RYOU: The Next Morning

I could see the sun and hear the birds outside my window there was a gentle knock on the door. I looked up to see one of the people that had stolen my
heart without even knowing it. The beautiful Egyptian prince known as Malik Ishtar. When he saw that I was awake he came in and walked over to sit next to me.

I got lost in his oh-so beautiful lavender eyes until I realized he was talking to me. "Ryou, are you feeling better?" he asked and I could see the worry
in his eyes, much like the worry in Bakura's eyes. It made me feel guilty for doing this to them. The problem was that I tried to start eating again, but it
hurt. That was when I finally realized that I
couldn't control it anymore and that just made me not want to even try to eat.
I don't know what hurts more, eating or not eating, but I'm tired of all this pain.

"Yes.", I mumbled, and looked away. I hate to lie and I'm awful at it." Are you sure?" he questioned softly. No, I'm not sure, but I can't tell him that.
If only he would guess. Please guess, Malik Please save me from all this pain!

My eyes start feeling with tears, and I can't help but to leaned into his chest and just start crying
my heart.

MALIK:

I was shocked that he just fell against me and started sobbing. I could tell that he was in real pain. But he won't tell any of us what's wrong, not even Bakura.

I softly rubbed small circles on his back," Oh Ryou, what's wrong with you? Please tell me, I'm begging you to tell me. Maybe I can help you." All I heard him say in reply was," No."

"What do you mean no? You don't know if I can of can't help until you tell me what's wrong!" He just buried his face against my neck and mumbled," You and Marik
will hate me and Bakura will get made if I tell you the truth."

I was silent for a few moments, thinking about what it could be. Ryou was quiet against me, his breathing beginning to smooth out. Finally I spoke," I don't knew what you could have done to make me or Marik hate you, and you know that Bakura could never really get made at you. I don't think any of us could."

I looked down at him and realized that he had fallen asleep again, so I gently laid him down and left the room to talk to the others.

When I walked in I was met with the sight of my yami licking and kissing down the back of Bakura's neck and thrusting his hard member into the little opening in Bakura's sexy ass. Man are they hot when
they go at it doggy style. They hadn't noticed me yet so I just climbed into the bed and gave a little help to Bakura's obvious need. After we were done we collapsed
onto the bed I pulled the blankets up and snuggled into them, glad that it was summer. The last thought in my mind was of Ryou and the pained sobs from
earlier. I fell asleep feeling safe in the loving arms of my lovers.

RYOU:

I woke up and was in terrible pain. My stomach and chest hurt so bad I could hardly breath, so I got out of bed and stumbled my way into the hall. I tried to
make it to my yami's room but wound up collapsing and
knocking a very expensive vase over.

I'm so scared. I can't breath. My chest won't let the air in my lungs. I don't know what to do; all I know is that I want my yami.

BAKURA:

I heard a crash in the hall and got up quick, Malik and Marik right on my heels. We threw on some boxers and ran into the hall. What I saw made my heart stop.

On the floor was Ryou covered in cuts with glass all around him. I ran over to him, not caring about the glass and knelt next to him.
He looked up at me and whispered that he couldn't breath and that he was scared.
I told Marik to call 911 and Malik came over to us.
He fell to his own knees and started to cry.

I held my hikari in my arms and tried to keep him awake until the medics came. His breathing was shallow and just the sight of him gasping for air was
making my own chest hurt. When the medics got there Ryou had passed out.
I think what scared me most of all though was when the medics lifted up Ryou's shirt
and all I saw was bone. I heard Marik cry out my name, but it was very distant.
Then everything went black.
