Unspoken

Yugi Motou sighed as he walked home, running his fingers through his thick hair. He dreaded every moment he spent with his Yami, when he was reduced to a blushing, stammering idiot. It wasn’t that Yami was horrible or anything like that. No, he was perfect, at least in Yugi’s eyes. It was the knowledge that he only saw Yugi as a friend or a brother that hurt, making his heart feel like it was breaking. Knowing that Yami would never love him the way he wanted him to.

Yami looked up and smiled as Yugi walked through the door.

“Hello aibou.” He greeted.

“Hi Yami. How was your day?”

“It was okay. Did you have fun with your friends?”

“Yes. I’m going to go take a shower.”

Yami sighed as his aibou walked upstairs. It was always like this when they talked, polite conversation. Damnit, he wanted more, he wanted to tell Yugi how much he loved him. Apart from himself only one other person knew his little secret, although he would rather they didn’t.

~FLASHBACK~

“Hello Yami.”

“Hello.”

“You’re being very quiet tonight.”

“I’m just not in a party mood Duke.”

“That’s a shame.” The other boy stared at Yami intensely, “Could I talk to you about something?”

“Okay.”

“Perhaps we could go somewhere… quieter.” He motioned for Yami to follow him.

They walked outside and Yami looked at Duke questioningly, “What is it you wanted to talk about?”

“I…” He trailed off before throwing himself on Yami and kissing him.

“What are you doing?!” Yami threw him off.

“I love you Yami.”

“Oh… I’m sorry Duke… I don’t love you.”

“You’re in love with someone else.” He accused.

“…”

“It’s Yugi isn’t it?”

“…”

“Yeah well, good luck with that.” Duke spat bitterly, stalking away.

Yami stared after him for a while he felt someone touch his hand gently.

“Are you okay?”

“I’m fine aibou.”

~END FLASHBACK~

Yami sighed again, Duke had been hurt by his rejection but after a while he’d learned to cope with it and they were still friends. He was genuinely sorry that he’d caused the other boy pain, but he couldn’t help the way he felt about Yugi.

Later that night the two sat quietly watching the television, each stealing quick, admiring glances when the other wasn’t looking.

“Is everything okay aibou?” Yami asked worriedly.

“Yeah. Why do you ask?”

“You’re being very quiet. Did something happen today?”

“It’s nothing Yami. I’ve got a bit of a headache.” Yugi stood up, “I think I’ll go for a walk to clear my head.”

“Would you like for me to come with you?”

“No thanks. I’ll be back soon.”

“Be careful aibou.”

Yugi nodded and grabbed his jacket, as it was quite cold out. As he walked down the street he thought about his predicament.

‘I want to tell him so much.’ He thought, ‘But what if he thinks I’m disgusting? What if he hates me?’

Tears glistened in his eyes and slowly leaked out, trailing down his cheeks. He was so distracted that he didn’t noticed when someone stepped out of a dark alley and started to follow him.

‘I don’t know how much longer I can keep this to myself, I have to tell him. I will tell him, I know he won’t hate me cause he always said he could never hate me.’ Yugi smiled and turned around to head home but before he could take a step something slammed into the back of his head and he blacked out.

***

Yugi groaned and tried to move his hand to his head only to find, to his horror, that he was tied to a large bed and blindfolded.

“Welcome back.” Someone chuckled coldly.

“W… what’s going on?” Yugi asked in a small voice.

“Shut up you stupid little whore.” The person slapped him, making his eyes fill with tears.

Yugi pulled uselessly at his bindings and whimpered as the person climbed on top of him.

“Please…” he cried, “Why are you doing this.”

“Why am I doing this? WHY AM I DOING THIS!? BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO HURT THE WAY I DID! I WANT TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR TAKING HIM AWAY FROM ME!”

The voice finally registered in Yugi’s mind and he gasped as he realised who had kidnapped him.

“Duke?”

“About time you worked it slut.”

“I don’t understand.”

“It’s your fault Yami doesn’t love me. And now you’re going to pay for it.”

“It isn’t my fault. Please let me go. I won’t tell anyone, I swear.”

“SHUT UP!” Duke screamed, duct taping Yugi’s mouth shut, “It is your fault. He couldn’t love me cause he loves you. You filthy little whore, you seduced him just like a true slut.”

Yugi shook his head violently.

“Now I’m going to hurt you, like you hurt me.” He started ripping off Yugi’s clothes, ignoring the small boy’s muffled screams.
