Chapter 4 – Morning after/More Useless Information

BEEEP… BEEEP… BEEEP… BEEEP!

The alarm clock signaled 6:00. Ryuo instinctively reached over and hit the snooze button. As he slowly became aware of his surroundings he noticed the position he and Bakura had formed to in the night.

Ryuo had turned to face Bakura unconsciously while asleep. Both of his yami's arms and one leg were wrapped around him and he could feel Bakura's heart beat in his own chest.

He was extremely nervous to wake Bakura up in this position, and debated for a while whether he should just not risk his yami's furry and be late to school.

"Kura…"

Bakura stirred in his sleep slightly.

"Bakura."

Bakura came too and looked down at his light whom was breathing hard into his neck.

"What?"

"I… I have to go to school now."

Bakura grumbled and rolled away from Ryuo. Excited at Bakura's calm reaction, Ryuo quickly got out of bed and threw his close on. Right as Ryuo was leaving his room to head for school, Bakura sat up slightly and called to him.

"When will you be home today?"

Ryuo shuddered a little, unsure if this was going to be a good or bad situation.

"Ummm… when did you want me home?" he asked submissively.

"I don't care, just wondering," Bakura blinked.

"I'll come home right after if you like."

Bakura nodded slightly and with that Ryuo had left to start yet another fabulous day at school.

At school

Ryuo entered his first period and seated himself along the far row near the windows. He enjoyed sitting where the sun was warm and shinning. He pulled out his economics notebook and began reviewing his notes when Yugi and Joey entered the room. Joey headed towards Tristan across another row and Yugi took his seat aside Ryuo.

"Hey Ryuo! How was class discussion in here yesterday"

"Uneventful I'd have to admit," Ryuo laughed. "Where were you yesterday by the way."

"I had a cold."

"I see."

"So how have you been… I mean, since Bakura has his own form now, if you don't mind me asking?"

Ryuo paused for a moment before looking back at Yugi

"It's been fine, some days are better then others but for the most part I feel things have really improved," he answered more in hoping than in knowing it was the truth.

Mrs. Hitori entered the room and ushered the class to be seated. Yugi turned to face forward and Ryuo continued to let his mind wonder about his current situation with Bakura for the rest of the period.

After School

Ryuo had gone with Yugi, Joey, Tristan, and Tea to eat at a local diner and was now heading back to his apartment. He was curious to see the mood Bakura would be in when he arrived. And before he new it, he was walking through the doorway. At first glance, Bakura was no where to be seen. Ryuo could sense Bakura somewhere in the house and assumed he was napping and decided to do the same.

He walked casually into his room and set his books onto his desk, turning around to see Bakura was still blissfully asleep in Ryuo's bed.


Thought I'd leave this chapter at a slight cliff hanger. What will Ryuo do?... I'm sure it isn't too hard to form a reasonable idea. Anyways, I apologize for the rather boring chapter. There needed to be a better grasp on character and setting in my opinion so I added in this short information chapter so no one can say the entire story took place in Ryuo's apartment with nothing but sex and abuse in the plot. But if you feel you were totally discussed with this inexcusably boring chapter, let me know. I promise this was the last of them. I'm also planning on wrapping up this story within the next couple of chapters. I can't multi task unfortunately and I am already bursting with ideas for a new series. If you are Bakura X Ryuo fans and like a more relatable setting, you should enjoy it. Comments and concerns please, it is much appreciated.
