Chapter 4
Yuto carried Yuya in his arms as he took the Crimson-eyed duelist back to his home. He was beginning to wonder if all this was getting to be too much for Yuya. He was starting to feel bad about keeping him here when Heartland was still such a dreary place. . .He knew Yuya wanted to help, but Yuto wondered if going home would be better for his mental health. He could still come, but maybe just. . .short visits. Yuya blushed as he was carried in Yuto's arms. He loved how protecting Yuto was towards him and smiled as he relaxed in the raven's arms as they headed to Yuto's house. They got to the main square where they turned down the street; Yuya was tired just alittle bit, not that much anyway. He felt comfortable in Yuto's arms though and guessed he felt comfortable no matter what when it came to Yuto. He guessed that's what happens when you develop feelings for someone. He liked Yuto alot really, more than he ever liked anyone before. Maybe he could tell his counterpart his feelings since it would just be them at Yuto's house. There was really a slight possibility that Shun and Ruri would be at home since Shun was a workaholic really and Ruri was busy with other things.
Yuto brought Yuya back into his house, having alittle difficulty woth opening the door and holding Yuya in his arms at the same time, but he managed. He brought Yuya into the living room setting him gently on the couch gently, " How are you feeling?" He questioned, sitting on the couch next to him. Yuya had been quiet the whole way back. He wondered if he still had all those dark thoughts whirling around in his head. He hoped not. He didn't was Yuya to deal with things like that. That wasn't his burden to bare.
" I'm fine." He said with a small smile on his face, " My head just hurts alittle." He told the other as Yuto looked at him. He must've made Yuto worry with him being silent and all. He looked over at Yuto and flushed wanting to tell him but geez he couldn't. He was such a chicken. He remembered what Yuzu had told him; that he should just tell him and that Yuto wouldn't let this ruin their friendship. He gulped down hard before beginning to speak, " Hey umm Yuto can I. . .tell you something?" He asked as he began to blush. He was about to do this and there was no backing out.
Yuto blinked, alittle surprised, " Of course. You can tell me anything." He assured him. He had been about to suggest getting some pain meds or something like that, but he's listen to what he had to say to him first. He seemed. . .nervous somehow. . .?
Yuya fidgeted just alittle before taking a deep breath, " I-I just don't want to make you uncomfortable like I have been or anything. . ." He began. He was gonna do it; he couldn't back out, " I kind of. . .like you; you know more than lide." He blushed, " Just lately I've developed feelings for you." He added adverting his eyes away from Yuto. He didn't know if Yuto liked him back or not; or that he would think Yuto would find it weird that he liked him; well liked another boy really.
Yuto's eyes widened abit in surprised, momentarily not knowing what to say. Wait. . .Yuya. . .liked him? Like. . .like liked him. . .? He felt his heart startinf racing again and his cheeks flush up. This felt. . .alittle unreal to him. So it wasn't. . .just him feeling that way. . .? Well he supposed that cleared up if Yuya was seeing anyone or not. . .well he supposed no, he could have been but-! Yuto glanced away, feeling embarrassed abit now too. Now that it was his turned.
" I. . ." He swallowed, " I feel the same." He admitted carefully, still not able to look at Yuya, an embarrassed expression clear on his face, his hand brought up to cover his mouth abit.
The Pendulum duelist blushed waiting for the worse until he looked at Yuto. Did he hear right? Yuto liked him back? He liked. . .him back, " Y-you. . .feel the same." He spoke softly, " You like me too?" He asked feeling his heart race and the return of the butterflies in his stomach. He was happy to hear that Yuto felt the same way, but he didn't know what to do next now that he had told Yuto his feelings for him and Yuto had told him the same. He could see Yuto was embarrassed and he was too, but he was more happy than embarrassed to be perfectly honest at this point. He didn't know that Yuto felt the same, but now that he thought about it how Yuto would look at him made sense to him now.
Yuto nodded carefully in response, his mind racing abit with this new information. Yuya really did like him like that? Well. . .he supposed it made sense as to why he was always determined to be near him. This all felt. . .fast to him, but he'd falling fast and he hadn't had anyway to stop it, " I'm not. . .used to. . .this kind of thing. . ." He admitted. Yuto could be in control with alot of situations, but this one was completely new to him. He didn't quite know what to do. He shifted his eyes back to Yuya again, blush abit deeper now as he hoped that Yuya might have some idea on it.
Yuya happened to smile at what Yuto had said and completely agreed with him, " I understand that, i'm not good with this kind of thing because really you are the first person i've ever felt this way towards." Yuya began but stopped so he could think of what to say next; feeling that the Xyz duelst was nervous just by the way he looked at Yuya. He knew this was kind of fast and really all too sudden for Yuto and himself. Maybe they should start things slowly and ease their way into things not rush into it, " Maybe we can take this slow if this is all too sudden." He said, " O-only if you want to that it, but if not just let me know and. . .we can just forget about all this. I know it's all suden so that's ok if you want to do that." He exclaimed.
Yuto swallowed, feeling nervous about all of this, but. . .he took a breath to try and calm himself, " I'm not. . .really sure what I should even be doing. . .but. . .I wouldn't. . .mind trying. . .if it's with you. . ." He allowed carefully. Yuto gently removed his hand from his to place it gently over Yuya's, " If. . .it gets weird for you yoo. . .then. . .just tell me." He urged before continuing, " Let's. . .figure this out together. . .~" He offered softly with a nervous, but gentle smile.
Yuya smiled, when Yuto placed his hand ontop of his and nodded, " I promise it won't get too weird." He said as he leaned his head on Yuto's shoulder as he blushed. He was glad Yuto was willing to try and he wanted to try too, " Yeah, let's do this together.~" He said happily, but nervously as well. Yuto smiled as he carefully laced their fingers together giving his hand a tiny squeeze. He rested his head gently against Yuya's before remembering.
" Oh yeah, does your head still hurt? I can get you something for it." He offered him. As much as he did want to be with Yuya at that moment, he wanted to take care of him too. Yuya meant alot to him.
. . .It was just. . .nice to know that he also seemed to mean alot to Yuya too. . .~ That was. . .comforting. . .~
" It doesn't hurt that much anymore." He said happily as he had laced his fingers with Yuto's. He felt so relaxed here with Yuto and he didn't want him to get up and leave him even if it was only to give him some medicine. His head wasn't hurting that bad anymore so he was fine without the medicine. He was happy, so happy to know that Yuto felt the same way and wanted to stay like this for awhile. He snuggled closer to Yuto and let out a satisfied sigh. He didn't know if Yuto wanted Ruri and Shun to know but that was up to Yuto; for him to tell them if he wanted to. Yuto smiled when he heard the content noise from Yuya. This was filling him with such a pleasant warmth, he temporarily forgot how nervous he'd been about the whole thing earlier. Being with Yuya. . .it just felt. . .right.~
" It might be complicated, you know. Having a a cross dimension relationship." He pointed out calmly, " And people will talk. We're dimensional couterparts after all, I wouldn't be surprised if people though it was weird or unnatural." He continued. He did have concerns about how Yuya would be able to handle things if he was by himself and someone starting trying to bully him about it. . .
As for Shun and Ruri. . .Shun already seemed to know and even if Shun didn't exactly approve of Yuya, he knew that he would respect his choices, even if he didn't agree, but really, it wasn't like he fell for someone from Fusion or something. Then he could really see there being a probem. As for Ruri. . .she would probably be happy as long as Yuto was happy. Yuya seemed to smile though when he had explained to him how complicated this could be. He understood how weird this would be to others but he didn't really care as long as he and Yuto were happy.
" I know it'll be complicated but I know this will work out. I promise." He said as he leaned up and cupped Yuto's face in his hands. He smiled warmly at the other, " I know alot of people will talk but I don't really care what they would say because as long as we're happy then that's all that matters, right?" He asked. He personally knew Yuzu would be on board with their relationship as well as his mother. Well she already loved Yuto like her own in a way, so she will be ok with their relationship as long as her son was happy.
Yuto felt himself melt abit looking at Yuya like this. He really. . .really liked him. . .~ " You're right." Yuto agreed, returning the smile softly. Yuto gently brush part of Yuya's bangs behind his ear, " But if anyone tries to bully you for it, please tell me." He urged him softly, " I want to be able to look out for you too. Even if we are a dimension apart." Yuto cared very deeply for Yuya. He hoped that this wouldn't turn into something unpleasant for the other boy. He would do his best to just be positive source in Yuya's life, just like he was in his.
" I will and you tell me if someone says anything to you about it. I'm not much of a fighter or anything like that, but I can just talk someone's ear off." He giggled with a blush. He loved how protecting and just loved how Yuto wanted to look out for him and he wanted to do the same for his counterpart as well. Yuya cared so much for Yuto and was glad tis was happening. e never thought it would happen but he was happy that it did happen. He knew he would make Yuto happy and that Yuto would do the same for him too.
The raven chuckled softly, happy to hear that the Entertainer Duelist was so ready to defend their relationship too. His eyes gained a soft, loving look to them as he looked into Yuya's perfect, beautiful crimson ones, " Someone as perfect as you, you're too good for me. But I promise i'll do my very best to be worthy of someone like you.~" He assured him. Yuto got embarrassed about certain things, but whene he got into the right mood, the amount of corny things he could say about people that he loved didn't exactly have a limit to them. He didn't really think to hard about what he was saying, he just spoke his complete honest feelings on the matter.
The other blushed and smiled at Yuto's words, they just made his heart beat happily, " I'm not that great. You are perfect Yuto and I only wish to be worthy for you as well." He said. He loved to hear Yuto's sweet words and just wanted to hug and kiss him to death, but he didn't want to kiss Yuto too quickly making the other think it was going too fast or anything. He wanted to take things slow, " You're just too perfect and make me so happy Yuto and I only wish to make you happy as well." He said and hugged the other. He never wanted to let him go for as long as he lived. Yuto wrapped his arms around the other, one arm holding him securely around the back and his opposite hand rested on the back of Yuya's head.
" Well I'm flatter you feel that way about me." He returned with a soft smile, " But you already make me very happy." He clarified. To be honest, Yuto did feel like he wanted to kiss Yuya too. Atleast once, just to try it; but all the same, he was nervous that he would mess it up. He hadn't kissed anyone before, he had no idea what he was doing. He just. . .knew that he wanted Yuya close to him, " Maybe. . .we should go on a date sometime them. To. . .test things out." He mused carefully, " But there isn't exactly alot to do around here right now." Just. . .going on dates was a thing people who lied each other were supposed to do, right?
" Yeah we can do that. . ." He nodded, " I wouldn't mind what we did though, be it we walk around or what as long as i'm with you I don't mind." He blushed feeling abit embarrassed and nervous at the same time, " Yeah but to me it's spending time with the person I like; I don't mind to go out to eat or do something like that. Just being with the person you care and love is the best thing." He explained. Yuto nodded, he did agree with that. It did seem alittle odd that Yuya would say that though. Not that he didn't think that Yuya believed in personal time or something, but more that, as an entertainer, he would have thought that Yuya would think the fun and entertainment aspect of a date was important.
Although. . .he supposed he coulf be saying that to make Yuto feel better about not having a lot for them to do, " Still i'll. . .try and think of something. We can. . .take turns or plan things together. . ." He suggested, " If we end up having more than one date that is." He added in, getting abit of an embarrassed blush. He gathered from the situation that was likely, but all the same, he still felt the nervousness pricking at him from this unknown territory he was venturing into, " It's not as thought every date has to be here either really. Standard is probably a much better place for it right now." Heartland would have been but. . .right now. . .
Yuya smiled and nodded, " Of course we can plan together, just until we feel more comfortable with everything you know?" He asked looking at the other. he knew he must be feeling the same he was. He was still settling on the thought of them being together in his mind. He also had never been on a date before or kissed anyone for that matter so this was all new to him, " Be it in Heartland or Standard I don't mind which. I just really want to be with you Yuto and that's all." He said, as long as he was with Yuto things would be fun and entertaining for him. He wasn't just saying it because of the way Heartland was right now; besides it would only be temporary as it was being fixed up right now, not much longer and it'll be the Utopia they all remembered, " But promise me one thing Yuto." He began, " Once Heartland is back and fixed up. I still want you to show me the Utopia that you grew up in." He said with a smile.
" Of course I will. I'd like to, really." He said. He had been alittle surprised by that last part, " Especially if all you can see of Heartland is how it is noow and those painful memories I gave you. I wish I could have shared those memories with you too. That field spell that Reiji made does nothing to give it justice." He hated that he played that, but what he hate more was that Reiji only activated it around Shun. Had he purposely been trying to hurt him? That had never been ok. He couldn't say he didn't still hold somewhat a grudge against him for it, even if he was a big part in ending the war and even if he did now send supplies there to help them. In Yuto's eyes, it didn't really make him any less of an asshole.
As far as dating went, he supposed he just needed abit of time for the shock of it to subside so he could settle into it better. Then maybe he'd be able to try and figure something they could do together.
" I would really love to see it, don't worry about those memories it's ok." He said with a soft smile, " I couldn't agree with how Reiji did that. It made me angry that he did it and it must've been terrible for Shun to relive all that. Sora wasn't helping either with the way he was acting. He said. He hated Reiji for doing all that just to get to Shun and he really wanted to hurt the LDS CEO. He could never forgive Reiji for everything he had done; but he guessed he could be grateful that Reiji made the cross dimensional thing, the Solid Vision and all that; especially giving Heartland the supplies they needed to help rebuild Heartland. He felt disgusted with Reiji Akaba really.
Yuto pulled back abit when he heard the front door open, " I'm home!" Called the familiar female voice of his best friend's sister.
" We're in here!" Yuto called back, just as a confirmation, though he did pull back from Yuya. Just because they would accept it, didn't make it less embarrassing. Still, he didn't want Yuya to feel insulted or like Yuto was trying to hide things so he held Yuya's hand lightly. Yuya understood when he heard Ruri's voice and held the other's hand. he was just happy to be able to hold Yuto's hand. He didn't feel insulted when Yuto pulled back he understood it would be embarrassing.
Ruri walked into the room, giving Yuto and Yuya a quick glance, not immediately noticing the hand holding before focusing on taking off her bag and such, " Welcome back! How was the trip yesterday?" She questioned. Yuya could see that Ruri didn't seem to notice them holding hands at that moment for she was taking off her bag and setting it down along with some other stuff.
" It was good." He answered the question; looking at Yuto with a smile.
Ruri nodded, then turned back to them, " That's good! Brother was alittle worried when he heard tou were going to be out all night, Yuto. Why didn't you tell me you had a concussion!" She scolded, " Well anyway, it's good that you. . ." She trailed off, her eyes finally falling on their joined hands, " Umm. . .?" She looked at them both questioningly for an answer, making Yuto blush abit deeper.
Yuya looked at Yuto; not sure if the raven wanted to tell her of if he wanted Yuya to do it. He didn't mind too though; it was whatever Yuto wanted. He didn't know by her facial expression if she was disgusted or just shocked to see them holding hands. He didn't say anything though just thinking that Yuto wanted to tell looked at Yuya and nodded slowly, " It was. . .Yuya." He replied to her before letting his eyes wander back to her surprised face again. Out of context his statement probably didn't make sense, but Ruri understood. Yuya didn't understand what he was talking about but he looked over at Ruri who giggled.
" Of course it was. I should have known." She shook her head, " So I guess that must have been a really good trip then!~" She guessed, not knowing that they had onlt been mutually confirmed moments ago, " I'll admit, it does seem alittle odd for me to fall for someone who has the exact same face as you, but I guess you don't really pick who you fall for anyway. Still, I didn't know you were secretly a narcissist, Yuto.~" She teased him, making him roll his eyes.
" Ruri. . ." He gave her a gentle warning tone.
Yuya was happy to see that it seemed she accepted their relationship but he had to guess that Yuto talked to Ruri about it but didn't tell her who it was. Ruri seemed like someone who would go tell her brother everything so there was a small chance that maybe Shun would know as well and if not he would soon enough.
The one thing Yuya wanted to know was what she was talking about, " What do you mean by that Ruri?" He asked wondering what she was talking about when she mentions the trip. She she saying that got together then?
" By what?" They heard to see Shun standing at the doorway, he looked over at his sister and then at Yuto, then he noticed Yuto's and Yuya's hands jointed together. He walked in closing the door and set his bag on the couch.
" Oh! Brother! You're home earlier than usual!~" She noted, rather pleased to see him, " Turns out Yuya was the one Yuto was talking about yesterday!" She clarified off their conversation the day before, " And they're dating now." She added with a smile.
Yuto blushed, feeling rather frazzled by that, " W-well, dating would imply that we've been on multiple dates." He clarified, " Not that i'm against that, just-" Yuto blushed abit deeper, feeling like he was digging himself into a deeper hole now. Now this was embarrassing. . .
Yuya blushed, well that confirmed it all really; Ruri had told Shun and now Shun knew as well. He could see Yuto's face was as red as a tomato and that this was embarrassing; it was beginning to be embarrassing for him as well.
" They told me to leave early since we're almost finished with the school." He stated before Shun looked at the two, " Soo you finally told him." He said before looking at his sister, " I knew they liked each other." He added with a shrug, " It's easy to read Yuto. . .no read both Yuto and Yuya." He added, " Oh and I don't think it technically counts as dating until they've gone out on one, wouldn't you say?" He asked, " I mean I don't know if that's how it is." He said.
" Easy for you maybe! Not everyone has the same weird silent connection that you and Yuto have." She pointed out, " Besides, for all I know, it could have been you he was talking about. It's not like he doesn't constantly speak highly of you either." She added.
Ok! That was enough! Yuto got up, " I'm-! I'll be right back." He noted to them, just needing a moment to collect himself. He would have thought his not having parents would have saved him from this, but living with his best friend and his little sister evidently had the same effect. Yuto headed to the bathroom, thinking he's just splash some water on his face or something and try and calm himself down abit. That was all way too much embarrassment for what was probably not even an hour in total.
Shun and Yuya watched Yuto get up and run to the bathroom. Shun thought they should leave it alone for now; so Yuto could calm down. He understood that Yuto was not use to this kind of thing. Ruri and he didn't make it any easier for him either, " Just give him time." He said looking at Yuya before sitting down on the couch. Yuya nodded as he wondered if Yuto was ok, but guessed he needed some time for himself for a minute or so. he got up from the couch and grabbed his duel disk.
" I'm gonna call my mom to tell her night, can you tell him I went outside." He asked looking at the two before going outside to call his mom.
Ruri nodded, " Ok, Yuya!" She agreed. To some degree she was surprised about how supportive of all this Shun seemed, but it was for Yuto, so maybe it was different. Maybe that meant he wouldn't be so against her dating someone too them. . .? Although that seemed like slightly more of a lost cause. If she did want to date someone, she'd probably have to hide it for awhile. Her brother could be so over protective sometimes!
Yuto took a deep breath, splashing water on his face to try and coold down his beet red face. Ok, that part was maybe too much too fast. He was confident about his feelings for Yuya, but he still. . .needed to let his feelings settle alittle bit. It was all too new too fast. He felt alittle bad that he needed Yuya to wait for him abit, but Yuto have been fairly closed off for a long time now. He'd had to harden his heart. It was alot to suddenly be opening up again.
Yuya sat on a broke peive of a building before bringing out his duel disk to dial for his mom. he waited for her to answer and he smiled when she did, " Hey Mom."
" Hey Yuya, you staying there again?" She asked as he nodded, " Oh the kitten has been missing you. Keeps whining but he's asleep now." She said moving the screen to the little black kitten on his bed sound asleep.
" Sorry you've been taking care of him alot Mom, but I'll be home soon. . .but-" He said but she stopped him.
" I know it's alright I promise. He's such a sweet heart. Have you figured a name for him yet?" She asked as he shook his head.
" Not yet, but i'll think about it." He said with a smile on his face, " I was just calling to check in and to say goodnight and love you Mom." He added as she smiled.
" Night and love you too dear, be safe over there. I know Yuto is there but be safe." She said as he nodded and she hung up. He decided maybe he should call Yuzu but guessed she would be asleep now so he didn't. He looked up to see how dark it was getting outside. It was starting to get chilly outside too but that didn't bother him. He decided he should sit out here for alittle while and enjoy the night air before going back in.
Yuto finally left the bathroom; after being able to calm down abit. He saw Yuya missing from the couch, going to check his room before heading to the kitchen where Ruri and shun were, " Where's. . .?" he began before Ruri interjected.
" Outside, he said he wanted to call his mom; I don't know if he's still talking to her though but he's been out there for awhile and it's probably starting to get chilly." Ruri explained. Yuto nodded and thanked her before leaving the kitchen. He wondered if he should interrupt Yuya, but. . .he wanted to check. Yuto popped his head out the door seeing that his counterpart wasn't on his duel disk anymore, before stepping out completely.
" Hey." He greeted gently, sitting himself down besides Yuya, " Sorry. . .I just- it was getting to be abit too much for me."
Yuya heard Yuto and turned towards him and then shook his head, " No worry it's ok, I understand completely." He said and smiled, " I just wanted to tell Mom night and check up on everything. She says the kitten misses me or something but she doesn't mind to take care of him really." He explained, " I just wanted some air too it feels great out here right now." He added looking over at Yuto before patting in the spot beside him for Yuto to sit at. He understood that it was getting too much for Yuto and he wanted Yuto to get more use to thing before anything else. He understood that Yuto had to leave the room for awhile.
Yuto sat down besides Yuya, " Admittedly. . .being in a relationship, or pursuing one. . .it feels off to me. I don't think. . .i've fully been able to settle down after. . .everything. . ." He explained carefully. He still had pretty violent nitemares. . .Though luckily he'd avoided those the past few days. It did occur to him that it was something that he should eventually discuss with Yuya though. If he was going to be sleeping in his bed with him during his visits, " But I. . want to try. I need to get myself to stop living in the past, it's just. . .hard to calm myself from all that." I. . .went throug that for three years before I came to Standard you know." He gave him a weak, half hearted smile, " But. . .I really like you, Yuya. You might just. . .have to wait for me alittle bit. I'm not saying don't try anything please do, I just. . .can't promise i'll be able to handle every situation as smoothly as I might like." He explained carefully.
Yuya placed his hand ontop of Yuto's and smiled warmly, " It's ok Yuto I understand, I know it's hard for you with everything that had happened." He really was ok with all of this; he understood it would be hard for him if he had lived through all of that. His mind liked to play those memories of everything that had happened over and over as if he was there when he wasn't, so he understood what Yuto had been through. . .well mostly anyway, " Yuto you take all the time you need. I'll wait for however long I need to for you, because I really like you too." he said in a soft tone, " I'll wait forever if you want me too." He added.
Yuto's expression softened, getting abit of a touched look to his eyes when he looked at him. It was reasons like this that he felt thankful that it was Yuya he had fallen for. He really was a sweet, understanding boy, and. . .they had that connection for so long, it wasn't too surprising to him that Yuya could easily understand how he felt. Yuto turned his hand over gently and laced their fingers together, " I'll try my best too." He had alot of damage that he needed to slowly work on healing and as much as he didn't want to push that on Yuya, having him might help him heal just alittle faster. . .~ Yuya's expression stayed the same as he laced his fingers with Yuto's. He wanted Yuto to get better but at his own pace and he wanted the Xyz duelist to know that he was gonna be there by his side while he did so.
His heart raced happily as he looked over to Yuto then the night sky, " We should probably head back inside now it's getting to get cold outside." He said. He wouldn't mind to snuggled against Yuto against but they didn't have a blanket besides Shun and Ruri wouldn't want them staying outside in the cold and risk getting sick.
" Alright." Yuto nodded softly giving Yuya's hand a little squeeze. He got to his feet, helping Yuya up as well before heading back inside with him again. He was starting to feel alittle worn out. It had been a long day, thinking about it now. He supposed it wasn't that surprising. he would mind just laying down and relaxing. Yuya walked in with Yuto and guessed that Ruri and Shun went to bed or something because they were in the living room or in the kitchen when they came back. He was kind of tired and he could see Yuto was as well. He knew they had another long day of work ahead of them tomorrow so wouldn't hurt to lay down and relax abit. He did nearly go Berserk in a Children's Daycare; which he did his best to hold back the urge to cause harm and he guessed it took alot out of him to do so. Yuto looked to his his current romantic interest with somewhat sleepy eyes, " I'm pretty tired, so I think I might just got straight to bed. You can stay up longer though if you want to." He offered. He was fine with Yuya coming in later. He didn't want to dictate when the other went to sleep after all. Yuya looked over to Yuto and nodded.
" I might stay up alittle longer. I'm kind of tired from today's. . .events." He explained. He was quite worn out, but he wanted to stay up alittle longer. Yuto was quite surprised to hear the other say that. He grabbed his PJ's going to the bathroom to get changed. He. . .especially felt like he should change in front of Yuya now. He blushed lightly from the thought. Yuto didn't take that long to get changed, heading back to the room. Normally he would have mentioned something about Yuya changing too, but since he was staying up later, he figured he would be until he wanted to go to bed and by then Yuto would probably be asleep then.
Yuya had too many things in his head to go through before going to sleep. Like his and Yuto's newly found relationship and with what happened at the Daycare. He didn't think he would be able to go to sleep anyway. Now that he thought about it his headache was still lurking there, but it wasn't as bad as it was before, if it got worse then he could probably take aspirin or something for it later.
Yuto got into bed and got under the covers before looking at Yuya, " Yuya. . .if you need me for anything don't hesitate to wake me up, ok?" I won't be mad, I promise." He urged him. If Yuya had any problem, he wanted to be there to help him. He did mean alot to him after all, " If you go out. . .just be careful. . .I suppose it's not like there's really anything too scary out there anymore. . .but I just. . .can't shake the feeling. He gave a but of a humorless laugh, " Just stay safe." He urged him softly.
Yuya smiled and nodded, " I will I promise." He said, he knew he was looking out for Yuya and it made him smile, " Night Yuto have a good sleep." He wished the other, " I'll make sure to be careful. After all careful is my middle name." He said with a soft giggled trying not to be too loud to wake Shun or Ruri. He hadn't thought about going out at night but if anything a nice little walk would be good for him.
Yuto debated on pointing out that even when Yuya was careful trouble seemed to follow him anyway, but he kept it to himself instead. Yuto rested his head against the pillow, making sure there was room for Yuya when he decided to go to sleep. He kept his eyes on Yuya, a bit of worry flashing through his eyes before he reminded himself that the war was over and Heartland wasn't the dangerous place it use to be, " Good night, Yuya." He replied, settling himself abit more and shutting his eyes. Yuya watched the other fall asleep; he knew Yuto would probably worry about him but he knew he could take care of himself. Yuya sighed softly before looking up. He was happy that him and Yuto were gonna try this relationship. He guessed it would take awhile for it to settle in.
He grabbed a jacket and put it on as he then grabbed his duel disk just in case; he decided to take a walk outside. He didn't expect anyone to be outside at night and he was right. Once he opened the front door and stepped outside it was dead quiet outside. He turned down the street and arrived in the main square. He stopped and looked around seeing the work that everyone had been working their hardest on and smiled. He was glad things were running smoothly. The Pendulum duelist couldn't contain his happiness anylonger. Out here he knew he could be loud. . .well not too loud anyway.
" Heartland soon enough you'll be better and so will everyone else." He said softly, " The war is over now and everything is ok. . .I don't know why this darkness is still here." He said in a low whisper as he placed his hand on his chest and then looked up at the night sky, " If only it could go away. . ." He said as he closed his eyes taken in the night breeze. His eyes shot open when he heard footsteps and turned quickly to see a male standing there with brown hair.
" And if only you outsiders went away." He said as Yuya looked at him, " You people are the reason for this. You all are the reason for this and we all just want you to go away or we'll force you." He said as he stepped forward as another ran up and grabbed Yuya from behind, " Yuto is a good person and he shouldn't be so kind to you or any outsiders and just because you two share the same face doesn't mean anything." He added.
" Yuto is just a foolish kid as well, Shun knows what's up though. We don't even know why Shun allows you to be here or hang around Yuto. He doesn't really like you that much either and I think if it wasn't for Yuto he would pound ya alittle." The male - who holding Yuya from behind - said, " Yuto was always too kind for his own good though and trusting outsiders like you will be his downfall." He added.
" Take that back. . ." Yuya said bangs covering his eyes, his tone darkened; he didn't mind what they said about him but talking about Yuto was another thing. When the male grabbed him from behind his mind flashed back to the Heartland Invasion. The soldiers were gonna get him and he needed to stop them from harming him or anyone. He rammed his elbow in the older male's gut and when he let go of his grip on Yuya's waist he turned quickly and punched the male in the face, before going towards the other male and sliding down and side kicking him causing him to fall to the ground. He looked around for something to use as a weapon and grabbed a long pole and placed the sharp end at his throat, " You will take that back understood?" He growled as he smirked softly, " I really don't want to harm anyone but I'm defending myself and I won't stop, so I'll give you and your little friend the chance to run." He said as he backed off of the other. Yuya still had common sense not to hurt anyone; he needed to remember the war was over and he was alright; everything was ok. The two got up and ran off. He got up and dusted himself off as his eyes returned to normal. Damn it had happened again just then! But he was atleast glad he didn't hurt them too bad, even if they were trying to hurt him. He dropped the pole to the ground and decided he should head back now. He turned and began to head back to Yuto's home before slowly opening the front door and walking in. He closed it softly not to wake anyone and tip-toed to Yuto's room. He took off his shoes and was just so tired he forgot to even change into his pajamas. He took off his goggles and necklace though and placed them on the dresser and walked over to the bed and got under the covers beside Yuto trying not to wake him up. He smiled looking at Yuto's peaceful face. He would have to tell Yuto about the two guys trying to hurt him; but not the part about the darkness. He knew Yuto would kind of be upset or angry that Yuya didn't call him right when then but he really couldn't get to his duel disk at the time and his mind just blanked out. . .He closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
