DISCLAIMER - I don't own Yugioh
Chapter 5
Normal POV
Yami's heart clenched and a wave of sadness washed over him. "Yugi I…I" He choked on the verge of tears. "Hey leave him alone you're bothering him" Maisie snapped.
"Quiet back there" the teacher called out. The three of them looked away and back to the front of the class.
They all worked for the rest of the lesson not talking, not even looking at each other. Yami was struggling to focus as he kept thinking about Yugi's response.
Finally, after what seemed like forever, the bell rang. Instantly Yugi jumped up and left with Harry, Rose, Maisie, Martha and Vicky following. Yami leapt to his feet and rushed after them. So did the rest of the gang.
xXx
As Yugi left the classroom he turned left and banged into Ushio. "Well if it isn't little Yugi" he sneered. Yugi just glared back. "Leave me alone". Yugi could hear all of his friends stop nearby and out of the corner of his eye he could see Yami and the others stopping a few metres away.
Ushio chuckled. "No way you're my favourite punching bag". He swung a punch at Yugi who quickly ducked and counterattacked. Yugi rolled over the floor so that he was behind Ushio and leapt up swinging his fist back as he went. Ushio turned around just as Yugi sent his fist rocketing forwards.
A loud smack sound could be heard as Yugi punched Ushio dead in the face. The force of the punch sent Ushio stumbling backwards as he howled out in pain, clutching his bruised face in his hands. Yugi leapt forwards and kicked one of his legs making the big bully collapse. "Don't mess with me, this is your last warning" Yugi spat venomously.
Yugi looked around at the shocked faces of Yami, Seto, Joey, Tristan, Ryou, Duke and Tea. "The same applies for you too" he glared at them before leaving.
Yami and the others turned to Martha and Vicky as the two girls let out a sigh of relief. "Phew I'm glad that Yugi wasn't really #!*% off. We got lucky" Vicky sighed. "Yeah last time someone #!*% him off there were ten people in hospital, two of them in critical condition and one of them died. Yugi is really scary when he is angry" Martha agreed.
"What" Yami, Joey, Tristan, Duke and Ryou cried out, unable to believe what they had just heard. "Dat's not like Yug at all. Yug wouldn't hurt anyone" Joey shouted. "Yugi has changed, he is no longer the boy you once knew" Martha retorted. "So if he wants you to leave him alone then leave him alone".
"Yugi is our friend. We will never give up on him. We will get our friend back and we won't stop until we do" Tristan shouted.
Vicky sighed. "We can't convince you to give up can we?" she asked the group. "Never" they replied. "Well don't say I didn't warn you. We were telling you to stay away for your own good because Yugi isn't as forgiving as he used to be. Actually it's like he has put a barrier between him and you guys and believe me, it will be hard to break that barrier and get his forgiveness". On that note Vicky, Martha, Rose, Harry and Maisie quickly ran off after Yugi.
"Well dis is harder dan we first thought" Joey sighed. "But we won't give up. I'm not giving up just because Yugi's new friend told us to" Seto snarled leaving no place for arguments. "I will get my Hikari back even if it is the last thing I do" Yami announced. 'Because I think I love him' he added in his head.
xXx
For the rest of the day Yugi ignored them and glared at them when they tried to talk to him.
"We need to speak to Yugi when he is alone. Yami can do that when they are at home. After all Yugi still lives at the game shop" Ryou sighed. Yami nodded as the bell rang signalling the end of school. "See you tomorrow" Yami said before he made his way back home.
He could see Yugi and his friends up ahead. Yami watched as Yugi said goodbye and split off from his friends. Yami waited until Yugi's friends were out of sight before running to catch up with Yugi.
xXx
Yugi's POV
I can't believe them. They only realise now that I didn't do anything wrong. And they think that they can just come up to me and ask for forgiveness, and then I would forgive them! I mean I know they are sorry but still! I can't forgive them that easily.
I walked down the street by myself. I was almost home, just two streets away when I heard the patter of running feet behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see Yami stop running beside me.
Why? Why did he have to come? He's the last person I want to speak to right now. "Hey Yugi wait up, I'll walk home with you" he panted, tired from his little run. I sighed. Yami really doesn't give up. I suppose I should forgive him, he's trying so hard to fix his mistake. But then again I might just teach him a lesson before I forgive him.
Normal POV
There was an awkward silence as Yugi and Yami arrived at the game shop. Yami was happy that Yugi didn't object to them walking home and had a small grin on his face. Solomon smiled too as he saw the two teens arrive together.
Yugi rushed off to his room and Yami followed. Once in his room Yugi threw his school bag onto the bed before sitting down at his desk and turning on his laptop. Yami watched him while he leant against the door.
"Yugi listen. I know you're mad at me, and I don't blame you for wanting nothing to do with me after the way I treated you. But I really am sorry and I would do anything to be friends again" he pleaded sadly.
Yugi sighed and got up. "You can't always get what you want Yami. Everything in this world is cause and effect. You chose your actions and this is the effect so deal with it". He pulled off the eye necklace he was wearing and placed it in Yami's hand. "You can have this back" Yugi replied to Yami's questioning look. Yami gasped. "But it is yours. It was a gift-." "I don't want it. Now I'm busy, I have work to do. The door is behind you" Yugi interrupted.
He turned and returned to his laptop. Yami looked at Yugi in shock then at the necklace in his hand. He slowly turned and left.
Yami instantly went to his room and fell onto his bed. He felt like his heart had just shattered into a thousand pieces. For the first time since the Orichalcos incident Yami cried for the loss of his Hikari.
xXx
That evening Yami refused to come down for dinner, depressed that he still couldn't get through to Yugi.
Yugi's POV
I sighed. Honestly he is depressed because I gave him back the necklace. I know it was harsh but I didn't think it would affect him this much. Maybe I should forgive him soon. But then again he needs to learn this lesson. I'll leave it for today and forgive him in a couple of days.
Normal POV
Solomon knocked on Yami's door again, a plate of steaming food in his hand. "Yami please come out and eat". There was no answer. Solomon pressed his ear to the door. The faint sound of crying could be heard. Solomon set the plate on the floor and called out "I'm leaving your food outside" before heading downstairs.
Yugi had just finished washing the dishes and was about to leave for his room. "Yugi" Solomon wearily called out. Yugi looked up. "What is it Solomon?" Solomon sighed. "Yugi please go and talk to him. I don't know what happened between the two of you but Yami is very upset. At this rate he's going to starve himself".
Yugi accepted defeat and quietly agreed with a "Yes Solomon". Yugi trudged upstairs to Yami's room where the food had been left untouched. Yugi bent down and picked it up before knocking on the door. "Yami" he called out. Silence. "Yami please eat". Still silence. Yugi sighed. "Listen Yami, I'm sorry about what I said before. I know it was harsh but I was just so angry. I… I just wanted to teach you a lesson. I didn't mean to upset you like this. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I forgive you". His voice cracked as he spoke the last three sentences.
Tears started to pour silently from his eyes as he let out all of his pain. Suddenly the door flew open and Yugi looked up to see Yami standing there. His crimson eyes were bloodshot from crying and his hair was ruffled and dishevelled. They looked at each other for a second until Yami suddenly pulled Yugi into a hug.
He held Yugi tightly, like he was afraid he would disappear into thin air. Hesitantly Yugi raised his arms and hugged back. "Thank you Yugi" Yami whispered into his ear. Yugi smiled slightly. "This doesn't mean we are friends like we used to be. It just means that I'm giving you another chance to start over. Who knows maybe we will be like we used to be, maybe we won't". Yami tightened his hold on the shorter teen and buried his head in Yugi's shoulder.
Yugi started to pull away but Yami held on. It had been forever since he had held Yugi close like this and he never wanted it to end. "Yami can you let me go now. Last time I checked breathing was pretty important". Yami sighed and reluctantly released him. Yugi gave him a watery smile, wiped the tears from his eyes and passed Yami the now warm dinner. "Please eat" he pleaded. Yami nodded and accepted the plate. "I've got lots of work to do, see you later" Yugi sighed before heading into his own room.
Yami watched him leave and returned to his room. Once the door shut he gave a quiet cheer of joy before he started to eat.
Yugi's POV
When I got back to my room I looked at my laptop and saw that I had received an email. Curiously I ran out and clicked open. It was from Seimei.
Yugi,
I have details about your first mission. You will be going with Maisie, Martha, Vicky, Harry and Rose. We believe that the light of the Ebdar system is being targeted. It is your mission to protect her. The light is the king's daughter, Princess Adrianne. I have attached information about how to act and your identities to this email. This mission may take a while so tell your family that you are going on holiday or something. Good luck Yugi,
Seimei
I gulped excitedly. Finally I have my first mission. I can't wait to show off what I've learnt in training. But then again, I won't be able to see Yami for a while and he might get depressed again. What should I do? Should I tell him the truth? I'll ask Master Seimei about it. He knows what to do in these sorts of situations. Anyway, moving on. I really need to get this homework done. I sighed as I took out my maths book. This is gonna be a long night.
Yami: Yay I'm forgiven *Hugs Yugi again*
Yugi: Hey we're not friends yet
Yami: I don't care *Holds Yugi tighter and runs off*
Orange: Hey come back! I still need you for the story.
Yami: Ha ha Yugi is mine now *Shouted from the distance*
Orange: *Sweat drop* Boys! Anyway please review!
