Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ I'm Sorry ❯ I'm Sorry ( One-Shot )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Ok …Um, this is sort of off of a poem I have posted on/fiction/press/./net.. It's called I'm Sorry, and the link to my other profile is in my profile… And I wrote this…half a year ago? Don't know when I posted it, but I realized this would be great to an angst fic.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, as it belongs to its respective creators!

Otherwise, we'd be famous and extremely scary.

I'm Sorry: Yugi's POV

I walked down the street before reaching the game shop. Muttering a weak, “Tadaima,” I walked up into my room, shutting the door quietly.

Why were you never there?

Tears fell down my cheeks before I swiftly wiped them away, muttering, “Okaeri nasai…okaeri…”

When I was lost,

“Why? Why? Why did you steal my friends…Pharaoh? …Heh. That seems so impersonal. I have to be nice. I have to be the annoyingly cheerful hikari.”

You were gone.

I broke down on the ground, spitting what little of lunch I had had. Yes, that's right. You so perfectly forgot that I was in need of lunch money too?

Why were you never there?

I curled into a ball, shutting out the outside world as I muttered…the mutterings of a broken person. Beautifully broken. Most likely as perfect as the person who did it to me.

Was I an unworthy person?

I feel as if I'm in the dungeon…

Was I unwanted?

Begging you for my survival…

I'm sorry.

I bet that's what you want to hear after all these years. Too bad.

Please take me back,

I saw the way you looked at me, but I righted myself. You know, I bet you really wanted to see me begging.

This place is scaring me.

So you could be my knight in shining armor.

I'm sorry.

Why can't you understand?

You weren't there…

You left me alone. And you took the people who helped me.

Because I was never there either.

I felt like I was invisible. Never there.

So I have no right to talk.

Don't worry. I'm pretty sure you stripped me of all my rights as I fell from the “friendship” circle.

No right to laugh.

I couldn't be in your presence.

No right to sleep.

I shouldn't live in your household.

No right to eat.

I couldn't eat off of your money.

No right to…

No rights. That's right. I have no rights. None, and I am happy to admit.

Do anything like we used to.

I wouldn't care. You broke me. Everything we've ever done. Don't worry. You stripped me of that as well.

But,

You know what I hate?

You always come back…

You always are there.

Always seeming to repel my question onto me.

Always asking.

You always ask,

Interrogating me.

“Why were you never there?”

Using a soft voice. One that makes me feel worse than a criminal.

And I, I always reply,

I always reply. To get rid of my guilt.

“I am where,

I tell you what you want to hear.

I want you to be.”

Whether it's, “I got lost.” Or “I was doing my homework. I didn't look at the clock.”

You're very kind.

My friends call you kind. Nice.

You never seem to take advantage of me,

In a way you are.

Force me to do anything.

In another you are crueler than the men who used to hit me.

But, you see…

I'm broken. More hurt than you could ever imagine.

That's exactly why I…

That's why you see…

Have to say…

I can't really stand to be with you…

“I hate you.”

That I don't enjoy your presence. It doesn't give me the same calm it did those years ago…

And I can say it so cleverly,

I can beat around it,

In ways that you see as…

Make you so utterly oblivious.

“Loving gestures”…

You still see me as the teen from those years ago…

Things like picking up your clothes…

But I can make you regret it.

But when you look,

Am I really like that?

Am I really being nice?

I don't understand. I hate you. You destroyed my happiness.

Like that time I put a scorpion in your bed?

I bring revenge many times. Once it was a scorpion? You remember, don't you?

You just laughed and said,

You said that it was an accident.

“I must of left the door open.”

…Scorpions are not native to Japan, my pharaoh.

What a liar you are.

You know it. But you don't think, sweet little Yugi did it?

A sweet, naive liar.

Liar. You know I did it.

But you know.

After all, I'm the only one who has entrance to your chambers.

On closer inspection,

There was a purpose.

There's no possible way for this to happen…

You know someone's out to kill you.

The deadly animal was put…

Who else would know where to put the weapon?

Exactly where he would blend in.

You are a yami. That is the only reason you survived.

You know,

But upon further inspection,

Yes I'm sure you know.

I have found your weakness.

I'm sorry.

Your constant apologies were all I needed to hear.

What was it you were saying?

I can't believe how stupid I've been.

I'm sorry.

The way to free me from the pain,

It was a mistake on my part.

And hurt you as much as possible…

I'm sorry.

Is to kill me.

I'm sorry.

I've wondered, you know.

How I despise that word.

Why you apologized so often.

So…

Oh well. Doesn't matter now…

Sayonara Pharaoh.

Bye bye.
