It couldn't believe it: it was one o'clock already. Hours had passed since breakfast and all Yuugi could find to eat was a bruised apple that he had probably been carrying around with him for weeks. He was too hungry to be particularly fussy though.
Honda came to sit beside him, not looking especially happy.
"What's wrong?" Yuugi asked, turning the apple over and over in his fingers, looking to see if there were any spots that weren't damaged.
"You know I'm not one for dramatics, but, about you and Anzu..."
Yuugi grinned. "You're here to do that 'older big brother' speech thing aren't you?"
"... Now that you mention it..."
"I wouldn't ever hurt her," Yuugi said, eyes firmly fixed on the apple.
"It's not that. We didn't ever think you would."
"We?"
"Yeah, Jounouchi and I. This is a team effort."
"Then where's Jounouchi?"
"Distracting Anzu by eating more cream crackers than anyone has ever eaten in the history of the universe."
"Bet she's thrilled."
"You'd be surprised," Honda said. "Anyway, anyway, the point is this: don't be surprised if things change between you two. Being her boyfriend is different from being her friend."
Yuugi threw his apple in the air, "Yeah I know, that's why it took me so long to ask her out in the first place."
Honda caught it. "We didn't think you were stupid, you know, we just wanted to make sure that you weren't headed into this relationship blind."
"I'm not."
"Good," Honda said, handing back the apple.
"Were you supposed to be my 'big brother' or Anzu's then, in this non- dramatic conversation?"
"Both. I want this to work out for both of you."
"Thanks Honda."
"No problem."
