Well here's the next chapter. and well i didn't really mean for a pairing here so umm...


Chapter 2

Back in domino city, Yugi was going to meet his friends at Kaiba land. He sighs to himself and tries to force a smile before he gets there.

Come on yug! You can do it again today, yugi thought to himself, trying to get himself to act ok in front of his friends they can't see you like this…just try harder… He took a deep breath and held it until he started to turn the same color as his eyes.

"Pah!" He let it all out and tries on his biggest smile. That's when he notices he's in a forest… wah.. No way! There aren't any forests around here!! I know I wasn't paying attention but come on! There's no way I walked into a forest .. He was walking with his head down and as you heard from him.. He paid no attention what so ever.

AH!! Where am I?!?!?

Yugi begins to wander around the forest unaware of the eyes following his every move. After 10 minutes of aimless walking he came into a clearing. It was a large hill with no trees on either side. It was a peaceful place. The wind was whistling through the grass and the trees were dancing along.

Yugi then closes his eyes and enjoyed the peace. His heart suddenly felt lighter. He no longer felt empty anymore.

aahhh~. Its nice to finally relax. Strange how this place makes me forget my worries.

He starts to sit down but then a soft sound catches his ears. Yugi strains his ears to the sound and follows it up the hill. He's near the top of the hill and he can clearly hear the melody. It sounds so sweet to his ears and makes him feel a lot happier than before.

He begins to walk slower quietly humming merrily to the song. He closes his eyes and only walks in the direction of the song. He felt the ground go straight and he opened his eyes. The tops of the hill was a complete circle and in the middle sat a lavender colored hair girl. As he approached the strange girl he sees a small instrument in her hand. A type of flute but it's too small to be a flute. If Tea was here she would probably know what it is.

For a brief moment the feeling of loneliness comes back to him. Once his eyes fell back upon the girl they all fled. He smiled a real smile. Something he hasn't done in a long time. He came closer and observed her simplicity. She has long bangs that covered her face, short hair that came touched her shoulder blades. Her eyes were closed and her lips looked as they were used to smiling. He sat next to her and only then did she note his presence.

The girl opens her eyes and stared blankly at Yugi. A strange feeling came over Yugi. He hasn't felt this way since his last crush ,which is still going on. The feeling was slightly different. This girl was so very cute, but he didn't blush. Her eyes were blank and she seemed lonely. Yugi felt sorry for the girl.

She must have been lonely. She is here all by herself.

Yugi didn't resist the urge to give her a hug. He just pulled her into the biggest bear hug he could. He felt her warmth flow through his body.

She.. She's so warm…

Small hands touched his back. Yugi quickly realized what he had done.

"ah! Sorry I didn't mean to suddenly… uh…" Yugi said while pulling away. He quickly stood up. "…so umm… what's your name?" He gave her a nervous smile and he could tell she noticed. He held out his left hand for his right was cooling down his neck.

"…"

"Oh! Umm I'm Yugi Mouto! Heh, sorry I should of said my name first."

The girl took his hand and put it to her cheek. Her warmth spread to his hand.

"wow you're hot…" The girl gave him a puzzled look.

"ah wait! I didn't mean it like that, your not hot… Ah! Wait I don't mean your not pretty its just uhh, umm… you're cute…" Yugi's face turned red. The girl then put her hand to his face.

She's still warmer than me…

"…so uhh.. You still haven't given me your name…" what is up with this girl. Why can't I think straight?!?!

The girl stood up and put his hand on the top of her head and just stood there.

Wow she's shorter than rare... unless she's younger than me.

"umm" And for 60 second they just stood there as they were.

"My name is Caster." The girl finally said. She step away from Yugi. Now he could clearly see what she was wearing, A long white tank top that went down halfway to the knees, boot cut jeans, and black with silver stripes running shoes. The girl suddenly was filled with life. She twilled around the grass and Yugi just laughed as she tripped over he own feet. She laughed too such a sweet melody.

"What are you doing here?" Yugi asked the laughing Caster.

"I should be asking you the same thing."

"weee~ll" Yugi stretched the word so long it might run around the world twice.. "I was walking to go meet my friends and I wasn't paying any attention, so when I finally looked up. I was in this forest, which is weird because there are no forests where I live."

"ooo" Caster said with curiosity. "but why were you not paying attention you were going to meet your friends." She stumbled on the last work but Yugi didn't notice. He just told her all of his worries or what was left of them. She listened intensely and he enjoyed talking to her.

"…so that's how I ended up here." He sighed.

"Do you want to go back?"

"What?"

"Back with your friends."

"Yeah but I don't want to lie to them anymore."

"Then don't lie to them. Tell then how you feel"

"I don't they would understand…"

"I did…" The last line created an awkward silence between the two of them. They just froze in place for a while until Yugi realized what she said was the truth. She did understand and he barely knew her… maybe just maybe they would too.

"ok. I do want to go back but how am I supposed to get back. I don't even know how I got here."

The girl paused a bit and then said "I can take you there…" Yugi's eyes widened "but you have to close your eyes and don't open them unless I tell you, okay?"

"o-okay…" Yugi followed her back down the hill and closed his eyes. Her small hands guided him through the trees. He could still hear the wind blowing and the trees swaying. Then the sounds starting getting softer and he couldn't hear anything. He felt lost and lonely. He gripped Caster's hand a bit harder. She returned the grip with a soft tap of her finger. He no longer felt lonely anymore. Her warm hand was the light in the darkness and led him out. He started to hear the noises of the city, cars driving by people talking. Soon enough he could hear I all around him. He didn't know who let go but his hands were free and he heard a soft whisper in his ear.

"ok now you can open them."

He obeyed and opened his eyes. He was at the door to Kaiba land. He turned around to face Caster.

"thanks Ca-" She was no longer there. "wha-" He was interrupted by a cheerful voice.

"YUGI! You're here!" He turned and saw his friends running toward him

"what took you so long, Yuge?" Joey said

"umm I had to do something along the way" He said deciding not to tell them about Caster.

"Really? What was it Yugi?"

"ummm-"

"Well whatever it was we can talk about it inside lets go have lunch!" said Tristian.

"Agreed!" Replied Yugi.

As the group of friends walked to the food court Joey, Tristian and tea stayed behind.

"Hey, is it just me or does Yugi seem a bit happier than usual." Tristian asked.

"yeah, Somethang good hapan to 'em?" Joey said.

"We can only guess." Said Tea.

"no, we can only ask. HEY YUGE!" replied Joey while running to catch up with the others. Tristian and Tea followed shortly. They met up at a table for six. Joey and Duke went to buy the food while the others saved the table.
