This is the sequel to Beautiful Dawn, I thought that the story would need to continue because it is such a lovely little story between Yami and Kaiba and we never really got to find out if Yami was REALLY over being suicidal or not.
Please don't be mad at me for this story alright? I know a lot of people are going to be pissed with what I'm doing to these two, but its part of the plot. If you have not read Beautiful Dawn, I suggest you read it first so you can have a better understanding of the story.
Summery: A year after Yami falling from the bridge, Kaiba gets into an accident and can't remember who Yami is or their relationship and doesn't want to be with him anymore.
Warning: Yaoi, blood, angst, suicidal attempts, cussing.
I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh.
The title is from Never Coming Home, a Crossfade song that I love dearly.
On with the fic.
Never Coming Home
Chapter One
It's been a little over a year hasn't it?
A year has passed since Yami almost committed suicide by jumping from a bridge, and so far he has been happy and no longer living with the urge of killing himself now that he had been living with me.
He's smiling and being his odd, little self which is fine by me. Though he is still covered in scars from hitting the bottom and cutting him himself on rocks and he still has the large scar on his right wrist, he's doing just fine, stating them as a battle wound from a war he had won.
I worked on my laptop and heard my intercom come on; the voice of my new secretary came though. "Mr. Kaiba, a Mr. Mouto is here to see you." She said and I told her to send him in.
The doors to my office open and Yami, wearing tan pants and a black shirt with white sleeves along with the jacket I got him a week ago, came in with a smile on his face. "Hey Seto, I came by to let you try this new recipe I was working on!"
I chuckled and motioned for him to come closer with whatever it was that he had in that dish in his hand. "Alright, what did you make today Yami?" I asked as he sat on the desk and opened the dish to show a few small chocolate-covered balls with white frosting designs.
"I made Oreo Truffles. They're covered in milk chocolate and designed with white chocolate. I hope you like them; Mokuba helped me get the recipe and helped to buy the ingredients."
"I bet he got himself a bag of chocolate chips just for himself though."
"Yes he did, now open your mouth."
"I said that same thing in bed last night you know." I smirked at him and he stuck the treat into my mouth the shut me up.
"You are such an ass Seto! Why am I dating you?!"
"Because I make you happy."
"Yeah, and I'm thankful you do. I don't know what I would do without you Seto."
I love Seto, very much, but I can never tell him that to his face. I know that he never uses the term himself, unless he says I love coffee when he is half dead on his feet and it sounds weird coming from him, almost unnatural, but I can say it without any problems.
I know I only said it once to him, but that was when I was hyped out on drugs and had a concussion from the fall.
I think Seto heard because he gave me an understanding look, he loves me like I love him, but he will never say it to me.
I walked around the mansion, cleaning this and that since Seto doesn't like having a whole team of people working on the mansion. Says that one needs to do things on his own and shouldn't have people doing EVERYTHING for you. I know that, I would do that as Pharaoh, but there are times you can't so everything on your own.
Oh well, I should go and get dinner started, Seto said he was going to be home early tonight to spend time with me and Mokuba.
I'm happy with my life now, I have a wonderful lover, a good home, friends who actually understand me now, and I don't have to worry about the world anymore. Plus I have not tried anything to kill myself since I jumped.
As I walked along, I saw that it was pouring outside, it looked cloudy when I came home earlier, guess it's a storm right now. I hope Seto will be home alright, it got really dark out there and this is a winter storm so it might be freezing rain as well.
Stepping into the kitchen, I activated my mp3 player to listen to music as I worked on making chicken for dinner. I began to listen to Crossfade and mouthed the songs as I worked, but a song came up that made me frown deeply.
I felt like something was wrong as I listened to this song. It felt like something bad was happening or going to happen, don't know why though.
I'm planning my release
Tonight I'll speak the words I never though I'd ever have to say to you
Hope it stings you so deeply for a moment you might see me
Then I'll leave you there all alone
One more thing that you should know
I'm not ever coming home
I shake it off, but it still seems to be there. I decided to just sing along with the song.
I think we should finally let this go
We both know it's the end of the road
Just as I finished cooking, I heard the phone ring and I picked it up, the caller id said it was Isono. I turned off my mp3 player and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Umm… Master Yami…"
"Yes Isono?" He sounded upset and worried.
"I think you and Master Mokuba should come to the hospital right now."
"Why?"
"Master Seto… he's been in an accident…"
I felt the whole world crumble underneath me as I heard those words. The lines from the song came to my head; the two lines that made my heart feel heavy as I listened…
One more thing that you should know
I'm not ever coming home
Yami wanted me to come home early today, I guess I owe him that much. Work has been keeping me away from spending time with him and Mokuba. Best be going now, it's almost six and I promised to be home before six thirty tonight.
I packed up my stuff and put on my jacket, heading for the parking lot after closing up my office and telling my secretary good night, a habit I have achieved thanks to Yami.
Fuckin' ai, it's a storm! Shit, looks like it will be a slow drive home tonight. I covered my head and ran towards my car and got in, soaked and cold.
I turn on the car and the radio since I don't like hearing the rain when I'm driving. I get out of the parking lot and get on the road. I don't know why, but I feel like this whole drive might not end the way I want it to. It would be best if I just focus on the road.
I can't see very well, it's too dark and the rain is pounding down. And traffic looks bad; I already passed by an accident. Fuck, a red light, and it happens to be the slowest one in town... I stop and wait for it to get over with, listening to the radio.
This song sounds like one of Yami's songs.
All I ever needed was someone to believe in anything that I could give
Maybe there's something beautiful hidden deep in my bones
I'll get as far as I can go
Where I run you never will know
When you're left there lyin' alone
Know I'm never coming home
Something's not sitting right… I can't shake this awful feeling I have. Maybe I should call Yami and tell him that I'll be late. Wait, he told me his battery was dead and he never turns on his phone when he is charging. I'll try and call the house.
I think we have had enough time to know
So know that when I go
It's the end of the road
I blink, that feeling is back and its worse. The light is green, better go.
What is that light? It's coming closer… oh hell! It's a car…!
…
Pain… I only feel pain… blacking out… system down…
Know where I go it's the end of the road
It's the end of the road
I'm never coming home
See I'm never coming home
I'm crying… I just can't stop crying.
"Yami, you should sleep…"
I shake my head, looking at Mokuba who was sitting next to Yugi who came when I called and told him what happened. Isono stood near by, speaking on a phone. Seto… he was hit by a driver who ran a red light by accident when he hit ice.
They found Seto unconscious in his car, his head bleeding and a chunk of metal was through his right side and his left arm is broken.
He's been in the ER for six hours, trying to remove the metal in his body. The chunk of metal that got him in the side has pierced his kidney and cut a part of his stomach. It was large enough to almost hit his lung, but it was about three millimeters away.
-Yami… please speak to me, you haven't said a word since you got here…- Yugi spoke to me through the mind link, I responded back.
-/This is my fault, I wanted him to come home early and he left… but he got into the accident and now he's in the hospital having surgery…/- I bring my knees up and just sob. -/This is awful… my lover, my main source of happiness is half way dead and I caused this…/-
Before Yugi could reply back, a doctor came out; he looked at us with a frown. "Are you here for Mr. Kaiba?" We all nodded and he continued.
"Mr. Kaiba is out of the ER now, but he has not woken up yet. We checked him, he doesn't have a hemorrhage, but he might have some issues with memory from how hard he hit his head on the steering wheel. We have removed his kidney since the damage could not be repaired, but he will get a new one in a few days. We repaired his stomach and his arm will heal in a few days."
"Can we see him?" I asked, looking at the man. I am deeply upset about the damage done to Seto, but I want to see him so badly. The man gave me a frown and sighed.
"Yes, but only one at a time. He is still out but you can see him, just be careful alright?" I nodded and he told me where Seto's room was. I walked there, my thoughts clouded by guilt and I opened the door. I just looked in fear at him.
There was Seto, lying on the hospital bed, looking like a corpse. Seto was a deathly pale; he looked so weak like this. His left arm was bandaged up with a sling, his forehead had bandage wrapped around it. He had a mask over his face to help him breath, and there were machines all around the upper portion of the bed.
This site… it was just awful to look at… I walked over and took his right hand. "Seto… it's me, Yami… I'm so sorry that you ended up like this… but please… don't hate me for this… you know how much you mean to me…" I squeeze his hand and to my surprise, I get a squeeze back.
Blinked, I look up to see his eyes open and I see blue-eyes, dazed and confused. "Hmm… what… where am I…?"
"You're in the hospital Seto… but thank Ra, you're awake!" I smiled, looking at him. But the smile vanished as he looked at me in surprise and took his hand away, looking at me in fear and what he said stung me painfully.
"Who are you?"
I'm never coming home
See I'm never coming home
