I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh-GX or its characters and I am not getting paid for this.

Chan: and here we have the second 'odd' and slightly disturbing paring.

The Warnings are: attempted suicide and possible incest if you squint a bit.

This Oneshot's paring is: Slade/Chazz. Kinda. It's mainly just brotherly love.

Summary: For once, Slade is not an abusive asshole. Slade comes home late from work one day to find something that shocks him to the core.

Enjoy!

Behind Close Doors
Slade's P.O.V.

I was late home from work again. Very late. I'd left the house before eight in the morning and it was now dark outside. I felt my heart sink slightly as the car pulled up in the drive. Jagger wasn't home yet either which meant Chazz had been on his own the whole day.

"Chazz I'm home!" I called out, dropping my stuff by the front door. There was no response from him. Sighing, I rubbed my forehead and started up the stairs. Most people think I don't care bout Chazz, but I do. I feel guilty when I work late and leave him alone like I had that day. I stopped outside Chazz's door and knocked.

"Chazz?" there was a small noise of assent from inside the room. "Are you listening?"

"Yeah…" his voice sounded odd like he might have been crying.

"I'm sorry I'm late Chazz…But I was thinking maybe when Jagger gets home we could go out for a meal, spend some time together."

"Yeah…sounds good..." His voice cracked in the middle of his sentence.

"Chazz?" I pushed open the door, looked into the room and screamed.

Chazz was sitting on his bed with his head in his hands, covered in blood. I could sense my self drop to my knees beside him worried and panicked.

"What happened Chazz? Did someone do this to you?"

"No…" Chazz had started sobbing. "I did it to myself…" it was then that I noticed his wrists.

"Oh you idiot…." My arms wrapped around him almost automatically. "It's gonna be alright." I promised, already reaching for the phone. It seemed like forever until someone answered but in reality it was only a few seconds.

"I need an ambulance." I snapped as soon as the lady on the other end answered. "It's my brother, he's slit his wrists."

"How long ago was this?"

"I…I don't know. I only just got home." I glanced at Chazz.

"Half an hour ago…" he mumbled. I repeated this to the lady. Why the hell did I have to be late? I thought whilst pressing against Chazz's wrists and holding them above his heart as I was being instructed.

When I hung up the room seemed eerily quiet, apart from Chazz crying. I let him rest his head on my chest until sirens started, somewhere nearby.

"Come on Chazz, let's get you downstairs."

The paramedics pushed me right out of the way when they arrived. Anger coursed through my body as my brother was pulled out of my grip and helped into the ambulance. He didn't seem to like it either.

"Slade!" he cried. I forced my way to him and grabbed his hand.

"You'd better come with us too." Said one of the paramedics, helping me into the vehicle. They let me hold his hand all the way to the hospital but when we got there they took him away to have stitches, leaving me standing alone in the waiting room. I had to go and stand outside to ring Jagger.

"He what?!" His voice had gone oddly high pitched.

"I know...How long until you can get here?"

"An hour." He growled. "Take care of him I'll be there as soon as I can." And then we hung up.

I waited on one of the stiff, hospital chairs until a nurse came over carrying a clipboard.

"Are you here with Chazz Princeton?" she asked. I nodded in response.

"Is he ok?"

"He will be eventually. Where are his parents?"

"Not here. He doesn't have any." I snapped.

"Oh. Then I guess you'd better be the one to sign this." She handed me a form with Chazz's details on. I hadn't realised until then, but my hand was shaking so badly I had trouble to sign it.

"You can come and see him now." She led me down a corridor to where Chazz was sitting on a bed in a side room. Bandages were wrapped around his arms and his eyes were red rimmed from crying.

"Sorry Slade." He mumbled to his shoes.

"Sorry" I half yelled. "What do you have to be sorry for?"

"Trying to kill myself…" he replied, fiddling with the loose end of one of his bandages. I sighed and stood next to him.

"I'm the one who should be sorry Chazz. I'm the one who never pays you any attention…I take you for granted…" I watched Chazz blush slightly. "I promise I won't make that mistake again."

"You shouldn't promise." He said getting to his feet.

"No, I should. I should've promised it a long time ago." I smiled down at him, and then told him something I hadn't told him in years. "I love you Chazz, I truly do."

"I love you too Slade…" he replied, silently blushing. A grin spread across my face and I grabbed him into a hug.

"I'm glad you're still here, honey."

Chazz blinked up at me, shocked into silence before cautiously hugging me back.
