Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Lover's Duel ❯ Accident ( Chapter 12 )

Accident

Yami gasped and looked frantically around the bed for the younger. He knew Seto wasn't a threat anymore since he was burning below in the underworld like he was supposed to now. He knew Kyra wouldn't have taken Yugi if she did come in since she saw how Yugi was acting and wouldn't let him go.

Hearing a slight giggle come to his ears he saw Yugi sitting in the Dark Magician's lap, sprawled out playfully with his eyes closed. The sage had a gentle look to his face, unlike the night before when his good friend and master was angered.

The purple clad magician was playing with Yugi's hair as the young one continued to tell the magician his thanks for everything he did the night before.

`Yugi must've not wanted to wake me since I didn't get much sleep and went over to my Dark Magician since he was awake.' Yami stood, silently thanking the purple-clad monster that looked at him when he moved, and kneeled next to the boy and held his hands out.

Yugi hadn't noticed the extra presence beside him, only knew that his hands had been peeled from the other. He opened his eyes, as he felt smaller, but still strong, arms wrap around him gently. He smiled at the sight of Yami and kissed him, needing to know Yami wasn't angry for anything that happened the previous night that hadn't showed before; like him being out after dark.

Yami kissed him back, but sensing something amiss, he dismissed the monster gratefully after separating to breathe.

"What's wrong Yugi? Something's bothering you, I can sense it." Yami asked with concern as he held the other boy to him gently, being careful of the sore tenderness of the other boy's chest.

Tears slid down Yugi's cheek, but not out of sadness, out of happiness that Yami did come for him and wasn't angry over anything he did. He was actually happy and that's why he cried. "I was so scared last night; thank you for coming for me." Yugi mumbled into the taller's chest.

"It's ok to be afraid after what happened, my little Yugi. Seto's gone now and he get you, I promise." Yami soothed the teen.

After calming down, Yugi shook his head gently. "I'm not crying because I was scared though. I was scared because of something else." At the confused look he was given Yugi took a deep breath. "Are you mad at me for being out past dark?"

Yami shook his head. "I could never be angry with you for something you couldn't control."

Yugi nodded his understanding and closed his eyes once more as he breathed in Yami's spice like scent. He always loved that scent.

After a few hours of cuddling together and enjoying the quiet with each other, Yugi's stomach growled and the younger flushed slightly.

Yami laughed and picked Yugi up gently and carried him to the dining hall.

Seeing the two, Malik and Bakura quickly rushed over and bombarded the couple with questions of worry to see if they were all right, hearing from Kyra what had happened and also seeing her with one of the monsters outside the game room.

Yami got annoyed and a minute of the noise and growled loudly at his friends and put Yugi down, pushing him gently behind him, and let his anger show in his eyes at the duo's antics and making Yugi feel uncomfortable with the closeness.

"Do you two mind? Or don't you care about Yugi's well being rather than just acting like a Good Samaritan?"

Bakura and Malik looked away after starting to feel uncomfortable as well, only this was from being under Yami's glares. When Malik glanced up at Yugi hiding behind the Pharaoh shaking as his face hid in the small of the king's back with his arms clinging to one of the ruler's own arms. He gasped as he saw the white of a bandage around Yugi's chest that could be seen from the partially opened silk shirt he was wearing.

Without thinking he pulled Yugi towards him and opened the shirt fully to get a look at how bad it was, scaring the boy completely. He looked up as drops of water dripped on the floor and wiped the tears away before looking back at a furious Yami. "What happened?" He asked in nothing more than a scared whisper.

Yami felt his anger slipping out of his control and resister the urge to hurt Malik for scaring Yugi at how fast his actions were, especially since Yugi had been traumatized and scared nearly to death the night before and being cut deeply with an over sharpened knife nonetheless, that and he didn't want to frighten the boy any further by punishing Malik in front of him.

`Maybe I'll just yell at him later if I get the chance.' He thought.

Instead, he took a deep breath and kneeled next to Yugi, turning the boy to face him slowly, and closed the shirt once more. He stood and Yugi immediately clung onto him. Yami offered his arm to the boy and smiled as the younger took it happily, before his eyes turned to glare at Malik, reminding the sandy-haired blonde man of his rule by mouthing out not to touch Yugi unless he said it was ok.

"I'm sorry Yugi." He apologized quietly. "I had no intentions of hurting or scaring you; really I didn't." He quietly whispered after bowing his head in shame.

Yugi, seeing this, wiped his eyes and without releasing his hold on his lover's arm walked in front of Malik and looked at him with his innocent violet eyes. "It's okay, Malik. I was just startled by how fast you moved is all." His voice slightly raspy since it was dry.

Malik smiled and placed his hand gently next to Yugi's cheek, looking at him questionably. In answer, Yugi moved so his cheek rubbed gently against the inviting hand and smiled softly when Malik put only a little more pressure into it. Yugi also wrapped his free hand around Malik's waist the best he could without having to pull on Yami's are that he was still holding onto possessively.

When he felt Bakura kneel down next to him though he boldly let go of Yami and held the white haired boy closer showing he was okay with it. He didn't forget however hat Yami was there and kept that in mind as he paid close attention to if Yami was going to move away or not.

After a few minutes of waiting, he knew Yami wasn't going to move away so he walked closer and settled in Bakura's lap as he continued to enjoy the feel of Malik's soft, warm hand on his cheek as Bakura wrapped a loose arm around his waist to keep him from falling, but also being very mindful of the injuries he now knew were there and keeping his ears open for anything that sounded like pain or discomfort come from the boy he held.

Yami watched carefully with concern as the two of his friends held and touched the boy, also keeping his ears open for anything that sounded negative in any way come from his once pleasure slave and ready to lash out to get him.

Bakura shifted and, as he wasn't holding too tightly to Yugi, the boy fell from his lap and fell on his back onto the cold ground. Yugi cried out at the sudden jerk in his body as he landed on the floor and Yami instantly pushed the two of his friends away and held the boy closer, but not o he was crushing him. Yugi clung to Yami tightly as he cried his pain out.

"Ra, Yugi, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to…" Bakura stopped mid-sentence at the glare Yami was giving him.

"Yami, you know that was accident right? Bakura would never do something like that on purpose." Malik tried to reason, undisturbed by the glare directed at them.

The Pharaoh stood with Yugi in his arms carefully, softening his look as he looked at the angel's pained face. "So maybe I'm being a bit protective when I say this, but I don't want Yugi out of my room until the bandages are removed; no questions asked. I know you didn't mean it, Bakura, but would you do the same if it were Ryou? Or Marik, Malik?" (1)

At the mention of their own lovers, also once slaves for their own hormonal desires, the two looked down on nodded.

"I wouldn't want anything happening to Ryou. I'd die before I let something like that happen."

Yami nodded and looked at Malik, who also nodded.

"Most defiantly. The same goes for me."

"And were going to tell us that anytime soon?" A soft voice came from behind them. Yami smirked at the looks on his friend's face before the two smiled and turned around.

"Of course, Ryou. I tell you this now and it goes on until the end of forever: I will protect you from anything that tries to harm you."

"The same goes for me, Marik."

Yami smirked and started walking away. `Yugi still hasn't met those two considering Malik and Bakura keep them in their rooms most of the time. He probably would've met them though if I let him out at dark instead of being back into my own chambers.' He thought as he left the room.

- Remember towards the beginning of the fic in chappy 2 it mentioned Bakura and Malik were also like Yami when it came to a sexual preference. Ryou and Marik were once their pleasure slaves but became lovers like Yami and Yugi did after a while.

Sorry if it's a bit short. But I promise I'll have the next chappy up really fast though to make up for it. If not then…I don't know but I'm sure I won't need to think of anything becuz I always keep my promises.
