(Normal POV)
Maric swirled the no longer steaming liquid a couple more times before opening his eyes. Leaning forward he downed half the cup in a mere two gulps, then again, the cup itself wasn't very large. He placed it down on one of the cork mats that lay on the coffee table that lay between the two sofas that occupied the front room. Noticing a movement to his left he turned his head to see his Yami lean forward depositing his own cup in vaguely the same manor Maric had.
"Didn't you like your own creation?" Maric asked mockingly raising an eyebrow.
"Well, not as much as something's," Malik replied grinning, Maric raised his other eyebrow before realising the hidden meaning to his Yami's remark. He smirked at it and decided to toy a little bit with his darker side, not that you could get much darker than Maric anyway.
"Oh and what may they be?" he asked, still, smirking as he leaning back into the sofa closing his eyes.
In less than five seconds he felt warm breath on his ear, he then heard his Yami whisper, "Things like you." Before Maric could open his eyes he felt his Yami claim his lips in a bruising kiss. Malik ran his tongue coaxingly along Maric's lower lip, begging for entrance. Maric submitted to him without hesitation parting his lips Malik's tongue, and not for the first time, evaded his mouth. Mapping it out Malik elicited a moan from the boy beside him.
Snaking his arm around his aibou's waist he pulled him on to his lap, shifting him so that Maric was effectively straddling him. They broke apart for air their faces still merely inches apart. "You taste like chocolate," Malik commented licking his lips making Maric grin.
"You like it better that way?" he quirked an eyebrow, still smirking.
"I like you any way," was Malik's husky reply as he once again claimed Maric's mouth with his own. He was surprised when he felt two slightly cold hands on his still bare chest. (Remember when Ryou came in he was shirtless?)
Pulling away Maric said, "We can't, not tonight," at this his Yami pouted and gave a futile attempt to use the puppy dog eyes, "Ryou's here, maybe another time." When Maric tried to get off Malik just grabbed his waist and held him down, Maric crossed his arms and scowled at his Yami's actions. "I meant what I said."
"Just one more," Maric couldn't help but submit to the fake tears that welled up in the violet orbs of his other half. Maric nodded making Malik grin. Pulling Maric down on top off him Malik gave Maric his third kiss since Ryou had arrived, who new what they had been doing before.
Standing up the two went to Maric's room, Malik climbed into Maric's bed and waited for Maric to come back from wherever he was. The door was pushed open and Maric came and lay down next to Malik. Curling up in the warm embrace of his Yami he fell peacefully asleep.
Neither stirred till the first rays of dawn filtered through the partly open curtains. Maric screwed up his eyes and clenched his teeth against the annoying burning ball of gas whose light refused to let him sleep. Sitting up he stretched his long arms and relaxed instantly when he felt two strong arms wrap around his torso.
"I need to get up Yami, and so do you, we have school," Maric said turning his head ninety degrees in order to see his Yami's head which was placed on his shoulder.
"That doesn't mean we have to get up right now," Malik complained sucking lightly on the back of Maric's well-tanned neck. Maric moaned in pleaser as Malik ran his fingers across his aibou's chest. "It seems you agree," Maric didn't say anything; instead he took slow gulps of air trying to regain his normal breathing pattern.
When he finally regained his ability to talk he said, "We can do this after school, not now." With that Maric swung his legs over the side of the bed, stood up and stretched again feeling his muscles tighten.
"Fine," Malik agreed huffily he to standing. Maric walked over to the chair where their Domino school uniforms were throwing Malik his set, which he caught, he grabbed his own and went to the bathroom to change.
When he was fully dressed he met his Yami outside his bedroom door, "How about you go start breakfast and I'll wake Ryou is he isn't awake already, damn this sun," Maric cursed. Malik merely nodded and headed off for the kitchen while Maric turned to go back up to corridor knocking politely on Ryou's door he called, "Hey Ryou, you up, we gotta get to school."
Just as he finished saying that the door opened to reveal a fully dressed 'Ryou' looking Ryou. He didn't look half as much like Bakura as he had last night. His eyes had lost their coldness and his hair was less spiked and messy. "Yes Maric, I'm ready, I was just coming and…thank you once again." Ryou said smiling at his friend who grinned back.
"S'okay, come on, Yami's making breakfast." With that the two walked silently through the apartment and into the front room just in time to see Malik come out of a door, which obviously led to the kitchen. He was carrying a tray that bore a plait with at least ten pieces of toast, some jam, and chocolate spread and other things like butter taking up the remaining space.
"Well, you two hungry?" he questioned setting it down, both boys nodded eagerly and the three sat down and within minutes the plate of toast was empty and the three boys where talking happily about random topics that just appeared in each others heads.
A few minutes afterwards all three boys, book bags and all were entering the glass doors of Domino High School. Wandering for a couple of minutes the two soon found their way to their homeroom, entering they were pretty much ignored as they sat down in a couple of seats at the back.
"Hey Cathy, look who it is," whispered a purple haired girl as she nudged her friend.
'Cathy' looked up and looked in the direction her friend was directing, at what she saw she gasped and clapped a hand to her gapping mouth. "Stone the crows it's him."
