Chapter 1 – Pretending

'I'd give anything to give me to you

Can you forget the world you thought you knew?

If you want me

Come and find me

Nothing's stopping you so please release me.'

I'm so wrapped up in my love for him…why can't he see I'm drowning in my love to the point of obsession?

I was walking along the hall. I stopped as I heard my hikari…singing?

'I'll believe

All your lies

Just pretend you love me'

I only need him to pretend, to humour me.

Who'd pretend? He probably means someone else, though...

'Make believe

Close your eyes

I'll be anything for you'

Now that's an offer I'm interested in…!

I'm being silly, he probably thinks I'm crazy…does singing to yourself count as talking to yourself? Because they say that's the first sign of madness…

'Nothing left to make me feel anymore'

Ryou…? Can these really be your words I'm hearing?

'There's only you and everyday I need more'

I doubt he's even listening to me, except possibly to find a new way to embarrass me…he asks me things that seem so…personal. Last night he asked me what I thought of him…

Oh, Bakura, if only you knew…

'If you want me

Come and find me

I'll do anything you say just tell me'

I've already got a few suggestions…don't make me hold you to your song's word, Oh-Hikari of mine...

…On seconds thought…please do!

'I'll believe

All your lies

Just pretend you love me

Make believe

Close your eyes

I'll be anything for you'

I'd give anything to have one night with you. No lies, no fights, no awkward silences…just you, and me, and bliss.

'I'll believe

All your lies

Just pretend you love me

Make believe

Close your eyes

I'll be anything for you'

I want to rush in and gather him in my arms, kiss him, love him, hold him and treasure him.

…But what can I do? He's singing about someone else…right?

'Anything for you'

Anything, anything, absolutely anything. I won't question or pause on it, please.

I'm getting desperate…can you tell?

'I'll become your earth and sky

Forever never die

I'll be everything you need'

I only wish!

And as I sit on my bed, gazing out my window at two small birds, flying off together I feel a tear on my cheek, slipping away from me…

He's there, I know it, it feel it…I love him, how could I not feel he was there?

He doesn't feel the same.

'I'll believe

All your lies

Just pretend you love me'

I can see he's crying now. His voice was so soft yet steady and full of unspilled emotion, but now it's wracked and torn with sobs.

I rush in.

I know I shouldn't but I must.

It hurts me to watch him cry all alone like that.

'Make believe

Close your eyes

I'll be anything for you.'

I look up as arms wrap around me. Bakura is hugging me…why?

His eyes shimmer as he stares up at me, watching as I finish his song.

And you know what, I still love him.

'Ryou…I love you.'

I can't believe it. I kiss him happily.

This is the best day of my life…and he kisses back.

'I'll become your earth and sky

Forever never die

I'll be everything you need.' Bakura whispered. Ryou smiled, and the two kissed again.

They were completed.

Aww! Anyway. Thanks for reading, please review, naioka1992 - xoxo
