Chapter 3: Malik's Mood Swings and Shower Trouble


Bright sunlight pierced through the window, as Ryou opened his eyes from a more than comfortable sleep.

He smiled to himself as he noticed Malik still sleeping, and their bodies still tangled together.

"Malik, wake up." He nudged the sleeping boy with his nose. "I've got school."

Malik muttered something incoherent, then wrapped his arms even tighter around Ryou's waist.

"Malik..." Ryou began prying Malik's arms of him. "Come on, I really need to go to school! I'll get you a pillow to hug if you want."

All of a sudden, Malik's eyes snapped open. Glaring and looking a bit hurt, he retrieved his arms from Ryou's waist, turning his back on him. "Fine."

"Wha--" Ryou felt guilty at once, staring at the Egyptian's engraved back. So Malik had weird mood swings. And Ryou, being the nice person he was, wanted to make it up to him. "If you want, you can come to school with me."

Malik turned back to him a little...then slowly moved until they were face to face, and Ryou's cheeks were blushing bright red. "Promise?"

Ryou nodded nervously, feeling Malik's breath traveling across his face, those beautiful lavender eyes studying him. "I promise."

Malik smirked, then he sat up, running a hand through his hair. "Let's take a shower."

Ryou sat up too, stretching his arms above his head. "Okay. You go first."

Malik let out a snort. Then he grabbed Ryou's shoulders and pinned him down on the bed, his eyes flashing.

"Malik?" Ryou cried out in surprise, his face turning pink.

The Egyptian smirked, lifting over his right leg, completely trapping Ryou beneath him. "Are you noticing my mood swings, Ryou?"

Ryou tilted his head in confusion. "Err...you mean..."

"Baka." Malik leaned down and pressed his forehead against his captive, making Ryou blush redder if it was possible. "Back when we were playing truth or dare, I was feeling a bit innocent...when you saw me with Nefertiri, I was quite angsty...when we were talking last night, I was a bit TOO soft... remember?"

Ryou laughed nervously again. He shivered as he felt Malik's slender brown hand crawl up and down against his chest, unbuttoning his shirt amazingly slow. "Whatever you say, Malik. Can we...umm...get up now?"

Malik ignored his request and became intent in opening his shirt until his bare chest was uncovered, then he gently let his fingers travel downward. "Can you tell what my mood is right now, Ryou?"

"I can't-----------AAAAAAAHHH!!!!!" Ryou gasped, his face looking so red it could have been ready to explode, as he felt Malik's hand lightly squeeze his crotch over his pants. "Malik!!! Watch where you touch me!!!"

Malik laughed softly, licking his hand, and Ryou could have sworn he'd never looked sexier. "You know what, Ryou? I'm feeling VERY VERY seductive today..."

"I can tell that!" Ryou cut in, nearly screaming in frustration. "But---!"

Malik raised an eyebrow. "What? I'm not good enough for you?"

"That's not what I meant!" Ryou protested. "I just--"

"I wanted to take the shower with you. Would you?"

"I can't! I don't want to! I mean---"

"Tche." Malik stuck his tongue out at Ryou, then got off him. "If you really don't want me, then fine. It's very RARE I ask a person to shower with me. You just lost your ONE and ONLY chance."

"Malik!" Ryou propped himself up on his elbows, watching the other boy head to the bathroom. "I didn't mean it like that, you know!"

"Oh, shut up, Ryou!" Malik snapped, heading inside the bathroom, and banging the door shut behind him.

Ryou remained on his bed, mouth hanging open. What was that? Another one of Malik's mood swings? The transition from sweet sexy Malik to really angry and annoyed Malik came in just about what?---A few seconds?

Ryou ruffled his hair in frustration. "Malik, you're going to be very hard to live with!!!" he screamed, throwing a pillow on the bathroom door.

Malik peeked a wet head out of the bathroom, sticking his tongue out at Ryou again. "So are you! You naive, innocent...whatever! You're TOO NICE and TOO STUPID to do anything wild or fit in the world it's disgusting! What are you going to do? Stay cooped under your mother's skirt forever?"

Ryou breathed deeply, huffing over to the bathroom where Malik's head was still sticking out. "I.Am.NOT.TOO.NICE.NOR.TOO. STUPID!!! Take back what you said, Malik Ishtar!"

"Make me." Malik snapped. "You're so nice, bet you can't even come in here and see me naked!"

"Ha!" Ryou glared. "I can too!"

"Dream on!" Malik taunted, sticking his head back in and closing the door.

"Malik!" Ryou demanded. "I'm not finished with you!"

Silence except for the shower running.

"Malik!!!"

More silence.

"ARRRGGGHHH!" Ryou extended his hand and pushed the bathroom door open, slipping inside before the door closed. "You evil bastard! I will kill----oh, Ra."

Ryou's mouth hung wide open, his eyes just as wide, seeing Malik naked from head to foot, looking oh--so-sexy with EVERYTHING wet.

"Like what you're seeing?" Malik smirked, taking a step forward. "You're drooling Ryou."

Ryou wiped on his mouth, then shook his head roughly, hitting himself on the head, as though trying to bring himself back to his senses. "Oh, sorry, Malik. I'm going out now."

Just as Ryou turned to go, Malik grabbed him by his shirt, looking annoyed. "Oh no you're not. You came in here, now you're gonna stay."

"But---" Ryou began, not turning to him, trying to hide his lusting eyes.

Malik let him go. "Alright, leave. But I swear this is the last time I'm asking you!"

Ryou swallowed. He could hear Malik getting on with his showering, rubbing soap against his skin. Something told him he was going to regret not getting in the shower with Malik now. He imagined himself at 80, and regretting not to have come through this moment. He sighed deeply.

"Well, why aren't you leaving?" Malik inquired curtly.

Ryou turned to the Egyptian boy, once again awestruck at the beautiful tanned skin of his nakedness. "I'm going to be late for school and I REALLY NEED TO SHOWER RiGHT NOW."

Malik smirked again, crossing his arms over his chest. "So strip already."

Ryou did as he was told, and as he slipped off his shirt, pants, and boxers, he could feel Malik's eyes watching EVERY inch of him, especially that THING hanging between his legs. "Stop it."

"What?" Malik pretended to look innocent and failed. "I'll be sucking that thing soon enough."

Ryou gasped, staring at Malik in shock. "Did I give you any permission to do that?"

'"Shut up." Malik said, grabbing Ryou's wrist and pulling him under the shower, letting the water drop sensuously against their bodies. "Anyway, I said SOON ENOUGo I\o I'm going to wait until you fall madly in love with me and then surrender your pretty body to me and I'll do to it whatever I want." He wrapped his arms around Ryou's waist and nuzzled his neck.

"Whatever you want?" Ryou said unsurely, nevertheless relaxing in Malik's hold.

"Quit acting so innocent, Ryou." Malik lifted his head and looked Ryou straight in the eye. "Everybody knows deep down you're a hentai."

"Wha--???" Ryou turned red again, raising his hand to slap Malik. "Malik! You sick son of a--"

"Tsk.Tsk.Tsk." Malik caught his wrist and pressed the angry hand firmly against his tanned chest. "Such language, Ryou. Wherever do you learn that?"

"Not where you learned yours!" Ryou snapped, poking his chest. "Are you kissing me or what?"

Malik looked at him in surprise, then grinned. "Whatever you want."

He moved his face forward and let his lips meet Ryou's. He felt Ryou shiver lightly at the contact, but pretty soon, he was kissing back. Malik bit Ryou's lips lightly, so Ryou opened his mouth, and Malik slipped his tongue in, roaming around, tasting the whole of Ryou's mouth.

They went on french kissing for nearly 15 minutes. It was really a one-sided battle because Ryou let Malik be dominant this time.

"Hey, Ryou." Malik whispered between the kiss. "What are you thinking of?"

"Revenge." Ryou grinned, licking Malik's lips.

Malik smirked. "Do you think they'd actually like that?"

Ryou grabbed Malik's head and brought it fiercely down his open mouth, Malik's tongue jamming down his throat.

They kissed like there was no tomorrow...

Then both boys thought of their Yamis, forcing their spirits to overtake the two bodies clinging naked to each other.

*****

a/n: MWAHAHAHAHA! CLIFFHANGER!!! remember that the egyptian spell Yami used on Ryou and Malik can only be use IF the hikaris are not thinking of their yamis. But since Yami Bakura and Yami Marik are so anxious to get out and kill each other, a single thought would FORCE them to come out. SO GUESS WHO ENDS UP NAKED IN THE SHOWER??? WAHAHAHAHA!! THIS IS PRICELESS.

Do review.
