You Don't Understand!

Betrayal

The steady beeping of the heart monitor was the only sound in the room other that the quiet sobs of the one beside the bed.

Yugi Moto lay in the hospital bed on a ventilator. There was a bandage wrapped around his head and his leg was in a cast. There was a bandage over one of his cheeks, and several cuts on his arms.

In the chair beside the bed, Heba Moto, Yugi's twin brother, sat, holding his brother's hand as he cried quietly for his brother.

Solomon Moto, the boy's grandfather the only living relative apart from each other, walking into the room. Tears of sadness filled his eyes at the heartbreak and familiar scene. Solomon walked over and placed a hand on Heba's shoulder.

Heba looked up into his grandfather's tear-filled violet eyes. "Why, Grandpa? Why did this happen?" Heba asked in a voice that could only be described as broken.

Solomon sat down beside his grandson and pulled him into a hug. "I don't know, my boy. I don't know. All we can do is wait." Solomon said.

"Why couldn't they believe? Why did they believe those rumors?" Heba asked.

Solomon sighed. "That is for them to answer." Solomon said.

Yugi and Yami had been in a relationship for six months as had Atemu and Heba, but it all fell apart a few weeks ago.

Rumors had started at school that Yugi and Heba were sleeping with other boys.

Atemu and Yami had confronted them, but they denied it. Unfortunately, Yugi and Heba had been disappearing a lot, so Yami and Atemu didn't believe them. After yelling unforgiving words, Yami and Atemu broke it off with the boys, saying they were whores.

"We didn't cheat on them. We never would have. Why couldn't they believe us?" Heba asked.

"They can only answer that." Solomon replied.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Yami screamed at the top of his lungs.

Tea cringed in fear at the volume of the former spirit's voice at her confession of her deception.

"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO US?! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE?!" Atemu roared just as loud.

"I'm sorry! I didn't think!" Tea cried, tears falling down her face.

Leo and Yuesei were holding back Atemu and Yami, who looked like they were ready to kill Tea.

Of course, they had a good reason to want to with what she had just revealed.

"Tea, how could you do something so underhanded and wrong? Do you even know what you've done?" Kyla asked.

"I know. I didn't think it would be this bad." Tea said.

Joey, Seto, Marik, Malik, Bakura, and Ryou all looked at Tea with nothing but anger and hatred in their eyes.

Sayora and Mokuba looked at her in pain and anger.

Tea was crying at what was going on.

"Tea, do you know what you did by spreading those rumors? Do you have any idea what people have been saying about Heba and Yugi since you did that?" Joey asked, anger evident in his voice.

"I didn't think it would happen. I just did it. I didn't mean for people to call them that or to be mistreated the way they were." Tea said.

"Well, they were. You destroyed their lives by your lies!" Seto shouted.

Tristan and Duke walking into the room and were startled by Seto's words.

"What's going on?" Tristan asked.
