Lily: I-I-I-I-I c-c-c-c-can't b-b-b-believe it!! ^__^ I'm writing a Yami/Yugi fic!! YAY!!!

Iris (Lily's yami): Lily shouldn't be allowed to sugar. Shouldn't at all...

Bakura: I want to find the goddamned bastard that fed her sugary!! I'll send him directly to the Dark Realm!!

Yugi: *sweatdrop* It wasn't like someone "fed her" sugary... she just went and ate it herself. ^___________^

Yami: Oh no... that... big... smile...

Ryou: What?

Yami: Yugi's sugar high!

Bakura: O_O Oh f%$&!

Lily: Bakura!! Language!! *hits him with her Millenium Sword*

Bakura: x_X

Ryou: O.O A-aibou!!

Iris: No worries... she just knocked him out.

Yugi: *hugging Yami's waist* Yami! Yami! Aishiteru!!

Lily: *melts* Awwwwwwwwwwwwww...

Yami: *blushes* I-it's the sugar... the sugar.... sugar...

Bakura: *suddenly wakes up* Oh, isn't the almighty Pharaoh embarrassed?

Ryou: How cute! ^^

Bakura: Shut up, aibou.

Seto: Well, BEGIN this fic already!!

Lily: Yami... da disclaimer.

Yami: Why ME?!

Lily: Cause the anime got your name on it. You are the Yu-gi-oh, duh!!

Yami: *sighs* The Disclaimer... Lily does not own Yu-gi-oh or any of its characters. If she owns anything, they are the plot and any OC that will be found here. Also, she does not own Linkin Park's song "Runaway".

Iris: Arigatou, Yami.

Lily: Yeah ^_________^ Arigatou!! *hugs him*

Yugi: HEY!! *hugs him too*

Yami: *sighs*

Ryou: Let us not forget... This fic contains shounen ai, that means boyxboy relationship, between Yugi and Yami, and... Anzu bashing (hehehe, I'm damn working on doing so ^_^). It's not exactly a song fic, but the song fits well, and looks like a soundtrack for it ^-^ Also, as it happens that the song has two different and similar versions (1 in "Hybrid Theory" and 1 in "Reanimation") both will be used.

Yugi: Also, "__" is Talking, '__' is thinking, /__/ me (Yugi) to Yami, //__// Yami to me (Yugi) and ~ La la ~ are song lyrics.

Lily: arigatou, Ryou-san!! *hugs him*

Bakura: *growls* Maxweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell......

Lily: Hai?

Iris: Arigatou, Yugi-san. *smiles to him*

Yugi: *hugs Yami*

Yami: *blushes*

Runaway - Chapter 1: Broken Trust

~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~:^:~

~ Graffiti decorations
underneath a sky of dust
~

It all seemed as it wasn't real. The bright, the light, the heavenly aura that belonged to him seemed to be fading away. His smile was never true. He was always alone. Whenever what they called "dark side" of him was around, there was just tension between them. His trust was broken. Shattered into pieces. He had taken from him.... everything. And his surroundings seemed gray, without any emotion left... as he was right now.

~ A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
~

Yami had taken away from Yugi everything he once had. His friendship, through his beloved friends, which since Yami had gotten out of the Millenium Puzzle, seemed to be always around him to tell him how amazing he was. His family, as his own grandpa seemed to be always worried sick about Yami, forgetting about his own grandson's well being.

~ The lessons that you taught me
I learnt were never true
~

He had even lied. All the things he had said to Yugi... all the promises he had given the small teenager were already forgotten into the deep dusted world Yugi's life was now. He had promised to always be with him. He had lied. He had learned.... everything Yami said... was a lie. Yet...

Yugi loved him.

~ Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)
~

But it wasn't worth. Yugi just knew it. But... he just couldn't help it. He had loved Yami for quite a while now, he had found out. How he felt strange whenever Yami was around. How he blushed deeply whenever this one touched his milky-colored skin. How he melted under Yami's gaze... or smile. He loved him.

But... he couldn't.

He felt as if he couldn't still love Yami, when he saw him laughing and enjoying being with his friends. Yugi's friends. How they just ignored him, leaving him alone in the called darkness. The darkness of his own heart.

Even though he knew Yami still liked him (when his friends seemed not anymore), whenever Yami sounded sad or troubled, all his "friends" pointed at him, as if he was the cause. The cause of Yami's pain. He was nothing more than that. A pain. Yami's pain. And was guilty about it.

He was confused. And questioned himself... if he could just walk away from all.

~ I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
~

He wanted to run away from everything. From his so-called friends. From his grandpa.

From Yami.

Never looking back. Knowing they wouldn't mind his escaping at all. They didn't even know he existed. Wait. They did know he existed. Because he cared. Yami cared about him. And when it troubled him, they would look at Yugi. Yeah, they would. Pointing at him, as if he were guilty of a horrible crime. Yami's pain. But then it shook him... Did Yami really cared?

~ I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
~

He wanted to know the truth. He just needed to. But he didn't have to courage to ask him. But he would never found if he just kept on wondering around. He could at least just ask him.

'Why do you care?'

'Why do you ignore though?'

'Why... don't you leave?'

'Why won't you help me?'

~ I wanna know the answers
No more lies
~

He wanted the answers. He demanded to know. He needed to know. Yami's answer from last time was not true. He knew it. He could feel it.

/Yami...?/ he had asked Yami through their mind-link that day.

//Yes, Yugi?// Yami replied, while stopping in the doorway to look at him. Yami had asked him to come along with him, as he was going dueling with Jou and the others. Yugi stayed looking at the floor, eyes empty. He knew no one was going to duel with him. Or talk to him. Yami would be there too, so why bothering such an insignificant brat?

/Do I really have to go?/ he continued.

//Well, you won't be doing anything, so yes.// Was the answer he got.

/.... Why do you care?/ Yami's eyes widened a bit.

//Because.... because you're my aibou. I need you there.// he answered. Yugi sighed, and nodded, then following Yami.

Lies. Cause they were partners? They were no longer partners. Even though Yami cared, Yugi was still left behind when he was with Yugi's ex-friends. That was a fact.

~ I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
~

Yugi wanted to just walk away. Run away. Shut the door behind him, and just leave. But also wanted to know. Ask Yami. Clear his mind. Open his mind to everything, knowing the answers, and then be able to leave them far behind, running from everything.

Answers. Running.

Was all Yugi wanted.

Not minding having his heart shattered, as Yami's voice echoed through his innocent mind.

'I don't actually care for you. But you're my hikari, and that won't be changed. So, I pretend I care for you, so you're happy and I'm happy. But I just wished you wouldn't even exist.'

A single tear fell down Yugi's pale frame, as he sat on the corner of his gray room, empty of any emotion, but loneliness and sorrow... And a faint love, that faded to brake, as the words repeated themselves in his mind.

'I don't actually care for you. I don't care for you. I don't. Care.'

[ To be continued ]

Yugi: Why do I always suffer?

Lily: Because it's easy to write.

Iris: But it's easy to write him happy too.

Lily: But I needed a plot.

Iris: Oh...

Lily: Anyway, did any of that made sense to you? I admit, it was kinda.... strange. Oh well, I'm sugar high. And kinda hyper. Can't blame me.

Bakura: Blame her stupid brothers that don't care about insanity.

Lily: Well, THANK YOU, Bakura-sama.

Bakura: Your very welcome. *smiles*

Lily: *walks off mumbling something about tomb robbers being too sarcastic and stupid for their own good*

Yugi: ^^U Anyway, DON'T forget to review. Lily needs at least 3 or 4 of them to begin the next chapter... Continuing the song and the fic. Will I suffer?

Iris: For at least more 3 good chapters.

Yugi: Aww... T-T

Yami: *hugs him*

Yugi: Yay! *hugs him back*

Bakura: *rolls eyes* Oh Ra...
