Addicted
I heard you're doing okay
But I want you to know
I'm addicted to you
Ryou's POV: Do you know how much it hurts with you gone? To find out you've found someone new? Someone so not like me that if we were rated by any scale, we'd be at the very opposite ends, (if that makes sense)? Well, I've been in agony ever since Yugi told me he saw you with someone new. I wish I could find someone new, but the truth is, I'm still in love with you.
I can't pretend I don't care
When you don't think about me
Do you think I deserve this?
Do you wonder about me in your spare time? Because my day is filled with the spare time I think about you. I need you here, but you are there. Do I deserve this emptiness in my heart?
I tried to make you happy
But you left anyway
I thought we had a good thing. I thought you were happy, I know I was. But you left. I guess I didn't try hard enough to make you happy.
I'm trying to forget that I'm addicted to you
But I want it and I need it
I'm addicted to you
I've tried to forget my love for you, truly I have. But I still want to keep it. It helps to patch up my heart. I try and try to let it go, but I go on loving you.
Now it's over, can't forget what you said
And I never want to do this again
Heartbreaker, heartbreaker, heartbreaker
You're gone now, our relationship is done, it's dead. That letter that ended it all is burned into my memory. Oh, I don't ever want to go through that again. My heart, what's left of it, is not strong enough to stand getting broken once more.
Since the day I met you
And after all we've been through
Still addicted to you
Bakura's POV: I've had some one night stands, and one week flings, and yet each day passes without marking me. But all the days I spent with you, from the first to the last, has haunted me; my little shadow. And I can't shake those memories, because they remind me that I love you still.
I think you know that it's true
I'd run a thousand miles to get you
I helped you when you fell before. I came when you called. And if ever my love was called into question, I'd do everything in my power to prove that my love was true. Don't call me now, for I'd come running back in an instant.
Do you think I deserve this?
I tried to make you happy
I did all that I could
Just to keep you
I tried to change my ways, I really did. But I didn't change as much as would make you happy. And all I wanted was for you to be happy. I didn't want you to drift away.
But you left anyway
Ryou's POV: You talk of making me happy. But the saddest thing you ever did was leave.
I'm trying to forget that I'm addicted to you
But I want it and I need it
I'm addicted to you
Now it's over, can't forget what you said
And I never want to do this again
Bakura's POV: Leaving you was one of the hardest things I've ever done, especially because I keep on loving you. I want to return to you, my heart begs for that. But I left you, left you for good. I can't go through leaving you again.
Heartbreaker, heartbreaker
How long must I keep waiting?
Ryou's POV: You broke my heart sweetie. Aren't you ever coming back to glue the pieces back together again?
Until the end of time
Bakura's POV: I can never go back to you. I'd probably be risking my life, I ruined yours so bad.
Don't know why I'm still waiting
Ryou's POV: I'm Humpty Dumpty who had a big fall. I thought you were the King's horses and men, but you haven't come to put me together again. I suppose I was wrong, I suppose I'll have to find them myself.
I can't make you mine
Bakura's POV: Even when we were together, you weren't really mine, were you? So I can just forget about you ever being mine, can't I?
I'm trying to forget that I'm addicted to you
But I want it and I need it
Ryou's POV: I let you go, when I should have chased you. That's what you'd have done if I had left.
I'm trying to forget that I'm addicted to you
But I want it and I need it
Bakura's POV: I'm such a coward, leaving you like I did instead of confronting you face to face! I should have listened to Marik! But I can't do anything about that now. All I can do is dream.
I'm addicted to you
Now it's over, can't forget what you said
And I never want to do this again

Rowan: Er…that's my least favorite of chapters. At least the next one, with third person POV is better (at least, I hope so!)
All reviews are greatly appreciated!
Oh, and one last thing. I don't own "Humpty Dumpty" either.
