Yami was known as a stoic, cold person. Hardly anything fazed him. He went through life, blasé and apathetic. That was before he met Yuugi.
Yuugi had come into the classroom, smiling apprehensively. The only open seat was next to Yami. Yuugi walked towards him slowly and sat down.
"Hello, Yami."
Yami knew he should say something, anything. But he was paralyzed. Someone had stolen his voice. He couldn't stop staring at Yuugi. The other shifted slightly under Yami's scrutiny. Slowly, Yami broke free of his temporary paralysis to smile at Yuugi. The whole class stared as this miracle unfolded.
