For only a short moment were all eyes on the door by which the albino yami had exited before they resumed their talk about anything and everything. Marik and Bakura both reclaimed their rightful places in the circle and took a seat once more. The blonde Egyptian was shaking slightly, still a bit worked up over the encounter with the psychotic tomb robber.
Tea had pulled a notebook out from one of the drawers in Yugi's desk and opened it to a blank page, setting it down on the floor in front of her, a pen in hand, "So, I was thinking that maybe we could plan our Summer vacation out right now!" The others' faces brightened up and Tea had the spotlight. "You see, I was looking up all sorts of vacation spots and a Summer home caught my eye. It's on the Island of Oahu, a part of Hawaii, and it's secluded plus it's right on the beach!" Her eyes sparkled as she remembered the many images that she had seen.
All of the others were looking at one another, the same twinkles in their eyes, excitement filling their young hearts and minds. Joey jumped to his feet yet again, "Yeah baby! Dat's what I'm talkin' 'bout!" He thrust a fist into the air and grinned from ear to ear.
Yugi put his finger to his temple in thought, "That sounds awesome Tea, but how much is this getaway going to cost us?" Grins and smiles turned to frowns and lip-biting.
"Well," Tea began, "Since it's on a beach and because it's so big, the website said that this Summer home would be about 1,500 dollars per night." The whole group fell over and did the trademark anime sweat-drop.
"How are we eva gonna get dat much money?!?!" Joey whined, "Even if we split it up, we'd each have to pay. . . um. . . 1500 divided by. . . well let's see, the yami's don't have money so. . ."
"250 dollars per person per night, Wheeler." The blonde boy jumped at the sudden voice, as did the others, and turned to the doorway from which that all-too-familiar, smug voice came. It was Seto Kaiba with his brother Mokuba by his side, "Which I'm guessing," The teen continued, "Is why the female of your group was so eager to get Mokuba and I to go." He quickly shot a glare over at Tea, who bit her lip in guilt.
Mokuba's face lit up, "This vacation sounds awesome! I can't wait to go; and since I'm going, Seto has to go too! He has to watch out for me, you know?" The younger boy latched himself onto his brother's arm, nuzzling it and smiling.
The elder Kaiba looked down at him with wide eyes, "You better not be wiping your nose on my shirt."
Bakura jumped to his feet, "Well then, I believe that Tea should make the arrangements at the Summer home and the rest of us should get to planning and packing! What do you lot think?" He tilted his head in a thoughtful manner, tinting Tristan and Marik a light shade of pink. All that the albino bishounen got in reply were smiles and nodding heads, but it was enough for him. He bounced a little bit and clasped his hands in front of his chest while closing his eyes and giggling happily.

Out in the hallway, Yami Bakura listened intently at their plans. He had seen Seto and Mokuba Kaiba come down the hallway and had showed them acknowledgment by giving the taller boy a simple nod. In turn, Seto arched a thin, brown eyebrow and snorted, going into Yugi Muto's bedroom.
After moments of listening to the CEO's grand entrance, the others began planning and his Bakura had spoken up. Wait. Did he just say HIS Bakura? He shook his head lightly to himself. No, he had that chance but through it away. Bakura was his light, he was weak and he was innocent. A yami should never love his light. In a sense, it was like a parent falling in love with their child.
Seeing as it was a long while ago that he had exited the room in fury, he believed that returning to the group would be alright. As though nothing had happened, the tomb robber casually strode into the room, shoving Marik aside and standing beside his adorable hikari.
No one noticed the thief return except for Tristan, Marik, and Bakura; everyone else was too busy watching Tea book the vacation home on the computer. Seto Kaiba and Yami Yugi were seated on little Yugi's bed, not sharing any interest in the upcoming vacation. Joey was watching the computer monitor, but his thoughts were on the young CEO that sat not too far behind him.
Tristan and Marik had now joined the others in choosing which shops they would visit and which activities the group would take part in while on their little getaway. Bakura, who stood behind the group, began to sit on the bed. . . instead, he landed in the lap of everyone's favorite CEO. Upon hearing an irritated grunt from the laps owner, a bright red color spread across his pale cheeks and he slid off of Seto Kaiba and onto the bed.
The whole time, the Pharaoh was slightly shaking, clenching his fists and grinding his teeth to keep from shoving Bakura to the floor and off of his crush. To his relief, the hikari slid off on his own and Seto showed no signs of embarrassment or interest whatsoever.
Yami Bakura cringed as his light plopped into the others' lap. Sure it was an accident, but just the thought of him being that close to someone else made his blood boil.
Seto raised an eyebrow as he looked down at the bed. For some reason unknown to the CEO, it was vibrating. He wondered to himself if this was Yugi's way of having fun. His face showed all signs of disgust as he shook the thought from his head. Without really thinking, he turned to glance at Yami, who was obviously the cause of these tremors. The Pharaoh had angry eyes fixated on little Bakura's back. If looks could kill, Bakura would be a bloody puddle on the floor, "What's your problem?"
Yami looked a bit startled as his gaze softened and his eyes met azure. The Priest was talking to him. Yami's eyes glazed over at his beauty, "Hm?"
The CEO simply rolled his eyes and looked over to Mokuba, who was excitedly watching the schedule being typed up on Yugi's computer. Seto mused over how the yami had looked at him. It was a look that a hungry man might give a turkey dinner. He visibly shivered at the thought, cause a few glances to come his way. He snuck a peek at the Pharaoh. 'What the hell?' He said in his mind, 'he's still looking at me with that. . . hungry look.'
"THERE!!!"
Seto, Yami, and Yami Bakura all jumped up, the two yami's falling to the floor. Tea had announced, quite loudly, the completion of their vacation schedule. Seto frowned. He certainly wasn't looking forward to this.
Yami Bakura was also unhappy with the situation. During the entire process, Tristan and Marik had been gazing at his hikari, licking their lips like he was some sort of dessert! The Tomb Robber stalked over and plopped himself next to his light. Now he was uncomfortably wedged between Seto Kaiba and Bakura Ryou. . . joy.
Seto slightly scrunched his nose as he moved over to make room. Now he was right up against Yami, who now blushed a dark scarlet, a mischievous grin coming across his lips.
Yugi came to the center of the room, Joey and Tristan yelling for everyone to shut up and give the little runt their full attention, "Alright," He began, "It has been decided that we're going to be gone for 20 days. That's about. . ."
"One day short of three weeks." Seto calculated for him.
"Yeah!" Yugi chimed, smiling, "Which is gonna cost us about. . ." He scrunched his face, trying to beat Seto Kaiba to the answer.
"30,000 dollars." The CEO announced, his eyes widening some at the price, "I'm not going to be paying for the whole thing. You little runts are paying at least five grand." He folded his arms as if to say that this deal were non-negotiable. Typical business man.
Yugi only smiled, "Yes Kaiba, I suppose that it's only fair for us to pay SOME of the money. Anyways, there's going to be ten people coming and five rooms, so we need to pick roommates! Everybody buddy up!"
Immediately, Tristan and Marik bolted for a chance to be Bakura's partner. Unfortunately for them, Yami Bakura had already latched onto the bishounen's arm and his eyes dared the other two teens to try and take him. Frowning, Tristan turned to Yugi and stood beside him.
Seto held Mokuba in his lap and Tea was arguing that Mokuba should be her roommate on account of the fact that she was the only female and she wouldn't be sleeping with any of the older boys. What the girl said was reasonable, but Seto shook his head, refusing to room with any of the other males.
Yami saw this as his opportunity, "Kaiba, perhaps you should let Mokuba stay with Tea." A playful grin snuck onto his lips, "Don't worry, none of us bite." He chuckled and Yami Bakura looked at him, clearing his throat. "Well," Yami began again, "None of us bite except for the Tomb Robber." The thief smiled proudly and proceeded to wrap an arm around his lights waste, startling him slightly.
The former Priest sighed, releasing Mokuba and looking around to see who was left over. Marik and Joey looked at him; Marik looked disappointed and the mutt looked strangely hopeful. Seto sighed again and began to pick his roommate, "Let's see. . . a fag, a dog, or a rival." Marik growled angrily but Joey didn't seem to be phased. The elder Kaiba looked over at the Game King who gave him a look that said 'I don't really give a damn, just pick already.' Little did he know that this was a mask to fool him, "I guess I'll room with him." He declared, pointing to the Pharaoh with his thumb.
Joey's expression melted into a disappointed frown as he marched over to Marik, the only person left without a partner, "Well," Yugi began, "Now that everyone is happy with their room buddy," This comment received quite a few angry mumbles, "Tea and I are going to begin making the list of things that everyone should pack! Anyone want to help?" Again there was commotion as everyone rushed to the computer.
Yami Bakura grinned down at his hikari, who had his eyes fixed on the monitor. 'Perhaps this vacation won't be so bad. I get to room with my sweet light.' Again he mentally smacked himself. 'I'm not supposed to love him! Gah! Did I just say that I loved my hikari?!' His gaze upon the albino softened, 'I think I did. . .'
