Me: I want you to enjoy this story.

*Yugi POV*

"Yugi...I'm sorry. But, I only see you as a best friend"

Those were the last words he said to me. I ran off after hearing those words, not wanting to hear anymore.

That was the guy I liked. Yami Sennen. So I'm Bi. Deal with it.

I had poured my soul out to him in a letter and signed it extra special. I had slipped it into his locker. He had approached me after school and told me those words.

I cried as much as I could. I knew my older brother, Atem Muto, was worried when I passed him when I came home, tears flowing down my cheeks and not saying anything as I went to my room.

I heard a knock on my door.

"Go 'way" I sniffed.

"Yugi. I'm worried. Let me in and tell me what happened" Atem begged.

"No" I said forcefully.

"Yugi...please" Atem pleaded.

"Atem..." My voice wavering.

"Please" Atem tried again. I walked to my door and unlocked it. Atem opened it, and I got on my bed and held one of my pillows to my chest.

"Now, tell me what happened" Atem said, sitting next to me. He pulled me a bit, so my head was laying on his chest.

*15 minutes later*

"And I slipped a note in his locker. I had poured my entire soul into it." I sobbed.

"What did it say?" Atem asked, stroking the side of my head in hopes to calm me down. I pulled the note out of my pocket. Atem unfolded it and read it.

'You may be out of my sight, but not out of my heart.
You may be out of my reach, but not out of my mind I may mean nothing to you, but you will always be special to me.

All I want is to be with you.

Yami Sennen, Aishiteru. I love you with all my heart.

Beloved Yami, I hope that you feel the same way.

-Yugi Muto'

"Yugi. This is amazing! What did he say?" Atem asked me. I started to cry again. I heardAtem put the note down and he held me close.

"H-He said he w-was sorry b-but he liked me a-as best f-friends only" I sobbed. Atems arms tightened around me.

"Shh. Don't cry. Don't cry. It'll be okay. It'll be okay" he cooed softley in my ear. He kissed my forehead. "Do you want something to eat?" he asked me after about a half hour of us just sitting on my bed silently.

I nodded and sniffed.

"How about we order out tonight" Atem suggested. I nodded again.

"Okay" Atem said. He kissed my forehead again and left the room. I curled up with my pillow again. I decided that if Yami didn't want me, then I didn't want anyone. I went to the bathroom and pulled out a razor. I sliced into my wrist. I felt slightly better, seeing the red liquid flow from the cut. I sliced again, only a bit lower than the first cut. Yes. All of my pain was being taken away by this. I sliced my other wrist a few times as well. When I was done, I cleaned off my wrists and the razor, cleaned the skink and went back to my room to find my wristbands. It was time for me to change, I realized. Even if Atem would deeply disapprove.

*A few days later*

*Normal POV*

"Yugi!" Atem gasped when Yugi came out of the bathroom one morning. Yugi had changed quite a bit in the past few days. He had dyed his golden bangs and crimson tips grey. He was wearing his black leather choker, black writbands, black jeans, and a black shirt. He was also wearing grey contacts.

"Yugi. You're not going to school like that. You can go to school when you turn and change back into the Yugi I know" Atem said. Yugi grabbed two granola bars from the circle cabinet. He picked up his backpack and headed towards the door. He opened it.

"Atem. The old Yugi you used to know? He's gone. I locked him away" Yugi said silently. He left the house and headed to school. A few tears escaped Atems eyes when YUgi had said that to him.

Why had his baby brother changed like this? He didn't want it, and he didn't like it. At all. He wanted the old Yugi back. When Yugi said that 'the old Yugi he used to know was gone and that he had been locked away', Atem knew one thing.

He wasn't the key.

Yami was.

*With Yugi*

Yugi reached the school and entered. Immediately, people began to talk about him. Many people asked why he had changed. Yugi only ignored them. He bumped into Yami, Marik, Bakura, and Seto.

"Wow. Yami, it looks like he grew some backbone!" Bakura said.

"Kitty, don't encourage Yugi's change" Marik scolded.

Seto didn't say anything. He was just too shocked.

"Yugi...what brought this on?" Yami asked. Yugi hung his head and brused past them. Yami heard the words Yugi whispered as he passed by.

"It was you, Yami. I changed because of You."

Me: This story has mentions of self-harm and cutting and attempted suicide in later chapters.
IS: If that is not for you, just simply don't read this story.
