Giving Up Meat For Lent
~Day 21 – A Visit To McDonalds~

"Why the fuck did we come here?"

"Huh?" The Granger placed his hands into his pockets as he shot Kai a confused glance. "What's up?"

"You can buy food from here. But I'm not."

A sweat drop then formed onto the side of his forehead as he couldn't understand what was stressing his leader out so much; Tyson was really relaxed about this little visit, especially as he knew the menu inside out.

"Kai, they do salads here too. Hey, I think the guys even do a veggie burger, and before you start complaining about the food cross-contamination, yes, they cook the burger away from the meat. In fact, they cook the veggie burgers with the fries..."

He was cut short by the Dranzer wielder, who was ready to ask some serious questions about these facts that his teammate were explaining confidently. "How do you know all this?" Kai questioned in a curious tone.

Despite that it had taken Tyson a lot of effort to convince his captain to walk into this fast food restaurant, he was determined to make the guy eat something that was out of his comfort zone, especially as Tyson had gone the extra mile to give up eating meat alongside him.

"Me and Max come here during our midnight drives..." The champion then swallowed the last of his sentence to restrain himself from dropping the two best friends into trouble (Tyson and Max). So instead he just shrugged, changed the subject and laughed lightly, "Anyways, why don't you try a veggie burger from me?"

"A veggie burger? Tyson, I am not eating the garbage here."

"Okay okay, I get it."

As we all know, that wasn't the end of the discussion.

Tyson walked up to the kiosk and ordered, "Two veggie burger meals please, one with diet coke and the other with FULL FAT coke." Afterwards, he posed in a selfie with the Crew Member and he picked up two straws for their drinks.

"There. You're having one whether you want it or not."

An eyebrow raised on Kai's unimpressed face and he folded his arms. The guy was in that much of a pissed off mood that his fans wouldn't step within 5 footsteps of him – and even that was too close for his liking. Still, he refused to say anything, he just let all the silence do all the talking.

Shortly the food soon was called out and Tyson waved the brown McDonald's bags in his palms at his teammate sarcastically. "I got the grub! Do you wanna go back to the car and drive to the beach so we can eat it there?" Tyson knew he wasn't going to get a reply, so he just tugged at Kai's pocket as he passed his captain, to grab the car-keys.

Tyson was calling the shots today! And Kai didn't like it. Still, he wasn't uttering a single word and he went along with this to see where they would end up. Sometimes it was for the best, however, that was very rare.

"Well, at least the veggie burger is approved by the vegetarian society..." Announced Tyson as he slid his finger across the text on the packaging. "This means it's going to taste amazing. You'll see."

'Oh, we'll see alright.' - The captain concluded to himself. He just sat in the passengers seat with his takeaway bag in his lap. He wasn't going to touch it and there was nothing that Tyson would say nor do to convince him otherwise. Instead, he just sipped his Oasis and observed his teammates reaction to the taste of his shitty burger.

It did bother Kai slightly that his rival was now sitting in the drivers seat of HIS BMW with his hands plastered in slimy fast-food fatty goodness. Grease.

'The great Dragoon won't be able to save him from my wrath if any of that grease penetrates the interior.'~

However, after just one bite, the McDonald's mouthful soon flew out of the enthusiastic Japanese male's mouth. He began to cough heavily and he then reached out his hand to pick up his Coca-Cola; dramatically, Tyson took large sips of his drink to wash down that naff after taste that the veggie burger had left him with.

"What vegetarian approved of that crap?!"

By now the Hiwatari was dying to laugh and Tyson could see this – he watched his rival's lips curve up into a smug smile and this riled him slightly. Kai then placed the bag onto Tyson's lap and he stepped out the vehicle for a breath of fresh air. Just the smell of the cheap food was making the captain urge.

"I know what you're going to say. But just don't bother. Okay, I get it. You were right!" Tyson snarled. He then opened up Kai's meal bag and he picked up all his fries. "If you're not even going to touch these, then I won't let them go to waste."

"Be my guest." The bluenette bluntly murmured, "Now do you see why I won't eat here. It's shit."

"Kai, the 'shit' here is usually good. But it's clear to me that McDonald's don't like vegetarians." Tyson pointed out with his mouthful of fries. "Hey, do you think their barbecue dip has meat in it?"

"Urghhhh." A sweat drop appeared in the corner of Kai's forehead as he couldn't believe what he was hearing. That's when his patiences faded rapidly too. "Get out my car and take your cheap food with you. You're making me feel sick."


A/N: I'm really sorry if this piece didn't seem so lively or funny, I am just over exhausted. Thank you so much guys for all your support, I will do everything I can to keep helping you guys out because I love to see people progress in what they enjoy. I have almost been a vegetarian for 40 days now and it's probably been one of the best things I've ever done. But if you do convert to eating veg, never go to McDonalds because it's bullshit for us vegatarians haha - Granger~
