Chapter 25: Getting Better (END)
Yami stood his ground but didn't make any sudden movements. This man didn't look like he was joking around and he had his index finger on the trigger, ready to shoot at any second.
"Leave this room before this gets anymore serious." The man said but Yami shook his head.
"No. I won't let you take me away from my hikari when he clearly needs me." Yami snarled darkly.
"The two of you stop it! James! Drop the gun!" The other officer shouted but the two still ignored her.
"This is your last chance." The man said but Yami shook his head again.
"That's it! I've had enough of you!" The man yelled almost pulling the trigger but Yugi stopped him.
"NO!" He yelled as more tears streamed down his face. "I WON'T LET YOU KILL HIM! I WON'T LET YOU TAKE HIM AWAY! I WANT HIM TO STAY! I NEED HIM!"
"Yugi," Yami whispered touched.
"I hate people like you. It's disgusting," the man said with anger. The other officer walked over and took his gun away.
"I told you, stop it. He can stay so drop it." She said and the man grit his teeth before walking over to the chair and sat down. Yami walked over to the bed and sat down. He pulled Yugi onto his lap and held him, rocking back and forth not caring that Yugi cried into his chest.
"I told you I wouldn't let them take me away from you," Yami whispered softly. The two officers waited and after about two minutes Yugi finally calmed down enough to answer their questions. He looked over at them wiping the tears away from his eyes.
"Alright, start the recorder." The female officer said and the man pressed a button and the tape recorder started recording. "I hope you guys don't mind. We need evidence that you really answer the questions the way you do."
Yami and Yugi nodded. Yugi was still hugging Yami and Yami was still hugging Yugi. Yugi needed all the support he could get in order to answer these questions.
The questioning went on for two and a half hours. Yugi had been close to breaking down about ten times and Yami had to calm Yugi down. The male officer had been annoyed through the whole thing as well as disgusted.
Yami had been relieved when the two decided to leave. Yugi calmed down as soon as they left and leaned his back against Yami's torso.
"It's okay hikari, soon all of this will be over." Yami whispered as he lay down. He hugged Yugi turned around and lay on top of Yami. Yami hugged Yugi.
"Where will I go after all this?" Yugi asked quietly as he listened to Yami's heartbeat.
"My place." Yami replied as he rubbed Yugi's back. "You'll live with me, Seto, and Mokuba." Yugi smiled and hugged Yami.
"I love you," Yugi whispered.
"Love you to, my hikari," Yami replied softly. "Now, try to get some more sleep. Now that the poison is starting to die away, you should get as much sleep as possible."
Yugi obeyed and soon fell asleep on top of Yami. Yami didn't mind though. He only smiled and fell asleep soon after, both of them happy.
The next few days passed quickly. Yugi had gone to court with the others to support him. His parents had been determined guilty and his sister was now being watched by the police for using Yugi as her own personal slave. The mayor had agreed that Yugi was old enough to chose where to live so he didn't have to go to the orphanage.
Yugi was now living with Yami, Seto, and Mokuba. He slept with Yami. The two would spend all of their time together.
Yugi was currently sitting on the couch in the living room bored out of his mind. It was Monday so Seto, Yami, and Mokuba were likely at school. He wasn't allowed to go to school since his wounds were still pretty serious. He was still suppose to be at the hospital but the only reason he was there was because of the whole court thing. He couldn't move around the house since Seto ordered him not to.
He let out a bored sigh and lay back on the couch. He stared up at the ceiling not sure what to do. Sure there were Seto's guards but what could they do? Not much.
"Hello hikari," Yami said softly as he looked over the couch at Yugi's bored face. Yugi looked over at Yami with confusion. Why wasn't Yami at school?
"Hi Yami, but why are you here? Shouldn't you be at school?" Yugi asked with confusion. Yami smiled and walked around the couch and sat down by Yugi's side.
"I chose to stay home today." Yami replied simply with a shrug. "And you can't take care of yourself." Yugi rolled his eyes.
"Still, you should have gone to school. I'm fine on my own." Yugi replied and Yami smiled. He then leaned closer to Yugi and kissed him. Yugi kissed back.
They pulled apart a few minutes later. They stared at each other with happiness in their eyes. Yugi's parents were in jail and Yugi could live with Yami now. Course there was still Tea, but whatever lay ahead, the two would face together. Because they were one. They were lovers.
A/N: Thank you all for reading my story! This was my first, ever yaoi/gay pairing I've ever written. And, since then, I've written so much more with gay pairings (not with Yami and Yugi, different ones). I've grown with my writing style, with thinking of ideas. And, as I said at the beginning of the story (I think, it's been so long I don't remember) I didn't like gay parings. But now, I don't mind them at all. There are some limits with them, like no siblings (except one) (I won't say).
And that's pretty much all I wanted to say. So, thank you everyone for reading my story! I hope you enjoyed, and I'm glad you all stuck with me through this long journey which shouldn't have taken this long to finish.
