God the Grand (e): And on to chapter ten finally!
Gandalf: Once again, sorry it took so darn long! Inspiration still isn't dancing around in our heads…
God: Unfortunately, he's right… anyways though, we still don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, but enjoy the chapter anyways!
Bakura made a warrior cry as he chased Yami around the apartment.
"Get your ass back here!"
"No way in hell!"
"You fucking spy!"
"Never!"
"Get back you mole!"
"ACK!" Yami cries as he's jumped by me, landing hard on the floor.
"Get off!" Yami bellows. Bakura grinned.
"Not until you admit you where spying!"
"Oh… is that really all I have to do?" Yami asks, brushing some bangs out of his face. "Ok, I was spying." He adds simply, pushing me off him easily.
"You know, I was supposed to get to pulverize you before you admitted." I mutter, crossing my arms. Yami smiles.
"But the truth sets you free Bakura my dear friend! So basically, you and Malik are trying to break up Ryou and Marik so you can each have them?" Yami asks nonchalantly.
"How'd you know?" I ask, furrowing an eyebrow. He shrugs.
"It's simple really. You have been all over Ryou since the day you met him, which was so not when you told Marik you did by the way. Malik has been all over Marik too. Simple as that!" He exclaims. Maybe I should give my pointy haired roommate more credit…
"Oh. You're not going to tell Marik our plans though are you?" I ask, a bit worried. After all, I'll be dead as a doornail if Marik finds out… are doornails really even dead? I scratch my head.
"Nope. Not a word in fact. I think I may be with you on this Bakura. You so belong with Ryou. Malik is way too much fun for you to handle. You're way too boring for him… And Ryou is the same way." Obviously, he doesn't know Ryou's nighttime job…
"What about Marik though?" I ask.
"Pfft. You know Marik as well as I do. He'll be fine. Malik and him get along great, though I'm not truly sure he even knows Malik is flirting… But don't worry! He'll get it soon! He's just hung up on Ryou right now, once he sees and truly sees how you two are together, he'll get why Ryou likes you better… Then he'll see why Malik is good for him." He gives me a reassuring smile, and places a hand on my shoulder.
"Trust me. Things will go great. You know Bakura; you're so lucky I like you better." He says quietly, hopping to his feet, and walking to his room. Ryou though… he still doesn't know how I feel…
I yawn. There's always tomorrow…
I wake up to the smell of sausage… some one's cooking. I hop out of my bed, rolling out from under the faded blue comforter, struggling to stand up. A few voices can be heard from in the kitchen, one a little unfamiliar.
I rub my eyes, and open up my door, treading to the kitchen. There Malik, Marik, Seto, and Yami are engaged in conversation.
"YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!" …Yep, same old Seto.
"I have things to do tonight Seto! I CANNOT babysit! I repeat, CANNOT!" Yami hollers, glaring fiery-eyed at the tall brunette. The taller snorts and crosses his arms.
"Do I need to remind you who the better looking of us is? And the smarter? HUH BITCH, TELL MEH!" Yami blinks and smacks his head.
"I can't ok? I promised Yugi to take him out for our anniversary!" Yami cries in defense. Seto smirks.
"Oh, is that what it is? Why didn't you say so Yami? That way I could've said 'NO' EARLIER YOU LITTLE TRAITOR!" Seto hollers. He used to be tolerable, and then Noa moved in with him.
"But Noa wasn't even in our deal! Why did he have to pick this week to come back from military school?" Yami whines, stamping a foot. Seto rolls his eyes.
"Do I need remind you of why you have to watch Mokuba in the first place? I brought the pictures, in case Yugi might be interested…"
"NO! NO! Seto I'm begging you, please don't! Can't you just find someone else, just this once?" Yami mewls out, begging on his knees, tugging on Seto's pant leg.
"Familiar position Yami." Seto teases, smirking. Yami smacks the CEO's leg.
"Shut up before my precious hears!" He growls out. Marik and Malik watch, laughing.
"Are, are you trying to find someone to watch Mokuba?" A sweet voice rings. Everyone stops what they're doing and turns their head to Ryou. Seto blinks.
"Oh crackers! Who the fuck are you?" Seto asks, furrowing an eyebrow. Ryou sweatdrops.
"I, I'm Ryou." He states shyly, smiling a little.
"That's all mashed potatoes and gravy, but why the hell are you here?" Seto retorts.
"He's my baby, that's why!" Marik states excitedly, running over to Ryou and snaking an arm around his waist. Ryou nods, looking a little nervous as I stare at the two.
"Eh, right. Anyways, why did you want to know?" Seto asks him, tapping an expensive boot.
"Oh, because I was going to offer to watch him for you! I love Mokuba, he's a sweetheart!" Ryou muses, beaming.
"You, you do know you'll be watching Noa too, right?" Seto asks.
"Ryou hon, don't do it! Watching Noa is like watching five kids with A.D.H.D. it's terrible. It took Yami, Bakura, Yugi, and I just to settle the little shit down! He's not like normal twelve year olds, trust me!" Marik exclaims. He's right… Noa is perhaps the worst child in the world…
"Aw, guys I don't think you're giving him fair judgment! He's probably just having a little trouble coping with something. Growing up isn't easy you know?" Ryou persuades. We all blink.
"Well that's a load of bullshit." Yami chortles.
"Well come on milk head, are you going to watch them or not?" Seto questions harshly.
"Yes, I'll do it!" Ryou says cheerfully, smiling.
"Great. I'll bring um by here in about an hour." Seto says, picking up his brief case. Yami unlatches himself from Seto and tackles Ryou.
"Thank you soooooooooo much Ryou! You've saved me, angel of the night!" Yami cries. Ryou blushes.
"Yo-you're welcome… er, could you let me go though?" Ryou asks. Yami blinks and giggles nervously, stepping off him. Ryou gets up and brushes himself up.
"Ok, that's fine. I'll see you then." Ryou proclaims, smiling. Seto nods, walking up to Ryou and ahems.
"And if you ever need a real man, you know where to find me." Seto said with a wink. Marik growled, others sweatdropped.
"Uh, Seto… you're dating Shizuka…" I trail off. He blinks.
"Well maybe I want a side dish!" He hollers, annoyed. Ryou flushes.
"Eh, that's ok… I think I'm happy with mine." Ryou replies. Seto shrugs.
"Whatever you say." He says, walking out the door, slamming it. Ugh, what a drama queen…
"So sweetie, how come you didn't wake me up last night?" Malik's voice chimes out of nowhere. I blink.
"Uh, sorry?" I answer mutely. He smiles and wraps his arms around me suddenly.
"You should be!" He chirps, giggling. He kisses my cheek. Ryou stares at us from Marik's arms, glares more likely. I feel like I should do something only I don't know what. Think Bakura, think! I smile slightly and kiss Marik softly on the lips. Ryou rolls his eyes… he looks furious? He pulls out of Marik's arms and stomps off. Marik blinks.
"Did I do something wrong?" He asks. Malik looks at me worriedly.
"You kissed him didn't you?" He whispers in my ear. I nod. He slaps me.
"Dumb ass! Ugh!" He hisses. I blink.
"You told me to!" Malik rolls his eyes and let's go. Ok, I really don't get it.
"Eh… one sec." I note and run after Ryou. Marik blinks.
"What the hell is going on?" I hear him hiss to Malik.
I run into the bathroom and Ryou is just staring into the mirror.
"Ry, Ryou?" I start. He looks over to me.
"Oh, uh… hi Bakura." He says calmly peering to me.
"What, what's wrong?" I ask. He smiles and shakes his head.
"Nothing. I just see something I didn't before." He adds quietly.
"Oh…" I trail off.
"We, we should probably just get back to the living room." He says quietly, changing the subject. I nod.
"Ryou wait… about last night, I-" He shushes me by placing a hand over my mouth.
"No, Bakura… let me… I was just in a difficult time and I didn't know what to do… I'm sorry, we should've never… I forgot how you felt about Malik, and I think it helped me realize how much I really do care for Marik." I blinked. Love Malik? Hell no! Why does my life suck so much? He giggles and takes my hand.
"We should probably go back out now. Thanks, by the way." He adds, peering to me. I nod.
"You're welcome…" I trail off.
He walks back out to Marik and Malik, me trailing behind.
"So Bakura, are you going to help me with Mokuba?" He asks, feigning a cheerful smile. Marik shakes his head.
"Hell no… I cannot stand Noa! Ugh!" He grimaces. Ryou sighs and looks down.
"Ry, I'll help you." I offer.
"Yes, that's a great idea Bakura! Besides, Marik and I wanted to go to this weird Egyptian store!" Malik chimed, grinning. Ryou nodded.
"I, I guess that'd be ok." He said softly, looking up to Marik.
"Yes… just… try to make sure they don't get to my autographed baseballs, ok?" Marik asks. I nod.
"Sure buddy, whatever you want." I grunt out. He nods.
"Welp, we're off then!" Malik exclaims, taking Marik's hand and leading him out the door. Ryou smiles and waves.
"Bye Marik!" He chirps.
"So, what should we do today Bakura? WE can't just keep the kids inside after all!" Ryou says. I shrug.
"The zoo usually keeps kids busy doesn't it?" He nods.
"Good idea Bakura, all kids love the zoo!" He muses, giving me a smile.
"Yes, I'm sure the million-aire children will love a trip to the zoo, when in actuality Seto could buy it for them." I retort.
"Aw, don't say it like that! Mokuba is a really nice kid, and you should really give him more credit!"
"…But what about Noa?"
