Adel: Thanks yaminakathy for reviewing 10 times and to everyone else I love
you guys! And yes it's very cold here very very very cold! Have you noticed
that this story is set in winter? That's because it's cold in the southern
hemisphere!
Rumple: Okay we get it Adel Its cold!
Adel: Yes sorry for my ranting!
Yami watched Yugi sleep. It distressed him to know that Yugi had been hurt. Yami still wasn't quite sure what had happened but he was sure this was to do with Yugi's father.
Yugi stirred in his sleep. Probably a bad dream Yami thought. The night was dark and cold. The rain patted softly on the roof. Yami didn't dare look at his watch but he presumed it was about midnight.
He hated his night shifts at that petrol station it really got to him.
Yami looked down at Yugi once again. He remembered the bruises and scratches which were still clear as day on Yugi's face. but what was really bizarre was Yugi's lack of clothing. Now why had Yugi only have his boxers on when he saw him?
Yami couldn't understand it. Had Yugi's father taken them off and thrown him outside for punishment?
What could a 7-year-old possibly have done to make his father so angry?
Yami stood up. He needed to talk to Yugi's father right away. He went to the front desk to ask if he had arrived.
"Sorry sir but he has been taken to the police department for questioning."
A big grin came over Yami's face. That will teach him he thought.
Yami went back to the room to check on Yugi. The bed was empty. Yami felt a tingling feeling go down his spine.
"Yugi" Yami spoke with dread in his voice.
Yami held his breath to see if he could hear the boy.
Then Yami remembered what had happened at his house and poked his head under the bed. Sure enough Yami saw a little shaking ball of White cloth and a small weeping sound that escaped it.
"Yugi come on you'll get cold"
Yugi didn't move but stopped whimpering.
"Yugi please it's just me no one else is here."
Yugi slowly slid out from under the bed and Yami helped him back onto it.
"Yami do I have to go and live with my dad again. I don't want to live there any more."
"No Yugi I will make sure that it will never happen."
Yugi smiled but the big scratch on his face burned like someone was trying to light his face on fire.
"Yami?"
"Yea?"
"Why don't you go home?"
"I'm worried about you Yugi. I'm worried that if I go no one will be there to look after you."
"What about Casey?"
"I'm sure Casey can make do for one night."
"Can I go home with you?"
"We'll see but I think now you should get some rest"
Yami pulled the covers up around Yugi's neck reminding Yugi of how his mother would do that. Yugi drifted off to sleep and dreamt of rainbows, flowers and his mother.
Yami sat in his chair and contemplated his night.
"Excuse me but are you Yami?"
"Yes"
"Well you are needed at the police station."
"Can't I talk outside?"
"No I'm afraid not. There's a police car waiting for you outside."
"Could you get someone in here to look after Yugi I don't want him to be alone"
"I will"
"Thanks" Yami walked outside and got in the cab.
The driver seemed to know where he was going so Yami didn't need to speak.
They arrived at the police station and Yami got out not even saying thanks to the driver.
A policeman came out and greeted Yami
"We weren't allowed to be in the hospital at this time of night that's why your here."
"What do you need me for?"
"Well Mr. Motou here declares that you were the one who assaulted Yugi. Until we here Yugi's side I'm afraid you won't be leaving here tonight"
Adel: hehehe! poor Yami!
Rumple: God when will this end?!
Adel: Hahaha! Never!
Rumple: Okay we get it Adel Its cold!
