Shades of a soul - [ Act III ]
By: Lily Maxwell
~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~
(A/N: This "Act" thing was the best thing I've ever used! Like this I dun have to think about titles!! Yami: -_-U Aren't we lazy? Lily: Oh shut up *dies (?!) cause her brother is listening to Britney Spears* Yu-Gi-Oh! Cast: *winces* We're sorry for you...)
"You're the one who came back to me." he smiled, and felt the boy hug him tightly. It took them a few moments in the same position, Yami just feeling strangely happy finding the boy again, and holding him in his arms.
After a little while, the boy let go of Yami (much to his unhappiness) and looked up at him, blinking his eyes frequently because of the raindrops that fell on his face, the moonlight shining each one of them, making the boy's happy face even more... beautiful.
Yami just kept looking at him, never stopping smiling, like in a daze. And it was all this boy's fault.
'Why did he have to be so... adorable?' he thought.
"Did you... really come back for me?" he asked, tilting his head to the side in a real cute way (A/N: Not like Anzu, stupid bitch XD).
"Oh, is this the reception I get? I'm hurt." Yami said, in a mocking hurt tone. The boy blinked, and his eyes went a little wide, full of regret.
"I'm sorry! I-I didn't mean to..." he tried to say, but Yami chuckled and patted his head.
"It's okay, I was only joking." He said smiling, and the boy sighed in relief. "But... is it that hard to believe?" he asked, and the boy looked down, soon after sitting down on the wet ground, not really minding it. Yami copied him and sat beside him.
"I'm sorry it's just... No one... really cares... about me." he said in nothing more than a whisper. Yami's eyes widened. He had to be wrong. No one can be like that. No one can be all alone. If you have a family... at least they must care about you.
'Are you really sure about that?' asked a voice in Yami's mind, and he decided to ignore it. However, it was true.
His parents were always away, and Yami would usually be home, all alone. If it wasn't for his friends, he would be alone most of the time, for he had no siblings. The only sibling he had... died a long time ago. His older sister, Ellian, was his only friend before... she died because of a strong disease. A year later he met Seto, then Bakura, Mai and Malik...
//Being alone hurts... why would someone like him say he's all alone...?// Yami asked himself, but blinked as he got an answer. And it wasn't his voice.
/Because it's the truth.../ the sweet voice replied, and Yami looked at the boy, who was gazing at him.
He had done it again. How...?
//You can hear my thoughts?// he asked himself, and was rather surprised when he saw the boy nod.
"Are you... upset because of that? Will you leave like last time...?" the boy asked, and Yami felt himself smile. He was really preoccupied about Yami leaving again, wasn't he?
"No, I won't leave so soon." He replied, and the boy smiled, nodding.
/What's your name?/ the boy asked in his mind, and Yami shook his head slightly, a bit taken back. He had to ask the boy how he did that. So he could get used to it.
"My name's Yami." He answered, and started to pet the boy's hair. "What's yours?" He asked, as the boy pushed his hand away gently, because he was messing his hair, pouting. Yami chuckled.
"Yugi. My name's Yugi." He replied, pushing his blonde bang out of his eye.
"Yugi.... I like that name." Yami said, looking thoughtful, making the boy giggle.
"Thanks. You're... the first one to say that." Yugi said, looking at the ground, smiling sadly. Yami looked at him, admiring his every detail. The boy was absolutely adorable. Why would he say he was so lonely as he claimed to be?
"Is it really true, Yugi?" he asked, and the boy looked at him, confusion clear in his lavender eyes. "Are you really that lonely?" he asked softly, and Yugi sighed.
"Yes... I have no friends... and I'm mostly alone at home..." he said so softly and low, that Yami had to lean in to listen properly to his words. "Also... everyone seems to hate me..." he continued, and Yami felt even more intrigued.
"How old are you, Yugi?" he asked.
"I'm sixteen." He answered, and Yami gasped.
'Sixteen!? I'm sixteen! He's... my age?' he thought to himself, hoping Yugi didn't hear him. He thought the boy would be 10, or 11... but 16? He was rather shocked.
"I know I don't look like it..." Yugi continued, and Yami brought his attention back to his words. "... that's why so much bullies usually picked on me at school..."
Yami was angered. Why would someone pick on someone like Yugi? He was so sweet, so adorably cute... (okay, so he was admired by his own thoughts about him) why would someone pick on him? Just because he was short? Because he was smaller than a 16 would be?
"I bet you just... haven't met someone worth your friendship, Yugi. But now you have me." he said, not even noticing his own words. When he did...
'Where did that come from?!' he thought.
Yugi looked up surprised at him, and Yami was apprehensive. Why, oh why did he have to talk on impulse like that?
But Yugi smiled, and hugged him, muttering a low "Arigatou" muffled by his shirt, obviously smiling against the taller boy's chest. Yami then hugged him back, deciding not to be so defensive.
Yugi seemed to like Yami, and he needed a friend. Yami didn't want Yugi to be lonely... to be hurt anymore, so he would be with him now. He would be his friend. He would be his guardian. Even though... he knew so little about this boy.
He had never seen him around, except the night he first saw him. He did not know his full name, or anything about his family, school... Or not even why he could talk directly into Yami's mind and hear Yami's thoughts. He did not even know... why he had "kissed" him that time.
But if Yugi didn't want to tell him, he wouldn't keep asking. He would tell Yami what he wanted, when he wanted. And Yami would always wait. Because now, he was Yugi's most precious friend.
Actually, his only friend. And he wasn't alone anymore. That's what counted.
