irritating since he rather just keep them locked away. He found more and more he actually liked having Yugi work for him, sometimes Yugi would already be here before he even showed up. Then when he walked through the door and saw Yugi smiling at him from behind his desk, his day would always somehow go more smoothly. Like Yugi put some kind of spell over him, he might actually believe that if he didn't know any better.

Yugi leaving early didn't make any sense. Why would he? What could possibly be more important? This morning he had even been ten minutes late, did it have something to do with that? Was he just having an off day? No matter, that didn't mean he could skip work without telling anyone. Having to cover for Yugi, made Kaiba consider firing him, but his conscious wouldn't let him. Deep down he knew he'd miss Yugi, as much as he didn't want to admit it, he would.

He could always call Yugi, he had most of his personal information like address and number, but what was the point? Plus that would make it seem like he cared, and that was the last thing he wanted to show.

Kaiba stood from his black chair, feeling the muscles in his legs stretch finally from sitting for so long. He turned slightly to gaze at the large window that took up his complete back wall. He was able to see the whole city since his office was on the very top floor.

He didn't know what he was going to do about Yugi, he couldn't just let him off the hook, that would be too unlike him. Then neither did he want to completely yell at him, because afterwards he always cringed thinking about it. Hurting Yugi's feelings wasn't something he enjoyed, or really understood since he didn't have many of his own. Even if he did, hurting Yugi was never worth it. As much as he didn't want to, he knew he did anyways.

When his phone suddenly started ringing obnoxiously he turned to glare at it. He walked closer to his desk, pulled it off the receiver, and placed it to his ear. Before he even had time to speak, someone else was already talking. They sounded frantic and completely out of breath, not to mention there were what sounded like hundreds of other muffled voices in their background.

"Is this Seto Kaiba?"

"Who's asking?" he snapped back. This was his company, who else were they expecting to answer? If he actually had a trustworthy secretary, maybe them.

"Right now it doesn't matter, is Yugi Mutou there?"

Who was this? Why would they be asking for Yugi? Kaiba was tempted to just hang up since he felt like it might be some kind of prank, but decided to humor himself. "No, he's not here. He left early. Now tell me who I'm talking to!"

"Shit!" the other yelled, there was a pause and the one of the line began speaking to someone else, or more like yelling at them before speaking to Kaiba whose patience was running very thin. "My name's Yami, Yugi's in serious danger right now, I don't know if he's done it already or not, but you've got to get to his house. Now."

Kaiba glared. How dare this Yami tell him what to do, no one told him what to do. "You obviously don't know who you're talking to!" Kaiba growled angrily. "I don't take order's."

"Would you get over yourself for five seconds to care about someone else?"

Kaiba took a moment to consider again just hanging up, but he was curious about something Yami had said. "What did you mean by "I don't know if he's done it already or not,"?"

"Yugi emailed me a goodbye letter, he's going to commit suicide!" Yami shouted. His voice instantly broke with the words "goodbye" and "suicide".

Kaiba was speechless, but he realized that Yami couldn't be telling the truth, this had to be a joke because Yugi would never do that. "That isn't funny, now tell me the truth!"

"That is the truth! And if you don't get to him now it may become a reality! I'm at the airport in downtown Domino right now, I was planning on coming over to visit him but I got his email. I won't make it to his house for another hour, and I know KaibaCorp is only ten minutes away from his apartment. Kaiba, you need to get over there now! You're the only one who can stop him right now!"

Now that was very hard to believe, Kaiba was sure that he was the last person Yugi wanted to see. "Yeah right."

"Ugh, Yugi was right, you are damn stubborn. Look Kaiba, Yugi is in love with you, he has been for a long time, and if you show up there before it's too late, I know you can save him! Please do this for me, and do it for Yugi. He needs someone right now, he needs you."

Kaiba actually almost believed that speech. There was no possible way Yami was telling the truth, Yugi would never commit suicide, he was always so happy, and neither did Yugi love him. How could he trust Yami? He didn't even know what kind of connection he had with Yugi. He wasn't going to believe a complete stranger that easily. "Do you expect me to just believe you?"

"Damn it Kaiba! Don't you care about Yugi? He could be dead but your too preoccupied trying to be right to care! He loves you! Me and him are like brothers, he tells me everything! He told me all about you! Don't let him go through with this Kaiba! I know deep down you have to care about him! You need to push past that stupid ego of yours and actually help someone else who's in desperate need of saving!"

Kaiba growled angrily before slamming the phone down fuming. How dare that brat speak to him like that. He stood glaring long at the phone like trying to light it on fire with the intensity of his glare.

"Damn it Yugi!" he yelled eventually, running towards his door and out of his office.

xXxXx

When Kaiba reached Yugi's apartment, he was amazed at how small it was. Compared to his mansion, he couldn't even imagine anyone living here.

Kaiba wasn't in the mood for knocking on the door and waiting for Yugi to answer. Yami had gotten to him, telling him Yugi planned on committing suicide, there was no way, but he had to make sure he was alright. Kaiba reached for the handle of the door in an attempt to turn it, but of course the door was locked. He resorted to his second option, Kaiba backed away from the door to deliver a strong kick right above the door handle. Hearing a sort of snap, then the door slowly crack open.

He pushed it open and instantly, he was met with the living room, but more importantly, Yugi.

The boy was standing in the living room, just nearly ready to down what looked like five pills of some kind at once.

"Yugi!" Kaiba yelled, Yami had actually been right. He'd been ready to overdose pills.

The smaller instantly turned, his eyes wide but filled with tears. His face was completely crushed, it was a pathetic sight, Kaiba had never seen Yugi look like that, it almost didn't look like him.

Kaiba approached Yugi hastily, gripping his wrist with the pills in it which Yugi closed so that they wouldn't fall out. Kaiba glared at Yugi, pulling his wrist harshly with a result of Yugi crying out.

"What the hell do you think your doing? Is this your answer? Are you too weak to face your problems, instead taking your own life?" Kaiba snarled furiously. He couldn't believe Yami had been right about this. He didn't understand what could have made Yugi want to do this, but he planned on finding out one way or another.

Yugi was sobbing now, he had turned his head away from Kaiba while tugging desperately on his wrist. "Y-You wouldn't understand! J-Just let me g-go!"

Kaiba's grip only tightened. "Do you really think I'm going to let you go so that you can kill yourself?"

Yugi suddenly turned to face him again, tears streaming down his face. "Why would you care if I did? Why are you even here?" he cried exasperated.

"I'm here because someone named Yami called me and told me you planned on committing suicide. I didn't believe him at first until I saw this," he gestured to Yugi's hand that held the pills. "I'm not going to let you kill yourself."

Yugi's eyes widened. "Y-Yami… he… he called you?"

"Yes, and he told me everything." Kaiba replied. "Now drop the pills and I'll let you go."

"No! I can't stand living anymore!" Yugi began fighting Kaiba again, eventually he broke free from Kaiba and started to run towards the bathroom. Kaiba was faster though and grabbed Yugi's shirt to pull him back then pull his arms behind his back and keep them there. Yugi continued to struggle. "Let me go! I have to!"

Kaiba stayed silent, letting Yugi run out of steam before trying to speak with him. He couldn't believe he had felt this way and kept it inside, seeing this side of Yugi was strange, it made Kaiba wonder if this was really Yugi or not. He wasn't acting like Yugi and neither did he look like him, his skin was so pale, he already looked dead.

Eventually Yugi calmed again, or at least stopped trying to break free. His head dropped and his body shook with pain.

"You wouldn't understand… no one does… I… I'm pathetic… I don't deserve to live anymore… I'm a loser and no one cares about me…" Yugi started, he sounded so forlorn, like his words were really coming from his heart. "My best friends are dead… they died four months ago… and since then I've been alone… I can't make friends… no one can replace them… I want to be with them…"

Kaiba listened to Yugi's words, actually feeling something, but he wasn't sure what it was.

"I can't move on… I just want to die."

Kaiba then let go of Yugi, who seemed surprised, he turned to stare up at Kaiba who spoke with a glare.

"Then do it, if you want to die so badly then go ahead." Kaiba growled.

This made Yugi's eyes swell even more. "You really want me to die? You mean you don't care if I do? You lied to me…?"

"If you really think that no one cares about you, that your a loser, and pathetic, then maybe you should, because that is nothing but a bunch of bullshit. Yami must care about you, he called me didn't he? And I came here, I've been trying to stop you, why do you think I would do that?" Kaiba yelled, crossing his arms. "If you think no one cares about you then go ahead."

Yugi stared up at him, he said nothing for the longest moment, until finally he opened his hand, gazed at the pills in his hand, and dropped them onto the ground. "I… I… I just don't want to me alone anymore!" Yugi managed to say past his quivering lips. Yugi dropped down onto his knees, his tears washing down his cheeks. "I can't take feeling so alone… you don't know what it's like to have no one… to feel like no one wants you around or cares… I feel like no one would care if I died…"

Kaiba moved down onto one knee in front of Yugi, he took his cheeks in his palms so that their eyes connected. "Actually I do, but I don't show it. I know what it's like, but Yugi… your not alone, you've never been alone." Kaiba pushed past all of the barriers in his mind that kept him from saying these things, but if he didn't, he knew Yugi would never calm down. "Yami is there for you, and I'm sure where ever your friends are, they are with you too." he felt so stupid saying these things, but it seemed to be helping Yugi. His breath wasn't as rugged as before.

"And, I may not act like it, but I… I really do care for you." Kaiba admitted, then ridded the space between his and Yugi's lips. Kaiba could feel Yugi practically melt, like he'd desperately needed this. Yugi's arms wrapped around his neck, and Kaiba managed to swipe away a few tears on Yugi's cheeks with his thumbs. The kiss at first was cold, and the only thing Kaiba could feel were Yugi's tears, but eventually it warmed so much that it was to the point where he never wanted to back away.

Unfortunately breath came short and they were forced to break. They both breathed a little heavier now, and Kaiba almost smirked seeing Yugi's cheeks tinted pink. Yami had been telling the truth about that too, that Yugi loved him.

Yugi brought himself up higher on his knees so that he was able to hug Kaiba. His face burred into his shoulder. "I don't want to be alone anymore!"

Kaiba was a little taken back by this, but soon he found himself wrapping his arms around Yugi and holding him back. "You never were."
