AN: Peoples! I am so happy with the amount of reviews I got with the last update, if I could bake without burning the house down I would give you all cake! However since I can't bake and don't know where any of you live without becoming a creepy stalker to all of you, all I can give you is my thanks... so thanks! About the drabble: ZOMGBBQ and other acronyms as well! I actually wrote angst! Or attempted to anyway since I usually write fluff and crack.
SilverDragon-Purity: Thanks for your review! Chang'e the goddess of the moon in Chinese mythology, doesn't personify it just lives there.
Enjoy the angst (or "angst" I guess) while it lasts, I don't think I have many planned.
Gone
Yuugi tapped his glasses against the table gently, swirling the amber liquid around the ice-cubes. He brought the glass to his lips, closing his dull, violet eyes as the strong alcohol slid down his throat and warmed his insides. He opened his eyes and looked at the bartender, signalling for another drink.
Yuugi ignored the person that sat on the barstool next to him, he knew who it was without even having to look, it was the same every year. He would try to forget and Jounouchi would come and see how he was.
Yuugi chuckled as he tipped the glass back, letting an ice-cube enter his mouth. He played with the cold cube in his mouth; he snapped his teeth around it, hearing the satisfying crunch.
"Go home, Jounouchi." Yuugi didn't even look at his friend, only started on the next drink waiting for him.
"Yuugi, we need talk about this. For fuck's sake, it's been three years!" Jounouchi waved the bartender away as he pleaded with the inebriated man next to him.
"We don't need to talk about anything. I'm fine and I'll be fine for the rest of my life." Yuugi turned towards Jounouchi; his eyes were crescent shaped as he smiled widely.
"How can you just sit there and smile when you know this is tearing you up inside?"
Yuugi slammed the glass on the table, making the liquid swish violently. He pointed towards Jounouchi.
"Now that's where you're wrong. Nothing is tearing me up inside. I don't feel anything. I can't feel anything."
"Yuugi, of course –"
"No, believe me, I don't." Yuugi paused, staring blankly at the different bottles of liquor in front of him, trying to find the words to express himself, "He was mine, you know? Completely. For all those years, he was with me. And... and then he was gone." Yuugi snapped his fingers together, "Just like that."
"I know –"
Yuugi lifted his hand to stop Jounouchi's sentence.
"You don't. He was my other half and without him... I'm empty." Yuugi stared at Jounouchi, "But you know something, I'm fine. Really." Yuugi smiled again, his features strained to keep the expression. Yuugi downed the drink once more and got up from the barstool. He patted Jounouchi on the shoulder before getting some bills and throwing them on the counter. Yuugi smirked at Jounouchi, his mauve eyes narrowed as he looked at the other man. "You stay, I'm done here."
Yuugi winked at Jounouchi and slipped his hands into his pockets.
He was fine. Really.
AN: Here I usually ask if you enjoyed it, but can you actually enjoy reading angst? Hmm, dilemma. Anyways, don't forget to review peoples, I came to a creepy, lonely library to update (shudders) the only thing in this library, keeping me company, is the PCs. (Paranoia kicks in) I don't think I like the way those PCs and MACs are looking at me. I think I may leave earlier than I expected, damn creepy, empty library keeping me away from my yaoi moments with its creepiness! I'm off to hunt down ever single computer in this library before it comes to life and strangles me to death with its cable of DOOM!
Toodles! (Brings out machete from seemingly nowhere) (Battle cries) Freedom!
Review!
