Chapter 12 Left In The Dark

Nobody said a word to Yugi that Kaiba was back or that they knew about his secret. Ofcourse in school Yami and Yugi had no contact with each other and Seto didn't come to school either and Joey was really starting to get worried. Bakura and Marik had went back to normal and started making out again like usual. "Hey Joey hows it going?" Yugi asked at lunch time. Joey wanted nothing more than to ignore him but he couldn't, Yugi would notice something and then Seto would be hurt more. "Um great Yugi! And how are you?" "Im great to! We sure have a lot of homework dont we?" "Oh yeah...a whole shit load if you ask me." "Well I know what I have to do tonight!" Yugi smiled cheerfully. ,Oh yeah instead of making out with Yami?!, Joey wanted to snap. He was so pissed that Yugi was hurting his Seto like that. His Seto? Where the hell did that come from?! "So do I..." Joey sieghed instead.

Mokuba tried for the 1000th time that day to get Seto out of his room. But nothing worked. "Nii sama...arent you hungry?" He got no answer.This wasent like Seto but what was he supposed to do? Seto didn't want to see anyone! "Nii sama..." he begged wishing his brother would just come out hug him, ruffle through his hair and then go off downstairs to type away on his lap top while eating a sandwich.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Since yesterday Seto was like this. He didnt leave his room for anything or say a word. He was shatterd and broken. He was torn and kicked where it hurt the most. He was lost...in the darkness. All alone...

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mokuba ran to Domino Highschool looking for Setos gang. He knew they could help. Maybe Yugi could help!!! He ran around the grounds looking for the tri colored hair boy but instead ran into the blond haired boy. "JOEY!!" "Mokuba what are you doing here?" "Wheres Yugi?" "Why do you want to see Yugi?" "Because Setos not doing to good and Yugi is probably the only one that can help him." "Im not to sure about that one, Mokuba." "How come?" Joey sieghed and pointed towards the street. A crimson colored motorcycle was mounted on the side of the road a tall boy already sitting on it and a smaller one similar to the owner of the bike getting on the back. "YUGI?!" Mokuba said in shock. "Hai...Yugi is having an affair with Yami." "WHAT?!! But that just cant be..." "You saw it with your own eyes..." "But nii sama..." The small boy was in a state of shock. Why would Yugi hurt his brother so much. Yugi was one of his best friends but why was he doing this... "Seto..." "Comeon Mokie ill take ya home."

Arriving at the Kaiba mansion Mokuba had broken out in tears. "Don't cry Mokuba its not your fault..." "But Seto is doing so bad...he really loved Yugi." "Im sure he did but time heals everything." "Its not the same Joey! He'll never be the same again!" "I know kiddo but what am I supposed to do about it? I'd love to help him but I cant..." "Talk to him Joey." Mokuba pleaded the grew eyes boring into Joeys amber ones. How could he refuse those puppy dog eyes? But what was he supposed to do? "What am I supposed to tell him?" "Give him a reason to live for!" Joey looked down at the raven haired boy. What was he supposed to tell Seto? That there was another world out there instead of the love one? That maybe he and Seto could have something? Wait a minute scratch that! Joey you nut cut it out! He slapped himself mentally once more before nodding at Mokuba and going upstairs to try and talk to Kaiba. But what he was going to say he had no clue.

Seto sat alone in his dark room. His head burried deep into his pillow. His eyes swollen and red from all the crying. But he didn't care. He didn't care about anything anymore. The love of his life was ripped and torn away by some...some...some oohhh dammit he didn't know what the hell he should call that bastard Yami. He took his love away. No he stole his love away! Why didn't Yugi tell him? He was just as happy as always. He didn't care. Did he even know that Seto knew about their little secret? Probably not... He was ripped out of his thoughts as he heard a knock on the door. Probably Mokuba again checking up on him. He hated doing this to his little brother but he needed some quiet time. He would have to make it up to him later. But the voice that came from the other side of the door was not his brothers. No it was...the mutts! "Seto...are you in there? Can you hear me?" "Piss of!!" Seto snarled. "I just want to talk to you..." "For what?! So you can tell me how life goes on?!" "Well...it does..." Seto sieghed heavily before collapsing in his pillow again. "Leave me alone you stupid mutt!" "Seto..." Joey got no answer. He sieghed heavily before leaving the door. "Mokuba I don't think I can change Setos condition." "Please Joey! You have to try before he does something stupid!" Joey thought for a moment. "I'll come back tomorrow after school allright?" "Hai...ill be waiting here."

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

As Joey walked home he was deep in thought. Did Yugi even care about Seto anymore? Why doesent he just tell him? He doesent really want to wait a few months until Seto supposably returns. Does he? Joey shook his head obviously angry. Seto was broken. He was hurt and torn. How was Joey going to make him become the old Seto again??

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yami and Yugi were in the park again. Now Yugis favorite spot to spend time with Yami. Yugi was laying on Yamis stomach watching the white puffy clouds above. Yami was playing with a daisy in his hands. "Yugi don't you think that Seto is going to call you today or something?" "Hm...he probably would but...I don't think he'll call this early." "Yeah your right there is a time difference." "Yami?" "Hai love?" "Stop worrying about Seto. I'll tell him soon enough and then we can show our relationship." "Allright." Yami sat up and took Yugi into his arms hugging him close. Yugi giggeld and squeezed the other one closer to him. "Yami...I love you..." He heard the smaller one whisper in between his arms. A slight blush crept up Yamis cheeks before he replied "I love you to."

MC: So sorry that this is once again a short chapter. This was just to explain how Joeys feelings for Seto are beginning to come into the light and how Seto is slowley slipping away into the darkness with a broken heart.

Hope you guys enjoyed it! Thanks for all the reviews!! (Gives out huge fudge brownies with Yu-Gi-Oh characters drawn on them)
