Routine

Routine 2

The second routine was the most changing and flowing as it came with interacting with different people. But a routine is a routine not matter what.

The walk to school was short considering Ryou (and therefore Marik) lived very close to Domino High. As the boys walked through gate, the bell let out a shrill ring, signaling the start of the school day. Neither Marik nor Ryou like arriving at school early as neither really had anything to do or look forward to.

First, they boys had history, which was, to be brutally honest, boring as fuck. The class held the occasional interesting fact or two but was for the most part to either nap or finish homework for another class. Next was P.E. which would have been fine in itself if it weren't for Mr. Karita (1). Third was Algebra 2, a subject that Marik was remarkably good at.

After all that, it was lunch time. They paid for their lunches and walked outside to sit under a tree. Ryou nibbled at his sandwich. Marik watched him momentarily before throwing an arm loosely around the smaller boys shoulder. Ryou leaned into Marik slightly as Marik looked between their plates. Each plate held a sandwich and small bag of chips, but that's where the similarities ended. While Marik's tray had a carton of chocolate milk and a carton of apple juice, Ryou's only had chocolate milk. Ryou forgot his juice, again, the way he did so many other days. Marik frowned and cleared his throat.

"Hey, Ryou," Marik started.

Ryou looked up from his sandwich. "Yes, Marik?"

A slight blush covered the Egyptians cheeks. No matter how many times he asked the stupid question, he felt embarrassed. As if he was being to sugary sweet. And that was Ryou's job. "You want my apple juice?" he asked offering Ryou the small carton.

Marik watched with a pleased expression as Ryou smiled brightly at him and took the carton of apple juice. "Sure!"

"So, you know, there's a football game this Friday?" Marik asked.

"Mhmm."

"Do you wanna go? Like…on a date?"

Ryou almost grinned. "Yeah, sure, okay," he said trying to sound as cool about it as possible. Both boys leaned in for a quick kiss. Marik could be so sweet sometimes…

While things shifted and changed constantly throughout the school day due to the different lesson plans and people they interacted, each day was relatively the same, passing in a hazy blur.

1) For those of you who don't know Mr. Karita is the gym teacher in season zero.

Okay, so I got that done pretty quick. But then it is only like a page long, lol. Um, I'm wondering whether I should include their little date or if I should just skip to evenings and weekends. Hmm. Anyway, thank you, Mistories for the review. That totally made my day!

So, thanks for reading, hoped you enjoyed it. Reviews would be appreciated. =3
