Cherry Love~

[CHAPTER FOUR]

[Yami]

I have my hands in my pockets as I followed along Bakura and Marik into the cinema. They were pretty much excited to see the new horror movie and hurriedly drag me near the entrance. "Guys….stop pulling my shirt…." I complained trying to get their grip of me.

"Then hurry up and stop sulking!" Bakura shouted, "Movie is going to start soon!" I rolled my eyes. There were at least ten minutes of the ads before the movie start.

"Marik." A voice called out and I turned around to see a look alike of Marik walking toward us.

"Baby!" Marik grinned, kissing the boy on the cheek before wrapping his arms possessively around the boy's waist, "Guys, meet my boyfriend Malik and baby these are my two best friends, Yami and Bakura." We all exchange our greeting.

"My friends are already inside, saving seats for us. Let's go!" Malik smiled taking a hold of his boyfriend's hand and leading us toward the cinema room. Before the lights dim, I noticed Anzu was sitting beside her girlfriends watching the same movie as well. She noticed me and gave me a small smile and I nodded my head back.

"Malik, over here!" Another male voice cried. I looked around for the sign of the voice through the dim light. It was a boy, standing on a chair and waving frantically. I could tell he have similar hair to Bakura with those long fluffy white hair. I followed Bakura's lead as we made it up to the stairs to meet the boy.

Malik shook his head smiling, "Everyone, this is Ryou." He introduced, "And that's….dude, Ryou get out of the way!" That's when I realised that Ryou had been blocking my view of someone. Someone I hadn't seen in four weeks. Someone who I needed to see. Ryou sat down in his seat with a pout and beside him was Yuugi. Sitting with his legs crossed and dressed in a pair of jean with a cute black and white stripe shirt, he turned to face me. His eyes widen. Several emotions rushed across me. Relieved that he was okay, happy that I was able to see him again, nervous because I had just realised my true feelings for him and curious to why he had suddenly disappeared for four weeks.

"This is Yuugi." Malik said. Yuugi gave a weak little wave and shrunk down into his seat. He adverted his eyes downward and stared at the ground. I did not remove my eyes from him, even as I sat down next to Bakura on the edge of the row.

He looked up from his seat and saw me. His eyes seemed….happy yet in pain at the same time. I raised my eyebrow and mouthed, "What's wrong?" He shook his head and turned towards the screen. I sighed, knowing he wouldn't talk to me with all these people here and decided to just watch the movie.

A chuckle came from Ryou, "Rebecca is behind us and she is staring at you Yuugi. And you say you don't like her." My heart dropped and I turned too looked at Yuugi whose eyes still stayed on the ground.

"Uhh….I'm going to go to the bathroom." He said to his friends, speaking for the first time tonight. He got up and walked up the stairs to get to the bathroom. I sighed and turned back towards the screen, determined to keep my mind off Yuugi for the rest of the night.

[Anzu]

"I'm going to the bathroom ladies." I told the girls, placing down the popcorns.

"Hurry back, the good part is going to start soon." My best friend said. I nodded my head and bounced off towards the exit to find the bathroom. I spotted the sign that read 'LADIES' in the distance. I smiled and skipped over towards the direction and saw someone who I thought I'd never see again coming out of the male toilet. Yuugi was standing no less than 6 feet away from me.

"Anzu" He whispered softly.

"Hi…Yuugi." I gave a perky grin, trying to make the situation as less awkward as possible. I mean, how would you greet your ex-boyfriend's crush?

I remembered the first time I saw him. I noticed that Yami's smile doubled in size as he walked through the doors of the ice cream shop. I noticed how Yami's eyes lit up when he spoke. I saw how Yami paid so much attention to him. It made me jealous. And what made it worse was that he was so perfect. He was beautiful, sweet and just seemed more than perfect for Yami. That led to me breaking up with him for good so Yami could go be with him.

"Hi."

"So talk to Yami lately?" I asked him. I expected that Yami would go be with Yuugi immediately after I broke up with him.

"Uhh, actually, I haven't talked to him for about four weeks now." Yuugi answered, playing with his fingers.

I looked surprised, "Huh?

"I mean, he's your boyfriend so-"

"We broke up though." I said simply and his jaw dropped. I chuckled at his amusing reaction, "About four weeks ago."

"Oh, I'm….I'm sorry to hear that." Yuugi said but I saw his dull eyes light up with relief and joy, "I'll talk to you later." He turned to leave.

"Wait, Yuugi. I think you should know that I broke up with Yami…because…of you." I stopped him. He froze in place and turned back towards me.

"What?"

"Oh, come one. I thought a bright boy like you would catch on. Yami likes you. He did like me, and I liked him but once I saw how he looked and talked to you, I realised that he liked you more. So I broke up with him so he could go be with you. Because that's what he really wanted." I explained to him, "And now I know that you liked him too."

He didn't answer. He was just thinking and slowly walked away. I sighed, as if a huge burden had been lifted off my chest. I did what I could do and now it was up to Yuugi and Yami.

[Yami]

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…" Malik, Ryou and Marik screamed at the end of the film. I chuckled and turned towards the side to see if Yuugi had come back yet. Once again, his seat was empty.

Ryou reached into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone, "Hello? Hey Yuugi. Yeah, we just finish. Where are you? Oh, okay. Get some rest. Bye."

"What was that?" Malik asked.

"Yuugi said he wasn't feeling well and went home." Ryou said. Immediately I felt an urge to ask how he was but I restrained myself to keep from sounding strange.

We went out to eat afterwards. Marik and Malik were paying for the meal. Bakura and Ryou ordered more than enough food just to piss them off. I silently sat next to Bakura and ate my food, my thoughts locked on Yuugi.

"Here's you desert, Yami." Marik said, sliding a bowl towards me. I looked up and saw a chocolate sundae in front of me, the cherry sitting perfectly on top.

I smiled, remembering Yuugi's smile as he ate and his shining eyes as he saw the ice cream. I picked up my spoon and scooped some ice cream. I placed it into my mouth and felt the taste. It was sweet for a second, and then turned bitter. I sighed and placed down my spoon, losing my appetite instantly. I grabbed the cherry and popped it into my mouth, enjoying the temporary sweetness.

I stood there, wiping off the tables and placing chairs up. It was closing time, and I was ready to go home and just sleep.

The bell rang from the door.

"Sorry, we're close." I said over my shoulder as I prepared to take off my apron, "Come back tomorrow."

"Can't I stay? Pretty please with a cherry on top?"

My heart leapt into my throat at the moment. I spun around and there he was. He had that bright smile, that gleam in his eyes and that excited spring in his step. "Hey, Yami."

"Yuugi."
