Breaking Point

(This takes place right after the dinner. && Brendon = Tea's brother…*you'll see*)

After dinner, Tea lead them up to her room.

"Yugi, I am so sorry about my dad. Hes so insensitive, he had no right to say those things to you. I-"

Yugi looked up with yet again, another smile, this one didn't seem to convince anyone. "Tea, its fine…really, I mean, I was ready for the judgments and critisizm when I told people who I really am. Some people just don't have the tolerance for it, and I've come to terms with that, So…let him believe what he wants, I has no effect on me." Yugi smiled sadly.

"But, it does have an effect on ya Yuge…" all eyes were on Joey now as he began to speak. "Look man, we know you been tryin'a hide your emotions behind'em smiles. Were ya friends, we can see t'ough (accented through) them masks. Don't go 'round thinkin your foolin' us….we know it bothers ya."

Yugi was wide eyed at Joey's words, small, unshead tears were threatening to fall from Yugi's eye as he turned his head away, Tea had tears streaming from her eyes, "Yugi, we don't want you to go through these tortures alone…or at all for that matter…" Tea never got to finish as Tristan cut in, "Yeah man, we just want you to know that we ment what we said, 'Were friends till the end, no matter what', and that incluses sexuality."

Yugi looked back up, succssesfully blinking the tears back, "Thanks you guys, so much…that's just what I needed.."

Suddenly Tea's door opened as Tea's mom poked her head in. "Tea dear, were going to watch a movie if you all wanna join us…" they all looked at eachother and shugged a nod. Tea's mom smiled, "Great! And since its getting late, you may all stay here for the night if you like. You can wear some of the clothes Brendon left here before he left for college."

"Thanks Mrs. Gardner!" the three boys said in unison. She smiled, "Of course boys!" and with that she left the room.

After raiding Tea's brother's room for something suitable to their liking, the three of them went to the living room and watched the movie. Eric looked over the three boys as they entered the room. His eyes settled on Yugi as he looked him over…carefully. Yugi wore Brendon's grey sweat pants and a tee-shirt that said "Domino High Football 2010" on it. He sat with his friends, smiling and laughing till he heard Mr. Gardner say, "Shouldn't you be wearing Tea's clothes?"

Everyone was getting annoyed with Eric's behavior, "Daddy!" Tea yelled astonished that he was being so rude, especially to one of her dearest friends. Yugi looked at him with slightly squinted eyes, "*sigh*…with all due respect sir…I'm gay…I'm not a girl.." Mr. Gardner stood threateningly, towering over Yugi. "How dare you talk that way to me in MY house you fucking 'banana jabber!" Yugi scooted away from him as Stephanie stepped in front of him, "That'll be quite enough of THAT Eric!" Yugi stood quickly, dashing to Tea's room, getting dressed and dashing down the stairs once more as he stood in the door frame, putting his leather choker back on, he said to his friends, "Ill see you guys Monday." Not waitng for an answer, he showed himself out. Outside he perpared himself for the long, dark and lonely walk home. /First im being mocked at school, now..by a grown man? Tch..maybe I should have kept this to myself, then maybe people could live with me, thank God my friends stood by me…/ Yugi looked up and found himself walking through the park, the darkness giving it an eriee look to it.

/Its so hard keep these walls up, I feel like if someone calls me another name, or mocks me…im just going to loose it! But…I cant do that, I have to stay strong and not let them get to me, I cant let my emotional scars show, or ill never be able to mend them…/

He neared his home, feeling more comfortable about letting his tears fall. Looking at his home, he could tell his grandfather was in bed. Taking out a key he unlocked the door, took off his shoes and quietly pranced to his room.

Once there, he threw himself on his bed and began to cry and the mocking voices of hia peers swarmed his head, 'Faggot! – Yu-Gay Homo – Banana Jabber…' Yugi cried the tears that so badly needed to fall.

*E.O.C*
