===Atemu pov===
With the greatest care, I held Yugi's hand. White bandage were wrapped around his eyes. Isis had told his that his eyes were damaged from the traveling back from the portal. Luckily his eyes are not permanently damaged, they only need a few days to heal. My thumb gently rubbed against his hand. My eyes wonder on his body, light pink burn covered his back. My eyes sadden at the wounds of the boy.
"Are you thirsty?" I asked
"No." he answered
"Are you hungry?" I asked
"No, I'm fine." he said
"Is there anything you need?" I asked
"Atemu, you are not going to earn your forgiveness like this." he said
"Sorry…" I said softly
Yugi turned his head towards me and smiled gently, I smiled back wishing he could see me. The boy moved a few inches away and patted the space next to him.
"Please sit next to me." he said
I nodded my head and sat next to the boy, Yugi wrapped his arm around mine and rested his head on my shoulder. I placed a smile kiss on his forehead, Yugi smiled and purred happily.
"How long do I have to keep the bandages on for?" he asked
"Isis said she wants you to have them on for a few more days." I answered
"Alright." he said
"Princess Serenity and Mai will be leaving today." I said
"Really, I was hoping I could spend a little more time with them." he said
"Yes, they want to get back soon for this 'adoption' you had mention." I said
"I am glad they will get to be with each other now, they deserve it." he said softly
I smiled gently and kissed the boy's forehead once more. He has such a sweet heart and a kind mind…how could I be cruel enough to hurt this poor boy. We remained silent for a few moments until someone came into the room. I turned my head to see it was princess Serenity and Mai with Hikmat on her shoulder. The phoenix flew over to Yugi and rested on his lap.
"How are you feeling Yugi?" Serenity asked with worry
"Just a little sore but, I am good." he said
"We were worried when we heard you feel close to a fire." Mai said
My lips tighten…I had to lie to Serenity and Mai, I couldn't let them know where Yugi was truly from. They wouldn't under he is from a different time. Yugi nodded gently and petted Hikmat's feathers.
"Don't worry, I will be fine I just need to rest for a few days." Yugi said
"That is best, we are sorry that we have to leave. We could have helped you around." Mai said
"I am fine, Atemu is helping me." he said
"That is very nice of you Atemu." Serenity said
"Yes, I feel I should take care of him since he was hurt in my presence." I said
I gently clutched Yugi's hand, he squeezed back just as gently. I smiled gently and rubbed his thumb gently.
"So Serenity are you going to adopt a boy or a girl?" Yugi asked
"Well…I don't know, I just want to help a child that needs it." she answered softly
"I see." Yugi said
"I will be happy when I get to spend the rest of my days with my princess." Mai said
She wrapped her arms around Serenity's shoulders and planted a kiss on the smaller woman's cheek. Serenity's face turned a bright red color. I chuckled softly and turned back to Yugi, he smiled gently at the two women.
"I am glad you two have each other." Yugi said
"I am too, thank you Yugi for everything you have done. If you ever need something please do not hesitate to tell me." Serenity said
"I won't, thank you Serenity. Have a safe back to your kingdom." Yugi said
"We will, please come by again whenever you wish." Serenity said
Yugi nodded his head, Hikmat got up from Yugi's lap and flew over to Mai's shoulder. They said their good byes and left. Yugi sighed sadly and leaned back against his pillows. I looked at him worried.
"Are you ok?" I asked
"Yeah, just a little sad." he said
"About Serenity and Mai." I said
"…Yeah." he answered
I wanted to press the matter further but, I doubt Yugi will tell me even more. For now, I will have to wait on that. I moved off of the bed and pulled the sheets up to his shoulders.
"You need to get some rest." I said
"Yeah, I am feeling kind of tired." he said tiredly
"Then get some rest young one, when you wake up I will be here with something to eat." I said
"Thank you Atemu." he said as he yawned
Soon Yugi fell asleep, carefully I ran my hand over the scars. Just like these scars the wrongs I have done will fade but, it will take time. And I will wait for Yugi's forgiveness…but…can I forgive myself for what I had done…
