Message Two: Makes the Day
He missed the bus that day, had to walk to school in the rain. Several people stopped and asked him for a ride; some just kept on driving, causing water to fly and cling to his clothes like annoying children.
He got to school with a smile on his face. You know why?
Found out he flunked that math test he studied for, turns out he studied the wrong chapters. There was a pop quiz in English, and he has an assignment for History worth ten percent of his mark; He received the papers with a polite smile and word of thanks. You know why?
There was a food fight in the cafeteria that afternoon, he had to finish classes smelling like mayonnaise with cheese, had to run away from that group of girls because they were trying to eat the food off his clothes. He ran laughing, you know why?
Today was his day.
It may have been raining that morning but the sun was back out again now. His friends said 'good morning' to him again as if it was a secret treasure, that made the day better.
Today was his day.
'You are loved.'
Everywhere he went he would see those digital words in the back of his mind. When he was talking with people he would be searching their face to find that certain sparkle in their eye. He thought he saw it, but it was for someone else.
That was okay though, Yugi wasn't his type.
And as he was walking home from school that day, he seemed to be walking with a feverish beat; people were smiling at him as they walked on by, because they saw this boy was about to break out into a dance.
He was that happy. And it was all because of a simple message.
It made his day.
So now he was wondering how he would go about finding out whom his secret admirer was. Would he be able to love him back?
And somewhere deep in his mind a voice spoke out in a nervous laugh, 'whoever it was broke into your room at night. Aren't you bothered by that?'
He was slightly surprised to find that he wasn't.
"I'm home!" He sang though there really wasn't anyone there to greet him back...
"Un."
But then again, "Bakura! I had the most superb day at school, what about you? Was everything top-notch?"
Bakura turned to him with an annoyed look but quickly the expression was replaced with false excitement and with a sarcastically happy voice he replied, "Oooh! You wouldn't believe the day I had! It was so exciting what with the rain until early noon and lets not forget the lack of food in this place. Oh! And the cartoons, the horrible re-runs of cartoons -they were having a marathon you know- but then to top it all off, you came into this living room, crooning with your sunshine smile and rubbing it in about your 'superb day'!"
Ryou smile grew larger, quite so much that Bakura was afraid the poor boy's face would crack and split open. The fact that the boy was smiling seemed to only aggravate him more, for his act was quickly thrown away and with a dead panned voice he drawled, "What has gotten you so floaty in the clouds?"
"Did you know you just talked to me with more than three sentences? That's a record!"
"Who are you, what are you on, and what did you do with my room mate?" Bakura asked in a weirded-out voice. He even scooted to the far end of the couch and was observing the smaller albino with a look one saves for an alien encounter.
"My name is Ryou James Bakura, as for your room mate he decided to take a happy pill. It comes in three doses and lasts for a very looooong time." He chirped, just to be a smart-ass.
Bakura narrowed his eyes, "Since when did you start taking drugs?"
Ryou's happy face dropped and his head fell forward with a sigh, one could almost see the sweat drop trailing down his hair. "I was joking. I'm just happy today."
"I see. What's gotten you so happy?" Bakura asked suspiciously.
"Did you notice anything out of place last night?" Ryou asked, not really changing the subject, more like giving it a detour.
"Ryou…" Bakura trailed off threateningly.
"I think someone broke into our house last night." Ryou blurted out.
Bakura's eyebrows rose pass his hair line, "And someone breaking into our house makes you happy?" He asked, shocked, "What is wrong with you today?"
Ryou grabbed onto Bakura's arm and tugged a couple times. Bakura didn't take the hint. "Up damn you!" Ryou finally shouted, causing Bakura to jump onto his feet and allowed him to be dragged up into Ryou's bedroom.
Ryou brought him over to the computer desk and pushed him down into the chair. He clicked open the two files and stood back.
Time passed.
Bakura gave a little cough, waiting for something to happen.
Ryou happened, "Read it stupid!" He finally ground out in a sigh.
Bakura flushed a slight pink but began reading the first document. By the time he was done, Bakura turned to Ryou with a strange look in his eyes, "Damn Ryou. That's deep…"
Ryou was taken aback by the sincerity in his dark's voice and blushed, "Thank you; now read the other one."
Bakura did as was told and did something very un-Bakura like.
"Aww…" He said while laughing.
I know it might seem like a lot, but it would be great to have some more feedback from people, some reviews would be lovely. I just don't see much point in updating quickly when it seems that not a lot of people are enjoying this fic, or any of my others ya know?
