Chapter 14
The first thing Yugi noticed when he woke up was that he was freezing. He sat up in bed shivering and glanced at Yami who was out cold. Yugi chuckled as he made his way off the bed to check on his daughter. As he went into her room he looked out the window in her room and noticed it was snowing. He groaned. No wonder I'm so damn cold. He walked back into the bedroom and glanced at the clock. It was 8:30. Yami needed to get up and get ready and Takara was going to be waking up soon. Yugi put on a pair of jeans and walked over to the bed and shook his boyfriend.
"Yami, time to get up."
Yami groaned but made no movement. Yugi sighed and shook him harder.
"C'mon, Yami, you need to get up."
"Fine, I'm up. Jeez!"
"Yami, whassa matter? I'd figured you'd be happy to graduate."
"It's the freaking winter time? Who wants to graduate in the winter?"
"At least it'll be pretty. It's snowing outside."
"Terrific."
"Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning," Yugi chuckled as he went to grab Takara who had started to cry.
Yugi headed into her nursery and saw her flailing her arms. He picked her up and kissed her on the forehead.
"What's wrong, sweetie, are you in a bad mood today, also?"
Takara's cries came out is small bursts like she was trying to stop. Yugi bounced her up and down and headed out of the nursery.
"Let's go see daddy. Maybe you can cheer him up," Yugi said walking into the bedroom.
"Hey, Taki. How's daddy's girl this morning?" Yami asked holding out his arms.
Takara giggled as Yugi handed his daughter to his boyfriend.
"I'm gonna go take a shower while you entertain her."
Yami nodded as Yugi grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom.
Yugi and Takara took their seats in the auditorium waiting for the graduation ceremony to begin.
"Yugi!"
Yugi turned and saw Riena coming his way with Yori in tow. He waved. They took seats next to him.
"How are you, Yugi?"
"Fine, Riena thanks."
Riena tickled Takara's belly making the girl laugh, "So I hear there's supposed to be some sort of after party. Are you going?"
"Knowing Ryou, Bakura, and Yami? Most likely."
Riena nodded as they started the speeches. Yugi didn't realize how long and boring these speeches were. He had to leave the auditorium twice in order to feed and change Takara. Takara was getting restless and they hadn't even gotten to Yami's name yet. He gave Takara a toy to play with while they were sitting and she happily played with that. Yugi was glad because he had started to run out of options in order to keep her busy. By the time Yami's name was called Takara had started to doze off but woke up quickly crying when Yami's mother screamed and whooped. He picked his daughter up and ran out of the auditorium again before anyone could complain.
He walked around outside rocking Takara until she fell asleep. He sighed and walked back in the auditorium and sat back down. After the rest of the names were called, a few people ending up giving closing remarks that seemed to last forever. Yugi groaned. He just wanted to get outta there. Once everything was finished, Yugi took Takara and went with Riena and Yori to wait for Yami and the others. He smiled when he saw Yami come out with his cap and gown.
"Hey, baby," Yami said kissing him on the lips.
"Congratulations, guys," Yugi said grinning.
Yami's mother wanted to get a picture of the three graduates and everyone ended up taking tons of pictures, waking Takara up in the process.
"Baby, you okay?"
Yugi nodded, "Yeah, just tired. I need to go home and put Takara down for her nap. She really didn't get a good one here."
"Aw, come on, Yugi. Come to the party with us," Bakura said.
"I'd love too, Bakura, but I'm tired and so is Takara."
"Yugi, I don't mind watching Takara for a few hours while you hang out with them," Riena suggested.
Yugi looked at Yami who nodded. Yugi sighed and handed Takara to Riena, "Fine."
"Good, you boys have fun, don't drink too much and I'll see you at home soon," Riena said walking away with Takara in her arms and her husband in tow.
"Let's go party!" Bakura laughed. Ryou just shook his head.
"Hey, that's your boyfriend," Yugi teased.
"I know."
"Um, are you guys sure this is a good idea?"
"Why, babe, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just that I'm not a college student or graduate or anything. I mean, I'm still in high school."
Yami chuckled, "Don't worry about it baby. I won't let you get drunk or anything, besides, no one's gonna care."
"Okay."
Yami parked the car at one of his former classmates' house and the four piled out of the car. They made their way through the throngs of people, gave their greetings, and started to hang out. Bakura immediately went for the beer even though Ryou tried to get him not to. Yugi looked around like he was outta place til Yami grabbed his hand.
"Let's dance."
"What? Yami, you know I can't dance."
"Actually, baby, you can dance. You just don't want people to know it," Yami said pulling Yugi in the middle of the living room floor.
Yami guided their movements and Yugi went along until he saw someone staring at him.
"Yami, people are staring."
"Let 'em. Just keep dancing with me."
Yugi sighed and kept dancing. He had to admit, it was kinda nice until Yami stopped.
"Sorry, babe, but nature calls."
Yugi giggled and waved Yami away who was running toward the bathroom.
When Yami returned from the bathroom Yugi was nowhere in sight. He was confused; he knew Yugi didn't come to the bathroom. Yami saw Ryou and Bakura and walked over to them.
"Have either of you seen Yugi?"
"Yeeeaahh! He was ober, ober," Bakura giggled. "He's right here," Bakura giggled again.
Ryou sighed and shook his head at his drunken boyfriend and then looked at Yami, "No. The last I saw him he was dancing with you."
"Thanks, Ryou."
Yami walked outside and walked around calling Yugi's name. He didn't get an answer. He walked back inside and bumped into Fredrick.
"Freddie, have you seen the boy I was dancing with earlier? He looks a lot like me only shorter and lighter."
"Um, maybe. I saw some kids heading upstairs earlier and one of them looked like you."
"Thanks man."
Freddie nodded and Yami took off up the stairs. He checked every room until he came to the last one at the end of the hall. He opened the door and what he saw made his blood run cold. Yugi was naked, tied to the bed, and knocked out. He was bruised slightly in his waist area, like when someone kicks you. But what made him angry wasn't the sight of his lover. It was what he saw on the bed. Blood. Yugi had been raped. He walked over to his boyfriend and looked at him. He tried opening his eyes and noticed they were bloodshot either from crying or from being drugged. Probablyfromboth.Howcomenooneheardhim?
"Baby. Baby, wake up."
Yami went around and untied the ropes that held Yugi down just as Yugi moaned, "Yami? Yami, Yami!"
Yami rushed to his side, "Shh, baby, I'm here. Easy, breathe, baby. I'm right here. C'mon, I'ma take you home."
Yami picked up Yugi and ran downstairs and found Ryou and Bakura getting into a heated argument. He tapped Ryou on the shoulder.
"We're leaving," he said and walked out the front door.
Ryou stared after him a few minutes and grabbed his drunken boyfriend by the arm and dragged him outside. Yami was putting Yugi into the car. Yugi whimpered.
"I know, baby. I'm sorry."
"Yami, what happened?"
Yami looked up, "Stay with him," he said and walked back into the house.
It didn't take long for Yami to find the boys who attacked Yugi. They were in the backyard laughing about it. He walked outside and grabbed the first guy he could and punched him in the face.
"Yo, man! What's the matter with you?"
"Me? What's wrong with me? What the fuck is wrong with you guys? Attacking Yugi like that."
"His name is Yugi? Well, Yugi was begging to get fucked man. I mean what was he thinking, coming here like that? Why is it any of your business anyway?"
Yami grabbed the man and got in his face, "That boy is my boyfriend. And be lucky I don't kill all of you right now. But if I find out you so as much come near him and I will fucking carve your dicks off and feed them to each other."
Yami stalked off and headed to the car. Yugi was crying and whimpering and Ryou was trying to figure out what happened. Bakura was so drunk he didn't care. Yami kept a hand on Yugi's thigh as he drove Ryou and Bakura home. After dropping his friends off, he headed home. It wasn't long before he parked the car in front of the house and carried Yugi in the house. Riena noticed this and was about to ask when Yami shook his head. He took Yugi to the bathroom and sat him on the toilet seat where he whined.
"Shh, baby, I'm right here. I'm just gonna get you in the tub."
"Sorry," Yugi whimpered.
Yami stopped what he was doing and kneeled in front of him, "For what, baby?"
"So stupid."
Yami sighed, "Babe, stop. It's not your fault," he returned to filling the tub. "C'mon, let's get you in the tub."
Yami helped Yugi strip down and sit in the tub. Yugi winced at the heat on his ass. After making sure that Yugi was situated, Yami stood up.
"I'll be right back, babe. I'm gonna get you some clothes."
He walked to the bedroom and grabbed a pair of pants and a t-shirt along with some boxers and started to head back into the bathroom when his mother stopped him.
"Yami, is Yugi alright?"
"Not now, Mom."
"Yami! What happened to him?"
"Mom, I love you but please move out of my way. I'll explain later."
Riena sighed and moved out of Yami's path. Yami headed back into the bathroom and shut the door behind him.
"I'm back baby, you okay?"
Yugi nodded. Yami picked up the washcloth and began to wash his boyfriend. Yugi hissed and whimpered when he reached the sensitive areas.
"I'm sorry baby."
After several minutes Yami helped Yugi out of the tub and dried him off and allowed him to get himself dressed and told him to lie down in the bed.
"I'm gonna let my mother go home and check on Takara. You go lay down, babe, and I'll be in in a minute."
Yugi nodded and kissed Yami on the lips before heading to the bedroom. Yami found his mother sitting on the couch.
"Taki's sleep?"
"Yeah. She fell asleep half an hour ago."
"Okay, thanks. I guess you can go home, now."
"Not until you tell me what happened."
"Why? It's none of your business."
"Yami, I know it's not, but I'd like to know what happened to that poor boy."
Yami sighed, "Yugi was raped."
"WHAT?"
"Mom, shut up! God."
"I'm sorry. Yami, how could you let that happen to him?"
"This is my fault? I left him for one minute to use the bathroom. When I came out he was gone. How was I supposed to know this was gonna happen?"
"You took an underage boy to a party. Obviously you knew something like this was gonna happen."
"No I didn't. I knew there was gonna be a lot of drinking but I kept him away from that. I didn't know someone would drug him and rape him. I can't believe you'd actually believe that I would let this happen to him."
Riena stood up, "You're right, Yami. I know you have more sense than that, I'm sorry. I'm gonna go and you get back to your boyfriend."
Yami walked his mother to the door and after locking it behind her he walked down to the nursery to check on Takara. He smiled at her and kissed her forehead and headed to the bedroom where he found Yugi sitting up in bed.
"Babe?" He asked coming in the room and undressing.
Yugi looked up at him, "I'm sorry, Yami. I was so stupid."
Yami shucked his jeans and climbed in bed and pulled Yugi close, "What are you talking about? Baby, what happened?"
"I was waiting for you to come out of the bathroom and someone came over to me and started talking to me. He seemed nice and he asked me if you were my boyfriend and I said yes and he asked me how that was and all that. After a while he asked me if I wanted something to drink. I told him as long as it wasn't alcohol, yes. He left and came back with a cup of soda. I thanked him and drank the soda and was wondering where you were. The next thing I remember I was in a room naked and tied to bed. He was there along with two other guys. He was talking about how you shouldn't have brought such young meat here. That's all I remember."
That wasn't all Yugi remembered and Yami knew that. Yami sighed. He didn't wanna push Yugi, but he needed to know.
"Baby?"
"Yes?"
"I need you to tell me everything."
"I did."
"No, baby, you didn't. I need to know everything that happened."
Yugi shook his head, "No."
"Baby…"
"No!" he screamed and started crying.
Yami held Yugi close and rocked him, "I'm sorry, baby. Please tell me."
"Why?"
The phone rang and interrupted Yami from answering Yugi. He reached over with one hand and grabbed the receiver, "Hello?"
"Yami? It's Ryou."
"Oh, hey, how's 'Kura?"
Yami heard Ryou sigh, "He's been worse. Listen, is Yugi alright?What happened earlier tonight?"
"Ryou, I can't right now, okay?"
"Alright, Yami. I understand. I'll talk to you later, okay?"
"Yeah, sure."
Yami hung up the phone and turned back to Yugi, "Baby, please."
Yugi sighed and launched into the whole story of what happened after Yami headed toward the bathroom. Everything he and the guy talked about and the rape. By the time he was finished, Yugi was in tears and Yami was holding in his rage. Yami held Yugi close and kissed him and rocked him.
"Baby, I'm sorry. I never should've left you alone."
"It's not your fault."
Yugi snuggled up into Yami's chest and fell asleep. Yami held him and sighed. Can't this kid catch a fucking break? How are we gonna bounce back from this?
TBC...
Max: Poor Yugi.
Me: I know. Yami's right, he can't catch a fucking break.
Max: I know. I just wanna hug him. Hopefully things will be better next chapter?
Me: Of course. Oh and a side note to my readers, I'm sorry if I am speeding time up too fast for you. If that's the case please tell me and I'll slow it down. This chapter Takara was five months and next chapter I'm thinking about having them celebrate Christmas. Is that slow enough for you? Or if you want me to speed it up let me know.
