******************Chapter 2 - Don't Dwell On The Past********************

Yugi woke with a start as something like a door or window slammed shut. He rubbed his eyes, and sat up. He shivered as he noticed that he had slept on top of the covers the whole night, instead of under them. Yugi always got cold too easily, probably because he was smaller than everyone else, and was pretty thin, too. But he didn't eat enough for someone of his age. Yugi stretched for a few moments before he got up, and pulled a shirt over his head. He didn't bother getting fully dressed, because he didn't have school anyway. It was Saturday, and he was glad of that. He had a whole weekend to recover from the trip.

He stared out of his window, to notice that the sun was already up, but still rising slowly. He smiled at the beautiful sight, and left his room. He went down to the kitchen, and sat down at the kitchen table just as Yami walked down the stairs.

"There isn't really much to have for breakfast. I was thinking of going out to eat something." Yami stated as he walked past Yugi, fully dressed.

"Hmm." Yugi thought to himself, careful not to let Yami hear his thoughts.

"Would you like to come along?" Yami turned back to him, a smile spreading across his face. "You would, of course, have to get dressed."

"Alright. I'll be down in five minutes." Yugi jumped up from his chair, and ran up the stairs. "Don't leave without me!" Yugi called back down to Yami when he was out of sight. Yugi got dressed as quickly as he could, and ran down the stairs, nearly running into his grandfather.

"Why are you in such a hurry, Yugi?" Asked his quite tired grandpa.

"Yami and I are going out to eat. Would you like to come along?" Yugi asked politely, he didn't want to exclude his grandfather.

"No, no, Yugi. This is your time to be with Yami. And I am awfully tired. I do not have enough energy to do much of anything today."

"Will you be alright?" Yugi said with concern filling his violet eyes.

"I'll be fine, Yugi. Just go and enjoy yourselves." His grandfather waved to them, and walked back up the stairs. Yugi sighed, and walked over to Yami. He slid on his shoes, and followed Yami out of their home and business.

"Gee, I hope grandpa will be alright." Yugi said, and bit his lip as he thought of how weak his grandpa had been in the past while.

"I'm sure he'll be fine, Yugi." Yami slowed his pace, and allowed himself to fall into Yugi's slow pace. They walked side by side. Yugi sighed.

"Where are we going, exactly?" Yugi looked up to Yami, who was still smiling.

"To a small café. I'm sure you'd like it. They just opened this week." Yugi nodded, and shivered as a cold wind blew past them, blowing a few leaves in front of them. He felt Yami's arm slip around his waist, and Yugi was pulled closer into Yami's warmth. Yugi leaned his head against Yami's shoulder, and they walked in each other's comfort the whole way to a small café on the corner of a small almost deserted street. As they pushed open the door to the small café, a tiny bell rang out, as if to announce their presence. A few people were in the café, sitting down at round tables, talking with each other.

The inside was much bigger than the outside of it let on. There were at least seven tables spread out in the café. One woman stood at the counter, awaiting the next order. Yugi followed Yami to the counter, where Yami ordered a small cup of tea, and a bagel. Yugi ordered a cup of hot chocolate, and a sandwich, he didn't feel much like eating breakfast food anyway. They got their food surprisingly quickly, and they sat down at a table in the very corner of the café.

Yugi sipped his hot chocolate slowly, allowing the warmth to spread across his body, soothing him. He sighed, and leaned back in the chair with a warm smile on his face. Yami drank a few sips of tea, and watched Yugi intently. Yugi looked out the window to the now completely deserted street. 'Why didn't I notice this area before.?' Yugi thought to himself, and he smiled. It may have been deserted, but everything outside of the café was beautiful.

"I missed you a lot while you were gone." Yami half whispered to his hikari, who turned his head, and stared straight into his crimson eyes.

"And I missed you, too." Yugi smiled warmly. Yugi reached over to take a sip of his hot chocolate, when Yami caught his hand, and held it in his own.

Yugi blushed as Yami stared deeper into his eyes until he had to look away.

"School wasn't fun at all with you not around. I hardly wanted to listen to the teachers." Yami said as he let go of Yugi's hand, and sat back into the chair.

"But you need to listen to the teachers more this year. It's our last year!" Yugi looked back up at Yami, with his eyebrows raised slightly.

"I know." Yami sighed, and took a bite of his bagel. Yugi shook his head, and suppressed his laughter. Yami could change subjects so quickly and carelessly. "This is good." Yami took another bit of his bagel, and licked is lips. A smile tugged at the corner of Yugi's mouth as he did so.

"Yeah, they have good food here." Yugi agreed with Yami as he bit into his delicious sandwich. "Too bad it's not cheaper, though. Or more people would come here more often." Yami nodded in agreement.

"I'm glad it's the weekend." Yami sighed, and a smile found its way to his face.

"Yeah, but too bad it wasn't longer." Yugi's face fell as he spoke.

"Don't you remember, Yugi? This is the long weekend. We have a longer time to be in each other's presence." Yami sighed as he thought of certain things, and shook himself out of his little reverie in time to see Yugi's cheeks flush.

"I forgot. I was so busy with the whole trip that I forgot." Yugi blushed again, and felt the need for something to cool him down.

"I know. What were you planning on doing this weekend?"

"Well. Not much, except resting and hanging around at home with you." Yugi smiled, and Yami had to shake off his thoughts again.

"Sounds fun." Yami smirked as he spoke, and looked down at his food. He was nearly finished his bagel, and Yugi had already finished his sandwich. But Yugi still had nearly a full cup of hot chocolate left. Yugi yawned slightly as he went to pick up his hot chocolate, and nearly knocked down the cup. He rubbed his eyes, and took another sip of hot chocolate. "Why not go out with your friends? They haven't seen you yet."

"Well, I can see them any time, really. It's not that I don't want to see them, it's just that I'd rather spend the weekend with you." Yugi said in a small voice, and looked around the small café. A few people had left, and only two remained, deep in a conversation.

Yami sighed, and finished the last of his breakfast. Yugi drank the last of his hot chocolate, and they left the small café behind them. They walked down the deserted street, both deep in thought, thinking of mostly each other.

When they got home, Yugi found his grandpa in the kitchen, with a look of defeat spreading across his face.

"What's wrong, grandpa?" Yugi looked over at him curiously.

"I guess I need to go shopping a little later on for some groceries. I can't find very much food left." He gestured to the bare cupboards, and nearly empty fridge.

"Oh, I'll go, grandpa. You need your rest." Yugi smiled.

"No, I don't. I've been resting all day. You need your rest, Yugi. You just got back from that trip." His grandpa chuckled.

"Grandpa." Yugi sighed as if trying to stop himself from getting worked up.

"Yugi, I need to get my exercise, too. And besides, it would de me good to get out a little bit. Yami did most of the work while you were gone. And I would like to have a turn." With that, his grandpa left them alone in the front hall, and he went upstairs. Yugi sighed, and sat down on a chair.

"So what should I do for the rest of the day? I can't just lie down for the whole weekend!" Yugi sighed in defeat as Yami sat on the arm of the chair, and kissed him lightly on his forehead.

"Yes you can, Aibou. And you are as stubborn as your grandfather. You two are so much alike." Yami chuckled, and spoke in his deep, deep voice.

"No!" Yugi exclaimed, and gave it some more thought. "Well, okay. Maybe a little-"

"A little?" Yami laughed, and shook his head.

"Oh whatever." Yugi propped his head on his hand, and stared around. "I could clean up the house."

"There is nothing to clean!" Yami messed up Yugi's hair with his left hand.

"Alright then. Why don't you think of something to do." Yugi turned to Yami, and pushed a lock of his golden hair from out of his face.

"We could take a walk in the park. We could call your friends and ask them what to do, or we could sit here all afternoon arguing about what to do." Yami leaned onto Yugi so that Yugi was being crushed.

"Yami! Get off!" Yugi laughed playfully as Yami refused, and kept pushing down with his back over Yugi.

"Not until you decide what it is you want to do." Yami finally pushed far back enough so that he was sitting on Yugi's lap, with his arms crossed against his chest, and his eyes closed.

"Alright, alright." Yugi sighed as he was defeated yet again by his Yami. "We could. Go to the park, I guess. But please get off? Yami, you're squishing me! I can't breathe!" Yugi gasped as he spoke. Yami opened his eyes, and finally gave him a small smile. He jumped up off of Yugi in one swift, graceful move. Yugi sunk down into the chair as he breathed normally again. Yami reached out to Yugi with his hand. Yugi grabbed it, and Yami pulled him up. They got their jackets and shoes back on, and walked slowly to the park, just a short ways away from the game shop.

"Have a lot on your mind?" Yami glanced at his Yugi, who looked up at him, startled.

"Looking around here reminds me of three years ago. When we first told each other how we felt." Yugi sighed deeply, and didn't notice a rather large rock at his feet, and tripped over it. He landed on the ground with a thud, and Yami let out a small laugh as Yugi yelped. Finally Yugi joined in the laughter, feeling rather foolish. He stood up, and dusted himself off.

"And you're still as clumsy as you were back then. Only more handsome." Yami pulled Yugi close to him, and wrapped his arm around his waist before his kissed him playfully down his neck.

"Well, a lot of things have changed, haven't they." Yugi rested his head against Yami's chest, and thought to himself.

"Yes, they have. But we shouldn't dwell on the past." Yami put his arm around Yugi's shoulders, and hugged him before leading him over to a bench. They sat down quietly. Everything all around them was completely silent. Except for the birds and a cool wind blowing past the leafless trees making an eerie whistling sounds.

"Help!" A voice rang out over the silence, causing both Yugi and Yami to look up to see where the voice came from. "Help me!" The voice sounded familiar, but neither of the two boys could put their finger on it.

Yugi stood up, and walked cautiously over to the start of the small forest in the middle of the park. Yami followed him close behind.

"Help!" The voice cried out frantically, and Yugi could barely hear another few voices trying to stop the terrified person. "Please! Help M-" The voice was muffled, and Yugi could hear sounds of struggling around a few bushes. They both walked around a few trees into a clearing, and Yugi took a step back in shock, walking backwards into Yami as he did so. Yugi covered his mouth with his hand, and started to remembered everything that had happened three years ago. The night that he was nearly raped.

"Stop it! Stop! Get off!" Yugi got back to his senses, and ran towards the men attacking a boy underneath them. He jumped onto the back of one, throwing the man forwards onto his stomach. He bit down onto the man's hand, and the man yelped in pain. Two other men jumped onto Yugi, and pulled him off of their fallen comrade. Yami got over the shock, and ran over to the attackers, and kicked them both in their shins before punching them in their stomachs. They both let go of Yugi, and Yugi dusted off his arms before he lost balance, and fell to the ground. He looked down at the terrified youngster, and his jaw dropped.

"Mokuba?" He gasped, and pulled the young half naked black haired boy into a protective hug. The boy could only cry into Yugi's shoulder. Yugi watched as Yami knocked all three of the men unconscious. Yami panted slightly as he walked back over to Yugi.

"Where they.?" Yami couldn't bring himself to ask Yugi whether or not they were the ones so long ago who had attacked Yugi.

"Yeah. They were." Yugi felt his heart beating rapidly in his chest as he tried very hard not to remember. His vision clouded over as tears filled his pained eyes.

"Is that. Mokuba?" Yami crouched down beside the two scared boys, and watched as Yugi nodded. Yugi bit his lip as he imagined what the men would have done to Mokuba if Yami and Yugi had never taken their walk in the park.

"We should. We should call his brother." Yugi pushed Mokuba away slightly, and looked down into his eyes. "Where is your brother?"

"H-he's at a m-meeting." Mokuba said through sobs. Mokuba pulled a small black cell phones from his pocket slowly, with his arms shaking. He passed it to Yugi, his hand trembling.

"What's his number?" Yugi took the phone, and watched as Mokuba wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.

"It's on s-speed d-dial." He pointed to the number 1 on the phone. Yugi pressed it down for a few seconds, and held the phone to his ear. He waited a few moments until he heard a familiar and cold voice.

"H-hi, Kaiba. We have a problem. It's your brother." Yugi said slowly, and heard Mokuba's brother on the other line demanding to know what was wrong. "We're in the park near the game shop. We're in the clearing in the small forest." He informed the irritated Kaiba, who merely grunted in response, and hung up before Yugi could say any more.

Yugi was shivering from the cold and the memories as he sat on the ground beside the trembling form of Mokuba. Yami could only imagine what the two were going through at that moment. Yugi grabbed him, and hugged him as he felt himself losing control again. Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist, and felt him shaking. They heard footsteps somewhere behind them, and Seto Kaiba ran out of the bushes with an angry look on his face. He looked shocked as he saw Mokuba sitting on the ground crying, half naked.

"Mokuba?" Seto ran over to his brother, and sat kneeled down beside him.

"B-big brother?" Mokuba swallowed, and looked up at Kaiba with a mixture of happiness and sadness on his face. He cried, and hugged Kaiba as hard as he could.

"What happened here??" Seto turned to look at Yami and Yugi, who were both lost in their own worlds. "Well?" He looked really annoyed.

"It - It was them." Yugi pulled away from Yami long enough to look Kaiba straight in his eyes. Yugi's soft, violet eyes were full of pain and sadness as he looked over at the three men lying on the ground, still unconscious, one still with bite marks on the back of his neck. "They tried it a-again." Yugi shivered, and Yami pulled him closer into his warmth.

"They tried what." Kaiba snapped at Yugi as he followed the boy's gaze.

"They tried to rape Mokuba." Yami glared at Kaiba. "Just like they tried to three years ago. Only then they chose Yugi."

"What??" Kaiba growled, and jumped up. He pulled his cell phone from his purple trench coat, and dialled a number. He said something into his phone, but not loud enough for anyone else to hear. Kaiba picked up his small brother, and carried him away from Yugi and Yami.

Yugi cried into Yami's warm, protective body.

"Shush, it's okay." Yami tried to comfort Yugi, who was trying very hard to forget about everything going on around him. A few minutes later, three men in black suits came out through the bushes, grabbed the three unconscious bodies, and dragged them back into the bushes. Yami managed to get Yugi standing again, led him out of the small forest, and back to the game shop. He let Yugi sit down on the couch, and decided that it was best not to leave him alone. He sat on the couch beside Yugi, comforting him until Yugi fell asleep in his arms, feeling safe and warm again.

But they did not notice a face peering in through the window, staring straight at both of them.

"Don't worry. You won't live long enough to get over it, Yugi boy." The deep, cold voice spoke through their clenched teeth. "I'll make sure of that." The dark figure breathed before disappearing into the shadows.

I'm in a 'Halloween' mood right now. Don't ask. So my theme in windows is all black and orange, and in Microsoft word, the background is black, and the writing is orange, and it's kind of funny while I'm typing the story. Anyway. I'm really tired right now, but I need to stay
