"Well, lets get you settled first," Yuugi offered, turning a key in the lock on the front door. There was a sign in the window that read "Closed" and beneath it had the hours that the Game shop was usually open. The first thing that Yuugi did when inside was to turn on the light. The second thing he did was take the hours out of the window.
He really wasn't in the mood to open the shop when he was on his own.
After beckoning Mokuba/Kane inside, he lead him to the back room where there was a staircase going to the second floor. It was somewhat steep, but for Grampa, he, and Yami, it wasn't so bad because they all had somewhat shorter legs. "Could you wait here just a second?" Yuugi asked when they got to the top. "I just want to tidy up my room a bit--hang on..." He knew that there were magazines and random bits of clothing on the floor, and he didn't want Mokuba/Kane to slip on them and hurt himself.
The upstairs of the Game shop was very simple looking. It didn't have any special molding around the doors, the furniture looked "lovingly used," and the light gray generic carpeting looked slightly worn. On their own, Yuugi and Grampa couldn't afford hardwood flooring--and they could afford it even less when the Game shop was being built because they were putting everything they had into the shop.
But somehow they'd been able to design the upstairs apartment so that it would render a warm family type feeling. Now, with Grampa dead and Yami gone, Yuugi felt the exact opposite. When he'd come up the stairs, the white walls and the gray carpet had given him a knot in the pit of his stomach. His room color was blue. It had navy carpeting and the paint matched the color of the sky. Now, instead of soothing him like it was supposed to, it just reminded him of his sorrow.
After he'd kicked the shirts and papers under his bed, shoved it in his desk, or dropped them in the closet, he welcomed Mokuba/Kane into his room. "Sorry... It was just a little messy..." Yuugi explained, immediately seeing something he'd forgotten about. A random sock had fallen off of the desk. He didn't think that Mokuba/Kane would care all that much though... |

Following Yugi into the game shop he began to look around. There was all of the things you could consider hobbies surrounding him. The room was dark, but enough light came through the window in the door behind him. The desk before him was vacant, yet he could see some dueling cards. He chuckled softly, it seemed this place also reminded him of his brother. Duel cards alined within the glass caught his eye. Without lingering for long before he followed Yugi up the stairs.
The way up would be cramped for any normal persons form. But being Yugis size, it was not that bad. Once they reached the top of the steps, he did not take many steps before he was stopped. Obeying Yugis wishes he stood where he had haulted. His gaze travled around as his surroundings. He could see how lonely this place would be if you were the only one in it. Time was flowing rather slowly as he waited, he yerned to be with Yugi again. His foot taped the ground impatiently for Yugis return.
Upon Yugis return, a smile crossed his face. He apporched the door, looking inside, the smile not fading.
"It's alright.." he replied softly.
It felt invigoring that someone wanted to impress him. Fuzzes on the carpet tickled his bare feet, his shoes were left at the door. This room reminded him of the ocean and sky. Spotting the sock a few feet from him cause a chuckle to escape. But he did nto say a word, Yugi seemed to have tried very hard to make it spotless. There was a desk over to his left against the wall and a bed in front of him. Yugis room was rather cozy and warming. Making his way over to the bed before sitting on it. The matress took in his bottoms form and molded to his well liking.
"This is a nice bed..rather cozy." he complimented.
Subconiously trying to put away what they had been talking about. But, if Yugi was going to be their..well Mokubas friend he had to hear everything. Friends did not keep secrets from one another. Though it would be more confortable to tell when Yugi wanted to listen.

Yuugi stood akwardly in his own room as he looked around for a place to sit. His eyes landed on a swivel chair and he dragged it closer to the bed. After swinging one leg over the side of it, he folded his arms nicely on the back and looked at the boy sitting on his bed. The boy who wasn't Mokuba...the boy who seemed to want to say something important.
With his sneakers pressing lightly against the bed he looked at the other and tried to read his face. The other just looked back at him. He heard the compliment and laughed at it in spite of himself. "Yea," he said shyly, "I used to get in fights a lot and we got a softer mattress so that it wouldn't irritate the bruises...and so I could sleep." Suddenly, he realized something. It was only a twin bed... That meant that if Mokuba/Kane were going to sleep here, then they'd probably have to sleep really really close to Yuugi. He knew that sleeping close to another was an easy thing to do--when it was Yami. He wasn't exactly sure how comfortable the situation would be if he slept that close to the other boy.
Yes, Yuugi would probably end up sleeping on the floor. Too bad he didn't have a sleeping bag...or extra portable mattress. He'd just have to put a lot of sheets down.
Setting that thought aside in his mind for a moment, he opened his mouth to speak. "If you don't mind me asking..." he started, "It's not that I don't appreciate you here and all--or something--but--if you don't mind me asking...Why isn't Mokuba here? Do I intimidate him...? I mean... have I done anything that would..." he trailed off, not quite sure how to put what he wanted to say.

His laughter faded as the boy gave him a piece of his story. Though Yugi seemed as easy prey for bullies, so it was not much of a surprise. Looking down to his feet without so much as a word. Kicking his legs to occupy himself. This was all still rather new to him. Usually the things he would say would be harmful and cruel. Things full of hatred for another, but with Yugi, he had nothing at the tip of his tounge. Liking Yugi caused him to be at a loss for words, there was not much else to do. Which made him question why Mokuba had not returned.
When he did look up, his eyes immediatly met Yugis eyes. It was as if it the whole thing had been on cue. The room was well lite, filling the room with a bright yellow glow. He stared at how Yugi sat in the chair, for some reason he found it to be cute. Yet his whole being seemed cute at this point. The silence was relaxing and the room was warm. He too had noticed the size of the bed. Personally he did not mind sleeping in the same bed, especially with someone who made him feel like Yugi did. The thought made him grin slightly. But he would worry about that later.
His grin faded as the silence was broken, taking in all of Yugis words. He had not been offended to the slightest, for he too was wondering the same question. He did not answer for a few moments, trying to find an answer himself.
"To be honest..I have no idea. I think Mokuba might just be to stressed to come out. He was letting out a lot when he was crying to you. But I feel like thats not to whole case, there has to be more. But I think I might have an idea to what it may be. However, I am not sure if I should say it without Mokubas permission or his side of the story. My idea is based on my own feelings, but I guess those are pretty close." he replied.
"But to my knowledge, you have done nothing wrong. If you were to do something wrong, you would know cause on me." he explained.
There was another pause, he was trying to read his others emotions and thoughts. That way he could give Yugi a straight answer. Looking back, his guess seemed to be pretty accurate, he chuckled. His chuckle was noticeable, but he was unsure if he should tell Yugi. Did Yugi even swing that way, or would it become another heartbreak for the other like Seto had been. Outside, the sound of thunder crashed softly among the clouds, rain was approching.

Kane remained silent after Yugi responded to him. His eyes met the floor, becoming worried for his other. Mokuba must have not been stable at the moment, or he would have come out. Had the hospitals senarios really effect him so strongly? He had been crying rather harshly to Yugi, he may still be retrieving any energy that had been taken by the tears. He too caught sight of the clock, it was rather late. They should be heading to bed soon, the thought made him smile. But how would Mokuba react if he were to wake up next to Yugi all of a sudden? Something made him feel like it would not effect him to badly.
Then Yugi broke the awkward silence that had fell into the room. His eyes stared at Yugi, rather blanckly but content. Hopefully Mokuba would know that Yugi was up for listening, he may have to say it to him once Mokuba came back. But Yugis word were making it more difficult to not trust him. Then he started to ramble, like the girls he was describing. A small smile formed, he was so cute. Almost to cute, him being the seductive litte brat he was. He laughed as Yugi continued, not seeming to desire a breath or two. Then Yugi settled down, falling silent, leaving the sound of Kanes laughter to fill the still room.
Once Yugi had finished and got to his point, Kane smiled at him. There was the erge to jump him like a wild beast, but he resisted. He wanted to tell Yugi how Mokuba felt, it may cause less heartache in the future. But he had a vow, as a brother, not to reveal any of his brothers secrets. Then again, who was to say that he could not reveal his true feelings. The very thought made his grin grow wider, taking up a majority of his face.
"Thank you..that means a lot. I just hope you can tell Mokuba that when he does come back. I like you..and I think Mokuba may feel the same. And when I say like..I mean it to the fullest extent." he explained with the same grin.
Hopefully Yugi caught on, to what he had meant. But then he thought twice about his confession. What if he was scaring the boy, making things harder for Mokuba. His smile had now faded, his head falling into his hand.
"Dear god..sorry..I didn't mean to be so blunt. You may not even swing that way. Damnit I let myself become vunerable, your just so trusting. Now I may have screwed things up for Mokuba and myself." he said, voice choked as he held back sobs.

Yuugi was about to respond to Kane when he continued, explaining just what he meant when he said 'like.' At this, Yuugi fell silent. Hadn't he just met Kane? He must have definately made an impression on him if he already liked him like that... Or was that even what he meant? He suddenly became aware of how he was sitting... straddling the back of the chair...pressing his chest into it... He didn't want to move though, because he was sure that he was the only one who realized this, and he didn't want to draw attention to it...if that was even what Kane was talking about.
A few seconds later, he realized that he was thinking right when Mokuba's face fell into awaiting hands and he could hear the stress on the other's voice. "Screwed up...?" Yuugi asked, still trying to get his head around that someone had confessed to him their feelings for him. This had never happened before, and he wasn't exactly sure how to respond to it.
Downstairs, a telephone began to ring. Yuugi was frozen to his seat. It could be Seto calling from the hospital... who else would be calling this late? He was torn... answer the phone or stay up here with Kane--the one who had just told him essentially that he loved him--even if only temporarilly. Yuugi weighed out his options briefly.
If Yami was awake? He could just stay awake and wait for him.
He had something a little bit more important to attend to.
Slowly he got up from his position on the chair and went and sat next to Kane on the bed, his hips tilted slightly so that he could look at the other and one of his knees touching the other's leg. The mattress creaked as his light bodyweight was added, but it was a soft sound. Yuugi took one of his hands and used it to gently turn Kane's face out of his hands so that he could look into the deep orbs. "You can't be talking about your chances with me, can you?" Downstairs, the telephone continued ringing. Yuugi continued ignoring it. "For someone as tough as you," he commented, "You sure give up easilly."
After he said that, the telephone stopped ringing and somewhere in Japan, a man threw his wedding ring onto the ground and left it in a gutter. Since his wife wasn't picking up the phone, she must be in the arms of another man again. 'Untill death do us part.' Well sweetie, I suppose that you're not doing anything illegal because you've certainly killed our marriage. he thought harshly, kicking a garbage can, pretending it would be the other man's groin.
(haha, I feel sorry for that couple. I had to throw that in there.)

((Wow..O.o random and sad sweatdrop And you need to reply to the adventure roleplay Chloie sweatdrop ))
Kane looked in his hand, cursing himself inside. How could he be this weak and pathetic. It was just like Mokuba, he was NOT Mokuba by any means. This boy gave him stange emotions, causing him to act completely out of his usual character. He was never afraid of anyone or anything. It was always ******** the world in his case. But Yugi, he cared about how he felt, what impression he gave him. His fingers grasped his hair in confusion, he hated these feelings. For it was these feelings that drove Mokuba insane. He did not want to end up like him, or they may get another person in their body. Yugi was changing him, for the good or the bad he was unsure.
The phone began to ring, so loud it echoed from the downstairs room. Giving Yugi a chance to stay or go, ina ttempt to catch the caller before the ringing stopped. He knew his choice, he was going to leave. It was not as if he was not use to that by now, being alone. Just a matter of time before Yugi left as well. Though he would come back, unlike the others. Clentching his eyes tightly, refusing the warm tears to stream. Waiting for the sound of the closing door in front of him. Nothing came, no sound except his own breathing. Then a creak of the matress caught his attention.
The phone continued to ring, but their was another on the bed. His eyes shot open, gazing through his fingers. His ears began to pound from the constant ringing from the phone. Then Yugis warmth seemed to lure him closer. His head being turned without resistance. His eyes did not cry, but the look said everything. Yugi was right, it was unlike him. But Yugi scared him, he made him feel to good. The ringing seemed to slowly fade in the distance, even if he could tell it was still ringing. He sighed, Yugi was right. And he hoped that this moment did not make Yugi see him differently.
"I usually dont act like this. But it's just..you make me feel different. I guess I am becoming more like my weak brother. Usually I would not be scared of anything, but your different." he whispered. One of his hands reaching for Yugis face as well.
"I trust you, I even like you. You dont understand...my whole bieng is for hate, thats all I know how to do. But you..I cant hate you. Your incapable of any hate. And since your different from anyone I've met, I care about how you feel about me and what I do. Thats my side..and for Mokuba. I dont want anymore heartbreak to come to him. His brother already did that, its not his fault he confused his feelings of need for lust to his brother." he explained.
Too late to hide it now, he told Yugi that Mokuba had actually fancied his elder brother. But no matter, Yugi did not seem like the type to judge on something like that. His thumb began to caress Yugis cheek softly. Now he too was staring deeply into the others eyes.
"And I think he may like you too...and I dont want things to screw up because of me. I guess in ways I'm not giving up..I'm just being cautious.. for Mokubas sake." he explained.
