Lovesick (Puzzleshipping)

Chapter #10

Yugi's POV.

"You are doing great efforts here Yami! I am so proud of how you made it through the past few days." I smiled. I was really proud of him. Yami is a really strong person plus this seems to be a good distraction away from what happened about a week ago..

"Does it mean I get a kiss now?" he chuckled.

"Yes you deserve one." He's gonna be very disappointed.

"What? Really??" His eyes widened.

"Yes, on your cheek." I kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Oh well that counts too." he placed his hand on his cheek.

"What? So you're not annoyed?" I'm confused.

"No. I still got to be close to you and got a sweet kiss on my cheek.. I'd be ungrateful if I were annoyed." He had a silly smile on his face.

"I know what you're trying to do. You want me to fall for your sweet talk and kiss you but I won't. You're no good with traps." I was surprised that his smile never faded.

"It's fine. You don't have to do anything. Shall we carry on with the training??" he said. I've never seen that side of him.

"Well I better go and help grandpa with dinner. Take some rest. I'll be back with the food." I faked a smile. I'll find out what he's hiding..

I shut the door behind me and I was deep in thought. Maybe I was just making things up. But I'm really enjoying what I'm doing. It's better than any pizza restaurants although I don't get paid here.. Well technically he pays me something worth more than money. The way he looks at me with those deep crimson eyes that carry the sadness of the world but never fail to make me happy. I really hope you wouldn't leave me after you've gotten better Yami. I know you come from a wealthy family and I am no good for you..

Yami's POV.

Well thanks to Yugi's weird exercises and what I do on my own at night I feel much stronger now. Or maybe I'm just hallucinating.. "Ugh. How pathetic. No Yami don't give up! For Yugi's sake." I held onto the walker assist tightly and tried to get up at least. I fell back to the wheelchair a few times but eventually I made it. "Yes! I did it!! Y-yug...i.." I felt like the room was spinning and I blacked out.

Yugi's POV.

"Is he gonna be alright doctor?? I don't know what happened.. He was fine and we were joking and.. Ugh I shouldn't have left him alone.." I was trying to hold in my tears. I don't want anything to happen to Yami.

"It seems like he was put under so much physical pressure. He just needs some rest. I took a blood sample to make sure everything else is normal. My assistant will keep contact with you. Take care." said the doctor.

"Yami... I am so sorry.. I didn't mean to pressure you, I really just wanted to see you walk again as soon as possible. I want you to be happy.." I couldn't hold my tears anymore. I lied down beside him and held him tightly. "I am sorry."

Next morning.

"Yugi? What are you doing?" I instantly opened my eyes as soon as I heard my name.

"Yami you ok?? You passed out last night!! I was so worried."

"Well if you're going to be holding me like this I don't mind passing out every single day." He smiled nuzzling me. I soon realized what he was talking about. My face turned red like a tomato.

"I w-was so worried ab-bout you.. Uh for God's sake can you stop??!" I sighed in relief when he let go. I sat down properly.

"Yugi why do you keep rejecting me that way? I don't want to get the wrong message..but you are giving me the wrong message. And it hurts to receive it from you." his smile faded.
