The plane ride went smoothly except for the part of boarding the plane. The only person not to have the medal detector go off on them was Yugi. It went off for everyone for having one or more ear rings in their ears. Bakura had it go off for his knife, which was confiscated. It went off on Marik for his handcuffs and Malik for wearing the necklace he was wearing that was given to him by Marik. Yami had it go off for wearing the ring Yugi gave him and Mai and Tea had it go off for their tongue rings. After all that they all finally got through…except Ryou. It beeped for him and he was stopped.

"It's a filling in my tooth." He told the security guard.

"Yeah well we still have to check." The guard started to frisk him and Bakura lunged for him but Marik, Yami, Joey, and Tristan grabbed him. "Hmm, all I found was his wallet." The guard brought over a hand-held metal detector and scanned his body. It beeped when it went over his left check.

"I told you it was a filling." The guard shrugged.

"Standard procedure."

"Their bags were checked; they're clean." Another guard said.

"Ok." Ryou started to go through again when the guard smacked his ass. Everyone stared, surprised. Ryou stood frozen and Bakura finally broke free and decked the guard sending him to the ground.

"Now. Keep your filthy hands off my boyfriend!" Bakura grabbed Ryou's hand, their bags and headed to board the plane.

"Ok, let's go." Everyone followed the pale couple onto the plane.

"Thank you for boarding. You will be in couch. Thank you for boarding you will be in coach. Thank you for boarding Mr. Bakura and Mr. Ryou you will be in first class." The attendant looked at their tickets and led them to their seats.

"But I thought my ticket was for coach 'Kura." Ryou said as they took their seats.

"Well, they had asked Minoko to get the tickets and when I saw what she did and where you were put I went and got you a different ticket." Ryou hugged Bakura.

/Thank you 'Kura, I owe you more than I'll ever be able to pay back./

That's where you're wrong. You can pay me back with how much you do. Anyway, I still have my knife.

/What! How/

I transformed it with shadow magic to look like a comb. Ryou chuckled.

"That's Bakura for you. Thanks for earlier. That guard was-"

"His hands were all over you. I won't allow any guy or girl for that matter to put their hands on you like that. Only my hands can do that." Bakura gave Ryou a sideways glance and sent a mental pic to him. "Right?" Ryou blushed.

"Right." They went on with their silent rping as well as Marik and Malik. Tristan and Tea were arguing as usual. Joey and Mai were listening to music. Yugi and Yami were just sitting in a comfortable silence until Yami realized something.

"Wait a minute…the metal detector didn't go off for you. You didn't have your earrings in nor were you wearing the ring I gave you and didn't have in the-"

(Yami don't! I got pierced down therefore you. I know you like the feeling but I don't want the others to know so I took them off and put them in my bag. I'll put them back on when we got off ok?)

"Ok." Yami grabbed his hand. ((I love you. Thanks for getting it pierced.))

(Only for you.) Minoko sat down next to a really good-looking guy. Maybe she could make Bakura jealous.

"Hi!" The guy looked at her.

"Hi."

"You look bored."

"Actually I'm kind of pissed."

"Why?"

"The guy I was dating broke it off all of a sudden and left."

"Oh? What was his name?"

"Ryou." Minoko caught her breath.

"How long have you known him?"

"Two years, but we've been dating for the last six months. I think I'm just going to give up on guys and date girls. Hey you're kind of hot, want to go out?"

"Sure! My friends and I are going to a vacation house in Hawaii."

"May I join?"

"You most certainly can." She linked arms with him, thinking of getting revenge on Bakura plus she got a really hot guy that dates girls and doesn't like guys out of the deal. The rest of the ride went smoothly. When they landed Minoko introduced her new boyfriend to everyone.

"Guys this is-"

"Julien." Ryou finished for her. Julien's eyes went wide.

"Ryou…"

"Do you know him, love?" Bakura asked.

"Yes, love I do."

"Was he a…a…." Bakura trailed off.

"He was but you're my one and only, Bakura."

"Alright. Let's get our cars and go." Bakura smacked Ryou's ass and headed to the rental center. Ryou smiled and ran after him jumping on his back.

"So he left me for him?"

"Yeah and completely tore my plan to pieces. But you have me now and I have you so we don't need them." Julien agreed.

"Yeah. Come on let's go." They rented three cars. Yami was driving one with Yugi, Tristan, Joey, and Duke. Marik, god help us all, was driving another with Malik, Minoko, and Julien. And Bakura was in the last car with Ryou, Mai, Tea, and Serenity. (An: I just realized I put all three Egyptian spirits behind the wheel. Well, at least two of them know how to drive and Marik has Malik side-seat driving.) About five minutes later, however, Yami pulled over.

"What's going on?" Bakura and Marik pulled over. Everyone got out. Yugi came over to Ryou.

"Yami says for you to go to Marik's car and for Malik to go to Yami's so we can keep in touch through mind links."

"Ok." Ryou gave Bakura a quick kiss and a picture of what was to come later that night.

"I can't wait."

"Neither can I."

"Then why not now?"

"Let's get to the house first." Bakura pouted,

"But-" Ryou kissed him again.

"No buts." Ryou started toward Malik. Bakura grabbed his ass.

"Except yours." Ryou just smiled.

"Yours is better." He ran to Malik and told him then they all got back in the cars and started again. It took a few minutes but Bakura realized what happened.

Ryou!Bakura shouted into his mind.

/What/

You're in the car with your ex!

/Don't worry I'm kind of depressed about it and not on too good terms with his new girlfriend either. I want to be in your arms right now with you in me./ Bakura chuckled.

That makes two of us.The rest of the ride went quietly. When they had all gotten out Ryou ran and jumped into Bakura's arms wrapping his thin legs around him and kissing him passionately.

"Well, you missed me that much even though you were only in the next car huh?" Bakura smirked.

"I did, now I demand you take me inside and fuck me." Ryou commanded.

"Demanding aren't we? I'll just have to oblige to your commands then."

"Not yet you two. Luggage first and Minoko will switch beds with Ryou. Since Julian would have been sharing a room with him and that would have turned out terribly bad. Ok?" Yami asked.

"Fine." All four answered. Ryou got off Bakura and grabbed his luggage. Everyone went to get settled in. An hour later Ryou came out of his and 'Kura's room looking exhausted and well used but very happy.

"Hey, where's your new lover?" Julian asked as Ryou sat down.

"One he was my lover before I even knew you and two he's sleeping."

"No he's not." Bakura came in looking just as Ryou had.

"I thought you were asleep." Bakura pulled Ryou into his lap.

"I was but your moving woke me up."

"Sorry."

"No don't be. I was ready for more but you left the room."

"You know there is more to a relationship that sex, right?" Julian asked Bakura.

"Yes but I want to make up for the two years he was running around with you."

"What you saying that I wasn't good enough for him but you are?" Julian stood up.

"Hey, play nice, both of you." Ryou looked from one to another. "Now, I'm going out back to see what the others are up to ok?" Ryou got up but Bakura pulled him back and put his lips against Ryou's.

"Hurry back." Ryou smiled.

"You can't get enough of me can you?"

"Not in a million life times." Ryou gave Bakura another kiss and went outside leaving Bakura and Julian alone. "I was saying you weren't good enough for him but I never said I was worthy of his love. No one is."

"I wonder what he sees in you. I mean, I've heard all about you."

"He sees a repented soul, a good heart. He sees someone in love with him, which is a lot more than what he saw in you." Bakura replied coldly.

"What was that you murdering tomb-robber?"

"You heard me and just because you say one thing about me doesn't mean you know me."

"Oh but I do. Your family was killed in front of you. Your village burned to eth ground and the people's flesh from your village was made into the millennium ring, which held your sinful soul for 5000 years. But I know more than that. See you were the cause of that unnecessary bloodshed. You and your tomb-robbing ways condemned them. The pharaoh found out and had his high priest deal with you and that's what he did. He brought your family before you; your mother, father, little sisters, and your brother, his wife, and son. Then he had them all killed right in front of you. But that wasn't all, oh no, he took you back to your village and told the towns people what you did and that they would pay the price. He burned the city to the ground and poured salt over the land then had the flesh torn off the villagers' bodies while they were still alive and made the millennium ring where he trapped you soul. It was because of you they met such an unfortunate end. Pharaoh's high priest took everyone that ment something to you away, painfully, then locked you up for what you did and you have the nerve to say Ryou sees a repented soul and a good heart in you. Not in a billion years." Bakura had been holding in all his anger because of Ryou but that was the last straw.

"You son of bitch!" Bakura lunged at Julian taking him and sending him to the ground. Everyone heard and came in to see what happened. "Don't you ever, ever, ever talk about my life as if you knew me. You have no FUCKING idea why I did what I did. I became a tomb-robber so I could feed the children in my village, they were starving and nobody was doing anything about it! I was trying to save them but instead I condemned them to death! Don't you think I was sorry for what I did, huh? I regret my past every single fucking day of my life! But I can't take back what I did. I can make my future brighter though and the only thing that kept me sane for the past two years was the thought that Ryou would come back. He did and I was happy but then you came along thinking you were going to take him from me, you're wrong! Ryou's mine! Gods damn it he's mine!" Yami and Marik pulled Bakura off Julian.

"What happened?" Ryou wanted to know.

"He went psycho and jumped me!" Julian exclaimed.

"Bakura! I said to play nice! This isn't playing nice!" Bakura stared.

"Ryou-"

"No! I can't even look at you right now." He left the house. Bakura stood there dumbstruck. Ryou blamed him for this….didn't even give him a chance to defend himself….was Julian right? Was he just kidding himself about how Ryou felt? Julian saw his self-doubt.

"You know I'm right. Don't kid yourself Bakura he doesn't really want you. Deep down you know it's true." Bakura tried to hit him again but Yami and Marik tightened their grip on him.

"Julian stop! Or we'll let him go. Bakura don't believe anything he says ok? I went through this same thing with Malik, one of his exs tried to convince me that Malik didn't really love me but I know that's not true! Bakura, Ryou loves you; that's why he came back. This is just his jealous ex that's saying those things. Don't listen to him." Bakura thought for a minute then jerked away from the two Egyptians and went to his room slamming the door behind him. Yami turned and faced Julian.

"What's your problem?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"They love each other and if it hadn't been for Seto Kaiba you would have never met Ryou. Leave them alone. They belong together. Now, I better go check on our dinner. Don't go near their room, either!" Yami walked back outside with Yugi in tow.

"I'll go find Ryou and tell him what happened," Julian said in disgust as he went out in search of his ex.

"I don't think we can trust him." Tea thought aloud and everyone agreed.

Ryou found himself by a hot spring and thought to himself all the things that he could do to Bakura in there…if they weren't always fighting! Ryou sighed.

"I don't understand. It seems like all we ever do is fight, but…I love you so much, 'Kura. I'm yours; I don't see why you have to argue with Julian. I wish you would just stop. Maybe then it wouldn't be so tense all the time. I know I'll just leave him alone for a week and then come back and see if things are any better." Ryou made a mental picture of where the spring was so he could bring Bakura back to it and came back to the house. He looked to make sure no one was around, then took one of the bikes and headed toward town. Julian looked onward as he saw Ryou about to leave.

"Now, I'll just leave 'Kura alone and see how he is in a week." Julian went back inside.

"Did you find him?" Yugi asked. Bakura came out of the kitchen with some food and drink.

"Yeah but he was leaving said something about leaving Bakura and a week." Bakura did what Julian wanted him to do. He dropped what he was holding, made his way to his room, and closed the door behind him.

"That doesn't sound like Ryou but…" Yugi trailed off. Joey looked annoyed and Mai just finally got fed up and yelled.

"There is way too much drama in this house!" Everyone nodded in agreement.


There is chapter 7. Ryou is a little dense but things will get better. The lake does have a bigger part later in the story (chapter 10).

next chapter: Ryou comes back after a week away. How did Bakura take his leaving? Will this perminatly damage their relationship or make it stronger?

To all reviewers:

Sami Ryou's Hikari: yeah I'm not sure what I'm going to do with Minoko…but most people hate her.

Otaku22: I'm glad you liked the rping and teacher scene. I will try to add in more laughs along the way.

Mistress of Yugioh: thanks I tried my best to make it run smoothly. I haven't made the premonition come to pass but with the way I want to story to end it's going to have to.

Rose Child of Light: I don't know if I'll kill her yet but everyone is certainly encouraging it. huggles.
