Ryou blinked as he sat by himself in his room. It was the middle of the night and he still couldn't get himself to fall asleep. The memories from a few hours ago came flooding back to him and made him feel breathless. The young white haired teen's heart was racing so fast he thought it might try to leap out of his tiny chest. Those surprisingly soft lips against his felt absolutely wonderful in the cold winter night. It warmed up his body; he wanted that feeling again.

He rose from his bed and decided to find something to snack on. In the darkened kitchen, he managed to find some cheddar cheese popcorn, so he placed it in the microwave to cook. Now fully wide awake, he grabbed some eggnog and poured himself a glass of it and went to sit on the couch.

"Hmmm, wonder what's on TV this late at night…" he pondered as he grabbed the TV remote and flipped through the channels until he came across this zombie movie. The popcorn was done, so he went to retrieve that before returning to his seat on the couch and watching that movie.

He was still wide awake after the movie ended, so he got up and cleaned the dishes he just dirtied. When he was done, he found himself wandering towards Bakura's room. He gently opened the door which let in a silver streak of moonlight in the room. He could make out Bakura's body lying there in the bed sleeping. Ryou wanted to get a better look so he walked up next to the bed and watched his sleeping expression.

It was sweet, he was smiling; and by that he meant it wasn't a smirk or one of those notorious grins of his, but a genuine smile. It was precious and he tried to enjoy the moment as long as possible, knowing he'd most likely never get this chance again.

Bakura's eyes jolted open and he lunged at Ryou, rolling him onto the bed and pinning him down in one fluid move. He winked at the younger one.

"Hey, came back for some more I assume?" he chuckled. "You didn't really think I was asleep did you?"

Ryou, too stunned to move, attempted to say something but the words just didn't come out. He simply laid there pinned down staring up at Bakura.

"What?" The word rolled off Bakura's tongue smoothly, seductively, like a rich hot chocolate just with freshly melted dark chocolate.

"Just…"Ryou started, staring intently at his shirt, completely avoiding Bakura's stare." I really enjoy your company and… you feel really warm next to me. You warm up my chilly nights.

Bakura stared at him wide eyed, a sudden warmth filling his chest. 'Is this the same warmth the little one was talking about?' He wondered.

"I'm… going to stop letting you use my Netflix account for romance movies, you're getting cheesy and I certainly don't like this." Bakura pouted, trying to put on an annoyed expression but failing.

It was insanely obvious the thief did like the snow white haired teen being cheesy; he was just too damn stubborn to admit to it. But it was cute watching him be in denial.

"Whatever you say Bakura, whatever you say."

"What was that!" he snapped back.

"I said; let's go finish that zombie movie I was watching in the living room. There's even some cheddar popcorn left that I made."

"Since when does my little coward watch zombie movies?" Bakura questioned, eyeing him strangely.

"Zombie movies are really the only good thing on TV this late at night."

"Works for me…" Bakura placed a swift kiss to Ryou's forehead and picked him up and carried him off to the living room couch and plopped him down. He grabbed the blanket and joined him on the couch, covering the both of them with the warm blanket.

"Damnit! Movie's almost over." Ryou complained. Bakura, in turn, stared at the other one with an open mouth, surprised at his swearing.

"You cursed. Ryou cursed. My lighter side…cursed?" It just didn't make sense, the words, they didn't go together. "Holy Ra and Anubis, my baby is growing up!"

Ryou threw popcorn at the thief. "Oh hush you; it's not that big of a deal."

"Say it again?" Bakura seemed a little too eager.

"Let's just watch the movie ok?"

Bakura threw a pillow at Ryou, and then laid down on the little one's lap where the pillow landed.

"What, What are you doing!"

"I'm watching the movie, can you quit yelling! Ra!" Bakura chuckled silently to himself.

The two of them spent a good 45 minutes just focusing on the movie before turning to each other to cuddle under the blanket. The younger one nuzzled Bakura in an affectionate manner, and he in turn, nuzzled back.

'Never would've guess Bakura could be loving.' He thought to himself.

"We could always drag Marik in here, make it a three way?" Bakura slyly suggested which cause Ryou's face to blossom a deep shade of red.

"Oh bloody hell no!"

"Hahahahahahaha" Bakura laughed evilly. "I was joking, well partially; as long as it's not Yugi, I don't mind."

"Just what have you got against my friend anyways!"

"I have nothing against the' I drink coffee so damn much that it most likely runs through my blood addicted' midget except for the fact that he has your attention so much."

"He is just my friend, Bakura. Quit being jealous, please." Ryou bathed in this glorious attention he was receiving from his darker side. Who knew the spikey snow haired devil could be so jealous?

Bakura woke up the next morning with Ryou snuggling against his chest still asleep. It was cute watching the younger one sleep so peacefully. He ran his fingers through Ryou's long hair. It was surprisingly soft and silky despite its spikey appearance. He leaned over a planted a kiss on Ryou's rosy lips before rising slowly and preparing some coffee for the two of them.

The doorbell rang. He sighed and walked over to the door and peeked through the hole to see who was there. It was the little midget Yugi. What the hell does he want so early in the morning? He opened the door suddenly.

"What do you want?"

"I smelled coffee heating up!"

Bakura face palmed, and proceeded to shut the door in his face. Ryou stirred and rolled over still half asleep.

"Who…was that?" Ryou yawned out.

"Nobody important." Bakura shrugged, and poured himself a hot cup of coffee. Reaching over, he put in a few spoonfuls of sugar and went into the living room. He set his coffee down on the table in front of the couch then layed himself down to watch some TV.

A scream came from outside.

"Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhh Bakura's being mean!" Yugi's cry came from behind the door.

Ryou stared blankly at the door, then at Bakura, who was sipping his coffee, then back at the door and sighed deeply.

"Can't you be nice once in a while?" Ryou said as he got up and walked to the door.

"Can't you enjoy a morning with just the two of us?"

Ryou paused, and looked over to stare at his spikey haired devil. He had on a scowl on his face and a twinge of sadness in his milk chocolaty brown eyes.

"Hey Yugi," Ryou said opening the door." I'm sorry, but we're a tad busy this morning. Another time ok?"

Yugi stood there in the doorway, and stared at Ryou, whom only had on a pair of pajama pants. He started blushing like a little schoolgirl.

"You…and Bakura…are?" Yugi stuttered.

"Huh?" Asked a very confused Ryou.

"Umm! Make sure you use protection!" Yugi turned tail and ran down the hallway toward the staircase.

"And you, Midget, use decaffeinated coffee for all our sakes!" Bakura screamed from the room.

Bakura, shirtless as well, stood up and glanced at Ryou contently.

"Oh, that wasn't necessary now was it?" Ryou laughed.

"Hell yea it was." He muttered into the little one's ear. "Let's go have ourselves some breakfast, my dear."

"Sounds like a plan." Ryou whispered back seductively as he hugged his other half.
