AoA: Hello everyone >.> This is Archeress of Apollo and I shall be co-authoring this with Priestess of Camazotz ^_^
Bakura: You're working on yet another story?! And one about that pathetic hikari of mine no less!?
AoA: *pinches either of his cheeks with both hands and says babylike* Yesh, I am Bakuwa, and thewe's nuffin' you can do about it...
Bakura: *carefully hides his grimace before glaring darkly at me* Oh there're things I can do about it...
AoA: Eheh *laughs nervously and scoots away* I should just let everyone know that... my portion of the chapters are probably not going to be as long as Priestess's. Most of my chapter work breaks about 1800 words a piece (sometimes 2000 if I'm lucky) and I've seen some of hers go into 3000+ @.@ My attention span is not good enough to make a chapter that long. But I hope you enjoy them nonetheless ^_^
Bakura: And because she seems to have forgotten *mutters a few choice expletives in my direction* this baka owns nothing.
-----------------------------
Morning sunlight filters across your face from the open blinds on the window. You know with it's presence that you should awake, but you're just feeling too darn comfortable. There is something warm, and slightly pliant pressed against you and groggily you reach out to wrap your arms around it, snuggling closer to it as if for support. And just before you're about to fall back to sleep, the thing you've wrapped yourself around murmurs your name.
"Sachiel?"
You wake fully with a start, nearly falling off the bed in your haste to pull away from Ryou. "S- sorry, Ryou... I was half asleep," you mutter out a useless apology.
He only rolls over to look at you with a sleepy smile, "It's okay." His mouth stretches with a yawn and you find the action contagious and quickly cover your mouth as you do the same. "What do you say to breakfast before our shopping adventure?"
Involuntarily you grimace, remembering just how little you're fond of shopping, but the look is lost because Ryou has already turned away to slip out of the bed and stretch. Although you haven't answered his question, you can only stare silently at the way the muscles in his back move beneath that shirt while he stretches and you find yourself squeezing your eyes shut and shaking your head, trying to think of other things.
"You don't want any breakfast?" He must have turned around in time to see you shaking your head.
And you shake your head again, "No, it wasn't that. Uh... breakfast sounds all right " You give him what you hope is a reassuring look, but probably just looks guilty.
He studies your face curiously a moment before nodding and motioning for you to follow him as he pads quietly out of the room. You follow behind him, your feet making soft noises against the hardwood floor that covers the hallway and stairs and stretches into the small kitchen in Ryou's home. As you make yourself comfortable at the kitchen table, folding your arms on top and resting your chin on them, Ryou busies himself with finding something for the two of you to eat. It's always slightly amusing how he never asks what you want and somehow always knows what to place before you.
This morning it is maple and brown sugar poptarts with a glass of milk to dip them in. Well, for Ryou to dip them in, which is something you also find immensely cute about him {so much cuteness @.@}. As you take a bite out of your whole poptart, you watch with a hidden smile as he breaks both of his into fourths and dunks the first of the pieces into his milk. Just as it reaches his mouth and before he takes a bite, he looks up at you, his dark brown eyes widening as he catches you staring. Just faintly a pink tint slides across his cheeks and he takes his bite out of the pop tart. You only smile at him before munching on your poptart some more.
"So, our shopping adventure today..." Ryou murmurs aloud, having finished the first of his poptarts. By this time you're already out of your seat, dumping the crumbs and paper towel he'd given you into the trash can.
You groan again, "Are you sure we can't just skip that?"
A small grin comes over his features and he shakes his head. "No, I'm afraid not."
Pursing your lips with a playful glare, you reply, "Aren't you supposed to be compliant?"
Ryou's grin widens, "I thought I was." He easily pulls off an innocent gaze.
Rolling your eyes, you shuffle back to your seat and sit down, watching him quietly as he eats the rest of his breakfast. Soon afterwards, he slides out of his seat. "I suppose you'll have to borrow more of my clothes, unless you'd like to go back to the house before we leave?"
Slowly your nose scrunches up. Not that it really mattered to either of you that you were putting the boy behind in laundry, but you actually had to consider the decision. After a few moments, you shrugged. "Might as well grab something of yours, if you don't mind?"
He gives you a warm smile and nods. "Sure. I'm going to go get a shower... you're welcome to afterwards, if you want?"
You shake your head, not telling him it's because you've got no clean undergarments. That is definitely not something you're sharing of his, even though you're quite certain he wouldn't agree to that anyway. A small smile twists your lips when you think of the lurid blush that would appear on his cheeks if you did ask. Ryou's eyes turn questioning at the look but you only shake your head again. "I'll change while you're showering."
