Hey. New chapter :D
Anyway, thanks for the reviews, PhoenixPatch, Jonescalypso, darkelf777 and animetheyaoidrug (btw, animetheyaoidrug, I'm sorry.. Silly assumption. xD)

I don't own YuGiOh or the characters.
Please, enjoy.~

(Marik's POV)

I slept well that night; a comfortable, nightmare-free sleep, but in the morning, I noticed something a little bit odd. And when I said 'a little bit odd', I meant 'extremely odd'.

I woke up to something soft and fluffy tickling my face, making me want to sneeze. It felt as if someone was hugging me, too tightly for me to escape and, the funny thing was, I didn't want to escape. I sighed, perfectly content; it was surprisingly relaxing and comfortable. I shuffled closer to the mysterious thing, returning the object's lovely embrace. This is nice. My hands felt around the object, trying to discover what it actually was. Strange... It almost feels like... My eyes shot open but they were blinded by hair. White hair. I shouted out in pure horror.

"BAKURA?" I screamed, causing him to stir.

"Wh-what, Marik?" He muttered, tiredly. I gave him a few seconds to notice the situation with heat rising to my cheeks.

"MARIK, WHAT IN THE NAME OF BUGGERY IS GOING ON?" He shouted, while untangling his legs from mine and releasing me from his hug. We both jumped out of the bed, quickly, still staring at one another in shock.

"I don't even know how we ended up like that..." I mumbled, "But I'd rather just forget about the whole situation."

Bakura nodded with red cheeks. Wow. Bakura looks kind of cute when he's blushing... WAIT. ERASE THAT THOUGHT. Ugh. Don't worry, Marik, you're only thinking like this because you're in shock. Remember, men are never 'cute', especially not Bakura, you like women, you hear me? WOMEN. How did we end up like that? I blushed, remembering Bakura's warm hug. MARIK! You didn't enjoy it... Stop thinking like that. Ra, I feel so confused recently. It's all thanks to that friggin' white-haired, British, annoying, cocky, flirty, arrogant-

"Marik, let's go downstairs and get breakfast. Ryou will definitely be up by now, it's already 10," Bakura said, looking at the clock.

"Mhm," I replied, following him downstairs. I watched as his hair swished from side to side with his every step. So that's what was tickling my face this morning. I smiled, admiringly. Wow... It's really shiny. I kinda want to touch it. I unintentionally reached my hand out and touched Bakura's hair.

"Marik, what in Ra's name are you doing?" Bakura asked, looking puzzled. I laughed, pulled back my hand and shrugged. Bakura rolled his eyes and headed into Ryou and Melvin's kitchen. It was much neater than ours. Everything was in a specific place and everywhere looked spotless. Ryou would be so much easier to live with... but I don't really mind living with 'Kura anyway. He's certainly grown on me since we first met.

"Goodmorning, Marik! Morning, 'Kura!" Ryou said, smiling at us.

"Morning," we both replied. I looked around, curiously, Melvin wasn't in sight. I grinned at the fact that I didn't have to put up with my psychopathic older brother this morning.

"Where's Melvin?" Bakura asked, sounding really uninterested.

"He's at work. Now, I'm going to make some breakfast for us all! Bakura, I assume you want sausage, egg and bacon?" Bakura nodded in response. "Now, Marik, what would you like?"

"Just some toast, please, Ryou."

"Okay, please, go sit in the living room while I cook. I'll call you when it's ready."

Me and Bakura obeyed and sat together on Ryou and Melvin's sofa.

"Why do you only want toast?" Bakura inquired.

"Not that hungry," I said but my stomach growled in protest. Bakura raised an eyebrow.

"Ha! Your stomach disagrees! Now, Marik, my dear," I winced as he called me that, "why aren't you having anything else?"

"I'm watching my weight," I said simply.

"Why? I mean, you're thin enough as it is. Your slutty, purple vest makes that clear!"

"What was that? A compliment or an insult?"

"'KURA, MARIK, BREAKFAST!" came a voice from the kitchen.

"It can be whatever you want it to be, babe," Bakura said as he headed towards the kitchen and I followed behind. Ra, Bakura confuses me.

(Ryou's POV)

When the two sat down opposite each other at the table, I placed their plates in front of them and then took the seat next to Bakura. We all ate in silence for a bit but I soon decided to pipe up the conversation... or well, make things extra awkward.

"So... did you sleep alright last night, you two?" I asked.

They both grunted a 'yes' and looked down at their plates, avoiding eye contact with each other. I could see a slightly red tinge in Marik's cheek and I turned to see that Bakura's cheeks were also red. I smiled. Good job, Melvin...

(Bakura's POV)

"So... did you sleep alright last night, you two?" Ryou had asked. Marik and I both replied in the same fashion. I can't deny that when I was hugging Marik like that this morning, it felt good. In fact, I know it felt great. I don't really understand what that bloody bastard is doing to me... I mean, I know I'm straight. I've been with loads of girls before... There's just something about Marik that's getting to me... I don't know what it is. Maybe I'm just confused because he's practically a girl appearance wise and personality wise but still... It's bloody Marik! I don't even know how we ended up in that position. We were sleeping at opposite ends of the bed! Maybe Ryou and Melvin had something to do with it... No, Ryou wouldn't do something like that and he would not let Melvin do it either... Or would he? Maybe Melvin's changed Ryou... I wonder.

"Hm. Ryou, did you or Melvin do anything to either of us last night?" I asked, looking at him, curiously. I saw out of the corner of my eye that Marik's eyes had widened in understanding.

"W-what? What are you asking, brother?" Ryou replied, his eyes wide and innocent.

"Never mind," I muttered. I was right. Ryou would never do something like that. So, how did we end up in that position? Did Marik put us in that position? Wait, no. He was confused and shocked when he noticed. Maybe one of us did it in our sleep? I don't know. I found myself staring at Marik. He stared back. It was clear we were both as confused as each other. HOW DID IT HAPPEN? I scrunched my face up in confusion and then let out a sigh.

"Are you okay, 'Kura?" Ryou asked, worriedly. I nodded.

"I think it's about time Marik and I went home."

Hope you enjoyed the new chapter. I've tried to make Ryou's character sneaky. Bwaha :3
Please, review and tell me what you thought and how I can improve.
Thanks for reading.
