Chapter 2
Your mouth is gaping open slightly, staring at the now dead man. Did Bakura just kill a man? No, there was no way. No way. You shook your head quickly from side to side and slid your hands onto your biceps rubbing them. You did this not so much because you were cold but to prove that this was real. Bakura, noticing this, shrugs out of his leather jacket and hands it over to you while he moves closer to you. You just stare at it, still not able to believe whats going on. Bakura, sweet Bakura, is not only significantly taller and more masculine, he just killed a man. He chuckles to himself and places the coat on your shoulders, and the full length coat drags on the floor slightly.
You open your mouth to say something to him but are swiftly cut off, "Are you alright?" He asks. Wow. His voice is also lower and more ruff. What happened to him?
You nod and take a step back from him, tripping over the coat hanging loosely off of you. Bakura reaches out with on swift movement and places a hand firmly on the small of your back and pushes your back upright, and straight into himself. He licks his lips and stares down at you, now that the two of you are merely inches away. "Watch your step there, love." He breathes, his breath caressing your cheek and you smell a small hint of peppermint.
"You...You just k-killed a man!" Your words come out in a mess, not even noticing how shaky you were till just now. You place both of your hands on his hard chest, pushing away from him but he just holds you there, grinning at you.
"A man who had lustful wishes that he was planning to fullfill, whether you were okay with it or not. Not only that, but after having raping you, you most likely would've been found in a ditch, alone, naked, and not one breathe left in your body. I didn't think you'd want that, _____."
"No...No I don't want that, but you didn't have to kill him! What happened to you? You never would've done that before..."
Bakura tilted his head, still not releasing you, sighed and said, " I am Bakura. I have just become more myself."
In a final attempt to get him away, you once again push on him, and this time, he releases. "You need to call the cops. I need to call the cops. Omigod, I can't be here, I need to go home.." You start to panic and quickly walk away, heading in the direction of your house. You hear footseps behind, closer and closer till Bakura is standing right beside you. "Would you like me to walk you home? It would be extremely rude of me to allow a young, beautiful, and helpless.." This last word lingers on his lips a bit longer than the rest, making you more concerned than it should, "Girl to go alone the rest of the way, especially after such a frightening ordeal where she was almost kidnapped, sexually mutilated and then killed."
You stop, pulling his jacket closer around you and stare up at him. It was true, you were scared and didn't want to go home alone. But this was the Bakura who Yugi had talked to strangly about, who made women disappear. But none of them were his friends, you had no reason to worry right? The corners of his mouth were pulled up in a way that made it look like he was trying not to smile. He was just going to walk you almost home, not all the way. You weren't going to let him know where you live. "Okay.. Please walk me home. But that's it." He nods and extends his elbow to you, implying that you should hold onto his bare arm. You reluctantly grab onto it and he pulls you closer and begins to walk forward, towards the way you were headed.
Was this really the best idea? You were really getting worried but he seemed to have no ill intentions towards you. And it was really scary out. Bakura was always sweet to you and he had just saved your life. Maybe this wasn't so bad, it was probably for the best. As soon as you had got home, you'd call the cops and report that you had found a man killed outside of the market and leave out the details that he had tried to assult you and that your friend Bakura had snapped his neck like it was a twig. It was all going to be okay and you started to calm yourself down. It was actually pretty peaceful, walking in the night, and contanst step, step, step of you and Bakura's feet. You begin to day dream and not even think about anything other than how nice it is. Bakura makes simple conversation about where he's been, which is his own apartment he was given by his boss to live in. He tells you about how nice it is to be on his own and you just start to enjoy yourself. Until you realise you're not at your house. You're at an apartment complex.
