Shattered

Hello everyone! I'm back! I should really be updating my other stories but it is Yu-Gi-Oh! month, so, I'll deal with the others later! Anyways, thanks for the reviews! It shows me that you guys are really reading my story and that you like it. I'm glad you guys do like it. I tried to make it as different as possible from the Unsweet Silence by Wordrcereress (hope I got that right). Anyways, onto the chapter!

Chapter 4: Nightmare

Yugi inched closer to Yami. The three just stared at Yugi with blank faces not really sure how to react. Anzu was the first to snap out of it.

"Guys, stop staring. It's rude and it's making the shorty uncomfortable." She scolded snapping Joey and Tristan out of their trance. The two rubbed the back of their heads sheepishly.

"Sorry Yugi." Tristan apologized.

"Is this why ya wouldn't come out?" Joey asked and Yugi nodded looking at the ground ashamed. 'They think I'm a freak. That I just want attention.'

"Yugi, we would never think badly about you. You are still the same you no matter what!" Anzu said with a smile. Yugi looked up at her with wide eyes. Why didn't she think he was a freak?

"No matter what Yugi," Yami said giving Yugi a soft smile. "We will be by your side and help you through this every inch of the way."

Yugi smiled and hugged Yami. He felt safe now. He could trust someone now. He could rely on someone to be there for him when he needed it.

Yami hugged Yugi back and that went on for half a minute until Joey splashed the two. The two broke apart and stared at Joey.

"We don't got all day!" Joey said playfully. Yami had a look of amusement and was busy focusing on the three in the water that he didn't know Yugi walk behind him and push him into the pool. Yami surfaced and watched as Yugi laughed. Actually laughed. It sounded so angelic and Yami had to force himself to hide his blush.

"Don't think you could get away with that!" Yami said playfully as he quickly swam to the edge and pulled Yugi into the pool before Yugi could react. They then went onto having a water fight. Yugi and Yami were on one team, Tristan and Joey were on another team while Anzu was on her own team.

A few hours passed and the sun was now slowly setting. Yugi was busy trying to swim away from Yami while Anzu tried to dunk Joey but Tristan ended up dunking Anzu instead.

"I think it's about time t get out," Joey said as he looked at the sky.

"Aww! I don't wanna!" Anzu pouted. Yami finally caught up to Yugi and jumped at him. This caused the both of them to go underwater for a few seconds before resurfacing.

"We still have to watch movies," Tristan pointed out as he swam to the edge with Joey. Anzu let out a defeated sigh as she swam over to the edge as well.

"I guess you're right." She muttered as Tristan climbed out of the pool. Yami and Yugi both swam to the edge of the pool as Joey and Anzu climbed out.

"So, what movie are we going to watch?" Yami asked as he got out of the pool alongside Yugi.

"Well, I was thinking it could be a horror movie." Anzu said as she threw Yami a towel and Yugi a towel. The two caught the towels and dried off as much as they could.

"Sounds cool." Tristan said with a smirk as he walked inside followed by Joey.

"Yeah, as long as ya don't piss yaself," Joey teased trying to hold back the laugh.

"Hey! That didn't happen!" Tristan yelled as he glared at Joey playfully. Yami rolled his eyes as he put the towel down by the other used towels. Yugi put his towel down and looked up at Yami with a smile.

"Thanks," Yugi said as he hugged Yami.

"For what?" Yami asked looking at Yugi with confusion.

"For what you did. I really needed it." Yugi replied as he looked up at Yami with a smile. Yami smiled back and hugged Yugi. They broke apart a few seconds later and followed the others inside.

The group had all got into their sleepwear and got the beds set up in the movie room. There was a huge screen int he middle of the wall and a projection connected to the ceiling. Yugi was on the far right with Yami on the right next to Yugi's bed. Anzu had the middle and Tristan had the left. Joey had the far left.

She walked over to the DVD player and opened a case. She put a movie in and walked back over to her bed. The film was projected onto the screen and the movie started.

Anzu, Joey, and Tristan all fought for popcorn until Joey won ending up with Tristan and Anzu having to go get their own.

The movie was pretty scary. It was called Murderer in the Woods and there was a lot of jump scars. Yugi would jump every time a scary scene appeared on screen and would hug Yami's arm tightly. Yami didn't mind.

The movie finished. Joey wasn't to shaken up but Tristan was. He was hiding under the covers. Anzu seemed unfazed.

"Alright, now what?" She asked looking around the room.

"Dunno." Joey replied trying not to laugh at Tristan.

Anzu shrugged and put on another movie. Tristan fell asleep first.

Yugi lay down in his own bed and fell asleep a few minutes later. Yami smiled as he pulled the blanket up over Yugi's shoulders. Yugi looked so peaceful. He then turned and shut Anzu and Joey up so they didn't wake Yugi up.

Yugi looked around not really sure where he was. Everything was pitch black but strangely, Yugi could see someone in front of him so he walked towards the figure.

He stopped a few feet away when he saw Yami standing there.

"Yami?" Yugi asked. Yami looked up at Yugi but didn't reply. Suddenly, Yugi's mother and father appeared behind Yami. Yugi's father raised his right arm and aimed a gun at Yami's back that would lead straight to his chest.

"YAMI NO!" Yugi yelled as his father pulled the trigger. Yugi tried to run to where Yami collapsed but the three vanished right as he got there.

Tears formed in his eyes as he looked around the lonely empty space. Then he heard a voice. His fathers voice as well as his mothers voice.

"This is what happens when you have friends." His father said with an evil tone. "We kill them."

"Give Yami back to me! Please! He's the only one I have trusted in a while and I can finally talk to him now! Please!" Yugi begged as tears streamed down his face.

"Too bad brat, he's gone. Dead. You won't ever see him again." His mother snickered. More tears streamed down his face as he fell to his knees.

"No...it can't be...this isn't possible...Yami please! Come back! I need you!" Yugi cried. He felt lonely. Forgotten. "Please Yami...don't leave me..."

Yami opened his eyes and looked around. Everyone was still asleep. He then sat up and looked over at Yugi. Silent tears were streaming down his tears and it looked like he was having a nightmare.

"Yugi, wake up. It's just a nightmare." Yami whispered as he tried to shake Yugi awake. But Yugi didn't reply.

"Yami...please...come back..." Yugi whimpered in his sleep. Yami stared at Yugi with confusion. What was Yugi dreaming?

"Yugi. I'm right here see? I'm fine." Yami whispered as he finally managed to wake Yugi up.

Yugi's eyes snapped open and he quickly shot up. He was shaking with fear. The dream had felt so real. Where was Yami?

Yugi looked to his right and saw Yami there with concern in his deep crimson eyes. More tears streamed down his face and he quickly wrapped his arms around Yami.

"Yami! You're alive!" Yugi cried quietly knowing that the others were still sleeping.

"Yes Yugi, I'm here. You're fine." Yami whispered softly as he rubbed Yugi's back comfortingly. He didn't mind Yugi crying into his chest. Right now, his friend needed his support.

A few minutes later Yugi's crying slowed to a stop and he pulled away from Yami whipping his eyes.

"Thanks, I needed that." Yugi whispered quietly.

"No problem." Yami said with a smile. He turned around and started to go back to his bed but stopped when Yugi called his name.

"Y-Yami?" Yugi asked. Yami turned around and stared at Yugi. "Will you...can you..." Yugi's voice trailed off as he stared at his bed with a light blush on his face.

Yami gave a soft smile knowing what Yugi wanted. "Sure." He said and Yugi smiled at Yami. The two then crawled into bed next to each other. Yami rested his chin on Yugi's hair and wrapped his arms around Yugi pulling him close. Yugi wrapped his arms around Yami and the two were asleep almost instantly.
