Chapter 14
"Hey Yugi, where you're going out so late at night??" As Yugi fixed up his outfit- an ensemble of black leather and belts with fake gold bands that clanged against his wrists-Sugoroku, as worried and curious as any other grandparent, peered at the teen.

"Well Grandpa, I'm going out on a date with Anzu. By any chance, do I look good?" Pulling at the creases of his sleeveless leather shirt that appeared constantly on all parts of it, oblivious to the bug-eyed stares that his grandfather was giving him, Yugi tapped into his mind connection with Yami, wanting to know the Pharaoh's opinion on all that was happening.

'So Yami, what do you think?'

Through the mind link, Yami gaped at his aibou, never realizing how his younger could be extremely.......not so innocent. (by the way, there will be some hints of YY/Y, well, most mostly hints of yami yugi liking yugi, but not definite stuff. if you're disgusted, just skim through the next parts) Though it was the exact same outfit that he had worn for the meeting with Anzu, except with minor changes such as less gold bands and smaller ones, it shocked Yami to no end.

'You look........nice.'

'You sure, Yami?' Looking down at his pants, Yugi was now suddenly apprehensive. Will Anzu think he was so cheap for wearing the same outfit as last time?

'Yes, Yugi. Don't be so nervous, everything's going to be fine.'

Something ached in his heart, as the Pharaoh let out words of comfort to Yugi- what if Yugi did indeed succeed with his date? What will become of his relationship with the boy? A weak smile filled his lips as another ploy to reassure Yugi, as he curled his fingers into his palm, forming a tight fist to hold in the overwhelming grief that washed over him.

'Thanks for your support, Yami. If it weren't for you and Jounouchi, I wouldn't have had the confidence to ask my childhood crush on a date.'

Stunned by Yugi's appreciation, it wasn't until later on that he realized Yugi had already left the Mutou household for the restaurant that his date was being held. And that drops of blood now lined Yami's fingertips.

Back to Seto's Mansion......(there's a LOT of angst here)
'Why do I have this feeling that I have to go out??.......What could I possibly do at 8:00 at night? Fling myself over the Domino City bridge? Search for Anzu, so I can apologize to her? Why do I bother living in this world? I know, for Mokuba's sake, but why did I in the first place? So that I can suffer in the hands of Gozaburo, and parents dying all through my childhood?'

Slumped over a seat on his living room couch, his eyes facing the ceiling in utter boredom, Seto put a hand over his cheek, feeling the rough dimensions of his face, the testimony of the many beatings of Gozaburo. Though they had cleared up, the rough cracks on his skin still remained, always haunting him throughout his teenage years. Mokuba wasn't anywhere; he was at a friend's house for a week, as their own celebration that summer vacation had came.

'What a stupid fool I was not to fight back against Gozaburo!! Instead, I made myself become his lap dog and did all his work. Mokuba was lucky enough that Gozaburo didn't lunge at him-at least he's still naïve and innocent. My childhood was basically taken out from under me when he adopted us both. And Anzu......though her parents are always out on business trips, and she never gets to see them, she has them at least.......Why can't I have her life or even her......but I never will or be able to, with what I did to her......I have to go and apologize to her!'

Leaping up from his seat, Seto took a glimpse on his Rolex watch, and reading 8:12 on it, he stormed out of the mansion, with only one goal in mind: to get to Anzu.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
At Tokyo Delights......(restaurant name I made up)
'Anzu was supposed to be here 5 minutes ago! I hope she gets here soon......' Looking up at the restaurant's clock with a faltering face, Yugi sat at an outside table; perfect for a somewhat moonlit, fluorescent- lighted dinner with Anzu, who was always partial to romanticism and wouldn't indeed mind the artificial light if there were the moon right next to it.

'Maybe we should go home, Yugi. Maybe she decided to not go at the last minute.'

'No Yami, Anzu is my friend!! She'll never do something like this to me, or to Jounouchi and Honda!!' Standing up for Anzu's defense against Yami, the Pharaoh simply sighed in frustration.

'I said, MAYBE, Yugi.' But deep inside, he wished Anzu wouldn't come at all, as deeply as he felt towards her as a friend, so he would be spared the heartbreak of watching Yugi flirty and in love with another but him.

"Hey Yugi!!"

Their mind link broke apart at the voice, for what Yami knew must be Anzu, as he knew full well that Yugi would never snapped off their connection in such an abrupt way, unless it was an emergency or.......Anzu Mazaki.

"Hey Anzu, I was starting to get worried about you! Where were you??" Worry and concern filled Yugi's violet-black eyes, but at the same time shyness, upon looking at Anzu's outfit: dressy light blue shorts with a bright goldenrod belt wrapped neatly around her waist, a red and white striped tank top along with a dangling silver necklace personalized in her name and Yami's sapphire necklace.

"Sorry.......gasp.....I was following your directions to the restaurant......gasp.......and then I kind of got lost along the way......gasp......so I asked somebody for directions.......gasp......and I ran the rest of the way here.......gasp......can you order water for me, Yugi, while I go catch my breath?........."

And as Anzu swallowed down air to her tired lungs in huge gulps, Yugi called for the waitress, a grin playing on his lips.

Somewhere Outside Domino City......
Though others loved the heat, Seto scorned it. It made him soaked damp all over with perspiration, and the fact that he didn't enjoy wearing short- sleeve clothing, made it all the more unbearable. But he couldn't just simply drive his limousine over to Anzu's house- it'll give him that pompous look that she claimed that he had and Seto wasn't the kind to give satisfaction to other people on his mistakes, though the limousine had air conditioning in it.

So as he walked along the streets of Domino City, his shoes creating tap- like sounds on the concrete ground, Seto looked about him, eyes travelling to where a group of junior high students were mulling around an outside food stand, each trying to hurry one another into ordering fishball sticks quicker.

'Fools.' As his steps quickened to get away from the embarrassing sight, his apathetic sapphire eyes searched around for more surrounding amusement and entertainment. Scanning through running grown men after women (*_*), parents and their kids sitting on benches, rolling food booths, the sights didn't held his interest for more than a few seconds, but as Seto rounded a corner, something did.

Anzu with Yugi.
A/N: ooh, I wonder what's gonna happen to yugi and anzu now!!! nicely written cliffie, ain't it? (gets rotten tomatoes thrown at her) ok, maybe not, but still it makes you want to read chappie 15 doesn't it? (gets nods) al right, so would any of you readers please spare my fic a few more minutes after you finished reading it, by writing a review for me? It'll get me more motivated and get my chappie 15 posted more faster. Wouldn't you want that? Anyway, NO FLAMES, and to all a good day!!!!! ^-^
