Chapter 1 Before the Storm
()
It's a beautiful spring day that's better than and other. 'Course, March was always beautiful during it's early days. Then again, Domino was always beautiful in spring. Today's natural beauty of spring is magnified ten-fold in the eyes of a certain white-haired bishonen, Ryou, who is currently walking to school with a slight limp. The night before, Ryou took the next step in his relationship with his yami, Bakura. It was their two year anniversary of Bakura being nice to his light and their one year anniversary of being a couple. Up until last night, their relationship hadn't gone any farther than heated make-out sessions. Ryou wanted to wait until he was ready for that next step in his relationship with Bakura. Bakura completely understood and waited on Ryou, even though he wanted to ravish his light right then and there. He didn't want to frighten Ryou away. He didn't want to rape the poor boy, Bakura's above that.
On their anniversary, Bakura took Ryou out to his favorite restaurant. Bakura had made reservations a month back. After dinner, the two went to a well-known club and danced till they could dance no more. When they got back home it was close to midnight. Bakura led Ryou up to their room and surprised his hikari with a small silver kitten with black stripes across her back. Ryou was so happy he wanted to give Bakura something in return, and did the only thing he knew Bakura would truly enjoy. They made love until in the wee hours of the night they fell asleep.
This is why Ryou is now limping down the halls of Domino High School. Bags under his eyes from lack of sleep, a bottle of painkillers in his pocket, and tired as all get out. Smiling so brightly he didn't even notice the pain that still lingered. Not caring that he was a bit late. He wouldn't get detention because he was a good kid and this was his first tardy. Handing his homeroom teacher his pass, he sat down with his friends in the back, next to his best friend, and fellow hikari, Malik. They, of course, all noticed that Ryou's smile was brighter today than yesterday.
"Why so cheerful today Ryou?" Yugi asked after the teacher left the classroom, not much was done in homeroom.
Ryou shrugged lying to his friends, "Had time to myself last night is all."
Malik noticed this, but didn't say anything. He'll confront Ryou later.
"You look tired Ryou. What did you do?" Tea asked, sitting opposite Yugi.
"Really? Huh. Must have stayed up longer then I thought." Ryou answered with a fake thoughtful look on his face.
"Oh? Wha' were ya doin' las' night Ryou?" Joey asked from his seat in front of Ryou's.
Ryou shrugged again, still lying to his friends, " Watched some movies once I was done with my homework." After that they talked about other things. Duel Monsters, new games coming out, and any new tournaments. Things like that.
Malik was silent for the most part because he was observing Ryou. 'He lied to them, but why? Is he protecting Bakura or some...wait a minute. Ryou hasn't told the others about his relationship with the Thief. And if I recall correctly, last night was their one-year anniversary of being a couple. So that would mean...' Malik thought as his expression changed from contemplating to devious.
Ryou and the others never noticed.

When the bell rang to change classes, everyone got up to leave. Malik took hold of Ryou's arm and asked, "Can I talk to you for a minute?" Looking back at the lingering group he added, "Privately?"
Seeing the devious glint in Malik's eyes, Ryou nodded and followed Malik to the back corner of the room. Once they were out of earshot, Malik turned to Ryou and got serious.
"Why don't you tell me the truth Ryou? I'm surprised that your lies fooled them, but I know you better now don't I?"
For a moment Ryou was shocked, forgetting that Malik knew about the Ring's owners relationship. A second later, Ryou remembered and blushed bright red with embarrassment.
Seeing that his best friend was too embarrassed to talk, Malik took the inciative, "Nod if I get this right Ryou. Last night was your one year anniversary with Bakura correct?"
Ryou nodded.
"Dinner, movie, and a surprise gift from Bakura correct?"
Ryou nodded again, still bright red, not saying a word.
"And judging by your slight limp, I'd say you and Bakura fucked all night."
Ryou's blush got brighter, because of Malik's straightforward guess he nodded anyway.
"You don't have to be so embarrassed Ryou. It's just me."
"I know. I can't help it. Last night was my first time at...well...you know."
Malik was shocked but before he could say anything more the warning bell rang, snapping Ryou out of his embarrassment.
"Oh no! I'll be late again!" Ryou exclaimed as he gathered up his stuff and hurried out of the classroom with Malik at his heels.
"I'll see you at lunch Ryou. Under the maple tree." Malik called as he entered his classroom.
"Okay Malik! See ya!" Ryou called as he continued down the hallway to his next class.
