Chibi: Okay, this is a short chapter, I know, but I had a little bit of a problem with school and I was already working with chapter 11 in my head. Well, making two chapters is not a good idea, but I promise chapter 11 is longer!!!
Warning: Akunadin is an insane person!!!!
'I love you too Yugi. You're my White Rose and my koi'., Yami whispered and he smiled when Yugi smiled. He kissed Yugi's forehead again when his little White Rose had fallen asleep. He soon followed his White Rose to dreamland. To the land were love could be expressed in more then only words. There it could be said with more then feelings and emotions. There love went further then beyond anything.
Bathing was good. The water was warm, comfortable. Especially when your lover had joined you in a warm bathtube with soap and himself. Yami licked Yugi's wet neck. Yugi giggled and washed himself.
'No more licking for you'., Yugi said and giggled once again. He rubbed the soap onto his neck and chest, making Yami whine.
'But you taste so good'., Yami said and hugged the teen closer. Yugi wriggled in the soft embrance. Yami chuckled, but kept his face away from the white soap that smelled like strawberries. Yugi continued washing himself and Yami, because the older teen wouldn't let go off him.
'Let go or I will do something'., Yugi warned with a mocking glare. To Yami it was more of a soft, adorable pout.
'Like what'?, Yami asked. Yugi turned on the cold shower. Yami let go off him and he crawled away in the warm water to the other end. Yami turned off the shower again and looked at Yugi, goosebumps on his skin. He softly growled and Yugi giggled. In less then a moment Yami grabbed Yugi's feet and pulled the other teen to him to kiss Yugi senseless. Yugi moaned, his arms found their way around Yami's neck and he opened his mouth for Yami's wet tongue. They played till air broke them apart.
'I hate you'., they both said at the same time.
'Because'?, Yami inquired softly. He had raisen his eyebrow and looked with a small smirk at Yugi.
'Because when you kiss me I allow you everything. I will then approve of anything you do'., Yugi said and hugged the taller teen. He lay his head on Yami's bare chest, hearing the soft heartbeat. Yami chuckled, Yugi heard the soft rumbling.
'Then we are more alike then we thought, my White Rose. I wanted to say the same thing'., Yami said softly and he washed the soap off Yugi's shoulders and neck. He squirted some soap on his own hands and washed the younger one properly. Yugi eyed him and grabbed his hands suddenly. He took the soap and made two handprints on Yami's strong chest. He giggled softly at Yami's somewhat confused look and suddenly felt two hands press on his own pale chest. Yugi looked down and saw two handprints too. Yami smirked.
'Now you're mine'., Yami said.
'No way! It's my temple, you can come in to pray but you don't own me'., Yugi said and giggled.
'My mark is on you'., Yami stated and chuckled when Yugi washed his 'mark' away. Yugi giggled too until he felt Yami press another handprint on his soft skin. He mock glared at the older one and then grinned wickedly.
'War'., he whispered softly and he grabbed a handfull of the white, creamy soap that lay upon the water in the bathtube and he threw it at Yami. He covered Yami's shoulder in the white substance. Yami blinked. And blinked again, before throwing the soap back. A real soap fight was declared.
----
'What happened to your home'?, a voice asked. It was around noon and they had finally have the courage to open the front door. Especially Akunamkanon had the feeling he didn't want to open his own frontdoor because he was scared for what he would find. Akunadin looked up and then down at him.
'There's soap on your bathroom window'., he said in a soft voice. Akunamkanon groaned softly at this. And he wouldn't want to know Yami's reaction, no, not at all. He opened the door and he let Akunadin step into the hallway. He followed his brother and sighed. The hallway was clean.
'I'LL GET YOU FOR THAT'!!!, was a shout that came out of the kitchen.
'YOU STARTED IT YAMI'!!!, came another yell and there were giggles and chuckles and yells and some loud thuds and crashes and someone sprinted pass by them and then crimson eyes were staring at the two males in the hallway.
'Hello Yami. Had a nice foodfight'?, Akunadin asked ever so calmly. In his inner he felt anger boil. He felt hatred nearly take him over to kill the teenager in front of him, but he couldn't let that happen. Not on this very, very day of peace and a screaming teenager.
'Yami. Yami! Calm down'!, Akunamkanon called out. Yugi ran down the stairs again to see his lover panic. And Yami was not one to panic quickly, no, not at all.
'Yami! What is it'!!??, Yugi called out and he hugged the with food layered teenager. He hugged his lover to calm the other down, but the other wasn't calming down. No, Yami's mind was freaking out, because this wasn't happening. No, this wasn't happening. His dead uncle wasn't standing in their hallway, looking at him like he had always done so before he would try and hit him. Before he would get the chance to duck and run to Pa. To hide or later, to hit back.
'You… You're… You're dead'., Yami managed to get over his lips in pure poison. Akunamkanon sighed deeply. This was going to be a long day.
'Yami? Listen to me. A miracle has happened on the day we thought Akunadin would die. He came back to live in hospital, but he didn't dare to tell us, but now he has done so. He told me already, let him tell you too'., Akunamkanon said. Yami shook his head, he didn't want this. Yugi looked up, seeing the look of fear in Yami's eyes. Yami pulled Yugi behind him.
'You're suppossed to be dead, so stay dead'!, Yami called out and he walked up the stairs. Keeping his face towards Akunadin. He had known one day his live would be crashing down upon him, but he had hoped not like this. Yami hated memories. Especially the ones of the bastard. Of the once dead-one. Yugi was pushed up the stairs by Yami and for one reason he couldn't blame the other, because he felt it. He had felt a dark aura around Akunadin that had nothing to do with the man. No, it was something that reminded him of Ailhak. It had something special, but this time, something dark too.
'Yami, what is it'?, Yugi asked. Yami was panting, like he had been running for miles and miles, but when he looked at Yugi… Yugi didn't blame him for being so scared. He had seen in his dreams what Akunadin could do. He had seen the beatings, the bruises and the pain of Yami too.
'He cannot be back! We burried him'!!, Yami called out, angered to say the least. Yugi sat down on bed, he too was still layered in food. Yami sighed and then let himself fall down on the ground with a loud 'thud'. Yugi winced, that would be a bruise on Yami's rear end.
'I felt something'., Yugi softly murmered.
'Something that nearly screams decay, horror and terror to one's life? If he ever touches you Yugi scream as loud as you can and I will come to finish him off'., Yami said. Yugi sat down next to him, shaking his head and stroking Yami's clean hand. Yami sighed.
'No. I felt the same thing that is also around Ailhak, but I cannot place it. It's something strange to me, but with Ailhak it feels good. With your uncle, it doesn't. He has harmed you Yami, I know that, but this is something else. Something I have never seen in any of my dreams'., Yugi said and Yami sighed.
'What have you seen'?, Yami asked.
'How he abused you for the main part. Eventually you could hit back, but I was so sad everytime again'., Yugi said and softly sniffed, while he thought to not have the right to cry. Yami had been in pain, not him. Yami hugged the smaller one close and then sighed.
'I think we need a bath and then clean up the house. I had hoped to do that without watching eyes, but I guess it doesn't matter'., Yami said and he raised up with Yugi. That they were both taking a shower was heard in the livingroom where Akunamkanon sat with his brother.
'He still doesn't like me much, does he'?, Akunadin asked.
'No. I don't know why, but Yami is overreacting at this point. Don't worry brother, after he's calmed down I'm sure he wants to talk'., Akunamkanon said. Oh, how wrong he was.
----
'There, done'., Yugi said and he threw the cloth in the basket. It had taken them the whole midday to clean up the bathroom and the kitchen and Yugi was pretty sure he would never recover from this nightmare.
'Yeah. Remind me of never having a fight with you'., Yami said and chuckled. He got up from the floor and hugged Yugi. Yugi smiled and they walked over to the livingroom where Pa and his brother were still talking. Yami hadn't allowed him to get any closer then necesarry to his uncle and Yugi didn't have the urge to do so. Silently he crept forward to Akunamkanon.
'Thank you very much. I loved it to stay with Yami, but Ailhak is awaiting me so I'm going home'., Yugi said and he smiled while making a small bow. Akunamkanon excused himself with his brother and together with Yami he saw Yugi out. Yami reacted over dramaticly, but Yugi played along.
'You can't leave me now'., Yami whispered. Yugi giggled so softly it wasn't heard by others, only Yami.
'But I don't want to leave you! I'm forced to'!, Yugi said and he clung to Yami, faking tears. Yami hugged back and burried his nose in Yugi's hair. He smelled the sweetness that was Yugi and sighed content.
'I'm not going to let you go'., he softly said.
'But what if I need to eat'?, Yugi asked then slowly. He didn't want to let go neither, but he needed to go home. Ailhak was waiting. Yami shrugged.
'I'll feed you'., he said.
'And that will end up in another food fight'., Yugi said then and giggled again. Yami chuckled softly and hummed softly.
'Boys'., Akunamkanon softly said and that seemed to snap Yami back to reality. Yugi blushed a deep scarlet, but both let go of each other. Yami gave Yugi a soft kiss on his lips and let go. Akunamkanon chuckled softly when Yami had finally let go of the younger boy and started to wave. Yugi waved back with a cute smile and with a floating hand - kiss he rounded the corner towards home. Yami sighed softly, how he would miss that warm body of the small Yugi against him in the night. Akunamkanon closed the door.
'I'll start dinner, okay? Just be nice'., Akunamkanon said and he ushered Yami into the livingroom. The moment Akunadin looked at the teenager anger, rage and a wave of emotion to kill the teenager washed over the older male, but nobody seemed to notice. He was very good at hiding things. Akunamkanon walked over to the clean kitchen and he heard Yami say not to make another mess of it. Softly he chuckled, but further he didn't hear anything. Akunadin looked at Yami, Yami glared back at him.
'Don't even think about me liking you back'., Yami said and he crossed his arms in front of his chest.
'Don't even think that I will treat you nice when my brother is gone. You know I hate you'., Akunadin whispered. Yami just snorted.
'Does Seto knows of your comeback already? Bet he will be furious'., Yami said with a light smirk. He knew Seto had hated the orphanage, but Akunamkanon couldn't have taken care of three boys at that time. They often had the change to stay over for a couple of days, but not more. That was until Gozaburo Kaiba had adopted them. Seto was still furious about the fact that he had to go to orphanage. If he knew now that his own father had abandoned him… Yami couldn't help but smirk. He would love to know the face of Seto.
'No, he doesn't know yet'., Akunadin said. Yami snorted.
'Typical'., was the only answer Akunadin received. Akunadin was bathing in fury and rage. Yami looked at him. He thought he knew what Yugi was talking about. There was another presence around his uncle, very different. He knew it somehow, but it was so vague that he wasn't sure. At least, this presence seem to hate him too. Yami intesified his glare.
'What are you hiding'?, he asked. Akunadin looked at him.
"So the little brat knows"., he thought softly.
-Let him find out. I need to kill him for the protection of this world. He's as evil as possible-, a voice said in the back of Akunadin's mind.
--You told me he killed your wife by birth, still he seems to remember something of you. Hate, maybe?-- Akunadin asked back. There was a deep snort and he could feel the other smile evilly.
-That brat is your un-cousin. You always hated him, why again?- the other asked. His voice was deep, but filled with hatred and mock.
--Because he's not welcome in my family, Khahim. I was against his adoption because I knew he would threaten Seto's place. And he did. Seto and Mokuba, my boys, had to go to an orphanage because my brother wanted to adopt that bastard. At that time I already knew I would die, but not when. I wanted my family save and then he came falling for Heaven to be picked up and be loved.-- Akunadin said back to the other. Khahim snorted.
-He's not welcomed. Nowhere.- Khahim whispered back. Akunadin snorted, snapping Yami out of his own thoughts.
'What is it, my uncle'?, Yami asked, his voice dripping of poison.
'Nothing you need to know'., Akunadin countered, his voice as dark as Yami's. Yami had the urge to just kill his uncle where he sat, but knew to control himself, like he had always done. Except with the beatings. They kept sitting there, until Akunamkanon called them to come over to eat in the kitchen. Yami raised up, but with hesitance showed his back towards his uncle. He had the feeling he could be killed any minute, but maybe he was getting paranoid. Yup, that must be it.
'Had a nice chat'?, Akunamkanon asked. He knew of nothing. Yami had never dared to tell his Pa about the fact he was nearly beaten to death by his uncle. He hadn't dared to tell because he didn't want his Pa to worry. Yami flashed him a quick smile and chuckled softly. Akunamkanon knew however how much hate there was between the two men and Akunamkanon sighed deeply. Akunadin entered the room too and they started a very quiet dinner, one where Akunadin explained how he came back. Yami thought of how right Yugi had been.
---
'Mom would love to have a chat with that man'., Yugi murmered in his room. He was staring at the covers on his bed. The soft shade of the moon was shining through his window, which he hadn't closed off with curtains. Thinking about his mother made Yugi feel sad and a lone tear trinkled over his cheek down.
"Mom... Why don't you come to me? All Angels can go to Earth, why not you"?, Yugi asked sadly and with a pained face of grieve he looked up at the sky. It had a few clouds and he remembered playing on them when Cassidy hadn't been watching him. His father had never watched him. Always working, always dead. Yugi sighed. His father had died a long time ago, when he got his wings. Like his wings were the replacement for his forever working father. Then he thought back about Akunadin. He just couldn't place that strange feeling around that man. His eyes were so evil, like those of Ushio.
'Are you not asleep yet'?, a voice then suddenly asked and Yugi jumped out of his skin. With a hand covering his heart he looked at the door. Ailhak stood there, looking curious and worried. He blinked and then sighed softly. Could he ask her? Would he dare?
'Yugi? Are you all right'?, Ailhak asked. Yugi looked up at her.
'No. Not really. Yami's uncle is back from the dead'., Yugi whispered. Ailhak looked at him. Then she sat down next to him.
'That is possible'., she said. Yugi looked at her.
'You have an aura around you that I don't know. Akunadin, Yami's uncle, has that too. But in that aura is so much anger and hatred. In yours not, why is that'?, Yugi asked. He hoped she didn't see him through with that question. Ailhak smiled, Kahlia had told her about everything that would come with Akunadin. Without Yugi's knowing, he was already been seen through.
'I don't know. Sometimes, when Angels die, they come down to Earth to help other Humans to live again. Akunadin could be taken over by a very angry Angel'., Ailhak said. Yugi stared at her and he blinked twice. How she knew this all, he didn't knew, nor did he asked.
'Okay'., he said softly. He didn't knew it had been Kahlia who had spoken to him. Who had explained him, because he didn't see the change in Ailhak's eyes. Because he didn't see the colour change to a soft green.
'Why did you asked me'?, Ailhak asked. She was curious, maybe she had to see this man so she could talk to him. So they could share what they have been through with their second live. Yugi looked at her.
'Yami… He doesn't like his uncle very much, but what I understood of what he told me… Akunadin-san was suppossed to be dead, but he isn't. He's somehow still alive'., Yugi said and sighed deeply. He looked at the moon, his mother could have helped him. She could do everything to calm his nerves. Ailhak kissed his cheek softly and laid him down.
'Go to sleep Yugi'., Ailhak said softly. Then the phone rang. Ailhak blinked and then raised up. Yugi followed her on his bare feet. The phone was handed to him.
'Someone who wants to talk to you'., she said and smiled. Yugi smiled too and took the phone from her.
'Yugi'., he said softly.
-Hey Yugi, it's Ryou. Sorry to bother you at eleven in the night, but I had to talk to you. Remember the day Yami harmed himself?- Ryou asked. Yugi answered a small 'yes'. He did not wanted to be remembered. Ryou sighed.
-I told you something like that had happened before that. I really wanted to talk about that with Yami. I know he won't like it, but the other's need to know too. They really, really, really need to!- Ryou called out in the phone. He stopped Yugi's murmurings and protests. Yugi stopped when he heard 'the others'.
'What is with the others? They don't know'?, Yugi asked curiously. Ryou sighed deeply. It was clearly to hear.
-Not everyone. Malik knows, but he doesn't dare to tell. That time was the first time we saw Yami having a breakdown. The day he hit Malik-
Err.. yeah. I guess I'm kind of giving away what the next chapter will be about, ne? I hope that one will be a good one. I shall try to give all of my emotions of depression to Yami in that chapter so he can be restored by the others.. And Yugi... hahahahahahahahahhaha.. okay... just, please Review!
