~At the Hospital~

"I'm afraid you've got cancer." Said doctor Nishio, to her patient that she has known since he was a little child, to his teen years.

Shockness came over the 17-year-old who has just been told this terrible news. 'How could I have cancer? My mother or father have never had cancer, and I've tried to stay healthy most of my life.
"Is there anything I can do to help myself?" Ryou asked.

"If you want to live, all I can tell you right now, is that you to treatments and try to stay as healthy as you can and listen to your doctors' instructions whatever they might, be no matter how much you disagree with them."

"What if I don't want to live?" Ryou asked, just out of curiosity.

She gave him a confused look 'Why wouldn't he want to live? Maybe he's just going through a hard time since his mother just past away a couple of years ago, and his father is always at a dig of some sort. What his case may be, I will try and help him as much as I can.' Doctor Nishio thought hopefully, glad that she thought of a reasonable explanation for his upsurd question.

"Well if that's the case, then I suggest you try to live a normal life as much as possible. Why would you not want to live, Ryou?" Doctor Nishio wondered.

Ryou tensed up a little bit, hoping that she wouldn't ask that question and get on with the rest of the appointment. "I'd rather not talk about it, sorry." Ryou whispered under his breath but loud enough for her to hear.

"Oh.okay...well, lets move on with the check-up. Open your mouth and say 'Ahh.'" said Doctor Nishio continuing on the appointment.

~Later~

"Okay Ryou, thanks for your time, you seem to be in good shape. Try to stay healthy and I'll call you to set up an appointment unless you decide to change you mind. Is that okay with you?" Doctor Nishio asked, making sure that this was all okay with her patient.

"Thank you, I guess I'll talk to you later then. Good-bye Doctor Nishio." Said Ryou.

"Now Ryou, how many times have I said that you can call me Cousin Angela or Angela? We're cousins, you don't have to be so formal." Angela said tired of this same conversation they had everytime he came over to get a check-up.

"Yea, I know, but.oh.nevermind, I'll try to remember Angela. Thanks again, bye!" Ryou said giggling while walking away towards his house about 7 blocks away from the hospital. 'She's so nice, she really is a good doctor, and cousin, she always seems to make people happy no matter how sad they may seem.' Ryou sighed while he started his long walk back to his home.

Angela giggles, then started walking back into the building 'I feel really sorry for Ryou, he has no family near him except me, but he only visits me for check-ups.' She sighs 'Maybe I should visit him one of these days to check on him, for a kid he's taking the cancer information thing pretty well. I wonder why Ryou asked what to do if he didn't want to live. Oh well, he seemed really disturbed about the subject.' Angela thought while she was sitting down at her desk in her office.

~Walking with Ryou~

'I'm glad she didn't ask too much about me not wanting to live. I don't think anyone does. It really sucks, I have cancer, and I don't want to live. If I do live, my life will be a living hell, just as it is now. Well, my life used to be good until HE arrived. HE just made things change for the worse. HE'S the person that has made me depressed and sad. What's even worse is that I have fallen for him. His name is Bakura. I fell in love with him when he was nice to me before he got his own body. Yes, Bakura's a spirit, from the Millenium Ring that my father gave me for my 16th birthday when he came back from a dig in Egypt. Bakura was nice to me, helped me with my homework and problems, but then he got his own body. He then started treated me like trash, he beat me up after he came home from a bar. Bakura also makes me feel useless to this world, that is one of the reasons why I don't want to live anymore. But somehow I think I'm still in love with him. I know if I told my friends this, they would think that I am a crazy person from mars. They all know that Bakura beats me, but no one will know that I have cancer. I don't think I have the heart to tell them, but who will care? Will they miss me if I live? Will they notice if I go to treatment every week? Will they notice if I'm sore or more sensitive to smell? Probably not.' Ryou sighs, thinking everything that he just thought was totally true. Ryou sighs again as he walks up to his front door steps.

Ryou took the key out from under the front door mat that said 'Welcome', opened the door and carefully placed the key back to the place that it has been before.

"Your late you little weakling." Bakura spat at Ryou as he walked into the room.

"Hello Bakura" Ryou said with sadness dripping off of every word. But of course Bakura didn't notice, after all, why would he care?

"What's for dinner bitch?" Bakura asked as if it was a normal question.

Ryou flinched at the little nickname that Bakura seemed to have given him after he got his own body. "I don't know, do you want anything inparticular?"

Bakura said, "I don't care as long as dinner is on the table, and it better be something that I like otherwise you shall suffer. Dinner will be ready at exactly 6 o'clock, if dinner isn't ready; you should know what would happen. I want everything to be nice and neat, and nothing should be out of place. Don't forget, I wait for no one!"

Ryou looked at Bakura in shock, "It's 5:30, there's no way I can cook that much in a half an hour!"
Bakura looked at Ryou angrily, "Don't you DARE raise your voice at me! Time is running out, and I suggest that you start to cook your ass off unless you want something bad to happen!" he said while getting inches away from Ryou's face, then turned around and started to walk up to stairs towards his room.

'I hate being so mean to him. I don't think he knows how much it hurts me to see him come home so sad and depressed, and when I look into his eyes, all I see is fear and nothing else.' Bakura thought while he was lying in his bed. Bakura loved Ryou very much, but he didn't think that his other half could ever love such a beast that treated him like shit. 'I've tried to be nice to him, but it only got me frustrated, and the only way that I know how to show anybody that I have feelings for them I only end up hurting them. I don't want to hurt Ryou like that, but by not telling him is hurting him and me more. It's really a stupid thing, whoever thought that three little words can be so difficult. But it is hard, very hard, I'm afraid of rejection, what'll happen to our little 'relationship' if you can even call it that?' Bakura sat there thinking if he should or shouldn't tell Ryou that he loved him or not, both of the possibilities had fairly good reasons and it was just hard to choose what to do. Before he knew it, it was 6 o'clock.
