Ryou yawned and wrinkled his nose at the sound of gameboy music. He opened an eye and caught sight of Bakura, seated quietly on his beanbag and fidgeting with a silver gameboy advance. He blinked a few times. "Where'd you get that?" He said gazing confusedly at his yami. "Oh...heh, picked it up at the store this morning." Ryou stared at his yami. "With what? I haven't given you any - -"

Bakura shrugged. "It was sitting out. So I took it." He said waving a hand at his hikari. Ryou gawked at his yami. "You STOLE it?!" Bakura chuckled. "What?" He said rolling his eyes as though it were not a REAL crime to steal. "If they didn't want it stolen, they shouldn't have left it sitting out unattended." Ryou raised an eyebrow. "By sitting out, you wouldn't perhaps mean...sitting behind a glass case, would you?" Bakura nodded. "Yes."

Ryou sighed. "A...glass case with a lock?" Bakura pushed a few more buttons. "It was a flimsy lock." Ryou sighed, more exasperated with his yami, than he was upset. "So...uhh...how do you USE these things?" Ryou fell back onto his mattress laughing. "You stole something you don't even know how to USE?" He said in-between chuckles. Bakura glared, as the gameboy made the sounds commonly known as death music.

"I didn't say that! I see people using these things all the time!" He grumbled, as Ryou began to laugh harder. "You don't know how to use it!" Bakura threw a nearby pillow at his hikari. "Shut up you! I can figure it out!" Ryou took a break from laughing to breathe, before continuing. "I said shut up!" Bakura said throwing another pillow. Ryou curled up into a ball on his bed chuckling as another pillow whacked him. "Ok, ok, ok! I'll stop!" He said breathing a bit hard. "Oh yami.what am I going to do with you?" He said shaking his head. Bakura scowled at Ryou. "Oh don't be mad at me..." Ryou said sitting up and letting out a slight snicker. "If you want...I can teach you how to use a gameboy." Bakura turned it off. "I'll figure it out myself!" he growled.

Ryou shrugged a bit. "Fine, suit yourself." He chuckled. "But PLEASE refrain from stealing anything ELSE." Bakura put the silver game system down. "I'm a tomb robber...its what I DO." He said in an 'you're being dumb' tone. Ryou sighed. "You're GOING to get caught. Punishments these days may not be so physically harsh...but I dont have funds for BAIL." Bakura shook his head. "As though simpletons of this time could catch me."

Ryou got up and stretched. "You got caught once before you know." Bakura slouched. "How many times are you going to bring that up?" He grumbled regretting the moment he told his hikari he had once been caught. "Until you stop letting those hands of yours get the better of you." Bakura smirked wickedly. Ryou turned slightly pink. "Ohhhh no! Stop RIIIIIGHT there! Dont you EVEN start! Its much too early for that." He said regretting the structure of his last statement. Bakura laughed a bit and got a wider, more wicked grin. Ryou scooted back a bit. "Hentai...honestly yami!" He said trying to get his yami's mind from the gutter. Bakura leaned back a bit. "Am I? Tell me...who's blushing more...me or you?" He said smirking. Ryou blushed deeper. His yami only grinned wider. "Complaints? I dont hear any...Good."

Ryou sighed. "Hentai..." He grumbled before picking up the clothes he had set out the night before. "You know you like it." Bakura sniggered. Ryou stuck out his tongue. "You've made my room a pig sty!" Bakura shrugged. "I dont see any of MY clothes on your floor." Ryou coughed blushing. "Thats not the point!" Bakura got up and walked over to Ryou, giving him a light kiss. "Then what is?" Ryou sighed and hugged his yami. "You're hopeless yami..." Ryou said smiling and shaking his head.

Bakura smiled as Ryou walked to school. He had a little supprise planned for his hikari. He picked up the phone and speed-dialed Ryou's father. "Hello...father..I was wondering if you could wire me some money...uh huh, I want to go to Egypt...yeah I know its sudden. I'm feeling a little stressed out. Yeah, I know about school. I already asked. Yes....yes. Thanks for understanding. Yes I love you too. Thank you so much..." Bakura hung up the phone. He'd already spoken to the school, they'd let "him" go to Egypt if he kept his homework and did a 5 page report on the history of Egypt.

Ryou blinked dumbly. "My goodness...this sure is a lot of work.." he said eying the huge list of assignments the teacher had given him. Yugi looked at it. "Good grief Ryou! You've got at least 3 weeks of work!" he said as they entered the game shop. "Hi Grandpa!" Yugi said smiling and giving him a quick nod. "Oh? Good afternoon Ryou! I wasn't expecting to see you today." The elder Mutoh said smiling and bowing slightly. "Thank you, Its good to see you too sir." Ryou said bowing back. Yugi's grandfather smiled and shook his head. "You're so well-mannered...you know you dont have to call me sir, we're all friends here."

Yami looked at the list of assignments. "Looks like you've got some serious work to do...you aren't in trouble are you?" Ryou shook his head. "No...the teacher just handed it to me and said to have a good time." Yami blinked and handed the list back to Ryou. Yugi shook his head. "Oh as if anyone could have a good time doing ALL that work!" Ryou put the list into his heavy book bag. "My bag is weighed down with everybook we've been giving this semester! I dont think I could carry one more book if I wanted to." Yugi chuckled a little. "Why would you want to?!" Yami smiled at his hikari better watch out Yugi, you might jinx yourself and get that much work too.

Yugi shook his head. "Grandpa would kill me! I could NEVER do that much! I'd lose attention and - - HEY! My favorite show is on!" Yugi said giving a fine example of short attention spans. Yami shook his head laughing. "Yes yes...nothing is as interesting as Iron chef." Ryou blinked. "He likes Iron chef?" He almost choked out. Yami nodded. "Thats...an unexpected thing...from Yugi." Yami chuckled before whispering. "He's trying to learn to cook without burning the food..." He said amused. Yugi was glued to the tv.

Ryou left the game shop shaking his head. "They never cease to supprise me." he said chuckling as he walked. He watched a few birds fly past as he wandered back to his house. He unlocked his door and came in, dropping his bookbag by the door. "I'm home!" He said blinking when not a sound greeted him.

Ryou walked around the house. "Where is he?" He said peeking into his room. "Yami?" he was about to check the study when Bakura snuck up behind him and pinched him...(you can guess where) Ryou jumped and squeaked. "Dont doooo that!" he said turning, blushing and holding his chest, to face Bakura. "You scared the gitters out of me!" Bakura chuckled. "Sorry..." He grinned. "Have a good day at school?" He asked after a moment. Ryou blinked. "You wouldn't believe what happened...I got an absolute TON of work." Bakura gave Ryou a mock supprised look. "No! Really?" Ryou stared at Bakura. "Yes! Its an absolute nightmare and - -" Ryou paused as Bakura began grinning widely. "...what did you do?" he said giving his yami a flat look.

Ryou sat in the airplane with his arms crossed watching the night sky as they flew to the city of endless sand and sun. "I cant believe you yami..." he mumbled. Bakura shook his head. "I promise, it'll be worth it." Ryou sighed. "It better be...5 pages?!" Ryou grimaced. "I'll never be able to think of that much to write on an ancient civilization!" Bakura thumped him on the head. "Ancient am I? I can name one person who will regret saying THAT tonight." Ryou rolled his eyes. "Bet me...I can abstain." Bakura smirked. "I can seduce." Ryou blushed. "I dont have to take that." Bakura chuckled. "Oh yes you do, you know you want me." Ryou snickered "We're in an airplane remember?" He said pointing to the sleeping passengers. "So?" Bakura said leaning over and kissing his hikari.
