Ch. 3
Atemu slowly lifted his head from the bed; he scratched his head sleepily and looked around. His clothes were in tatters everywhere, Bakura's clothes also with the mess. Atemu look to his side, and saw the sleeping older man next to him.
He watch him sleep, thinking to himself. How long has this been going on? Almost a week, right?
What was drawing them together? Since the first night Bakura threw him on bed, he kept on coming back, and the first thing he would say was..."You're like a drug..."
Atemu ran a hand through Bakura's hair. The sun wasn't out yet, it was still dark... but it would be soon time for Bakura to run out, and leave Atemu, with his lips calling his name... until later that day.
Bakura stir and sat up quickly, he look at Atemu, who had fallen out of bed, scared by the fact Bakura got up so fast.
Bakura sleepily look over the bed. "What the hell is wrong with you!" Bakura growled.
Atemu look up at Bakura. "You scared me! I didn't expect you to wake-up so fast!"
Bakura squint his eyes as he grab Atemu and put him back in bed. "I felt something crawling on me..." He said as he ran a hand through his hair.
"That was me; I was playing with your hair..." Atemu replied as he sat on the bed.
Bakura growl. "Don't do that... I hate it..."
Atemu frown. "You like it while we are-"
"That's something different."
Atemu sigh. Bakura look out and saw the sun starting to peek. "Shit, I have to go..."
"Why don't you stay here?" Atemu said suddenly.
"What!" Bakura roared as he glared at Atemu. "Wasn't it not YOU who was worried what others were going to say!"
Atemu look away from Bakura. "... I... I don't care anymore..."
Bakura looked at Atemu for a while longer; he rolled his eye, got up, and got dress. "We will NEVER talk about this ever again..."
Atemu look at Bakura hurt, he bows his head. "Yes, I understand..."
Bakura looked at Atemu one last time, he turn, to head out. "On...second thought...we will...tonight." With that said, he leaped off the balcony.
Atemu sat there, amazed that Bakura would say something so out of character. In the past, after Bakura would leave, Atemu would continue to sleep, but he couldn't right now. He got up and dresses in his fine clothing.
A servant walks in and gasps. "Your awake my pharaoh!"
Atemu look at the servant, he smile brightly at her. "Yes I am. I just want to start work off early today..."
The servant nod, "Shall I tell your Priests?"
Atemu nods. "Please do... The sooner we get our work done, the faster I can go to bed tonight..."
The servant gave Atemu a curious look, bow down and walk out of the room.
Atemu look outside of the window and smile. "Bakura, I believe this is going to be one of first actually talk about our future together... I hope the gods bless our union, and we will have no trouble being together."
Atemu sat on his throne, holding his head from the pounding headache he had at the moment. "Please... my friends... stop fighting..."
The other priests stop Aishizu step up. "But, My pharaoh, we all do think its time you find a lovely girl to be with!"
Seth crosses his arms. "Yes, it must be getting lonely for you on that throne."
Atemu sigh. "Shouldn't it be my choice if I want to get with a girl or not?" Especially since I am with a man behind your backs.
Aishizu step back. "Y-your right my Pharaoh, I'm sorry."
Seth look over to the where Mahado used to stand. "Sir, you know Mahado would have agreed to us..."
Atemu stood up from his throne. "Yes maybe so, but he wouldn't of had pushed it so hard on me, like you all are doing at the moment."
Seth bit back what ever else he was going to say.
Atemu smile at the others. "Please do not worry about my love life, all of you... this is the less of your worries..." He look out over to the windows. "It's getting dark... We will talk some more tomorrow okay..."
The priests all nod as they all step out of the throne room.
Atemu sigh. "Boy are they going to flip out tomorrow if all goes well today..."
