"Hello my name is Bakura." Grace blushed. "My name is Grace Kyle." Replied Grace with a smile. Right after she said that the band began a slow song. "May I have this dance?" asked Bakura offering his hand to Grace. Grace simply nodded and took his hand. They walked to the dance floor.
Bakura's pov earlier.
"Marik! Hurry up!" yelled Bakura. He had just finished getting dressed and was waiting for Marik. "I'm coming! Just shut up!" shouted Marik from upstairs. Marik ran down the stair dressed for the ball. "Bakura, where is your mask?" asked Marik from behind his dark blue mask. Bakura simply took a silver mask from his pocket and put it on. "There, happy? Now let's go." Said Bakura walking out the door.
They entered the ballroom silently. "So where are the refreshments?" asked Marik to no one. Bakura just sighed and walked away. He was leaning against one of the columns when someone caught his eye. A girl with blonde hair pulled to one side. She wore a silver dress that fit her curves perfectly with a silver mask. Marik came up and looked where Bakura's gaze fell. "Are you staring at that girl over there?" asked Marik. "Shut up."Bakura said without moving his gaze. Marik then saw another girl talking to the girl Bakura was staring at. She wore a red dress that fit to her curves and wore a golden mask. Her auburn hair tumbled down her back.
Bakura watched her talk to a man with hair like his own. Damn she has a boyfriend. Bakura thought crestfallen. He watched the man blush and say something to the girl. The girl turned and ran off with tears streaming down her delicate face. Maybe he isn't her boyfriend. He thought. Marik came back from stalking the girl's friend. "What did I miss?" Marik asked watching the girl he stalked comfort her friend.
Ten minutes later the girl wiped the tears from her eyes and said something to her friend. She turned around and looked right at Bakura. He never looked away from her. "Come Marik. Let's go meet the girls" Bakura said walking off.
Marik's pov
The silence between Marik and the girl was broken by her speaking. "My name is Marie Thomas." She said with a smile. Marik flashed her a smile. "My name is Marik Ishtar. Would you like to dance?" Marie smiled. "Of course." With that said they walked to the dance floor.
Back to Grace's pov
She slowly wrapped her arms around his neck. He grabbed her waist. They swayed with the flow of the music. He looked into her ice-blue eyes. He seemed to get lost in her eyes. She also looked into his deep brown eyes. They were hypnotic. "So I noticed you were crying earlier." He said breaking Grace out of her trance. "Yeah I told Ryou I loved him. Guess it wasn't love." She said with a shrug. "And he rejected you?" Bakura stated. "Yeah but I am getting over it." Grace replied. There is something about Bakura. Grace thought. They continued to dance. Very slowly Grace laid her head on Bakura's chest.
When the song ended Bakura kissed Grace's head. Across the room Ryou had watched this action. It made his blood boil. That bastard. Ryou thought. He continued to watch Bakura lead Grace to the balcony.
Marie's pov
After the song Bakura and Grace danced to, another song came on. Marik was a really good dancer. "So why was your friend crying earlier?" asked Marik. Marie nodded her head toward Ryou. "You see that guy over there?" Marik nodded. "Grace told him she loved him. He rejected her and it broke her heart. She may seem fine now but that's just a protective shell she puts up till her heart is healed." Marie said. "So why does she seem happy with Bakura?" Marik asked. "Maybe he is healing the broken." Stated Marie.
