Masked Emotions

Chapter 5...Forgotten

Ryou sat in his room looking around. He had his first dizzy spell and was pretty shook up. Things were getting harder now but he couldn't allow himself to eat. No eating was a privilege he didn't have and probably never would. Ever since his father started leaving more often and taking longer to come home he had started eating less and less and now he didn't eat at all.

It was hard being by himself and it was worse knowing his father didn't come home because he looked so much like his mother. He loved his dad more than anything and strived to be perfect for just for him. Maybe that's why he liked Bakura so much. He was the first person to ever show him that kind of attention. Bakura made him feel wanted and they just met each other. It made him wonder if it could work. If Ryou could actually experience love...No that could never happen. He wasn't allowed to feel such an emotion. Isn't that why he punished himself.

Ryou got up going downstairs to look at the time. It was only 5:oo he still had plenty of time.

"Oh shit" he said cursing for the second time that day, "I was supposed to look over my music for the concert since it was moved to tomorrow"

He slowly got up grabbing his music and began practicing. An hour later he heard a knock at the door and opened it to show Bakura.

"Hi um...come in I'll be ready in a second I just need to grab my coat" Ryou said blushing. 'He hasn't said anything and I'm already blushing'

"Hey, was that you I heard singing" Bakura questioned and Ryou went redder.

"Yes it was, did you like it" he asked shyly.

"Yeah you have a good voice" Bakura said moving closer to him than they were before.

"I-I'll be performing tomorrow during lunch if you want to come and listen" Bakura looked thoughtful for a moment, "I mean you don't have to I was just wondering" Ryou stopped talking as finger was placed on his lips.

"I'd like to listen to you sing again" Bakura smirked at how dazed out Ryou looked. He quickly replaced his finger with his lips before the other could protest. They stood there lips pressing together before Bakura pulled back looking at Ryou.

"What was that" Ryou said quietly.

"Well I call it a kiss but if you know another name for it I'm all open for new things" Bakura answered smirking indicating that new things meant Ryou. Ryou looked down thinking about this. 'Could Bakura like me" he thought, 'Gods I hope so after what I'm about to do' Ryou lifted his head pressing his lips to Bakura. Bakura wasn't fazed the least and pushed back running his tongue over Ryou's lips begging for entrance. Ryou complied opening his mouth and Bakura slid his tongue in. Their tongues battled playfully and Ryou was definitely not submissive and put up a fight before he moaned letting Bakura win. When they needed air the two pulled back and Ryou looked at Bakura unsure.

"Would you like to go out with me Friday night" Bakura asked smiling. 'I can't believe I'm smiling what is this boy doing to me' he asked himself.

"I'd like that" Ryou said shocking himself at the confidence in his voice.

"C'mon we have to get to Seto's place" Bakura said and they left the house hand in hand. The first problem of they're relationship arose when they walked out the door.

"Ryou it's just a bike" Bakura said trying to get the albino onto his Harley.

"No way in hell are you getting me on that" Ryou aid eyeing it like it would suddenly jump up and attack him. Bakura smirked. Oh how he loved a challenge.

"Ryou come her" Ryou walked up to him unsure of what he would do. He didn't have time to register what was happening as lips were on his own. When he snapped out of his daze he was on Bakura's motorcycle and before he could get off Bakura jumped on an sped off. Ryou shrieked and grabbed on suddenly thinking of all the ways to kill his boyfriend 'or whatever he is'.

When they arrived at Seto's house (going right up to the MANSION sorry that gets to me...rich little bastard) Ryou was got off the motorcycle and was just about to yell his beautiful (I had to add that) little head off when a pair of lips were on him again. 'I could get used to this' he thought to himself.

"I just can't get enough of you" Bakura said when they pulled apart. Ryou blushed but nodded none the less. He suddenly heard laughing and turned to see Malik running towards him with Marik, Yami, Jou, and surprisingly Seto.

"Damn if that's what it takes to not have to listen to him scream when he goes on a motorcycle than I am taking you with me and him everywhere Bakura" Malik said still trying not to laugh. Ryou walked over and calmly hit him off the head.

"Ow..."

"Shut up...now what are you doing here" Ryou said looking at Marik suggestively.

"Well Marik hangs out here a lot after school and has invited me over and asked me to go out with him Friday night" Malik said in one breath.

"Oh Bakura asked me out too for Friday night" Ryou said thoughtfully oblivious to the crowd watching them.

"Finally, I thought it would take forever now all we have to do is work on Yugi" Malik said and the both of them suddenly panicked. How could they forget about their friend. Yugi was the one who got them all to be friends in the first place and now it was like they were throwing him aside for this crowd. That wasn't what scared them though, it was the fact that they knew how Yugi got when he felt too alone.

"Shit" Ryou cursed.

"Is something wrong" Yami asked. At this Ryou looked at Yami and was about to apply when an idea popped into his head.

"Yami how much do like Yugi" Ryou asked and Malik looked at him strangely wondering what his white-haired friend was up to.

"Alot...why" he asked curiously raising an eyebrow.

"Oh no reason" Malik caught on to what his friend had planned and sighed. Hopefully this would work. They couldn't afford for it not to.

"Well let's go study Jou" Ryou said skipping into the house and paused, "You don't happen to know where we're going do you"

"Unlike you I've been here and know where to go" Jou said following him into the house and the two walked off. That left Malik, Marik, Bakura, Yami, and Set standing there. Now you would think that Malik would be intimidated because they were the most popular and hottest guys in school, but honestly this is Malik where talking about.

"I'm hungry mind if I have something to eat" Malik asked and Marik laughed.

"Yeah let's go" he said.

"I'm going to go work in my room if you need me suffer because I'll be busy" Seto said walking into the house going a different direction.

"Oh we'll be sure not do" Bakura said in a fake sweet voice muttering asshole under his breath.

They got to the kitchen and Malik started raiding the cabinets filled with enough food to fill the entire town while the others sat down on the stools by the counter.

"So...how long have you all been friends" Yami asked striking up a conversation.

"Middle school" Malik replied not stopping in his raid of the food. (I'm doing this by American school system)

"Really" Marik said curiously trying to understand him better.

"Yeah we were outcasts then to" Malik said frowning.

"Why are you outcasts I mean there is nothing wrong with you" this question from Bakura.

"People may have excepted your gayness better because you're popular but we didn't get off that easy" Malik said snorting when Bakura asked the question.

"Well you see about that" Marik said trailing off and Malik turned and looked at him.

"Oh yeah that's right people don't know about you, Hmph, that won't last long if you plan on staying with us, we're very open about it even if it brings trouble"

"We'll let everyone know soon" Bakura promised but Malik didn't take it to heart. He'd heard that before.

"Trouble" Yami said quietly.

"Yeah you know getting beat up by Ushio and his friends and tons of other homophobics" Malik said casually.

"You won't have to worry about that any more" Marik said and Malik looked at him unsure for a moment before nodding. An hour later Jou came down with Ryou.

"I should get going" He said smiling brightly.

"Yeah me to" Malik said since it was already 7:30.

"We'll take you home" Marik and Bakura chorused and the two nodded.

"I'd like to give you a ride to school tomorrow" Marik said to Malik and without thinking Malik said yes.

"You two Ryou I'll bring my car this time so we can all go together" Marik said.

"Sure that would be great" Ryou answered and they all got ready to go home. They forgot about one person though...

Yugi stared looking at the blood pouring from his wrist. He lost control again after talking to Malik and Ryou about they're day. The two tried to apologize about not being able to go to school with him tomorrow but he shook his head saying he'd take the bus even though he knew he wouldn't. This was all his fault. He was just in the way of his friends.

"Stop!" he yelled out suddenly, "Get out of my head" he screamed at the thoughts that he feared the most. He felt alone again and couldn't control it. He had to let go of this emotion. Suddenly all of the color left his face as he picked up the razor beside him. He know long had control over what he was doing and didn't even wince as he dragged it over his skin. Lifeless tears flowed from his eyes.

"God help me" he whispered trying gain control but stopped. This is what it had come down to. He just hoped that when he remembered everything in the morning it wouldn't be too bad.

Me- I can't believe I wrote that it was so sad.
