If I owned Yu-gi-oh! Bakura would wear more leather and would kick more ass! YEAH!

~April Roses~

Chapter- uh, whatever chapter this is, *scratches head* The chapter after the last! Yeah!

"You guys are so weird..." Amane said as she walked into the bedroom. Bakura and Ryou had fallen out of the opposite ends of the bed, eyes shaped like bowls. Ryou felt like he had went into cardiac arrest 3 times in a row! What the heck was Bakura doing in his room? "Ryou, chill, alright? You said it was okay."

"Yeah- but I was asleep!!!" Ryou shouted out in defense.

"And I had no self control when you woke me up!" Bakura also put up his defense.

"Uh-huh... what's the worse you can do? You're both boys, it shouldn't matter, unless your gay. Now, I'm not one to say names but Ryou's gay." Amane said jokingly, Ryou turned into a stone and fell over to his side. Bakura stood up. "Whatever. Can I go now?"

"Well, I was gonna go find a job today, so I was thinking you and Ryou go hang out and stuff," Amane said, snapping her leather wrist band on. Bakura shrugged and sat back down. Ryou was still stiff as a stone, Amane turned back to look at him. "Ryou, I was just kidding..."

"Eh-heh, I hate you."

"I hate you too Ryou-kuns," and with that, Amane left for downstairs and grabbed her jacket, stepping out of the house. Meanwhile Bakura and Ryou were still in the bedroom, an akward silence was taking place.

BRING!RING!RING!

"Excuse me-" Bakura said and took his cell phone out, looking at who was calling. He growled then turned it on, "What the hell do you want? Uh-huh, uh-huh, you are!? Why? Uh-... You bit a nun!?!!! Baka! Whatever possessed you to do that? And why the hell did the church let you in!? Ass hole! Hang on, I'm coming." Bakura shut his cell phone off then walked down the stairs to Ryou's house, finding his shoes and lacing them on. Ryou gave him a questionable look.

"Who was that?"

"Malik. He bit a nun because she didn't tell him the origin of pepsi so now he's in jail."

Ryou looked at him, "This 'Malik' bit a nun? Is there something wrong with him?" Bakura paused for a second, debating on whether he should speak about it or not. He decided to answer. "He's had a pretty screwy life, and ever since some 'incident' occurred, he never was the same,"

"What incident?"

"I've said enough, you want to come with me, Ryou?" Ryou smiled and nodded, he started putting his shoes on too. He didn't bother getting dressed, he looked fine the way he was, same as Bakura. Bakura stared at him, "But you have to promise me you won't do anything stupid like that escapade you pulled last night, got it?"

"I didn't mean to-" Ryou started, Bakura cut him short with a cold glare.

"Whatever."

"You surprised me by kissing me- tha- that's all. To tell you the truth, I don't know whether I'm straight or not, I don't know..." Ryou said, staring at the ground. Bakura started fuming. He was pissed about what had happened last night, he really didn't want to be reminded of what happened. All he could think was, How can Ryou be so stupid?

"You're an ass, you know that? Don't tell me you didn't like that kiss, you acted like you were enjoying it. Pulling me forward, not letting me pull away the first time? Get real Ryou. You're just scared shitless of having something different." Bakura said in a bitter voice, Ryou felt crushed.

"I am not scared!"

"Oh yeah? Then why'd you run away, Ryou? Why did you run so far away from me, and nearly killed yourself?! You're so God damn reckless!"

Ryou tired to fight back the tears. He didn't want to show his weakness to Bakura, any more than what he did last night. But he was so frustrated! Until just a few days ago, he didn't even know Bakura! He didn't really care! But then Amane just had to let them meet, and now it lead to this. Looking down, eyes shadowed by bangs, he spoke. "...if you hate me... THEN JUST SAY IT!"

"I don't hate you dammit! I don't know how I feel towards you anymore! Damn, I don't get it- something about you makes me so damn frustrated!"

"Well same here!" Ryou shouted, getting closer to Bakura. Without thinking, almost like a magnet, the two flung onto each other, Bakura toppling Ryou over and the two crashing to the floor, both in tears from their argument before. The two's lips touched then parted. That didn't last long because a few seconds later they were un seperateable. Bakura pulled away and stared into Ryou's dazed eyes.

Ryou felt around Bakura's back and shoulders. "...If I didn't like you, do you think I would have let you kiss me?"

"...I don't know..."

"Is this a good enough answer?" Ryou pulled towards Bakura and kissed him once again. When finally out of breath, they parted and looked at each other again. "So does that mean-"

Ryou smiled, "Yea."

RING RING RING RING!!! Bakura fell off of Ryou and grabbed the cell phone in his pocket, flipping it open he growled once again. Malik's voice could be loudly heard on the other end. "DID YOU MOTHER FUCKERS FORGET ABOUT ME!? YO!!! BAKURA! GET YOUR FAT ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" Bakura turned the phone off and got to his feet with Ryou and the two walked out of the house and into Bakura's car. Once seated, Ryou looked at Bakura.

"Hey- um, let's not tell Amane about it..."

"Huh? Why?" Bakura asked, boredly.

"She's going to freak out. That's why. And she'll most likely hate you for it too as well as me." Bakura nodded and started the car.

Le Old Castle (-_-; don't ask)

Amane jumped up excitedly. Yay! Finally, she found a job! It wasn't the best job a teenager could ask for, but at least she'd get paid. Starting tomorrow she would work at the front desk and seat people at tables. And if they needed a waitress, well, she'd do that too. At least it didn't require that much difficulty. She shook the manager's hand excitedly. "Thankyou! Thankyou so much! You don't know how much I appreciate this! Thankyou!" The manager dismissed her and she ran back outside. "I got a job! Heck yeah!" She jumped excitedly and took the bus home.

Domino Police Station

Malik gripped the cellar bars heavily and began to kick them, completely losing it. Where the hell was Bakura? Why wasn't he here? Letting out a heavy sigh, he let go of the bars and fell to his knees, lost in thought. Bakura probably forgot about him. But he expected that, since he was always in the way, he was always being forgotten. No one needed him. If it weren't for the drugs he had been taking, he would have been gone a long time ago. He shouldn't have a problem killing himself, he's done it to others in the past. But when he was about to do it, he found that he couldn't. Malik glared at the cellar floor, eyes flashing dangerously. Suddenly the cellar door was unlocked by a police officer. "No questions, just go to the front." Malik got to his feet and followed the officer. When they got to the front he saw Bakura and someone else.

"Hey pansy, come on, I bailed you out, happy? Now get your ass over here and never do something that idiotic again." Bakura muttered, still pissed because he had to pay the fine to get Malik out. As soon as they reached outside, Malik pushed Ryou onto a random car.

"Who the hell are you?" Malik asked, jealousy growing at an amazing rate.

Ryou blinked, "Ryou-"

Malik glared daggers at him, showing pure hatred. "What are you doing with Bakura!? You know what- I don't care, just stay the hell away from him! Got that?" Ryou blinked once again. What was going on? "I don't care if you're Amane's older brother- I want you to stay away from Bakura, got it!?"

"Wha- why!? Unless you have some reason, I won't." Ryou said, on the inside he was hitting himself with a hammer on the head continuously. What the fuck was going on? What was Malik talking about? Malik walked over to Bakura. "Who do you think you are!? How dare you! You left me there! I shouldn't have to call you twice, just to bail me out!"

Bakura gripped Malik's shoulder and threw him against a car, "First off, you shouldn't even be in there! Bossing Ryou around like that- no, the question is, who do you think YOU are!?" Malik shook his head and kicked Bakura on the knee then dashed off. Once far away from the two, he shouted.

"BAKURA BELONGS TO ME! SO STAY AWAY FROM HIM!"

Hurt, Ryou looked at Bakura, who was looking down at the floor. He didn't understand. This was all too fast. He didn't get it! What was Malik talking about? Ryou thought, then it hit him. Is Malik and Bakura- God! Ryou had changed his whole personality, his choice, for Bakura. He glared at Bakura with flashy eyes, hurt, hoping that Bakura would tell him what was going on. Bakura stared at the floor then looked up to meet with Ryou's eyes which were now tearing up. He looked away from him, Ryou still stared at him, still demanding an explanation. "Ryou," Bakura said, all choked up. Ryou raised his head, "Go home. Just go,"

Ryou froze, eyes growing wider from shock. This was all happening too fast. The same question roamed his head over and over.

What the hell was going on?
