AN: Hello! Welcome! Sorry for such a long wait. I really didn't mean to keep things left for so long at a cliff-hanger. I also am splitting this chapter up into two parts. I felt that I should have ended this chapter where I did, so chapter 3: part 2 will be out shortly. Anyway....Enjoy!
Chapter 2- part one
Berkeley looked oddly at Bikky for a few seconds before nodding his head.
"Yeah...hang on...."
Dee, not really noticing who was at the door, was still drinking his cup of coffee. He looked up when Berkeley walked into the kitchen. He had a look of surprise on his face.
"What's the matter baby? Who was at the door?"
Berkeley just met Dee's eyes and pointed towards the door. Dee looked suspiciously at Berkeley, and walked out into the hall. His eyes nearly fell out of their sockets.
"Bikky! What are you doing here?"
Dee couldn't make his legs move. He stood stunned as he waited for a reply from the boy.
"Dee...I just...I just didn't know where else to go. I..."
Tears began falling down his face.
"It all happened so fast...so very fast."
He gasped out in between sobs. Dee snapped back to reality and helped Bikky to the couch. The boy's sobs calmed down a little, which made speech better.
"Cal and I had an argument this morning...and...and she walked out. On today of all days.... she decided to walk out on me Dee!"
Dee nodded his head.
"What were you two arguing about?"
Dee noticed Bikky's expression go from sadness to anger.
"You. We were arguing about you! She told me I need to include you in my life, and I told her that I didn't want the man who killed what little hope I had of having a family, in my life! That's when she called me a heartless bastard and left me! Once again it's all your fault that someone important to me has left!"
Dee was prepared for the fist that came hurdling towards his head.
"Hang on Bikky! Bikky stop!"
Berkeley came into the room at that point and held Bikky back as Dee moved out of the way. Bikky began to cry again.
"Dee....Why did Ryo do it? Why did you ever have to come into his life? Why did you have to love him?"
Bikky curled himself into the couch and cried while Dee took in the things Bikky had said to him.
"You want to know why Bikky?"
Dee replied. Anger was apparent in his voice.
"Dee...Don't."
Berkeley tried to stop Dee from progressing, but once Dee's anger is ignited, it's hard to get him to cool down.
"I didn't ask Ryo to do it. Ryo couldn't take the fact that HE had told ME to get out of his life. He was expecting ME to go running to him and beg him to take me back. But you know what Bikky? I was so sick of his shit. I gave him everything...and HE was the one who couldn't accept himself. I couldn't chase after someone any more who wouldn't return the feelings after TWO FUCKING YEARS!"
Dee tried to keep his anger in check but the more he talked, the more his anger grew until finally...
"Maybe he wouldn't have asked me to leave him if YOU hadn't have always chimed in with 'Oh being gay is wrong' and 'Ryo what do you see in him'! You know what Bikky? YOU are to blame for Ryo not wanting to accept the possibilities of being gay! You were always telling Ryo to find someone else!"
"Dee! That'll be enough!"
Berkeley finally came in. He had had quite enough of this.
"You can't put any of this on Bikky Dee! None of it is his fault!"
Dee turned his anger to his lover.
"You want to take his side in this? You don't know shit about the things that little brat said to Ryo!"
"Dee! You're not listening to me at all! Bikky, or you for that matter, are not responsible for Ryo's suicide. Now you can either calm down and listen to what I have to say, or you can leave."
Dee stared at Berkeley for a moment, then pushed past him and grabbed his coat. Berkeley realized what he had just said, but it was too late.
"Fine! I will leave!"
"Wait Dee!"
But Berkeley was greeted with a slammed door.
