It was 1 pm before I heard stumbling on the stairs. I had been doing some research about recently stolen artifacts and what they were supposedly used for in ancient times. Leaving a trail of unsolved crimes, It wasn't hard to find out what Bakura had been up to these last few weeks.

Ryou walked into the living room. He had taken a shower as well by the looks of his dripping white hair.

"Good morning." He said with a sweet smile.

"You mean good afternoon!" I said smiling back at him.

"Oh right! Is it that late already?" he asked, looking at the clock.

"Yup." I said.

Before Ryou could walk to the kitchen I said: "Sit down Ryou. I will make you some tea and I already made some sandwiches for when you guys would wake up. "

I pushed him to the couch and made him sit. He looked at me surprised before he smiled again.

"Thank you (y/n)."

"No problem Ryou."

You made some tea for the both of you and got a sandwich out of the fridge. Setting it on the table you sat down next to Ryou. As he started to eat, you couldn't stop yourself anymore from asking: "Ryou, now that you have your own body… Are you going to… Will you.. What are you going to do?"

Swallowing a bite he looked at me with his large brown eyes. "Well I uh.. I hadn't really decided yet. This was rather unexpected for me too you see."

"Oh yes, of course." I said. "I was just wondering, since you know, you don't agree with Bakura's plans and now that you are finally free.. I expected you to get out of here as soon as you could."

I looked at him serious. I had been thinking about that while the boys were sleeping. And I didn't want Ryou to leave, I really liked him, he was a welcome change from Bakura.

Ryou had already finished his sandwich. That boy sure can eat.. He looked back at me, his face now serious too "Too be honest, the thought had crossed my mind. But I'm not sure I want to leave you with them. I really like you (y/n)."

Hearing what he said I blushed a little before looking away. "Well I don't want you to go either." I said softly. When I looked up again he was smiling at me and I smiled back.

At that moment two pair of feet came stomping down the stairs. Without saying a word Bakura let himself fall on the couch next to me leaving Akefia looking around for where he could sit.

"Sit here Akefia" You said, quickly getting up and walking to the kitchen. You poured them both some tea and got all the sandwiches out of the fridge. Putting it down before them you sat on the other side of the table on the floor.

"Ah that's more like it (y/n)! If only you made us breakfast every day." Bakura said to me with his usual evil grin.

Glaring at him I decided not to respond to his comment.

As I sat there sipping my tea I looked at the three of them. Ryou on the left, Akefia in the middle and Bakura on the right. What a sight, three goodlooking boys on the couch. Their faces were so similar, yet there were subtle differences, the scar on Akefia's face the only not so subtle difference.

Ryou's face was the only one that looked clean. From the look and smell of Bakura and Akefia they hadn't bothered to take a shower. All of them were stuffing their faces, eating as if they hadn't seen a meal for days, even Ryou. Of course I had gotten used to their eating habbits, but after all this time I was still fascinated by it. Looking at Ryou who was eating with a look of happiness on his face, to Akefia, who was eating two sandwiches at the same time, to Bakura who was literally ripping the sandwich ferociously apart with his teeth, I subconsciously grinned.

Akefia noticed and grinned back at me. I blushed again. Why do I keep doing that.

After finishing lunch in silence, except for the noise of their chewing and tearing, I took the dishes to the kitchen.

"(y/n)! I'm still hungry!" Came Bakura's harsh voice.

"The food is right here in the kitchen, you can get it yourself!" I yelled back at him.

I heard him coming up behind me while I was neatly stacking the plates and cups. I felt his hands on my waist and his hot breath whispering in my ear: "I thought you finally understood that that's your job."

Almost dropping the cup I was holding I turned around to face him, turning slightly red in the face again. He was still holding my waist, our bodies too close for comfort, his face was one big grin which only made my face grow more red.

"And I thought I told you not to order me around!"

I pushed him away quickly and went back to the living room.

"Are you alright?" Ryou asked me seeing how red my face was.

"Yes, I'm fine, thank you Ryou." You smiled at him.

In all this time Bakura has never done anything like that. I mean, I know I must mean something to him, he did keep me around very closely after all. But if anything, he considers me his minion. A pawn.

I heard a crash and was pulled out of my thoughts. I looked up and found Akefia was making a mess of the living room. Studying everything and throwing everything that wasn't interesting enough on the floor. Of course everything is time was new to him.

"Akefia Stop!" I yelled at him when I saw him pull the playstation from it's compartment, with all the wires still attached. "Put that back!"

He looked at me with a sly grin and pulled it further out.

"No!" I yelled. I jumped on his arm, wrestling the playstation from his grip before gently putting it back where it belonged. He looked at me with an amused smile.

Bakura walked into the living room again, a plate filled with food. His eyes surveying the room stopping on me and Akefia sitting on the floor, me with a heated and angry look on my face. He laughed at us and sat down on the couch.

Ryou had just been standing there watching Akefia and me struggle, but didn't miss his chance to steal another sandwich from Bakura's plate as he passed him.

"You! Stop messing up the house! Just look, don't touch! And while you're at it, Bakura can show you the bathroom, so you can take a shower." I heard Bakura choke on his food

"And what is a shower might I ask?" Akefia asked innocently.

"It's a way to clean yourself." I said calmly with an innocent smile on my face. "Trust me you need one right now."

Looking at Bakura who looked like he was about to refuse I added: "Don't get started, you need one too." I saw the anger flash in his eyes. Mission accomplished.

Before they could say another word I took Ryou by the hand and led him to the kitchen. Ryou managed to conveniently snatch another piece of food from Bakura's plate before he was pulled away.

"Phieuw" I said with a sigh. Ryou just laughed at me and I started laughing too.
