A/N: Freak09- Elloa!!! That is how I say hello!!! I am from the U.S. though…so don't know how that happened?! Anywho…I am here to bring you another of my wonderful fics!!! This is a SetoxSerenity fic!!! This will not focus only on them though!!! I may come out with a different fic soon that will be called a name close to this, but don't get confused because that one will be a SetoxJoey fic!!! Don't get confused!!! Every chapter will focus on either on one person or couple, or a few couples; this one only surrounds Ryou and Yugi (NOT COUPLE, I hate fics where 2 girly guys are together)!!! Each story moves into the next!!! I will tell you who is mainly in the chapter in the beginning!!! So finally here is Songs of Life!!!
Chapter 1: Hold On
"I don't know what to do Yugi. I don't want to go through this any more." Ryou said while they sat in the game shop's living room.
"If you're not happy, then leave." Yugi replied truly worried about his friend's current situation. Ryou was being beaten by his Yami. Sure, Bakura would never get close to killing his white haired hikari, but he left scars; both mental and physical.
"I . . ."
"What Ryou," Yugi egged him on. He knew Ryou had a secret. He also knew what the secret was, because Yugi had kept the same secret till just a few days before.
"Nothing," Ryou replied weeping in his heart for what he could never have. "You know I have thought about suicide before."
"What, why would you think of that?!" Yugi half yelled surprised. Ryou always seemed so happy all the time. It must have been an act, or had no one ever looked closely enough at how he was?
"I don't know . . ." Ryou replied looking at his wrists that were scarred.
"You did that to yourself?" Yugi whispered as if suddenly they were in a library.
"Yeah," Ryou said feeling the scars that he had made. Music filled the room as Yugi got up to sing.
"This world,
This world is cold,
But you don't,
You don't have to go,
You're feeling sad,
You're feeling lonely,
And no one seems to care,
Your Mother's gone,
And your Yami hits you,
This pain you cannot bear,
But we all breathe the same way that you do,
And we all have the same things to go through,
Hold on,
If you feel like letting go,
Hold on,
It gets better than you know,
Your tears,
They stay there way too long,
And your nights,
You can't sleep alone,
Hold on,
You're not sure what you're waiting for,
But you don't want to move on,
You're not sure you're looking for,
But you don't want to go on,
But we all breathe the same way that you do,
And we all have the same things to go through,
Hold on,
If you feel like letting go,
Hold on,
It gets better than you know,
Don't stop looking,
You're one step closer,
Don't stop searching,
It's not over,
Hoooollllllllllld oooooooooonnnn,
Yugi was doing amazingly well. Ryou was feeling more inspired to live every verse. Then there is an awesome little musical solo.
"Hold on,
If you feel like letting go,
Hold on,
It gets better than you know,
Don't stop looking,
You're one step closer,
Don't stop searching,
It's not over,
Hold on,
If you feel like letting go,
Hold on,
It gets better than you know,
Hoooolllllllddd oooonnnnn."
"Wow Yugi that was amazing!" Ryou said in awe.
"I just think you should hold on." Yugi replied.
"Bloody hell, I've got to go! Bakura is going to kill me." Ryou said as he looked at his watch. Bakura had him on a curfew for after school, and if he wasn't home . . . he got beat.
"Bye!" Yugi shouted as Ryou started running down the street.
What do you think? Personally I like the chapters that are coming up better!!! Review please!!!
