/.../ Yugi to Yami

//....// Yami to Yugi

*~It's been a long, long time since I looked into the mirror

I guess that I was blind

Now my reflection's getting clearer

Now that you're gone things will never be the same again~*

Yugi glanced into the mirror, hoping to see his yami's reflection by his side once more, but there was nothing there besides his tearful reflection. His once joyful and playful lavender eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep, and his soft cheeks were streaked with tears. His shoulders slumped with sadness, and even his spiky hair drooped with the young freshman's despair. Ever since Yugi had revealed his feelings for the former pharaoh, Yami had left the house and hadn't returned to the Motou residence since that night. That had been two weeks ago.

*~Flashback~*

Yugi had finally got the courage to ask Yami if he could talk to him alone, and Yami had readily agreed. Now Yugi had to figure out a way to express his feelings.

"I....I...love...you." Yugi finally whispered, looking directly into Yami's ruby eyes to try and discover his reaction. Yami had his game face on, but Yugi didn't have to wait long. Yami sat there in silence, not even glancing at his aibou. Yugi's head hung in embarrassment as he realized that his yami probably preferred girls over his weak aibou. Yami's lips parted as if he were about to say something, but he suddenly fled the room without a word.

*~End Flashback~*

*~There's not a minute that goes by every hour of every day

You're such a part of me

But I just pulled away

Well, I'm not the same girl

you used to know

I wish I said the words I never showed~*

Yugi stifled an oncoming cry at the memory and wiped the remaining tears from his face. He changed into a black tee-shirt and Dark Magician boxers, but before he crawled into bed, he grabbed the Dark Magician plushie that Yami had won for him only a few weeks ago at a nearby carnival. He tossed and turned, refusing to let sleep claim him, but eventually his eyelids drooped and still clutching the DM plushie, he fell into an exhausted sleep.

*~I know you had to go away

I died just a little, and I feel it now

You're the one I need

I believe that I would cry just a little

Just to have you back now

Here with me~*

Not long after Yugi had fallen asleep, a shadow was climbing the tree that grew right outside Yugi's window. After much struggling and difficulty, a tired but determined Yami hoisted himself onto a thick limb, staring directly into the young boy's room. He sat there until sunrise, pondering his feelings for Yugi.

*~You know that silence is loud when all you hear is your heart

And I wanted so badly just to be a part of something strong and true

But I was scared and left it all behind

I know you had to go away

I died just a little, and I feel it now

You're the one I need

I believe that I would cry just a little

Just to have you back now

Here with me

Here with me~*

He saw the DM plushie cradled in the sleeping boy's arms, and he couldn't help but grin at the memory it held. His grin faded when he discovered that Yugi had once again cried himself to sleep. He cursed himself for every tear that Yugi had shed because of his disappearance, for every ounce of sorrow and distress he had caused his light.

*~And I'm asking

And I'm wanting you to come back to me

Please?

I never will forget that look upon

your face

How you turned away and left

without a trace

But I understand that you did what you had to do

And I thank you~*

As light from the rising sun hit the window, Yami was jolted back to reality. He dropped from the branch and landed gracefully on the ground below. He fled down the street before anyone could see him and disappeared into a cream colored house.

*~I know you had to go away

I died just a little, and I feel it now

You're the one I need

I believe that I would cry just a little

Just to have you back now

Here with me

Here with me~*
