A/N: Thanks to everyone for reviewing my last part. I really appreciate it.
Well I'll just get on with this cause I can't seem to think of much to say.
Oh and this is the part where I figured out the title of this fic.

Lonely Part 4
"You like it?" he asked thrilled. Duo nodded unable to speak because his mouth as full. "Hear that Kumagorou? He likes 'em!" He sat the pink bunny on the table. Duo arched an eyebrow.
"Are you insane?" he asked looking from Ryuichi to the pink plushy and back again. He stuffed some more pancakes in his mouth. Ryuichi smiled sadly.
"Nope…I just get lonely sometimes and talk to Kumagorou…He my company…" Duo's mouth hung open and the piece of pancake fell off the fork. He didn't know what to say.
"What?!" Ryuichi asked blushing. Duo's expression softened.
"…Its just…I know exactly how you feel. I just wish I had some…thing to talk to like you…"
"You can borrow Kumagorou if you want" Ryuichi said smiling sweetly "…But you can't keep him" Duo grinned at him.
"I might just take you up on that offer…so what are you up to today?" Ryuichi looked thoughtful.
"Well I s'pose I'll head down to the studio to listen to Bad Luck rehearsing, then maybe the two of us could do something?" Duo nodded eagerly.
"Could I come to the studio too?" he asked. Ryuichi nodded. "I'll just change" Ryuichi smiled cheekily.
"You could wear that…I wouldn't mind" Duo blushed and finished eating. He changed into one of his black outfits because his new clothes were bloodstained.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"That's too black" Ryuichi stated "C'mon…we can get you something from my wardrobe" He caught Duo's hand and pulled him into his room.
"How's your side?"
"Sore" Duo confessed. Ryuichi had a walk-in wardrobe. Duo gasped when he saw all the clothes.
"Now let's see…" he searched through the clothes until he found what he was looking for. He pulled out a pair of three-quarter length blue pants. Then he got a white skintight tanktop. He rummaged around until he found his short-sleeved shirt with vertical blue and while stripes. He rooted in one of the lower drawers and tossed out a pair of trainers.
"Put the pants on first 'till I see if it suits you" He turned his back to Duo and waited for him to change. When Duo was ready he turned back around.
"That's perfect!" he exclaimed "Now I'll help you with the tops cause you'll only hurt your side again." Duo blushed but let him help. Ryuichi pulled off the red top carefully and helped him with the white one. Then he put the shirt over it. He stood back to admire his work.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's missing something" he said, "Wait a sec. I know!" He grabbed a baseball cap off one of the shelves and put it on Duo.
"There! You look gorgeous Duo!" he grinned. Duo blushed and looked at his reflection in the mirror…he had to admit, he looked great!
"C'mon we'd better go; they'll be starting soon" he grabbed Duo's hand dragging him along behind him. Duo grabbed his bag with his laptop before leaving. Ryuichi chauffeur drove them to the studio. Ryuichi strolled in; Duo stopped as soon as they got in.
"Can we rest a sec…my side is killing me!" Ryuichi led Duo to a nearby seat.
"Are you alright? Is it really bad? Should I call a doctor?" he said quickly sitting down beside Duo.
"No…I just need to sit down…" he groaned quietly "I could really use some strong painkillers right about now…" He leaned back closing his eyes.
"Will I try to find some?" Ryuichi asked anxiously.
"No it's alright Ryuichi…it'll pass in a minute…"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ryuichi felt like crying Duo was so pale and he was obviously in pain yet he wouldn't let him help.
"I know!" he ran to the reception and picked up the phone. He was put through to the studio where K was working with Bad Luck. Within minutes K ran down the stairs. He saw Ryuichi seated next to Duo.
"Ryuichi, what is so urgent that you had to interrupt my rehearsals" Ryuichi looked at him through tear-filled eyes.
"Don't be mad K-san…Duo hurts bad and Kumagorou and I can't help." K's expression softened.
"Duo what's wrong? Does your side hurt?" he asked leaning in front of Duo. Duo's eyes fluttered open.
"Yeah…would you be able to get some painkillers for me? My gut finally seems to have realized it had a knife stuck in it…" K nodded quickly.
"I'll be back in a second" He ran out of the studio. Ryuichi placed Kumagorou in Duo's arms. Duo smiled, he reached out, caught Ryuichi's hand and squeezed it gently.
"Don't worry Ryu-chan, I'll be okay…don't get so upset. I'm not worth it…" Ryuichi gasped, flinging his arms around Duo still careful not to hurt him.
"You are worth it Duo…you are…Don't say that!" he sobbed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Duo raised a hand gently wiping a tear from Ryuichi's face. Ryuchi sniffled.
"What do you think Kumagorou?" Duo said, "Kumagorou says you should cheer up and smile cause tears don't suit your pretty face" He leaned closer to Ryuichi. "I added the 'pretty' part myself he whispered with a wink. Ryuichi giggled giving Duo a watery smile. Duo groaned as the movement caused him intense pain. Luckily K returned just then with the painkillers. He was panting.
"I suggest that after the rehearsals, you take Duo to a doctor and get a prescription." Ryuichi nodded in agreement. Duo took two of the tablets and gave them a moment to kick in. He stood up slowly. The pain had diminished greatly but was still very much there.
"Can we come up with you K?" Ryuichi pleaded.
"Yeah sure" K grunted. The two followed him into the studio. The band was waiting patiently for K to return. Ryuichi bounded into the studio.
"Ohayo Shu-chan!" he grinned. He spent a moment talking to Shuichi. Duo leaned against the wall holding Kumagorou and trying to stay unnoticed.

Well I hope you liked this part. Isn't Ryuichi so cute?? Next chapter Duo gets a very strange reaction to the painkillers i.e. He goes all giggly and reveals some things which he shouldn't…heh heh…much silliness to come. But until then,
