"What else has he dreamt about?"
"Well, he has had a couple of nightmare but other than that he dream about food."
"Really?" I nodded
"Yes, so you want food brought here or do you want to eat in the dining hall?"
"I think I`d rather stay up here to eat if you don`t mind?" I shook my head
"Not at all, I`ll need to get a servant to fetch it for us."
"Here I`ll take Yugi from you." He stood up and gently picked Yugi up from my lap and held him in his arms like a baby causing Yugi to snuggle further into him
"`Kefia…" I chuckled and stood up
"I`ll be back in a moment." He nodded and walked to the door.

After Atem had left to go find Akefia, everyone else walked to the dining hall where we met Marik and Malik
"You found him?" Marik asked and I nodded
"He`s with Atem right now."
"Doing what?"
"Looking for Akefia." Bakura answered
"Oh, well let`s eat." I nodded and walked inside the dining hall with Jono at my side before sitting down at the table
"So what was wrong with Akefia? He didn`t look too happy then he just left." Jono said
"I don`t know Jono, but I`m pretty sure Atem and Yugi can find out." He nodded and started to eat, out of the corner of my eye I could see Ryou looking slightly guilty and I frowned before starting to eat myself
"Ryou, why aren`t you eating?" Bakura asked
"S-sorry, I`m j-just not hungry." He answered
"What`s wrong?" Jono asked
"I-I`m sorry." With that he got up and ran from the room
"What was that about?" Marik asked
"I don`t know, maybe I should talk to him." Bakura said and started to get up from his seat
"I`ll talk to him for you." I stood up and left the room just in time to see Ryou run around the corner towards the garden, I quickly followed him and found him in the garden crying at the base of the tree. I slowly approached him before kneeling down in front of him
"Ryou?" His head snapped up at me before looking away
"Why d-did you follow me?"
"Because, you need someone to comfort you and I doubt it would help if it was Bakura due to the fact he looks like Akefia."
"What a-am I going to d-do?"
"Why don`t you tell me what`s wrong."
"I-I`ve been avoiding Akefia."
"Why?"
"I`m falling for Bakura." He covered his face with his hands
"Ah, I see."
"What do I do? I-I still love Akefia, but I feel the same for Bakura."
"I`m guessing you haven`t talked to Akefia about this have you?" he shook his head
"No, h-how can I? I feel like I`m betraying him."
"You haven`t done anything with Bakura have you?"
"N-no."
"Then you haven`t betrayed Akefia, but you need to talk to him, you can`t let this consume you Ryou, it isn`t good for you." He sighed
"When do I talk to him?"
"Tomorrow, he`s back on duty so when you have some free time talk to him it will help Ryou."
"A-alright." I smiled softly
"Come on, let`s go back to the dining hall and get something to eat." He nodded and I helped him to his feet. We walked back to the dining hall and re-took our seats
"Everything okay Ryou?" Bakura asked
"Yeah, I`m good now." He answered

After Akefia, Yugi and I had, had breakfast we decided to go to the oasis for a while. So we were currently walking towards the stables, well Akefia and I were walking whereas Yugi was sat on Akefia`s shoulders
"Papa."
"Yes Yugi?"
"We take ball?"
"You want to take your ball?"
"Yes pwease." Akefia and I chuckled
"Alright Yugi we`ll go get your ball, we have to go back to my chambers." Akefia shrugged causing Yugi to giggle as he was moved up and down
"Makes no difference to me, I know how much Yugi likes to play ball." I chuckled
"Alright then let`s head to my chambers." He nodded and we turned back and headed towards my chambers
