Title: Destiny As We Make It
Summary: Shounen-ai/yaoi so for those who don't like this, please don't read and don't waste your time. Ryou Bakura is in love with his Yami but his other half just won't show his true emotions. Hurt and confused, Ryou begins to fall in love with another man because he thinks that Bakura doesn't really care for him. But when Bakura notices that his beloved hikari no tenshi falls in love with Seto Kaiba, he starts to show Ryou that he really cares. Now that he knows that both love him truthfully, who will Ryou choose?
Chapter5: Confessions
Ryou's POV
Seto Kaiba. Who would have ever guessed that behind the cold and insensitive mask is a very caring and understanding person? Who would have ever thought, he of all people, would want to spend quality time with a no body like me? I mean, doesn't he hate me for being so weak? Oh wait that's not Seto, that Ba- NO! I… I mustn't think about him… I sighed out loud as my thoughts drifted back to "incident" earlier. Never in my whole life have I felt so hurt. Why Bakura? Why do you torment me so?
"Ryou, are you okay?"
Seto looked at me with his seriously concerned blue eyes. Funny, his favorite card is the Blue Eyes White Dragon. I let out a little giggle, despite my inner demons. I just couldn't help but laugh at the thought… Blue Eyes for a Blue- eyed, I guess. Seto's been looking at me for the past two minutes, I realized. I stared back at him, noticing the for real for the first time the beauty that was Seto Kaiba. His stunningly clear sapphire eyes, his long dark lashes complementing his soft brown hair. At first he looks cold and scary, but once you get to know him, you'll know that he really has a softer, more caring kind. Reminds me of some one I live with… Ba-
"What's wrong? Ryou?"
I stopped in my tracks like a deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming car. Seto raised his eyebrow at me, showing that he clearly noticed my shock and guilt. If only I could tell what was wrong…
Seto's POV
I cupped his face with my free hand. Hmmm,,, just as I thought! His skin is smooth… wonder how good they are… mmm… ack! Must get rid of these stupid dirty thoughts! I glanced at Ryou and stare at him. He looks so sad.
"Gomen, Seto- chan, I didn't mean to zone out on you or anything," he finally replied. His eyes were downcast and he was looking really apologetic. He looks like a sad little pup-
"No, it's okay, as long as you're not crying anymore," I smiled a bit at him; his actions greatly remind me of Mokuba when guilty… and someone else…
"I… I was just thinking why you're here spending time with me," Ryou paused and looked at me, slightly looking agitated. I nudge him, urging him to continue. "What I'm saying is that you can be spending time with Mokuba and I think I have a vague idea of how much time off you have from your work. I'm quiet sure Mokie- chan will be pleased with your company," he said sheepishly as he looked at me with those wide brown eyes. I stare at him some more, clearly seeing that he want to change topics and forget about my question earlier.
"Mokie eh? I don't think so; I mean would you like your older brother there, watching you when you're out on a date with who you think is the love of your life?"
"What?! You know about Mokuba a- a-a-and"
"Yes, I kow about her and Ms. Wheeler (1)," I said as my famous smirk crept back to my face. "For a Wheeler , I'd say that she's a nice girl, er, lady."
"So you're okay with it? And do they know that you know about their supposedly hidden- from- their- big- brothers- because- they- could- not- get- along- and- would- probably- kill- each- other- upon- contact relationship?"
"Hm, yes I o know about their relationship, but only because I caught them making out in Mokuba's-"
"Nani?!"
"Heh, Mokuba's not as innocent as you think," I answer a slightly blushing Ryou. I smirk at him, mocking him for his 'innocence'.
"Hey! Stop that! Mou, yameru!" he said as he poked my raised eye brow. I laughed at his very kawaii childishness. (1) Somehow, I think that I will never forget this moment of happiness for the rest of my life.
Ryou's POV
I cannot believe it! Seto Kaiba, as in THE SETO KAIBA, that rich, snobbish, seemingly heartless jerk was actually laughing! And what's more is that he was laughing at me! I pouted at this; why was he laughing at me?
"You're so childish, Ry," he answered my unasked question as he reaxhed out to me. He smiled again; a very mischievous and devious smile this time. "You do realize that I want something in return for this?"
"Huh?" Something told I wasn't going to like what he had in mind. Then again, Seto is one very trustworthy man. He puled me closer as he began to caress my cheek. He smiled at me fondly, almost lovingly in a brother- like way. I blushed as he suddenly embraced me with his lean yet muscular (2) arms around my waist. What is he doing? Do brothers normally hug each other like this? I wouldn't know for the closest thing I've got to a brother is… is… Bakura…
"You okay?" Yes, I can see very well that he is very concerned for my welfare… but then again, I can't let him see my pian. I can't because he might try to get Bakura…
"Hai-hai," I stutter to him as I leaned into his chest.
"Is it Bakura?" I tensed up as I heard him mention my other half. How did he know? #It doesn't matter now, you have to tell him#, the voice in my head suddenly said. I mentally sighed for I knew that I the voice was right; I had no way out of this one now. I have to tell him, whether I like it or not, seeing as he already know that the cause is Bakura. #But what if he does something about your problem? What if he confronts Bakura? What if he tries to harm your yami? Or worse, what if Bakura harms him?# I remained quiet for a while. I considered the consequences: lie and be hurt by Bakura but assured that no body else will get hurt or blurt everything out and possibly be safe or possibly get everyone in harm's way?
"What did he do to you?
"Huh?"
"Ryou…"
"Oh sorry. I was just thinking of things, hehehe," I laughed nervously. I hadn't noticed but Seto has gotten nearly close to me. What am I going to say now?
"Spacing out now, are we?"
I could feel my face getting hotter by the second. Seto was really close…really really close…too close for comfort...
"Beautiful," he murmured as I felt his breath against my nape. How and when did he get so close? I hadn't realized but he had locked me into and embrace!
"Se- Seto- chan, I… we're… I, I…" my voice got caught in my throat as I felt his lips brush against my ear. Oh Ra! What is he trying to do? "Se- Set- Seto, n-n-noo…"
Seto's POV
I took in my little Ryou's exquisite scent. Mmm, he smells like strawberries. I wonder of he tastes as good (3)…
"Se- Set- Seto, n-n-noo…" Ryou mumbled as I kissed his ear. It's now or never.
"Ryou, there's something I need to tell you," I declare as I pulled away from him. I saw something in his eyes that made me stop, though. Fear. There was fear and uncertainty in his beautiful doe brown eyes.
"No, don't be scared of me, I won't hurt you, I swear," I tell him as I give his trembling hand a squeeze of comfort. "I promise I won't do whatever he does."
"I… Seto- chan, I, I'm not ready for this yet… I still…"he trailed off. His eyes were downcast and I could tell that he was very confused. I hated it when he's like that; I didn't want to see him hurt. I cupped his chin in my hand; russet eyes evident with fear met cerulean. I ran one hand through his milky silver hair.
"You don't have to say or do anything. I just want you to know that I care for you."
"Seto, I-" I cut him off, silencing him as I put my thumb over his soft, kissable pink lips. "You don't have to say you love me (4)… I love you, Ryou Bakura," and with that said, I sealed my vow with a chaste kiss that I know will last in my memories for an eternity.
(1) okay, Seto is major OOC here! Sorry!
(2) just so you know minna, this is the first time I didn't screw the spelling of muscular! Nyahahahahahahahaahhaha!!!!! I'm just so happy because every time I spell 'muscular', 'mascular' always comes out. Hehehehehehehehhehe!!!! Moving on…
(3) Seto is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(times infnity squared) hentai! Why? Cause I made him so!
(4) you don't have to say you love me, just because blah blah blah. You don't have to say forever, I will understand. Believe me… believe me… I think you guys know that song? Just came into my mind while I was typing… weird ne? does anybody here know the lyrics?
