~~ Bakura made his way back to the Royal city by night. He didn't have plans yet, but he decided he would go check on Gabby beforehand. To make sure she was ok. He expected to find her in the servant dorm where he had last heard she was in. However when he got there he saw no Gabby. Out of a moments panic, he went to the Pharaoh's room. He peaked through the window into Yami's room, but also no Gabby. He let out a sigh in relief.
Bakura continued searching for her until he found her in a grand royal room. He slipped quietly into her room and approached her bed. She was sound asleep, Bakura didnt' have the heart to wake her up. Bakura's heart sung of joy when he saw his beautiful angel. He felt tears welling in his eyes. He moved some of her hair out of her face.
"My Angel," he whispered, as he leaned down to kiss her, a tear fell on her face.
~~
"Bakura!" Gabby cried as she woke up from her dream. She touched her lips, then her face where the teardrop was still present. /It had to be him/ she thought. /Bakura, why haven't you come to see me, I miss you so much/ Tears began to fall as Gabby cried. Bakura who was standing outside her window heard her cry, his heart was ready to break in two, but he knew he couldn't tell her that he was there or Yami would find out one way or another.
*The next morning...
Gabby not slept much that night. She had been summoned to the throne room. Since her lessons were over, Yami wished to see how well the instructor had done. The instructor had announced to Yami that she was the perfect lady. Yami nodded, rewarded the instructor and had him sent out. He looked back at the now perfect Gabby. She was wearing a traditional Egyptian outfit, and her hair pulled back into an Egyptian style, showing off her beautiful earrings. Yami descended his royal throne and went over to Gabby.
Gabby was very nervous, she could see the Pharaoh's shadow slowly approaching her. She swallowed as she felt his fingers lift her face by the chin. Due to training, Gabby knew that it was improper to look at the pharaoh in the face, so she quickly looked back down to her shoes.
"Look at me." He commanded. Gabby did as she was told. She looked into the eyes of the pharaoh. Although at first look, the pharaoh's eyes were dark and cold. Gabby felt a shiver go down her back. The Pharaoh never took his eyes off her and then suddenly his eyes softened and he smiled. "Pefect." He said. He let go of Gabby's chin.
Yami smiled held her in his arms and bent down to give her a kiss. Gabby was in such shock she didn't even notice that Yami had already left. Gabby returned to her room in a trance like state and sat upon her bed.
/Why didn't I stop him?/ Gabby kept pondering. The question kept floating around in her mind. She was so confused. She loved Bakura...but could she also love Yami as well?
*Meanwhile
Someone was also thinking the same thing. Bakura had witnessed the entire scene between Yami and Gabby. When he had first made his way to the throne room, he was amazed at how beautiful Gabby had looked. Then the pharaoh had kissed her. How dare that Asshole touch his woman! Plans of murder came to his mind. Then he noticed that Gabby hadn't even resisted Yami's kiss the whole time. She just stood there, her eyes glazed over. What was wrong? Had she forgotten him already?
Bakura went over, anger, confusion and jealousy. It was simply driving him insane.
*Back in Gabby's room,
Gabby kept pacing back and fowards. /I can't possibly be in love with Yami. It's Bakura I love. I vowed to love him only. How can I be such a bitch?/ She said as she slapped herself for being such a fool. She couldn't believe she had let Yami kissed her. Although she wouldn't admit, she had secretly enjoyed Yami's kiss.
Gabby heart felt as if a huge boulder had been placed on top. She then thought, / I love Bakura don't I? He promised that we would have a wonderful futur.../ she stopped in mid-thought. /Future?/ She thought /But I'm from the future, so if I do anything wrong here, I might change the future, I might not even exist! What shall I do? / she thought.
Gabby could not imagine another day here with Yami. The current situation would only get worse. She packed her bags with things that she needed for her travel. She grabbed a bit of money in case of emergencies. She found some old servent clothes and decided that she would leave that very evening.
Night soon came, and as soon as Gabby had seen Yami go to bed, she gave it about 20 minutes to make sure he was asleep. She silently opened the door, and sneaked out of her room. She was almost out when she felt a cold chill go down her back and a pair of eyes spying on her. She turned around to be faced with a unhappy Yami. He wasn't exactly angry, more like dissappointed.
Gabby was taken into the throne room. Her eyes were on the tiled floor and she remained silent. Nothing passed in between Yami and Gabby for a few minutes. Then Yami spoke, "Why?"
"Why what your majesty?" she asked in her dull but with slight resentment in her voice.
Yami was already angry at Gabby for attempting to run away. Her tone of voice didn't help Yami calm down at all. In fact it was like throwing an extra bucket of gas into the fire. He slapped Gabby right across the face. After he had done it though, he felt a pang in his heart and he regretted it immediately.
Gabby simply held a hand to her cheek and said nothing. Yami held her to his chest and buried his face in her long dark hair. "I'm so sorry Gabby, I didn't mean to hit you. It's just that, my high priest told me that you were going to run away with Bakura and all. I'm so sorry." He said as he held her tightly
Gabby tried to resist, but she couldn't stop herself. She put her arms around Yami and hugged him. Yami felt her small hands wrap around his waist and connect at his back. He smiled. /What is this I'm feeling. It's a warmth I've never felt before. It's nothing like the heat of the warm desert sun. The warmth I feel is like..love./ Yami realized it. He really did love Gabby.
"I love you.." he whispered into her ear.
Gabby's eyes shot open. She pushed Yami away from her and tried to escape from the throne room. She was held back by about 5 guards. They dragged her back to the pharaoh.
"Let go of her!" Yami shouted to the guards, as if should one of them kept their hands longer on her they would find themselves with a one way ticket to the shadow realm. They immdiately let go of her.
Yami dismissed the guards. "No on is to enter without my consent." He ordered. He attempted to hold the crying Gabby on the floor. She was sobbing but the minute she felt Yami's hands she shoved him again causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground. He went over and kneeled next to her. "Please tell me what's wrong..." he said.
Gabby dried her eyes as she looked into Yami's eyes once again. She could see hurt and concern in his eyes. "I can't love you.." she said softly.
"Is it because of him? Bakura?" he asked
"No!" she said immdiately. " I'm not suppose to love him either. I realized that I am to love nobody or face dire consequences." She explained. "I, myself did not realize this till just this morning."
Yami was confused, "There is no crime in having tried to love, but it is a crime to fear love." He said.
"I wish I could love freely, but it might lead to my demise." She explained
"How could something like love lead to your demise?"
"Because I do not belong here." She stated
"What?"
"Yami I wish to tell you my deepest secret that I have kept from most people. I am not who you think I am. I am not your average Egyptian girl. I'm not even Egyptian. I come from a place that will exist about 5000 years from now. While I'm in the past, if I accidentally change something that was not suppose to happen, it could lead to a future that is not the one I don't know, in fact I may no longer exist." She tried to make the Pharaoh understand.
Yami had some disbelief, but when he looked at her face, and the calm demanor of her face, told him that she was indeed telling him the truth. Yami felt a bit of dissappointment, but then he made up his mind.
"I don't care!" he said, and he took her hand. "If destiny is what brought you here in the first place, then it is destiny that we should meet. No matter what, I will be here to protect you."
Gabby was speechless. /Bakura/ the word floated in her mind /He told me the same thing...but where is he now?/ the question floated in her head. But what she heard next knocked all that out of her mind.
"Gabby, marry me?" Yami said as he looked into her eyes with the most loving expression.
Gabby was speechless once again. She slowly found her voice and said, "Yami, I ..."
