Innocence Broken

Chapter VII: A Memory Within a Dream

+++

Yu-Gi-Oh! is not mine and never will be. Got it? Oh, and sorry for not updating in SO long, Diablo II is so addicting. :p

Yami: Yeah, forget about us.

Yugi: She's going on to bigger and better things… *the lights turn off and Yugi grabs a flashlight and puts it to his face, turning the switch on* God have mercy on her soul…

SHINY!

Yugi: -_-

"I…" Yugi couldn't speak. To much had happened in only two days. Actually, it might have been three, he didn't know how many had passed. It went by so slow and fast at the same time.

Yami had stopped crying a while ago, but then again, Yugi didn't know. It was like a dream, everything was blurry and distant, nothing seemed real. But it was, he knew it.

"…want to go… home."

Home. It sounded so distant, too.

"Okay." Yami didn't say much, he might have been shaken up, by the kiss or the rape attempt, Yugi had no idea.

The kiss! He had been so wrapped up in crying for Yami that he had forgotten all about it. I hope Yami did too…

But a part of him was lying.

Yami opened the door as Yugi walked in, saying a quite 'thank you'. What now? Just turn around and face the music? Yugi didn't know, so he just chose to walk up the stairs slowly. Yami followed.

Yugi could feel his dark's gaze on him, and he wished he could avoid it somehow. Running up to his room and slamming the door, anything. It's just his eyes made the teenager feel edgy.


At the top of the stairs.

Yugi inched to his room, step by step, slowly, quietly. Yami tailed him.

The light wanted to turn around and yell at Yami, 'Why can't you leave me alone?!' be the thing was, he wanted to be with someone. No, he NEEDED to be with someone. But he didn't know…

Didn't know about anything right now. But he knew one thing…

He was in love, and embarrassed.

When he approached his room, Yami's hands cornered Yugi around the door and he yelped, turning to his yami. But instead of having an angry look, or a disgusted look, it was one with love.

Love. Yami loved Yugi.

Yami inched closer to Yugi, his eyes closed, but Yugi's were wide open. Open with shock, and excitement.

Rinnnnnnnnnnnnnnng.

Yugi ducked under Yami's arm and ran down the stairs. It must be Grandpa! Yami sighed and walked down after him, taking his precious little time.

He heard the phone clash to the ground and then a thump after that. The pharaoh ran into the kitchen, and saw Yugi. On the floor, clutching the phone for his life. Tears were streaming down his face faster then light itself, and as his light looked up, Yami almost wanted to die.

"Grandpa… isn't coming back."

And he felt like he did.

So it's ALMOST done, okay? Review so I can start on the next chapter, which will be up sooner then this one was! XD :p
