Crystaldragon98: actually, his dad does catch them “in the act” so to speak.  But don’t forget, I put the lemons in separate chapters so those who are opposed to lemons do not have to be exposed to it.  What I am going to do is write the lemon scene, but in the following chappie, Ryou’s dad will tell Ryou he saw them in the act, but nothing will be graphically described.  This way lemon lovers like me can have their thing and others can have their thing.  Everybody wins!

Diamond: Glad you like, Diamond!  More on the way!

Digi: Actually, and this is going to shock you, Seto is going to act normally in his chappie.  He won’t be acting like a pansy. Promise.

Ssjgoddesschico: No, Ryou does not tell his dad.  However, Dad finds out first hand what their relationship is in the worst possible manner.

Randalberzerker:  I can’t wait for it either.  I promise it is coming up.  Shortly.  A few more chappies.

AngelBakuraIshtar45: Yes, Bakura and Ryou’s dad will be constantly at each others throats.  Neither of them can agree on anything and they both love Ryou. 

[…]-Bakura’s thoughts

Sleeping Angel

            After the movie, Ryou went upstairs and Bakura rewinded the movie.  “That was a good movie,” the parent commented.

“It’s one of our favorite, Ryou’s and mine.  It makes him happy after a bad day.”

Ryou’s dad put the empty popcorn bowl on the table.  “He does seem better now.”

“I can always tell when he’s had a bad day, so I do what I can to cheer him up.  You know, he really brightens up when you call him.”

The father ran his hand through his thinner hair.  “I wish I could be here for him, but archaeology is my life.  He has his life to live as long as he lives it right.”

Bakura gasped internally.  “What do you mean ‘as long as he lives it right?’  Is that according to how you think he should live his life?”

“He should be a morally good person.  Fulfill society’s expectations. Get a good education.  Get a good job.  Settle down with a nice lady.  That is living your life right.”

“That is your idea, though.  What if Ryou wants to live his life right by his own rules and his decisions?”

“As long as he sticks with the status quo.”

“What about doing what you want as long as you don’t hurt anyone?”

“We’d all like to do what we want, but there are many things out there which can hurt Ryou.  We can’t do what we want our whole life.”

“But if Ryou isn’t hurting anyone, what’s the harm?”

“It’s important to keep a good reputation.  Ryou’s young and if he ruins his good reputation-.”

“Don’t you want him to be happy?”

The father looked at Bakura.  “I want him to make others happy as well.”

“Making others happy is fine, but I just want him happy.”  Bakura ejected the tape and took the bowl into the kitchen and leaned over the sink.  [Ryou….I want to make you happy.]

            The father climbed the stairs quietly and opened the room to his son’s bedroom.  Ryou was fast asleep curled up, half covered under the sheets.  He walked up to him and pulled the covers over the sleeping boy.  A smile grazed Ryou’s face and he rubbed his son’s hair and listened to his calm breathing.

****Flashback******

            The baby cried through the night when we brought him home.  My wife was tired, but we took turns going to rock the baby.  I opened the door and looked at the infant in his crib crying.  I picked the baby out of the crib and sat with him in the rocking chair.  I rocked him quietly soothing him.  It was in no time at all that the baby was quiet.  He fell asleep.  He looked so beautiful when he slept.  This was certainly one of life’s best moments, having the child you love nestled in yoru arms.

***

            Ryou’s dad kissed his son on the forehead and began to creep out of the room when he saw Ryou’s ring on his side-table.  He grabbed it and walked to the moonlight coming through the window.  The glyphs declared, “Until death do us part.  Together Forever.”  The man stood shocked looking at his boy.  His son was courting!  HIS son!  His face beamed with fatherly pride trying not to wake his son eagerly and ask who the lucky girl was.  Ryou turned on his back and began to moan in his sleep.  “I……love…you.” Ryou gasped and began to grip the pillow tightly.  He replaced the ring on the table and began to once gain leave the room when another whimper left his son’s lips.  “Don’t…….let me…go.  Stay with me….for all time….my love.”  The father opened the door with pride.  His son had a secret admirer! The kid had his touch!  The ladies must be all over him shouting ‘Ryou, we love you!’ and ‘Ryou, you are so handsome!’. Such a stud!  He could see Ryou surrounded by ladies climbing over each other for a chance to look at his boy.  “He takes after his old man,” he said proudly as he returned to his bedroom for the night.

            Bakura finished the dishes and returned upstairs.  [I want him to be happy.  I don’t give a damn about what everyone else wants him to do.]  “He makes me happy.”  Bakura opened the door to Ryou’s bedroom.  Ryou was on his back, eyes closed, both hands gripping the pillow tightly.  “Bakura…..”  Bakura removed his shirt and the rings around his neck.  He slipped beside his lover and ran his fingers over Ryou’s stomach.  Bakura rolled over and put his head on Ryou’s chest and wrapped his arm around his chest.  “I want you to be happy, Ryou.  That is all I want.”

Ryou opened his eyes and saw Bakura’s head on his chest listening to his breathing.  Ryou ran his fingers along Bakura’s cheek.  “Yami?  Are you asleep?”

Bakura looked up at Ryou with a calm serenity in his eyes.  “I can’t sleep.  All day long I couldn’t wait for this moment.”  Bakura caressed Ryou’s cheek and ran his hand down Ryou’s tender neck and to his shoulders.  [‘I want him to make others happy?’  That’s what he’s done for me.]  “I apologize for my father, yami.”

“Ryou, shh..I don’t want to talk about him.  All I want now is you.”  Bakura began to nip at Ryou’s neck licking and sucking the skin which throbbed with his increasing pulse.  Ryou clawed passionately at Bakura’s shoulders.  The yami breathed harder as he ran his hand along Ryou’s chest rubbing.  Ryou arched into his yami’s touch.  Bakura pulled back from his kiss and looked at the passion-filled eyes of the other boy.  “I know you want to keep this a secret, Ryou, but I can’t hide my love from you forever.  I love you, Ryou, and I want you to know I will do anything to make you happy.  Ryou, tell me what you want.”

Ryou looked at Bakura.  He couldn’t hide his love for his yami.  His one smooth motion he wrapped his arms around Bakura’s neck sobbing and whimpering quietly.  “I want you, yami,” he whimpered taking Bakura into a deep kiss.
