Yami's Pov
I watched as Yugi fell asleep, thinking about that birthday 5000 years ago
~Flashback~
I left Yugi on the balcony to go fetch him a drink when I suddenly head a loud crack and doors slam when Atem came running over with Heba
"Where's Yugi?" Heba asked
"Out on the balcony getting some air I was getting him a drink."
"Oh no." Heba said before running off
"Atem what-"
"The balcony is collapsing."
"What?!" I ran back over to the doors and saw Yugi banging on them, behind him I saw the stone cracking, I tried opening the doors with father and Atem but to no avail, tear gathered in my eyes as Yugi placed his hand on the glass, I did the same, I saw him mouth 'I love you' and I did the same as the balcony collapsed taking Yugi with it, only then did the doors open, I ran from the throne room and out off a door leading to the garden where the balcony fell. I saw Yugi laying lifelessly on the ground under some stone. I hurriedly grabbed the stone and threw it away and repeated until I could get Yugi out, I pulled him into my lap and checked for any signs of life...there were none I cried shamelessly and pulled him close he made no move.
I don't know how long I sat there to but after a while Isis and Mahad took Yugi from me, even though I tried to keep him close, Atem then come over and hugged me
"No, I need Yugi, you can't take him from me! Please I need him! Don't take him from me! Please, please don't take him." I cried and struggled in Atem's arms
"Yami, stop, he's gone, he needs a proper farewell, you need to let them take him."
"No, I can't, no, no, no, he isn't gone."
"I'm sorry Yami, I'm so sorry."
"I only just got him back he can't be gone."
"I know Yami, I know, I know." I cried in Atem's arms for hours never letting go.
-three days later-
It was time for Yugi's farewell and burial. Father had let me organise his tomb, placed his belongings in the tomb, I constantly wear the gift he got me never taking it off, I had Marik and Bakura set the traps. I stood dressed in black at the entrance of the tomb as his body was carried in, tears flowed down my face, and they fell down Heba's face who was stood with Atem. When Yugi was inside and the guards back out, the tomb was sealed up as everyone left I placed my hand on the door of the tomb
"I'll find you again Yugi, I'll always love you no matter what happens."
~Flashback end~
I sighed remembering that when a hand was placed on my shoulder, I turned and saw Yugi sat there looking tired
"You found me again Yami, don't dwell on the past anymore, it won't happen again." I smiled at him and pulled him into my lap before drawing him into a kiss, it was simple and gentle before we pulled away
"I will always find you Yugi, but I made you a promise that night, to not let you get hurt, and you did."
"It wasn't your fault Yami, I don't hold you to that, you went to get me a drink for something you'd caused, I don't blame you for me getting hurt, please don't beat yourself up about it please Yami, don't." I smiled softly at him
