Once Marik, Mariku and Ryou had eaten their dinner that night Ryou sighed rubbing his tummy and complaining about being full, Marik teasing him as usual about being fat causing the two Hikaris to play fight and sprout playful banter at each other while Mariku cleared the table and made a fresh round of drinks. Settling down only when their drinks were placed before them, Ryou sighed as he explained that he would go and sit with Bakura on his own if they the Egyptian duo didn't mind. Mariku nodded in understanding as Marik made a comforting remark about waiting outside the room for him if he needed them, smiling brightly Ryou nodded as he downed his drink after it had cooled and waited for the Egyptian duo to finish getting ready. Once the three were ready, they left the Ishtar residence and took a slow walk down the road and headed towards the hospital.
Arriving at the hospital, Ryou sighed deeply as he walked up to the nurses' station on the sixth floor and cleared his throat softly
"Hello can I help you?" A young blonde nurse spoke softly as she gazed up at Ryou with emerald eyes
"Y-yes, I am here to see Mr Bakura"
"Oh, Let me see if he is in his room yet" the young nurse spoke as she stood up and walked over to the single patient room and peered into the room, turning after several moments she smiled, "It seems that he is, one moment... Mr Bakura you have a visitor"
"W-Who...i-is it?" Bakura answered as Ryou stepped closer and smiled lightly
"It's Angel" Ryou teased as he heard a soft clash of something hitting the floor and poked his head around the door to see Bakura staring at the door with his arms crossed and glaring at the door with a faint smile, "May I come in?"
"Y-Yeah...come in...R-Ryou"
"Good" Ryou said softly as he walked past the nurse and closed the door just as the young nurse was about to protest Mariku explained that they were twins and needed to talk about the reason Bakura was there to begin with, sighing and nodding the nurse turned around and walked back to her station as Marik and Mariku sat on the plastic chairs outside of Bakuras hospital room.
Sighing lightly Ryou walked slowly over to Bakuras bed and bit his lip lightly as he watched Bakuras eyes widen at his outfit
"D-does it suit me?"
"I-It does... I... L-love that...o-outfit on you"
"That is good" Ryou said weakly as he sat on the edge of Bakuras bed and laid against the Yamis chest as he sighed and closed his eyes, "B-Bakura-Sama I n-need to tell you s-something"
"W-What is...i-it R-Ryou?"
"W-well, you remember the dance thing at D-Devils Lust?" Ryou whispered lightly sitting up and gazing up into Bakuras eyes as he watch Bakura nodding, "W-well you k-know I was actually Angel, b-but do you remember w-what happened at the end of the night?"
"M-Mariku...and...M-Marik t-took...me h-home... I w-went...i-into y-your...r-room" Bakura said lowly as he breathed lightly trying to control the speed of his breathing as Ryou sighed and grabbed the pad and pen from the side and indicated for Bakura to write it down instead of talking as it would help his throat better, nodding Bakura took the pad of paper and the pen and started writing: 'You were sleeping so soundly, though I sort of know now that you weren't actually asleep. After that I passed out in my room after Mariku made me go to bed'
"W-what else do you remember Bakura-Sama?"
"...'I stirred what could of been hours later, I couldn't see anything and my wrists were bound by something. Someone was in my room, I thought it was you but their voice it wasn't like yours and well something happened. I felt every bit of pain I had caused you, someone made me feel that exact pain'..." Bakura sighed as he turned the page around to show Ryou as the smaller teen bit his bottom lip and flung his arms around Bakuras neck as he started crying lightly, "R-Ryou?"
"I'm s-so sorry B-Bakura-Sama" Ryou whispered as he released his hold on Bakura and stood up as he dusted himself off and turned to face Bakura biting his lip, "T-there was no one in t-the house... M-Mariku bound y-your wrists w-with the S-Sennen ring...H-He also b-blindfolded you...Mariku k-knew of what y-you did to me the day b-beforehand..." Ryou spoke weakly as he felt that familiar lump rise in his throat as he stared at Bakura, whose slanted russet brown eyes stared in fear at Ryou, "It...It was me...I w-was the one t-that...That d-done those t-things to you...I w-wanted r-revenge...I w-wanted you to feel as s-small as I did B-Bakura-Sama...I t-thought that j-just maybe, if y-you could feel my pain...Y-you'd u-understand w-why I wouldn't c-come back... I u-used your favourite knife to carve the name A-Angel into your s-shoulder, to slash you up..." Ryou said weakly as he noticed Bakuras eyes widen in more fear at the information he was being told, his fists clenching as Ryou backed up quickly to get out of the way of being harmed as he continued after swallowing the lump in his throat though the tars still cascaded down his cheeks, "I'm s-sorry B-Bakura-Sama... you d-deserved it... T-That day you a-attempted suicide... I was going to come h-home and t-tell you e-everything...B-but you t-tried k-killing yourself"
"Ryou..." Bakura whispered as he shifted his weight on his bed and placed his feet to the floor and stood up shakily as he took several steps towards the sobbing Hikari, "L-look at...m-me...p-please"
"I c-can't... I'm so sorry"
"R-Ryou...please"
"B-but..." Ryou whispered as he looked u to come face to face with Bakura as he tried stepping back to find he was already up against the bedroom door as he stared in fear at Bakura as he parted his lips to say something when Bakura raised his hands weakly and held Ryous face before rubbing his cheeks lightly and crushed his lips hard against Ryous. Causing the Albino teenager to gasp and stare wide eyed for several moments before closing his eyes slowly and wrapping his arms around Bakuras neck, pulling the older male into his body as he felt something he hadn't felt for months
'I'm sorry Ryou, that I made you feel that pain. I don't hate you if that is what you think'
'O-Oh 'Kura, I'm so sorry I just wanted you to feel my pain, to feel the way I did when you hurt me over and over'
'I know and I am sorry, I deserved your revenge but what I don't deserve are your tears'Bakura whispered easily through their once sealed mind-link before breaking their shared kiss for air as he gasped lightly gazing down into Ryous doe like eyes, "I w-wish...I had...s-seen your...f-feelings...s-sooner... m-my A-Angel"
"I'm still sorry Bakura"
"D-don't...b-be" Bakura whispered as he carefully and weakly pulled Ryou into his arms and held him as tightly as he could before losing his strength and falling to his knees and dragging Ryou with him as he groaned lightly looking down at Ryou who had become a small heap in his lap, sighing faintly Bakura lifted Ryous chin so he could gaze into his eyes before sealing the boys lips with his own so that Ryou couldn't speak another word.
After spending several hours alone, and after Ryou had finished crying and apologising with Bakura asking him to stop apologising, Mariku and Marik knocked on Bakuras door and entered the room slowly glancing between Ryou and Bakura. Ryou now curled up between Bakuras legs on the hospital gurney smiling weakly while being held seemingly tightly and protectively, Smiling and letting a low sigh of relief pass their lips Marik and Mariku sat at the edge of the bed and apologised themselves for keeping Bakura in the dark about what had really happened that night so many nights ago. Nodding in understanding Bakura explained that he understood and that he knew then that his Hikari, as innocent as he was meant to be was just as dark as he himself was. With a faint and weak chuckle Bakura kissed the top of Ryous forehead as he noticed that the smaller teen had fallen asleep in Bakuras arms, smiling Bakura indicated to Mariku as the taller Egyptian explained that Bakura needed his own rest and that he would take Ryou home. Nodding in agreement the three males agreed to have set days for Ryou to spend the day alone with Bakura, so the two could talk without being interrupted. Mariku sighed lightly but agreed as he assured Marik that things would now be sorted, nodding Marik to agreed as he apologised for being horrible to Bakura that night Ryou got his revenge. Bakura just shrugged it off as Clara his nurse knocked the door and entered with a small cup and some tablets, groaning Bakura quickly took his tablets and laid down to sleep though not before placing a small kiss on Ryous forehead before Mariku left with the Albino teen in his arms.
As the following days went by, Ryou spent two days a week up at the hospital alone with Bakura. They spoke about things Ryou had been up to and talked about the things between them that had still been kept hidden from everyone. When it finally happened, a Friday evening while Ryou had been visiting alone one of Bakuras doctors knocked on the door and announced himself before entering as he glanced between the two identical almost looking males as he spoke softly
"Well Touzukou Bakura, according to your chart you will be able to go home tomorrow"
"Really? It's a-about time" Bakura stated simple with a soft smile as he grasped Ryous hand in his own
"Ah this must be that Twin of yours Ryou Bakura"
"Y-Yes, it is a pleasure to meet you Doctor" Ryou said politely as he squeezed Bakuras hand lightly
"Likewise, we will have to keep you in overnight Touzukou one last night to make sure you are fully ready to leave, then we can discharge you by about 1pm tomorrow"
"Yeah sure thing doc, I just want to go home. I miss my bloody bed"
"Touzukou!" Ryou hissed lightly as he slapped Bakuras hand to earn himself a playful glare, "Be nice to the kind doctor or I will ask them to keep you here"
"Y-you wouldn't bloody dare!"
"Try me" Ryou hissed back as Bakura sighed and leaned back in his bed rolling his eyes, "So Touzukou can come home tomorrow afternoon?"
"Yes he can, I will leave you both be. Touzukou I will see you in the morning"
"Yeah okay doc" Bakura said simply as he gazed into Ryous eyes and waited till the door closed before letting a low growl escape slightly parted lips, "N-never call me that again"
"Call you what Touzukou?"
"T-that"
"What? Touzukou?" Ryou teased as he jumped of Bakuras bed and wriggled his bottom at Bakura teasingly as he giggled
"Just you wait, I'll slap or kick that ass of yours when I am out of here"
"I dare you to try" Ryou stated with a light giggle as Bakura threw a book him, dodging it Ryou pounced Bakuras bed and planted a light kiss upon Bakuras lips as he whispered softly, "You should get some rest 'Kura, plus I need food I'm hungry and Marik will be waiting outside for me"
"Oh do you have to leave? Can't you stay with me?"
"We have been over this 'Kura" Ryou said sadly as he wrapped his arms around the Yamis neck and nuzzled his face into the males neck as he breathed softly, "I'll be here tomorrow with Mariku to take you home"
"Okay then, well go enjoy your film okay? But promise to be the one to go home with me"
"I promise Bakura-Sama" Ryou said softly as he gazed up into Bakuras eyes before placing a soft kiss upon the Yamis lips before he got of the bed and said his good byes' and left the hospital.
Outside Marik was waiting with Mariku with several bags and bright smiles as they waited for Ryou to give them the news, nodding Marik grinned more brightly as the three walked off in the direction of the Bakura house hold. Once there Marik and Ryou went straight to the kitchen and started preparing a welcome home cake of three tiers while Mariku went about dusting and cleaning the house up before putting up the decorations. Marik and Ryou talking about all the people they had to call and invite around for the surprise welcome home party the albino teen was throwing, Mariku on the other hand having to go early in the morning to get his car that he had gotten the day before after passing his driving lessons so they would have their own vehicle to bring Bakura home in
"So you are decorating the cake in the morning?"
"Yes, that is when Mariku goes and gets his car and you start cooking off the party food"
"Frigging hell! All of it!?"
"Of course not! I will be helping as well you bloody wanker" Ryou stated crossing his arms over his chest as Marik chuckled
"Well the sooner we get this place ready the better, but when is the new bed getting here?"
"It is already here Marik, I was here yesterday when it was delivered. Ryou there just has to go make the bed" Mariku stated as he walked into the kitchen to grab a bottle of water and dispose of the duster
"Oh right"
"Yeah when the cake is in the oven you can help Mariku with the decorations while I make the bed and make sure everything upstairs is ready for Bakura coming home"
"Yeah okay, that sounds like a good plan" Marik said as he noticed the bright sparkling of Ryous eyes, something he hadn't seen for a long time and seeing this now made Marik realise that maybe love is meant to be hard in the beginning.
Once Ryou and Marik put the three tiers of the cake into the oven, Ryou quickly washed his hands, dried them and handed Marik the tea-towel as he made quick haste to run up the stairs and into what was now the main bedroom. In the centre of the red and black painted room was an Egyptian wooden double bed, smiling brightly Ryou grabbed for the bag by the bedroom door and pulled out brand new black silk sheets, silken red quilt covers and pillow cases and placed them on the matching bedside tables. Looking over the room and seeing all the work Mariku had done over the last week of blitzing up Bakuras room and making it more suited to two of them, Ryou opened up the casing of the black silk sheets and started making the bed while smiling both inwardly and outwardly. Once Ryou had the bed fully made with both his own and Bakuras pillows laid out Ryou noticed that the pillow cases each had in golden thread writing their names, smiling at them Ryou sighed softly as he laid down on the bed and realised that it was extremely comfortable to lay on, and before he knew it Ryou had fallen asleep leaving Mariku and Marik to check on the cakes and finish decorating the house.
As night fall came around Marik and Mariku went to check up on Ryou to see the albino teen passed out on the bed, curled up clutching the sheets in his hands sleeping soundly with a faint smile upon his lips. Chuckling lowly Marik walked over to the bed and covered Ryou up as he glanced at Mariku and indicated that they should sleep on the couch after they fully finish the decorations, when a thought hit Marik as he explained that he would leave the cake for Ryou to decorate but he would make some cupcakes and cook off the party food that night. Agreeing Mariku nodded as the two Egyptians left Ryou to sleep soundly and alone within his new bed.
