Chapter 3:Awaking in the hospital, and a unexpected visitor

He hasn't the slightest clue

On how much he really means to me

"I'm just telling you what might have happened to your friend, I don't mean to offend anyone." Said Doctor Kaze.

"Well why don't you keep your damn comments to yourself." said Bakura while crossing his arms and took a seat in the chair next to his lights bed.

"your worried about him aren't you?" asked Yugi quietly.

Bakura snorted "me worried, that's so stupid why would you think that?"

Yugi didn't reply but he could see the worry in Bakura's eyes.

Bakura kept glancing over at Ryou when he thought no one was looking. It was a nice change to see this yami showing concern about his light, even if he thought no one could see.

Yugi smiled at this.

"what the hell are you smiling about?" snapped Bakura.

Yugi just shook his head, the smile never leaving his face.

Just then a small groan was heard.

Bakura's head snapped around, it was a shock that I didn't break, to look at his Hikari.

/Ryou.../

Ryou groaned again, trying to talk but finding himself unable to, he couldn't even breathe. His eyes snapped open, he looked around the room as if to find himself. he didn't seem able to see anyone. he began to panic, the heart monitor that was attacked to him started to speed up.

"RYOU!" Yugi started yelling, hoping to get the other Hikari's attention to help him calm down, but it seemed to make it worse, Ryou could hear them, but couldn't see them. He began to panic even more, his heart beet went up to an alarming rate.

Suddenly doctors and nurses ran into the room, trying to get everyone to leave the room, but Bakura refused to move at all.

"let me go damn it! Don't make me send you all to the shadow realm!"

Ryou seemed to be trying to get to Bakura's voice, he was thrashing around in his bed, kicking several doctors and nurses in the progress.

/BAKURA/

hearing Ryou call his name so desperately made Bakura fight harder, and then he broke free, he rushed over to Ryou's side.

/Ryou, i'm here, everything will be ok, just stop kicking! you just kicked me/

instantly Ryou seemed to calm down a little, his mad kicking had stopped, he struggled to sit up, but all the wires prevented him from doing so, his hand reached out, as if to find someone.

/ Bakura...I'm scared, I can't see you...I cant find you/

"He can't see."

The doctors paused for a moment to look at Bakura, who was sitting at Ryou's side, even though many doctors were trying to get him to move, he just wouldn't budge.

/ just calm down/

/Kura...where are you/

Bakura let out a sigh, he reached out and grabbed Ryou's wondering hand.

/I'm right here/

Ryou held onto Bakura's hand as if it was his lifeline. his heart rate was going back to normal, and he wasnt moving around in his bed anymore.

/Kura...don't leave../ and after Ryou said that, he fell asleep once more.

"Tristen move you big fat head will ya!" Joey yelled pushing Tristen out of the way to look in the window to Ryou's room to see what was going on, but the window was to small for them all to look thru so they were fighting over it. Yugi was pressed up against the door, and he was standing on his tiptoes but he couldn't see.

Yami looked down at his light. "Yugi it's useless, you're just to short."

Yugi glanced over his shoulder "thanks Yami, you're the support i need."

"YES!" shouted Joey, finally getting control of the window. " and whadya know, it looks like Ryou and Bakura are holding hands!"

Yami knocked Joey out of the way. "well who would have guessed the tomb robber had grown so soft?"

"Here Yugi, you can see this way." Yami said while lifting Yugi up ("Yami! put me down!) and placed him on top of Joey's back (he was spiraled out on the floor right by the door so he could see into the window.)

"now that's cold ya know Yami."

Yami just smirked, while Yugi looked thru the window.

"Well, it looks like Wheeler finally has a purpose, to be a step stool."

the all turned and looked at whole had arrived.

"Seto Kaiba!" said Yami in surprise.

" no, the other rich guy you know." Seto rolled his eyes.

" stupid rich boy!" yelled Joey as he got up off the floor (Yugi stepped off of him when Seto arrived)

"I outta teach ya a few lesson about calling me a step stool!" Joey said while walking up to Kaiba, who just smirked.

" Don't waste my breath dog boy, I'm here to check on your little friend."

" Yeah! I wanna know how Ryou's doing to!" said Mokuba said stepping out behind his brother.

"Hey Mokuba!" yelled Yugi walking over to the teens.

"Hey Yugi!"

"So how's the geek doing?" asked Kaiba, who was trying to mask the concern in his voice. You see over the past few weeks he and the others have started to get along, he always fought with Joey, but that was just routine.

"he woke up a few minuets ago, but he started to freak because he couldn't see anyone-" Yugi was interrupted my Kaiba.

"that happens sometimes when the patient loses to much blood, but its rare, continue."

" but he just calmed down, thanks to Bakura. see" Yugi said pointing to the window that showed into Ryou's room.

Kaiba walked up to the window and looked in to see Bakura moving Ryou's hair out of his eyes with his free hand, his other was held by Ryou.

a ghost of a smile appeared on his face, "this is highly amusing."

Kaiba turned away from the door, and asked the group "what did the doctor say happen to him?"

" The doctor said that either two things happened, either he was attacked or-" Joey was interrupted by Yami.

"Or Self-mutilation"

Seto's head snapped around, his eyes hardened slightly "what?"

"that's what the doctor said, but we don't think so, Ryou wouldn't do that. "

" why do you think that?"

"because he's to...innocent"

"never underestimate someone."

"you think he did!"

"I'm not ruling anything out at this point."

IF you wait for me then I'll come for you.

Although I've traveled far, I always hold a place for you in my heart.

If you think of me, If you miss me once in a while, then I'll return to you,

I'll return and fill that place in your heart.

Wow! who would have guessed that Kaiba would be the first to figure out Ryou's problem, to tell ya the truth, I didn't even think about him being in this story, but oh well! and what about Kura...awww, he's turning soft on us!

donthaveaname: thanks for the review! . I'm glad you like it!

SugarHigh01: thanks Rebecca, and of course he wouldnt do that, what are you thinking! O.o

Rebecca Hall: your welcome! i'm glad you like it! man i feel loved!

BeyondContemplation6: lol, dont worry I think a lot of people think that someone they know is all innocent and stuff, even some people at my school think i'm innocent and stuff, it bothers me sometimes. and i'm glad you like it

Dark Magician Girl Hikaru: i hate it when people do that to, thats kinda why i wrote this fanfiction, well i got inspired after i wrote a poem, which will appear later in this story, and Kura...well hes just a idiot, he could tap into Ryou's emotions but he would have to go to Ryou's soul room, Ryou's been practicing hiding things from Bakura. and thank you for the review!
