Omega19x: *weak moan*
ph33r my rod: *holding Ryou up, dabbing a cool wet rag
against the back of his head* "...Ryou?"
Omega19x: *weak blink*
Omega19x: *and a startled jump, realizing he is in the
arms of someone, yet not coherent enough to see who*
ph33r my rod: "It's okay, Ryou. It's me. You're back
home now."
Omega19x: *trembles, and blinks*
Omega19x: "... M..Malik?"
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: "... oh god... that... that was like... like a
real thief of shadow..." (pun intended by mun, not by
charrie)
ph33r my rod: (( XD ))
Omega19x: "... is... is he gone?"
ph33r my rod: "He's gone now... it's okay."
Omega19x: ".. my... my head hurts..."
Omega19x: "... my back hurts... oh everything hurts..."
ph33r my rod: *still dabbing at it with the rag* "I know...
you hit it pretty hard. I'm sorry I couldn't stop him..."
Omega19x: "... he... c..came out of nowhere..."
Omega19x: "... I... I came up here... so... so yami
wouldn't be angry with me... and... and I saw the thief
king at my window.
ph33r my rod: "...he wasn't angry at you, Ryou. He was
angry at the situation in general... and he knows you were
just trying to make him feel better."
Omega19x: "... but... I was making it worse... I know
it..."
Omega19x: *winces* "... sorry..."
ph33r my rod: "..." *gently hugs Ryou, trying not to hurt
him*
Omega19x: "... it.. was Mokuba in there..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "...yeah.
Omega19x: *groans* "..."
Omega19x: "... M..Malik... I ... think I'm... going to be
sick..."
ph33r my rod: "...what, like sick-to-stomach sick?"
Omega19x: "... l..like throw up... sick..."
ph33r my rod: "...oh hell." *helps Ryou up and into the
bathroom*
Omega19x: *pukage*
ph33r my rod: *holds his hair back?*
Omega19x: *probably bloody hair too, eww*
Omega19x: (vomiting is something that often happens
after a big blow to the head. Trust me on that one.)
ph33r my rod: (( ...huh. *makes note* ))
Omega19x: (I've had a concussion before.)
Omega19x: (granted I was 5, but still.)
ph33r my rod: (( Ouch. x.x ))
Omega19x: "... s..sorry..."
ph33r my rod: "It's not your fault, Ryou..."
Omega19x: *he seems pretty out of it still*
ph33r my rod: *helps him back into his room* "Do you
need anything...?"
Omega19x: "..." *Ryou goes slack in your arms*
ph33r my rod: "...Ryou?!"
Omega19x: *is slack*
ph33r my rod: *gently lays him down on the bed, checks
for a pulse*
Omega19x: *weak blink* "... wh..where am I?"
ph33r my rod: (( 'Cause you never can be too sure with
him... ))
ph33r my rod: "You're back in my room, Ryou..."
*brushes some hair out of his face*
Omega19x: *groans*
Omega19x: *is quite drowsy, almost slipping in and out
of consciousness*
ph33r my rod: "..." *wonders if he should get him to a
hospital or something*
Omega19x: *duh*
ph33r my rod: *heck with it, calls a
taxi/ambulance/whatever they need to get there since Isis
isn't there and he ain't driving*
Omega19x: (you were afraid of that)
ph33r my rod: (( Quite. XD ))
Omega19x: *magical hospitallapse*
ph33r my rod: *to Skip-bo General!*
Omega19x: *and not Uno!*
ph33r my rod: *magical waitlapse and whatnot*
Omega19x: *and Dr. Malouf seeing to Ryou, of
course*
Omega19x: (yeah, I finally named him)
ph33r my rod: (( XD Yay. ))
ph33r my rod: (( brb ))
ph33r my rod: (( Quick question: on Saturday, will I be
able to either a) stay the night or b) have someone take
me back home, 'cause yeah... my parents aren't going to
want to drive out to Irving and back twice in one day. ^^;;
))
Omega19x: (I'm sure I can find some way to get you
home. Kat's staying the night on Saturday, since she's
coming up from San Antonio.)
ph33r my rod: (( Okay. ))
Omega19x: (but if we need to, I'll see what I can do
about you staying.)
ph33r my rod: (( Alrighty. I just need to know in the next
couple of days. ))
Omega19x: Kat and I both have cars. So I'm sure we
can do something.
ph33r my rod: (( Kay. :D ))
Omega19x: (and dad just volunteered to take you
home)
Omega19x: (so you've got a definite ride home from
somewhere)
ph33r my rod: (( XD Okay, that works. ))
Omega19x: (cuz I wouldn't want a party without my
Malik-kun)
ph33r my rod: (( Aww~ 8D ))
Omega19x: *eventually the doctor comes back out*
ph33r my rod: *looks up*
Omega19x: "Ah, Mr. Isthar, It seems we will be seeing
a lot of each other in the future."
ph33r my rod: *blinks* "...why?"
Omega19x: "Well, you were just in here two days ago,
with Mr. Ryou Bakura. And now you're in here today."
ph33r my rod: "...oh yeah."
Omega19x: "And at least one of you, preferably Mr.
Bakura, will be here until tomorrow."
ph33r my rod: "...what's wrong with him?"
Omega19x: "He's a lucky one, that's for sure. The CAT
scan doesn't show any bleeding around the brain. But he
suffered quite a nice concussion. I'd like to keep him
overnight for observation, just to make sure nothing
serious develops."
Omega19x: "It's not likely that it will, but given his past
medical file, it's better to be safe than sorry."
ph33r my rod: "..." *nods*
Omega19x: "You're welcome to stay with him a while if
you wish. If all is good, he'll be released in the morning."
ph33r my rod: "...okay."
Omega19x: "The receptionist can tell you what room
he's been placed in. I need to see to another patient."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Alright... thanks."
Omega19x: (see, a nicer doctor)
ph33r my rod: (( 8D Yay~ ))
Omega19x: *magical roomlapse?*
ph33r my rod: *indeed*
Omega19x: *Ryou is resting in the bed, the wound
cleaned and bandaged in the back of his head, which is
covered mostly by his white hair*
ph33r my rod: *walks over and sits in a chair next to the
bed, gently taking Ryou's hand*
Omega19x: *weakly blinks* "... hey Malik."
ph33r my rod: *small smile* "...hey."
Omega19x: "... at least the walls in this hospital are pale
blue..."
ph33r my rod: "Something different, huh?"
Omega19x: "...sorry..."
Omega19x: "I... tried not to pass out..."
ph33r my rod: *lifts Ryou's hand, kissing the back of it*
"...it's not your fault, Ryou. Mokuba was the one who... did
this to you."
Omega19x: "Dr. Malouf said I'd be all right... That they
just wanted to keep an eye on me overnight..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "They told me that, too."
Omega19x: "... something about only slightly brusing my
brain... but not too badly."
Omega19x: "or was that what I didn't do..."
ph33r my rod: "...he didn't say anything about that, no."
Omega19x: "... sorry... I'm a little dazed, I guess..."
ph33r my rod: *gives his hand a light squeeze* "...you're
going to be okay now, though."
Omega19x: *weak smile*
Omega19x: "... It's a good thing 'no hospitals' wasn't
part of my new years resolutions. Or I would have
broken it... twice now."
Omega19x: "And it's only January 8th..."
ph33r my rod: *nods and sighs a little*
Omega19x: "Dr. Malouf said tomorrow he'd look at my
back again, to make sure it didn't get hurt in the fight..."
Omega19x: "at least I was wearing the brace at the time.
So that probably helped."
ph33r my rod: "I hope so..."
Omega19x: "It probably did."
Omega19x: *small smile*
ph33r my rod: *reaches over and lightly strokes Ryou's
hair* "If so, then... that'll be good."
Omega19x: "yeah."
Omega19x: (you should post a comment to Mokuba's
journal saying where Ryou is.)
ph33r my rod: (( What, and have him come after Ryou
there? ))
Omega19x: (you don't have to say WHAT hospital, just
that they put him in the hospital. Mokuba doesn't know
that Ryou changed doctors)
ph33r my rod: (( ...OHHH. ))
Omega19x: "If I'm better tomorrow, I wouldn't be
surprised if he did a whole physical, just to get new
infomration that... well... wasn't put together by Shogi."
ph33r my rod: "...no, that wouldn't surprise me either."
Omega19x: "At least he's a lot nicer than Dr. Shogi."
ph33r my rod: *smiles* "Yeah, that's a relief."
Omega19x: "... though, this has been a really strange
week... First we get back to normal, and now, nobody's
normal... I'm a little scared..."
Omega19x: "... Does anybody else think it's my fault? Is
my yami still mad?"
ph33r my rod: "I don't really know what's going on his
head right now... but no, I think Mokuba's the only one who
thinks it's your fault."
Omega19x: "... when he was talking... even in the thief
king's body... it sounded like... like Shadow..."
Omega19x: *trembles a little*
ph33r my rod: *kisses Ryou's hand again, petting his hair
in a comforting manner* "It's okay... I won't let him hurt
you again."
Omega19x: "... th..thank you, Malik..."
Omega19x: "... I'm sorry..."
Omega19x: "I should have never gone upstairs..."
ph33r my rod: "...but at least you're okay now."
Omega19x: "... I... made you worry..."
ph33r my rod: "..." *sighs* "Ryou, I'm always going to
worry about you, if only for the fact that you're not as
healthy as you should be. Whenever we're not together,
I'm gonna wonder if you're okay, or if you're hurt, or..."
*nuzzles his hand* "Telling me not to worry is like telling
Mokuba not to obsess over clothes."
Omega19x: "... I... I was so worried about you last
night..."
Omega19x: "... You... I had no idea you were in a
shadow duel..."
ph33r my rod: "...I didn't know other me was going to
make it one, either."
Omega19x: "... Believe me, I know what happens to the
loser in a shadow duel... you could have died..."
ph33r my rod: *sighs* "When I lost, he... summoned Ra.
I thought he was going to kill me... I really did..."
ph33r my rod: "But I told him I was sorry, for whatever I
did to piss him off so much... and I guess that was all that
he wanted."
Omega19x: "...thank goodness it was."
ph33r my rod: *smiles* "...things are okay between me
and him now, Ryou."
Omega19x: "So he's not going to try and kill you?"
ph33r my rod: *shakes head* "No. I think we're...
actually friends now."
Omega19x: "... I'm glad. And I'm glad you came back
safely."
ph33r my rod: "I'm sorry I made you worry so much...
but I couldn't tell anyone where I was going, or else... well,
yeah." *gives his hand another squeeze*
Omega19x: "... yeah... I would have gone with you,
though."
ph33r my rod: "...I know you would've. But I couldn't take
the chance of putting you in any danger."
Omega19x: "you're right about one thing you always
used to say... danger does follow both of us."
Omega19x: *weak smile*
ph33r my rod: *small smirk* "...we're really bad about
that, huh? But... I'm okay, you're okay..."
Omega19x: "that's right."
Omega19x: "thank goodness, that is right..."
ph33r my rod: *leans over, gently kissing Ryou's
forehead* "...yeah."
Omega19x: *blushes sweetly* "... I love you..."
ph33r my rod: *smiles* "I love you too."
Omega19x: *and Ryou dozes off, right in the middle of
the fluff*
