~*~Yugi's POV~*~
What am I going to do? I can't risk letting them find out about my past! Crap! CRAP!!!!
I look around to see if anyone will help me out of this, Yami looks mad but I think he'd enjoy this. I've seen the way he looks at me, and being half angel half demon I can sense what others are feeling. I can feel my face flush, what am I going to do? How many times have I asked myself that in the last minute? I don't know. Maybe I should just leave, or take the penalties, they couldn't be half as bad as this. Oh wait. This is the alternative if one were to not want to complete the given dare. Just wonderful.
Joey nudges me with his elbow, trying to get me to do it. This is when Yami intervenes telling Joey that he should just pick another dare.
I'm eternally grateful to the boy, he just saved me from embarrassment and having to show them something no one should have to even hear about.
Never mind Joey still wants me to do it. I feel like crying, it's not like I haven't before. Every night I cry, wondering why it had to be me. Sure, I'm away from the pain but it comes back every night, in the form of nightmares. Normally the nightmares don't come around when I'm around others but that's only once a week when I'm hanging out with the gang.
I shake my head, telling Joey that I can't, yet he still tells me I can and grins. I sigh and am about to tell him no again when someone comes to my aid, not someone I expected either. Seto Kaiba. He tells Joey to lie off and that the game is over. I'm forever grateful, and that's what I tell him, he just grunts and scowls.
~*~End POV~*~
Tristan grinned and shrugged. "So, what are we going to now?" A rumble erupted through the room, a certain blond grinned and laughed sheepishly.
"What? I'm hungry!"
"Your always hungry." Stated Bakura deadpan.
"Yup!"
Seto sighed and started towards the kitchen. [Blah: Yes, they do have a kitchen so they can make their own food, but who says they will?]
~*~Time change~*~
Seto and the others sat around the living room, empty boxes of pizza piled up on one of the many coffee tables. The groups attention was focused on the TV, re-watching final destination #1 for what must had been the four thousandth time within the last few months.
Yugi had never really liked all the violence but was still intrigued by the plot line. The movie was almost over, after this they were going to watch one or two more movies before getting ready to crash. That was one of the good this about staying at Seto's place, there were no adults to tell them when to get to bed.
When the movie was finished the group of boys put in another, this time it was screamers, one of their favorites. Yugi didn't really like the gory parts but lived with it.
By the time the movie was over darkness had laid itself over Domino city, casting the streets into a world of shadows.
Yugi had fallen asleep around half way through the movie, and was now curled up next to Yami. Yugi sighed in his sleep and shivered; seeking out warmth he cuddled up to the closest source of warmth, Yami's chest. Blushing a deep scarlet Yami tempted to wake the sleeping angel, unknowing to how close his thoughts about Yugi being just like an angel were to being right. Yami gently shook Yugi's shoulder and then again, the boy was a deep sleeper.
Yami looked to the others for help.
"Nope! Your on your own buddy!" Yami rolled his eyes at Joey then turned his attention to the sleeping boy, he really was an angel. [Blah: If only he knew, * Sigh *]
Yami turned Yugi so he was facing the couch and stood, stretching his arms in front of him. After hearing a couple satisfying 'cracks' and 'pops' he leaned down taking the much smaller boy in his arms, cradling him like a baby. Yugi smiled in his sleep and burrowed his head into Yami's chest. Yami couldn't help but smile.
The others had already left for the room; it was specially made for them with seven beds lining the walls. It was only used on the nights that Seto had his group of friends over. Before Yugi had come to Domino high they had had a considerably smaller room but moved to a much larger one when Yugi had needed a place to stay at Seto's. At first Yugi had taken awhile to warm up the group, always shying away and keeping to himself. He still did, but had gotten better.
When they were in the room Yami set Yugi down on his designated bed, which just happened to be right next to Yami's. The room was large enough that the beds were fairly far apart, if one were to whisper from one bed to another it would be hard to hear. After around three more failed attempts to awaken Yugi, Yami gave up. Yami was just pulling back the covers to put the other boy under when he realized it would be quite uncomfortable to sleep in all the buckles Yugi had come accustomed to wearing. Yami looked around for one of his friends, most of them being in one of the many bathrooms getting ready to crash.
Yami's eyes rested on the house owner himself. "Hey, Seto. Do you have a shirt I can put on Yugi? I don't know where he keeps his and I don't think he would want to sleep with all those buckles on, I sure wouldn't."
Nodding Seto opened a drawer and pulled out a large white t-shirt. It would be baggy but it would work. He threw it to Yami and continued what he was doing. Yami also took note that he'd never seen any more then the boys hands, not one inch of his arms for he always wore either a sweater or what he was wearing now; a black long sleeved buckle filled shirt.
Yami took in a deep breath then let it out slowly, blowing the bangs away from his face. Yami set to work on one of the many buckles, unclasping it and then moving onto the next. 'There must be a thousand stupid buckles on this shirt!!! I don't know how Yugi can stand it.' He thought frustrated, this was taking forever! When he finally came to the last one he sighed happily and undid it. Propping the smaller look alike against the headboard of the bed he started to pull off the black shirt, blushing all the way. After the shirt was off, it had taken quite the struggle, Yami smiled a bit, about to pull the other, more comfortable one on. Yami's smile faded from his face to one of absolute horror. Scars. They were everywhere, crisscrossing allover the pale chest before him, Yami also noticed that Yugi's ribs were showing more than he supposed they were supposed to, that explained why the boy was so light. Taking a step back Yami turned and walked stiffly out of the room, searching for his friends.
Hearing the location of the other boys coming from just down the hall he walked towards them. When he met them in the hall there Yami could feel tears start to prickle his eyes. "Guys, I think I need to show you something . . ." Yami trailed off, leading his friends back to the bedroom. Noticing that Seto was now with the group he supposed that sometime while he'd been trying to unbuckle Yugi's shirt the brown-haired CEO must have left the room. With out any words Yami led them to where Yugi was now laying on the bed, white shirt laying forgotten off to the side.
Joey gasped and his eyes widened, he couldn't help the anger that ran through his veins. "What?" Yami shook his head, and closed his eyes.
"I don't know. Do you think . . .?"
Joey nodded. "It's possible."
Ryou fell to his knees, unable to support his weight any longer. Bakura, seeing his newly found love on his knees knelt down beside him, wrapping his arms around Ryou in a comforting way.
Yugi groaned and blinked open his eyes, was there a breeze? That's when he took notice his group of friends gathered around him and the two silver haired boy's hugging on the floor. It took Yugi's drowsy and still half asleep mind a few seconds to process the fact that he was missing his shirt. Scrambling up Yugi crabbed the duvet and covered his exposed chest.
Yami stepped up to the teen. "Yugi, what? Where did those scars come from?"
Yugi bowed his head and closed his eyes, shaking his head wildly. Tears were falling on the duvet, soaking in and leaving dark spots in their wake.
"Yugi . . . please tell us!" Yami approached the small boy, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Yugi. Please! Tell us. Where did you get those scars from?"
Yugi sniffled and looked up, crimson and violet met. Tears were streaming down Yugi's soft, child-like face, it was a sad sight to behold. Yugi sniffed again, trying to hold back the freely falling tears. "I-I can't!" Yugi let out a heart-wrenching sob and buried his head in his hands, tears leaking through the cracks in between his fingers and falling in his lap.
Yami gave a sorrowful look and bent down, pulling the crying boy into his strong arms, letting him cry on his shoulder. Sitting down on the bed Yami brought his hand to Yugi's back and rubbed small circles around, attempting to calm him. It was a few minutes later when Yugi's sobs finally stopped and all that could be heard was deep breathing and the soft mummers Yami was whispering in Yugi ear.
Yami slowly pulled Yugi away from his now dampened shirt and looked him in the eye. "Now, will you tell us?" Tears built up in the tri-colored haired boys eyes and he nodded. Yami offered a small smile and turned the other boy around in his lap to face the others who had stood there patiently, sad looks on their faces.
Yugi took some more deep breaths. "M-my father." He said. "Used to hit me, a lot." A single tear escaped his eye, soon followed by many more and the dam once again broke, sending the poor boy into sobs. Yami turned Yugi around in his arms and embraced him, whispering 'It's ok' over and over in his ear rocking back and forth. Calming down once again Yugi leaned against Yami's shoulder.
"I'm sorry Yugi . . . we- why didn't you tell us?"
Joey nodded in agreement. "Do, do you still live with him? I mean, you never talk much about you home, and never about your family."
"No, I-I haven't seen my father for two years, around half a year before I met you guys." 'Thank Ra' "I, ran, away." It was a lie, but, would they believe him if he had told the truth? Probably.
Ryou got up from his position on the floor, pulling Bakura up with him, that was when he noticed two long thin scars running down either side of Yugi's spine, just before his shoulder blades. Shrugging it off he beckoned to the others to follow as he sat down beside Yugi and Yami, reaching over he wrapped his arms around both of them. Not long after the rest of the gang, yes, even Seto and Bakura were caught up in a hug.
When they finally parted Yugi smiled softly and whipped his eyes. "Thank you. I don't know what I'd do with out friends like you guys." 'Well, that's not fully true. I went with out friends for the first fourteen years of my life, but still.'
"I think everyone here could agree that we should get some sleep?" Seto stated/asked.
"Yeah." Joey yawned.
Yugi nodded but stayed leaning against Yami's shoulder, occasionally sniffling. It felt as though a heavy weight had been lifted from his shoulders now that he had told his friends half of what his father had done, but he knew they would never find out what else his father had done to him, hopefully.
The others left for their beds, Ryou and Bakura slipping into the same one, wrapped in each other's arms. When the light was out, Yugi and Yami still sat.
Yami started to pull away to go to his own bed but stopped when Yugi whimpered and clutched onto Yami's chest. "Don't leave me." He whispered.
Yami sighed and rubbed a few small circles around Yugi's lower back. "Do you want me to lay with you tonight?" Yugi nodded against Yami shoulder. "Ok then, I will." Taking notice that Yugi wasn't wearing a shirt Yami blushed, looking around for the t-shirt Seto had giving him, when he found it he grabbed it and pulled away from Yugi. Yugi took the shirt and put it on, feeling kind of weird since he was so used to wearing long sleeved shirts and sweaters.
Yami pulled back the covers and slid Yugi and himself in, spooning Yugi against his chest. "Good night, Yugi."
Yugi closed his eyes and sighed happily. "Good night Yami."
