Bakura's POV
---
I stood next to a bed, distracted. I looked around the room at all the décor. Pillowcases matched bed spreads and it all screamed innocence. Heavy window drapes shrouded half the room. A bright green lamp gave the atmosphere an artificial light. I never did care about decorating. A pale sent of copper wafted through the air. My eyes were brought to the floor. Matted, blood stained carpeting seemed to bring all the furnishings together. A damp impression of a human lay in its fibers. It was small and matched the body of its owner. Yuugi.
His fragile frame lied in an awkward position on the mat that the doctor's had put him. They had closed his large eyes as if to say he was merely sleeping. Ha. How naïve do they think we are? A single piece of the Millennium necklace sat near Yuugi's hand. The whole item had been shattered with the pieces scattered here and there; the pharaoh's mind was now lost without it. He could not exist without the puzzle being whole, like his pitiful mind. The two could not live without their soul mate, anyway. Both gone, now. How sad.
I leaned steadily closer to the body. With my index finger, I lightly drew a line above the slit cut on Yuugi's abdomen. A dagger had carved a long, deep gash along his perfect stomach. Blood trickled down his ribs and onto the carpet. He looked like he had been gutted. I reached my hand down into my pocket and gently fingered a piece. A man broke my thought. I had to move as they placed a blanket over the corpse. Blood seeped through the cotton as the cover was rested on his stomach.
Restraining myself from glaring, I strolled over to the corner of the room. A simple desk and laptop sat modestly to the side. There was something curious on the computer screen. I reached down and clicked the arrow on an icon labeled, "Ryou." An email popped up. Yuugi had sent a message to my aibo saying that they had 'fun last night'. I gritted my teeth hard and closed the laptop's lid. Don't worry, it's been fixed, I assured myself.
Jounouchi slammed open the apartment's front door. He had a mix of anger and sadness on his face. A policeman or two turned around to see what was happening. Jouno decided to approach me first, "What happened!?" He sounded furious, but he reeked of fear.
I kept my face perfectly still. "I don't know," I told him while shaking my head slightly. He stomped away and demanded that people tell him who kill his boyfriend. The poor fool. I rolled my eyes. It was time to leave. The hall was empty outside the room. I dug out the golden piece from my pocket that I had touched before. The Millennium puzzle chunk shone under the hall's fluorescent lights. It was insurance, a guarantee and reminder that my problem had been fixed. I headed to the elevator and pressed the ground floor button. I could not help but smirk.
Ryou was sprawled across his bed while reading a book. I slipped in and pounced on the unsuspecting boy. He recoiled and tried to push me off him. I grabbed a blanket and lassoed him as he tried to escape. We became a scramble mass laughing our heads off as we bit ate each other's ears and kissed. It lasted for hours. Ryou became exhausted and tried to ask between pants, "How ... was ... your day?"
I smiled devilishly and replied, "Great."
"Did you see Yuugi?"
"Umm, no. Not today. I think he went on vacation or something."
"That's fine, I guess I shouldn't try calling him." Ryou rolled over and kissed my nose. I jumped again. We whirled onto the floor. Ryou put his foot on my chest and pushed me away. "I think I need to call Jouno."
"Naw," I protested. "It's almost midnight and he's probably asleep. Plus, I saw him today and he was fine."
"Okay, but why don't you go sleep in your bed."
"I like your bed," I answered wickedly. Ryou shook his head and turned off the light. He lied down next to me. I ran my fingers through his hair. Life was great. My problems were all gone. Ryou wass mine now. And, Yuugi was so easy to kill.
