Chapter 26
Malik woke the next morning to find himself on top of Marik. Malik blushed hard and scurried off before Marik found out. As he climbed off he found that Marik had an arm around his waist but he was able to still lie next to him. Malik smiled and hesitantly wrapped an arm around Marik’s chest. But at that moment Marik’s eyes snapped open and he flipped onto Malik and held a knife to his throat. Malik’s eyes widened in fear and in pain from his beaten body. Marik’s own eyes widened when he saw it was Malik and he removed the knife from Malik’s throat and climbed off. Malik wiped his tears away and let out of breath of relief.
“Malik I’m so sorry.”
“It’s alright. I’m guessing you normally sleep alone.”
“No actually I sleep with Bakura. We were in a sort of relationship after Ryou disappeared. I was use to waking up on his chest instead of having something wrapped around mine.”
“I thought Ryou was with Bakura.”
“He is but after he disappeared, Bakura was upset and so was I. I love him as much as I love you and Bakura.”
“Oh ok.” Malik smiled and was worried on the inside.
“Come let’s get something to eat.”
“Yeah I’m very hungry.”
Marik smirked and stood up and helped Malik to his feet. Malik winced at the movement but shoved it away. Marik passed him his robe and he put it on before following Marik out of the hut. He looked around and saw thieves running around doing their jobs or getting food to eat. Marik led Malik back towards the cave where Bakura, Ryou, Atemu and Yugi were.
Arriving he pushed the curtain away to show three occupants sleeping the only one awake was Yugi who just watching Atemu in his sleep. When he saw movement he looked over and smiled to them, who smiled back. Marik noticing Bakura still asleep smirked. Marik snuck over and sat behind Bakura and leaned over. Yugi and Malik where covering their mouths as they watched him trying not to laugh. Yugi woke Atemu with his shaking in trying to stop himself from laughing who in turn remained quiet and watched.
Marik slowly lifted the blanket from behind Bakura in an attempt to slip in behind him.
“Nice try Marik.” Bakura said as he opened one eye and looked at him.
Marik pouted and Ryou who no one thought was awake started to giggle. Marik peered over Bakura and saw Ryou with a hand to his mouth trying to stifle his giggles. Marik smirked and slipped his hands in under the blanket and started to tickle Ryou. Ryou jumped and started to squirm around in Bakura’s grip as Marik tickled him.
After a few minutes Ryou cried out in pain and Marik instantly stopped and Bakura looked alarmed. Ryou took shallow breathes and clutched his side. Marik backed off feeling guilty.
“Ryou?”
“I’m fine Bakura.”
“No you’re not. What happened?”
“Too much fun. I was trying to take in air and took in too much.”
Ryou looked up at Bakura and kissed his cheek gently. He looked over and saw Marik looking guilty. Ryou smiled and waved him over. Marik walked over and sat down next to him and Bakura. Ryou smiled and hugged Marik tightly.
“I’m alright Marik. Thankyou.” Ryou said softly in his ear.
“Huh?” Marik asked as Ryou pulled back.
“For making me laugh and for trying to scare Bakura. It would have been funny.”
Marik smirked and Ryou sat between both older males before Marik pounced on top of Bakura and both rolled off the bed. Ryou shook his head while Malik came and sat down next to him. Yugi who had been watching squirmed out of Atemu’s grip and ran over and sat down next to them. Atemu shrugged and lay down on the ground and went back to sleep. He’d been awake most of the journey so he was extremely tired.
Yugi sat next to Malik who was holding up Ryou who was watching Marik and Bakura fighting on the ground.
“Ryou can we go for a walk? I need to speak with you.”
“Yeah sure. They won’t be done anytime soon.”
Malik nodded and stood up and helped Ryou to his feet before dragging Yugi up and all three walked around Marik and Bakura who didn’t even hear or see them leave.
“Is there somewhere private?”
“Yep.”
Ryou led them behind the cave and to a small pond that sat there with a small stream that fed it and then a stream that left.
“It’s Bakura’s personal garden area. Somewhere for him to come and think.”
“It’s nice.” Yugi said. “Malik what’s going on?”
“Ryou I don’t know if I should tell you this or if Bakura has or not...”
“What Malik?”
“Well Marik told me this morning because um... I woke on top of him and I well he kind of attacked me out of habit. I’m alright though but um... he and Bakura were in a sort of relationship when you were kidnapped.”
“What?” Ryou whispered wide eyed.
“He and Bakura were in a relationship. He said that he loves Bakura, you and I equally. I didn’t ask what they did but Marik told me that he would wake up on Bakura’s chest.”
Ryou sat down on a rock and looked out at the pond. Malik and Yugi sat down on either side of him and Ryou stared ahead.
“He was with Marik the whole time I was gone.”
“Yes.”
Ryou instantly cried before burying his face in Malik’s chest. Yugi moved closer and rubbed Ryou’s back and looked at Malik. He could tell that Malik had feelings for Ryou and had a lot for Marik. Yugi looked over where he saw Atemu and smiled at him sadly. Atemu frowned and walked over and sat down behind Ryou and the others.
“Yugi what’s wrong with Ryou?”
Yugi stood up and took him a little way away. “It’s about Bakura.”
“What is it?”
“He was in a sort of relationship with Marik when Ryou was kidnapped and he didn’t even tell Ryou. Malik found out from Marik.” Atemu nodded. “Do you think you could talk to them? You probably won’t get any more sleep with how they were acting in the cave.”
“You’re right there.”
Yugi smiled and Atemu leaned down and kissed him lightly before walking around the cave. Yugi sat back down next to Ryou and rubbed his back while he continued to cry in Malik’s chest.
~~Ω∞Ω~~
Atemu entered to find the two still on the floor fighting. Atemu shook his head and walked over and hit both over the head as they weren’t even hearing him speak. Both froze instantly and looked up at him.
“You two done?” Atemu asked annoyed.
“How DARE you!” Bakura hissed.
“You will DIE for that.” Marik hissed.
“Yes and then what will you do when Ryou comes in here and decides to leave?”
Bakura frowned and pushed Marik off him and stood up dusting himself off. Marik did the same.
“What are you talking about?”
“Ryou just found out from Malik that you and Marik were in a relationship when he was kidnapped and he’s crying on Malik’s shoulder outside.”
“H...How’d...he...” Bakura froze and turned to Marik. “YOU!”
“Bakura I’m sorry it just slipped this morning when I accidently attacked Malik. You know I have loved both you and Ryou for a while. I wasn’t game to get involved when he was here. You know this.”
“You told Malik why?” Bakura partially growled.
“I woke started at something on my chest and kind of held a knife to his throat. After I apologised he said he figured that I properly didn’t sleep with anyone and I said that he was wrong. I kind of said that I slept with you and we were in a sort of relationship. I kind of forgot to tell him not to say anything. I’m sorry Bakura I know we never meant for Ryou to find out. All I can say is I’m sorry.”
Bakura growled again and hit Marik hard in the jaw. The other didn’t react at all and just lay sprawled against the ground. Bakura stood and stormed to the entrance of the cave before stopping but not turning to Marik, completely forgetting Atemu.
“You better not be in here when I get back.” Bakura growled out angrily.
Atemu walked over to Marik and held out his hand to the other. Marik looked at him and took the offered hand. Atemu pulled him to his feet before Marik let go and took a step back.
“Why are you helping us?”
“Just because you are thieves doesn’t mean you aren’t human and don’t have feelings. You love all three of them even I can see that.”
Marik gave a great full smile before leaving. Atemu sighed and shook his head before heading out and around to where Yugi, Ryou and Malik were.
~~Ω∞Ω~~
Bakura took a deep breath before turning around the corner and walking over to Ryou who was sitting between Yugi and Malik.
“Ryou?” Bakura asked softly and saw Ryou flinch. “Can I talk to you?” Ryou nodded. “Alone?” This time he shook his head and Bakura sighed. “What about with Malik only?”
Ryou paused and turn to Yugi. “Yugi do you think...”
“Sure Ryou.”
Yugi gave him a small hug before getting up and walking towards where Atemu had just made himself known. Yugi smiled slightly to him and took his hand and led him away.
“Yugi how about we see if we can find Marik. He was kicked out of the cave by Bakura and hit.” Atemu said as he was led away.
“Yeah we should. Come on I can find him.”
“Really? How?”
Yugi gave a small smirk. “Me to know, you to find out.”
~~Ω∞Ω~~
Bakura turned to Ryou and Malik as Yugi disappeared with Atemu and he walked forward and knelt in front of Ryou. Bakura took hold of Ryou’s hands and he felt part of his heart break off when Ryou didn’t hold his back.
“Ryou I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. I didn’t know how. Marik and I have known each other for a long time and were in a relationship till he left for a while on a trip he did. We broke it off when he did then you came along. Please don’t doubt that I don’t love you because I do love you and still want you with me.
“When Marik came back he did confront me and I told him that I was with you and he was fine with it. Over time he got to know you and he started to develop the same feeling for you that he still has for me. Now the same has happened to him with Malik and I know that you love Malik, Ryou. I can see it in your eyes.”
Ryou flinched and Malik looked down at him surprised while Ryou tried to speak. “I...I-I...”
Ryou couldn’t say anything and just sat up and out of Malik’s arms.
“I’m not angry at that Ryou. I have sort of I guess you could say a soft side to Malik but don’t think I’ve gone soft Malik I can still scary if need be.”
“He can. He’d gone soft on me when he rescued me and then someone thought they could over throw him and died because of it.” Ryou said softly.
Malik smiled. “I guess I won’t lie to either of you. I have grown to like you both a lot and the same with Marik.” Bakura gave a small smile before turning to Ryou again.
“Ryou after you were kidnapped Marik helped me and looked after me. I was very upset and then we sort of got back together again. When I saw you again I didn’t know what to do and Marik already guessed that I was going back for you and I think he was happy with it. I just didn’t know how to tell you. I guess I was afraid you would run off with Yugi and Atemu and leave. I’ll leave to let you decide what you want to do.”
