Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh. Sorry. Too tired to think of something good.
A/N: This is a challenge fic for Demonic Mistress Kree-kun. Unfortunately, it's nowhere near as good as her fic for me, "Rain Dance". Gah. I suck. But here it is! Hope you like...
His other doesn't know.
His other would be very angry if he did know.
But his other is obsessed with the Power and power, and his other doesn't know.
His other doesn't know how kind the blonde can be. How sweet and gentle and soothing and nice and perfect and so warm when they're snuggling together in the darkness.
Ryou doesn't like the darkness. It reminds him of his other.
Jounouchi doesn't like the darkness either. It reminds him of Yami no Malik. It reminds him of Mai. It reminds him too much of things that he has lost.
It makes him think of his sister. She doesn't know. She thinks he's still lonely and sad and pining over Mai.
He isn't pining over Mai. Mai is happy in Australia. Mai is happy.
He's happy too. At least, he is now.
Everything he wanted, wrapped up in pale, pale skin and shimmering white-silver hair.
So what if it isn't a girl? He's girly enough. And soft, so soft and willing and quiet.
So very, very quiet. He doesn't want to wake Ryou's other. He's very scared of Yami no Bakura.
Jounouchi likes to pretend he isn't scared.
But he is.
Ryou's other doesn't realize the depth of their relationship. If he did, he would never accept it.
Ryou is his property, his host, his toy.
If he knew...
Jounouchi would be dead. Or worse. Much, much worse.
He'd been to the Shadow Realm once before. He didn't want to go back. He doubted even Ryou could save him, if Bakura "awoke" and discovered them.
Then Ryou would be alone with his other again.
Ryou doesn't like his other. Ryou tried to love him, tried to see what Yugi and his other had. But he couldn't. He couldn't love his other. He wouldn't let him.
And there was Jounouchi anyway.
Ryou did love Jounouchi.
Which was why he knew Bakura would take him away.
Bakura couldn't stand it it someone else loved his omote.
Which was why Ryou's other didn't know.
Ryou's other couldn't ever know.
A/N: Holy cow, does this suck. Demonic Mistress Kree-kun, I apologize for the suckage. I just had to post something for you, even if it was crap, and if you want something happier or better I'll try to work on it. Consider this a temp peice, if you want. -.-
However, if you like it, of course, I planned it like this from the beginning. Sure. Right.
...is it bad when you don't actually remember writing something? Like... this entire story?
