He looks so adorable when he sleeps. He always looks adorable. He has a small smile on his face. "Pleasant dreams Hikari," I whisper.
I was so proud when he beat that girl Anzu today at dancing. He looked so graceful, like he always does. So beautiful…
And the act he put on against those girls… it felt wonderful. That kiss… so soft, so gentle, so fragile, just like him. Just like him…
He is my desperately beautiful, pure-of-heart fallen white angel. (1)
And with these pleasant thoughts, and with Ryou in my arms, I fell asleep.
My eyes slowly fluttered open and I realized that I had a strong chest for a pillow. I looked up and saw the sleeping face of Bakura. His snow-white hair fell gently into his face and he looked at peace, for once not thinking about pain, destruction, doom and death, but mostly doom.
(an: "doom and death but mostly doom" is a phrase made up by my classmate Dillon. Any person who copies that will have to give credit to me, under the name 'Ceribi Motou' and say that it belongs to my friend Dillon. Anyway, on with it):
I wondered why Bakura didn't put me in my bed and go to his soul room. Not that I'm complaining, of course.
I would have thought that this was a sign of affection, an answer to my prayers, that he really did love me back. But I don't. Because I doubt the spirit would ever love.
"Bakura," I whispered. "Bakura. Baku, wake up."
Bakura's eyelids fluttered and he woke up with a duel monster of a yawn (an: eh, don't mind my bad pun). He looked at me sleepily. "Morning Ry." With another yawn, he stood up (me still 'conveniently' in his arms) and walked outside of my room.
"Kura, you're still holding me."
He didn't say anything. He walked in the living room and then we heard a "HI YOU TWO!!!!!!!!!" shouted by (I identified the voices) a sugar high Mokuba, Yugi and Malik.
Bakura jumped (quite literality) five feet in the air.
"YOU SCARED THE !#&ING HELL OUT OF ME!!!!!!!!!" he screamed.
"OI SOUL STEALER!!!! YOU ARE TAINTING MY INNOCENT HIKARI'S EARS!!!!"
"HELL WITH YOU AND YOUR SHORT HIKARI PHARAOH!!!!!!!"
"BAKURA!!!! SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!! YOU ARE TAINTING MY YOUNGER BROTHER'SEARS!!!!!"
"SHUT THE !#& UP KAIBA!!!!!!"
Malik, getting happily excited, started to swear too, just for the fun of it.
"WILL YOU ALL PLEASE JUST SHUT THE !#&ING HELL UP?!?!?!" I finally bellowed.
To my amazement, they listened. "Wow Bakura," said Anzu, stunned.
"I pick up things from him," I said, shrugging, and pointed to Bakura.
Bakura had been silent, but he suddenly broke into tears and hugged me tightly (and I was still in his arms). "Ryou! I'm so proud of you Hikari!"
This gave such a startling reaction that I laughed. Yami fell down with a crash, Yugi, Malik, and Mokuba's sugar highs stopped, Malik and Jounouchi fainted, Kaiba raised an eyebrow (yes, Seto Kaiba rose an eyebrow!) and Mai and Shizuka gaped.
Bakura wiped a tear away and put me down, only to burst into tears of pride and joy again. "Kura, c'mon, you're making a scene," I muttered.
Yami was so shocked by this time that he fainted along with Malik and Jounouchi, who had come back, only to faint again.
Bakura stopped crying, but burst into laughter when he saw Yami in a dead faint. After the three fainted ones had been risen, Yami frowned at Bakura's sniggers.
"The All-High-And-Mighty Pharaoh fainted," he sniggered.
"Aw, Baku, give it up!" I said, exasperated. "I'm going to take a shower and then we can decide what to do today. Give me 15 minutes."
15 minutes later I came out in my usual outfit and Bakura took a shower after me. I lay on the couch. When he came out, he moved my head, sat down, and put it on his lap. I turned bright red. "Baku…" I muttered.
"What?" he retorted. "You're my hikari; everyone else will just have to live with it."
Suddenly Jounouchi came waltzing from the kitchen with loads of food. "Breakfast is served!" he declared.
"Oh no, I'm not eating anything the mutt made." Kaiba wrinkled his nose in disgust. "It'll taste like dog food."
"Seto! You've eaten my cooking before and loved it!" bellowed Jounouchi, blushing.
"Since when have you started calling Kaiba by his first name?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. I added, "And since when have you started to cook for him?"
"Shit…" muttered Jounouchi, blushing and looking down. Kaiba looked away, also blushing.
"YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT YOU TWO HAVEN'T TOLD THEM YET?!?!?!?!?" screamed Mokuba.
"Mokuba … please don't…" muttered Kaiba.
"You said that you would!" Mokuba angrily turned to us. "They hooked up some time back."
"Finally!" I blurted out. "I was waiting for you two to get together!"
"Congratulations," said Yugi eagerly. Suddenly I had an idea and conveyed it to Bakura. Mentally his jaw dropped.
((Him… and him… together?))
/That's the plan, Baku./
((… You thought of this?))
/Yes Bakura…/
((…Go for it.))
So I did.
I got up and walked to Yugi and Yami, who were near each other. "So…" I said slowly to Yugi. "What about you and Yami?"
Yugi blushed bright red and buried his face in Yami's shoulder. The said spirit blushed. Once Yugi realized what he had done, he jumped away.
"Great Scott!" I said, with a grin. "You haven't yet? Here; let me help you."
I took Yugi and Yami's heads and pressed their lips together. I backed away and we watched.
Of course, you should know by now that Yami held on to Yugi and Yugi melted into Yami, and that they hooked up, but I'll tell you any way.
Yami held on to Yugi and Yugi melted into Yami and they hooked up.
There.
"My job here is done," I said with a smile.
Later that evening, after everyone left to go back home and sleep, Bakura put me on my bed and slid over next to me, hugging me close to himself like a teddy-bear. "Night Ry," he said.
"Night Baku," I replied, surprised, but pleased, and blushing.
He fell asleep immediately. I snuggled closer to him, and slept peacefully.
