A/N: Re-upload from previous account.
I wrote this little one shot. I wrote this a while ago when I was in Ryo's situation and Ryo's feelings are basically my own. Not too sure about it but here we go!
Disclaimer: No I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh. And I'm not getting any money writing this.
Ryo hugged himself tightly as he knelt on his bedroom floor. He wouldn't let the tears flow, he just wouldn't! Bakura left over a week ago now. He hadn't felt like he did now in days. He thought he was getting over it.
Apparently he wasn't.
Apart from the usual feelings being dumped brought; the rejection, the heartbreak, endless aching, useless pining and pointless wishing, Bakura's recent total blanking of Ryo had begun to sting deep. At first Bakura still kept in touch. Still visited the broken Ryo. Ryo's scary change of emotions and occasional out of characterness concerned Bakura. He could be fine one moment and the next he was using the wall to smash up a photo frame of happier times.
Then Malik arrived.
When Ryo found out, he wasn't hurt because it was somebody new. It hurt because it was within the first few days of the break up. Ryo couldn't understand it. How could he move on so quickly? Did Bakura really not care for him? Did he ever really care? Was he so easy to get over? All night Ryo asked these and similar questions. The conversations between the two seemed to just stop. Ryo had received a few offline instant messages promising things like Bakura just popping round later in the day. But he never showed up. Ryo tried to maintain a friendship, why wasn't Bakura caring? Why wasn't Bakura replying? Had the friends promise been a lie?
Feelings swirled around in Ryo. It confused him so much. He wanted to cry. But he couldn't. He hated Bakura, but he wanted to talk to him. Ryo grasped his head in his hands and pulled on his long white hair a little. He wanted Bakura to stop plaguing his thoughts! Why did he always creep up? Why was he always on his mind? It was obvious Bakura didn't feel the same. It wasn't fair! How could Bakura move on, forget all they had so easily when Ryo was left alone to be tormented by the past?
A part of Ryo wanted Bakura to feel just as much hurt and confusion as he had dragged Ryo through. Ryo was not a vindictive character, but Bakura completely blanking him out hurt him deep and awakened something within his subconscious that wanted justice. He wanted to scream and shout at Bakura. He wanted to hurt him. He just wanted him to realise exactly what Bakura was doing to him.
But his other half, his rational, innocent side wanted to forget the pain. To forget the hurt the white haired demon had inflicted on him and start again. To just sit and laugh like the good friends they had been and Ryo knew they could be.
But all this just brought the hurt and questions back to the front of his mind.
Why Bakura? I am alone. You are not. Why Bakura? I hurt. You do not. Why Bakura? I still care. You do not.
Why don't you care Bakura?
