The blade drew across pale flesh, leaving behind a thin line of scarlet. It trickled down, meeting with other small streams of blood. Forming droplets, the scarlet liquid dripped and absorbed into a handful of paper towels.
The sting was amazing. The blood was like liquid stress leaving his flesh. The sight of sharp metal slicing into his delicate skin was euphoric. Every last thing about this sinful deed set Yuugi on edge.
It helped block the pain... The real pain. The pain of being abandoned by his best friends. And the other half of his soul. Who just so happened to be the love of his life. And the most popular, lusted-after guy in school.
Yuugi clenched his teeth, cleaned up, hid the blade, and put on a smile. He left the restroom, and went to try and catch his friends at the front of the school. Maybe today they'd want to hang out...?
Yuugi felt bitterness rise in his heart. Of course they wouldn't. They never did, anymore.
"Hey gu-" Jounouchi cut him off.
"So, you wanna head down to the arcade, or somthin', Yam'?" the blond asked a little to loudly as Yuugi approached the group. Mentioned man, after tossing a glance at the approaching Yuugi a glance over his shoulder, agreed with a grin. "Sure. Beats being stuck at home."
'What, is being stuck at the Game Shop with me so terrible?' Yuugi thought, being sure to keep his side of his and the former pharaoh's mind link shut tight. "Hey, guys," he greeted again, a bit lamely, as he jogged closer. "Want to head to the movies, or go to Burger World or something?" he suggested, playing dumb and acting like he hadn't heard their plans. Just like they wanted, and believed. "M-My treat."
Jou rubbed the back of his neck. Anzu looked uncomfortable. Ryuji looked away. Ryou and Honda took a sudden interest in the street. "Sorry, Aibou," Atemu murmured, looking genuinely apologetic, "We were going to head to the, uh, library and study for an English paper..."
Yuugi almost let his smile drop. Almost.
He shrugged nonchalantly, as if the lie didn't hurt at all as badly as it truly did. So, now Atem was lying to him, too. "Oh, okay, then," he replied, still smiling faintly. How could they see how it obviously did not reach his eyes?
