Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Coming Together ❯ Healing and Problems ( Chapter 13 )

Yugi was able to spend the whole three days with Yami in the hospital. He only removed himself from Yami to go tend to personal needs or help Yami get to the bathroom and then back to the bed. The nurses found him adorable whenever they found him asleep on Yami with their arms wrapped around each other and the doctors all trusted Yugi easily with the air of innocence surrounding him.

It was on the third day that Yami had been in the hospital that Dr. Hakase walked in to see Yami petting a once again sleeping Yugi's hair. He smiled at the tender moment and walked quietly up to the bed so he wouldn't wake the teen and waited patiently for Yami to notice him.

Crimson eyes turned to look at Hakase as Yami continued to play with his sleeping lover's hair. He nodded a hello and waited for him to speak.

"Hello, Yami. Are you feeling today?" Yami nodded once again. "Yes, well, I'll make this quick so I don't disturb little Yugi. We've been monitoring your health and vital signs and everything checks out. I've already called and notified Mr. Bakura and Ishtar and they'll be arriving shortly to pick you up so you can go home today." He waved goodbye and left silently.

A small smile curved on Yugi's lips and he hugged Yami slightly tighter and violet eyes opened sleepily to look at him, happiness filling them along with relief. Yami only nodded at the doctor with a smile and turned to Yugi.

"Good afternoon, tired one. Did we wake you?"

Yugi shook his head sleepily. "No, I was about to wake up anyways and I'm glad I did. That's the best news I could ever hear right now."

"What about if I said I love you very much and with all my heart and I'm never going to let you go ever again."

Yugi's smile widened and he laughed. Leaning down he captured Yami's lips in a passionate but short kiss before pulled back and placing a light kiss on Yami cheek. "I changed my mind about what I said earlier. That's the best news I could ever hear. I love you with everything I have too, Yami."

"Can I wake up to this everyday, Yugi?" Yami asked, cocking his head slightly on the pillow.

Yugi looked down at Yami as he stretched out his kinks. "What do you mean, Yami?"

"To you?" He smiled.

Yugi kissed Yami once more and nodded happily at him once more. "I'll give you whatever I can to please you."

"As long as you're okay with it."

Yugi nodded.

`That's it, you two lovebirds. Be as happy as you can now because soon you won't ever have the chance.' A blackened figure smirked evilly. `I'll still be able to ruin you both even if I am sealed away.'

The figure walked over to his globe and laughed. He moved the picture so it was focused solely on Yami and his laugh quickly turned to a scowl. `You'll see, Pharaoh, that it isn't so easy to get rid of me when I want something as much as I want Yugi. I'll destroy you and I won't have to lift a finger because you'll do it all yourself.'

A knock on the door brought the couple back to reality. Malik, Marik, and the rest of their friends walked in.

"Hey, Yami, how ya feeling?" Marik asked, pulling Yugi away from his perch, a whimper could be heard from the teen at his disapproval of the movement.

Bakura walked up and wrapped his arms around Yugi to keep him from walking back over to Yami and settling back down. Yugi whimpered again as he felt the warmth of Yami's body leaving him once more. `This isn't fair.' He thought.

He looked up and saw Yami looking at him, a laugh drowning in his eyes. `Did he hear me?' He watched as Yami smiled at him and nodded slightly so only Yugi saw. Yugi smiled back at him and settled down as he felt Yami's warmth return to him through the link.

Yami swung his legs over the bed as he pushed back the covers and stood up. He walked over to Yugi and kissed him on the head before taking the bag Ryou offered him and stepped into the bathroom to dress in his clothes.

/Yami, do you need help?/ Yugi asked innocently, not realizing the double meaning of his question.

Laughter flooded through the link and it was then Yugi blushed. /Not like that! Really, Yami, do you need help? Your wrist and you aren't really that stable from not really eating anything for a while./

//No, but thank you, Yugi. I'm doing fine and I'll be out in a minute.//

True to his word, Yami came out with the bag in his hand and the folded hospital clothes in his other hand.

`Just a little more time and you're all mine once more, little Yugi. All mine for the rest of eternity, that I will make sure of.' The shadowed figure laughed once more as he continued to watch the crystal the image was showing Yugi, Yami, and the rest of their friends walking out of the hospital and back to the game shop while laughing and joking around.

`If it wasn't for that baka Pharaoh then Yugi would still behind mine. But that won't be so for very long so enjoy it while you can. I'll make sure you do the most unforgivable thing to Yugi that he'll never want to hear your name come to his precious ears again. And whose going to be there to take him away from the madness? Me of course.'

"It's great to be back home, love." Yami smiled as he sat down on the bed.

Yugi sat down next to him and cuddled against his chest. "And it's great to have you back home too. I was so lonely and didn't have anybody here to make it better."

Yami kissed him on the forehead. "But what will your grandfather say when he comes home? He's due back the day after tomorrow I believe."

Yugi smiled and kissed his lover on the nose. "That's the good news. While you were at the hospital he called and told me that he couldn't make it because of a really bad sand storm that he's trapped in the middle of and it's not said to die down so it's safe enough to leave until next week. So we have a whole other week to figure out what to tell him."

"That's good but we aren't going to put it off are we?"

"Of course not, we'll figure it out after I get something eat. You hungry?" Yugi asked innocently from the door.

Yami shook his head and smiled as Yugi disappeared out the door. He lay back down on the bed and closed his eyes, happy to have Yugi back to him.

`So vulnerable and without my little Yugi anywhere I'll be able to easily do what I need to. This is almost too easy.'

Hands rose over the orb showing Yami lying on the bed peacefully. A blue aura rose over the hands and flowed into the globe heavily.

Yami's eyes clenched together in discomfort as he lay on the bed. All of a sudden a headache washed over him like somebody was hitting him repeatedly with a sledgehammer over the head.

He jumped off the bed as he felt a cold chill drown his mind as he tried to shake it away.

"Yugi…help…" was all Yami got out before he collapsed to the ground in pain.

When he opened his eyes again he was in his soul room.

`How'd I get in here?' He focused on getting out but he couldn't. He was being forced to stay inside by something he couldn't even see. "What's going on?" He asked aloud, not expecting an answer.

-You'll soon see, Pharaoh - a voice laughed through his mind.

"Whose there?" He demanded.

-Don't you know? Or have you forgotten me already? I'll have Yugi and there's nothing you can do to stop me now that I'm in control of your body. I'll have to thank you though for getting Yugi into such a secluded place.- The voice laughed.

"Shidosha! Leave Yugi alone, you've put him through enough!" Yami ordered, though his words fell on deaf ears.

Shidosha moved his hands over the orb, now watching Yami's body still lying in Yugi's bedroom. He removed some of his own energy and spirit with his shadow powers and placed it within the lifeless corpse and willed it to move.

The body stood up and looked around the bedroom before standing up. He looked towards the door as Yugi walked in smiling.

"So, Yami, what do you want to do now? We could do whatever now that we have another week to ourselves. Oh! How about the movies? There's supposed to be a cool anime movie showing and it's the first Duel Monsters movie they've come out with. Joey said it was great and there's even a preview of another one coming out next year too!" Yugi rushed out excitedly.

"I have a better idea." Yami's body smirked, controlled by Shidosha from the Shadow Realm.

"No! Yugi run! Get away! Shidosha stop this! He's too innocent for this!" Yami screamed repeatedly as he watched what was happening.

He didn't want to watch but he couldn't pull his eyes from the screen. A few tears escaped his eyes as he thought of what Shidosha had planned for Yugi, his Yugi.

"Yugi will never forgive me for this. This is the most unforgivable thing that could ever be done and I'm not even going to be the one to do it." Yami whispered, letting the tears slide down. "Please Yugi, please get out of there. I don't want you to get hurt."

"What's your idea, Yami?" Yugi asked innocently.

Yami circled him hungrily but Yugi was too oblivious to it since he thought Yami was just playing around. He wrapped his arms around Yugi's waist and pulled him harshly against him.

"Ow," Yugi flinched slightly. "Yami that hurt. And could you loosen up a bit, I can barely breathe."

The hold to lighten and Yugi looked worriedly back at Yami. "Yami?" `Something's wrong. Yami never has that look in his eyes whatever that look is. Whatever it is, it's creeping me out.' Yugi shivered as he tore his gaze away from Yami's so he wouldn't have to look.

"My idea is unforgettable. Do you want to know what it is?" Yami whispered into Yugi's ear, kissing it when he was done.

"N-not really, no." Yugi squeaked, jumping at the bites that started on his earlobe. "Yami, don't. That hurts."

Yami turned his attentions to Yugi's neck inside and began biting at it, lightly at first, but each nibble became a little harsher than the last.

Yugi began to struggle from the grasp. "Yami, what's wrong with you. You said at the hospital that…"

The young teen was cut off as his boyfriend's lips pressed tightly against his. Since he didn't have much air in his lungs from the tight hold Yami had around him it wasn't long before Yugi was struggling to get air into his lungs once more.

It seemed right before he thought he would pass out from no air Yami pulled back and an evil glint shown in his eyes.

"Forget what I said, little Yugi. It was all a lie to get you alone. And now you have nowhere to go. You're stuck in a corner and you're trapped."

"Y-yami, this isn't like you, what's wrong?" Yugi asked, regaining his breath at last. `This isn't right. Yami was much weaker than he's acting like now. I know he was weak because I could feel it through our link. His side isn't even open and he's never done that before.' Yugi thought worriedly.

"Nothing's wrong, little love. I just feel like having fun so we're going to play a game. I call it cat and mouse. I'm the cat and you're the mouse. I've caught the mouse so now I'm going to tear it apart while playing with it."

Yugi's eyes widened in fear as he tried pulling away from Yami. "Yami? Nom stop it! You're scaring me!"

"Then I'm doing exactly what a cat would to a mouse." Yami smirked and claimed Yugi's lips with his own in a forced kiss.

Yugi continued to struggle but was quickly and easily losing energy from the lack of sleep and food he's been taking in.

"No." Yami whispered, tears now spilling from his eyes as he watched the fear bounce around in the beautiful violet orbs he fell in love with. "Yugi, please forgive me."

Wow, I'm really cruel. But I was running out of ideas. I'm sure there would only be two chappies left but thanks to one of my best friends, Riku, he gave me this idea. Thankies Riku! So Shidosha isn't really gone and he might get what he wanted from the start. What's going to happen to poor Yugi and Yami now?
