Savior

"You don't get it, do you? I don't need saving!"

"You say that, but I don't think it's true!" Even as he said this, Ryou could feel his heart breaking.

"Than you're just as naïve as you look! I don't need anything!" Bakura took a step forward. "And I certainly don't need you."

Ryou felt his eyes grow wet but refused to let them fall. Bakura watched as Ryou walked away before he fell to the ground. He'd done it. He'd driven away his love. And it hurt. But Bakura had to do this. To protect him, Bakura couldn't be with him.
