A/N: Onto the next chapter! And if you thought the first
chapter was slow people, don’t. This is
a sequel. The first chapter was meant to
be attached onto the last chapter of Broken Darkness but it didn’t turn out
that way, now did it?
Broken Darkness
Chapter 5
Jou
School couldn’t
end quickly enough and I headed over to the hospital the moment I changed my
shoes. I didn’t know what was going to
happen when I got there but I didn’t want to know what would happen if I didn’t
go there.
…
When I arrived at
the hospital I saw Yami and Yugi there, on their way in. How in the world had Yugi had beaten me to
the hospital? Oh wait, he had to leave
class early for a medical reason, at least, I think that’s what he told the
teacher.
“Yugi, what’s
up?” I asked, running up to them and placing my hands on my knees as soon as I
caught up, slightly out of breath. Yugi
smiled at me and held tightly onto Atemu’s hand. It was sweet watching the two of them
together. They looked so much alike and
yet had completely different personalities.
“Oh hey Jou,”
Yugi said happily, “We’re just going in to see the doctor about Atemu’s
pregnancy.”
“How far along
are you Yami?” I asked curiously.
“A little over a
month,” he stated proudly. “Although I don’t know how a doctor in this city or
any doctor for that matter will understand or comprehend me, a male, being
pregnant, I just don’t get it.”
“Do you know how you’re going to
give birth then later?” I asked and Yami’s face turned pale, which was a little
funny. It went from being the darkened
Egyptian colored skin to something a little lighter, more like the color of
sand. I don’t know why it just seemed
funny to me.
“Yugi explained
to me this thing called a C-section which to him seemed like the only way I was
going to give birth. Of course, once he
really explained what it was I fainted to the floor and he won’t describe it to
me again,” Yami said. “I hope Kana is going to give me another option rather
than have me cut open.” He shuddered and
I watched Yugi give his hand an encouraging squeeze. “We don’t exactly know how one of the doctors
here, whoever ends up seeing me will take it.”
“But this is the
emergency room entrance,” I pointed out. “Why?”
“This hospital is
part of a doctor’s office too; we’re just cutting through,” Yugi said, “Rather
than go around because it looks like rain.”
I glanced out at the sky and noticed it did look like it was going to
rain. “So where are you going Jou?”
“Trying to find Kaiba,” I replied.
“I kinda promised him I’d see him in the hospital because he’s having trouble
with his sight.”
“Oh, be sure to
tell me all about it later, okay? Is
Seto going to be okay?” Yugi asked and then looked at me oddly. “For that
matter, are you going to be okay?”
“Why do you ask?”
I questioned. “Do you think something is wrong with me?”
“It’s just that
you haven’t gotten angry at Kaiba lately,” Yugi said. “Just something I’ve
noticed.”
“I’ve um…” I didn’t
know how to respond. If I told him that
I couldn’t get angry anymore, Yami might think Kana had something to do with
it, which she did. And I would probably
be unable to hold back and tell everything about the dream, pissing Yami off
and making Yugi worry to the point of ridiculousness. I wasn’t about to do that to my best friend
and his Yami…his soon to be husband.
“There are other ways to get back at Kaiba than just getting angry all
the time.” For added affect. “Shizuka
told me to kill him with kindness and wit…so that’s why I’m trying to do.”
“Oh, well that was sound advice;
it’s good to know you’re taking it,” Yami said with a smile. “Even if it did
take you a long time to start taking advice.
Does Kaiba notice a change?”
“You could say
that. I am going to visit him after
all,” I replied. “I mean he wouldn’t let me near him generally unless he wanted
another chance to piss me off, although now I think he’s grown past that.”
“So he broke it!”
Yugi exclaimed happily and embraced Yami.
He pulled away suddenly and looked at me. “Seto’s bad habit was making
you mad. If he’s broken that habit then
good things are sure to follow.” I began
to blush and I didn’t know why. “Never mind me Jou, we better get going inside
too, come on Atemu.” I watched them head
inside ahead of me.
“Hey, Yami,” I
began and the two turned around, Yami looking at me with a puzzled expression.
“How far along are you now?”
“Around a month,”
Yami said with pride apparent in his voice as he ran a hand over his stomach.
“I’m still having morning sickness though, but that’s not the worst part.”
“What is the
worst part?” I asked curiously.
“Morning sickness
doesn’t just come in the morning,” he said with a small moan. “But yeah, one
month so far, eight more to go. I’m
doing fine Jou, thanks for caring.
“Good,” I replied
and waved them off once more. He looked
healthy enough. He didn’t look like
anything bad would happen in the future…but my dream was reason enough to
believe something would. How would my
price change what Kana said would happen?
It had to be worth it and she would do it, it was her duty, right? I paid a price and the customer should always
get what they paid for, right? At
least…I hoped that was how it worked with supernatural things.
Kana
It was a little funny. Yûko-san hadn’t come back to tell me to give
Jou his anger back, even though I had promised her, (sort of), that I would
have given it back the next night. Oh
well, it seems she sees where I am going with this. And now the price was fully paid, the pharaoh
would be just fine. I hoped I could say
the same for Jou and Seto. I wondered
how they would deal with their newfound weaknesses…Jou’s inability to get angry
and Seto’s lack of sight. This would be an
interesting year.
Jou
“There you are
Jou,” Mokuba said, running up to me as I headed into the hospital. “I’ve been
waiting so I could take you to Seto’s room.”
“How is he?” I asked as I followed
Mokuba past people towards an elevator.
“We’re still
waiting on a few test results, some of which will only be here by tomorrow, but
other than that, it seems really plain.
Seto’s blind by some unknown cause.
Some nurses have been teaching him how to use his other senses better to
make up for lack of sight and I’ve been talking with him about getting a
seeing-eye dog too,” Mokuba said. “He said he’d prefer you to lead him
everywhere but I forced the issue saying you couldn’t be with him everyday and
besides, you hate him, don’t you?”
“Why do you say
that?” I asked curiously as we stepped into an elevator.
“I say it because
Seto came home the other night crying. I
asked him why and as he was sobbing on the couch he muttered ‘he hates me’ and
I knew it was you,” he explained, pushing a button for the fourth floor. “Do
you hate him?”
“I want to you know, I want to get
mad at him and yell at him and hate him…but I can’t. It’s not worth it. He can’t see anymore, I guess you could say
that’s Karma,” I said with a sigh. “I don’t hate him really though…only when he
tried to hurt me. I hate it when he
teases me and doesn’t let up, how he acts like he’s better than me…”
“I know Jou, I understand. You may think I don’t but I do,” Mokuba said
gently. “Come on, it’s just down this hallway to get to his room.” I looked out at the wall across the hallway
from the elevator exit; I hadn’t even felt the elevator stop. “Come on Jou!” I felt him grab onto me and drag me down the
hall. “Seto’s going to be really happy to see you, well, not exactly see you I
mean, you know, but just to have you there will make him really happy.” I found myself laughing at this. “What’s so funny?”
“You’re okay with
me liking your brother?” I asked him and Mokuba paused in his step. I don’t know why he stopped though, either it
was the fact that I just admitted to liking him or the fact that he was or
wasn’t okay with the fact I did like Seto.
“Why wouldn’t I
be okay with that? I’ve known Seto’s
liked you for a long time now and to know that you like him as you’ve just
admitted means I might get another brother, even if he is dating my real
one. We never really had family you
know, we only had each other from when we were little,” Mokuba said.
“I know, it was
all brought up when we were in that virtual world with that brat Noah,” I said
and Mokuba nodded.
“But if you are
with Seto then I know that’ll make him happy and we’ll be a real family again!”
Mokuba said excitedly. “Even if it isn’t a normal family…but I know we’ll be
happy, right?”
“You’re jumping to conclusions here Mokuba,”
I said. “Whoever said I was ready for that kind of thing, much less with
Kaiba?”
“But you are, aren’t you?” Mokuba
pressed. “I can tell, you’re not getting mad at him for everything he’s done to
you in the past, you’re actually considering the possibility aren’t you?” I let out a heavy sigh.
“You really are
getting ahead of yourself Mokuba,” I said. “For one thing, I’m not getting
angry because…because well I just can’t.”
Crap, I had to cover it up. “I guess now that I see him at his most
helpless, I can’t help but pity him.”
Good cover stupid. “If you’re taking that pity to mean I want to be with
him I don’t think your head is on right.”
“You’re lying,”
Mokuba said. “I can tell, you looked away and blushed. If that’s what you want to keep telling
yourself though, go right ahead, denial won’t help in the end, although it
could lead to an emotional outburst when you do admit what you know to be your
true feelings.”
“How do you know
all this stuff? What did you read or
watch that told you this foolishness?” I asked and he smiled at me. “What’re
you smiling about?”
“I read a lot,
contrary to what you might think,” Mokuba said and began walking again towards
Seto’s room. He whistled a little and I
glared at him.
“Just what do you
read?” I asked him and he looked at me over his shoulder.
“Various things,”
he said, “Hey, this is Seto’s room.” I
looked inside and sure enough, Moneybags was awake lying on a hospital bed.
“Hey Seto,” I
said as I walked into the room. Seto
looked around for the source of my voice from the pillows and sat up, scooting
over and motioning for me he wanted me to sit close. “Can you see me?”
“No I can’t. Come sit here Jou, please.” His voice was
soft, almost begging me to do it and I did so without argument. His hands felt for my arm and once they did
they moved up until he was able to feel my face and he smiled. He looked nicer, much nicer when he smiled.
“I’m glad you came.”
“I’m surprised you’re not doing work
right now as you wait for those tests to get back.” Seto frowned at my comment and his hands fell
down to my arm again, as if he was afraid I’d disappear.
“It’s not like I
can do much work in this condition,” he said and lifted his hands in a helpless
gesture. “I’m glad you came here Jou, I knew you wouldn’t back out on a
promise.”
“I never have,” I
said. “How are you feeling?”
“Helpless,” he
whispered and buried his face in his hands. “All I see around me is darkness! It’s haunting, I hear voices but I don’t know
where the come from. When the nurses had
me walking around I was afraid I was going to injure myself. I didn’t know what I’m going to do. I feel lost Jou.” I took my hand and cautiously put it on his
back. I had been facing him before but I
shifted a little now so I was sitting parallel to him. “Are you going to leave
me now? Jou, I’m so sorry. I hurt you…”
“Ah shut up,” I
said. “I’m not mad. I couldn’t be mad
now even if I wanted to. I’m just glad
you’re okay. Really glad…in fact…”
“In fact what?”
Seto asked. I glanced over to the door
and noticed Mokuba wasn’t there. In
fact, he wasn’t anywhere near the room.
I took a guess that he was talking to the doctor or something or just
plain leaving us alone.
“I don’t know
Seto, I’m just glad it wasn’t something worse I guess,” I said.
“Any worse? How could it be worse than this? Jou, I can’t run my company blind!” he
exclaimed. “How am I going to walk to get my diploma at the graduation
ceremony?” He raised his head in a
hopeless gesture.
“That one is easy
Seto, I’ll help you,” I said before I realized I had said it. He looked towards me, in my general direction
and his hands moved to embrace one of mine.
I blushed and was grateful he couldn’t see me at all.
“You will
Jou? Gods, what did I do to deserve
that?” he asked. I turned so I was
facing him. He seemed so changed in such
a short amount of time. “Jou, I’m really sorry I don’t know what I was
saying.” He seemed as if he was working
himself into some sort of panic!
“Kaiba its okay,”
I said. “I’m not mad.” Not that I could
get mad at him to begin with.
“No, it’s not
okay,” he whispered. Okay, now he was
freaking me out. What was he getting at?
“I hurt you Jou, I shouldn’t have done that.”
“Kaiba, sorry, I
mean Seto, just tell me what the matter is!” I exclaimed and he began to
cry. I think moneybags is having what we
normal people call a mental breakdown.
It couldn’t be a midlife crisis, he was just barely 18!
“How could I have
hurt you…how could I have hurt the person I love?”
