What Happens Now
Chapter 5: All That's Left
A/N #1: Bakura's POV
A/N #2: The song in this chapter is Sting's "The Book of My Life"
I hurried the rest of the way home. The whole way was spent in silence, I tried to figure out things, and am not able to come to an acceptable conclusion. I find myself glancing back at my hikari. I slow my pace slightly so that he can keep up, he might have twisted his ankle when he fell. When we get home, I open the door and go in. I go straight up to the bedroom. I close and lock the door behind me. I turn on Ryou's cd player, hit play and turn up the volume. I need time alone to think, Ryou own't bother me anyway.
I sit down on the window sill and stare out hte window. The song starts. It's one of Ryou's favorite cds. He's told me before that I should listen to it..
// // //
Let me watch by the fire and remember my days
And it may be a trick of the firelight
But thee flickering pages that trouble my sight
Is a book I'm afraid to write
// // //
I close my eyes for a few moments, listening to the works of the song.
// // //
It's the book of my days, it thes book of my life
And its cut like the fruit on the blade of a knife
And it's all there to see as the section reveals
Theres some sorrow in every life
If it reads like a puzzle, a wandering maze
Then I won't understand til the end of my days
I'm still forced to remember
Remember the words of my life
// // //
I open my yes, rise from the window sill and walk to the bed and sit down. I look at the picture on the dress of Ryou with his friends. The glass in the frame is cracked, that's most likely my fault..
Just then the last part of the song catches my attention.
// // //
Now the daylights returning
And if one sentance is true
All these pages are burning
And all that's left is you
// // //
I feel my breath hitch suddenly, as the song slows to an end. "All that's left is you..." I whisper. I'm still staring at the picture of Ryou.
Did I just find my answer? I set my hand on the dresser beside the picture. I feel something under my hand. I pick up, it's a Duel Monsters card. I wonder how it got there as I flip it over. The Change of Heart card, Ryou's favorite.
Maybe that's whats happening to me.
