More reviews yay! Yayness heaven! And I know, I know, I did say ATTEMPTED suicide, didnt I? Well it still is. It isnt suicide unless he actually dies, right? So in other words, I wasnt ever planning on killing him anyways. He's to kawaii for that, and it would be cruel...
I also agree with the majority of the reviews, so no yaoi. I agree with whoever said they only had a brotherly thing going. *nods* BROTHERLY. I think I used that in this chapter.... Oh good then. ^_^ So no yaoi, and thats my point.
Arigato for reviewing, minna-san! (and for those who dont know Japanese basics, I just said "Thanks for reviewing, everyone!")

*****************
If you want me to wait,
I will wait for you.
If you want me to stay,
I will stay right through.
Thank Ra that stopped the bleeding! But I have to get him to someone who can stop him from dying still, I know I can't do that. But who is there these days? The hospital! Of course!
Ryou was now unconscious because he'd lost too much blood. Still alive, but would he make it?
Please Ryou, I don't want to be wasting my time. Don't die on me now.
Bakura lifted Ryou in his arms and stumbled down the hall to the phone desk. He didn't want Ryou to leave his sight until he was well again. Supporting him with one hand, he picked up the phone's receiver. He wasn't stupid, and there was a sign on the phone that said 'if in an emergency dial 911.'
This counts as an emergency situation, right?
If you don't wanna say
anything at all,
I'm happy wondering.
"9-1-1 rescue, what is the situation and how can we help you?" said an urgent woman's voice.
"My friend slit his wrists and he was bleeding badly so I wrapped them up in cloth to stop the bleeding. But I'm going to need someone to help him to the hospital."
"Location?"
"4331 Elm Street, Domino City. Can you get some help now??" Bakura's voice was starting to crack.
How long is this going to take?
Since I was young man,
I never was a fun man
I never had plan and no security
This is all my fault Ryou, and I'm so sorry. No one should ever have had to go through what I put you through. But I have been before... it was how I grew up, and- oh, Ryou, I'm sorry I put my frustrations out on you.
"Alright, sir, there will be an ambulance to pick him up as soon as possible. It should be arriving in around five minutes. Don't move your friend."
Too late on that factor.
"Good. I hear them now."
He wasn't sure how 911 worked, but it was helpful plenty. Hanging up the phone, he carried Ryou to the door. He was still out from the lack of blood. The linen wrapped around his wrists had been doing their job well, but were now covered in red splotches.
Then ever since I met you,
I never could forget you
I only want to get you right here next to me
The emergency vehicle pulled up on to the lawn, and medical personnel rushed in.
"We'll take him to the hospital."
Bakura shook his head, "I'm coming with him."
The personnel looked at each other, and coaxed Ryou out of Bakura's arms and rushed him out to the ambulance. Bakura followed, curious as to how they were going to help Ryou at all. He wanted Ryou to have the best treatment as possible.
When they put Ryou in the cart and wheeled him in to the vehicle, Bakura followed, standing next to him.
I don't care what anyone says, I'm not leaving you, Ryou.
"Sir you can't be in here."
Bakura glared at the nurse and didn't move.
'Cause everybody needs someone that they can trust in
Your somebody that I found just in time
I need to know that Ryou is ok.
"I already told you that I'm not leaving. I don't care what you people say."
Ryou, if you leave me now I'll never forgive myself.
If you want me to wait,
I will wait for you.
If you want me to stay,
I will stay right through.
"But, sir-"
"No."
"Fine."
A couple nurses came into the back, and the doors were shut. They began to check Ryou's pulse and such.
Hold on Ryou.
//Ryou? Can you hear me?//
No response. Even if he was in his soul room now, he probably wouldn't respond.
//Please Ryou, I care about you, don't die.//
If you don't wanna say
anything at all,
I'm happy wondering.
In his soul room Ryou was sill smiling. He didn't know where his physical body was right now, but Bakura was finally feeling guilty. He could be changed.
Upon reaching the hospital, Bakura was allowed to follow only to the emergency room door, where he was then told to wait in the commons because there was nothing more he could do. They'd tell him the news when it was over.
Waiting is unnerving. Why did I do all those horrible things? Why? Why? Why?
Now my life is changing,
Its always rearranging
Its always getting stranger than I thought it ever could
The doors to the hospital and in burst Yugi, Jou (Joey), Anzu (Tea), Honda (Tristin), and following them was Yami. The first four rushed past Bakura to the emergency room door trying to look in.
"They'll only tell you the same thing they told me. Get away from there, Ryou can't see you anyways." Bakura glared at them as he spoke.
"What did you do to hurt Ryou this time?! How could you?" demanded Yugi, eyes set in determination to help his friend.
Bakura looked down to his feet.
Ever since I found you,
I wanna be around you,
I wanna get down to the point that I needed you
"I did nothing 'this time' Yugi. He did this himself."
"Liar!" screamed Anzu, "We're his friends, why didn't he tell us?!"
"How did you find out what was going on anyways?"
Coming up from behind, Yami spoke.
"We saw the ambulance. We aren't blind, tomb robber. What happened!?"
"I'm not in the mood to talk right now, pharaoh baka."
I won't ever hurt Ryou again. All this time I've kept my feelings bottled up inside. I need him to live or else... I don't know what.
'Cause everybody needs someone that they can trust in
Your somebody that I found just in time
Yugi and co. tried to inquire more from Bakura, but didn't get any answers whatsoever. He was lost in his own thoughts, pacing up and down the soul room hallways. He couldn't hear anything from Ryou's room, and he wished he could. Anything at all would make him feel better.
//Ryou...I...I'm sorry I've hurt you so much, but I won't do it anymore. I never meant for anything like this to happen.//
Even if Ryou was listening, he sure took a long time to answer.
If you want me to wait,
I will wait for you.
If you want me to stay,
I will stay right through.
/Do you mean that Bakura? Are you feeling guilty yet?/
//I'm sorry, Ryou. I honestly am. Please don't leave me.//
/It's in fate's hands now./
//Ryou, that was an order.//
/What? For me not to leave? Why?/
//I don't want you to. I...I...//
/You-- what??/
//I'd miss you to much. That's all.//
/That wasn't what you were going to say./
Bakura cut off from the conversation. He didn't want Ryou to know, but he was like a little brother to him sometimes. Bakura never showed it, but he loved Ryou like family. Bakura had never had a family. And his father had always mistreated him in the same ways he had done so to Ryou... he knows now that he shouldn't have.
/If you want me to stay, I'll try not to go./
If you don't wanna say
anything at all,
I'm happy wondering.
Would he make it? Ryou didn't feel like going now. He felt completely foolish. He never should have even considered suicide until he understood why Bakura did what he does.
Slowly Ryou was gaining consciousness. He was alive. Someplace. But where? Bringing his eyes to open, he found himself in the hospital. But how did he get there? Bakura? He really did care.
"Doctor, doctor, look he's waking up!"
Ryou was hooked up with tubes to life support machines. He'd have to stay in the hospital for a while.
"I'll go tell his guests the good news."
Don't tell me the bad news
Don't tell me anything at all
Just tell me that you need me
And stay right here with me
"Ryou is alive, people, he can begin to see visitors in about four minutes. Please wait patiently."
I don't think I should go in. I'm the last person he wants to see. This is all my fault.
All Bakura wanted to hear was that Ryou was okay. Now that he was, Bakura turned and left the hospital. He didn't know where he was going, but Ryou didn't need someone like him to ruin more of his life.
If you want me to wait,
I will wait for you.
If you want me to stay,
I will stay right through.
If you don't wanna say
anything at all,
I'm happy wondering.
***********
Aw.... Bakura's leaving! NOOO! That cant happen or else Ryou will never see him again! You gotta tell me, will this forever be a cliffhanger, or do I continue? Yes, no, maybe? This is a big deciding point. And if I do happen to continue, would you no-yaoi reviews, pleeeeeease let me at least have them say 'I love you' to eachother? Brothers do that! ^_^;;;
