A/N: Hi everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying the summer break. I know I am. I passed all of my exams! Senior year here I come! Anyways here's the next chapter!

Crow mentally thanked the sun for coming up, awaking him from his sleep and nightmares. He didn't get out of bed; instead Crow pulled the covers over his head. He didn't feel Kite in the bed with him. Tears started falling from his eyes at the thought of Kite. Crow curled up in a fetal like position softly sobbing.

He didn't want to leave the bed let alone the room. He wanted to hide away from the world forever. He wished and hoped that last night was not real. Sadly he had the pain to prove it. Crow knew he had to get out of bed soon. He had to make his deliveries, his business has been severely slow so he had to take any job he could if he didn't want to lose his business and his only source of income.

Crow practically forced himself to get out of bed. He walked sluggishly to the bathroom to take a shower. There was no need to take off his clothing seeing how they were stripped away from him the previous night.

After getting out the shower, he trekked downstairs. Hoping Kite wouldn't be there, but sadly he was.

"Where are you going?" Kite asked.

"I have a job." Crow replied in a lifeless kind of way.

Kite then stood up from the kitchen table and walked over to Crow. That's when Crow tensed up, he started to shake, and he didn't why. All the times Crow has been around Kite, even if he hit him, Crow had never shook or froze. He felt Kite's arms wrap around his waist.

"You still want to leave me?" He asked.

'Yes,' Crow thought. "No, I don't want to leave you, Kite." Crow's voice was shaky.

"Good, because I gave you what you wanted last night." A sick smile formed on his face.

"Wanted, that's not what I wanted at all!" Crow yelled as tears formed in his eyes.

Crow was answered by being pushed, hitting the wall followed by a hard slap across his face.

"You don't talk to me that way! Why do you want me to be angry all the time?" Kite yelled back taking one hand and cupping it around Crow's neck. "Do you like it when I hurt you?"

"No, please let go Kite." Crow pleaded and used his hands to pry open Kite's grip on his neck.

Kite snatched his hand off of Crow's neck. He was gasping for air, but most likely relief of not being strangled to death. Kite looked at him with an apologetic look in his eyes.

"Sorry Crow, I promise I'll never do it again."

Crow didn't care about his apology. The only thing he cared for now was getting away from Kite. He could guarantee that he will die if he stayed. Crow stumbled off the floor and made his way out the door. He ran all the way back to the garage. When he got there, Crow didn't get his dual runner; he quietly and quickly ran to the couch and just cried his eyes out.

'What am I going to do? I'm not going back to Kite. And coming out is not something I'm ready for.' Crow thought.

"Crow, are you down here?" He heard Yusei call out breaking him from his thoughts. Crow tried to wipe away the tears from his face, but they just kept coming.

"Crow, are you crying?" Yusei worriedly asked.

Crow stood up without looking at his concerned friend and walked away. In attempt to stop him and get answers, Yusei grabbed Crow's wrist. Just like with Kite earlier, Crow tensed up and started shaking.

"Stop!" Crow screamed.

His breaths were shaky and his eyes filled with shock and fear. Even though it was only Yusei, Crow was scared of him. Nothing was said between the two, so Crow slowly backed away from him and made run towards the door.

Yusei called out for Crow, but it didn't work. Crow was gone. Yusei knew something was seriously wrong.
