Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Unforgivable ❯ Chapter 7 ( Chapter 7 )

Chapter 7

Yugi cried for three hours straight when the three arrived at the game shop. Yami tried to comfort his aibou but it was no use. Joey gave up at the two hour limit. Three nights after incident at the hospital. Yugi came down the stairs. Not exactly at the best time though.

Tèa sat on a lazy boy chair in a rather short skirt. At least the top she had on was decent.

"Tèa I can't date you," Yami said and turned to face Yugi with a stunned face.

"Hi Yugi!" Tèa chirped, "What have you been up to?" Yugi sent Yami a look of 'we-need-to-talk' and went back up stairs. "That was mean! I said hi and he didn't even say hi back!"

"You should go now," Yami stood up, "You know where the door is. If you don't, I'm sure Joey can show you," with that said he went upstairs.

"Leave," was Joey's last and only word to her.

"Fine!" Tèa left in a huff.

"Yugi?" Yami knocked on the door.

"Come in," Yugi was on his bed, his knees were pulled up to his chest.

"Yugi, what did you want to talk about?" Yami asked.

(A/N: Should I leave it at that? Hmm...NAH! ^ ~)

Yugi nodded his head yes. Yami sat next to the distressed teen. He could see tears threatening to fall.

"It's okay to cry," the darker said and pulled his hikari into a hug.

"S-She...She...She hurt me! It's all my fault!" Yugi sobbed angrily.

"Nani?! No it's not! If she told you that, she's wrong! I didn't like her in the first place. Yugi you did nothing wrong," Yami rubbed circles on Yugi's back.

"Yes it is!" Yugi cried.

"No it's not. She chose to hurt you, you did nothing to deserve that. Nothing! She's going to go to jail for what she did. Now shh..." Yami felt sorry for Yugi having to go through that and couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt for the young teen. Yugi cried into Yami's shirt in short painful sobs.

An hour later Yugi fell asleep in Yami's arms. Yami carefully laid Yugi on the bed and covered him up. It would be a while before Yugi went back to being his old cheerful self...if he ever did.

School was another issue. Yami had informed Yugi's teachers and principal about what happened, but he was careful not to tell them what Yugi did. Only that he was in the hospital and needed to get rest. After cleaning up the shop and doing the dishes he went upstairs. Taking a shower helped him.

Yami sighed and pulled on a pair of blue pajama pants. Deciding to check on the other occupants of house; Yami sat up and left his room.

Yami came to the room Joey was in. Joey was sprawled out over the bed. One foot hung over the bed well drool hung from his mouth.

"Don't eat ma burger Tristan! Dueling monkey eh Kaiba?" his arms threw punches in the air. "Take dat!"

Yami smiled a small smile at Joey's jousts at Seto Kaiba in his sleep. Closing Joey's door Yami headed to Yugi's room.

Yugi's sleep was not as happy. The young teen thrashed around in the covers letting the ocassional moans of pain escape his lips. His eyebrows furrowed. Suddenly Yugi screamed clutching his wrists. His nails dug into the bandage as if trying to rip if off.

Yami rushed to his side and petted the teens hair to try and sooth him. After fifteen minutes of that Yami cupped Yugi's cheeks in the palm of his hands in a caring fashion. Yugi's chalk white face turned peachy and his cheeks gain a rosy colour. He moaned at the touch. Yami carefully stroked Yugi's face. Yugi's dream must have been a good one cause Yugi's cheek turned even more rosy.

Yami, who was pleased that he had made Yugi feel better left for his own room. He was extremely tired and still needed to wake Joey up, and maybe Yugi.

Morning came too soon for Yami. He opened his eyes, greeting the morning sun with a groan. He looked at the alarm clock.

'6 am. Well better get Joey up,' Yami got a shower, dressed and made himself a cup of coffee before even attempting to wake up Joey. Using his better judgement Yami went to Yugi's room first. Looking into Yugi's room he saw that Yugi was already ready. His fingers manuvered over the bandages of his wrists.

"You ok?" Yami asked wrapping his arms around Yugi to comfort him. "What's troubling you?"

"I'm scared. What if I-I-I cut? Or slip? I feel so alone..." Yugi replied.

"You're not alone. You have me, Joey, Tristan, and all of your other friends," Yami turned to face Yugi, "Just remember that. There's always someone here," Yami put a finger on where Yugi's heart would be.

(A/N: Does that sound to corny for him? ^_^U)

Yugi wanted to cry but fought the urge to. He wouldn't let himself cry. Closing his eyes he calmed himself.

"Do you want to go to school today?" Yugi looked into Yami's eyes and nodded.

"Who will look after the shop?" Yugi asked.

"I will...unless you want me to register?" Yami looked at Yugi.

"That's okay...someone needs to look after the shop, Joey will be there to watch me."

"Okay...I'll go wake Joey up. I'll meet you down stairs," Yami got up and left for Joey's room fighting the urge to kiss Yugi.

Yugi got his bag ready and went down stairs to the kitchen. On his way pictures he never wanted to see again caught his eye...

Yami entered Joey's room and sighed. This would take some time. Yami shook Joey gently.

"Come on Joey...get up...Joey! JOEY!" Yami screamed.

"Just ten more minutes ma," Joey moaned and rolled over onto his side.

"Joey!"

"One more minute!"

"JOEY WAKE UP!" Yami pulled Joey and the blankets to the floor;Joey landing with a thud.

"Ow...wat you do dat for?" Joey asked in a grumpy mood.

"School is in less than an hour. Now come on...get up," Yami smirked and pushed Joey into the bathroom with fresh clothes.

"Whateva..." Yami heard Joey grumble through the bathroom door.

CRASH!

"Wat was dat?!" Joey asked opening the door with a tooth brush in his mouth.

BANG!

"I'll go check!" Yami rushed out the door.

BOOM! SMASH!

"Wait for me!" Joey spit out the tooth brush and ran after Yami.

CLANG!

Pictures were smashed to pieces on the floor. Yugi sat in the middle of all the shattered glass. Tears were in his eyes. He held a hand on each side of of his head, his eyes were shut tight. Shattered glass was lying every where. Yami and Joey couldn't think of why Yugi would do this or even if it was Yugi. All they knew is he definatly was not ready for school.

"Stupid memories...why won't you go away?" Yugi moaned shaking his head furiously.

"Yug!" Joey took careful steps as to not step on the glass.

Yami could hear the crack of glass under his shoes. "Yugi," Yami looked on Yugi's trembling form, "What happened?"

"Too many memories! WHY WON'T THEY GO AWAY! WHY?!" Yugi screamed making Yami take a step back.

"Too many memories? Wat are you talkin' bout Yug?" Joey asked.

"Yugi?" Yami placed a hand on his should and looked at the photos on the floor. Yami picked up one of the photos and turned it over. "Oh Yugi..."

Sakura: Ain't I mean? He he he! I know! I'll end it there cause I'm tired and I got school in the morning! Nighty Night!
