Okay, I AM SO MAD AT MYSELF! I wrote about 4 pages for this chapter, and I thought it would be a good one…till I DID EVERYTHING WRONG!

1) I made it so they had a funeral last chapter so how could Leigh come back to life as I planned?
2) I was making Leigh live in a mansion, but how is that possible when she lives in an apartment? UGGG!

So I am re-writing this chapter now and that's why it took so long. Thank you everyone for being patient with me!

Thank you also to Kitty in the Box for being honest about the chief and adoption issues…ha. Thank you!

Chapter 6 of Losing Bikky

Everybody went frantic. Bikky was gone from them. Why is this happening? Who could've taken him from their grasp? Nobody could have been more scared than Ryo, he and Dee had called everywhere to set up search parties and currently, Dee was calling the hospital. Only one suspect could be named for taking their son, and she was dead, or so…they thought. Ryo waited for his partner to come back with news as he lay in bed. All he could think of was where his son could be.
"Ryo! She's not dead!" Dee called from the other room; there was a certain anger in his voice as he said good-bye to the doctor. Ryo shot his head up in fear. Not dead? Oh my god… Leigh had taken Bikky. Dee walked into the room, he immediately noticed the sadness in the room, but more of the anger built up inside Ryo. He didn't say a word as he sat down next to his love.
Ryo didn't have the voice to speak either. He got up and glanced out the window; the fragile snow fell to the ground, as if their lives were over, Ryo felt like falling too.

After searching through files for what seemed like hours when it was only minutes, Ryo had succeeded in finding where Leigh's apartment was. Being a detective had its most certain advantages.
"Here's some coffee, Ryo." Dee weakly smiled when he walked into the room holding two cups of built up caffeine.
"No thanks Dee, I've just found where Leigh lives." Ryo mumbled, he didn't feel like anything at 5:00 in the morning. Dee almost dropped the coffee to run over to his partner.
"You found her? YES! She must be there with Bikky! Why do you sound like this is a bad thing?" Dee asked while rubbing his love's back.
Ryo didn't reply, but merely looked up at Dee with a small smile. The taller detective set the cups down on the desk and gave his love the biggest smile he could muster. Ryo laughed and stood up to stare into those deep emerald eyes he loved so much.
"I'm just so happy, Dee." Ryo whispered, caressing Dee's cheek, gently pulling him into a kiss. De's arms wrapped around the blonde's back pulling him close as their kiss became passionate, as happiness swarmed through them. Silently Ryo pulled away to give a huge smile.
"Let's go bring him back, Dee."

A boy with golden blonde hair and dark skin opened his tired eyes. The room around him was full of boxes and chipped wallpaper, it felt like déjà vu. This room looked so familiar, but why was he here?
"Wait…I know this place…" Bikky whispered to himself as he slowly got out of the bed and looked around.
"Oh no…this is Mom's apartment!" His eyes went wide as fear overcame him.
"But…didn't Mom die? Dee shot her…" Bikky spoke softly as he looked out the rusted window.
"Yes, my baby, Dee did shoot me." A woman's voice rang through the room as Bikky quickly spun around with his eyes wide.
"Mom…how…" He started…but to be interrupted.
"I faked a funeral; I paid some people to pretend that I died, so I could get those queers off my back. And now I have you, we can be a happy family now." Leigh smiled as she walked toward him and held out her arms, expecting a hug.
"Mom…I love you and all, but I want to go back to Ryo and Dee. You're not…yourself." He stated sadly as he took a step back. "You have anger issues, and…you're just…!"
"Bikky, all I want is you back; I've missed you so much…" Leigh's voice escaped a sob as she fell to her knees and buried her face in her hands.

Bikky couldn't stand to her like this, or in fact, anyone like this, it made him feel guilty, and terribly sad. His mom wasn't like she used to be when they were a family, even though a dysfunctional one at that, she was always happy and never ever let things get her down, even through his father's abuse. Bikky remembered his mom as an idol, but… now, all she is…is someone who's sick, someone who shouldn't be out in the world. Leigh was dangerous, and her emotions took over her soul, she could really hurt Bikky if she didn't know what she was doing.
The boy walked over to his mom and wrapped his arms around her, right now all her could do was be with her, she would be taken away anyway for her psychological problems, and for shooting Dee, all he had to do was wait, wait for an ending to this horrible story.
For minutes they stayed like that, in a powerful embrace. Bikky had always wondered where his mom had gone to, and now being with her was hard, he'd always wondered if he would ever hug his mom again. He also felt very sad that Leigh would leave again, but this Leigh wasn't the Leigh she was years ago. Bikky sighed as Leigh's sobs started to slow down as she held onto him.

"Mom, please don't cry, it's going to be okay, just…please don't cry." Bikky whispered as the older woman slowly lied down on the floor and pulled her son down with her. She held onto him and silently cried into his shoulder. The teenager just held onto her just as fiercely, he closed his eyes, he didn't exactly know what to do, except comfort her, be with her for as long as they had.

The detectives stood at the door of the apartment, Leigh's door. Bikky was just beyond this door, he could see him again and take him back. But in a sense, Ryo felt awful doing this, Leigh had just wanted her son back, but shooting an officer and kidnapping was against the law, he had to do this. Leigh was also mentally unstable, who knows what she could do. A woman like her didn't need jail, or torture, but just some help. Dee's hands went to his partner's shoulders, for they had been thinking the same thing.

"Dee, this seems so wrong, I can't do this." The golden blonde whispered as his partner turned him around to kiss his cheek.

"I know, but she had gone against the law, let's have a couple of back-up boys arrest her, and we can get Bikky. You're too sweet you know." Dee mentioned a light smile on his face. Ryo nodded as Dee ordered into the walkie talkie for a couple of men to come up. Once they came, Ryo tested the door handle, and to his surprise to find it open.

They slowly came inside, and didn't make a sound. The two partners searched through one part of the house and the back up searched the other part, neither had seen Bikky or Leigh. With guns drawn, they all came to one door that was closed. Ryo took hold of the handle and opened it slowly and quietly.

"Leigh-" Dee suddenly stopped with shock on his face, two bodies were on the floor in a deep embrace, Bikky and Leigh. They appeared to be asleep, and Leigh looked like she had been in distress, her eyes puffy and red. Only Dee and Ryo proceeded into the solemn room, the blonde bent down and gently touched Bikky's shoulder and immediately his eyes opened and his eyes looked quickly to the older man, they both smiled in relief. Bikky looked trapped and his dad chuckled as he helped his son out of the woman's hug.

"Oh, Bikky, I'm so glad you're safe." Ryo whispered as he pulled the boy into his arms, Dee put a hand into his hair and whispered a "me too."

The other men woke Leigh and handcuffed her, telling her of her wronged deeds. Leigh immediately started to cry again.

"No, no no no! Don't take me away from him! Bikky!" Leigh screamed as they pulled her to her feet and towards the door. She put up a struggle and thrashed about screaming as much as she could.

"BIKKY! NOO!" She sobbed as the men pushed her away. Bikky still held onto Ryo as he couldn't see her face anymore, but he could still hear her, her words ringing in his mind, not ever leaving. Slowly he choked a sob that he tried so hard to keep in as he buried his face into Ryo's chest. The man held him close and stroked his back. For what seemed like the thousandth time, Bikky's mom was taken from him.

Last time Bikky had been so depressed, it didn't last long. But now Bikky couldn't find a reason to smile, he felt guilty, as if it was his fault Leigh was arrested. He knew that Leigh had shot Dee, had threatened both of his Dads' lives, she had also kidnapped him, but it was all because she wanted him back. And he didn't want to go with her, he didn't want his life to change from what it was, he loved living with Ryo and Dee more than anything. He just hated seeing her face; the fear in her eyes of never seeing him again, the way she just sobbed broke his heart into a million pieces. Her face when she yelled for him remained in his soul, and how he didn't go to her made him cry. I must be cruel and sick to do this to my own mother.

Ryo noticed his son's depression, he would barely eat at all and would stay locked up in his room. Leigh had made a major impact on all of their lives, Ryo just didn't know what to do to cheer him up, even Dee tried, pulling jokes that surely would have made Bikky laugh, but all they got was a frown. Dee walked into the bedroom where he saw his love sitting on the bed with his head in his hands. He sighed as he sat down next to him and pulled him into an embrace.

"Bikky's strong Ryo, he'll pull through." He said calmly.

"But what if doesn't Dee, what if he can't? I don't know what to do anymore!" Ryo responded, holding tightly onto the younger man.

"Love, when you're depressed, what cheers you up? What can make you forget about everything?" Dee asked warmly, looking into those dark eyes. Ryo didn't say anything for a few moments, but only looked up at Dee in his emerald eyes, and lightly kissed him.

"You." He whispered, Dee smiled.

"Then who does Bikky love?" The dark haired man asked, raising his eyebrows, Ryo finally got the picture and wide eyes responded, "Carol! I'll go call her right now!" Ryo quickly ran up to the door, but paused.

"You're good at this koi."

Ryo went straight to the phone and dialed Carol's cell number, once he heard her happy voice he asked her to come over, she immediately replied 'sure', after saying their goodbyes, the man felt suddenly happier, Carol could always bring a family back together. After about 5 minutes the broken door bell rang, this time it sounded like it was a cow, and both Ryo and Dee jumped up to greet the smiling girl.

"Hiya! What's up?" She asked, but her smile faded as the couple looked at each other, and she knew what it was. "Biks, right?" The couple nodded, as she looked towards his bedroom door, she looked back to Ryo.

"He's still super depressed? And you think I can help?" She looked sad and frustrated; Ryo put a hand on her shoulder.

"Well, parents sometimes can't fix this kind of thing, but best friends are the best medicine, as far as I know, the ones they love are better. I know you can get Bikky back to his normal self, and only you." He comforted, Carol took a deep breathe and put on a smile, she hugged the man and pulled him down to kiss his cheek in thanks.

"Well I'll try my best, and if he doesn't come out of that funk I'll have to force it out of him." She turned and walked briskly to the silent door, knocked, and heard no answer. She wondered for a second, but then let herself in. His room was a mess, clothes everywhere, cups scattered on the floor and it was so dark. Bikky was lying on his bed apparently with his headphones on and rock music blasting. Carol picked up some cups and threw them in the garbage, and then turned on the light. Bikky sat up and looked at Carol with surprise, groaned and put his head back into his pillow. The older girl sat on the bead and stroked her best friend's back.

"Bikky, talk to me, you have to get out of this depression." She said while turning off the music and taking it out of his ears so he could hear her.

"I don't want to talk, leave me alone Carol." He grumbled.

"No, I will not Bikky, sit up." She directed, grabbing his arms and pulling him up and into her arms, she embraced him from the behind. Bikky's back was to her chest and he could feel her heartbeat, it comforted him.

"Bikky, it's not your fault, whatever you think it is, it isn't." He tried to get out of her grasp, but she only held him tighter.

"Carol, its all my fault, she called out for me, she needed me, but I didn't go to her, I didn't…" He broke down into tears, the wetness climbing onto her arms.

"Baby, your wrong, Leigh had tried to kill Dee and Ryo, she wasn't who she normally was, she's has psychological problems, Leigh wasn't your mom anymore." Carol whispered.

"No, all she wanted was me back, that's all." He murmured, wiping the tears from his eyes.

"Well yes, but she was a lonely person, she just wanted someone to be with her, whether it would be a stranger or her son, she was someone who just needed help and comfort, she wouldn't be able to support you if you went with her, her emotions take over, Bikky, I read a book about this, in time, she would forget who you are." Bikky quickly turned to face her with shock on his face.

"What? She was going to forget me?" Carol nodded which caused Bikky just to sob more, for once in his life he cried his entire heart out, everything he had cooped up, not just from Leigh either, his whole life. He cried for his real dad, he cried for when he saw Leigh' suicide note, for he was the first to find it. He cried for when he heard his dad's abuse on his mom, the screams that rang through the house, and the tears that fell went for his fathers now, Ryo and Dee, when he thought he lost them both. Carol held a kiss in his hair as he buried his face in her chest, arms wrapped around her very tightly. She pulled him down so they lied in his bed, Carol wondering how he kept this all in, how he managed not to cry everyday, he was so tough, but just a boy.

Soon after Bikky's cries died down, the girl noticed that he fell asleep, she smiled and carefully got out of the bed and towards the door, and she turned to look at him one last time. His face held so much innocence, it held the pureness a boy should have, and she loved him for it, she loved everything about him. She knew the sadness in the boy's heart wouldn't diminish, for it doesn't ever for anyone including herself, but she knew he'd put it aside and live the life he was meant to live, the life he loved to live. Carol blew a kiss towards Bikky and gingerly left the room.

Her first thought was to find Ryo and Dee and let them know what happened, she looked through the living room first and saw no sigh of them, so she checked the kitchen and sighed, she want to have to look in their bedroom for them. She chuckled silently to herself.

The couple was at the table drinking what appeared to be green tea, Ryo of course sitting in the dark haired man's lap. Carol fought with all her strength not to let her laughter slip, but a chuckle intruded the silence. Naturally Ryo blushed incredibly and jumped from Dee to give the girl a hug. Dee just smiled and waited for the girl's report.

"He's going to be okay" Carol grinned, and continued, "all he needed to do was cry, and he didn't just cry, he sobbed. I'm so worried because he kept it all bottled in."

"Thank you Carol, did you say anything about Leigh's condition?" Ryo said while leading the girl to a chair, while sitting down in one himself.

"Yes, I told him everything, he deserved to know." The girl quietly said, the thread in her shirt appealed very interesting.

"But I take it that he didn't just cry about Leigh, there was more to it wasn't there?" Dee stated, he could be very bright if he wanted to be. Carol looked up at him and bit her lip.

"You're smart aren't you Dee, yes," She paused to look at her feet, "he bottled up whatever made him sad in his heart, and I guess his heart couldn't take anymore. But everything will be okay now, I'm sure of it." Carol put on a sweet smile to comfort the two guys. Ryo was relived that their family could be an actual family now; nothing was in their way anymore. His mood was happier than ever, and he felt like celebrating.

"Well princess, thank you, I don't know what we would have done without you, I've tried to talk to him but he just shuts me out, you've brought us back together again Carol, what can we do thank you?" Ryo grinned, Dee did too, he loved these moments where everyone could be happy, he wouldn't admit it, but he loved his family more than anything. He gently put a hand on his love's hand, which had been on the chair. Ryo locked fingers with Dee and smiled.

"Ryo you owe me nothing, I would have done this anyway by tomorrow if he was still cooped up, your family." She answered, but smiled as she looked towards the picture of them all in the park hanging on the wall. "But, since you asked, maybe we could all go out to dinner tonight." She laughed, her crisp eyes sparkled.

Later that evening Bikky was back to normal, just as Carol predicted. He and Dee had their daily fight and dinner had ended up in catastrophe, and Ryo had never been happier. They had been thrown out of the restraunt and decided to walk to the park. It was late out and the stars shown brightly through the dark abyss. Bikky and Carol had gone another path as the couple, giving each other their own privacy. Ryo looked over the grassy field to see the boy giving a kiss to the girl, a smile reached his face.

"What are you all smiley about?" Dee asked, his mossy eyes dancing.

"Bikky's just so happy now, it makes me happy as well." He looked over to the man, his arm wrapped around Dee's waist as they sat in the grass.

"Really? Are you sure you aren't giddy because you have an incredibly sexy man right next to you?" Dee suggested as Ryo began to laugh.

"Well, that too, because you're my incredibly sexy man." Ryo smiled as the two began to kiss, and he knew that they could be a family, for now and forever.

Holy potatoes that was awful, nothing made sense and it was just plain horrible. And I just didn't know what to do with Leigh, and I made it up that she would forget Bikky, that's not a real sickness or whatever, so please don't get mad. –dies- And I tried to make this long, but it wasn't, so I'm REALLY sorry. And I thank you readers that have made it this long, and thank you for tolerating the wait, I just got so stuck. Anyway, thank you and I'm sorry!

Oh! The original plan for the last chapter was for Leigh to hold some big party and Ryo and Dee had to go asundercover as strippers, haha, but it didn't seem appropriate for the story, and it just didn't make sense. .
