A/n: Ok! I am so sorry I haven't updated in a long time! Please don't hurt me! I have been very sick all week! So, I had this great idea while I was glued to my couch with tissues and blah blady blady blah!
Summary:
I thought, Hey! What if Yami couldn't speak! What if a terribly accident occurred and he was the only witness? To deal with the pain, he refuses to talk. Unfortunatly, Yugi is the one in the accident. He'll survive but might not ever be able to walk again…Yami is stunned and full of anguish, but he refuses to kill himself. He also, refuses to talk. This is written in Yami's POV. I hope you like it!
Crash
I didn't see the train coming. All I heard was an ear piercing scream. I whipped around and screamed too.
We were stupid, alright. Grandpa had always been telling us not to play on the railroad tracks, but we never listen…and this just proves it. Yugi had his headphones blaring and I was just walking…in my own world. Some how, neither one of us heard the train. What I did hear will be ringing in my head forever.
" GET OUT OF THE WAY!" I yelled over the train's engine. Yugi's foot was stuck…under the tracks. I jumped and pulled Yugi's thin body, trying to get him unimpeded …no use.
" Yami…HELP!" Yugi cried out over the engines. He flailed his arms trying to get the train driver's attention. Again no use…
" Let me get hit instead!" I tried to jump in front of Yugi …but he pushed me and…
BAM
A blood curdling scream erupted from my light. My poor aibou…I sunk to the ground I screamed with him, both of us waiting and praying the pain would end. We both knew it wouldn't. We were dumb, but we weren't that stupid.
The ambulance and police arrived on the scene too late…Yugi's leg was already detached from his body. I remember turning my head and vomiting onto the blood covered tracks.
Both of us were hauled into an ambulance and I was asked many questions. I didn't answer any of them…I just sat… and cried. Grandpa came and rocked me in his arms. Sure, I was sixteen and acting like a baby. But, I had a reason too. My best friend was probably going to die…because of me… I screamed so loud in the hospital that night that one of the nurses came in and held me…she was crying too. I was not ashamed to cry, not tonight any way. Crying was all I could do. I couldn't talk…no, I refused to talk.
I visited Yugi constantly and I found that he was going to make it. He was strong…unlike me. For days he remained in the hospital. That pure, blank white room that was clean enough to make anyone sick. The hospital scared me…and I scared the people in the hospital.
After two long weeks in the hospital, Yugi was ready to come home.
" Yami, don't blame yourself." Yugi said to me, his beautiful violet eyes staring into mine. " It's my fault…I'm sorry. I could have killed you." I was silent, like I had been since that horrible day. " Yami?" Yugi sat in his new wheel chair giving me a questioning and concerning look. "What's wrong? Yami? Say something!"
I opened my mouth and screamed, then I looked at Yugi.
" you can't talk can you?..."
I nodded and hugged Yugi tight. I wasn't going to let him go, but I knew one day I'd have too…wouldn't I?
" Come on." Grandpa said from the door. " Let's go home."
Again I nodded and Yugi nodded too.
We left the hospital and arrived at the game shop. I sat on the couch with my aibou and we played video games until midnight. Yugi fell asleep against me and I smiled.
"May be one day…I'll talk again. but, right now…I prefer to be seen and not heard."
TO BE CONTINUED….
