~Chapter 7

"Hi Yami!" Yugi said cheerily as he dropped his backpack next to the entrance. Yami looked up and smiled at the little Hikari. "Hello." Yugi came over to the window seat and sat down next to Yami. He rested his head on his shoulder and looked at the book. "What ch'ya readin'?" Yami tensed at the contact...

It felt like years since this moment came to pass. When truly it had only been a couple hours since the former pharoh had taken his beautiful hikari's innocence.

Realization was dealing a harsh blow to Yami's mind. Lust forgotten he had retreated to the corner of the small bedroom, in hopes of escaping the blood soaked sheets and horrible memories that accompnied them. But despite his efforts, the images of what he had done played over and over in his mind.

He had destroyed the only thing he'd ever truly loved. He had taken away Yugi's purity and taken advantage of his trust. He would never be the same again and it was his fault.

After what he had done...he didn't deserve to live...

Jounouchi watched was Yugi shivered violently in his sleep, despite the many blanckets covering him.

He had brought the injured boy back to his place to wait for an ambulence. There was no way he was gonna let Yugi spend another second in the house with that monster.

Jounouchi looked over from his post, next to the couch the smaller boy was occupying. It was disturbing how frail he looked in Jounouchi's oversized cloths. Bruises seemed to litter every visible part of the battered boy.

*You're gonna pay for this* he thught, angrily.

//Stole all that you gave me//

//The peace is dead in my soul//

//I have blamed the reason for//

//My intentions poor//

//Yes I'm the one who//

//The only one who//

//Would carry on this far//

Yami sauntered through the house, not sure what he was looking for. As he stumbled into the kitchen, he saw what he had been seeking.

Jounouchi jumped as soon as he heard the sounds of the ambulence in the distance. *Took 'em long enough!* He quickly ran to Yugi and attempted to gently nudge him awake.

"Common Yug', we're goin' to the hospital now." The smaller boy only answered with a whimper. *Meh, no need to wake him, I guess* He turned to go wait by the door, but before he could make much progress Yugi stirred from his sleep and began mumbling something.

"What is it Yug'?" Jounouchi questioned.

Responding to his nickname, Yugi looked up at the blond and whispered "Yami's in trouble."

Jounouchi was could only stare in shock. "WHY THE FUCK DO YOU CARE!? LOOK WHAT HE DID!" He instantly regretted his words, though they seemed to be lost to the smaller boy. The smaller boy's blank stare didn't even register a slight reaction.

Suddenly, the sound of the paramedics exiting their vehicle outside the house brought Jounouchi back to the task at hand. "Common Yug', let's go," he said, calming down. Reluctantly Yugi agreed, and with the taller boy's help, was lead towards the ambulance.

The only thing going through Yugi's mind was that Yami was in trouble, and instinctivly he had to help him! Jounouchi's and the rest of the world seemed unreal. Nothing exisisted, not even himself. Only his need to save Yami was real...

It came so unexpectedly, Jounouchi was left stunned for a moment as Yugi tore his arm from the taller boy's grasp, and ran with renewed energy towards the game shop...and Yami.
