Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Sadly…though it would be awesome cause the Yamis and Hikaris would all be yaoi, of course it wouldn't be appropriate for children anymore…hehe

(Please be nice about my retarded writing, it's my first fan fic I ever thought about being published and well yea so merf…)

Chapter One:

Yugi sat at his desk staring at the clock, while all the other students were excited to be getting out of this 'hell hole' known as school, Yugi was dreading the moment when the final bell would ring.

It had been a while ago that he had started noticing that he was developing feelings for his yami. Of course he kept these feelings locked up deep inside him, deep enough so that Yami couldn't even sense them. 'This is wrong' he would tell himself 'is it wrong to love the other half of your soul? Even if I ever told him he would probably turn me down, and hate me for even thing about him like that.' His face darkened at the thought of Yami hating him, but still he couldn't get ride of the image of Yami smiling down on him, saying those words he long to hear pass off of Yami's lips…

I…love…you

While pondering his thoughts of whether or not Yami 'swung that way' the final bell rang and signaled that the pain and torture had finally subsided, at least until the weekend was over. All of the students, and most of the teachers, ran out of their classrooms in a giant stamped, all except for Yugi that is. He was too busy thinking to even notice that the sound of his freedom had long since past.

After a little while Jou poked his big blonde head through the door to the classroom and asked Yugi if he was planning to stay at school all weekend.

"Don't worry Jou, you go on ahead I have to take care of some things" he forced out a smile as his friend nodded and left the small adolescent alone once again. He finally regained his composer, gather his belongings, and left the empty school.

Yugi walked extra slow coming home that day, he was preoccupied with his thoughts of Yami to walk any faster in fear he would walk into the street. He remembered the first time he started feeling something for the older boy….

Flashback

It was dark and cold out side, Yugi had just returned from school a little later than usual with new bruises, cuts, a black eye, and a few broken ribs. When Yami asked what happened Yugi just said it was nothing to worry about, and made his way toward the stairs to get to his room.

A few hours later Yami came in Yugi's room and sat down on his bed next to Yugi. He put his hand on his hikari's shoulder and turned his light around to face him. Yami was shocked at the sight before him, Yugi's face was red and swollen and his eyes wet with tears.

"Yugi what happened?" Yami asked his voice slightly shocked but softer than before, now he had really began to worry about his young Hikari. One single tear rolled down Yugi's tender cheek, Yami reached over and whipped it away. Yami then wrapped his strong arms around Yugi bringing him close to his chest. He continued to sob as Yami whispered soothing words into his ear.

"It's ok aibou, I'm here for you, and I won't be going anywhere" His voice was calm and sincere, as if he really didn't want to leave Yugi alone to suffer, as if he really…cared. Yugi blushed at the tone of his voice, luckily he had his faced buried in Yami's shirt so it was undetectable.

Yami's words seemed to calm Yugi down a little bit, as his once violent sobs became only slight whimpers. Yami started stroking Yugi's hair still allowing the smaller boy to dampen his shirt. Yugi's blush became three shades darker and for a while he forgot about his pain and started to think about Yami.

Yugi and Yami stayed in their warm embrace for well over an hour before Yami noticed that Yugi had fallen asleep. "This boy can sleep anywhere" Yami sweat dropped.

End Flashback

Yami later found out that Yugi had been having some trouble with three bullies at his school. They had cornered him that day, throwing out insults toward him. He asked them to stop, that's when they got rough. They threw him up against the wall and one of them punched him directly in his left eye, causing him to black out. When he finally came to he was cut up on his arms all the way to his neck, and his chest was throbbing. The punch he had received on his left eye was swollen so much, he couldn't open his eye, his legs were severely bruised and he could barely walk. It was a miracle he made it home with out collapsing

Yugi's legs seemed to have a mind of their own today, before he knew it he was at the game shop that was right below where he, Yami, and his grandfather lived. His grandfather was currently on an archeological dig in Egypt, and wouldn't be back for a month, which made things even worse. He was stuck for a month with Yami alone, what if his feelings for his yami just happened to slip out, his yami would be disgusted with him.

Yugi slowly reached toward the cold silver handle on the door to the game shop. He turned it and hesitantly stepped into the shop, quietly tip-toeing toward the stairs trying not to let Yami know he was home. He had almost made it all the way to the top when a deep voice stopped him.

"Yugi? Are you home?" Damn. It was Yami. Yugi stopped in his tracks and turned around to find Yami standing at the bottom of the stairs staring straight at him with those beautiful blood red eyes, those always drove Yugi insane.

Yugi was on the verge of blushing and screaming out that he loved him right there, but fortunately he had learn self control over the past few months. "Uh…. Hey Yami, yeah I'm back from school now." Yugi replied awkwardly, he noticed that Yami's face seemed to brighten up when Yugi spoke to him. They stood there in a long disturbing silence, Yugi was the first to break it "I have to go..finish my homework, yea that's it!" Yami eyes flashed sadness at this comment and Yugi was confused as to why, but he shrugged it off and went to his room.

(A/N: If you liked it send me a review if you I get at least three I'll post another chapter which I am working on now! And I would like to take this time to say aibou means PARTNER OR OPPOSITE NOT LOVER!)
