Hey everyone sorry school-work has been keeping me busy but
I�ll try and update the rest of my stories later today, but no promises in case
something unexpected comes along! I hope you like chapter 5 to �Business Hours�
ENJOY!!!
What does PWP mean? I�ve seen it with a lot of Jou/Seto
fic�s and I don�t know what it means, can someone help me out?

Marik sighed contentedly hugging Ryou to him. "You are cute..." he mumbled kissing Ryou on the cheek softly,
looking at him with the most sincerity a person could have. Sure, it was drug-induced sincerity, but
sincerity nonetheless.
Ryou bit his lower lip his mind racing, he tried to push
Marik off him but he had a death grip around him that was not going to budge.
He wasn�t sure if Marik was drunk or under drugs or anything, he had no clue on
how to respond to this at all.
"Um...thank you for helping me out and all but um don't
you think you should go home now or something I mean it's late in all."
Ryou said maybe he wasn�t too far-gone and Ryou could reason with him.
Marik snuggled Ryou gently.
"I could go home..."
he murmured gently combing through Ryou's hair with his hand
soothingly.
"I just want to be neou..ou..." he added laying his head on Ryou's shoulder
and looking at him innocently, which in itself was strange.
He felt Marik's arms loosen a bit and pulled away from his
grasp quickly. "Um...listen I really think you should go home, we could
spend time together tomorrow maybe when your nice and rested." Ryou said
placing the couch in-between them although Marik just looked at him strangely
for a moment. The phone rang breaking Ryou's thought's as he kept his eye on
Marik who was thankfully staying exactly where he was and backed up toward the
phone picking it up and it was Otogi.
"What is it?" Ryou asked a little flustered by
Marik and curious considering it was after hours for their work time.
"Seto wants to have you again tonight, he offered a lot
of money up front so I couldn't refuse him." Otogi explained
"Are you sure he wants me? Don't you mean Malik?"you you said in a hushed whisper as he looked warily at Marik who looked almost
ready to pass out.
"no, he specifically wanted you, and you are not going
to screw up this much money for me all right Ryou?" Otogi said in low
dangerous tone.
"B-but...I can't get a cab at this hour and it's much
to far to walk." Ryou reasoned
"Don't worry about that, Seto said he would pick you
up." Otogi said as he hung up the phone.
"...great." Ryou said as he looked at the confused
obviously not-all-there Marik.
Thankfully, Malik came down the stairs a second later.
"Who was on the phone?" He asked giving Marik a strange look.
"Is he all right?" Malik asked.
"Um, yeah, just some late night business that I have to
attend to don't you worry and I�ll be home as soon as I�m done all right? And
please make him go home I swear if he wasn�t so...dazed I guess, I would still
be stuck in his death grip of a hug." Ryou said as he went out the front
door leaving Malik with Marik.

Seto smirked as Ryou got into his car, he'd been waiting in
the parking lot of the apartment building Otogi had sent him to for about 10
minutes before the white haired bishounen had stepped out. "It's good to see you again Ryou." He said smartly, voice just ridden with a
sadistic amusement. He pulled out of
the parking lot and began his drive back to his own home.
"Why didn't you want Malik?" Ryou snapped at him,
Seto rarely if ever choose him especially when Malik was free, "Why put up
so much money for me?" Ryou asked as that all to familiar sadistic smirk
crossed his features, he was up to something.
"I decided I needed a little change in pace." Seto said coyly chuckling slightly. "Why should you complain? You need the money. It's not hard to tell, Malik struggles for
the money to pay for that shabby apartment of yours." Seto added as he pulled up to his home and
cut the engine, opening Ryou's door and letting him out before walking to the
front door and unlocking it.
Ryou walked inside the mansion uneasily wanting so badly not
to of left the apartment not to have gotten into the car not to be inside but
he feared what Otogi would do should he screw this up for him.
"Well then why after hours, you know our schedule well
enough, why now?" Ryou asked
"You never told me your talent runs in the family."
Seto said his voice dripping of Malice when he did so.
Ryou looked at him shocked "...W-what?" Ryou asked
not wanting to hear what Seto just said to him.
Seto smiled viciously.
"You see, I never would have imagined your mother had been a
prostitute..." He said in a soft
malicious tone. "Or that she had
plans for a better life...tsk it's only a shame that she died. But you know all about that don�t
you?" He chuckled, sitting on the
couch. "You know all about how she
died...after all, it was your fault."
Ryou�s lower lip trembled as he backed up slightly, he felt
like he was eight years old again and Seto was his father blaming him for his
mothers death, he shook his head trying to rid himself of those thoughts.
"Y-you don't know anything about my mother!" Ryou yelled at Seto but
he stuttered making it hard for almost anyone to take him seriously. "It
wasn�t my fault..." Ryou said although it sounded more like he was trying
to convince himself other than Seto.
"Oh? She died
protecting you. She died, because she
wanted to quit her work and be a proper mother for you. You were the reason she quit, which is what
got her killed to begin with. YOU were
her angel of death...her complete and utter end. You look so innocent...and yet, you have blood...blood all over
your body. The blood of your
mother." Seto said smirking. "Your father blames you still, doesn't
he? Who wouldn't? You look so much like her as well...."
Ryou felt his eyes sting with tears, his father�s words
hitting him like bricks.

~"She was
nothing but a lowly whore! I don't even know if you are my son...you look just
like her! A weak pathetic child I hope your not mine, then I could leave you so
you could become a street walker just like her looking for lonely men!" He
spat. Ryou had just told him that he was gay, that he wasn�t straight and he
exploded started ranting about how it was all his mothers fault that he was
such a worthless piece of trash and on and on...~

Ryou swallowed nervously looking at Seto "You don't
know anything about me or my mother...I am not responsible for her..."
Ryou let out a chocked cry as he backed up into a wall looking at the ground,
god how he wanted to cry all this was hurting so much! He didn't want to let
Seto break him down like this, but he was actually telling the truth, Ryou did
blame himself and so did his father.
�Oh but you were...you were responsible. If you hadn't been there, she wouldn't have
given her life to protect yours. She
must be proud...to see that you have become EXACTLY what she died trying to
escape." Seto laughed, approaching
Ryou now, knowing that Ryou was far too emotional to sling back words or fists
of defense.
"You became a little whore, just like your mother
was...because your fr har hates you. He
can�t stand the mere sight of you. He
knows, and every time he looks at you, he is disgusted. He sees the MURDERER of his wife! You killed her." Seto said smugly, crossing his arms. "You may as well have pulled the
trigger on her yourself, because you are the reason, YOU are the cause of her
death, and now you are honoring her memory, buy taking up the family
business."
Ryou felt a few tears slip down his cheeks as he shook his
head silently �no� as he hugged himself. "You have no idea...what she went
through...what I went through...you have no right...to talk about her like
that." Ryou said in-between sniffling and tryin sto stop his tears.
"She tried..." Ryou said sinking to his knees not able to think of
what to say or do to make this any better for himself. The only other people
that knew about this was the police and Ryou's dad...they kept it hidden from
everyone, not even Malik or Yugi knew about it.
Seto kneeled down to look Ryou in the eyes, still not
satisfied that Ryou was broken enough to please him. "I'm not talking about your mother...I'm talking about
you. Pathetic little dropout, night
school, street whore...Ryou. The small
insignificant little peon, who thinks that he isn't responsible for the death
of possibly the ONLY person in this world who loves him, who will EVER love
him." Seto said smirking. "The person who gave him life, who he
killed. You killed her, and you know
it...and now, you are exactly what she was trying to save herself and you from
being a whore." Seto paused "Or is there something else, an under
educated murderous little whore like you wishes to tell me? That it wasn't your fault? Or that you could justify it by some means
with the 'I was only a child' kick. It
was you, your wretched living being that cost her, her life. YOU are her executioner, and you now honor
her memory by whoring yourself off just as she did." Seto laughed maliciously. "Ironic isn't it?That you didn't learn from her mistakes,
that you didn't have more ret fot for her legacy and life lost. Ironic that you would do exactly what she
was trying to get out of. She wanted
better for you, but I suppose her last wishes fall on your deaf
ears."
Ryou had fisted his hands is his hair as he closed his eyes
tightly as tears streamed down his face and his body shook violently while he
shook his head no. "I was only a child...I didn't ask to be rudely
awakened by her death and what those men did to me!" Ryou yelled as he
stared at the floor, "I didn't ask for my father to hate me, and I most
certainty didn't ask for this kind of life." Ryou said in a sob of
protest. "J-just stop...please stop it." Ryou begged so he he didn't
know if he could take much more of it.
"I wont stop it.
I don�t listen to murderers."
Seto smirked taking Ryou's chin in his hand. "I especially don�t listen to, or have respect for those who
kill their own mothers. Shame. I kI waI was right. You'll never amount to anything, and when
Malik decides that you aren't worth his company anymore...you'll be back on the
street, probably to die in a ditch somewhere.
Cold and lonely, with no one to blame but yourself. You can�t lie about your mother's fate
forever, nor can you hide it forever. I
pity you, but being but a mere whore, WHOM I have hired...I expect a good
evening for it. I assume you've had
MORE than enough practice in your mother's trade to do what whores do
best."
Ryou managed to gather up the courage to stand up and
actually tell Seto what he should have done in the first place. �No� Ryou said
wiping at his eyes in a futile effort to rid himself of tears, Seto had hit him
deeper and harder than anyone in his entire life has hurt him and he couldn�t
stop crying. Seto obviously angry with Ryou slapped him hard across the face
sending him crashing to the ground as Seto grabbed a fist-full of Ryou�s hair
making him lift his face off the ground.
"No isn't an option.
You and I both know that, besides I'm sure Otogi would be pisseyoneyond
reason if I had to retract the money I offered. Which would make him crack down on you AND your roommates. Besides...I'm feeling gabby. What if I decide to tell your friends
exactly what you did to your mother? hmmm?" Seto said viciously.
"One way or another, you're going to give me what I pay you for, or
suffer deeply for it."
"Why are you doing this to me?!" Ryou asked moving
further away from him "What did I ever do to you! I've only done what you
said, so has Malik, what is wrong with you! Are you not satisfied until you've
completely broken someone?" Ryou asked not wanting to do this tonight not
wanting Seto to come within a hundred feet of him.
"In a way, you are right. Nothing makes me happier than watching your whole life
shatter. But you aren't my goal, just a
stepping stone on my path, little whore."
Seto said smirking. "I have
a much bigger goal, but I musy thy that breaking you into a million unfixable
pieces is indeed fun, now what is it going to be? Are you going to say no, have Otogi crack down and end up losing
your apartment along with your friends, them all knowing that you killed your mother...or
are you just going to do your job?"
Ryou's eyes once again broke into tears, he could handle
Otogi crashing down on him even losing the apartment, and he was only there so
he didn't have to face his father...but he couldn�t handle his friends looking
at him like a murderer. They would of course ask if it was true and Ryou did
blame himself he always had blamed himself in some way that his mother died
because of him not to mention she wanted better for him and he becomes
something so worthless. He hated Seto, he always hated him truthfully but now
he had such a weapon to use against him now that Ryou couldn't defend himseagaiagainst.
"Fine...what do you want?" Ryou asked refusing to
make eye contact with him.
Seto smirked.
"I WANT Malik, and since he will not listen to reason, YOU are
going to convince him for me. Unless of
course you think you could handle him looking at you like the murderer, you
are. Could you take the gaze? The pity that he feels, which wouldn't be
for you. He might even hate you for
it...could you live with yourself if your friends wouldn't talk to you ever
again? If they cast you aside, because
of what you've done? You are my bridge
to my success, and I intend to walk all over you until I reach my
goal." Seto laughed slightly. "And, you'll do as I say...because you
don�t want anyone knowing your secrets do you?
If you don�t, I could have anyone who even remotely knows you knowing
within a matter of hours." He
added venomously as he looked into Ryou's tear-filled eyes, taking a sadistic
humor in the emotional gash that he knew he had torn open wickedly, and rubbed
salt into.
"I...But I can't make him love you! He hates you! I
can't change how he feels...how am i supposed to make him love someone he
hates?" Ryou asked desperately what Seto was asking was next to impossible
not to mention he didn't want his best and most trusted friend in Seto's hands
of all people, he would rather sleep with poisons reptiles.
"I don�t care how you do it, but you will. You're a good negotiator...figure it
out. I always get what I want, and if
you screw this up and I don�t...you'll be living hell for the REST of your
life...no one you will ever meet will ever see ANYTHING but a murderous little
whore, your business will slump and you'll be begging for pennies!" Seto spat.said stepping out and backtracking since he didn't drive to far from where he
saw him.

"Ryou?" Yami asked approaching him. "Why are you out so
late?" Yami asked but Ryou collapsed onto the pavement with no warning
whatsoever and Yami didn't reach out quick enough to catch him. He lifted Ryou
up on the ground realizing he had passed out. He looked over Ryou's body he
looked like he had been beaten up really badly as he cradled his body and took
him back to the car climbing in the back and telling Bakura to take the wheel.

"We need to get to a hospital!" He said quickly making sure Ryou was
at least still breathing which he was.

Bakura, being not so into 'caution' quickly sped towards the hospital, which
caused the tires of their car to screech a bit. "Jeeze, what sort of
shit did he get into?!" He said as he turned into the hospital
parking lot, seeing that the emergency entrance was full. "What
happened to him anyway?" Bakura growled shaking his head as he and
Yami entered the hospital, immediately declaring the emergency and ing ing Ryou
as close to 'immediate' attention as possible. "Could you call his
room-mates? I'm gonna go with him to make sure he's ok, and to give the
doctors what information I can." Bakura mumbled.

"Yes, and I don't know what happened to him, he passed out when I said his
name." Yami said taking the front seat and driving it away from the
emergency exit and to a parking place pulling out his cell phone and dialing
the number of his roommates, they had given them their number earlier as a
curtsey as he waited for someone to answer.

Malik answered the phone finally back
from convincing Marik that his own bedroom was better to sleep in than Ryou's.
"Hello?" He said sighing and taking a deep breath, Marik really
could struggle quite a bit when he wanted something. Malik was sure
though, with whatever he'd been on it would have been easier than that to get
him out of his apartment.

"Malik?" Yami said making
sure "this is Yami listen we were driving back home and we stumbled across
Ryou...he's really badly hurt we're at the hospital right now, Bakura's with
him." Yami explained.

Malik felt his stomach turn slightly. "W-what? Are you
sure? What happened?!" He said as the initial shock set
in. "Where? How? When?!" he blurted taking the
cordless phone and running upstairs to get his coat. He was already
freaking out, and for all he knew Ryou had been mugged, or hit by a car, or
worse!
�Ryou�s
in the hospital, yes I�m sure, and I don�t know what happened. He looked like
he was beat up or something�we passed him driving home and we were going to
offer him a ride but he passed out and I noticed what a bad shape he really was
in.� Yami explained. �I think you should come down here, he�ll probably want to
see you or Yugi when he wakes up.� Yami said softly.
Malik threw the coat on himself and said a quick goodbye to
Yami, before dashing out the door and running as quickly as he could to the
hospital, seeing as how a cab was next to impossible to get at this hour of the
night. He burst into the waiting room
panting, and slightly pink from his jogging.
"Ryou..." He mumbled
looking for Yami and any signs of new news.
"That was fast..." Yami said walking up to him.
"Were still waiting unfortunately, no news yet on his condition at all,
they asked us about his father but we didn't know anything about his
family...they gave us this to fill out but as I�ve said we don't know anything,
do you?" Yami asked handing him the clipboard as he nodded his head slowly
looking extremely worried about Ryou. "He'll be okay Malik, do you have
any clue what might have happened?" Yami inquired to Malik who opened his
mouth but quickly closed it and shook his head 'no' telling Yami that he knew
nothing although exactly what happened or pretty damn close but wasn't about to
tell anyone.
Malik began filling out what he knew in the spaces provided
on the paper...there were a few blanks, such as family history and social security
number, and he wasn't particularly sure if he knew all of Ryou's
allergies. Other than that, for the
most part, he turned the clipboard in completed. "Poor Ryou..."
He mumbled shaking his head and sitting down. "I hope he's ok..."
The doctor approached them taking the clipboard from Malik
thanking him softly he kept on glancing at Bakura curious if the two were
brothers but if they were he would have probably filled out the information.
"Your friend should be just fine, looks like the victim of a mugger
although it appears he has been raped as well...he's bruised up pretty badly
nevertheless he should be able to go home later tonight after all our test
results come back to make sure he'll be fine." I think it would be best if
only one of you visited him, he seems really shaken about the whole
thing." The doctor said handing the room number and floor number to Yami
who handed to Malik knowing who was going to visit him without having to be
told.
"Me and Bakura are going to head home, unless you and
Ryou will need a ride home?" Yami asked making sure
Malik thought for a moment.
"A ride might be nice...I doubt he'll want to walk
back..." he said softly, before
getting up and heading toward the room Ryou was in. "I'd really appreciate it by the way..." he said over
his shoulder to Yami. After a short
walk, Malik finally found Ryou's room and went in silently. "Ryou?
Are you ok?" he said biting
his lip, knowing that probably wasn't the best question to ask.
Ryou looked at Malik his eyes stung slightly when he did so
at all the things Seto had told him to tell Malik...he didn�t want to do it but
of all the things Seto could use against him it was almost impossible.
"I'm sorry for lying..." Ryou said softly "I
didn't intend for this to happen." He said swallowing nervously a she
looked away from his friend.
Malik took a seat next to the hospital bed Ryou laid
in. "Well...what exactly
happened? I don�t care that you lied to
me Ryou...your safety is what I care most for...and you've obviously been in
danger...tell me what happened."
Malik said shaking his head and running a shaking hand through his
hair. "This is awful...I
mean...you're in a HOSPITAL Ryou..."
"We've been through this before Malik, last time it was
YOU in the hospital and as I recall you had to stay overnight as well...I�m not
that bad really, a few bruised ribs and a broken wrist is all that�s really
wrong with me." Ryou sighed softly
"I was told by Otogi to go to Seto's it was a no questions thing I didn't
have much of a choice...he just wanted to hurt me to show you." Ryou said
sadly not wanting to continue with Seto's sick manipulation.
Malik growled.
"You have to tell Otogi then, I don�t want you going to Seto's
anymore..." Malik said before
shaking his head and biting his lip.
"He's using my friends against me now..." he mumbled softly. "Ryou, I'm SO sorry...that shouldn't have ever
happened. You're going to take a long
vacation, no buts. I am not letting you
out of the apartment until your bones are healed." He said firmly. "I'm so sorry..."
"No..." Ryou said softly shaking his head,
"We can't tell Otogi which means I can't take a break." Ryou said
equally firm to show Malik he was serious although the confusion was evident
upon his face. "I wish I could explain but I can't...Seto told me to tell
you that basically if you want him to stop hurting me and Yugi then come to him
willingly, although I would never ask you to do such a thing." Ryou said
quickly, "I...he's using me against you and I�ll be damned if I let him
get what he wants so easily..." Ryou growled at all the emotional pain he
had cause him.
"Ryou...I cant have him just hurting you and Yugi, this
isn't even your fight...you're just a casualty..." Malik said sighing. "We CAN tell Otogi, and you will take a
break...look at yourself! You're torn
up one side and down the other!
Please...let me tell Otogi, if you wont. You're in no condition to work like that." Malik said after a moment. "I'd sooner go to Seto, than see you
working and hurt more. This could get a
lot worse, with very little effort..."
"Then so be it!" Ryou yelled at him seeing the
shocked expression on Malik�s face making him soften a little "You don't
understand Malik, and your wrong, this became my fight when he did this...it's
not like I want to work but we cannot tell Otogi for the simple reason that he
will cut Seto off and what good would that do? You know that Seto has the
resources to just kidnap me or Yugi...he has the resources to do whatever he
wants and you know that.&quoyou you said slipping out of bed a small limp to
his walk but nonetheless pulled his clothes back on.
Malik bit back a few tears.
"What am I supposed to do!?
Just let him torture both you and Yugi forever?!" He said so softly, that he could barely even
hear himself. "Ryou...I cant do
that...both you and Yugi...you're like family to me...and I...I just cant force
myself to pretend not to see what he's done to you. Pretend that I wont see what he will do." he mumbled finding the tile floor
particularly interesting at the moment.
"Would you be able to do this, if you were me?"
"No...but I would listen to them, maybe if you talk to
Seto he might be negotiable about all this." Ryou said softly as he took
Malik's hand in his own. "I...I didn't mean to yell at you either, it's
been a rough night." Ryou swallowed biting back his pain "Is anyone
else here? Yugi?" Ryou asked.
Malik shook his head a bit.
"I didn't wake Yugi up, he practically passed out the moment he got
home, and I was in such a hurry...I was worried when Yami called. We're gonna hitch a ride home with
them...ok?" he said softly. "You don�t need to be walking right
now..."
"Do they...know anything about what really
happened?" Ryou asked softly not wanting to expose all that he and his
friends did for a living. "And I agree with you on the aspect of not
walking home unless you want to carry me." Ryou said softly as Malik put
his arm around him and helped him walk to the elevator.
"I didn't tell them anything...and since you're going
to work even though I wish against it...I wouldn't mind carrying you
there..." Malik said smiling. "Provided you wouldn't be too 'publicly
humiliated' at my caring for your own personal health and safety." He added smartly, letting Ryou lean on him
and take some of the pressure off his ribcage.
"Just...please take some easy customers or something...at the very
least." Malik mumbled as the
elevator reached the appropriate floor and they got off.
"I...I could ask Joey for a favor, I could pay him back
or something." Ryou said pulling out the hundreds, Seto gave him and
handing it to Malik. "Here, at least it some good news." Ryou said as
they stepped out of the elevator and walked up to Yami and Bakura who looked at
Ryou pity washed over their features as he buried his face in Malik�s shoulder
not wanting to see their expressions at the moment.
Malik sighed.
"Ryou's grateful for the ride, so am I....thank you." Malik said shaking his head. "He's not in the best of condition for
walking...so it's really nice of you two to do this for us..."
Bakura smiled a bit, which was uncharacteristic for him, and
nodded. "Hell, if I was shit-up
like that, I know you'd do everything you could for me...so it's only fair that
we help you. Good neighbor rule of some
sort..." he said coughing a bit
and turning to the door. "Let's
get the hell out of here, I hate hospitals...too friggin clean."
Yami slapped Bakura upside the head, it would be nice if you
would be quite about Ryou's condition." Yami said in a harsh whisper
thankful that neither of the two younger boys heard him. He approached Ryou
slowly.
"The car is a bit far Ryou...I don't think you should
walk that much, we should wait for a wheelchair." Yami said softly.
"I...I really want to go home now, I�ll be fine."
Ryou said quickly
Yami looked at Malik concerned but shrugged slightly picking
Ryou up easily who clung tightly to Malik's shirt in doing so. 'He's so
light...' Yami though mainly to himself as eh looked at Malik's amused grin
probably from the adorable blush Ryou was giving off. "Sorry, I hope you
don't mind cause your gonna have to deal with it for now." Yami said as he
began walking out the door.
"Thank-you...both of you." Ryou said softly.

Well that�s it for now, I hope you guys aren�t too mad at me
for hurting little Ryou and don�t worry there will be plenty of Yugi angst next
chapter forse wse who are waiting for it! The next couple of chappies have
lot�s of Yugi angst, he�ll get his too ^_~ Anyway if you know what PWP means
