Forced Love (Puzzleshipping/ Yu-Gi-Oh/ Yami x Yugi)

Chapter 3 - Force

Previously on Forced Love!

"Fine. So what are we doing tonight?" Yugi grumbles, obviously still angry. I'm not used to seeing him angry. Even when I flirt with him, he never actually has this look...

Back to the story!!!!

Yugi POV

Yami looks down at me with confusion but I just stare at the ground. Why is life so annoying. First, I find out that I'm betrothed to the boy that I hate. Second, I find out that grandpa isn't even my real grandpa and that I've been promised to the prince since birth.

Yami POV

"Well tonight's the first night of your seven days of being in a room together," Mom says with a smile. Crap, crap, crap. I forgot that Dad and Mom decided to put Yugi and I in a room together for a week so that we learn to love each other. 

"Um, what," Yugi asks, looking up at me. Those brilliant amethyst orbs of his stare into my soul, causing an unnecessary smile to form.

"You and Yami will be locked in a room together for a week so that you learn to love each other," Dad says happily. I have to stifle a groan. Forced Love. That's not what I wanted. I learned to love Yugi on my own time and that's what I want for Yugi, although it's not like I have much of a choice.

I look back down at Yugi to see that all the color from his face is gone. "I-We-Yami," Yugi stammers, looking at us incredulously. I nod my head sadly and he stops stammering and tears begin to streak down his face.

"I'm sorry," I whisper, hugging him like I used to when we were almost friends. He nods his head sadly. 

"Well before we get you there, let's eat," Mom says happily and I suddenly feel like growling. How can she be so inconsiderate to Yugi's feelings. She treated him like her own son for six years and now she's practically ignoring him.

"Come on Yugi," I growl, following my parents into the dining room. Yugi's kimono glitters in the dim light. Yugi sits down by me at the long table and looks down, his eyes and face blank. I grab his hand and squeeze it lightly, earning nothing from him.

"Yugi," we all ask and he looks up glumly. 

"Yugi, are you alright," Mom asks, glancing over at me like it's my fault. This earns a snarl of anger from Yugi's little body.

"NO! I am NOT okay. I've just learned that I've had no choice in my love life since birth, my grandfather isn't even my grandfather, and I have to be locked up with Yami for an entire week! How could I possibly be okay," he explodes, glaring at her before sobs begin shaking him like a leaf.

"Yugi, it's okay," I whisper and he glares again.

"No, it's not Yami. And you can't even pretend that it is," Yugi growls.

BOO YAH! Not my longest chapter ever but much longer than others I've done!
