Chapter 4

If I lay here

If I just lay here

Would you lie with me

And just forget the world

Forget what we're told

Before we get to old

Show me a garden that's

Bursting into life


Bakura and Marik lay in bed almost all day, relishing the closeness of it. Bakura had gotten over his little upset and had allowed Marik to cuddle with him once more. The two just chatted, loving the tranquility that neither of them had ever been allowed to experience before.

"I remember the first time we met," Marik said, his head rested upon the albino's bare chest once more. " One of the first thing's you said to me was, 'I don't care.'" Marik does his best to imitate the stern, British accent of his companion.

Bakura simply laughs at his attempt, "Is that what you think I sound like?" His voice sounded happy, something everyone thought impossible. Something only Marik would ever hear.

"I'm not good with impersonations," Marik mumbled, his violet eyes looking into the twinkling ones of the spirit.

"I could have told you that," Bakura teased, tapping the tan boy gently on his nose.


The two had been dating behind closed doors for over a month. Out of the house, they were the same argumentative teens who everyone always wondered how they could live together. In doors though, they were like a honeymooning couple, always being sweet to each other in a way no one thought possible. Only a few people knew the truth behind their relationship.

Bakura's one friend, and the one person no one really expected to be his friend, was Seto Kaiba. The two didn't quite act like friends, but it was the closest thing either of them had to one. Kaiba knew immediately, easily being able to notice a slight change in Bakura's behavior.

The pharaoh and his hikari's little geek squad- as Bakura often reffered to it as- knew. Marik had insisted on trying to be friends with them after all his yami had put them through. Marik had deemed his relationship with the usually grumpy Brit the business of his 'friends.' Yugi, being the kind hearted person he was, congratulated the two. His yami had also, thinking that it would be better if the two had each other to stay occupied with instead of trying to destroy him. Anzu was, of course, freaking out, in a good way, though. Joey and Tristan hadn't reacted too well, having called the new couple a bunch of queers- even though Yugi and Yami were gay and in a relationship as well.

But none of that had phased Marik- Bakura was a completely different story. He had been plotting against the two guys, ready to seek revenge for every snide comment that they threw. But, he was also busy planning a surprise for Marik, so none of his plans were ever enacted.


Marik tugged gently at Bakura's hand that currently covered his eyes as the albino steered him toward and unknown destination. "'Kura, what is it?"

"You'll see," Bakura whispered while opening the sliding glass door near the kitchen. He stepped out, dragging Marik with him. He positioned In the center of his surprise. "You ready?"

"Yes," Marik replied impatiently, before he gasped as Bakura removed his hand. Marik stood in the middle of a gazebo, little lights twinkling around where someone had hung them up. "It-It's beautiful."

There were many different types of plants surrounding the gazebo: peones of every color, roses, and even a little fruit and vegetable garden. Marik's favorite was the pink cherry blossom tree to the right of the gazebo. It added a touch of color that not even the rainbow assortment of flowers could. Marik felt tears coming to his eyes as he marvelled at just how amazing- and sneaky- HIS ex-thief king was.

Bakura wrapped his arms around Marik's waist, pulling him to his chest. Marik wrapped his arms around his boyfriend's neck, pulling him down for a passionate thank you kiss. The two parted and stayed there, memorizing the moment.

"QUEERS!" An unknown voice yelled before the two were consumed in a bright light. Their little garden of Eden was being burnt by hatred and jealousy. And the two were inside the flames.


A/N- IF you guys review, I'll try and post chapter 5 later. But, then you guys will probably be in worse suspense. Anyways, who do you think set their little garden of Eden on fire? And, I'm amazed I could make it this person, because I am like this persons biggest fan EVER! Anyways-
