Yugi rushed out of the apartment building he shared with Yami. He quickly ran across the street trying to get as far as he possibly can from the apartment building. He did not want to stop. He didn't want to see Yami again. He felt he humiliated himself in front of him. Yugi always looked up to Yami and always idolized him since the time Yugi could remember. Yami was always the something that Yugi wanted to become. He had been so cruel to someone who for so long has taken care of him and has loved him for so long. Yugi felt happiness. Yami cared for him and loved him so. Yugi felt his chest tighten. He lay up against a tree panting.

"Why….?"

"Why does he decide he should love me now….?"

"Yami….."

Yugi eased himself onto the cold ground. Every breath he took in was painful and icy because of the cold December air. He sighed heavily and watched his breath slowly disintegrate into the air.

"Why did it take him so long to tell me he loves me? When Anzu and I started seeing each other he did seem some what uneasy. But I thought that was because he might of liked her. The one he really liked was me. All this time….he's kept his feelings to himself…I thought we were friends you bastard!" Yugi slammed his fists against the ground. Tears fell from his eyes and melted on the cold ground.

"Friends don't keep things like this hidden from one another! You could've just of told me! I would have been happy!" Yugi tried to calm down as he rested his head against the tree. "This tree….this tree reminds me of him." Always there to help and to support. Infinite.

"Yami……..If you really care for me as much as you say you do then how come you aren't here beside me?" The sound of leaves brushed the ground. Soon he was standing right beside him. Always there beside me…the tree. He had come for him. He must really have cared.

"Yugi?"

Yugi looked up to gaze into those deep red crimson eyes. Enchanted to see his own reflection in the them. It's like Yugi was looking into his heart. Yami bent over to sit next to Yugi.

"Yugi, I want to apologize."

Yugi responded with silence.

"I forced myself onto you against you will. I put our relationship in jeopardy.

I felt like I went into the trust you and I share. It's like I broke that trust when you deliberately ran off like that. The truth is I feel terrible about it. Even if you don't feel the same way about me I still want to be close to you I still don't want anything to change between us. If you hate me for being selfish I can understand. Your right I wasn't thinking about anyone but me. Just please…say something to me….say anything you want….but what hurts me the most is the fact that I hurt you. I don't think I can ever forgive myself for something like that."

"Yami…I…..I can't help but feel that….everything I've worked for…you have taken from me. I can never forgive you for that! But at the same time I…I want to be closer to you. You're everything I want to be. And if I can't have any of that then the next best thing is being close to you."

"So what does this mean?"

"It means I can never become you no matter how much I try."

"But you are Yugi. No one can ever be you. There isn't a person who could ever replace you. The reason you can't be me is because I am me. You are Yugi Muoto. That's why I fell in love with you. Because you are you, Yugi."

"Yami…you…."

"Yes?"

"You idiot…." Yugi nestled his head on Yami's shoulder. Yami reluctantly put his arm around Yugi pulling him closer. Yugi blushed.

"I don't think I could ever hate you Yami."

"Yugi….?"

"Never mind I'll tell you some other time."

"Alright. I can wait. Even if I have to wait forever for your answer." And with that Yugi fell asleep and snow fell.

Yugi woke up and found himself sleeping on top of his bed with the same clothes on as he was wearing last night. Yugi was startled. Last night seemed like it was such a blur.

Yami……….

Yugi felt his body heat up and the sound of his companion's name. When Yugi saw Yami that morning he felt his heart leap. Well, he thought, this is going to be a very interesting day.
