7:01am...

Yugi walked out from the kitchen, done cleaning up Bakura's mess from the food he ate this morning. Yes he was disgusted but it was his life now and he couldn't change the fact of that, of the truth.

Yugi walked around the dirty house cleaning everything that Bakura had told him too. He grabbed the vacuum and plugged it into the wall but before he could start it up he wiped away some sweat from his face and relaxed a bit.

So much work... hopefully Bakura will come home late today. I dont want to get a beating like yesterday, Yugi thought sadly as he started up the vacuum only to hear knocking on the window but when he turned around all he could do was gasp and drop the vacuum he was holding up.

Tears rolled down his eyes as he backed away in fear and fright, "Y-Yami...?"

"Yugi? Oh thank God I found you, come here! We have to get out of here before Bakura comes back!" Yami worriedly said as he started to come through the window.

"No, stop! Don't come any closer! You abandoned me Yami, you left me with Bakura. What makes you think that you won't do something like that again?! I'm sorry but I won't come back with you," Yugi said quietly, but that wasn't going to stop Yami.

"Aibou, please I'm sorry but-..."

"No! Just- just go away!" Yugi shouted, holding his hands up to his ears and sat down in a little ball by the corner, "Just leave me alone!"

----------------

Yugi woke up startled, sweat pourring down his face as he clutched the sheets around him tightly, trying not to yell out from fright so that he wouldn't wake up Bakura.

He had been having dreams like that every night ever since that day one month ago when Yami didn't show up to get him. Even though there was a different setting and time etc, Yami would always come and try to get him, but he would refuse to not go with him.

He wiped away some of the sweat from his forehead as he tried to calm his breathing down. He felt his pulse which was starting to slow down, which made him sigh in relief, Might as well get something to drink and wash up.

Yugi looked towards the clock at the blinking red letters saying that it was 5:56am in the morning, knowing that Bakura would wake up here soon enough to go to work. He got up from his small bed and tip toed quietly towards the bathroom and locked the door behind him.

He stared at himself in the mirror as he groaned. He looked awful of course with dark circles under his eyes as usual and a few bruise marks and cuts from when Bakura beat him just for the fun of it.

He didn't get much sleep anymore as Bakura made him work harder and longer till the days end around 1:00am in the morning and he would usually beat him because he was drunk or he just felt like beating on someone, that someone being him just because he mad at somebody else.

He turned on the faucet at low and picked up a hand full of water, splashing at his face, trying to wake up. He did this another few times until he washed his face off with his towel and walked out of the bathroom to see Bakura sitting at the dining table reading this mornings newspaper.

Yugi gulped, getting ready for a new day of cleaning and a new day of getting beaten to death. He walked over towards the kitchen and started to prepare Bakura's favorite meal in the morning, three over meduim eggs, with 4 bacons, 2 peices of toast with cinnamon and butter, and a soda pop. Strange wasn't it? But after that he left a huge mess!

"Hurry up you little runt or I'm going to be late," Yugi heard Bakura growl as he turned to another page in the newspaper.

Yugi started cooking as he dazed over thinking about his dream. Why is it that he always told Yami to go away and not come near him? Wouldn't he be glad that Yami was there to save him? Maybe it's because he didn't trust him anymore in helping him and saving him.

It just doesn't make sense... well who cares, I mean it's not like he'll ever come for me. He didn't come for me a month ago, what makes me think he'll come today or ever? It just doesn't work...

Suddenly heard a crackle and saw one of the bacons burning as he flipped out and turned it over, only making a huge sigh of relief. It wasn't burnt but if he didn't get to it on time, Bakura would killed him for sure! He never liked his meal burnt or anything wrong with it. If he had screwed up, he would have been beaten.

Yugi brought over Bakura's breakfast and set it down in front of him along with a cold Dr. Pepper. Just as Yugi was about to walk away Bakura had grabbed his wrist and pulled him towards him.

Yugi struggles a bit, but didn't do much for he knew if he gave Bakura a problem what ever he was going to do might get worse.

Bakura looked at him as he grabbed his kinfe while Yugi just sat there gasping a little, breathing pretty hard. He slammed his arm down on the table as he started to make a trail of blood going from his wrist, up towards his shoulder. Yugi seethed in pain, but didn't dare cry out as the cut got deeper and deeper when it got closer towards his shoulder bone.

It suddenly stopped as Bakura let go of Yugi's arm, while Yugi held his arm closer to him looking at Bakura awaiting for what else he had to do, "Get to work on my bedroom!"

Before he knew it, Yugi was on the ground. He felt his cheek warm up with pain and knew he was going to get a huge bruise, but he got up anyway and nodded his head bowing down before Bakura, "Yes master."

Yugi walked down the hallway all the way to the end as he shut the door behind him and held his arm close to him, the pain burning as he closed his eyes refusing the tears to fall down his face. He had to stay strong and not make Bakura mad.

He wiped up some of the blood with his shirt as he looked painfully around the room. Once again the room was a huge pig stye just for little Yugi here to clean up. He started picking up Bakura's dirty clothes as he closed his eyes, letting the first tear fall down his face in a month.

I really wish you were here Yami... Why didn't you come that night for me? Do you even care about me? Will I even ever see you again...?

Preview Of The Next Chap...

Yugi hung up on the phone call Bakura had just given him as he laid back and made a sigh of relief and happiness. Bakura was going to be staying at one of his friends houses for the night, as he smiled. Could you blame him for being happy?

He suddenly walked into his room and danced a bit. Yeah, he had to do more work, but he didn't have to see or get beaten by Bakura until tomorrow night! It was like a miracle had just happened!!

Yugi then stopped when he heard a noise come from his window as he looked around and then fell to the floor, eyes wide with shock and fear both. He couldn't believe what he was seeing it was just like a dream, but the only problem was...

It wasn't a dream this time...
