Ryou was greeted by the morning sunlight the next early morning, the dusty reflection coming through the glass window already gave his white locks tinted with a small faint of lavendar a bright golden glint color to the soft and silky hair. He awoke early the next day finding himself still being kept at the hospital.
He yawned loudly and tiredly stretched his arms out. Ryou didn't feel anything much different than before, but at least he was feeling alittle better than yesterday...
Ryou's half-way closed eyes glanced curiously around the room, to soon unexpectedly notice that a uncertain familar form was laying down right next to his own. He arched his sore neck closer to get a more better observation at the motionless body, and his eyes soon widened in shock as the boy finally recognized the sleeping body.
...It was Bakura sleeping peacefully. His head rested relaxingly on top of his own folded arms beside the teenager's small bed. The boy continued to stare amusingly at his darker half; he studied his yami's slow rythmatic breathing as he followed the small raisings and fallings of the other's slim body with his own stiff brown eyes without any blinking what so ever, expressing what it looked like he was watching and expecting to instantly find any sudden movements from the other's obvious actions. Nothing. He only saw Bakura twitch slightly, also along with the small quiet whimper that the boy just easily heard.
The soft and gentle expression that was presently casted upon his yami's usual angry face surprised him a bit. Yet, the evil boy looked alot like himself when he slept. The youth slowly reached his hand out to lightly and carefully trace the new fragile features with his fingers as sudden, but gentle emotion took within him while he was still greatly confused by the sight right in front of him. Bakura flinched lightly at the touch. He just wished that Bakura looked like this more often towards him, but he already knew that it was only for temporarily.
Ryou was also surprised that he was unexpected to find Bakura sleeping beside his bed; something that the teen had never done before. Ryou hesitantly tapped Bakura's shoulder, unsure of himself whether if he had shouldn't or have done it, obviously, it was already too late. However, Bakura didn't respond back, but only groaned quietly.
"Bakura...?" Ryou whispered. Bakura still didn't say anything. He gently shook him. Again, nothing. Ryou then knew what he had to do next.
"BAKURA!" Ryou screamed out loudly. Gasping, he quickly slapped both of his hands over his mouth in surprising realization. This made Bakura jump from the sudden outburst in complete shock. Ryou couldn't help but lightly giggle after seeing the boy's awkward and unusual reaction. He had to agree on himself that it appeared hilarious.
"What?!" Bakura shouted with extreme annoyance, not even recognizing who the person that just called his own name out. "Oh. it's only you..." came his more calm tone from his previous one as he just realized that ryou was already awake before him.
"...Bakura? What were you doing sleeping beside me? I thought you told me you were leaving." Ryou asked curiously.
"...What? What are you talking about baka?" Bakura asked bluntly while rubbing one of his eyes with his hands.
"Well, when I woke up... I saw that you were sleeping next to me..." Ryou told the still confused Bakura.
"Oh... did I." Bakura replied back sarcastically.
"Um, yeah." Ryou still didn't know what was going on.
"I took alittle nap last night, but I must of forgotten to wake up..." Bakura grumbled annoyingly.
"Wait, did you say that you slept beside me? So does that mean you were watching over me for the whole entire night then?" Ryou's mouth opened more slightly at the thought.
"...What?! Don't say crap like that! What are you talking about?!" Bakura could instantly feel his own flushed face burning up from the sudden blush that just unexpectedly appeared out of nowhere. Ryou was slightly disappointed. He would of been happy if Bakura did this for him, but of coarse... he knew Bakura still didn't really care about him.
Bakura cursed something under his breath while harshly grabbing the millennium ring off the table. He put it around his neck carelessly.
"W-Where are you going Bakura?" Ryou asked curiously while Bakura began walking out of the room.
"None of your business." Bakura said back harshly while looking over past his shoulder to eye the boy with a small unemotional glare. "...I need to be alone for a second." He spoke more softly at the end.
"Oh, okay, but promise you'll come back soon. Okay?" Ryou smiled at him sweetly.
"Whatever. Shut up," Bakura growled before walking out.
"I wonder where he's going..." Ryou thought suspiciously.
Meanwhile, Bakura was only outside Ryou's room just sitting in one of the chairs that were in the hallway pondering to himself. "...Okay. Did I sleep with him last night?! I can't believe I didn't even know about it in the beginning! Damn it, I should of never even been by his side, then none of this wouldn't of happened! What have I done to myself? Now he definitely knows that somethings up. I mean... of coarse, I was tired, but..."
"Um..excuse me Mr. Ryou? What are you doing out here?" He heard a familiar high voice say up just above his sitting form.
Bakura glared deathly up at the person who just interrupted his own private thoughts, his sharp deadly eyes expressed strong annoyance seemingly about ready to kill and torture the person who just bothered him.
"Oh, your the other older brother. Sorry again." the girl apologized. Bakura only ignored her and growled to himself silently.
"Why are you out here all by yourself? Aren't you going to stay with him in there?" the young lady smiled.
"I was just thinking about something, but why are you here?" Bakura asked back coldly.
"Oh, I just wanted to give this to him." She showed him a tray full of all different kinds of food. Bakura's eyes went wide as the girl brought it up to his face.
"I thought he might be hungry since he really didn't get to eat anything, so I brought him this." She smiled again.
"Oh, I... see."
"Oh! hey you, I'm alittle busy right now I'v got other things to do so could you please take care of this instead and feed it to him for me? Thanks." the nurse handed Bakura the tray quickly and ran off leaving even before Bakura got the change to say anything. He began stuttering.
Bakura stood there, not even bothering to move a single muscle while still holding the food tray in his hands. "feed him? FEED HIM?!" he screamed mentally at himself. "That stupid girl. What am I supposed to do with this thing?" Bakura bent down to sniff the food beneath him. "What the hell is all this...?" Bakura placed a disgusted expression on his face. Bakura found a trash can nearby, carelessly, he threw the food into it as it made a mess. "Ryou dosen't need this crap." Bakura wiped his dirty hands off on his shirt. "I can even find something more suitable than that shit..." Bakura knew Ryou had to eat something at the fact that the teen hadn't eaten anything at all, so he mumbled something while going off to search for some things that he could probably find in the meantime.
Bakura continued walking through the hallways until something finally caught his eye. He saw a young boy that looked about 8 years old sitting down on a chair about to eat a cup of ramen. Bakura obviously didn't know what it was since he couldn't take a better glance, but he only knew it seemed much better than that other nasty hospital food he got rid of awhile ago.
Bakura finally decided for himself as he started walking up to the small boy, a small smirk spreading across his lips. He snatched it away from the little boy's hand without even feeling guilty. "I'd have to thank you for having this in the first place..." Bakura scoffed.
"Hey! Gimme back my food now!" the boy shrieked frantically. He walked towards Bakura, kicking him extremely hard in the shins for a little runt.
"Owww!" Bakura screamed out in horrible pain. He almost dropped the bowl, but actually managed to hold onto it.
The little boy ran over and climbed up the white haired boy, sitting on top of the his shoulders. He began frantically pulling hard on Bakura's strands of white hair while crying loudly.
"I said gimme back my lunch you big. Meany. White haired. Freak!" the boy screeched again. Bakura struggled trying to get the little boy off of him.
"GET...OFF...OF ME!" Bakura tried to grab the kid from behind, but missed clumsily.
"NOT UNTIL YOU GIVE ME BACK MY FOOD!!!" the boy was crying boisterously while he pulled and stretched Bakura's sore face. "Ohhh, what's that?" something fascinating caught the boy's eyes. The boy quickly got off of him and excitedly ran over to the snack bar machine.
"Hey! These snacks are way better!" the boy gleed happily as he inserted the quarters into the vending machine. The little boy began dancing around happily while Bakura still held his face in pain. Bakura may have won the battle, but he got hurt badly by the little runt.
"Damn kid... I should kill him for what he did to me." Bakura growled while rubbing his head, then his thoughts suddenly went back to Ryou. "I still need to go back to him.... I'll take care of the little bastard when I return back later." he smirked before walking off.
#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&
Ryou sighed unpatiently. He had been expecting on Bakura to arrive back earlier than he had thought, but it appeared that it was taking his yami forever. Ryou wrapped his arms around his legs and slowly brought them up to chest. "I wonder where he went. What's taking him so long? Did he... go home and leave me here?" Ryou sighed disappointingly. His thoughts went back earlier from when he found that Bakura had fallen asleep beside his bed this morning. Ryou was still speechless and surprised from the situation, even the fact that Bakura told him that it was all a misunderstanding, Ryou still had a small suspicious concern that hid inside some part of him all along. Ryou, even surprised for himself, had started beginning to actually like him starting over the couple of days.
But... even how Bakura was acting these days made him more and more suspicious everyday. It appeared to him that everything had suddenly changed so dramatically. He still wondered, thinking what the possible outcome might of caused the reason, but he wasn't so sure for himself at the same time. Ryou knew that Bakura was struggling through something, but again, he didn't know what. But the only thing he had noticed was that Bakura had been acting as if he was really hesitant towards him ever since the night he got attacked by the gangs that Bakura had killed.
Ryou's thoughts were interrupted when he heard someone walking in. It was him.
"Oh Bakura. Where have you been? I was wondering where you went." Ryou frowned.
"Why do you always have to be nosey? It's none of your business." Bakura murmured angrily.
"Oh.... and what's that?" Ryou stared curiously at the object that Bakura was holding onto.
"Oh, this is... for you. The nurse told me to give this to you." Bakura lied suspiciously, denying that it was really him who found it in the first place. He slowly walked towards the white haired teen.
"T-Thanks." Ryou smiled, extending his fingers out to gently take the cup from the boy's hand. Ryou took the chopsticks in his hands to take a small bite out of it, but suddenly felt embarrassed by the fact that he soon noticed that Bakura was watching him doing this all along. Ryou blushed slightly before taking another small bite, but accidentally spilled it all over on himself, although he wasn't really paying much attention. "Ahh!"
"You are such a clutz, you know that?" Surprisingly, Bakura only chuckled lightly in humor while shaking his head before walking over to Ryou to quickly take some napkins off the table, helping the boy clean up the mess off him. Ryou lifted his head slowly, staring at the other teen in somewhat awe while Bakura continued helping him clean the mess from his shirt. "D-Did he.... just laugh at me? Of caorse, not in the evil way, but... a real geuine one?"
"...What?" Bakura finally asked curiously after realizing that Ryou had been staring at him for awhile now.
"Oh, it's nothing. Really," Ryou blinked then smiled innocently. "Um, look Bakura, you don't have to do this for me. I can handle it." he tensed.
"Why? So you could make the same dumb mistake?" Bakura rolled his eyes. "You can't even feed yourself."
"Err… you don't really have to help-" Ryou started but was cut off by a low growl from Bakura.
"Just hand me the damn thing," the yami demanded and Ryou flinched as he handed over the food in delight. Bakura snatched it from his hikari's extended hand. To Ryou's complete shock, and perhaps Bakura's as well, the bowl was lifted closely to Ryou's chin. The small hikari became practically frozen in shock.
"W-W-What are you doing?" Ryou glanced back down at the food and back to Bakura.
"What does it look like baka, I'm feeding you." Bakura sighed. Ryou was still really shocked by this.
"Um, Bakura, you don't have to. Really," Ryou stuttered.
"Don't argue with me." Bakura glared. "Here, just shut your trap and let me do this,"
Ryou gently nodded.
"Now, open your mouth." Bakura told him. Ryou didn't feel somewhat comfortable Bakura doing this for him. For Bakura to act like this towards him... didn't sound like his own evil self. Ryou was completely blown away yet again by the situation right in front of his own eyes. Ryou was speechless once again.
"Well, are you going to eat it or not?" Bakura insisted impatiently and Ryou broke out of his trance as he started slowly opening his mouth, fearing that Bakura might do something, instead, he felt the food gently touch his tongue. The white-haired teen couldn't help his face from lighting up, a small grin breaking through. And for some reason, Bakura had the urge to return the favor. Ryou began chewing his food quietly as Bakura continued helping him.
Unexpectedly, Ryou started feeling dizzy again like the other day when he woke up. He stopped eating the food beneath him and the surroundings around him and Bakura sitting in front of him blured his vision. He began to sweat again. Bakura knew something was going on by the expression on his sick face. "B-Bakura..." he groaned softly.
"What's wrong?" Bakura's eyes slightly widened. Ryou dazed weakly while his eyes flickered close. He suddenly collapsed, falling towards his yami exhaustedly, but Bakura quickly caught him in time as he dropped the food out of his hands, causing it to spill all over on the tile floor beneath them.
"What's wrong?!" Bakura shouted frantically to his the teen while still holding the lifeless boy in his arms.
Complete silence.
Ryou only leaning against him weakly with his eyes still closed.
"He's....he's sick again." Bakura's eyes widened.
He yawned loudly and tiredly stretched his arms out. Ryou didn't feel anything much different than before, but at least he was feeling alittle better than yesterday...
Ryou's half-way closed eyes glanced curiously around the room, to soon unexpectedly notice that a uncertain familar form was laying down right next to his own.
