Soak up the Sun
Chapter Fourteen
Candles flickered through darkness, slowly lightening the objects with their mighty glow.
Two figures sat profoundly within mentioned darkness, gazing solemnly at a set of flickering flames of a fire place.
Their faces outlined within the light, half shadowed from the deep contours of the room's apparent darkness.
Arms draped lazily onto a set of antique arm rests. Fingertips playing fondly with a glass held in their left hands. A burgundy liquid swished thoughtfully within a large glass goblet.
Currently one of the two occupants averted their gaze from fire, focusing onto the pleasant pattering rain upon the window pane.
Crimson eyes flickered with a lifeless spark, almost completely void of any emotion.
He was caught up within his conversation from only moments earlier. His mouth stood agape, slowly falling to the point of his jawline as realization struck.
He had finally revealed his past.
The man's eyes left that of the window, meeting the vision of his goblet.
Lazily he pulled it towards his lips, drinking the red concoction with ease.
A groan erupted into the scene, awaking him into the world of reality.
Cobalt eyes watched from the adjacent chair, narrowing deeply into those of crimson.
Both locked onto one another, never losing concentration a s the older of the two spoke.
“Atemu why are you here?” he questioned.
The other man sighed swishing the contents of his goblet.
“I told him. I told him of my past.”
The older teen's eyes widened in surprise
“You actually trusted Yugi enough to tell him of that horrific night?”
Atemu took a long swig of his wine, dispelling the glass onto the large oak coffee table.
“I know. It surprised me deeply. I haven't felt this surprised since i killed Yami.”
Seto nodded in understanding, gazing at his cousin.
“Well your psychiatrist told us that it would be possible.”
“I know Seto. But i am afraid. I am afraid to open up my heart to Yugi.”
The elder cousin set his wine down, now fully turning towards Atemu.
“Little cousin, that is why i have brought you here. You need, no deserve a second chance at finding that special someone as I have.”
Atemu smiled slightly as he crossed his legs.
“I guess you're right. Does this also mean that you proposed to Joey?”
A scarlet blush formed upon Seto's cheeks, soon faulting back into his regal stoic manner.
“Yes i did. We are engaged and plan to marry by the end of the year.”
“Congratulations Kaiba.”
The CEO ran a hand through his auburn hair, rolling his eyes.
“You forgot dear cousin that i know of your tactics.”
“What tactics?” Atemu smirked.
“Your tactics of changing the subject.”
Atemu raised his arms in defeat as he tapped his fingertips onto the arm rest.
“Seto, you know me all too well. But if you have nothing further to say, then i am leaving.”
The crimson eyed teen pulled himself to his feet. Wincing as pain shot up his right leg.
This didn't go unnoticed.
“That leg of yours is still giving you hell isn't it?”
“Yeah somewhat. Especially after all the running i did two weeks ago.” he replied, gently rubbing the sore limb.
“Serves you right for wrecking my beloved Eclipse.”
Atemu glared daggers at the older, smirking in a monotone as he replied.
“I resent that. Besides that thing didn't run properly.”
“It was a 2005. I don't see how it didn't run properly.”
The childish bickering continued until another presence made its self known.
Its body was almost completely covered in shadow, minus a set of honey colored eyes.
The person awoke Kaiba from his child like trance as the said teen's cobalt eyes landed onto those of the incognito form.
“Mutt, what are you doing in here? I though i had told you to wait for me in the bedroom.”
“Mutt” rolled his eyes, walking closer into the candle induced light.
“Sorry Seto, but i got a call from Yuge' and he wanted me to check on you guys.”
Atemu perked upon the mentioning of his aibou's name.
“We're alright Joey. I was just asking your fiancee for some friendly advice on love.”
Joey blinked as he studied his fiancee's cousin.
Yugi isn't exactly like you Yami. He has a past that binds his morals and attitude. It's not a pretty sight when he reveals his hard times. Trust me i know from experience.”
The Egyptian watched with interest, fully enveloping the new set of information.
“Well we will have to see about that. No one takes the worst past award away from me without a fight.”
Joey rolled his honey colored orbs, trailing his way over to Kaiba. His arms draped themselves around his his waist.
“Kaiba, it's late. Come on i think it's time for bed.”
The CEO nodded as he escorted Atemu out of the mansion.
“Atemu, don't look too much into this. Take it slowly and remember that you must follow your heart.”
He shook his cousin's hand as Atemu nodded in response.
“Alright, i will try.” With that he strides out the door, walking towards his, no Kaiba's Mitsubishi Spyder.
Eventually he pulled himself into the sporty vehicle, pumping up the speakers of his stereo as he listened to a rather new song.
“This move is a painting. We'll never find the same thing.”
His eyes glanced onto the digital clock, reading the numbers of two a.m.
He groaned. It was definitely going to be a long day.
Morning came all too early. Rain drops cascaded down the windows. Many raincoat adorned bodies sprinted through the misty shower, apparently trying to find their ways.
One person imp articular stood out. His tricolored hair blew back and fourth. Bangs of goldenrod matted against his face. Yugi was very tired, almost to the point of collapsing.
Only moments earlier had he gone back to the game shop, desperately in the need of a a change of clothes and the return of his painting and Gravitation manga.
His high top tennis shoes sloshed within many puddles, trailing a set of muddy foot prints behind him.
His small hands held onto his blue raincoat, pulling it closer around his small shivering form.
“Why the hell did i have to get myself into this?” he questioned.
Only hours ago had he received a cal on his cell phone. According to Joey, his school had been looking for him.
Only one month remained until his graduation.
His natural morals of school directed him home, where the conflict had taken shape.
Flash Back
Yugi cautiously walked into his once home, door jingling upon his entrance. The bubbling sounds of his grandfather echoed from the store room as he made his way back into the shop.
The small teen visibly panicked as the old man came closer. His instincts told him to hide.
Though fate wasn't on his side today as he was now face to face with Sugoroku.
The old man's face held a warm caring smile that the small teen was accustomed to since his youthful years. His plum colored eyes held a giddy sense of thinking and happiness as he gazed absent simpleminded at the customer of his store.
“Hello and welcome to the Kame Game Shop. How may i help you?”
Yugi stood still in front of his grandfather, watching as the elder man's eyes gazed directly onto him.
The once charismatic smile and the twinkle within his eyes fell into that of a scowl and anger.
“What the hell are you doing here boy?” he growled.
Yugi gulped as he cast his head down at the oh so interesting tiled flooring as he attempted to whisper.
“I, I- I came to get my things.” he stuttered.
Sugoroku continued to stare down his grandson with betrayal and anger.
“Fine. Then get your things and get the hell our of here.”
Amethyst eyes teared up as Yugi marched upstairs, walking into his bedroom.
Instantly he took this moment to gaze around his room, blinking in surprise.
Everything was left just as it was when he had departed. From the books lying around the bed, to the clothes strewn around on the floor. Everything was in order.
That was until he looked a stack of his Gravitation manga, or Yami's in this case.
The said stack of books lay unceremoniously on top of his bed, collecting a thin layer of dust.
But upon closer inspection, he noticed a small note that sat within volume one's cover.
His curiosity took over his next set of actions as he ended up clawing at the book, opening its cover to reveal a note.
Yugi's small petite hands pulled the accustomed piece of ragged paper within his grasp, opening it in a hateful manner.
His eyes widened as they read across the set of steady scrawl of penmanship.
Aibou,
I have noticed since the moment i have met you and since before then that you have always come into the book store i work in. Reading Gravitation but never buying it. So after some thinking and using some of my “connections” and my cousin, i managed to buy you the entire set of the manga that is out to date. Don't worry about volume twelve being missing, i will buy it for you when it is released. Hope you enjoy and it keeps you satisfied until i am able to show you how attractive you are.
With Love
Yami
Yugi gazed at the letter within his hands as a pale red blush formed onto his cherubic cheeks.
A moment longer passed as he heard his grandfather stir by his bedroom door.
His attention fell onto that of his door, only then to see the eyes of his only family member.
Amethyst locked onto hardened plum.
Yugi cast the old man a questioning gaze as he awaited an answer.
Sugoroku sighed as he leaned on the right side of the door frame.
“Why did you go against my wishes Yugi? Why did you go and see that, that man?” he said, almost throwing up upon the mentioning of Yami.
The sixteen year old rolled his eyes, trailing his fingertips through his spiky hair.
“You seriously ask me this? Grandpa you have known me since the day i was born and you know for damn sure that i always chase after my ambition, even if it happens to be male.”
The elder Mutou growled under his breath. “Yugi Mutou, i have raised you since the day that your parents left you with me, and you know how i feel about same sex relationships.”
The smaller of the two blinked. “Grandpa, don't even throw my past into this. You know how it will only cause you and I more pain than needed. Besides you shouldn't shun me away, i am my own person and am still your grandson no matter if i am gay.”
Grandpa Mutou gazed at his grandson with shocked eyes and anger.
“Young man, don't ever talk back to me like that. Yugi you need to drop this little phase of yours before i kick you out of this house.”
Yugi absorbed the back stabbing comment as he narrowed his innocent eyes.
His grandfather had crossed the line. He had interfered with what little chance he had with his friend Yami.
“Fine, i guess i will be packing up my things. Have a great life old man.”
With that said, Yugi gathered a few of his prized possessions which included his manga, his sennen puzzle, and last but not least, his art supplies.
He pulled out a stack of clean clothing, throwing it into a bag as he grabbed the last of his possessions, walking down the stairs.
Sugoroku watched with cold eyes as his grandson walked down the stairs, never speaking as he watched Yugi pull out his car keys.
“You aren't taking that car, Yugi”
Amethyst eyes landed onto plum.
“Damn straight. I'm taking my Neon, i bought it with my own savings, not you!”
The old man grunted in anger as he stalked off.
Yugi only rolled his eyes, walking outside as he Unlocked his Neon, throwing his things into the backseat as he started up the car.
“Well that was that. See you in hell Grandpa.”
The small teen pulled out of driveway. Now heading towards Domino High.
End of Flash Back
After a few moments, Yugi exited the car, stepping onto the campus of his school, sighing in relief.
He walked slowly up the stairs that led to the interior of Domino High.
Eyes of many watched him pass through the barricades of the school's hallways. Whispers and murmurs echoed through the air.
He didn't care. All he wanted was to get through the last few weeks without worry.
The final bell rang as he spotted a familiar mop of blond hair.
He smiled as he called out to his long time friend.
“Hey Joey!”
Said blonder blinked, looking over into the distance as he grinned vividly. He caught sight of his little buddy.
He managed to push himself through the crowds of students, meeting the eye of innocence.
“Yuge' there you are! I was worried about ya man.” he pulled the smaller into a hug as he smiled.
“Sorry about that Joey, but i just moved out of the game shop. My grandpa didn't take my new found interest in Yami so well.”
The blonder frowned as he ruffled Yugi's hair affectionately.
“Did i hear someone mention my name?”
Yugi turned around, only to meet the eyes of crimson.
“Yami?! What the hell?”
The leather clad teen smirked as he gazed down at his aibou.
“Long time no see my aibou.”
