"Onegai Marik! G-gomen…I didn't ever want to hurt you, I'm…" tears began to fall from Ryou's delicate features unable to hold them back.

"I have barely touched you, and you're already crying." Marik stated still angry

"I'm not crying because of that…I'm crying because I'm disgusted with myself! I care about you so much but the simple fact is that I don't deserve you! I don't deserve either of you, I should have never allowed myself the privilege of love…I don't know what it is!" Ryou said sobbing turning his face away from Marik.

Marik sat shocked at what Ryou had said and let go of his wrists looking upon him sadly as he clenched his fists hanging his head.

"I…I'm sorry Ryou I just…" Ryou cut him off placing his fingertips on Marik's lips, which stopped him although there was no real force in it.

"Don't apologize Marik…this whole thing is my fault." Ryou said sliding out from underneath Marik "I deserve basically anything you do to me…you probably think I'm a whore anyway." Ryou said burying his face in his hands

Marik was appalled "Ryou! I never ever thought that about you! How can you even say that!" Marik said wrapping him in his arms hugging him strongly.

Ryou buried his face in Marik's shoulder.

"How can I not!" He sobbed "Look at what I have been doing to both you and Seto for the past month! I can't be in love with both of you, life is not that fair…" Ryou said returning the hug wanting Marik to hold him lovingly as he usually did. Marik returned the hug he knew how much Ryou liked to be held as he relaxed into the embrace.

"I…I should go." Ryou said pulling away reluctantly "I'm not going to choose either of you Marik…I cant I love both of you too much, but I am leaving both of you." Ryou said standing sniffling

"What? Why?" Marik asked standing as well

"Because I can't choose either of you and I cant keep on diving my attention between you two…also this isn't fair to you or Seto. I haven't been fair to you or Seto and you deserve someone that can actually return your feelings whole heartedly…I, I cant do that…I don't deserve the devotion you and Seto give me, I never did and I cant keep on doing this!" Ryou screamed as he left Marik's apartment without another word heading straight for Setos.

Marik gritted his teeth in anger. He knew he shouldn't be mad at Seto but he was and he was also mad at Ryou but realized how terribly hard this must be for him…was it possible for him to actually love two people? Marik thought back on the last time he had Ryou had made love.

FLASHBACK

"Please Marik! I can't take you teasing me so much!" Ryou pouted bringing Marik closer to his body and kissing him passionately causing a small moan to rumble in Marik's throat.

"Please…" Ryou whispered a bit huskily in Marik's ear

Marik smiled and kissed the young Hikari gently before thrusting himself inside Ryou fully, not preparing him in the least. Ryou gasped and his eyes misted at the sudden pain but it soon melted away into pure ecstasy. He was used to Marik's rough love making as well as Seto's by now. Marik took Ryou's wrist pinning them above his head as he pounded into the frail body beneath him. Ryou gasped and whimpered at the sensation, he loved it, every second of it was pure bliss and he hoped that Marik felt the same about him.

"You are perfect Ryou…" Marik said trailing off easily holding both his wrists with one hand while running the other one down Ryou's soft chest and stomach enjoying how smooth he was. "Don't ever make me leave you" Marik said kissing him passionately letting Ryou's hands go. So, he could more easily bring himself in and out of Ryou.

Ryou clamped his arms around Marik's back wrapping his legs around his waist and traced the various patterns on his back absentmindedly as he gasped and moaned every time Marik brought himself back inside him.

"Marik!" Ryou cried out as he met him climax and Marik soon followed suit falling down exhausted upon Ryou who still held on to him strongly. And then as if he was wide-awake he softly said to Marik

"Aishiteru…" and softly kissing Marik curled up against him closing his eyes

Marik was in pure shock at those words…a million thoughts flew through his mind at once…did Ryou mean what he said? Did he really love him? Marik stopped noticing the young boy had fallen asleep and Marik couldn't bear to wake him as he hugged him affectionately until they both fell asleep.

END FLASHBACK

Marik never called it sex he had always called it making love, he had told Ryou many, many times before that he loved him but Ryou would always blush and say thank you. Ryou had never had said it back and in a way that helped Seto realized that in the end Ryou would probably choose Seto…but after he said that Marik thought that possibly Ryou did love him as much as Marik wanted him to maybe he would choose him in the end. But now all this has happened and Ryou was going to leave them both, Marik gritted his teeth he couldn't let Ryou do that! He knew that Ryou probably did love them both and couldn't make a decision but Marik couldn't just let Ryou turn his back on the two people that cared more for him than anything else in the world…If Ryou loved Seto then he would be with Seto and Marik would not allow himself to get in the way of Ryou being happy, after all that's all he ever wanted for Ryou…for him to be happy even if it cost him his own happiness.

Seto could tell over the phone that Ryou was terribly upset so he agreed to meet him in the park that very moment. He was worried that something had happened to his love and he hurried to get to the meeting spot that Ryou had told him to come by.

Marik quickly ran after him but lost him but on his way, home he saw Ryou walk slowly into a nearby park. He bit his lip wondering if he should follow him but when he saw Seto walk into the park shortly after. Marik knew he had to get to Ryou he had to tell him it was okay to leave him and be with Seto, he had to tell him that he loved him but his own happiness didn't matter all he cared about was that Ryou was happy…he had to tell him before Seto got to him first.
