~*~Crying Alone in the Dark~*~
~*~Don't own, Don't sue, READ!!~*~
Both Yugi and Yami stayed silent.......For a while.
"Yugi, I....um." Yami started, till there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it," Yugi said quickly and running to the door. Yugi opened the door to see that Carlos was standing at the doorway. "Carlos!?! What the hell are you-"
"Relax, I'm just here to watch ya.You know you told me to-" Carlos started, but Yugi cut him off.
"Yes I did say that, but nows not the time." Yugi started to shove Carlos out of the doorway.
"Yugi, what is going on?" Both Yami, who just got there and Carlos, who was trying to stop Yugi from shoving him off.
"Who are you?" Yami asked Carlos, Yugi stopped shoving Carlos and Carlos just stood blankly at Yugi.
"Yami, this is Carlos, he's a friend of mine and he's going to stay with me for a while. Now while you two get acciainted, I'm getting dressed." Yugi made his way through both Yami and Carlos and bounded up the stairs, leaving a confused, concrened Yami and a suspicious, concerned Carlos.
~*~ Minutes later, Yugi came back dressed and ready for school. He grabbed Carlos' arm and practically dragged him down the street without talking to him or Yami in the prossess.
"Yugi, what is going on?" Carlos asked, "YUGI!!"
"WHAT!?" Yugi snapped back, dropping Carlos' arm. Carlos sighed and knelt down to Yugi's level. (I have to admit, the guy who's playing Carlos is pretty tall)
"Yugi. What. Is. Wrong?"
"It's nothing."
"Don't lie to me, Yugi." Carlos gave him 'the eye.' Yugi shuddered.
"Fine....I confessed my feelings to Yami."
Death silence.
"I'm a total loser."
"No you aren't" Carlos offended, pulling Yugi to an embrace. "No you aren't."
"Why didn't Yami answer me?" Yugi asked Carlos. Carlos sighed again and looked at Yugi eye to eye, saphire azure met amythest violet.
"Give him some time Yugi, like you needed time to get the nerve to tell him." Carlos said finally, "He's not going to get a straight answer righ' off the bat."
Yugi wiped his eyes, "Yeah, I guess I could."
Carlos patted Yugi's shoulder, "That's the old Yugi, now let's go."
Yugi nodded as they both walked to school.
~*~ Hours at school, Carlos began his school as an exchange student at Domino High and spent time at lunch with Yugi. Every time Carlos would look over his shoulder, he would see some girls giggling and smiling sweetly at him.
"You know, if Lilly was here, she would be blowing their heads off." Yugi informed. Carlos just blushed at the comment with no comebacks.
Yugi turned around and saw Joey coming towards them, "Oh boy, Joey's comin' over here. Just stay casual, will ya?"
Carlos looked over his shoulder, "Joey?"
Yugi nodded, "Yeah, the guy with the blonde hair."
Carlos saw him, "Ah, he doesn't seem like anythin's goin' his way."
Joey walked over to Yugi and Carlos' table and sat down, glaring at Carlos in the prosses. Carlos looked at the floor in silence. 'Guess I'm going to have a problem wtih him.'
Joey looked at Carlos again, "Sorry that I glared at ya buddy, it's just that I'm not in a good mood today."
Carlos looked up at him and nodded, "It's all good, everyone's not goin' to have their day."
Joey nodded, and held out a hand. "Yeah, Joey's my name, what's your's?"
"Carlos Storm at your service." he took the hand and shook it pretty firmly.
'Man, he's got a good grip.' Joey thought as he felt his hands almost get crushed.
Yugi smiled, "Now that you guys got aquainted, now what?"
~*~
Joey stood outside after school, watching Yugi and Carlos talk near the trees. Joey kept on wondering why Carlos wore that ruby cloak in the first place. He looked at the cloak and saw it's velvet surface shine over the sunset light.
"Anything happened, Joey?" Yami asked, who appeared from the shadows.
Joey turned around, "Yeah, I got some suspicions on that Carlos guy. He seems cool, but what bothers me is that he's wearing a cloak and it has the same latch like Yugi's purple cloak had."
Yami nodded, "Yes, I've noticed that as well. Do you think its something that both are in? Are they in some kind of secret group that we don't know about?"
Joey shrugged, "Maybe, let's watch them and find out."
"Yes...Let's"
~*~
Yugi and Carlos sat near the trees, both in silence, Yugi looked at Carlos and asked him a simple question, "Carlos? What happened to your parents?"
Carlos leaned back into the trees, sighing, "It's a long story Yugi, my mom died at birth, so my dad had to raise me, which was hard, because he was a monestic and he wasn't around much. So I had a hard life, til those damn scientists killed my father when he was trying to protect me from giving me up to them...at least Lilly's grandparents took me in." he blushed at her name. "Lilly was always there for me, we've been friends for a long time."
"That's why you have a crush on her."
"Yep, she was a savior....a guardian angel." Carlos said dreamily. "She's amazing."
"Yeah, she's really nice, really understanding. She's like a big sister to me."
"Heh, guess you could put it that way." Carlos remarked. "Besides, we _are_ two years older than you are."
"Yeah, and that sucks." Yugi pouted, and Carlos just laughed softly.
Just then, Carlos' cell phone rang.
"Damnit, I told them I was on break...but do they listen? Nooooooooo" Carlos muttered as he pulled out his cell phone and answered it, "What?!"
Pause.
"You mean? Are you saying that.........okay, but now?!....okay, if you're so sure." He hangs up the phone and looks at Yugi, "We got work to do"
Both of them get up and run towards the forest.
~*~
Yami blinked, "They're going to the forest...but why?"
"Maybe we'll find some answers...Comon." Joey ran after them, with Yami at his heels.
~*~ Muahahahaha!! I love leavin' you guys like this ^_^ anyways, R/R!!
