Jan: Something's wrong with you.
Me: 14 reviews for chappie 2! Oh, and Mi Amore means my love in Spanish.
Warning: This fic. It Contains Yaoi. If you don't like it then don't read it. I don't want any stupid flames from homophobes.
Pairings: Y/YY Y/Nicheto Rei/Kai Jou/Seto
Something Important: In the last chapter I got the heights all wrong. In this first chapter here Yuugi opened his eyes and poked at the person next to him. The person next to him, otherwise known as Nicheto, was quite tall, Yuugi only came up to his shoulder, so that made Nicheto about 5'1. ß Yuugi's supposed to be the one that's 5'1, not Nicheto.
Chapter 3 Easier to Run
Yami paced around the Kame Game Shop. Jou had called the night before telling him that he had found Yuugi in New York. In a month he was coming to Japan to do a tour called "Home Again." His ears perked up a little when he heard the little bell at the door ring and two people step in. Yami looked up and saw Malik and Ryou.
"Hey, Yami. How ya doing?" Malik asked, sitting on the counter and looking at some cards on display. Ryou was leaning against the counter and looking on the walls at the posters.
Yami ran a hand through his hair. "I guess I could say happy."
"You guess?" asked Ryou. He shifted a little and the leather shorts he was wearing made an odd sound.
"Yeah, I guess. You know how Seto and Jou are in New York or what ever?" Ryou and Malik nodded. "Well… they found him."
Malik's brows furrowed for a moment, then his eyes widened in shock. "You're kidding me! They actually found him?!"
Yami nodded.
Ryou smiled. "That's great! Are you going to go to New York?"
"No."
"What?!" Ryou and Malik yelled in unison.
"Yami, are you on something?" Malik questioned, feeling Yami's forehead.
"I'm waiting for him to come to Japan." Yami replied bluntly. "He's doing a tour here with his band."
"He has a band? Since when?" asked Ryou.
"Since… I dunno. But they're doing a tour in Japan. He has a new boyfriend too." Yami sighed.
Ryou mouthed 'Oh'. Yami nodded and Malik whacked him in the back of the head.
"Owe! What the hell was that for?!"
"To knock some sense into you, you're an idiot you know that? Yuugi said he loved you right?" said Malik.
"Yes, so? Just like you said, he loved me, love can die." Yami pointed out.
"But, that love can be sparked up again."
"Hey, is that him?" Ryou asked, pointing to a small T.V on the far side of the counter.
Malik wolf whistled, "He's doing good! Looking good too…"
"Don't get any ideas Malik, your dating someone already." Yami said.
Malik shrugged. "Marik's annoying me, he's a horny bastard so were taking a break."
"You're taking a what?" Ryou asked, but Yami shushed him. "Just listen!" whispered Yami.
"So, here we have Yuugi, Rei, Kai and Nicheto from the hit band I'm no light!" The crowd started cheering. "Tell us something about your new tour Yuugi."
"Well, it's taking place in my home country, Japan. The first concert is in Kyoto. I'm really exited about going back because I haven't been to Japan in three years." replied Yuugi.
The V.J smiled. "How did all of you meet and start this band?"
"Well, I came to the U.S about three years ago with, absolutely no money at all. I met Rei, my best friend, in a park. We lived together with Kai when I met Nicheto. Nicheto actually heard me singing in the shower" There was a series of 'aww's, Yuugi smiled, "heard me singing in the shower and said we should try to start up a band. So… we did. It was a lot of fun, there my best friends."
"There's a question from the audience." The V.J got up and went over to a girl about the age of 15 or 16. "What's your question?"
"I read in a magazine that your gay, and you have a lover in your band, is that true?" The girl asked.
Yuugi raised his eyebrows and laughed lightly. "I admit to being… bisexual, and yes I do have a lover but that's as far as I'm going to go."
"So, we did a vote on what music video to show for today, and they want to see 'It's Easier to Run' what's the background on that song?" The V.J asked, sitting on a chair across from Yuugi.
"Well, it's quite a personnel song that I wrote a wile ago. When I came to the U.S I felt like, all I could do was run away from everything, and it would just go away. The song is a lot about my old life and things I feel guilty about and… just stuff like that. Stuff that I've run away from, people I've run away from." Yuugi smiled.
The V.J smiled back. "Okay! Here's the music video for 'It's Easier to Run!'"
Ryou's eyebrows rose. "Hmm… guilty? What would he feel guilty about?"
"Maybe he thought it was his fault we ignored him?" Malik said.
"Hmm… maybe." Yami said. "Shut up now it's starting."
The video showed Yuugi and Rei standing in a room. The room was painted gray and it had blotches and holes in it. It had a small bed behind them that wasn't made. The camera was suddenly on Yuugi's eyes as the music started, then switched to Rei's.
It showed a mirror, it fell from a wall and shattered, the camera zoomed into one of the larger shards and it showed the room again, with Yuugi sitting on the bed, not wearing a shirt but wearing sweat pants.
"It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Then face all this pain here all alone"
It showed Yuugi lying down on the bed, one hand above his head and the other lying lazily on his stomach.
"Something has been taken
From deep inside of me"
Yuugi's hand went from his stomach to his chest and closed his eyes.
"A secret I've kept locked away
No one can ever see"
Suddenly, there was an eye taking up the whole screen, blinking quickly, there were stitches all around it, like eyeliner. It went back to Yuugi, now sitting up on the bed, looking down at his legs.
"Wounds so deep they never show…"
Yuugi looked up.
"They never go away"
Yuugi bit his lip, then looked to the side and continued singing.
"Like moving pictures in my head
For Years and years they've played."
It showed Yuugi looking at an old film strip, moving it quickly in his hands, and then a picture began to form of Rei in a grave yard. His lips parted and he went into his rap.
"If I could change I would
Take back the pain I would"
Rei started walking backwards to another grave
"Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could
Stand up and take the blame I would"
He stopped and turned to another grave that had moss grown all over it and the words almost faded away. He knelt in front of it and put one hand on the top.
"If I could take all the shame to the grave I would."
It showed them in a train; Kai had his drums set up in the hall, Nicheto playing his guitar just ahead of him. Yuugi and Rei were standing together, Yuugi at the mike and Rei leaning against a door.
"It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Then face all this pain here all alone"
Yuugi was in a place that was all black, so you could only see him. He was running towards something, you could barley see the eye of Horus.
"Sometimes I remember
The darkness of my past"
Yuugi stopped running and fell to his knees, putting his hands on his head.
"Bringing back these memories
I wish I didn't have"
Yuugi looked up, hands falling to his side.
"Sometimes I think of letting go"
It showed a hand letting go of a rope, the person falling.
"And never looking back."
It showed Yuugi almost turning around, but stopping himself. You could see behind a group of people. A guy with blonde hair, a guy with brown hair, a girl with brown hair, to guys with white hair and another two with sandy blonde, and one with hair like Yuugi's used to be.
"And never moving forward."
Yuugi looked ahead of him with longing, but closed his eyes and shook his head.
"There would never be a past."
The image behind Yuugi vanished slowly, like smoke or fog, and went back to Rei. Rei was sitting in a chair in a very nice apartment, probably a condo, his back facing a very large window.
"If I could change I would
Take back the pain I would"
It flashed to when he was walking backwards in the grave yard, then back to the Rei who was sitting in the chair, holding his head now in his hand. He blinked slowly.
"Retrace every wrong move I made I would
If I could
Stand up and take the blame I would
If I could take all the shame… to the grave"
It went to Yuugi who was standing at a beach, late at night and the full moon shining on his face. The waves were crashing against the shore. Yuugi wore a long coat, black pants and a black shirt with no socks or shoes.
"Just washing it aside"
It showed Yuugi splashing into the water, clothes still on, his long coat spreading around him.
"All of the helplessness inside"
Yuugi shot up the top half of his body out of the water and fell back into it, lying on his back in the water.
"Pretending I don't feel misplaced"
It showed someone walking away from Yuugi sitting in that gray room on the bed.
"Is so much simpler then change."
It went back to the Train.
"It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Then face all this pain here all alone
It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Then face all this pain here all alone"
"Well, I like that video, very creative." Said the V.J
Yuugi smiled and pointed to Kai, "Most of the video was his idea."
Yami turned off the T.V and sighed. Ryou looked at him then to Malik, who shrugged. They heard the bell ring again and Bakura walked in.
"Thought I'd find you here." said Bakura. He wrapped his arms around Ryou's waist from behind. Ryou turned around in his arms and kissed him lightly.
"Guess what." Ryou said sweetly.
"What?" Bakura asked.
"We found Yuugi."
Bakura smiled and picked up Ryou. Ryou swung his legs around Bakura's waist and Bakura held him by the ass. He twirled them around once, and then kissed Ryou again. "So, how'd you find the squirt?"
"Actually, Jou did." Yami said.
"No kidding. How'd he manage that?" asked Bakura, dropping Ryou to his feet.
"Eh, he was filming him." Yami said. He picked up a deck of cards and started shuffling them absent mindedly. "He took up the job so he wouldn't be bored wile Seto was working. He was doing a behind the scenes thing for Yuugi, but the idiot didn't know until he got there."
"Well, at least we know where he is now." said Bakura. He looked at Ryou's butt and pinched it. Ryou squeaked and covered his butt with his hands and glared at Bakura, who just smiled. "Hey Malik. Why aren't you talking?"
Malik pointed outside to Marik, who was currently kissing some girl. "I said take a Ra damn break, not sleep around! Oh, I'm going to kill him!"
Ryou looked at Malik then to Marik. He grabbed Malik's hand and dragged him over towards Marik and the blond. Malik glared at Marik, who hadn't noticed them yet, then, slapped his arm.
"Marik! What the hell do you think your doing?" Malik asked sternly.
"Owe! What the fuck." Marik turned around and faced Malik. "Oh… hi Malik."
Malik crossed his arms and glared at him.
Marik thought for a moment. "Umm… why are you so mad?"
Malik gaped at him. "Why am I so mad? Why the hell do you THINK!?! I said a break, Marik, I did not say 'Let's go sleep around'!"
"Shit… umm…"
"Oh, but you knew that. Just thought you'd wait until I was so fucking annoyed with you that I'd tell you I need some breathing space, and you go screw around? You fucking slut!" Malik yelled. "You stupid jerk off!"
"Malik, calm down!" Marik yelled, grabbing Malik's wrists.
"No! Let me go!" Malik tried to twist out of Marik's iron grip.
"Malik, why don't you go home and talk this out?" Ryou suggested, "Instead of yelling and getting nowhere."
"Fine!" Malik huffed. "Let's go." He stomped off, Marik walking behind him.
Ryou sighed and looked at the blond. She looked dirty, like she hadn't showered in three days. She wore a pink mini skirt with a white halter top that said 'cherry'. She had light purple tinted sunglasses on top of her head and pink high heeled shoes. The girl didn't even look at Ryou, but turned on her heal and walked the opposite way of Malik and Marik.
"Wake up mi amore, common, wakie, wakie." Nicheto said, nudging the smaller man. Last night, in Nicheto's thinking, had been amazing. They had ended up having sex in the very large, jocose like bath in the center of their room. Nicheto poked Yuugi again and heard a small grunt. Yuugi tried to swat Nicheto's hand away, and then curled back up. "Common love, you need to get up and get ready."
Yuugi opened his right eye a little bit, and then closed it again. Nicheto sighed and stood up. He walked around to the foot of the bed, gripped the blanket, and pulled. Yuugi squeaked at the sudden coolness. He started rolling around on the bed.
"Nooooo! Nichetooooo! I was having a good dream!" Yuugi whined.
Nicheto laughed, and then flopped beside Yuugi. "You should get up; I want to go shopping today."
"You want to go shopping every day." Yuugi pointed out.
"No I don't, I just… what the hell are you doing?"
Yuugi was currently poking at Nicheto's nose. Nicheto glared at Yuugi's finger, making his eyes cross and Yuugi started to laugh.
"Okay, okay… I'm up." Yuugi brushed a hand through his hair. "I need to get this cut." He muttered as an afterthought. He stood up and stretched. He felt two legs wrap around him, when he looked back around he saw Nicheto, sitting on the edge of the bed with his legs around his waist. Yuugi raised an eyebrow, "Want to have a shower with me?"
"Maybe." replied Nicheto. "I guess it could be better then…doing my hair when it's all greasy."
Yuugi rolled his eyes. "Common, you've still got stuff on you from last night."
Nicheto happily followed.
"Okay, stop it!" Yuugi hissed at Nicheto.
Nicheto rolled his eyes at his lover. "A little bitchy today? What is it that time of the month?"
"Shut up." said Yuugi. He started shuffling though his draws to find something to wear. "I can't find anything to wear! Ugh!" He threw one of his shirts on the ground. He felt like kicking something.
"Honestly! What's wrong?" Nicheto asked, walking towards Yuugi.
Yuugi sighed. "I'm seeing Jou today."
"You mean that blond from yesterday? That one?"
"Yeah, that's him."
"Stop stressing about it love, your not going to see him until later today. Right now just relax and let's go shopping." whispered Nicheto, running his fingers through Yuugi's hair.
Yuugi smiled a little and leaned onto the taller. "Hmm… what would I do without you?"
Me: Still trying to find a way to make a good cliffy…. But not finding it! Oh well, maybe in a few more chapters. Sorry this was a sucky chapter! TT Don't shoot me! I can't wait until I get to the last few chapters of this fic because I already know what's going to happen, and who's going to be with who
