Ok... this is the second chapter... some people might have misunderstood something... Ryou is only one year younger than Bakura... so he is about 17 years old. So no incest here. Oh, and about the yaoi pairing... it is several, but one more important than the others... stay to read, and it will be clear.
Thank to the reviewers so far, hope more will come... or I'll end this story when it is most suspense.
Brother of mine
Chapter 2- to care to late
------------------------------------
Bakura yawn, and walk towards the café they always meet at… he was only happy that Ryou hadn't woken up yet… he sure enough wouldn't bring him anymore… he would just probably tell their father…
"Hello daddy boy." Marik tease as Bakura enter, so Yami and Joey start snickering…"We didn't think you would be allowed to be out this early…"
"Shut up…that was only because my father hate me… and that damn Ryou told him where the party was…" Bakura complain… and push Yami over so he can sit…
Yugi's eyes grow wide… and he look at the furious Bakura…
"Wasn't your father supposed to know of the party place?" Yugi whimper, hiding behind Yami… "I… called to ask you if the party where at Marik's… and I talked to him instead…"
It goes silent… before Bakura try to jump Yugi… being stoped by both Yami and Marik…
"Relax dude… It isn't so bad…" Marik laugh, "He always knew you where out on parties… so don't worry about that…"
"Don't worry?!" Bakura yell… "I gave Ryou the blame! And yelled at him before I said I never wanted to see him again!"
No one say anything… as Bakura walk out, and Yugi starts crying…while Yami was hushing him gently…
------------In Bakura and Ryou's house----------------
"Ryou… are you awake?" Bakura whisper, knocking on the door… he felt like shit now… Ryou hadn't told their father anything… and he had yelled at him… "Please Ryou… I'm so sorry… it was Yugi who told… sorry I yelled at you…"
Bakura push the door open, covering his nose as the smell of blood hit him… then he spot Ryou… laying still on the floor… the carpet under his head coverd in blood…
"Ryou!" Bakura yell , and run to him… lifting him over his lap… trying to find the puls… it was so weak… what had happened to him? He must have come to get help from him the night before… when he yelled at him… "I'm so sorry… I'll get help for you…"
Bakura lift Ryou up, and lay him in the bed, before using the cell phone to call a ambulance… then he sit down with Ryou… combing the blood coverd hair gently… how could this have happened? He couldn't have hit Ryou so hard could he? What if he had killed his own little brother… he had always loved his little brother so much… so why had he been like this to him lately?
"Niisan…" Ryou whimper, reaching out for the blood coverd plush of Bakura… then clutching it close… then he lay still again… breathing getting more weak…
"Ryou! Say something!" Bakura yell, and shake him gently… he couldn't die… he.. didn't want his little brother to die… "Please Ryou… say anything… that you hate me for hitting you… just don't stay silent… please… show me that you can hear me… please…"
A cold hand move… and brush Bakura gently over his cheek…leaving a warm trail of blood… before falling limp to the bed again… Ryou was happy… Bakura cared for him… he really did…
"What the hell is happening here?"
Bakura turn around, and look at their father in the door… in his rare condition of soberness…
"Ryou… he has been throwing up blood all night…" Bakura sob, drying of his own tears… he felt so horrible… it had to be his fault… "He collapsed on the floor…"
Bakura look confused at the terror in their fathers eyes… not of guilt… or pity… but in fear…
"Have you… called the ambulance? Or… the cops?" He get forth… reaching out to find something to hit with… getting a hold of a walking cain in the closet…
"Off course I called the ambulance!" Bakura yell. "He will soon stop breathing!"
"Call them… and say it was a false alarm…" The shivering man whisperd… taking a few steps forward… clutching the cain… "We can deal with this…no one will miss him…"
"You… you where the one hitting him!" Bakura yell angry, getting to his feets… "He is your youngest son you bastard!"
"He is just a mistake! He killed his own mother! Your mother… so why care for him?" The old man yell, and is ready to hit… but Bakura tackle him to the floor, and hit him hard… time and time again…
"He is my… little brother damnit… and he is your son! Damn sick old twisted son of a bitch!" Bakura yell, hitting over and over again… "How many times have you hit him? Two or three?"
"Heh… each time you were out partying… he would never tell me where you were…so I tried to beat it out of him… but he never told, and the only thank he got was to be beaten by you to… see… you hate him as much as me…"
Bakura get up… Ryou never said anything… even thou he was beaten up by both of them… why? Was Ryou really that found of him?… He didn't even know that Ryou still had that plushie of him… his mother had made it for him… but he tought Ryou would be happy for it… since their father always yelled at him…
"Ryou…" Bakura whisper, sitting down beside him again… he didn't know why… but… it looked like Ryou was smiling… face hidden behind the plush…
Then he hear the ambulance… feeling a little hope rise… they could help Ryou… his little brother didn't need to die… the door open, and the ambulance people come in the door…
"What has happened?" They ask, and look from the bloody Ryou, to the man on the floor…
"Our father… he has been hitting my little brother…" Bakura whisper, as the doctor start checking on Ryou… "He seems to have trouble breathing…"
"We will get him to the hospital right away…" The doctor order, and the men with the stretcher come in… lifting Ryou gently up… "And someone call the cops untill this bastard wake up!"
Bakura follow the streatcher men, and jump into the ambulance… no way he would leave his brother now… he would stay with him… no matter what…
--------------Later------------
Bakura look blankly into the wall… the doctors words enterd his mind one by one…
"Sorry…. We did… everything we could… but… he had to great a blood loss…. And his chest was almost destroyed…"
"I… want to see him…" Bakura whisper, and get up… walking silently after the doctor… this had to be a nightmare… it had to… his brother couldn't be dead… he couldn't…
"Here… we will have to move him to the morguary soon…" The doctor whisper, and leave Bakura alone in the room… where a coldly pale Ryou lay… still clutching the plushie…
"No… this isn't true…" Bakura whisper, and sit down on his knees at the bed side… sobing against the cold hand… this wasn't true… it was just a cruel dream… maybe he himself had passed out from to much drink on the party, and nothing of this had really happened… he didn't want this to be real! "I'm so sorry little brother… I should have cared more for you… I'm such a big idiot… I should be the one laying here… not you… not you…"
----------The night of the next day--------------
Bakura hadn't moved from the coach at all… even thou his friends was trying to get him up… he didn't feel like moving at all… he felt so… rotten… he had overlooked his baby brothers pain… just because he himself wanted to have fun…
"Let us leave him a little…" Marik suggest… and they walk to the kitchen… where Yami and Tea tried to cheer up Yugi… who had cried since Bakura had yelled at him in the café… they had all been shocked when Bakura had told them what had happened… they couldn't believe someone could beat a kind person like Ryou…
"Do you think we should make food for him?" Joey ask, and look at the others… "It can't be good for him if he don't eat anything…"
"I'll make something…" Tea whisper, and start on some noodles… "We should all stay here tonight… it has started raining…"
They all nod… almost jumping to the ceiling.. as they heard a knock on the door… all ready to run and open…
"Bakura is opening…" Malik whisper… and sigh… as they all relax again…
Bakura couldn't stay still anymore… he just needed a exuce to move… that was the reason he walked to open the door… hoping his father had been let loose so he could get him down for good… but the sight that meet Bakura when the door opend… was quite different…
