********************Last Time********************
"'Kay..." Yuugi said as he leaned in and covered his lips over that of his yami's. Yami smirked against the timid kiss he was receiving and pulled his hikari into his lap. Yuugi smirked as he put his legs on either side of Yami's hips and squeezed his thighs together causing Yami to erupt into a haze of moans. Yuugi dove into the newly exposed area of Yami's neck when Yami leaned back, sucking, biting and licking. Yami moaned at the new feeling his aibou was bestowing upon him. When had his innocent hikari become so...un-innocent? When, how and why didn't seem to matter to Yami anymore as he pulled Yuugi closer enjoying the feel of his light's small slick tongue on his neck. Right when Yuugi was about to take off Yami's shirt he remembered where he was, and just exactly who else was in the room. He pulled back and Yami moaned in protest.
"Yuugi...Doushite...anata...yameru...?" Yami panted in exasperation. Yuugi smirked and kissed Yami once more.
"Not the right place." Yuugi said motioning behind him. Yami sighed softly.
**************************************************
They were still in Ryou's room and they knew they couldn't leave.
"Right..." Yami sighed. Then he yawned. Yuugi giggled and kissed Yami's node affectionately.
"You should get some sleep. You're tired, I can feel it." Yuugi said.
"Then let me sleep...Right here...I'm too tired to leave..." Yami murmured falling asleep at the end of his sentence. Yuugi smiled and sighed. He turned around his Yami's lap and began to get off when said yami's arms wrapped around his waist, pulling him against his chest possessively. Yuugi blanched slightly and blushed as he tried to make use of the situation and turn around so at least he was comfortable.
"You're lucky." Said a voice. Yuugi turned slightly from where he was and saw Ryou laying in bed with his eyes open. Yuugi blushed in shame.
"I'm sorry..." Yuugi began.
"Don't apologize. Not for anything. It's not your fault I'm dying. It's not anybodies except my own. I'm the one that pushed my yami away...now I'm paying the price." Ryou said softly, tears shimmering down his pale cheeks making him look almost cherubic.
"No! It's not your fault! It's nobody's fault! No one could have known that he would have done that to you. Ryou, he didn't even know what he was doing until it was too late. He cant see that you want him back...He doesn't know...And he doesn't want to listen." Yuugi informed sadly, tears traveling down his face at seeing his friend in a most depressing state.
"He was here. A couple hours ago...I felt him and I woke up...But he didn't know I was awake. I almost opened my eyes...more than once...I even tried to keep him here by pretending I was having a nightmare...But he just walked away...I'm scared...I don't want to die...Not really...It hurts so much I'm willing to die...but...I'm afraid...O Kami-sama...Boku wa no kanashii...Boku wa no...kowai..." Ryou cried, tears streaming down his face relentlessly, dripping onto his hand and the bedspread. (Oh God...I'm so sad...I'm so...scared...)
"Ryou..." Yuugi whispered.
"Make it go away...Make the pain go away...Please...Just...Make it go away...Onegai..." Ryou begged. Yuugi got up off Yami's lap, walked over to Ryou's heaving and trembling form. He sat next to him, pulling him into a tight hug, soothing the boy until he fell asleep once again.
"Bakura...I swear on everything I believe in...I wont let you kill Ryou..." Yuugi said, sending one last prayer to the small albino boy he held so softly in his arms. (Gomen...I'm getting into the Ryou/Yuugi thing...^0^)
~*~Round 11:00-Jounouchi and Seto's shift~*~
"Okay, thanks." Seto said. Honda had just finished telling them where Ryou was going that day. Ryou may have known that they were watching him but that didn't mean that he liked it. He tried ever chance he got to get away from them. They had quite a lot of fun when he lost Seto and Jou in the museum.
"Alright, thanks guys see ya later." Honda said as he left for the day.
"Why must you follow me everyday?" Ryou asked warily. Out of all of Yami's followers, stalkers if you will, Seto and Jounouchi were the ones easiest to get away from. All they did was stare at each other. It was totally obvious they were in love. Ryou smiled, it seemed everyone was in love. He knew Anzu was in love with Yuugi and that Mai was in love with Anzu. It was a vicious cycle. 'I wonder when all will be reveled...I...I wonder if anyone will end up sad...Or if anyone will end up happy...' Ryou thought. 'I feel so weak...I wonder how much longer I have...maybe 3-5 days...hmph...not that long...oh well...Not like anyone would miss me...' Ryou thought. 'I better try not to escape them this time...They'll just find me anyway...And who knows what could happen to me if someone...No, I cant think like that...I have to be strong for the time I have left.'
"It's for your own good. We don't want you to get hurt. We care about you Ryou...We don't like seeing you like this." Seto said softly.
"Yea...We dun wan' ya ta die...Damn Bakura! Damn him for what he's doin'!" exclaimer Jounouchi, angrily. Ryou sighed tiredly.
"Its alright...I forgive him...I've always forgiven him...in fact that's what made him stop." Ryou said, giving a small smile. Seto looked as confused as Jou did.
"What do you mean 'stop'?" Seto asked. Ryou's eyes glimmered.
"Oh? Yami never told you? Bakura never fully raped me..." Ryou began.
~*~Flashback~*~
Bakura threw Ryou back onto the bed, spreading his legs wide about his waist. He smiled lecherously.
"Get ready angel..." Bakura slurred, pushing Ryou's shoulders down to steady himself. Ryou's face was red from crying, he stared into his yami's eyes. The sad thing about this was that Ryou was just as aroused as Bakura was, even though this was supposedly against his will. Bakura didn't have to go through a lot to make him hard, just a touch from him was enough to send the small tenshi overboard. He loved him so much...Ryou knew what Bakura was doping even if he did not. More tears flew down his face. "Ready?" Bakura asked, leaning down to try and focus his eyes on hikari and soon to be lover. Ryou's lips moved but no sound came out. Bakura raised an eyebrow. "Nani? Speak louder!" he yelled. Ryou's eyes flashed open as fresh tears filled them.
"I forgive you. I know you do not know what you're doing...So...I forgive you." Ryou said, not blinking his eyes away from Bakura's. Bakura's mind raced as he sobered up quickly. He squeezed his eyes shut and reopened them without the alcoholic gaze. He stared down at Ryou, shocked beyond belief. Then he realized what kind of a position they were in. 'Oh my Ra...no...' he thought. Ryou had shut his eyes, expecting the worst kind of pain ever. Broken; was the first word that came to his mind when he saw his light. 'I've broken my hikari...my poor hikari...Oh Ra please no...' Bakura thought. He quickly got off Ryou's hurt body and threw as many blankets as he could find on top of him. Ryou looked up in shock.
"Gomen ne sai...Utsukushi tenshi...Gomen ne sai..." Bakura said before he bolted out of the house. (I'm so sorry...beautiful angel...I'm so sorry...)
~*~End Flashback~*~
"And that's what happened." Ryou said. Seto and Jou looked at him in shock.
"Y-Yami never told us that...We thought Bakura had completely...Wow...So could Bakura have gotten rid of the alcohol that easily the whole time?" Seto asked.
"Only if he wanted to." Ryou said.
"An' he finally wan'ed ta..." Jou said. Ryou blushed, half of him had wanted Bakura to continue.
"H-Hai..." Ryou said. 'Only because I love him...That's the only reason...I've been in love with him since the first day I saw him...He was an angel in disguise...A lone devil looking for a way out...I fell in love with that first confused look he gave...yami...Bakura...' Ryou thought, sitting back on the couch and sighing.
"That's wrong...I still cant believe he did that to you. I still can't believe you love him after what he did to you! That's one-sided love...It's not worth the pain it brings...Wanting death...Wanting it to put you out of your misery and end your pain and suffering...Ryou...If you'd only stop loving him you wouldn't be dying..." Seto said, eyes heavy and cast downward. Ryou glared at him.
"A lot easier said than done, Seto. Why don't you stop loving Jou if it hurts you so much? If you were in my shoes and Jou did what Bakura did to me to you, would you stop loving him?" Seto flushed, he was sure glad Jou stepped out to go to the bathroom.
"N-No..." Seto answered shyly. Jou moved behind a corner and listened to the conversation intently. He didn't mean to spy on Seto, he just had to know who Seto was in love with.
"No what? No, you wouldn't love someone like that...or no, you would never stop loving him because you know he's the one?" Ryou said, eyes deep and truthful.
"Iie! I could never not love him! I love him too much for that or anything to get in the way...One-sided love...hurts...so bad...To know that you'd do anything for that person without hesitation...and knowing they wouldn't do the same...In a way I am very much like Bakura...We both love someone who is too innocent and good for us..." Seto trailed off, sinking into the chair. 'W-What?! No way! Kaiba...he's in love with a guy?! But...but who?' Jealousy flared in Jou's body making his eyes darken.
"How do you know if my yami loves me?" Ryou asked catching a bit of what he said that represented him.
"I don't know. Call it an intuition." Kaiba said. Ryou snorted.
"Why don't you tell him how you feel?" Ryou asked. Jou decided enough was enough and he couldn't take anymore emotional pain so he stepped out from behind the corner.
"Tell who, what?" Jou asked. Seto stiffened when he spotted Jou. (Not like that!! O.o) He fought a blush and turned his head away.
"Nothing." He said. Jou felt anger rise in the pit of his stomach but he stayed clam and sat next to Ryou, smiling at him. Ryou smiled back, seeing Seto's possessive glare.
"Well, I'm going to get some rest. Honda and I played a rather nasty game of chess and I'm tired." Ryou murmured. (Ya know like a real hard game...)
"OK..." Seto said, knowing fully why Ryou had done that. However strong the urges, nothing happened. They simply watched television until Anzu got there.
"Where's Ryou?" she asked. Seto and Jou pointed to the bedroom and motioned for her to be quiet.
"He's asleep. He and Honda played chess and you know who good Honda is..." Jou said.
"Oh, OK, thanks you guys." Anzu said.
"Hi, Ja!" Jou said as he walked out. Seto nodded and left with Jou.
"I swear...those two..." she said giggling.
~*~I dunno...I was young when I wrote this so the time frames are all f***ed up...Just like...A couple days later...~*~
'Wow I'm surprised I made it this far...Strong soul and spirit is what Yami told me...Yuugi said it was the heart of the cards...and they didn't want their master to die. I believe both of them. I haven't seen or heard from Bakura since that night with Yami...but...' Ryou was deep in thought. 'Ra, I'm so weak...I can barely move anymore...I supposed that's to be expected...My energy is nearly depleted. I'm going to die today...'
"Do you need anything, Ryou?" Yuugi asked. 'It is about 9 PM and everybody is here...They're here to say goodbye...' Ryou thought solemnly.
"N-No...Yami...Yuugi...Is this the end?" Ryou asked, already knowing the answer. Yuugi tried to smile but his attempts were in vain. He burst into tears and threw himself onto Ryou who was lying on the bed. Ryou wrapped his arms around Yuugi and smiled sadly. "Shh...Don't worry, Yuugi...I'll be in a better place...Don't worry...I'll be happy there...In a place without one-sided love...without...pain and regret...Be happy for me...Onegai...Genki Yuugi...Onegai no watashi no...Onegai..." Ryou whispered, eyes slowly falling. (Please... happy Yuugi... please for me... please) Ryou smiled lightly as he slipped into a black void of nothingness, the last breath escaping his body as his eyes shut for the last time.
"Iie...Iie..." Yuugi cried as he shook Ryou. "Iie! Anata no iie shinu wa! IIE!!" Yuugi screamed mercilessly. (No...no...no! You can't die! NO!)
He ran as fast as he could. Jumping and pushing random objects out of his way. He ran fast as the pain continued to pang at his already swollen heart.
"Masaka! Masaka!" he shouted, hoping beyond all hope he wasn't experiencing his hikari's demise deep in his heart. He ran into the building he once upon a time used to live in. The door slammed open with an audible bang and shit with even more force as he bolted toward his light's room, not stopping for all the treasure in the world. He shoved the door open and stood in its wake, panting roughly. All eyes were focused on him and all his eyes could see was Ryou. Everyone stared, helpless as more tears flew down all their faces. The only one not surprised by Bakura's sudden entrance was Yami, and when he did look up it was only to gaze onto the dead body of the innocent one they all used to know. He as lying in bed, a deathly color of white. Not moving…not breathing. Bakura gave a muffled cry as he lurched forwards onto the bed, grasping Ryou and holding onto him tightly. He rocked them back and forth, not letting go for anything in the world. It seemed like forever until Yami spoke.
"This is all your fault, Bakura…I warned you…And even after that you knew! You knew this would happened! You knew from the very beginning! Ever since you left, you knew! You knew he'd die if you left…You've been given so many chances! And see now fate hasn't been too kind on your slacked ass! This is all your fault! Ryou is gone because of you! You killed your own light! Your fault he's dead…your fault his last thoughts were of you! Your fault he welcomed death! And it's your fault we'll never see him again…" Yami cried, tears trailing over old ones. Bakura squeezed his eyes shit and held a tighter grip onto Ryou's cold lifeless body, trying to warm him desperately.
"IIE! I wont believe it! Iie…iie…iie….iie…You cant leave me Ryou! Ryou-chan…IIE!" Bakura screamed.
~*~In the void~*~
Wandering…That seemed to fit the description to what he was doing, what he could only do…There was nothing. Just the impending darkness…overcoming any light he intended to bring…no light…so dark…
"Where…am I? Am I dead? I should be…Why am I in this darkness? Why haven't I crossed over yet?! Please…even here I can still feel the pain…" Ryou cried. This darkness was so similar to his yami's soulroom…The darkness welcoming him…he felt almost safe here…it felt almost like his yami was here…holding onto him…Ryou walked farther until a circular white projection came before him. He cocked his head at it. Was this his window to the outside world? He saw that once in a movie…could it work here as well?
"N…Nani?" he asked. He focused on it harder until it began to take shape. Ryou was shocked to see his yami in the window. What shocked him more was that…his yami was…crying. What? Impossible! His yami never cried! The figure in his arms that he seemed to be crying for began to focus. "Nandaiyo?! Boku wa…Kare…Honto…" Ryou trailed off, unable to continue his sentence as his mouth grew dry. The way his yami looked was so ethereal…The way he was rocking Ryou's dead body back and forth while crystalline tears continuously fell down porcelain cheeks.
"DOUSHITE!? DOUSHITE?! Why are you showing me this?! Are you doing this out of humor?! Do you find this funny?! Ah gods, stop mocking me! Yamete! Make it go away! ONEGAI!" Ryou cried out, grasping his hair in his hands. When it didn't vanish, he fell to his knees, sobbing and holding his head in his hands. "Onegai…" he whimpered.
"You have to let him go." Now that wasn't his voice…Ryou looked up and saw that there was now sound to the small screen.
"Y-Yami…?" Ryou dared to question, recognizing the voice instantly. Yami walked up to Bakura, who was huddled over Ryou still.
"You can't hold him down! He's dead and its all your fault, now let him go!" Yami screamed. Bakura latched onto Ryou's dead form tighter.
"Onegai…onegai…Forgive me Ryou…onegai…" Bakura cried. "I wont let him go! I'll never leave him again!" Bakura yelled, the tears never once halting in their coarse of marring Bakura's once stoic face.
"Bakura…Bakura…I want to go back to him…" Ryou cried. He looked up with tears in his eyes bit burned with defiance as he screamed into the void. "I WANT TO GO BACK! LET ME GO BACK! I WANT TO GO BACK TO BAKURA!" he screamed desperate to get out of the void and back into the arms of his yami. He squeezed his eyes shut and hung his head, more tears leaking out of his tightly shut eyelids. Just when he thought he'd never get back, he opened his eyes, feeling strangely disoriented. He was lying down and the familiar feel of Bakura's arms was around his body. He looked down and saw Bakura bent over his stomach crying. His sobs were deafening, such hurt felt sounds…Ryou smiled lightly as tears fell down his own face. He heard everyone gasp as he moved his hand to Bakura's cheek. He tenderly caressed it and slightly pushed for his head to face him.
"Ryou…" Bakura cried, his beautiful chocolately brown eyes glazed and shimmering with tears.
"Dame…dame da…Dame da no kanashii ni watashi…watashi…hakukashii." Ryou cried out, tears flowing in small rivers down his face. (Don't be sad for me, I am ashamed.) Bakura smiled and tenderly wiped away Ryou tears.
"Dame ni no hakukashii…Boku mo hoshii ni no anata wa tanoshi…" Bakura whispered, his husky voice deep and sorrow filled. (Don't be ashamed, I want you to be happy.) Ryou smiled and flung his arms around Bakura's neck, crying into his shoulder. Bakura welcomed the light into his arms, never had he ever been so happy…his light wouldn't die…now that he was here and here to stay…his light would never die that way…Nothing could end his happiness…except the knowing feeling that Ryou could never love him as much as he loved him…
Owari~Fin~End~

Ying Fa: OMG!?!?!!? Did I ACTUALLY finish it?!?!?!?!?! I'm so proud of myself! I actually picked up this damned notebook! It's been how long since I actually looked at it?! Jeez I dunno…I know that was short so…I'll give you a teaser of the sequel, yes I know that is cruel because you all don't know WHEN I'll actually have it up…anyways, here ya go~
**********************************************
"Arigatou for driving us home, Mutou-sama, when yami got sick I got really scared…I'm glad I can be home to take care of him." Ryou said. Sugoroku nodded and left soon after helping Ryou in the house with his yami's unconscious body. Ryou grabbed a washcloth and put it under the cold water. He rung it out and set it on his yami's cooling forehead. "Yami…" Ryou whispered. His eyes widened when a flashback of when Bakura told him to call him by his name popped into his mind. He smiled and blushed when he remember in the dream what happened after his yami had said those words. His pants suddenly seemed a lot tighter than they had originally been. Bakura moaned and Ryou looked at him in worry. He got an idea and he closed his eyes shortly afterwards.
/Yami?/ Ryou asked as he walked down the dark hallways of their minds.
//Tenshi…// Ryou heard Bakura whisper. He jumped suddenly at hearing Bakura's voice surround him. Bakura grinned and moved out of the shadows, pulling Ryou's frightened body into an embrace. Ryou gasped, his eyes flaring wide.
/Yami! What…What are you doing?!/ Ryou asked, fear clearly evident in his voice and eyes. Bakura's eyes were dull and had absolutely no light left in them. Ryou shuddered. Bakura locked his lips.
//Something I should have done a long time ago…// he whispered, huskily, claiming Ryou's mouth with his own. Ryou gasped again and tried desperately to push him away. 'This is wrong! He…he was being gentle before…But now he's…Yami please stop…please…don't let me lose my faith in you…' Ryou thought, bringing his hands up to push again his yami's chest. He finally was able to push him away as tears trailed down his face.
/Onegai…onegai…yami…onegai…/ Ryou whimpered. /Dame…/ he whispered. Bakura smirked, letting his lust show through his eyes. Ryou gasped. He remembered that look. It was the same look he had give n him that fateful night…when…that almost happened. Ryou gulped and Bakura began to advance on him. Ryou balled his fists and pounded onto Bakura's chest. /Dame! Yami! DAME!/ he shouted, pounding harder on his yami's chest. However, Bakura paid no attention to his struggles and continued to move over him, settling him down onto the floor and straddling his waist. Bakura pinned Ryou's legs beneath his own body and his arms high above his head. Tears fell, blurring his vision so badly he only saw colors. Bakura moved down Ryou's body, touching and groping any area that was available. Ryou screamed bloody murder, so loud he knew somebody would save him, but then he remembered that they were still in the hallway. He kept screaming, screaming until his throat was sore. /Yami-sama! YAMETE! KUDASAI!/ Ryou shouted. Bakura ripped his shirt off, exposing his slightly built chest and continued his torture downward. Ryou's eyes were growing red from crying and his throat hurt terribly…he didn't know how he was going to get out of this one…
