What Happens Now

Chapter 6: Yami

A/N: Ryou's POV

I hope we're almost home. My ankle hurts a little. Wait, is that Yami looking back at me? I must be imagining things. Oh, were home already...

"Yami...where are you going?" I find myself whispering as he runs inside and up the stairs. I walk after him only to hear the door close when I reach the base of the stairs. I sigh a little then head over to the couch. It's probably best not to bother him.

I close my eyes and I hear the music come on upstairs. I sing along with the song softly, remember the first time I put the song on for my Yami. He'll probably never realise how much it really means to me.

Close to the end of hte song I pull myself up off the couch and head up stairs. I reach over the top of the door for the key that's hidden on the doorframe. I slide it into the doorknob and turn it slowly. The lock clicks open. I hesitate for a moment before opening the door a little. My Yami is on the bed, turned away from the door, and me, thankfully.

"And all that's left is you..."

I freeze. Did he mean me when he said that? My gaze falls on the picture on the dresser. He has something in his hand now. I open the door a little more, so I can slip in and get a better look at what it is. My 'Change of Heart' card, how did that get there? I take another step into the room and the door creaks. Damn.

My Yami hears that and turns, dropping the card. His dark brown eyes widen. I feel my heart start to race. Without thinking I bold back to the door.
