^-^ A couple of you got the right answer to what movie name I used. So, I'm going to dedicated a chapter to each of you. -bows-

This chapter is dedicated to: Fallin-Alone-Scared-Lost

Mini-story for the readers.

Her mind spun in circles, just like a ballerina's dance.
She stared at the rusty razor, wondering why she ever started.
Words and thoughts flowed through her, taunting her, reminding her of the pain she felt.
She picked up the razor, kissed it with her lips, and sunk it into her skin.
She would never forget the words of her peers, nor the words of her parents

The end was drawing near, if only she knew.

If you know someone who needs help, don't hesitate. Tell someone. That person may come to hate you, but in the end, it can help them so much. So please, tell a parent, or someone at school. Don't keep it inside, because if you do, you aren't a real friend.

Reluctantly, both Bakura and Ryou left their friends house to head for home. The short walk was made in silence, neither wanting to ruin the good mood with bad thoughts. However, both were facing inner turmoil, with the thought of what may lay ahead of them when they finally reached home. Bakura had his arm around Ryou's waist, and Ryou had his head on Bakura's shoulder.

"'Kura? Do you think my father being home for so long will ruin our relationship?" Bakura stopped walking and looked down at his hikari.

"What doesn't kill us, will make us stronger." Ryou sighed at Bakura's words.

"Yami, besides the fact that was sweet, it's a cliche, and not always true." As Ryou spoke, Bakura hugged him as close as he could.

"I'm sorry. But I don't know what to tell you. I have the faith that we do this. Two halves of a whole can't just leave each other babe. And, honestly, to think that the old fuck could actually harm either of us is laughable. I'd send his ass to the shadow realm before he even knew what was happening." Bakura's face twisted in a sneer as he finished talking. Ryou giggled lightly and kissed Bakura.

"I love you." Ryou whispered. Bakura smiled down at him, and they began walking again. As they walked, Bakura tightened his arm around Ryou's waist. They continued to walk until they were a block or so away from their house. Both slowed to a stop, and shared a kiss before Bakura disappeared into the ring, and Ryou walked the rest of the way alone. He wasn't sure what to expect from his father when he got home, and he was a little fearful. Stepping up to the front door, he slowly opened it, and walked in.

"Dad? I'm home...I'm sorry I was gone for so long, but I have a test tomorrow, and Malik's really good in the subject, so he offered to help me......Dad?" Ryou looked around when his father didn't respond to him. He walked into the kitchen, but Yaten wasn't there. He checked every other room, and came to the reailzation his father wasn't even in the house. He felt Bakura slowly begin to rage inside, and he himself wasn't particularly happy. Yaten had acted as if he was waiting for Ryou to get home. He went back into the kitchen and saw a letter on the fridge, that he missed on his first look through.

Ryou,

Make dinner. I went out with some old friends of mine to catch up. I don't know when I'll be back. Don't wait up, be in bed by a resonable time, and I'll possibly see you before you go to school.

-Dad

Bakura came out of the ring to stand next to Ryou, and took the note from Ryou.

"That motherfucker told you to come home, to only leave you a note, telling you to make dinner, and to say he was going out? Wow, that's fucking bull." Bakura growled, and although Ryou normally hated it when Bakura swore, he couldn't help but agree. It was bullshit. "Oh well. Now we know we have the house to ourselves for a bit." Ryou snorted at the leer on Bakura's face.

"What do you want for dinner, Yami? I do have to make something, yanno? Dad did ask me to....." Ryou walked over to the fridge, opened it, and peered inside. He scrunched up his nose at the lack of food, and made a mental note to go shopping tomorrow. He closed the door, and settled on ordering a pizza. He called Jack and Jill's Pizzeria from downtown. Over the past month, he'd called there a lot....Bakura had a way of making him burn the food he was cooking. After ordering a large cheese and pepperoni pizza, Ryou and Bakura curled up on the couch together.

"Wanna watch a movie after the pizza gets here?" Ryou said, looking up at Bakura.

"Sure. What though?" Bakura kissed the top of Ryou's head after he replied.

"Well, I heard some girls at school talking about some movie on T.V. that they said was supposed to be good. So....can we watch that?" Ryou asked, hopefully.

"I suppose. Whats it called?" Bakura laughed at how cute his Hikari looked when he was trying to get his way.

"Affinity. I guess it's based off a book or something(1)...." Ryou trailed off, moving closer to Bakura. He was happy his dad wasn't home. Although he'd only been there for a day, he'd messed everything up. The two sat in a comfortable silence, waiting for the pizza to be delivered. When the doorbell rang, Bakura got up to pay for the pizza, and took it into the kitchen. Ryou followed, and they sat down to eat. Again, it was silent. The two never felt much need to fill the silence, both enjoying it.

When they finished, they put the leftover pizza in the fridge, and settled back in the living room, getting ready to watch the movie. They turned the T.V. on and searched for the movie. Luck was with them, as the movie was just about to air. Bakura turned it to to the channel, and pulled Ryou to him. They cuddled close as the movie began to play.

"...That was so sad.." Ryou sniffed as the movie ended. Bakura nodded his agreement, although this type of movie wasn't what he was really into, he enjoyed it. Ryou looked at a clock and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. It was later then he thought, and he did not want to be up when his father came home. "Come on Bakura. We should probably go to bed....I don't want to chance my dad coming home, and yelling at me for being up so late," Bakura rolled his eyes, but got up anyway.

They made their way to Ryou's room, and dressed in their pajamas. Bakura kissed Ryou's cheek, before leaving in a flash of light. Ryou smiled as he laid down, and then followed Bakura into the ring. When he opened his eyes, he was in his soul room, and Bakura was waiting for him. He walked over to the bed, and crawled over top of Bakura, kissing him on the lips.

"I love you." Ryou whispered.

"And I love you." Bakura whispered back. The two engaged in nightly activities(2) for the next hour or so, before collapsing on the bed in a heap, "Night Ry." Bakura said, kissing his hikari's sweat-shined forehead, before they both slipped into sleep,

Yaten stumbled into the dark house, obviously drunk. Grinning to himself, he made his way to the kitchen, hoping Ryou had indeed, made dinner. He left the light off, and went over to the fridge. He found a pizza box laying on one of the shelves.

"Imma have to tell that boy to stop wasting my money..." Yaten mumbled to himself before taking a piece. He made his way to the living room and sat down on the couch. Flicking the T.V. on, he nearly dropped his pizza. The channel the T.V. was on, was a LGBT station. "I knew if he spent time around those damn queers, something in his head would go wrong." Yaten growled, as he stared in the direction of his son's room. "Good thing I'm here now. I can help fix him." Yaten nodded to himself before changing the channel, and going back to eating. He felt confident he could help his son.

(1) Affinity is a real movie/book. I adored it. It's actually a lesbian movie, but still, it's amazing. The book is by Sarah Waters. If you aren't opposed to girl on girl....which I should hope not, seeing as you like guy on guy, you might like to check it out.

(2) ....If you don't know what I meant, which I'm sure everyone does, I meant they were having sex. I just felt that was a better way to word it.

Gah, I am soooooo damn sorry it's taking so long for this shit. I'm trying my hardest to keep up, but it's hard. Well, until next time kiddies!
