ENJOY!

THIS CHAPTER HAS BEEN EDITED

And so it has been since that night.
When Marik had found them, unclothed and cold in his sister's bed, Kura had acted without a second thought, pushing Marik out the room and locking the door, turning to Ryou, who was covering what was left of his dignity by hugging himself. Kura scowled at him before his eyes began scanning the floor. Then, he jumped in to action, pouncing about the room grabbing his clothes and pulling them on quickly. Whenever he came across something of Ryou's, he quickly chucked them at him. It took Ryou a little longer to set in to action but once everything had seeped in and the shock had worn off – and Kura had yelled rather nastily about him getting 'fucking moving' before he 'cut his bollocks off'- Ryou began to rush and tug his clothes on. He hadn't even done his shirt buttons up when Kura threaded one arm round his waist and lifted him up. He ran to the bedroom door, still carrying Ryou. He unlocked the door and burst through it, knocking a surprised Marik over in the process.

Kura had ran home, carrying a shocked Ryou the whole way. When they were back in Ryou's flat, they sat at the kitchen table, Ryou staring awkwardly at the cooker and Kura scowling at Ryou. It wasn't until that night when they spoke to each other. Death Note was on tele, a anime that intrigued both boys. Ryou had spent most of the day sitting around watching tele while Kura had been in and out the house all day. Ryou had laid around like a couch potato, watching everything that flashed upon the screen. Pokemon, Naruto, The Slayers, Code Geass, X, Soul Eater, Beelzebub… Anything and everything.
Death Note started at 8, and Kura had finally relaxed at home at 7. He had disappeared off to his room and remained there until 8, when he joined Ryou. Ryou was lying lazily on the sofa, taking up the whole thing. As soon as saw Bakura, he snuggled up in the corner of the sofa leaving two persons-worth of space for the other. Kura raised an eyebrow and said nothing. Instead, he slumped down on to the sofa and stared at the tele. They both remained like this until L and Light and the music were gone. An advert for Nyanpire played as Kura finally turned his head.

"I can't stand people who ignore" he smirked.
Ryou jumped slightly and looked at him and stuttered "I-I'm not ignoring you…"

"Then stop being a fucking mouse" Kura raised a lilac eyebrow
Ryou swallowed hard and bucked up his courage "I'm sorry. Okay?" he tried to sound a little threatening, but instead sounded desperate and hurt.

"Why?" asked Kura, sounding more curious then cruel
Ryou blinked at him. Unsure of an answer "Um… For what we did…"

"Oh!" Kura said, understanding, folding his arms "I'm not"

"You're not?"

"No, why would I be? I'm not apologising for doing what I want! Go to hell!"

Ryou looked at the floor. What was Kura saying? Was he saying he used Ryou for sex?

"I'm not your voodoo doll…" Ryou mumble, eyes to the wooden planks.

Kura frowned at him "I never said you were"

"You didn't say" Ryou said harshly "You implied it with your action"

"No I didn't? I would of thought the fact I made love to you would have seen it as some sort proof that I have 'feelings' and that 'I'm good deep down' and all that shit" Kura scoffed

Ryou's head shot up from the floor "Made love?" he repeated in a whispered of surprise.

"Well isn't that what sexual intercourse is called now-a-days when you have sex with someone you love or have feelings for?" Kura looked at Ryou seriously.

Ryou looked at Kura quizzically.
This was so out of character. Kura could often be blunt with his words and opinions, but they were often nasty. These were beautiful words and opinions, ones that made Ryou feel safe and loved at the sound of them leaving Bakura's lips

"Yes…" Ryou whispered delicately "Yes it is…"

Silence returned awkwardly. Ryou stared at floor again while Kura daydreamed, eyes on the tele. Ryou took a quiet deep breath before edging closer to Kura. He paused and waited for Kura to question why he was getting closer, but none came. He moved even closer, considering leaning on him slightly, but this idea was interrupted when Kura put his arm round Ryou and gently pulled him close. Ryou was surprised at this move, but it didn't take long for him to get comfortable in Bakura's strong arms.

This is how they came to be together, and the official start of their strange story.

Their relationship was a simply one, Ryou went to school while Kura spray painted the town walls, Ryou came home and did homework while Kura napped, Ryou made dinner and Kura watched and gave the odd comment, Ryou watched Gravitation while Kura phoned Marik and planned that night, Ryou went to bed at 10 and Kura joined him at half past, they had sex, Ryou fell asleep and Kura went out with Marik and came home at 5 in the morning.
It was a simply routine which they loved, it was perfect.

Of course, nothing stays perfect for long…

One month into their relationship, Ryou started to feel ill and uncomfortable around his hips. A week later a new thing was added to their routine. Kura went out with Marik and came home at 5, Ryou woke up at half 5 and began spilling his guts in the nearest container. Bakura found this weird, but didn't think much of it, telling Ryou there was nothing to worry about. Kura became very angry when Ryou mentioned he might go to the doctors. He refused to allow this happen, announcing that he didn't want anyone touching his property. Ryou yelled at Kura was referring to him as 'property' but after a very loud, deep conversation, Ryou gave in to Kura and said he wouldn't go, and ended up having a two hour make-up sex session.

"He's really protective of me!" Ryou whined to Yugi Muto, his best friend since he came to Domino. The two boys were sitting in class, alone. It was break time, and everyone was either in the canteen or outside.

"Yami is the same!" Yugi laughed fondly, referring to the boy who had once shared his body only to have the same thing happen as Bakura and Ryou- their own bodies on the same terms.

"Really? I can see that, but I bet Yami would let you go to the hospital if you really needed it…" Ryou sighed

"Nope!"

Ryou blinked at his friend "Yami wouldn't let you book a doctor's appointment?"

"Nope. You have to understand Ryou, that back in ancient Egypt, a doctor just used the millennium items to heal or diagnose Yami, while the same things for Bakura were done with magic and potions and remedies." Yugi closed his maths book and stuffed it in his rucksack "Yami thinks all these machines are over the top and dangerous, and I bet Kura thinks the same"

Ryou nodded to show he understood and yet out a heavy breath "I really need the hospital though… I think something is really wrong with me…"

"What are you symptoms?" Asked Yugi

"Erm… I keep throwing up in the morning and at night, I have aching pains in my hips and spine and I've fainted twice"

Yugi raised an eyebrow "Maybe it's just became you and Kura haven't been close enough? Your connections are probably causing it…"

"Oh, believe me, we're closer than ever…" Ryou giggled.

Yugi gasped and smile "You and Kura are like…" he whispered, trailing off, unsure what to say.

"Like you and Yami? Yes"

Yugi beamed at him happily, before that smile dropped.

"Ryou can asked you something personal?" he asked worriedly

"Sure I guess…"

"Have you and Bakura, you know… Done stuff"

"Yeah" Ryou nodded, biting his lip

"Have you gone, like, all the way?"

"Yes, why?"

"Did Kura…" Yugi ignored his question "Did he wear his item when you did it?"

"When you say item do you mean the ring or a condom?"

"Let's go with both"

"He never takes the ring off, and I think we've only done it without a condom once, but I was so drunk I can't really be sure if he did not…" Ryou gave Yugi a confused look.

Yugi's eyes grew "Ryou, I think I might know what's wrong… and you won't like it…" Yugi hung his head "Kura defiantly won't like it"

"What is it?" Ryou asked, staying calm but panicking in side.

"I think you might be, um, pregnant…"

"Yugi, I know I have long hair and big eyes but I can promise you I'm a boy…"

"You don't have to be a girl" Yugi said quickly "The millennium items see sex as simply reproduction, so they times the chance of conceiving by three. If they can't find any system or if they find one that is damaged, they create a new one."

Ryou stared at him "Please tell me this is a joke"

"I'm not… Maybe you should, um, buy a test after school?"

"A test? And if it says I am, what am I going to tell Kura?" Ryou was panicking badly now, getting up from his seat and feeling hot and trapped. Yugi got up from his own seat and placed his hands on Ryou's quivering shoulders.

"Just tell him. I'm sure it'll be fine…"

Ryou had tried to calm down after Yugi said that, and held back frightened tears. Why shouldn't he cry though? Wasn't he a girl now, by some opinions? Time to hit the stereotypes full on!

Ryou had done what Yugi had advised that day. He bought a test, cheek erubesent the whole time he was in the shop. He speeded home, teeth gritted and head held high. He had been welcomed by Kura, who was sitting in the kitchen eating a bacon sandwich and writing some kind of list, but Ryou ran right past him, ignoring his welcome, and headed to the bathroom. He locked the door and leaned against it, catching his breath. He rubbed his eyes and tried to relax.

"Ryou" called Kura from the other side "Why so skittish?"

"I'm fine" Ryou called back "Just needed to pee super bad"

Kura tittered from the other side, followed by the footsteps of him walking away.
Ryou took a deep breath and did what he had to do…

Kura went back to the kitchen and finished his sandwich and list of places he and Marik would steal from for the next 2 weeks. He had just about finished this list went he heard Ryou's frantic scream.

"Ryou?" he called worriedly, getting up from his seat and rushing to the bathroom. By the time he reached the door, Ryou was screaming the word 'no' over and over.

"Ryou what's wrong? Get the fuck out here, you're giving me a head ache!" Kura ordered, yelling over Ryou's cries.

Ryou rushed out the door and into Kura's arms and sobbed. Kura planted a kiss on Ryou's head and whispered his question of 'what's wrong' in Ryou's ear. That's when he noticed that Ryou had a tight grip on a strange white object. Kura frowned and snatched the thing from Ryou's grip and looked at it curiously. Ryou gasped and stared in horror. Kura on the other hand just stared at the stick.

"Is this what you we're screaming over?" he asked.
Ryou nodded, shaking slightly.
"Why were you screaming over a thermometer?"

Ryou blinked at him and let his mouth drop open in surprise. Sometimes he really did forget Bakura was from Ancient Egypt.
"Kura… That isn't thermome-"

"Why is there a plus sign on it? Does that mean your temperature is really high?"

"It's not a thermometer" Ryou repeated flatly.

"What is it then?"

Ryou gulped "It's a pregnancy test?"

It was Kura's turn to blink in alarn. He stared at the test and then at Ryou.
"It's true. It happened because-" Ryou began to explain, only to be interrupted by Kura
"I know why" Kura said roughly "Now, I want you to go outside to the stair case…. And I want you to let yourself fall down them head first"

"KURA!" exclaimed Ryou "What are you saying?" he bit his lip in worry
"Get rid of it" Bakura ordered, dropping the test on the floor and slowly walking away.
"Kura-"
"Shut up, Ryou"

Ryou just stood there, mouth gaping, unsure of what to say in reply. What was he going to do? Ryou ran after Kura, pleading desperately for forgiveness, dropping to his knees and hugging Kura's waist. Kura just watched him sob for a good ten minutes before stroking his head kindly.

"Stop crying and get up." Kura told him grouchily.
Ryou sniffed and stood up. "Kura" he began with a trembling lip "I'm scared… Plus don't make go down the stair case…" Ryou began to cry again ad Kura wrapped his arms round him, kissing his forehead. Ryou put his head on Kura's bony shoulder.
"I won't, that wouldn't be much fun, since if I do kill you I want to do it myself and with a lot of blood. Even so, Ryou…" he placed his hand under Ryou's chin and made him look up at him "We're not keeping it."

A tear ran down Ryou's ruby cheek sadly,

"Abortion, Ryou. We'll go to a clinic, say you are a woman and get an abortion tablet" Kura told him gently. "Everything will be fine, I know it will be"

"How come you know what an abortion tablet is, but have no idea what a pregnancy test looks like?"

They hugged for a while, Ryou sobbing into Kura's stripped shirt. Ryou already felt awful about the whole idea, taking a life so selfishly. Bakura, on the other hand, felt nothing. He didn't feel bad, he didn't feel good, he just felt nothing. He felt numb, he didn't care.

The next day, the morning went by the normal routine. Ryou went to school, and Kura went out with Marik, who was bunking off that day. Ryou and Yugi spent break alone in the classroom again. Ryou told Yugi everything, from going to the store and buying the text to crying in Kura's arms. Yugi pointed out to Ryou that it wasn't just Bakura's choice on what they did next, it was his too, and mostly his since it was his body. The mint haired boy sighed sadly and told his friend that he actually agreed with Kura and wanted to get rid of it but he felt so evil about it. He couldn't keep it, he was only 16! He could exactly keep it- his whole life plan would go down the toilet.
Ryou spent his school day in misery, unable to focus and holding back tears of guilt.

Kura was mostly his normal self, until Marik bought the subject of Ryou and Bakura told him everything. Marik was alarmed about the subject, but did high five Kura for the fact that his 'balls worked'. Bakura joked about with Marik, while drawing an inappropriate graffiti of a naked woman.

After school, Bakura waited outside the school for Ryou, much to his surprise. The two had walked slowly up to town and to the clinic. Outside the building, Ryou froze, turned white and gave Bakura a miserable look. Kura had been supportive, and done most of the talking, playing the kind boyfriend the whole time, something Ryou really needed…

Chapter two guys! Chapter three up soon!
