Chapter 6 Broken Friendship And Broken Love

Marik came home dragging his feet and backpack behind him. The same expression on his face since the past few days. Ishizu took it no longer "Marik whats wrong?" "I...I..." "You what?"

Marik broke down into tears "I told Ryou I loved him...!!!!" "And?" she said approaching him and taking her brother into her arms. "Now he hates me!! He pushed me off and had this strange look on his face...I didn't know what to do so I ran off." "You mean Ryou just shoved you off?" "Yes...Hes been ignoring me the whole time," he took a deep breath in between sobs.

"Hes been hanging around with Yugi and," Marik choked on his words and Ishizu took him into her arms and cradeld the younger one like a baby. "Its ok to cry...let it all out..." she hushed him. "What should I do Ishizu? I love him...I really love him... Ryou..." he cryed. Ishizu felt her brothers pain but she had no idea what to do. Could it really be that she was in Egypten too long? "Marik?" "Hm?" he looked up at her those big lavender eyes swimming in tears which streaked down his soft cheeks.

"Give Ryou one more chance. Tell him that you love him. Set him down and TALK to him. Maybe you shouldn't be so direct." He layed his head back on Ishizus chest and mumbeld "Thanks sis." Before falling asleep.

Ryou layed on his bed sobbing like he was the last few days. He burried his head deep in his pillow and let all that he kept back today flow freely. "Why was he doing this to himself? Why was he hurting Bakura, his friends...and Marik...what were these strange feelings?

His Yami appeared and sat on the bed next to him. /Hey Hikari...whats wrong? / "Nothing Bakura just go away!!" /Not until you tell me whats wrong!/ His voice was demanding. "I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT OK?!!!" He yelled and looked at Bakura with fierce eyes. At first Bakura looked shoked then he smiled. /Ryou.../ He said cupping his face with his hand. "W..what?" /Why don't you let me take away your pain and suffering?/ "How?" /I ll give you something and you give me something in return./ Bakura said leaning closer and licking his own lips.

Ryou inhaled the smell of his Yami. Other than Marik Bakura smelled like fire and death. It wasn't the same...As Bakuras lips touched Ryous he felt the rough lips instead of the soft ones, the tounge that was way to wet and sticky instead of the smooth damp one, the taste of alkohol and spice instead of the sweet strawberry like taste from Marik...it just wasnt the same.

And Bakuras hands...they didn't touch him softly and slowley instead they were almost hurting him, he missed Mariks soft touch, his smell his taste it just wasn't the same. He snapped open his eyes and pushed Bakura away. "Its not the same!!Your not...your not...Marik!" /Marik?! Hell fucking no I aint!! Thank god for that too!!/ He yelled. "That's just it Bakura..."

/Wait a minute. Your not saying that you.../ "Bakura..." He stood up. "I now know what I want and how I feel. I want Marik Ishtar. I love him." He said blushing furiously. /Oh...so you want the blonde bastard? FINE!!! But don't come wining to me when things don't work out!!!/ He vanished in a rage.

"Bakura!!!"

Dream Sequence

"No!!!Don't hurt him!!! FATHER!!!!"

"MUAHAHAHAHA!!!Youll finally get whats comin to ya!!!!!!!"

Again before him stood his look a like, with the spiky hair and a golden rod. His father lying helpless on the ground in a puddle of blood. And Marik as much as he treid couldn't do a thing. "FAAAAAAATHEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!" he called as once again the black crushed him.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"

"Well well well Marik. Theres no one to protect you now!!! You belong to me!!!" his look a like walked closer to him. "That pathetic fool Ryou of yours will pay for taking you away from me!!!" "If you harm him I will KILL YOU!!!!" "Not if kill you first!!!!"

Dream sequence end

Marik shot up in bed. Sweat pouring down his face. "Why is it haunting me so much??...Who is this strange person and what does he want from me?" Ishizu sieghed heavily and closed the door. "Yami Marik..."

The next morning...

Marik had it all planned out. He passed a not to Joey with the name Ryou on it and Joey passed it on. As the piece of paper landed on his desk Ryou looked at it before opening it. Looking at Marik who was totally focused on the chalkboard or so it seemed, he turned back and read

Hi Ryou,

Please meet me on the bench near the willow tree.

Its important!

Marik

He turned the paper over and over expecting more but there was nothing. His heart hammered in his throat at the thought. Was Marik going to tell him his feelings one more time. He hoped he would. He felt the heat rising and was too excited to pay attention.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

After what seemed to take hours the bell rang and Ryou slowley packed his stuff making sure Marik wouldn't notice his excitement and his hidden smile. Marik who was hoping that Ryou would come tried to act as normal as he could.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was warm outside and on the bench Marik knew that they couldn't be overheard or seen, incase it came to something more. He sat and waited until he heard a voice "Hi Marik!!" "O hi um," Before he could say anything the person sat themself next to him. "Waiting for someone?" "Yes I am." "Oh well then I'll keep you company until they come." "No you don't have to really," He stopped as the person moved closer to him. "Ah hey!!" "Whats the matter?" they asked in a purring voice only inches away from his face. He tried edging away but couldn't because he was suddenly held tight. "Hey!!!" he said trying to force them off but before he could do anymore lips pressed roughly against his. His eyes shot wide open.

Just then Ryou came around the corner not being able to hold his smile back any longer "Marik?" he asked cheerfully looking at the bench and gasping.
