Joey you know shes not coming back right? yugi asked as he layed next to his friend on the roof of the game shop. She tried to save me from darts that has to mean something joey said as he focused on the stars that shined above him. She was also the one that sent you to darts but i guess that does't mean anything yugi said sarcastily . i sent myself there i was too weak joey said narrowing his eyes. You would't have been to weak if she did't battle you and make you weak yugi said. yugi where are you going with this joey said Turing to his friend anger now within his eyes . All im saying is that she put you through hell and then she just took off yugi said turning to his friend . She was alone and confused and we were gone joey shouted as he looked at the city . Thats just her excuse she made her choice she needs to take resopnseabltiy for it but if she needed us she should have found way to find us but she did't when we needed each other we found each other she did't and you should't tourtre your self by waiting for some one who is not coming back yugi said trying to place a hand on his friends shoulder.
You have no room to talk what about the pharo that left what have you been doing for four years you don't even have a relationship who are you waiting for? joey shouted.
Im not waiting for anyone and at least im waiting for the right person instead of watching every relationship fail all because of one person yugi shouted as he went back into his room . Joey's mind slowly returned to the present as the spring dawn air awoke his senses. Why do i keep thinking about this joey said as he walked to the subway then head lights stuns his honey drop eyes joey dove out of the street just before getting clipped by a motor cycle then the breaks screeched in protest as the rider was thrown forward and into the street . Hey man are you OK joey shouted as ran to the fallen rider don't worry ill get you to a hospital joey shouted as he flagged down a taxi . An hour later a close friend receives a frantic call pulling him from his slumber and his lovers embrace. okay im here are you okay yugi said his voice tight with worry . Yea im fine but shes not joey said as he turned to the blond haired girl that layed in bed. Please tell me thats not who i think it is yugi said taking in the woman's face . yes its mai she found us after all these years joey said smiling brightly. Joey look i know you really wanted to see mai again but this is just a coisedence you can stay with her but when shes better let her go i wont let you hurt yourself again yugi said in a stern tone.

Mia i never wanted you to hear that joey said as tried to pull mia into his arms Joey why are you doing this mia shouted as she pulled away. Because its what should have done in the first place joey shouted as he pressed his lips against mia's.
Mai slowly pulled away as joey waited for her to slap him and when she din't he contued.
When you first left battle city the only thing i wanted to say was how much i cared about you and how much i wanted you to stay. but i did't because i was scared and i let my pride control my feelings. But when you joined darts i knew that i t was my fault because i did swallow my pride but im not going to let that happen again i love you mia ive loved you ever since you helped me in the finals of dulest kingdom joey said looking at her. I love you to joey when you told me what you truly fight for i found someone noble when i thought that no one like that existed mia said kissing joey back. but i don't know what to do now my worlds crashing down again mia said as she layed her head on joeys chest come with me we will figure things out together joey said as he layed his chin on her head then the two walked back to joey's apartment
