Guess what story won . . . CRIMINAL LOVE! Though I just got some awesome ideas for some SetoxJoey fics! If you don't like that pairing then you're out of luck for awhile because I have a SJ fetish! My plot piggys are working overtime! Don't expect lots of updates though, for I am a lazy bum! If you bug me enough I might get the next chapter out sooner! It's already typed, but you might have to wait a bit! SORRY! Look for Criminal Love coming to a computer right in front of you!

Chapter 7: Sorrow

"No, Ryou!" Bakura yelled as Ryou walked out the door.

"Ah Ryou, are you ready to go home?" Malik asked sweetly as Ryou took his arm and they walked out together.

"Um excuse me, Mr. Bakura you can leave the hospital now." A doctor said quietly while Bakura rushed out of the hospital.

"What was that about?" Joey asked clueless, but a few seconds later him and Seto were joined at the mouth again.

'How could I let this happen? Was I so horrible to him? Why didn't I think of Malik? He and Ryou had been friends forever. It's only obvious that Malik would have a crush on such an innocent soul, but why did I not see it before? Why didn't I stop it?' Bakura thought as he walked aimlessly down the street towards his now empty house. 'How can I get him back?'

When Bakura had rushed out of the hospital Malik and Ryou had already gone.

Once inside the house Bakura started pacing. "GOD DAMMIT, HOW CAN I GET HIM BACK!" He shouted after he had been pacing for two hours. "Shit, they could be making love by now! He can't take my hikari's innocence!"

"So Ryou let us have a romantic dinner." Malik said as he kissed Ryou.

Ryou was as lifeless as an inanimate object. If Malik hadn't been controlling him, he would have put up a fight when Malik had tried to leave with him.

Bakura walked into the living room. He remembered how he had set out the cookies and made Ryou cry. Just yesterday he and Ryou had sat on that very couch together, so happy. He started to cry on that very spot. The spot where Ryou had crumbled under heart brake.

He got up, he had to be strong. On the table was the book Ryou had gotten him.

"THAT'S IT!"

OOOoo what's it! Next chapter is the last chapter and you will find out if Bakura gets Ryou back.
