Day 09 – Hanging out with friends

"You can't be serious." Mariku looked at Malik in disbelief.

"I am."

"You do remember what happened last time?"

"I do."

"You want me to have two broken rips again?"

"No, I want you to behave like a normal human being."

"I can't stand him!"

"Yeah, I know, but Ryou is my friend, so you have to deal with Bakura, if you like it or not."

"I'll break his nose again."

"No, you won't! Don't let him provoke you."

"He provokes me by just breathing." Malik rolled his eyes. "Why can't I stay at home?"

"Well fine, stay at home. I'll have a nice day with Ryou and Bakura."

"No, I don't trust him."

"What do you think he will do?" Mariku shrugged his shoulders. "You're such a child." Malik said and put on his jacket.

Grumbling Mariku followed Malik down the street. He wasn't happy about seeing Bakura. Every time they met it ended in a fight. Last time, he broke Bakura's nose, while Bakura broke two of his rips. Malik was so mad at him, Mariku was afraid. Mariku didn't want that to happen again, but seeing Bakura's face was enough to make him angry.

"You know, if you would stop starting a fight with everyone, we could hang out with Yuugi and his friends."

"That's even worse."

"So, you're admitting Bakura isn't as worse as Yuugi?"

"I'm admitting Bakura is only one idiot, while Yuugi and his friends are five idiots. Also, I don't like the way Jonouchi looks at you."

"Oh, there they are!" Malik said and waved. Mariku rolled his eyes at the sight of Bakura. If looks could kill both of them would have dropped dead already.

"Malik, Mariku, nice to see you. How's it going?" Malik and Ryou immediately started chit-chatting while Mariku and Bakura were just staring at each other. Their bodies were tensed and ready for a fight.

"Are you going to Yuugi's party?" Ryou asked, and Mariku's and Bakura's gazes turned to their lovers at the same time.

"I'm not sure yet."

"What party?" Asked Mariku

"We're not going," said Bakura at the same time.

"Yuugi's having a party next weekend and he invited us." Malik explained and took his boyfriend by the hand.

"We're not going." Mariku repeated Bakura's words.

"Oh come on, it would be nice."

"No!" Bakura and Mariku said at the same time. Ryou rolled his eyes and Malik look at Mariku disappointed.

"I'm not allowing Jonouchi around you." Mariku said angrily.

"Honda wants to fuck you. I'm not letting him anywhere close to you." Bakura insisted.

Mariku and Bakura looked at each other. "So, you think one of Yuugi's friends wants to fuck your boyfriend too?" Mariku asked.

"I not only think he wants to, I know it, but Ryou thinks I'm just imagining it."

"I know what you mean. Malik's the same. I'm pretty sure Jonouchi would hit on him as soon as I'm not looking."

"I really wish Honda would give me a reason to break every bone in his body."

"Yeah, same goes for Jonouchi. I just want to beat the living daylight out of him."

Malik and Ryou looked at their boyfriends in disbelief. "Are they just becoming friends?"

"It… looks like it."
