Do I Know You? by Yaoi Girl
Yamato lowered his head sadly, gently grasping Taichi's hands and pulling them from his waist as he turned and looked up at him, still holding his hands.
"Taichi..." he began, instantly averting his gaze sideways and to the floor as he sighed. "Before you left, this would've been a dream come true for me, but now...I don't really know you anymore. You've been away for so long...you've changed so much, and now you're asking me to be with a perfect stranger. I'm sorry, Taichi...it's just too soon for me after all this time away from you."
The brunette gently pulled his hands from Yamato's and placed them at his sides. "I'm the one who should be sorry. I don't...I don't know why I even said something like that the first day I'm home. But I guess the truth really is that..." he trailed off as he look up to the blonde, who was still looking away from him, looking as though he were going to cry from shear confusion of his feelings.
Yamato's eyes hesitantly met Taichi's when he felt a hand on his cheek.
"The truth is, you're the only person I thought about being with while I was away. You're the only person I was really worried about, because I know how you're feelings can get the better of you sometimes," he said as he reached down and grasped one of Yamato's hands with his free one, gently running his thumb over the slightly raised flesh on the boy's wrists. "I was worried that you'd try to leave me again...every day, every second, asleep or awake, I worried about you."
The soft look in Taichi's eyes and the meaningful words broke Yamato and he began to cry as he slouched against Taichi's shoulder, wrapping his arms tightly around the boy.
A sympathetic look cross the brunette's face, but Yamato couldn't see it. "Shh...It's alright, Yama."
The blonde sniffed and back away slightly a few moments later, once again avoiding eye contact. "I wish that day never would've happened...the fight...the pain...the blood...and then to top it all off, you're the one who had to find me laying there, barely conscious. I never wanted to see your face like that...Even if I did hate you for the fight earlier that day. Even though I hated you at that moment, deep down I couldn't deny that you were still my best friend and would always be there for me, to make sure I was going to be alright...But at that time, I didn't want to be alright...I wanted to be dead, because I didn't want to see you hurt, I didn't want to hear you say that it was your fault that I had brought myself to that."
Smiling softly, Taichi covered Yamato's mouth with his hand. "I don't want to hear about that anymore. You'll have to acknowledge that it will never just go away, just like me. I'm never going to hurt you like that again. And no more crying, please. This is supposed to be our weekend to have fun, not cry over the past..." he said as he wiped the tears away from the blonde's azure eyes and slightly reddened cheeks.
"You're right...I'm sorry..." he said, smiling the best he could while trying to hold the tears back. "How about we go watch TV and order a pizza till later tonight. Hopefully you got enough rest because we'll be out for a while."
"Doing what?"
Yamato didn't answer as he walked past Taichi with a smile and into the living room.
"C'mon, Yama. Tell me already!" he whined as he sat down next to the boy, tugging on his shirt sleeve.
"It's only your favorite thing to do at a large department store that's open 24 hours and at midnight."
The brunette's eyes lit up. "But I thought your dad grounded you from driving because he found out last time..."
"Technically, I still am grounded from driving for another month...but I know where he hides everything and with him being so focused on work and sleeping, he never noticed that I gave him my learner's permit that I 'lost.'"
"I wish I could pull something like that on my parents, but even if I could, they'd find out eventually and ground me even longer. Oh, well. Hey! Didn't you say something about pizza?!"
TBC
I don't really know where the thing with Yamato came from....the whole fight and attempted suicide in the past...oh, well. And what they're gonna do in the next chapter is HILARIOUS!!!! Omg...the first time I was with my friends and we went to Wal-mart and Meijer...woo! Boy, was that fun!
Anywho, I hope you enjoyed. I have a pic of the 'herd' but it's not been uploaded yet, but I'll have it up this weekend.
NO MORE HIGH SCHOOL FOR ME!!!! ^________^
