Sorry for the long wait, but I've been really busy with school, so I
haven't been able to write a new chapter in a while. But today I got out
early, and I have all of next week off, so expect a _lot_ of updates. ^_^
Thank you SO much to all my reviewers. I love you all to _death!_ You are like, just so wonderful! *kisses*
Just a reminder, this is NOT a fluffy fic, no matter _how_ much the last chapter seemed kinda fluffy. Just wanna remind people of that. Because within the next few chapters, this story is going to get a lot darker, and I just don't want people to be unprepared.
Disclaimer: I _still_ don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, no matter how much I wish I did. If I did, you just _know_ that I would have Ryou and Bakura hook up, Yugi and Yami hook up, and Seto and Jou. *sigh* I wanna own Yu-Gi-Oh (or even just Seto! ^_~ *wink wink nudge nudge*)

Chapter 5
I walk through the halls of my school as one in a daze. The people, the walls, the words, none of it exists to me. I am in my own world, and that is where I intend to stay. I need time to figure out what has happened. I need time to figure out if I want it to happen again.
I have never been kissed like that before in my life; kissed with that deep passion, deep hunger, deep need. The feeling seems vaguely familiar to me, but my mind will not allow me to remember from where. It is something in my mind that I continually grasp at, yet am never able to reach. Perhaps I am not meant to.
He said that we would talk when I get home from school. Somehow, I doubt much talking will go on. I know he has other plans on his mind. I am not going to oppose them, though. Partly because I do not wish to, partly because I fear that this is just a sweet dream that will soon float away from me. I have wanted this for so long, I hardly dare to blink, afraid I will blink it all away.
I would give myself to him wholly if he so wished. Body, mind, soul; I would give my entire world to him if it would ensure that this could last forever. Yet I fear it will not. Nothing lasts forever. Even love. And in my heart of hearts, I fear that this is not even love, on his part atleast. I know that I truly love him, I have for as long as I can remember. I think I loved him before I knew him. I think I loved him for as long as the world has existed. But what of his feelings?
~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~
I almost feel bad for him, the poor fool. He thinks I love him. He is willing to give his whole world to me, I can see it in his eyes when he looks at me. He has left for school now, and I am left in this house alone for now, left alone to contemplate my next move. Should I just do it? Should I take him when he gets home? Or should I wait, prolong this charade for as long as it suits my purposes? Both are good ideas, but only one can be best. But which one?
Something is nagging me in the back of my head. Something is silently screaming out in agony as I make my plans. Something in me is hurting, and I do not know what. No matter how hard I try to reach the voice, it continues to hide from me, just a shadow in the dark corners of my soul. I am learning to block it out, but still, I feel that nagging in me, and it antagonizes me.
No matter. It can be ignored. For now, my thoughts are only of Ryou, _my_ Ryou, my innocent little Ryou.
He will not be so innocent after this weekend.
~End Chapter 5~
Sorry it's so short, but I just thought that was a good way to end the chapter. From now on, some chapter will be short like this, but there will be more updates (think one or two a day), so no matter. I just have a thing about ending chapters with certain sentences. They have to be just right. Don't ask. But anyway, R&R please! Next chapter should be up by tomorrow.
