Part 1:
 Chapter Three: The Flashback.

O.k., by now we all know I still have been unable to retype my "Profile", wah, or use the "Quick-Edit" on Stuff didn't want to upload right either. So I had to reload the
same chapter three times. Grrrr! So if you notice any 'bloops', laugh. If they're underlined, it means I caught them, but left them there for your amusement. Heeee! Hope ya don't mind that.

I'm still trying to figure out what words like "yaio" and stuff means. I know what "Bishoujo", "Gakuen Genre" and "Shoujo" mean. 'Bishoujo' means, "young, pretty girl", 'Gakuen Genre' means, "school life genre", and 'Shoujo' means, "young girl". They were on the inside front cover of a book I bought called "How To Draw Anime & Game Characters Vol. 1. Basics for Beginners and Beyond." (Yes! I love drawing! Someday I want create my own comics! But anyway, if you know any of those other words, you know what to do.)But let's get on with it shall we? You wanna read the story not this stuff. To my R's&R's: Thank youuu!

Disclaimer: O.k. We all know none of us own "Yu-Gi-Oh!" But if we did...

Summary: Ryou's having a flashback of the previous night, Sunday, while brushing his hair. That's pretty much it for this chapter. Next chapter takes place at school and Yugi'll probably show up in that. Maybe Yami...hmm...me love Yami...sometimes... Chapter four will be good.

Flashback:

Joey had gone out and told Ryou that he'd be home late. He grabbed his coat, his wallet, and headed out the doo. (ha-ha. I meant 'door'.) "Bye, Joey." Ryou said kissing Joey on the cheek. "What time will be back?" "Oh," Joey slipped on his shoes. "Probably around midnight." "You know you shouldn't stay out so late." "Ah, don't worry about it Ryou. It's not like there's any vampires out there that's gonna get me." "No, I didn't mean that. I mean it's a school night. We have school tomorrow."

"Ryou, for once, get your head outta school. Go focus on something else." Joey opened the door. "Besides, it's still the weekend until midnight. Don't worry." Ryou smiled. Sometimes he loved how Joey took things all in stride like that. "O.k." he said giving Joey another kiss. "But could you at least tell me where you're going?" "Nope. Sorry. It's a secret." "But why?" Ryou wanted know. "Just because." "Because why?" "Because," Joey said kissing Ryou on the tip of his nose. "I said and it's none of your business."

"Oh." said Ryou feeling a little hurt. "I was just wondered in case something came up..." "Look, if something comes up, call Yami.Ya know he'd be happy to help ya." Ryou looked at his feet, still feeling a little hurt. But obviously, Joey hadn't noticed. He put his hands on Ryou's shoulders. "Ryou, you need to relax. Why don't you take a bubble bath or something, o.k?" "Uh, o.k. I'll do that." "Yeah, while you're at it, you could make me some supper too. I might be hungry when I get back in." "O.k. Joey." "Thanks." Joey kissed Ryou on the lips then headed out the door.

Ryou watched Joey disappear around the corner, closed the door, and locked it. "I wonder where he's going..." Ryou walked into the kitchen. "Maybe I should call Yami..." Ryou said eyeing the phone that hung on the wall next to the fridge. Then he shook his head. "N-no. I don't need to have my friends follow my boyfriend around town. I trust him." Ryou bent down, opened the cubboard, and pulled out a kettle. "Besides, Joey'd just get mad if I did that and then he might not talk to me." Ryou filled the kettle with water and placed it on the stove.

Then he got out the box of spaghetti. "I hope Joey doesn't mind having noddles for dinner." Ryou waited until the water started boiling, then added the noodles. "Yup." he said to himself stirring them in boiling water. "Joey loves me and I love him. Therefore, we can trust each other." Ryou looked down at the noodles. "So I guess it's o.k. if he wants to go out and not tell me where. Sometimes I like to go places without him knowing. I mean, just because we're dating, doesn't mean we have to run and tell each other what we're doing all the time.

"If we did, then we'd never have any freedom and we'd probably end up smothering each other. That wouldn't be good for the relationship." Ryou stirred the noodles some more. When he finished, he ate his fill and left the rest for Joey. He had then taken the bubble bath Joey had suggested and afterwards, hit the books...

End Flashback:

"Hit the books..." Ryou whispered setting the brush down on the dresser. "JOEY!" he yelled. Joey actually jumped at the sound of Ryou's voice. "You liar! I did too study last night!" Joey clapped his hands together, rolled over onto his back, and laughed. "Ha, ha! I gotchya! Ah-ha, ha!" Ryou growled deep in his throat. "Wheelerrrrrrrrr!" Then he pounced. Joey screamed. Ryou grabbed a pillow and held it over Joey's face. "You little!" he yelled at him. "Ah! Help! I've been attacked by a crazed lunatic with a pillow! Ahhh!" Came a muffled voice from under the pillow.

Ryou removed the pillow from Joeys face. After all, he didn't want to suffocate him. No. He wanted to whack him. Ryou grabbed another pillow and started swating Joey with both of them. "You little stinker..." he snapped at him. "Ya gotta admit," Joey said between laughs, "I gotchya good." Ryou grrrr'ed and continued whacking him with the pillows...
