Secret's Out
A/N: So...Sorry for the wait. I was weight down with school work, the end of the year is only in 8 more weeks. So..Gotta keep my ass moving. This one is a bit short, I apologize for that too. I'll try to make the next one longer.
Maroon eyes widen as far as they could without popping out from the skull as the tan Egyptian walks towards the wounded slightly scared boy. "Yugi...Why?" It was the typical nervous question when one was faced with such a thing. Yugi raises a perfectly shaped eyebrow curiously. "Why not? No one cares, not since Grandpa died of that heart attack." Yugi couldn't keep the ice from his voice as Yami gently takes the abused arm.
Kneeling slightly on the blood spotted bed, Yami slowly and gently began to wipe the blood away with his tight black tanktop. "Just because I haven't been playing the best attention to you doesn't mean you can do this!" Yami was applied at Yugi's sudden turn of behavior.
Why would Yugi do such a thing? He could have always come to me if he had a problem!The second sentence repeated like a mantra in his head as he headed to the bathroom to retrieve a first-aid kit. "Selfish aren't you?" Venom dripped from the once so innocent teen's voice.
Yami stopped dead in his tracks, spinning around surprised by Yugi's tone and words. "I do not do it because of you. Though, you are a large reason on why I started up again after so long." Yugi's tone softened a little making the venom less apparent. Yami was by Yugi's side in an instant holding his blood stained hand close to his chest. "Why? Why not just come to me?" Yugi snatched his hand back like he was burnt.
"Come to you? Please!" Yugi chuckles emotionlessly. "Why? Why! Because I am constantly being beaten up, I have no friends and my own yami doesn't even want me! The better question is why not!" The venom was back full force the tone once again taking Yami by surprise. "What makes you think that I do not want you?" Sighing Yugi rolls his eyes at the other's question. "Well, for two days now you haven't said a word to me, besides now. You also walked right by me when I was getting beat up by Jou. Then, here's the fun part, you asked me to join you and your friends for a day at the mall, but left me behind and you didn't even notice when I got fed up and walked away." Yami looks taken back as the memories from said events slap him in the face. "I..." He never got to finish his sentence as Yugi placed a bloody finger on his lips.
"Sh, Please just leave me alone for tonight. We both have been through a lot." Yugi says calmly the release of emotions from the cuts already washed over him leaving him with a pleasant feeling of numbness that hugged his body.
The Egyptian nodded crossly and stood. "Okay. Goodnight Yugi, my Hikari." He pulls the shorter teen into a tight embrace before leaving the room. Yugi looks down at his out stretched arms, that were just begging for Yami to come back and hold him to his warm chest once more. The pallid teen smiles a little dropping his arms, he blows out the dancing flames of the candles. The burnt out incense smoke hung heavily in the air. Yugi laid down, still blood soaked, and feel asleep.
The night past quickly outside the house containing the two sleeping boys.
