Chapter 2

Last time:

"Ryou would you like to see your friends again?" he asked.

"O- of course, why wouldn't I?" I replied.

Now on with the story…

~*~Bakura's POV~*~

They would be great tomb robbers. Maybe they will help me rob tombs of course I'd have to test them first. "I just wanted to know if you would like to see them." I said.

"Oh. Well yeah I want to see my friends, but my happiness isn't what is important, is it? I am just a slave and I live to serve." he said smiling at me slightly.

"Ryou," I growled. He looked up at me with scared eyes but he kept a calm face.

"Yes, Mas-Bakura?" he asked

"I don't ever want to hear that you think that your happiness isn't important! Your happiness is important also. I want to be your friend like Yugi was. I've decided what you are going to be doing here." I said pausing.

"What?" he asked nervously.

"You're going to be my personal servant and the cook like you were in Yugi's house."

"Really?" he asked.

"Yes." I replied. I hope he is a good cook because Tea's food is horrible

~*~Ryou's POV~*~

I can't believe it he wants to be a friend like Yugi was and he wants me to be his personal servant and be a cook! This is weird he isn't anything like the others said he would be like. Oh well.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yes," he replied "now since you are going to be my personal servant you will be sleeping in here. Later I will have Tea and Yami bring a bed, some blankets and pillows." he said

"Okay" I said. "Um… Bakura, do I have to cook today?" I asked.

"No. It is getting a little to late for you to start cooking." he replied. "Did you bring anything with you?" he asked.

"Yes I did." I replied.

"Where is the stuff you brought?"

"I believe it is still with Yami."

"Do you have anything on you or in your cloak?"

"Yes"

"May I see the item or items?"

"Sure." I said taking off the bracelet on my wrist. The bracelet had 3 red strings, 1 black strings, 4 white strings and 4 cream colored strings all interwoven. Then I moved my sleeve up higher and removed the wrap on my arm. The wrap had 5 red strings, 4 black strings, 2 white strings and 2 cream colored strings all interwoven like the bracelet.

"What are they?" Bakura asked.

"These were both made by my friends." I began. "The wrap they made for me to pull back my hair while cleaning because they noticed my hair always got dirty. You could say it is a reminder of the beginning of our friendship. Then the bracelet was made right after they found out I was going to be sold. You could say it is a symbol of our everlasting friendship." I said as my eyes began to tear up.

Bakura sat thoughtful for a few seconds before he asked if I would turn around.

"Okay." I said turning around feeling a little confused. As soon as my back was turned I felt a weight lift off the bed. I wonder what he is doing I thought.

A little bit later the weight came back. "Just relax and tell me if I hurt you. Okay?" Bakura said.

I was a little bit confused at what he was about to do. But I nodded. Then I felt a brush touch my scalp and start to run down gently. I hardly ever have tangles in my hair. I always make sure to take care of my hair. It was very calming and relaxing.

~*~Bakura's POV~*~

I felt myself go soft when Ryou started to tear up. I thought about that wrap that he had and I had an idea. I asked Ryou to turn around. He said "Okay" and turned around. As soon as he was completely turned around I got off my bed and went to my dresser and took a spare brush and went and sat down on the bed again.

I didn't know if his hair was tangled or not and he looked a little tense so I said "Just relax and tell me if I hurt you. Okay?"

I waited until he nodded. Once he did I put the brush on the top of his head and gently brought it down through his hair to make sure I didn't hurt him. I was quite surprised to find that there were little to no tangles and the tangles that were in his hair were very small at that. I then felt him just relax completely and I could have sworn I heard him purr and I felt him lean into the brush a little bit.

"Ryou, why aren't there many tangles in your hair? Everyone else in this house has at least one good sized tangle but you only have small tangles." I asked still brushing his hair though there was no point.

I heard him giggle a little and say "the reason for that could probably be that I take very good care of my hair. I brush it every day making sure to get out all the tangles and I use oils in my hair when I take a bath. It works very well." he repiled.

"What type of oils do you use on your hair?" I asked curiously.

"Mostly rose, but I also use any other flower scented oils. They have the best smell and they work a lot better then any other oils. I've tried them." He said.

It was then that I noticed that I was just brushing his hair for no reason, but I had to finish what I was going to do.

"Ryou will you hand me your wrap please?" I asked.

"Okay." he said as he handed it to me.

I pulled up his hair and tied it with the wrap at the base of his neck.

"Turn around so I can see you." I said.

He turned around and he looked kind of happy not to mention beautiful.

"Thank you Bakura." he said.

"Beautiful" I said under my breath and I was sure that my eyes were slightly larger than usual.

"Why don't you go look in the mirror." I said pointing to the mirror above the dresser.

He got up and looked. When he first looked he gasped. "I never got a good look at myself with my hair pulled up. No wonder everyone was staring at me when I went to the market with my hair like this. They thought I was a girl."

TBC…

YIIN: Talk about their hair enough?

IIN: I didn't mean too! I'm sorry it was so short, but I promise to get the next chapter out soon and it should be longer too. I actually know what I want to happen, well most of it anyway, I just need to get all the ideas to fit. Any thing else I forgot?
