Thanks for the reviews Todo, Shaami, Mare & Queen Hatshepsut II.
I'll a little short on ideas for this chapter so it'll probably be short & not very good. Sorry if this is the case.

We've been home for about fifteen minutes now & I've been trying to calm Bakura & myself down for the entire time. I'm still angry with them though, how dare they say something like that? They don't know Bakura at all, I mean, they gave Malik a chance, so why not Bakura? Couldn't they tell that he's different now?
Bakura on the other hand has been cursing excessively in Egyptian, I think it's because they interrupted the talk though, not because of what was said by the Yugi-tachi. Of course, since I don't speak Egyptian, I can't be completely sure. Maybe I should just try talking to him instead? Talking helps, right?
"Bakura?"
He's stopped cursing, that's a good start.
"What is it? Am I scaring you or something?"
I can't help smiling at that, I don't know how he can be mockingly condescending & caring at the same time.
"No, I just wanted to make sure you were okay & weren't going to do anything stupid, like send them all to the shadow realm. Even if they do deserve it."
I mutter the last part, but since he's started laughing, I guess he heard me. Still, him laughing is good & it's making me feel better too.
"I won't do anything Ry, I'm not stupid enough to."
He smiles & then sits down, turning his attention to the TV. Even if he's relaxed now, I'm still angry with them, maybe I'll call Malik & rant about it to him. I haven't seen him since what happened anyway.
I think I must be blushing because Bakura's looking at me strangely, I brush it aside & quickly leave the room, saying I'm going to call Malik. I hear him growl slightly at this, which makes my blush deepen, as I know why he's angry. I wonder what he saw exactly? On second thoughts, I don't think I want to know.
I dial the number & wait, I feel very nervous right now & the wait isn't helping that at all.
"Ishtar residence, Malik speaking."
"Uh, hello Malik, it's Ryou."
Damn, why do I have to sound so nervous?
"Oh, uh, hey Ry. Did, uh, Bakura explain why I left?"
Well, at least he sounds nervous too I guess.
"Yes, he did."
"Uh, that's good. So, what's up?"
"Bad day, so I wondered if I could complain to you, like I normally do?"
I can feel him grin at that, maybe our friendship isn't ruined after all. I'm glad.
"Sure. Over the phone or want me to come over?"
"Uh, come over?"
"Okay, be there in five."
He sounds happy, that's good, I feel better already.
"Okay, see you soon."
I hang up the phone feeling all warm inside, guess I care a lot about him.
"You're going to make me sick."
Bakura's cold voice soon snaps me out of the feeling however.
"Uh, sorry?" I don't really know what to say to him.
"If you intend on more physical contact, give me a warning." Bakura states sharply, before returning to the front room once more.
I really do feel bad about him walking in on us, but it isn't as if I knew it was going to happen & was things got started, we just, uh, got a little, carried away.
"I really am sorry about that you know Bakura, I didn't know that was going to happen." I really to feel awfully guilty about this.
"I know. It still wasn't something I needed to see though. I'm far too protective of you for that & probably far too jealous too. Just ignore me." Bakura replies solemnly.
That was a surprise, Bakura feels jealous of Malik? I guess he's used to being the centre of my attention. Oh, I didn't mean to upset him.
I walk up & hug him tightly, practically in tears, mutters apologies & promises. He returns the embrace lightly & assures me that it's okay. I really am lucky to have him.
Malik arrives shortly after & we go to my room again, after telling Bakura to knock if he needs me, just in case.

Once Ryou & Malik have gone upstairs, I walk over to the phone & dial the game shop, hoping Yami will be there. Unfortunately however, it goes onto the answer phone & I decide I'll have to leave a message.
"Hey Pharaoh, if you still want to explain whatever it was, meet me at nine where we first met. Motto ato no."
There, that will do, I can find out later instead, so everything is still okay. What to do until then though I wonder? I suppose I could always practice on the console, I don't want Pharaoh getting better at the game than me, I'd never live it down. Ryou & Malik would give me hell about it too, considering I spend so much time on it, that & the fact that I gave Ryou hell when I beat him at his favourite game.
Who would've thought my hikari would like beat-em-up games, let alone be good at them? Though saying that, hardly anyone knows what he's really like anyway, the shouting for instance, that shocked all of them, but it isn't the worse I've heard, Ry was only being protective, he wasn't really angry.
Malik & I know what it's like when he's angry all too well, since we found out first hand when we accidentally wrecked the front room. That's why Ryou's father bought the console though, so we could do something, since I couldn't go out.
Why is the time going so slowly?! I want to find out what that was all about. I mean, I almost thought he was going to kiss me for a minute & then Pharaoh's brat yelled; now I'll never know what was going to happen & it's driving me crazy. Not that everyone doesn't assume I'm crazy anyway. Damned Yugi-tachi, I'd curse Pharaoh's brat if I didn't think it'd make Yami hate me. Why does Pharaoh have to have that annoying runt as a hikari?
~-~
Well, slightly longer than I thought, though most of that is because of the talking. Sorry it isn't too good; I'll try to do better on the next chapter. Remember to review please? Anyway, I'll shut up now. Ja ne.
I'll a little short on ideas for this chapter so it'll probably be short & not very good. Sorry if this is the case.
