Chapter Two

 

 

Hours had passed and Yami was standing at the window, the sun was disappearing in the horizon and the snow falling in big white fluffy flakes. He noticed all of the Christmas lights coming alive, even the sixty foot Christmas tree in front of the building was lit up in dazzling white and blue lights with a magnificent gold, white and blue star on the top.

 

He sighed and turned around to lean on the glass as he ran a hand through his tri-colored hair and closed his eyes.

 

`Why do I feel this way, I feel so lonely. I mean I should be happy I have friends, and am alive again after 3,000 years, but something is missing.' Yami sighed as he slid down and sat on the floor with his knees drawn up and chin resting atop them.

 

`Maybe I'm not used to being alone since I was always with my hikari for the last five years when I was a spirit. I haven't been alone since I was released from my puzzle after three millennia.' Yami sighed again as he looked up at the ceiling.

 

`It seems that nobody needs me now since there isn't anybody trying to steal the millennium items or trying to take over the world.' Yami was now looking at the dark blue carpet lining his office and finding all the different patterns and shapes interesting.

 

`Maybe I'm thinking way to into this, I mean its going to take a while to get used to having my own body again and not sharing one. Besides Aibou needs me and I know he loves me, as an older brother anyway.'

 

Yami stood and walked of to his desk and picked up a picture that was taken not to long after he got his own body.

 

On the far left was Honda with a goofy smile on his face wearing his brown leather jacket, white shirt and dark jeans. Next to him was Anzu making a peace sign, wearing a black sleeveless shirt with her red very short skirt. Then Jou smiling and blonde hair messy as always wearing his blue jean jacket and white shirt and torn jeans that were a shade darker than his jacket.

 

Next to Jou was me wearing a crimson sleeveless shirt my trademark black leather pants, two belts and many arm bands and of course my black choker around my neck. Jou had his left arm draped over my shoulder and next to me hugging me around the waist was my hikari. We almost looked exactly alike but instead he wore a dark blue sleeveless shirt but we both had arm bands, two belts and chokers on. We all looked so happy especially Yugi his big amethyst eyes sparkling as we all smiled after having a wonderful day.

 

We spent the whole day just hanging out going from one place to another. First was the mall then the pizza parlor and to finish it all off we went to the arcade and of course I beat everyone at all the games even the ones I have never played before.

 

Mokuba, Kaiba's younger brother was with us and wanted to get a group picture and after he had it developed gave me one of the copies with a silver frame that said `Friends Forever'.

 

Yami took one more look at the picture and sat it back down on his desk grabbing his black trench coat and putting it on he reached for his briefcase and headed out of his office and toward the elevators at the end of the hall.

 

Yami stood in the elevator wishing he knew what this feeling of longing and loneliness meant. The elevator stopped and Yami noticed someone else's presence as he continued his musings not paying the new comer any attention. He felt the person staring at him but never looked up to even take notice. Then all of a sudden the person beside him cleared his throat as to make him self known.

 

Yami looked up and crimson met sapphire.

 

“Hello Kaiba.” Yami stated with a low barely audible sound.

 

“Yami.” Kaiba said as he kept staring intently at his ex-rival.

 

Seto noticed Yami was staring hard at the floor and never really taking any notice he was there, other than the brief greeting. He noticed that Yami's fiery crimson eyes were not their usual bright, piercing color, but darker and distant.

 

`Is that sadness I'm seeing in his eyes or is it just my imagination' Seto continued to think to himself as he noticed that Yami was a little slumped over instead of the confident stance he usually holds.

 

Seto looked away and pretended to stare at his watch.

 

The rest of the elevator ride went by without a word said between the two. As the doors opened, Yami stepped out and started a brisk walk to the entrance doors. Wrapping his scarf tighter around his neck he stepped out into the cold. Snow still coming down only harder than it was just a few moments ago. He walked trying to keep his balance in the deep snow.

 

“Ahhhh!” Yami screamed as he lost his footing and took a face dive into the snow. Lifting himself up with his arms he was mumbling a few curses in Egyptian. He looked around, sighed and leaned back to sit on the snow drift. He raised his glove covered hands up and lowered his face into them.

 

Seto saw the whole ordeal with Yami, laughing as his former rival fell face first into the snow. He saw Yami raise up face and hair covered in the fluffy white snow and laughed even harder.

 

He abruptly stopped though when Yami sat back and put his head in his hands. Seto, more gracefully than Yami made his way over and knelt before the former pharaoh and put a hand on his shoulder.

 

Yami looked up and noticed Kaiba beside him with a worried look on his handsome features.

 

`Wait did I just think Kaiba was handsome. Oh Ra I know I'm losing it now.' He then again put his head in his hands not only to clear his thoughts but so Kaiba wouldn't see the blush now creeping over his face.

 

“Yami are you feeling alright? Is there anything wrong?” Kaiba asked as he mentally asked himself questions. `Wait why am I acting so concerned. Could I be developing feelings for him?' He looked at Yami who still had his hands covering his face. Kaiba removed his hand from Yami's shoulder, but continued to kneel beside him. Sapphire eyed filled with worry and he finally decided to speak again since Yami was not being his talkative self.

 

“Do you want a ride home?” Seto asked as he regained his composure.

 

“No.”

 

“Come on its cold and the snow is coming down really hard.”

 

“No.”

 

“Yami quit being so damn stubborn!” Seto yelled finally losing his cool and stood crossing his arms and staring down at Yami.

 

Yami looked up his crimson eyes filling with tears as he addressed the CEO. “Kaiba just go and leave me alone.” Yami stood up and started walking away leaving a stunned CEO behind him.

 

`Wait was Yami crying?' Seto turned and watch as Yami walked out the two huge front gates and toward home.

 

Seto watched as Yami walked out of sight, still confused of the sight of tears threatening to fall down the pharaoh's face.

 

`Maybe he just fell and hit to hard or maybe it is something else entirely.' Seto thought while fumbling the keys out of his pocket. He made his way to his black Mercedes sighing as he reached for the door, opening it and slid into the seat. He sighed once more and started to head for home the thoughts of Yami never leaving his mind.
