Love Forgotten Heart Grows Cold

Darkness. and Shackles.

*~~*Your POV*~~*

You walk into your uncle's home still shivering from the lights around your friends' bodies. The evil and darkness felt like it was going to consume you whole, but what was worse felt like it was beconing you to join them.  The alluring feeling of them guiding you towards them to be with them as you had. -were they always like that? Or was it me that has changed?- you wondered unable to shake off the meeting with the rest of the 8. Jeremy's looks were different as well, he was no longer a slender athletically built with red and black hair, but he seemed to have buffed up in his time away. You made your way away from everyone telling them you were going to freshen up. Yet, as you stood infront of the mirror you were only an image of your past self. Before Domino City you would have seen thick black eye liner and had been wearing one of many assorted black outfits that showed quite a bit of skin. It also wasnt uncommon to have had washable black highlights through out your silver hair. The girl standing infront of you was nearly unrecognizable from the girl you used to be. Her tan Blazor fastened as it shoulder, her long silver hair flowing wildly about her form, and upon her face were only accented colors highlighting her features. You couldnt help but feel lost, seeing your old friends for the first time since you all had to split up and lay low reminded you of who you used to be. The Midnight that would look at someone like Seto who ordered you around and would tell him to shove it, the girl who didnt cling to men as if they were a life line as if you really needed them. She never would have shed a single tear as you had proven when Jeremy had walked out of your life. Yet here you stood, looking like a different person and even acting like one as well. You couldnt help but wonder what had caused this? Or was it your soul that had wished for this change?

                A knock came at your bedroom door with a little jump from surprise you looked through the mirror past you to see Yugi standing just at the entrance of your room. You couldnt help but notice he looked different then he had at the airport but he looks the same as he usually did. -what's up with that?- you silently questioned yourself. "You can come in yugi."

Without a word he stepped into your room looking around, from having been in his house you knew your room alone was pretty much the size of his entire living room, so it wasnt a shocker of how surprised he looked. "Nice place you uncle has here."

"Its cozy, which is a huge change from having lots of empty rooms surrounding your own. Here, i have someone just two doors down from mine. Where back home i had to walk down three halls to even reach my parents." You spoke as you ran your fingers through your hair to look busy even though you were watching him. He seemed uncomfortable in your room but at the same time nervous. -He's probably never been in a girl's bedroom before- you figured but you couldnt help but admire that even though he was a shrimp he was rather cute. His heart was large and his gold light beamed brightly.. your eyes widened as you realized you could see his light that was hidden to you before the airport.

"Wow, i cant believe you were in a house like that i bet.. Midnight are you alright?"

 You turned around to face him still in shock. "I can.. I can see your light yugi.."

"What do you mean? couldnt you see it all along like you did with The 8?"

you shook your head and moved over to your bed and sat down. "as i said, i blocked the lights from my gaze so i only see prominant ones, before the airport i couldnt see yours, but.."

"Now you can" he spoke softly to you as he sat next to you and placed his hand hesitantly on your back as if he was trying to comfort you. you nodded as you leaned further into his touch and reasted your head on his shoulder, he seemed to stiffen as his breath caught before he finally relaxed causing you to smile. "Mind if i ask what you seen?" he asked shyly as you watched him in your mirror, his cheaks were flushed which made him look even more darling.
