Hawaii dreams- Chapter three.

Yugi and Malik avoided each other as much as possible over the next few days. Ishtar kept trying to make them kiss each other, but each time all he got was a punch in the arm by Malik. Five days later things didn't look good. Yugi was avoiding Malik, Malik was avoiding Yugi and Bakura was avoiding everyone.

"Don't worry about it too much Yugi." Ishtar said on day. "You'll have sex with Malik again soon!" Yugi had run crying from the room. Malik was getting fed up now. He had never lived with someone who wouldn't talk to him before, and he didn't like it.

Ok here goes…  Malik walked up to Yugi. He was sitting on the sofa looking depressed.

"Hi." Malik said. Yugi jumped slightly.

"Lightning strikes about 60,000 times per minute you know." Yugi said. "A jiffy is one 100th of a second you know."

"Where do you get this stuff?"

"Elephants are the only mammals that can't jump." Yugi was saying all this stuff in a flat empty voice like as if he was a robot.

"The Sun is 330,000 times larger than the Earth… A company in Taiwan makes plates out of wheat so you can eat your plate after you use it… there are about 50,000 earthquakes a year…"

"STOP!" Yugi jolted.

"What?"

"Its more than my brain can take!" Yugi smiled.

"Sorry, I read a lot, and when I'm sad or alone, I just recite stuff I've learned."

"POST!" Ishtar screeched. He ran in with a pile of letters. "Oh sorry, were you being intimate?"

"Fuck off Ishtar." Malik snapped. Ishtar poked his tongue out and threw Malik a pile of bills. "Oh my God! I'm never going to pay all this!"

"Here you go mini-pharaoh!" Ishtar said and threw a letter at Yugi. It hit him in the forehead and made it bleed.

"OW! Can't you be gentle!?"

"Of course… but I don't want to!" Yugi sighed and opened the letter. It was from Kaiba.

Hello Yugi,

                 Glad to see you're having fun! Only been there two days and already had sex

with someone else! I'm really proud of you! I hope you and this Malik guy are really happy

 together, and that you have fun together. I thought it would interest you

to know that nothing has been done about Tea's death. The police told me that no one really cares

that she is gone, so they didn't bother investigating her death. Rumour has it that someone took her

body and burned it on a stake like they used to do with witches.

Write back if you ever feel like it because I could do with a laugh.

P.S please find enclosed a check for three million pounds, made out to Yugi mouto.

This is for giving me a laugh.

                                          Seto Kaiba.

Yugi held out the check. He was about to run around the house screaming loudly when he heard a huge sob. It was Malik.

"What's wrong?" asked Yugi.

"At this rate, I'm going to loose the house. Ishtar's running up thousand pound bills every month, and I don't have that kind of money. Yugi felt relieved- he thought it was something severely wrong. He walked up to where Malik was, and then went behind him. He then shoved the check in Malik's face. Malik pushed it away and read it.

"BLOODY HELL!" he shot up and turned round. "I thought you said Kaiba hates you!" Yugi shrugged and held out the letter.

Malik read it. "Oh. Aren't you upset about what he said?"

"Aww come on! I'd put up with twice as much to get my hands on this amount of money! You're not going to loose the house!"

"But it's your money."

"I live with you don't I?" Malik started jumping up and down.

"We're rich! We're rich! We're rich! We're rich!" Yugi grinned. A knock at the door came. Yugi went to answer it while Malik was still jumping up and down yelling.

"Oh hi Bakura." Yugi said uncertainly.

"Hello. Look, were you totally drunk when you were… with… Malik?" 

"YES! I was totally out of it!"

"Oh… well I suppose I was a bit too rapid to blame you, and I guess that if you were totally under the influence of alcohol, then me blaming you for everything would be hedonistic."

"You got that from Yami didn't you?" Yugi said.

"Every word." Bakura answered. "Um, buy the way, why is Ishtar screeching like a banshee?"

"That's not Ishtar, it's Malik. I just got a check for three million quid, and it's the answer to his dreams." Bakura started to get jealous again.

"But it's your money."

"I know, but if I don't help him, he's going to loose the house!"

"SO!" Yugi thought it was time to end this discussion.

"Bye Bakura, I'll see you another day." And Yugi slammed the door in his face. Yugi wanted bakura back, but he also wanted to help Malik, because, even after all that had happened, Malik was still his friend. Ishtar poked his head round the door.

"O.k, one: who was that. And two: Why is Malik jumping around like an idiot?"

"One: Bakura and two: because I just got a check for three million quid." Ishtar weighed these two things to see which was more exiting. Money.

"I love you!" Ishtar said. He then latched on to Yugi and wouldn't let go. Yugi sighed and walked into the living room. 

"Malik, help." He said. Malik was still jumping around screaming. He stopped and turned round.

"Ishtar, get off him."

"No. I love him, so he's going to give me ALL his money!"

"No I'm not!" Yugi snapped. Yami suddenly appeared in a puff of smoke beside Yugi. Yugi shot ten feet into the air. Yami looked down and saw Ishtar still latched onto Yugi.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!" he yelled at Ishtar.

"He wants my money." Yugi stated. Yami tore him off Yugi and threw him out of the room.

"Ahem… Yugi, are you o.k?"

"I don't know why people keep asking me that, but if they don't stop it, I'll kill." Yugi said agitated.      

"Sorry." Yugi sighed.

"Look, what do you what?"

"Well, don't kill me, but Bakura came back in a real mood, so I was wondering what you said to him." Yugi stared at him. Yami became quite nervous. Malik started trying to edge towards the door, but Yami blocked it.

"Malik, Bakura said that you're using Yugi for some money he has." Yugi rolled his eyes.

"Yami, Malik's going to loose the house if I don't help him."

"Oh… Why?"

"Mind your own business!" Ishtar said, poking his head through the door.

At, um, whoever's house it is now:

Ryou sat by Bakura on the settee. They were both sulking.

"I hate my life." Bakura said. Ryou lifted his head slightly.

"Why?"

"Yugi's with Malik, he's got three million quid, and he's giving it to him."

"Giving it to him? Who would give away three million quid?"

"Yugi. Anyway, why are you miserable?"

"I love Yugi and Malik, and they both don't want anything to do with me."

"Stay away from Yugi."

"What, like Malik is?" Ryou snapped.

Back at Malik's:

"So your staying here until when?" Yami asked.

"Dunno."

"What should I tell Bakura?"

"Dunno."

"Do you know anything?"

"Dunno."

"Are you listening to me?"

"Dunno."

"Yugi!" Malik had told Yami about Ishtar's over spending while Yugi had just been sitting there in his own world reciting stuff to himself. He jumped slightly.

"Dogs and cats consume over 11 billion dollars of food a year." He started. "Q is the only letter in the alphabet that doesn't appear in any of the United States… smelling bananas and green grapes makes you loose weight…"

"Here we go again." Malik said.

Out on the street:

Ishtar had long left the house. He was totally bored, so he thought it would be good to see how long it took Malik to notice he was gone. He walked around the beach for a while before settling himself on a huge rock over looking the sea. The rain'll be coming soon he thought. (Thanx to Celtic guardian gurl for telling me that.) He sat there for a while more before he decided to go and see Bakura. So he trundled over to the house, trying not to be seen as he went past the window of his house. He knocked on the door before entering. Ryou looked up from the sofa.

"Hi Malik!" he said happily.

"That's Ishtar genius." Bakura snapped and Ryou slumped back down again, all excitement gone.

"Hi." Ishtar came in and sat down.

"You know, normally people wait outside the front door for an answer, not come barging in." Bakura said, inching towards Ryou, away from Ishtar.

"Yes, but I'm not normal."

"You've changed a lot. You never used to be insane. Well not much anyway."

"Yup. But living with Malik is enough to drive anyone insane. Oh by the way, tomorrow is drinking night."

"What?"

"Tomorrow is the night when Malik and I go out to get smashed. We took Yugi, Ryou and Yami along with us last time, and I won the drinking contest with the pharaoh!"

"Uh huh. So why are you telling me this? Do you just want me to be even more depressed?"

"No! I'm inviting you along! It'll be the last drinking night before the rain comes, so why don't we all go?"

Back at Malik's:

"Well if your staying, I'll tell Bakura then."

"Yup."  

"Bye then."

"Yup."

"Are you an idiot?"

"Yup."

Yami sighed and left. Malik waited a while before speaking up.

"Uh, Yugi?"

"Hi."

"Are you coming drinking with me and Ishtar tomorrow?" Yugi looked up, genuine astonishment on his face. "Of course if you don't want to, I'll totally understand, because you have a really good reason not for going." He said quickly.

" 'Course I'm coming!" Yugi said. Malik looked surprised. "I love getting plastered!" he smiled. "Maybe this time I'll win!"

Next night:

Yugi, Ishtar and Malik proceeded to the disco alone. Bakura had said no to Ishtar's offer, but was going on his own to spy on them. Ryou however ran up to them practically begging to join them. Amateur. Bakura thought.

Once inside the disco place, Malik and Yugi sat down, while Ishtar and Ryou got the vodka and gin, this time enough for four. Bakura sat down on a table in the corner so that they couldn't see him. Ishtar came back carrying the drinks, and Ryou followed looking miserable.

"What's the matter?"

"He made me pay for EVERYTHING!" Yugi smiled.

Yugi took a glass of vodka and so did Ishtar, Ryou and Malik.

"O.k. last one to pass out wins!" Malik shouted over the noise. They all downed what was in their glasses. Once again, Ryou passed out immediately.

"We really shouldn't bring him here." Yugi said. After the second tray of vodka, only Malik and Yugi were left. They were both swaying slightly, and were both smiling at nothing.

"I can't believe I out-drunked ishlatrrrr…" Malik slurred.

"Gin now. Talk later. After I. Win yes." Yugi said. Over drinking had the opposite effect on him. He was totally hyper and could only say two words at a time. They both downed the gin too.

"Well last. Time we. Never got. This far. Did we?"

"Noooooo."

"Want to. Go home. Now then?"

"Noooooo." 

"Get more. Gin then?"

"Yessssssssss." Yugi stood up and fainted.

Bakura was still watching from where he was. He was surprised to see how much Yugi could drink, and was about to go and help Yugi home when Malik started poking him.

"Heyyy. Whr's th gin?" Yugi got up and stumbled. He fell on top of Malik and they both blacked out. What do I do now? Thought Bakura, looking over at them. At last he decided that it was best to leave them there because it was obvious they weren't going to move. He went home feeling totally happy and a little bit pissed.

Next morning:

Yugi woke up with a groan. Oh god. He had nothing on again. Malik was lying on top of him with a contented look on his face. Yugi shook him awake. Malik's eyes fluttered open and he stared at Yugi.

"SORRY!" Malik started. "Sorry, sorry, sorry…"

"Shut up." Yugi said. Malik looked puzzled. He got off Yugi and searched for his clothes without another word to him. Yugi just smiled as Malik hurried round tying to find his clothes. He looked back at Yugi to see he hadn't moved.

"What's the matter?" Yugi realised he was gazing at Malik with a look of ecstasy on his face. He quickly changed his expression to blank.

"Oh, nothing." Yugi then got up and looked around too. He found that his shirt was once again ripped and this time, so were his trousers. "You're really impatient when your drunk aren't you?" Malik blushed. Yugi had to look away because he had this strange urge to kiss him. No. He told himself. I love Bakura… don't I?

A downpour started as they were walking home. Yugi unconsciously cuddled up to Malik. This made Malik blush incredibly. Yugi noticed this and smiled. Malik slipped a trembling hand around Yugi, not knowing how he would take it. Yugi just snuggled closer to him and whispered.

"This is better than an umbrella."

Bakura saw them walking home. Shit. He thought. He came flying out of the door and headed straight for them.

"I don't think I can take this right now." Yugi said. Malik nodded and they ran for it straight to the door of the house. They shut the door just in time to hear Bakura run full force into it.

"Open this door right now!" Bakura yelled. Yugi just sighed and sat down. Malik followed suit.

"Well, one thing's for sure." Yugi said. "Ishtar and Bakura can go out with each other again." Malik smiled and they cuddled up on the sofa.

(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)

Awwwwww! What a soppy ending! Oh well.        Review please! Bye bye!
