chapter 2: if only...
................................
The nurse stared at the floor while she did her story. "We were able to save Joey's life but there seems to be one problem." Kaiba jumped up and stared down at the nurse who couldn't look in his eyes. "What's wrong? Tell me woman!" yelled Kaiba. The nurse stayed calm and finally looked up at kaiba. "You're friend's legs are paralyzed. There's only a slim chance that he'll ever walk again."
Everyone in the room gasped. They never thought it would be that bad. Tristan nodded at the nurse, making her go away and stared angrily at Kaiba. "This is all your fault!" he yelled in his face. Yami quikly stood up and stood in front of Tristan. "Calm down Tristan, it's not." He said calmly. Tristan glared at Kaiba and pushed Yami out of the way. "Yes it is, he shouldn't have been so arrogant, so stubborn, so..."
Tristan couldn't find anymore words and he gave up, looking at Yami who he had pushed on the floor. Tears were starting to sparkle in his eyes and he sank in a chair. "I'm sorry Yami, I didn't mean it like that." He said with a trembling voice. Yami pushed himself from the ground and just nodded. "It's okay, Tristan, i understand". He looked at Kaiba who clearly did belief this was all his fault and tried to convince him that it was not.
"Come on kaiba" he said in his deep voice. "It's not your fault, Tristan didn't mean it, really." He tried but Tristan came in the conversation again. "Yes I do mean it" he growled. "I'll never forgive you for this kaiba." Kaiba sadly opened his mouth to answer something but the nurse came in and smiled a little. "You can go see him now if you like. He's strong enough to handle it"
Everyone hurried to Joey's room with the nurse, not knowing what they would find. As soona s they opened the door, Tristan ran over to Joey and gave him a big smirk. "Hey buddy" he said. He jumped away when he saw the look in Joey's eyes. He was very tired and his eyes said that he was in pain. But even though, he could still smile when he saw his best friend jump away like that. "What's wrong...Tris" he asked while he coughed a little. "Aren't you happy to see me?"
Tristan smiled a bit uncomfortable and kneeled next to Joey's bed. "Tris" Joey tried but he began to cough again. "listen...it was my own fault. Not Kaiba's". Tristan became pale. "I heard you yell at him" said Joey with a smile. "Don't judge him for something that's not even his fault" he coughed up. Yami stepped forward and layed a finger on Joey's mouth. "Don't talk my friend" he said in his typical adult-style. "Spare your strength."
Joey nodded and looked at kaiba who clearly couldn't find his words. He tried to fixate on something but clearly couldn't find something. Joey began to laugh over this. He couldn't imagine a restless kaiba so this was an unusual sight. Everyone just looked at him as if he was psycho. "Joey" began Tea. "Do you know what's wrong with you?" Joey stared at Tea with big eyes. "Off cours I know" he said with a little smile. "I miss a few screws." He smiled brightly when he saw that he managed to crack up Tristan.
"Joey!" said Yugi in a harsh tone. "This is serious". Yami looked at his light, surprised that he accepted this so fast. Joey smiled at him a little bit. "I know yuug" he said. "But look at it from the bright side, it has some advantages and besides, maybe I will walk again, it's not for sure yet." Joey closed his eyes and mumbled something. "Now I'm a little tired." He yawned and immediatly fell asleep.
Tristan's eyes became sad again and he sat himself on a chair next to Joey's bed. "Allways being brave..." he mumbled. "poor guy" Yami comforted his light who looked as if he could start to cry any moment now and Kaiba just stared at Joey who was snoring peacefully as if nothing was going on at all. He thought about Tristan's words and stared at the boy who looked at his best friend without even blinking. "Kaiba, this is all your fault." It echoed in kaiba's mind. Maybe it was really his fault. Eventually, if Joey had left him alone, then it would've been him who was run over by that car.
Kaiba grabbed a chair as well and put it against the wall. He decided that the least he could do was stay here with Joey until he could go home. Everyone was surprised about this but they all understood even though Tristan was a little grumpy about it at first.
Weeks went by like this. Tristan and Kaiba helped Joey wherever they could, they would do anything for him, but they couldn't become friends. Kaiba gave him fresh fruit every day and there couldn't pass a day by without Tristan duelling with his best buddy and eventually, their hard work payed off, Joey was allowed to go back home...
this is chapter 2, I hope ya'all liked it.
