The Good Life (Collab)

Chapter 5

A/N: Hey ya'll! It's Kuro-chan and Capricorn here with the next chappie for the Good Life. Hehes, after this there will be between one to three more chappies before this will be finished. It's been almost ages since we've finished another one of our collabs. Doing these shortish ones helps in that regard. Hopefully ya'll are still liking the story. Anyways, please enjoy and R&R!

Yugi looked up, confused, but nodded. Getting up, he walked out, filled out the correct paperwork, got his property, and walked out. At the entrance, Yami heard Akefia say to Yugi, "If you lose my money by fucking up, I will kick your ass." Yugi gulped, but nodded. "Now, go home and call him." Akefia walked the other way.

Yami re-locked the cell, making sure the occupants remaining hadn't tried to escape. Once it's securely locked, he went back into the hallway. He gave a nod to Akefia, going on his way. He guessed he's back on the force now even though he doesn't like it. He wanted to be with Yugi.

Yugi had a text fight with Bakura on his way home with a lot of capital letters and the word fuck. But he felt better. No matter what, he had done the right thing. Going home, he flopped on his mattress. Noticing that one of Yami's bracelets was still there, he put it on. He felt silly, but he did.

Yami couldn't return back to Seth's. He didn't want to be tempted. Besides, his stuff is back at where Yugi lives. He decided to stay at the office for a while.

"Master...I mean, Ryou, I am here to pick you up for the dinner you didn't know Seto had planned." Reginald stated into the phone.

"Oh, I-I didn't know h-he planned that," blushed Ryou, changing quickly into better clothes before stepping outside. "Ok, I'm good to go."

Reginald smiled and opened the door. Driving Ryou to Kaiba mansion, the door was open on a beautifully lit yard.

"Thanks," smiled Ryou, stepping out, gazing in awe at the gorgeous building, gathering his composure he followed Reginald into the mansion.

A butler opened the door. Bowing, he took Ryou's shoes and directed him to a lavish dining room.

Ryou stepped inside, glancing around. He's not used to such a luxurious place.

Seto walked in, a dark cobalt V-neck sweater on with gray slacks. "Hungry?" He asked.

"Yeah," admitted Ryou, looking up at Seto when hearing him.

Seto nodded, offering a seat to Ryou.

Ryou sat; his movements graceful. He wears a blue striped white sleeveless sweat-shirt along with a pair of dark blue slacks. His socks are striped too. He has the Ring around his neck like usual since he normally is seen wearing it. The marks on his arms could be seen due to his arms not being covered. He thought he could trust Seto since he knew his secret. Besides, he might as well see the damage if he's going to help him through this.

Seto sat next to Ryou. Frowning he looked at the marks. Touching one gently he looked up, blue eyes troubled. "Why would you hurt something so beautiful?"

Ryou blushed, averting his eyes from him, "W-Well, some are from the heroin injections and the rest are from me cutting. I used to have pretty severe depression. It comes and goes at times. My brothers think I'm so perfect they don't bother to check on me, but no one is."

Seto frowned. He reached over, rubbing Ryou's cheek. "You are close."

Ryou leaned into his touch, "I-I'd think that's more you than me, but I'll trust your judgement."

Seto gave a small smirk. "Of course, because my judgment is impeccable."

"Exactly," pouted Ryou at seeing him smirk.
