So I realized I haven't been doing my disclaimers :o sooo...
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh. If I did, it would've ended waaaaay differently :P
"Bakuraaaaaa?" Ryou sang as he opened the door to their apartment. He was in a good mood and he had a feeling everything was going to work out perfectly. This feeling grew once he spotted his yami in the kitchen looking back and forth between a package of uncooked steak and a pan Ryou had left on the stove earlier. He looked utterly confused. Perfect, Ryou thought as he walked over to him. "Hello Bakura," he said with a smile.
Looking up, he replied, "Ryou, just who I wanted to see." He picked up the steak and handed it to him. "Cook this."
Ryou sighed. "You could say please sometimes you know," he said as Bakura walked away. It didn't bother him though, not today. Cooking the steak would just make Ryou's plan that much easier.
Bakura was waiting impatiently at the dinner table when Ryou sat the steak down in front of him. He immediately dug in. Ryou watched as he prepared to devour the dish and smiled. This was going to be too easy. "So, I've got wonderful news," he started.
"Unless it involves more steak I'm not interested."
Ignoring this, Ryou went on. "You remember Mai don't you?"
"Unfortunately..." he grumbled.
Ryou rolled his eyes. "Well she won ten tickets to Hawaii, so we're all going on vacation!" he said enthusiastically.
"Good for you," he replied, sarcasm dripping from his voice.
Ryou chuckled and pulled out the two tickets Mai had given him. "And by all, I do mean ALL of us."
Bakura nearly choked when he looked up and saw not one, but two tickets in his hikari's hand. "And what makes you think I'll be attending?" he said with a glare, "I'd rather jump off a boat than—"
"I won't be here to cook for you."
Bakura's eyes widened for a split second before he caught himself. "I can cook for myself..." he said uncertainly.
"Oh really now? Then why didn't you cook the steak for yourself?" Ryou said, raising an eyebrow.
"I didn't want to."
"You didn't want to cook the steak?"
"I didn't want to do it myself, but I could if I wanted to."
"I'm sure you could." Ryou walked around to stand behind Bakura's chair. "But can you cook it the way you like it?" Bakura didn't respond. "Let's face it, Bakura. You don't even know how to work the stove. And even if you did you'd probably burn the poor piece of meat beyond recognition. Is that what you want, 'Kura? Burnt steak?"
Bakura stiffened involuntarily at the thought.
"Wouldn't it be much easier to come with us? Where professional chefs can cook your steaks to perfection?"
Bakura turned to face his hikari. Ryou could be very persuasive when he wanted to be. "I don't have to have steak," he said, trying to convince himself as well. "I can always get fast food while you're gone. You are not going to force me to go—"
"And where are you going to get the money for that?" Ryou interrupted.
He frowned. "You always leave me money when—"
"Not this time."
He scowled. Ryou could be absolutely lethal when he wanted something. Deep down inside, he couldn't help feeling impressed and a little proud. "So you're just going to let me starve."
"Yep."
Absolutely. Lethal. "Why do you want me to go anyway? I'm sure your friends don't want to see me."
"Yes, they do actually. They haven't seen you in a while—"
"And I'd like to keep it that way..." Bakura mumbled.
Ryou shook his head. "Plus, you need a vacation. This will give you a chance to relax."
"I could relax here if you'd just leave me alone."
"You need a change of scenery."
"Ryou, I'm not—"
"Starvation..." he sang.
Realizing he was dead serious and there wasn't really a choice, he growled. "Fine."
"What was that?"
"I said fine!" He yelled. Standing up, he grabbed Ryou's collar. "I'll go, but you'll regret this."
"No I won't, and neither will you. You'll have fun, you'll see," he replied, freeing himself from his yami's grip.
Bakura stormed off to his room. "Fun," he scoffed as he walked away.
Ryou smirked. "I would start packing if I were you!" he called after him, "We're leaving tomorrow at noon!"
Who knew Bakura's love for food would be his downfall xD Thanks to all who reviewed ^_^ And a special thanks to YamiBakura1988, who has reviewed all of my chapters so far(: By the way, that cookie is still up for grabs! No one has figured it out yet xD it will be revealed next chapter, and the cookie will be rewarded x) I know this chapter was really short, but don't worry I'll make up for it in the next one. Not much happens next chapter though, it's pretty much just filler :P soooo I'll probably submit chapter 6 as well if I finish editing it in time. REVIEW! And Happy New Year!
