Malik and Ryou had a wondorous life of loving care with one another…they always stayed together, side by side. They lived together and continued school with grades being the top now that they had each other to support…loving fingers guiding the pen to the academics and soaring above the heavens to bring them closer to their dreams. Malik wanted to be a doctor, while Ryou was still unsure of where to go from here…

"I love you…" The Egyptian said, his purple orbs gleaming like endless galaxies in a lavender planet nebula. Those stars would never give up on the chocolate orbs opposite…belonging to the whitenette.

"I love you too…" Ryou said, and they kissed, touching and craving one another's silky skins, a beautiful display of showing the world that its painful intolerance can go shove it right up its ass. He loved Malik. He loved his little Egyptian. He loved his tanned lover…

They made love that night. The candles were burning as bright as the flames in their souls. They moved in perfect synchronization with their breathes. They made love until the moon fell asleep, and the sun rose to begin a new day…Luckily it was the weekend, and the sweet boys were able to rest in their grand bed even more royal than a Pharaoh's throne.

When Malik finally awoke, he was awake up and got up to the bathroom. It was only a few seconds, but the extent of the whitenette's love for his tanned Egyptian made him yearn his touch again. He was too far away in the bathroom. Ryou's chocolate orbs almost wanted to cry.

He soon followed Malik to the bathroom, who was brushing his teeth. Suddenly, the Egyptian coughed, and there was blood in the sink.

"Malik!" Ryou panicked, and held his eternal love close to him. "Are you all right?! You've got blood…!"

"It's just a bit of blood…" Malik said, not concerned at all by his own health. "What about you? Aren't you hungry?"

The fact that the Egyptian cared more about Ryou's needs than his own made him almost want to cry. Malik was like that. He was used to putting others before him. He grew up poor and was used to being treated like a second hand citizen. He knew nothing else of life beyond pyramids of lost ages.

The Egyptian coughed again, sands of pain from an aching heart. No! Malik had to get help!

Ryou ran as fast as the winds of Arabian nights to try and reach out for his phone… "I need an ambulance, now! I can't waste time on giving you details! Please, get here right now! I don't care if you have to smash into a building or run over others to save my Malik…!"

Ryou broke down, tears falling down his pale soft rosy cheeks. He felt the agony and pain of his vulnerable heart again. So many years of loneliness…so many years of believing he would never find love. And then, he met Malik.

"Hi, I'm Malik…Malik Ishtar." The Egyptian introduced himself towards Ryou back when they first met, and they shook hands. "I'm from Egypt, which is why I have dark skin." Ryou noticed Malik was quite exotic looking with an exotic name, and the dark skin made him stand out among the peach tones surrounding them.

He remembered that he found Malik's lavender orbs most mesmerizing…did Egyptians even have purple eyes? Either way, he was so unique and exotic among the crowd. He looked like he could be an Egyptian prince. Maybe he secretly was! Ryou had to be friends with him now!

"I'm not racist, so I'll be your friend." Ryou smiled and their bonds were chained like golden metal. Little did he know their friendship would grow into a greater force within the universe, one stronger than the forces binding the planets together – love.

When Ryou snapped out of his flashback, the paramedics busted his door open. Malik had fainted in the bathroom during the wait, and more blood was coming out of him.

"No! I need to save him!" Ryou pushed the paramedics out of the way and began to press on Malik's chest in deep beats to get his heart working again. He then breathed life into his mouth, not caring that the medical team were watching…if they had a problem then screw them…his love, Malik, was more important.

"Sir, we need you to stay back. Let us handle the situation!" The medics then pulled Malik onto a stretcher and hauled him away. Malik looked like a sleeping angel. Perhaps he had already reunited with Orion…

And perhaps, Ryou was alone…again…the same as the very beginning…

Uh oh I did a cliffie~! Well not to worry my children, I will continue this...soon...hee hee XD
