“Ok now it's dark…” I said as I started at a curtained window and then turned to look at Marik who had fallen asleep waiting for night to come. I have to admit he was so cute I almost didn't want to wake him.
I got up and walked to where he fell asleep. He mumbled as I gently shook him. Hmm if that won't do anything then I bet… I bend down as I lay my cheek against his and then lightly bit onto the tip of his nose.
“Nuuuu…” Marik said as he turned and pressed his face against my chest.
“Oi, Mariku, get up… it's dark and I said I would take you flying, but then there's finding Yami…” Malik's eyes snapped open.
“Oh yea!” a single bead of sweat ran down his forehead. “Naaa… how could I forget…?”
“It's alright, really… I reminded you didn't I, Mariku?” I said slipping my tongue into Marik's mouth ever so easily. Marik seemed to just welcome it in as he opened his mouth and continued to kiss using his tongue as well.
“Tomodachi!” I heard a voice call that startled me and also Marik.
“Gah!” I looked behind me to find Malik crouched on the windowsill with Ryou hanging onto his back. “Malik! You have to SO not do that…”
“B-But tomodachi…” Malik started at the look on Marik's face before he said anything else. “…you were doing something weren't you?”
I just sighed. “Yes! Now you were saying?”
Ryou jumped down from Malik. “Marik!” he said happily.
“Well, Ryou went to school like he normally did and… he found this on the floor of his school, there's a boy in it, the picture that looks like Ryou… I wonder…” Malik said taking out the locket and gave it to me. I stared at it.
“A pic in this… with a boy that looks like Ryou…?”
Malik nodded. “And something else that surprised me… the two others in the picture in it…”
I opened up the locket and my eyes grew wide as he mentioned the two others. “Me and him!?” I shouted enraged. “Oh wait, this was from a long time ago, but… I don't remember the little boy in it… or my memory is very fuzzy,”
Ryou walked up to me nervously. “What if I have any relation to you? No one told me much about my family anyway,” Ryou said playing with his hair I walked closer and placed my hand on his head.
“If so you'd be a better relative than Dorobou Bakura ever really was…”
“Oi Bakura!” a voice called once again. I looked and found that it was Yami.
“O-Ouji-sama!” I said uneasily as Yami jumped down from the windowsill.
“Is there something you're not telling me?”
“What did HE fucking tell you…”
“You have a relationship… with whom? Not that there's anything bad about it the way that sick vampire said it to him it seemed so amusing… which I hate him for finding just anything amusing,”
Ryou gasped as he hid behind Malik. Malik felt so uneasy with Yami since he barely did anything with Yami.
“Y-yes… I have a relationship… i-it is with M-Marik…” I said pointing to Marik behind me, I couldn't lie to him, he'd find out sooner or later anyway.
“Hm so it is, then again just to seem fair to you, but not to Dorobou Bakura, he has a relationship with my father and no one else but me knows other than them. Telling you would add on to it.”
I just stared at Yami, my brother… has a thing for the king of the vampires, and I think he's trying to do something… I just dunno what.
“So you're t-the prince of the vampires, I barely did anything with you…” Malik said. “Um…” Malik noticed that Ryou was holding onto his shirt and scared.
Yami had now noticed Ryou a bit after seeing Marik. “So that's the boy that was with Yuugi today…” Yami looked up at Malik. “Yes, I am and I wish I could have done more…”
“Yuugi?” I blurted out.
“Oh yea, that…”
“And you were complaining about how I have a relationship like it was a bad thing, who is this Yuugi?”
“He's my new friend…” Ryou peeped, still holding onto Malik's shirt. Yami came close to Ryou.
“Really?”
“Lay off of the boy, Yami…”
“I don't plan on doing anything to him… especially since I see your friend Malik has a thing for him.”
I sighed. “Nevermind that, I wanted to see you about something well now it's two things…”
“Hm? Usually you don't get me for just anything, Bakura… then again I usually am with you or I find you,” Yami said with a slight smile on his face.
Ryou let go of Malik's shirt. “Y-you're not a bad vampire… ne?”
“I am good, don't worry…”
“Y-You're name i-is Yami… and I slipped again…” Ryou said smacking himself and Malik held his hand.
“Did what… I don't get it…” I said confused.
“I-I have this little mind-reading ability… I just…” Ryou bit on his lip.
“You don't have to be so afraid, Ryou…” Malik said stoking Ryou's hair.
“…About what you needed Bakura what is it?”
“Oh… yea it involves Marik and Ryou, Ryou is that boy that Malik likes, but then there's…” I said throwing the locket to Yami and he caught it. “The picture,”
“I-I never saw this in my lifetime, it's yours?” Yami opened it up and saw the picture. “Three white-haired boys, two of them being you and Dorobou Bakura the third… I dunno and that is the second thing you wanted to know… and with Marik too using what only I can do with DNA ne?”
“You don't even have mind reading abilities and you got it… I should have expected much, but no one I know of in my family had anything like Ryou does… unless it was something neither me nor Dorobou Bakura was ever told… that makes me wonder more,”
“I wonder about Marik being related to me, I'd have someone who actually cares for me if he was… either way I'd have more than just Bakura,”
I wonder if I should really tell Yami about Ryou liking another guy, and it seems like this guy is Yuugi since… since Ryou said he was a friend. Malik thought.
“I am fine with doing DNA things to find out… it still puzzles me how there is a smaller boy in this that seems to look a lot like Ryou there,”
Ryou turned to Malik playing around with his fingers nervously. “I-if I were related to y-your friend… would that change anything between us…M-Malik?”
Malik shook his head. “Why would it? Plus if Marik is related to me… we'd be equal,”
“Yea, now I just need something… in this case I don't really think it should be blood unless you two don't try to kill me for even touching Marik or Ryou…”
“You're a friend, Yami, it's not like you'd want to do it on purpose for no reason and plus if it means doing that… I don't mind it Malik doesn't either, ne tomodachi?”
“Yami is good so why worry, only time I would worry is for that other vampire…”
I twitched. “Don't remind me…”
“Yea, but I just wanted to make sure anyway… yea…”
“Blood involved… and he's a vampire…” Marik shrugged and then got up. “But if it's for a cause I guess it'll do… or whatever… you don't necessarily need to cut me Yami,” Malik said unbandaging one hand.
“M-Marik!” Malik cried uneasily.
“It's ok, Malik…”
Now I am wondering about Marik even more. I thought as Marik held out his wounded hand.
“W-wounded hand?”
Malik put both hands to the sides of his hands partially afraid of Yami's reaction. I just sighed when he did.
“I didn't mean to!” Malik cried out.
“Whoa… Malik just stop, Yami is not the one to punish without a really good reason and he wouldn't think of abusing anyone…” I said taking down one of Malik's wrists.
“He's right… that would seem to be more of a thing Dorobou Bakura would do, which I dislike,”
“I-if you said that… Dorobou Bakura is the one in the picture and h-he is supposed to be related to Bakura then if I am indeed related to Bakura then… oh god!”
I held Ryou close to me; Malik was close to doing something to me but realized why I had held him in the first place. “Ryou… if you are related to me I will protect you from him, I swear to you that… whether you're another brother or a cousin, I will do so,”
Ryou blushed slightly as he laid his head to my chest. “Y-you would?”
I nodded and smiled. “Yes, Ryou, I would. I already do with Malik.”
“Ne, and if Marik is related to me I would do the same… and be greatful that I even have a relative that cares for me,”
“Anyway, to this cut…” Marik said putting his wounded hand a little bit in his mouth and bit on it as hard as he could and then blood leaked out.
“M-Marik… why would you just… just open up the wound like that??” Malik questioned uneasily as blood dripped from Marik's wound.
“It's ok, Malik,” Marik said looking at Malik.
“T-that would mean I have to let you get some blood wouldn't it?” Ryou said nervously. Malik looked at Ryou.
“I think it should be something else…” Malik said sighing.
“At least there are more options other than blood, there is always hair or even saliva, I can go with hair… just not ripping it and hurting the person,”
“Ne, really?” Ryou said playing around with some of his hair. Malik held some of Ryou's hair in his hand.
“So hair works as well… does it matter how much?”
“a strand of hair is enough usually, Malik,” Yami had to laugh as he said this since to him it seemed like Malik was still a bit childish, he just didn't wanna say it to him so bluntly whenever he decided to do so.
“You should know why he even is the least bit childish, Yami,” I said, I could tell in the look on Yami's face and the little laugh he gave when answering Malik's question. “Anyway wouldn't you need DNA things from me and Malik too, I mean it's not like you're going to know if they ARE related if you don't have our DNA now are you?”
“Yes, Bakura, I know Malik's reasons for being childish… you were the one that told me. Yes, that is true Bakura, but would Malik or you really do the blood thing let alone Malik since I believe that in his abuse and even torture he probably had hair pulled… and I am not all that comfortable if it bothers him,”
“I-it's ok really, I don't really mind any way if it is some way to see if Marik is related to me or not…” Malik said pulling a little of his hair off. “The only one I really don't trust is Dorobou Bakura,”
“Go figure, tomodachi,” I said rolling my eyes. I bit my finger and pointed it to Yami. “Here,”
“Y-yea, that and ok…” Yami said talking what Malik and Bakura gave and walked to Marik. “How did you…”
“Best left unknown… and yet it was an accident,”
“O-okay Marik… uh Ryou…?” Yami said looking at Ryou who was playing around with his hair. “Something from you,”
Ryou blinked as he saw Yami look at him. “Oh yea, oops s-sorry,” Ryou said taking a bit of his hair and giving it to Yami.
“No need to apologize, Ryou…” Yami said taking the little but of hair Ryou provided.
Ryou blushed slightly. “O-okay Y-Yami…”
I couldn't help but stare at Ryou and this time Malik didn't seem to react when I did. Ryou seemed so cute to me… too cute. I'd always protect him and also Malik and Marik.
