Chapter 6: Home again
"Bye!"
"Bye Grandma!" Ryou called as he headed out the door. He wasn't quite sure where Bakura was but he wasn't too worried either. Ryou had to carry all of their luggage by himself.
As Ryou called bye one last time, the house door flung open and Bakura waddled out. The white haired boy felt like he was going to cry as he looked at his Yami. The once lean, mucular, and perfect body was now covered in a layer of fat. 'Oh well' he thought to himself 'Just have to make him work the tub of lard look off later.'
Ryou finished shoving all of the baggage into the trunk. He sat in the drivers seat, and was putting on his seatbelt when a funny smell wafted in.
Ryou gave a yelp of surprise when he turned around and saw the back seat of his car covered with food, and Bakura was trying to stack more. He hoped the containers didn't leak
Bakura gave everyone a few last big hugs, and climbed into the passenger side seat. "I am glad you are going to drive, Ryou. I am so tired I think I will take a nap." And that was all Bakura said before he reclined the seat and went completely silent.
Ryou gripped the steering wheel so hard, his knuckles turned white. He took a few deep breaths, and peeled out of the driveway.

"Uhh. Joey?"
"Yeah?"
"I thought we were all going to meet at Yugi's house when we came home."
"Well yeah, but I thought you would like to stop by the company. You haven't complained all week."
"Oh yeah... Kaiba Corp."
Seto dazed out while Joey looked at him worriedly.
"We are here." Joey announced climbing out of the car.
Seto didn't move. He just sat.
"Aren't you going to go inside?"
"No"
"Why not?"
No response. Joey sighed and ran his hand through his hair. He walked around to the passenger side, opened the door, and dragged the brunette out. He didn't stop till he had Seto inside his own office. The employees had given them strange looks, and Joey was sure the sight sent a few to the psychiatric ward. He, Joey Wheeler, had to drag the Seto, the over worked CEO, to the office.
Seto stood nervously once they reached the office.
"Well aren't you going to start checking on things?"
"I suppose." Seto started towards his desk. Once he reached he sat carefully in his chair and stared at the lap top.
Joey stood in amazement as Seto took a very deep breath and pushed the 'on' button. The small black contraption instantly lit up, and the deranged CEO screamed and pushed his chair back. "It's evil!!" He hollered.
Joey wasted no time. He pounced. "Where's my boyfriend you imposter?" He demanded.
~*~*~*~*~*
Many hours later at the Game Shop.
Ryou was sleeping on the couch.
Bakura was cooking in the kitchen.
Joey was sitting in a corner.
Seto was sitting in the opposite corner.
Yami was upstairs hiding.
Yugi was trying to figure out what happened.
"Okay Joey," Yugi said as soothingly as possible. "Why do you keep starting fights with Seto?"
"That's not Seto!"
Yugi sighed, this was getting no where. He walked to the opposite corner. "Okay Seto. Why are you afraid of computers?"
"What's a computer?"
"Don't kid around. Its scaring Joey."
"Well y'all and y'all's crazy contraptions scare me. When's that woman going to be done cooking that bird?"
"We told you a minute ago that we aren't going to cook the crow you shot. We are having something Bakura is going to make."
Seto huffed in an insulted way. "Fine."
The small boy sighed, glanced at the still sleeping Ryou, and walked into the kitchen. Yami had told him how Bakura had acted at the super market, but Yugi still couldn't believe.
"Hello!" The white haired yami greeted.
"Hi Bakura. Joey and Seto still aren't talking."
"Well, Ida says you must stand up to your problems." Yami entered the kitchen.
If Bakura was still the old Bakura, and Yugi hadn't already laughed his head off they would have both been rolling. And it wasn't because of what Yami said either. "Do you need any help?" The tri-colored hair spirit asked.
"Actually you can. And later we can show each other the recipes we collected."
"Great plan" Yami said as he started bustling around the kitchen.
Yugi sweat dropped and left. A conversation was going in the living room.
"What about the pond?" Seto looked close to tears. "Did that mean anything to you?"
Joey seemed torn. "Yes. Yes it did." He admitted seeming embarrassed.
"What about when I rescued your clothes? That was me! Didn't you appreciate that?"
Joey burst into tears the same time Seto did. "Yes!" He cried, and they flew into each others arms. "I love you!"
"I love you more!"
"SHUT IT!" Ryou threw pillows and knocked both boys to the ground. "Can't anyone get a little sleep around here?" The grouchy one demanded.
Seto and Joey nodded, wide-eyed and shocked, and quietly backed out of the room.
"That's better."
Ryou was about to go back to sleep when a voice called from the kitchen. "Dinner is ready!"
The crowd quickly settled themselves at the table and began shoving themselves full of the delicious food.
"Hey Yami? What's up with your hair?" Joey asked.
Yami blushed a color that matched his eyes. "Perm" he murmured.
Everyone was too polite to laugh so Seto and Joey just raised their eyebrows.
"BWAHAHAHAHA!!!" Well not everyone was too polite. "BWAHAHAHA!"
Bakura slapped the back of Ryou's head. "It isn't nice to laugh."
Ryou choked on his food, and stopped laughing. He growled, shot an evil glare at Bakura, and continued eating.
Yugi cleared his throat loudly. "The food is awesome. Thanks Bakura."
"Couldn't have done it without Yami. He made that delicious sauce."
"Thank you"
The two continued in polite conversation. Ryou just ate and glared at everyone. Seto and Joey talked about different things, but through it all they continued to make googly eyes at each other. Yugi had only one thought. 'I need sleep.'
THE END
Hehe. I kinda like this story. In fact I am already thinking up sequels for it! I like Ryou's attitude, and it will come into the story better in the sequel I am thinking up. Thanks to everyone who reviewed! I appreciate it! Please review!!
