Falcona SkyWolf typing, here! Welcome to my first fanfic! I'm usually quite busy, but 1) I'll be out of work for a while, and 2) I just had to vent. This will not be my only fic, nor will it be the best, I think. I hope you like it, though, for this one really means a lot to me.

Please review, for this fic came directly from my heart. But please do not flame, for I don't want to deal with that now or ever.

Warning: This fic contains very, very vague references to rape, although absolutely NOTHING graphic. The relationship within may be seen as yaoi, but it may also be seen as a platonic relationship. I am not intending for this to be romantic. And, clearly, I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! And even if I did, the events referred to in this piece would not occur, because I wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

Dedicated to Luke, Kaial, and Meta, for listening to me when I needed to vent. Thank you all.

No, Aibou

Written in the point of view of Yami Yugi.

Summary: When the strong one is hurt, how will he find support?

No, aibou, I'm fine.

Really!

Thanks, but I can get up.

Relax, I'm okay.

I'm fine, aibou!

Whoa!

Oh, no, it's nothing. Just a little unsteady.

No, I can walk. I'm just sore.

I am? I didn't even notice.

Well, it's probably just a little gash.

I'll be fine. You know I heal quickly.

Yes, that's a good idea.

Yes, I know it's sort of gross.

What? Oh, damn.

They must have ripped it when the knocked me down.

I don't know why. They would have challenged me to a duel, if they wanted the Puzzle.

They didn't even touch my wallet. I- I don't know why they jumped me.

Yes, I'm okay. I- I just don't like fighting.

Duels are different to me, aibou. I don't like fistfights.

I do? Hmm, let me see. Ow! Yes, you're probably right.

No, I'll be fine. My legs are just sore.

A little. I'll be fine, though. Let's just get home.

Thank you. Aah!

No, aibou. You did nothing wrong. I- I just didn't expect it.

No, you're not hurting me.

I'm sure! It's quite comforting, really.

Ow!

No, no! You didn't do it, aibou.

It's fine. It just hurts to walk.

It helps a lot. It's quite comfortable, actually.

Yes, really. It always helps.

I know. It's not you, aibou. I'm just edgy.

Oh! Aww, it's okay. I was just startled.

Oh, come here, aibou. You did nothing wrong. Come here.

Yes, I could sit for a while. Mm, thank you.

No, I'm fine. I just have something in my eyes.

Really!

Oh, I can't fool you, huh? I'm fine. Just stressed.

I know I never cry, aibou. But everyone needs to, sometimes.

Aahhh, that's relaxing.

Yes, it feels good. Ohh!

No, please. You just hit a pressure point. Shocked me, but I don't mind.

Really. Please, don't worry. I just need to be held.

Mmm, thank you.

What? Oh, I'm fine. It's nothing.

Huh? Oh, you're right. How could my leg be gashed if my pants aren't?

I- I don't know where the blood's coming from.

No, I'm not. I'm just- I'm just not feeling well.

No, aibou, don't worry.

Yes, really. I'm fine. Let- let's just go home now, okay?

Oh! Thank you. Caught me just in time.

I- I don't know. I didn't see him.

What? Oh, that's true, isn't it?

Aaugh, okay. I didn't hit him. I never got a chance. Got a few kicks in, though.

I- I don't really want to talk about it, okay, aibou?

Oh, no. I'm not trying to- I don't want to- not talk, you know.

Just- please, can we change the subject?

No, I couldn't. You have to face someone to Mind Crush.

He was huge. He had me totally beaten.

I- I don't know why he didn't kill me. I don't know just- just why he attacked me.

What? How- how did you know?

Oh, aibou, I'm sorry.

I- I shouldn't have lied to you. You- you're totally right.

I didn't want to- to worry you. You're just so innocent-

Heh, you're right. Innocence doesn't mean ignorance. I wasn't trying to imply it did-

I just didn't want to trouble you with it.

Oh, aibou. Thank you so much. I- I just- aaww.

Yes, it did. It hurt a lot. He- he was huge. A brute. It- it was very violent. I'm lucky he didn't kill me.

I'm lucky he didn't break any bones. But- but it still- it still hurt. A lot.

It took me a while to get my clothes back. He threw them pretty far, and, well, I was crawling.

Yes, I think I'll be sore for some time.

I know it'll always hurt.

You know, I think that's one of the scariest things I've ever gone through.

No, aibou, I'll be fine.

Really!

Because I have you to talk to.

So, how was it? I'd really like to know, but SENSIBLE REVIEWS ONLY! No stupid flames. Please, review- intelligently.
