Okay, it's a shonen-ai songfic. Ryou/Bakura and Yami/Yugi, Bakura-kun = Ryou, Yami Bakura = Bakura. If you no like, you can leave, or stay see if you'll be converted. It's all the same to me. But if you do indulge in the shonen-ai goodness, by all means, continue on. My first Yu-Gi-Oh fic, hooray! Yes, and I *know* that Yugi never calls Yami Yugi 'Yami' except in the dub, but I am not calling him Yu-Gi-Oh, which I don't like, and he's never referred to by name. It's always just 'the other Yugi' and in one episode Yami says that he has been called Yami. (That's the dub, I've only seen the Japanese version up to Jounouchi's duel with Bandit Keith.) The song is 'The Wrong One (Loves You Right), by whoever wrote the song, sung by Celine Dion.

Ryou sighed as Anzu continued on her well-meaning rant. "He's- well, he's not very nice. He was willing to kill us all to get Yugi's puzzle, Bakura-kun. And he was never kind to you. He's-he's just the wrong one for you."

"Anzu-san, I know you mean well, but…" He sighed. "I really don't care how you feel about him. Last I checked, he was my lover, not yours."

"But when has he-."

Ryou then said the last two words he'd ever expected to say to anyone, especially a friend. "Shut up." He smiled apologetically. "Please, Anzu-san, you don't understand." He turned his back on the girl and headed home.

Don't care, what they think

How they feel, or what they say

You're everything, I never knew

I always wanted, baby

I've been warned, so many times

They tell me I've ignored the signs

"Yami?"

The former Pharaoh looked up to see Yugi with tears on his cheeks. "What happened?" He reached for his aibou, pulled him close, and kissed his forehead. "Anzu…I told her…about you and me…and she said that-that we shouldn't be together, because we're too different-and that you couldn't ever love me for real." Yami frowned and when Yugi clung to him tighter. "She's wrong, right?"

"Of-of course."

Yugi offered a sad smile. "I wish that she could understand that."

But nobody knows you like I do

The only one for me is you

"Bakura, please-stop! I'm trying to make dinner and you're-" Ryou moaned as his yami nibbled further down his neck. "Forget it. I'd much rather have you anyway. We can order food."

"But-."

"What did I say about 'but'?"

Ryou smiled. "That you like mine?"

"Don't be a smart mouth." Bakura spun Ryou's around and pressed their lips together. "Now, you are coming upstairs with me," he whispered, "and I am not going to take 'no' or 'but, Bakura' for an answer." With that, Bakura picked up Ryou and slung him over his shoulder, and the boy made no move to fight him.

I can't stop, can't fight, can't resist it

When the wrong one loves you right

Can't run-can't hide-can't say no

When the wrong one loves you right

Yami smiled as he watched Yugi attempt his math homework. "If x is y, and y is thirty-four, and z is p minus six, and p is x, then-darn, I lost my place."

"Then p is thirty-four, so is x, and z is twenty-eight." Yugi smiled his thanks and returned to his work. //See, Anzu, you were wrong, he loves me. I'll be with him forever. He'd never hurt me. Kaiba, maybe, but never me. //

*Of –of course. I'll love you until we leave this world, and after. I will always care for you. *

**Yami…You're the best thing that ever happened to me. **

*I-I'm glad. *

Getting tired, of hearing that

You're dangerous, but they won't stop

Until I leave, they won't believe

That being with you won't break my heart

So worried 'bout, the road ahead

They can't see that, you're my best friend

After their round of lovemaking, Bakura ran his fingers through his Ryou's hair and nibbled on the white-haired boy's ear. "Mine, all mine. Every inch of you is all mine, right?"

"Every inch, centimeter, millimeter of me, you thief, even the little spaces between my toes." Ryou laughed and was pulled close to his yami. "Have you always been this silly?" Bakura asked, fiddling with Ryou's hair again. "Bakura, you smell like sex. Let me go."

Bakura grinned wickedly. "I'll take a shower if you'll wash my back." Ryou smiled and softly kissed him. "Only if you wash mine."
"It's a deal."

They're never gonna take me away from you

There's nothing they can do

"Will you guys cut it out? People are really staring to stare!" Anzu snapped at the couples sitting across from her.

"Why are Honda and the blond allowed to make out in public?" Bakura asked, nibbling on Ryou's neck.

Honda grinned. " 'We don't look like we're committing incest, not to mention statutory rape.'" Yugi blushed, as he did whenever sex came up and Ryou quickly became very interested in the ceiling. "Ashamed of me, love?" Bakura teased. "Because if you are, I imagine Seto-chan is free tonight-" Jounouchi gagged. "What? I think he is very handsome." Ryou looked almost crushed, and Bakura nuzzled his neck. "But you're much more beautiful than he is, lover." Anzu got up, slamming her hands down on the table. "What's the matter, Anzu?"

"How can you discuss this like it's fine," she hissed. "Both of you are old enough to be in a museum, and you're having sex with teenagers who aren't ready for it yet!"

"But-but they're-" Ryou shrugged. "They're just right for us, Anzu. That's all it is, and nothing anyone says will change it." Anzu stormed out of the booth and out of the door. Yami followed her. "Anzu. Please. This is going to hurt Yugi so much, he's going to-."

"I'm going to hurt him? What about you? You almost broke his soul when you were willing to kill Kaiba. I never want to see him like that again. He's so gentle and sweet! What do you think you can give him that won't hurt him! Even if you haven't had sex, I bet you're just waiting to-to seduce him or something. He's too young, too innocent for that. You know he wouldn't have been involved with Pegasus if it wasn't for you. He never would have had to go through that. Now, I'm grateful to you for saving me that time, but that doesn't mean that I'll let you defile my dearest friend, someone I love like a brother!"

"Defile? Anzu, I'm not in this relationship for physical satisfaction-."

She turned her back on him. "Maybe you *think* that, but you're going to change your mind the minute he doesn't obey your every command. I know what guys like you can do. Being so much older gives you an advantage, even if you don't think it does. If you think you love Yugi, then leave him alone." Her words struck long buried doubts inside of Yami's heart. Yugi was much younger than he was, and far less worldly-wise. And it would be very easy for him to seduce Yugi without even meaning to… "Think about it." Then she left, disappearing around a corner. Yami, head filled with tumbling thoughts, went back to the café.

I can't stop, can't fight, can't resist it

When the wrong one loves you right

Can't-can't hide-can't say no

When the wrong one loves you right

When the wrong one loves you right

Yugi stared at his feet as he and the others left the little café. "Why can't she just understand? She always understood everything. What's wrong with this?"

"I think she might be jealous." Yugi looked lost, but Ryou and Bakura both nodded, while Yami looked a little uneasy. "She's upset that I'm spending time with Yami instead of her?"

Honda shook his head. "No, Jounouchi just doesn't know what he's talking about. She's not jealous."

Yugi frowned. "So what is going on?" Reaching for Yami's hand, he was surprised when his lover pulled it away and out of reach. "Yami, I won't get mad. Please, if you know-."

"It's not anyone else's business."

Yugi, one of the sweetest of souls, scowled. Ryou, Jounouchi, Honda, and even Bakura all glanced around uncomfortably. "Well-."

"See you, Yugi, Yami."

"Bye!" The others all made hasty exits, while Yugi glared at his yami's profile. Swallowing, he said, "Yami, if you know something-"

"Let's just say I think Anzu has a good point. It's very easy for someone like you to think that they are in love, especially with someone like me. Perhaps it's for the best that we-that you discontinue your relations with me." With that, Yami pulled the puzzle from his neck, cutting himself off from Yugi's mind. Then, before Yugi could even cry out, he seemed to fade away into the darkness. The smaller of the broken pair burst into hysterical sobs. "Yami…Yami…please, don't go, don't leave me…" In vain, Yugi searched his mind and cried out when he found nothing but his own pain of being left alone. How could Yami do this…Yami was supposed to love him, did, would never leave, and would always love him, how could he think Anzu was right? Didn't he know Yugi needed him…?

How can I walk away

When the feeling's so strong

I know you're where I belong

They say I let my heart

Make up my mind

That's why I'll never say good-bye

Alone again, after living in Yugi's warmth, was enough to drive one ex-pharaoh insane. But he was so much older, wiser, could he expect a real relationship, a healthy one for his little love? Just because he was so drawn to Yugi, was it enough? He supposed Anzu was only looking out for Yugi, he knew how much she cared for her little friend and he thought he was doing the right thing for Yugi, but did the right thing always hurt this much? Oh, why had he let Yugi into his heart? It wasn't right of him-he wasn't suited to Yugi-but nothing wrong could feel so horrible to break! Yami put his head into his knees and, for the first time in all the time he could remember, his strong chest heaved with sobs.

I can't stop, can't fight, can't resist it

When the wrong one loves you right

Can't-can't hide-can't say no

When the wrong one loves you right

When the wrong one loves you right

Where the heck did all this angst stuff come from? This was supposed to be all fluffy. And I'm not trying to make Anzu look bad here, just overprotective, so Anzu fans, don't get mad at me! I kind of like her, just not as a partner for Yugi. She seems too much like an older sister figure to me, even though I can understand that Yugi would have a crush on her. He just calls her 'Anzu'. Even Jounouchi gets a 'kun' at the end of his name. Yeah, yeah, Bakura is a little OCC, but the Bakura on TV is all mean and scary, and a little like a chipmunk on speed, (Japanese voice) and besides, I like the idea of him being sweet to Ryou-chan!

Ryou: Ryou-*kun*! I'm not a girl! Or a little living stuffed animal!

Kero-chan: I resent that! Besides, my name is-

Wingjade: (cuts him off) Bye-bye, everybody! (Let's go before he starts to rant again, Ryou-chan!

Ryou: Ryou-*kun*!
