(Chapter Two: Dishes)

Laria glared at Bakura, who was glaring back at her. This went on for about three minutes until Laria walked over to the couch and sat down. She grabbed the remote and turned on the TV.

"Oh no you don't" Bakura said getting up off the floor. "You can't just come over to my house and lay around."

"This isn't your house" Laria said with out looking at him. "It's Ryou's"

"I'm the stronger half, so it's my house"

"You may seem stronger, but Ryou IS the smarter half"

Bakura growled, the hikari, who was now grinning at him, was getting on his nerves.

"Look, I don't care! You're just not going to sit there" Bakura said walking towards the kitchen, right by the couch. "You're going to help with the dishes."

"No" Laria said simply crossing her arms over her chest.

"Do you want me to beat you?" Bakura warned stopping right in front of her.

"You wouldn't" Laria said quietly.

"Really?" Bakura grabbed Laria's upper-arm with all his strength and pulled her off the couch. Laria cried out in pain as she was pushed forcefully to the ground and was pinned down by the Tomb Robber. Laria looked up at the spirit, trying to hide her fear.

"Don't tempt me Laria" Bakura whispered in the hikaris ear "I just might have to... and I'd enjoy it more then anything..."

Laria's eyes went wide as a chill ran down her spin. She wanted nothing more then to get away from the sadistic Tomb Robber, but in the position she was in she didn't dare move.

"B-Bakura" Laria's voice fluttered "please... d-don't"

Bakura grinned viciously down at the hikari. Laria gulped and stared into Bakura's cold eyes.

"Then you better start listening to me"

Laria gave a silent sigh of relive as Bakura got up.

"Fine..." Laria said through her teeth as she got up off the ground. She glared at Bakura as he pushed her into the kitchen "so what do you want me to do?"

"You're going to help me wash the dishes" Bakura said as he turned on the water and waited for it to get warm.

"Help... you?" Laria blinked "you mean you're actually going to do something."

"You're pushing it Girl" the spirit said as he added dish soap to his water.

"So..."

"Well then" Bakura moved the faucet to the other part of the sink. "If Ryou asks why he has to be treated so badly, you can tell him it's all your fault."

Laria fell silent and she stared at the water as the sink filled. She didn't want to believe the Tomb Robber, but deep down she knew it was true. Bakura chuckled to himself; he knew just what to say to make the hikari bite her tongue. Actually he could do that with any hikari.

--------------------------------------------------------

For about a half an hour Bakura and Laria washed the dishes in silence. The Yami had nothing to say to the hikari and the hikari didn't want to say anything in fear that she'd anger the Tomb Robber more, increasing her koibito's pain. Though she wondered if he could get any madder, seeing that his dagger had mysteriously disappeared and Laria had been pushing his buttons since she had arrived.

Laria scowled slightly as Bakura started throwing silverware into Laria's water, splashing small amounts of water on her. She reached her hand in the warm water and grabbed the silverware as Bakura tossed it in. she was glad the water had cooled down. Her skin was sensitive so hot water felt almost like boiling to her.

She had three knifes and a fork in her hand when Bakura tossed a spoon in to the water. Laria 'eeped' slightly and quickly pulled her hand out of the water. Bakura looked at her and raised an eyebrow. Laria was glaring at the spoon in the sink as she placed the rest of the silverware on the towel to dry.

"Baka," Bakura said "that's only a spoon..."

"I don't like spoons" Laria said gathering more silverware from the water "they scare me"

Now everyone knows that a spoon is a silly thing to be scared of, but Laria had a good reason, or at least it was good for her. She was naturally strange and liked sharp pointy objects, so she had no problem with knifes, for the most part. She also had some mental issues, which she blames on her Yami, and has an obsession with forks. So she had cursed spoons as her... enemy.

"There not going to hurt you" Bakura rolled his eyes "if you want something to fear I'll go get my little friend."

"Oh your dagger" Laria smiled "you found it"

"No, but I've looked everywhere and I haven't... wait..." Bakura narrowed his eyes at the hikari "how did you know it was missing"

Laria didn't say anything, just grinned evilly and went back to gathering silverware from the sink.

"Damnit you stole my dagger didn't you!?"

"I did"

"Where the hell is it!?

"I'll never tell" Laria said giggling slightly.

Bakura went to grab Laria but she had a spatula and used it to splash the dish water into the spirit's face. Bakura blinked for a few seconds and Laria bolted she ran around the counter and out though the living room. Bakura quickly regained his senses and ran after the hikari.

Around the middle of the living room Bakura caught up and tackled Laria to the ground. The hikari screamed as the Yami flipped her over on her back. He had her wrists pinned down on the ground and he was sitting on top of her. Bakura increased his grip on Laria's wrists, holding them as tight as he could.

"Bakura!" Laria screamed as she tried to get the spirit off of her. She wasn't having much success seeing that her wrists were being held in a death grip.

"I don't need that dagger to get the blood I want" the spirit said. He leaned and bit down roughly right where her neck and shoulder blade met. He licked up some of the blood that came from the bite.

"Bakura!" the body underneath him... moaned. Bakura sat up.

"Yani?"

"I never miss out on a chance to get bit by you" Yani said grinning sadistically moving her head to the side exposing more skin to her koi. "Do it again"
