“Well maybe you wouldn’t need to make it up to him if you hadn’t started to date Téa!”
“I'm not dating her by choice. She disgusts me.”
“What do you mean Yami?” Ryou asked
“She's blackmailing me into dating her.”
“What does she have on you prince?” Malik asked
“The one I love.”
“Huh?” Joey asked
“I love someone but I'm too afraid to tell them, Téa found out and used it against me so I'd date her. I don't even like women.”
“Who are you in love with?” Malik asked
“I-“
“Is it the mini prince?” Bakura asked
“Well…I-“
“You're in love with Yugi?!” Joey yelled
“To put it bluntly yes, I'm in love with Yugi.”
“Why not just tell him?”
“I'm afraid he'll reject me and then hate me.” They all started laughing
“Thanks for the support guys.”
“How…How ironic.” Joey said in between breaths
“What do you mean?”
“He means Yugi is in love with you but is afraid of rejection as well.” Marik explained
“Yugi loves me?”
“Well duh! Haven't you seen the looks of hurt on his face every time you were with Téa?”
“No-“I was cut off by my phone ringing. I pulled it out of my pocket to see the caller ID say Yugi and I quickly answered it
“Yugi what is it?”
“I-I just got a phone call from Téa.” I growled
“What did she say?”
“S-She said that if I didn’t stay away from you she would make sure that I would never be recognised by anyone… she also said that I'm holding you back from being happy.” I could hear him crying on the other side of the phone
“Shh, calm down Yugi.”
“C-can you c-come here?”
“Where's Atemu?”
“A-at the museum with Grandpa and Heba. I wanted to be alone, can you please come here?”
“Sure Yugi I'll be there soon.”
