Light flooded the dark room as Yugi opened the door. "Hey, Ryou! Where are you." he called, Yugi thought he heard something. He turned towards the couch and saw the hunched figure of Ryou. He was shaking slightly as he cried.
"Ryou?" asked Yugi hesitantly. He came to sit besides Ryou and laid a hand on his shoulder "Ryou? What is it?" Ryou looked up, his face tearstained and red. The state his friend was in, although it shocked him, did not stop Yugi from noticing the ugly purple bruise that was beginning to form on the side of Ryou's face. Yugi touched it softly, hastily withdrawing his hand as Ryou winced in pain.
"Who? Who did this to you Ryou?" Ryou turned away as he started to cry even harder. "Tell me Ryou. You know you can trust me." pleaded Yugi, it hurt him to see his friend in so much pain. "I can't." whispered Ryou, his pain and grief obvious in his voice. He buried his head in his arms and gave in to the despair that was filling him. Yugi saw that he could do nothing to help Ryou right now and left to make some tea.

Bakura wandered the streets of Domino without purpose. The words of his hikari kept running through his mind, "I don't hate you, I love you." over and over. How could he love me? thought Bakura after all the times he had hurt Ryou the idea that he could still love him was... unthinkable.
Trying to sort out Ryou's words he did not see the approaching figure despite his colorful hair.
"Hello, Bakura. What are you doing out?"
Bakura looked up hoping to not see what he thought he was about to see. Oh how lovely, it's Yami he thought disdainfully.
"Just walking." he said evasively, trying to walk around Yami. But Yami just moved to block his way. "Really? Bakura, do you know what kept Ryou from making it to the game shop today? He was going to help us restock the shelves."
Damn it he must have passed out thought Bakura angrily but his face was calm "No, I left before he was awake." "Really? Well then I guess I'll be seeing you Bakura." he didn't seem convinced but he moved to let Bakura pass.
Bakura stepped smoothly around him and waited until he had turned two corners before he began to run. Maybe he could make it home before any one else got to Ryou.
LS: First of all I'm sorry that the chapters keep getting unformatted if anyone can help me out I'd be really grateful.
Rachel: She computer illiterate and she has no idea what she's doing.
LS: That's not-
Rachel: *raises eyebrow*
LS: Okay it's true, thanks to all of you who have reveiwed so far. They make me feel all warm and happy inside, and warm and happy= more chapters.
