THANKS FOR ALL OF THE WONDERFUL REVIEWS!
FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT GUESSED STOMACH FLU, YOU ARE VERY WRONG! No offense. Good guess, but not what's wrong with Atemu. Rectal pain is very serious (most of the time) and usually is not associated with the flu of any sort. There will be other symptoms. And if you've noticed, migraines and dizzy feelings are also involved in the disease. Diarrhea is the biggest symptom. Second biggest are abdominal pain and gas (hint hint!). So much pain and suffering for our poor little pharaoh. Is it too much for him to bear? (I wish!) lol.
THANKS FOR THE GUESSES AND PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING!
THE CHARACTERS:
Elena: A mean and nasty sixteen year old girl who seems to think that she had a relationship with the pharaoh before Lieren came along. She HATES Lieren and now that Atem hates her, she'll do anything to sabotage Lieren and Atem's dream of being happy together. She seems very familiar to Atem. As he slips in and out of the dreams he feels that she is a past life version of Akira!
Tatiana: Close friends with Elena, but not as mean. She doesn't necessarily HATE Lieren, but she definitely doesn't like her. Her personality has changed over the last couple of chapters. Sorry that she turned out to be nice! She is twelve and the youngest of the girls. Even though she is hurtful to Lieren, part of her pity's and feels bad for the blonde because un-denounced to everyone else, Tatiana has some secrets of her known and not only that, but she knows a lot of Lieren's secrets.
Lieren: The beautiful and not-so-innocent-as-everyone-thinks-girl. She has a depressing and heart wrenching past that even Atem knows little about. She'll tell him everything when the time comes, but for now she wants him to love her like no one else ever did…
Atem: The poor hero of the story. All the girls want him, yet he only loves Lieren. They have been best friends since they were very young and still Atem doesn't know why Lieren cuts her wrists. Lieren might have a lot of secrets but Atem isn't an open book either…
Catch Me If I'm Falling…
"Yami, we are not going to the mall today."
"Why?"
Lieren grit her teeth and tried not to scream at him or smash his head in. "You are sick, Atem. "
"So I have diarrhea…What's the big deal?"
"Do I have to mention that you were crying in there? Or that you were in so much pain that you couldn't move!" Lieren sighed and smiled softly. "Let's get you to bed. Ok?"
Atem rolled his eyes. "Not really…"
"Does your stomach still hurt?"
"It's a little better. Not much." Atem yawned.
"See. You're tired. Why are you so stubborn Atem?"
"I am not tired." he argued. He tried to conceal another yawn and failed miserably. Lieren grinned.
"And what was that?"
"A cough?" Atem smiled. He didn't quit easily.
"Show me a person that coughs like that!" Lieren said with a laugh. "Give it up Atem! You're tired. There's no shame in it either."
Atem shrugged and turned his head away. "I am not tired."
Lieren just laughed and started tickling him. Atem was laughing too. "Stop! Lieren Knock it off!" She didn't though. She kept going until tears were in Atem's eyes and he threatened that he'd shit on her if she kept it up. Of course, she stopped immediately. Atem panted and breathed heavily. "You win. You win. I'm tired. And now, "He smiled. "I'm exhausted."
"Good."
"It's only 2:30 though. " He yawned again. "I feel like I've been up for hours and hours…"
Lieren cocked her head. "Does it hurt anywhere else?"
Atem shook his head. "Only my stomach."
Lieren nodded. "You want to take something for it?"
"I don't like medication."
"Sometimes you are like a little kid Atem. I swear…"
"I guess I'll take a TUM." Atem closed his eyes sleepily.
"Alright. I'll go get you one. Are they in the bathroom cabinet?"
Atem gave her a slight nod.
"Which bathroom?"
Atem didn't answer. He was asleep. Lieren walked back over to the couch and smiled. Her smile faded into a cute little frown though. Why was Atem trying to deny how serious this was? What else was he feeling? What didn't he want her to know? Was he embarrassed about it? Knowing the Pharaoh, the answer was probably yes. But, why would he be embarrassed to tell Lieren? After all, they had been through everything together. He had to be hiding some pain. Lieren only wished that she knew why. But was she too blame too? She kept her share of secrets. But they weren't that bad were they? Now Lieren felt sick. All the things she never told anyone. Maybe she should let them out…or maybe not. Her secrets were dirtier and darker then Atem's. Weren't they? Plus Atem knew about the dangerous ones, right? He couldn't be that naïve, could he? No. Atem was shy and a little timid, but stupid was not one of his many traits. "I'll tell you one day Atem…" Lieren whispered to no one in particular. "When you open up and tell me what you're really feeling…then so will I."
"I've got you Atem." The blonde held the unconscious boy in her arms as best as she could. "I'll never let go…I'd die if you did…."
TO BE CONTINUED….
A/n: Sorry for it being short! Hell, all of my chapters are short now. Oh well, I do update pretty quick now. I'll try to keep it up!
KEEP GUESSING!
Also, Lieren cuts her wrists and has lost something she will never gain again. (dirty little secrets part I)( hint hint!) And Atem is in a lot of pain. It's up to you guys at how much grossness you can all tolerate. I can tolerate it very well. Gross things happen(trust me on this one…) and they happen to basically everyone. Gas…is gross, but happens (except to me because I rarely ever burp…unlike my boy friend…lol). Guys do gross things. Atem is a guy. What do you think? How much grossness can you handle!
PLEASE RESPOND AND REVIEW!
P.S. I won't make him that gross. Yami could never be gross! He's too sexy and polite to be! It's something about his demeanor. Also, he just never does anything gross on Kids WB. Am I right? I mean Joey burped before so did Tristan and Yugi has said things that make him sound more open then Yami. WHAT'S YAMI'S PRBLEM? Is he too much of a gentle men? I think so. My boy friend is polite but definitely not perfect! Sometimes he disgusts me!
WHAY AM I TELLING YOU PEOPLE THIS?
PLEASE RESPOND TO THE WHOLE GROSS THING! WHAT DO YOU THINK?
