Disclaimer:
I do not own any characters, but I do own the story, and the
plot.
My Smile…
My
smile is all it takes to make their worries go away.
Their smiles
are what it takes to keep me going every day.
Hanging out and
laughing with the gang...that's the story of my life.
So why is
it that I'm sitting here alone, with an open pocket knife?
They
say a pictures worth a thousand words,
If you took a picture of a
corpse, you'd have the sound of a flapping wingless bird.
My
friends...its not that they don't see the real me,
If they did,
none of them could be more happy.
Joey has his sister to worry
about...not to mention Mai as well.
Duke...he's in heaven around
Serenity. Since Duke has stayed, Tristan has been...in
hell.
Téa...what can I say?
She's happy around
everyone. Every...single...day.
I
smile at all of them, even though I am in pain.
Maybe if I go
away, it would be to everyone's gain.
Its not as though they'd
miss me, they wouldn't even realise,
If I did leave, maybe we
could all forget...the horrible world of lies.
Joey walked up to
me earlier today. I put my smile on, and he smiled back.
Then
Kaiba came to insult Joey, I tried to block his verbal attack.
Kaiba
left and Joey clamed down. He asked why I bother.
He said I
shouldn't worry, even when he's treading in deep water.
I
sighed a toll him its because he's my friend and because I
worry.
He asked me to explain, and he said he wasn't going
anywhere in a hurry.
We started walking towards a park, and all my
fears started pouring out.
He put his hand on my shoulder, then he
started to walk about.
"I'll
always be here for you, no matter what.
I sighed. "Joey, I
really want to believe you, but...
"No "buts" Yug, you're
like my brother, I'll always be here for you.
"You gotta cheer
up, and stop being so blue."
After that he walked away...
Now
that I think about it, I should have asked him to stay.
I'm
smiling now, and for once it's not fake.
I'm sitting here with
this knife, and I've got a choice to make.
I could end my life
right now, overcome my greatest fear.
I'll just stab me with
this knife, and end the pain right here.
Joey's face keeps
appearing in my mind, his voice is in my brain.
If I don't make
a choice right now, I'm going to go insane!
"Yugi!"
I hear Joey yelling my name. Oh Joey, not now...
Wait! I didn't
tell anyone I'd be down here. Then how...
Never mind, it doesn't
matter. "Joey, I have to go...
He runs down the stairs full
speed, then towards me. "Yugi, no!"
He stops. I can tell he's
seen the knife. A horror stricken look is on his face.
He's
going to leave, or lecture me. No...neither...he's pulling me into
an embrace.
"Yugi...please
don't feel like you're alone. I'll always be your
friend.
"We'll always be standing together, after every bitter
end."
He pulls away from me, a tear slipping from his eye.
We're
both trying so hard, not to make each other cry.
I'm finding his
words very comforting. "Thanks for always being here."
We both
get up. "Lets get out of this basement." I turn to him, "Wanna
grab a beer?"
We've
been better friends then ever. And my smile is always real.
Because
now I know: Joey will always be around to help me
deal.
Well, that was it, that was my Yugi
fic. I am currently in the beginning
stages of anther Yugioh fic,
but I'm not giving anything away. .
Review if you like, hope you enjoyed it.
