Chapter 5 � Paradise Lost � Part Two
******************************
The chase went
on for about fifteen minutes before Yami got annoyed enough and told Marik and
Bakura to do something about their hikaris or else.
Marik,
who�d been busting a gut laughing the entire time, said one word, �Malik.� It was all he needed to say. Malik had been about to make another comment
but snapped his mouth shut immediately while Bakura grabbed Ryou and held him
down in his lap for a while until he calmed down.
Yugi looked
out the kitchen windows in time to spot the others coming up from the beach next
door. �Hey! Here comes Joey, Kaiba, and the girls!�
Malik
bounced to the glass patio doors and threw them open to admit their friends.
�Hey
Malik!� Joey waved. �Everyone else awake?�
�Yep!�
Yugi tilted
his head at the group as they came in.
�So what shall we do, guys?�
Joey�s
stomach rumbled loudly and Kaiba rolled his eyes.
�Was that
your stomach or a growl, pup?�
Joey gave
him a short glare then ignored him.
�I�m starved. Why don�t we go to
a restaurant or something?�
Bakura
wound a lock of Ryou�s hair on his finger absently. �Sure. We could use
something to eat.�
�Then we
could do some shopping.� Serenity
suggested.
Kaiba
looked a little pained at that, but shrugged.
Everyone else made noises of agreement.
�Okay
then.� Kala clapped her hands and led
the way to the front door. �Let�s go
eat!�
They
trooped over to the hotel�s dining room restaurant.
�Oh
boy!� Malik licked his lips. �Buffet!�
Marik
grinned and grabbed him before he could dash over and dive in. �Easy, hikari. Let�s sit down first and order something to drink.�
Bakura
grinned. �Yeah. Then we can raid the food.�
Ryou sighed
and exchanged looks with Yugi and Yami.
Their group
was led to a long table and it wasn�t long before a waitress appeared to take
their drink orders.
�Well,
folks, what can I�ah!� She let out a
squeal as she looked up from her notepad and saw whom they were. �Yugi!
Joey!�
Yugi stared
at the girl. {Oh, no�Yami, tell me I�m
hallucinating. Please?!}
Yami had
paled considerably and was glaring crimson flame at her. {I wish I could, aibou. Ra help us.}
Ryou winced
at the squeal and leaned closer to Bakura, who wrapped a protective arm around
his waist.
Malik was
restraining Marik�s hands because he�d automatically reached for the Millennium
Rod when he�d heard that voice.
Mai,
Serenity, and Joey had plastered fake smiles of greeting on their faces. Kaiba had muttered a profanity under his
breath and slouched slightly in his seat.
Kala just stared blankly at the girl then around the table at her
friends, not quite sure what was wrong.
�Uh�wow! Hi, Tea.�
Yugi finally spoke up since no one else seemed to be able to. �What are you doing here?�
�Oh, I�m
just working to raise some more money for school next year.� She waved that off, smiling brightly. �I can�t believe you�re all here! I missed you guys so much! I�m sorry I haven�t called or written for a
while but I�ve been so busy and��
�Hey! New girl!�
A voice called out from behind a partition that Yugi assumed was the
back area and kitchen of the restaurant.
�Quite gabbing and get back to work!
We aren�t paying you for nothing you know!�
Tea went
red and glared at the voice. �Ah�can I
take your order?� The group gave it and
she ran off to get their drinks.
�Hey,
Yami? How about we just�� Marik made a
suggestive motion with the Rod, which Malik hadn�t been able to keep him from
drawing out but had managed to keep his Yami from using.
Bakura had
a glint in his eyes to match Marik�s.
�I�m with the psychopath.�
Joey shook
his head. �Come on, guys. I know none of us are very fond of her after
the way she was acting after the Battle City tournament, but we can�t send her
to the Shadow Realm. Even Tea doesn�t
deserve that.�
Kaiba
snorted. �Says you. No one would miss her.�
Yami tapped
his fingers irritably on the tabletop.
�Personally, I agree. However��
He glanced at Yugi, who was giving him a look that said, �Don�t you dare!� He sighed.
�No. We�ll just have to suffer
through this meal and make sure we eat elsewhere from now on.�
Mai studied
her nails. �I agree with that. Besides, there are plenty of other
restaurants here that we can try, too.�
Kala leaned
over to ask quietly, � Why doesn�t anyone like this Tea person, Kaiba?�
He glanced
at her and smiled � just a little wickedly, too. �She�s extremely annoying.
I�ll tell you about it all later.�
They were
all supremely relieved that the restaurant got very busy just then. It meant that Tea couldn�t bother them much
because she was too busy serving the other tables.
It also
helped that they stuck to the buffet.
After
they�d finished, they had a short discussion about what to do next. It was eventually decided that they would
just go to the shops within walking distance and leave the malls and everything
else for days when there was more time to explore.
While the
girls dashed into a small store selling authentic Hawaiian hula skirts and
other female clothes, Joey, Yugi, Yami, and Kaiba went into a bookstore to
browse, leaving Bakura, Ryou, Marik, and Malik to decide on where they wanted
to look first.
Ryou and
Malik whispered amongst themselves for a moment before grabbing their yamis�
hands and pulling them into a men�s clothing store.
�Hikari,
what are you up to?� Marik asked,
eyeing the shirts as he was dragged past.
�Ryou,
love, I don�t think so.� Bakura
was backing away from his hikari, hands held out defensively. �No way in all Hell will you get me into one
of those eye-sores.�
He was
referring to the brightly coloured, highly over-decorated palm tree Hawaiian
shirt Ryou was holding.
�Come on,
�Kura! You can�t go to Hawaii and not
buy one of these! Malik and I are
getting one too!�
Marik paled
and tried to escape but couldn�t because Malik had grabbed him by the waistband
of his cargo shorts and held on tight.
�Oh no you don�t. Lighten up,
you guys. It�s not like we�re going to
make you wear them to a club or something when we get home.�
Bakura and
Marik exchanged pitiful glances of defeat and were dragged back to the change
rooms by their hikaris.
Meanwhile,
in the bookstore, Yugi, Yami and Joey were going through the magazine section
looking for Duel Monsters magazines and copies of the latest issue of Joey�s
favourite manga � which the bookstore apparently didn�t carry.
Kaiba was
on the other end of the store, thumbing through the business section.
Yami left
his hikari and Joey quietly arguing over an American entertainment magazine and
wandered over to Kaiba, curious about what the CEO was looking at.
Kaiba
glanced at him then went back to browsing.
�Something on your mind?�
�No. I was just curious to see what sort of books
you were looking at.�
Choosing
another, rather thick book off the shelf, Kaiba scanned the leaflet
absently. �I�m just looking.� He snorted indelicately at the book and put
it back. �Useless. Maybe I should try a new section.� He faced Yami with a raised eyebrow. �Have you ever considered catching up on
your own reading? There are five
millennia or so worth of reading material out there, you know. If you want to get better acquainted with
the present, reading an assortment of literature from different eras would be a
step in the right direction.�
Yami
studied him with surprised ruby-red eyes.
�Well. That is certainly very
wise advice, Seto.�
Shrugging,
Kaiba moved along the rows of books until he reached a small history
section. �Not really. If you�re just interested in pure history,
though, there�s always history books like these.� He frowned at a book about ancient Egypt. �Excluding most books about home, of
course.�
�Of
course.�
Joey and
Yugi appeared at Yami�s side just then.
�Hey guys! Did you find anything
good?� Yugi inquired.
�Yugi,
love, would you recommend something good for me? I have an awful lot of reading to catch up on.� Yami took Yugi�s hand and followed his
eager, helpful hikari to the literature section, leaving Joey and Kaiba behind.
�So�� Joey
shuffled his feet nervously. He didn�t
know how to act around his arch nemesis anymore and hadn�t since their duel in
Yami�s palace. �Did you find anything
interesting?�
Kaiba
sighed and glanced at the blonde. Ever
since that duel he�d been forced to re-evaluate his opinions about Joey. And he still had yet to make up his
mind. �No. I haven�t.� Frowning slightly,
he noticed Joey was hiding something behind his back. �What�s behind your back, pup?�
Joey
scowled at the name, but didn�t deign to comment. �Nothing.�
Kaiba
rolled his eyes. �Oh, come on,
Wheeler. I can tell you�ve got
something there. What is it?�
�It�s just
a book I thought might be worth reading sometime. What do you care?�
�I
don�t. Just curious what it could be
that you feel the need to hide it from me.�
Joey
snorted. �Typical Kaiba. Fine.
Here, take a look.� He held out
the book to the CEO and Kaiba took it.
� �How to
draw animation characters.�� He read
aloud, surprise edging his voice. He
looked up and raised an eyebrow. �You
draw?�
Joey
grinned cheerfully. �Nope! But I thought I�d give it a try. You know...develop a hobby that doesn�t
involve cards, monsters, or Millennium Items.�
�I suppose
I can understand that.� Kaiba handed
back the book. �Where�d you find that?�
Joey
blinked then remembered what classes Kaiba was taking (and that the Duel
Monsters world champion didn�t know he knew).
�Uh�over here.� Joey led him to
the shelf full of �how to draw/paint/whatever� books. Slyly, he asked, �What would you want with one of these?�
Kaiba
stiffened slightly and blurted out the first thing he could come up with. �Not for me. For Mokuba. Yeah.�
Joey had a
hard time trying to keep from laughing at the slightly flustered brunette. They were both saved by the arrival of
Marik, Malik, Bakura, and Ryou.
Both Joey
and Kaiba stared in shock and a whole lot of amusement at the two yamis. Marik was wearing a bright purple Hawaiian
shirt with little hula dancers all over it and Bakura was wearing a bright
green Hawaiian shirt with little palm trees all over it. Both were blushing and looking vaguely
annoyed.
Their
hikaris, however, were beaming happily, either oblivious or just ignoring it.
�Nice
shirts.� Was all Kaiba said,
snickering. One set of hard purple eyes
and one pair of dark burgundy eyes locked onto him and the look therein spoke
of instantaneous death if he said even one more thing.
Joey,
wisely, kept his mouth shut. Instead,
he nudged Ryou and leaned over to ask quietly, �What�d you have to do to get
them into those shirts?�
Ryou went
very red. �Um�we have to let them dress
us up in leather sometime. All their
choice, too.� He gave Malik a small
glare. �Though I suspect it doesn�t
really worry Malik much.�
�I wouldn�t
think so.� Joey nodded his agreement.
Yugi and
Yami joined them and anyone buying something did so quickly before the group of
boys went to grab the girls and head back to the hotel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
�So what do
we do now?� Serenity asked.
�Well,
we�ve got that beach out there.� Kala
glanced out the glass patio doors. �Why
don�t we all go relax in the sand and sun for the rest of the day?�
Malik
bounced up and down from his spot on Marik�s lap. �Yeah! I could go for
that.�
�Hikari, as
much as I like that�� Marik winced and grabbed Malik by the hips to hold him
still.
Everyone
rolled their eyes.
�I think I
could go for a swim.� Ryou nodded his
agreement. Bakura ruffled his hair.
�I hope
you�ve got lots of sun-block, little light.�
He rubbed a thumb over Ryou�s cheek.
�I don�t want you to burn that beautiful skin of yours.�
Ryou smiled
angelically.
�Awesome
idea, Kala! I�m in!� Joey dashed for the stairs. �I�ve gotta go get my swim trunks.� Mai smiled at his enthusiasm and followed.
�Yugi, do
you wish to go to the beach?� Yami
inquired.
�Sure!� Yugi smiled then looked to Kaiba. �Did you bring your deck, Seto?�
Kaiba
folded his arms across his chest and snorted.
�Of course, I did. My deck goes
everywhere with me.�
�Wanna have
a duel?�
Kaiba
raised an eyebrow. �Why not? I could use the practice.�
Kala sighed
and headed for the stairs to go change, Serenity right behind her. �Duelists.�
She muttered.
Everyone
else went to their cabin/rooms to get changed into their beach wear.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yami
stretched out on a beach towel, slipping his sunglasses on and propping his
head up with his hands folded behind his head.
He had the urge to purr as he thoroughly enjoyed the heat of the sun
gently warming his skin, already golden due to his ancient origins.
Yugi
plopped down next to him with a grin, his own sunglasses glinting in the
sunlight, along with the Millennium Puzzle that lay on the sand between them
protectively. {Enjoying yourself, love? You look right at home lying there like
that.}
{Hmm�we
need to do this more often, aibou. It�s
very relaxing here, isn�t it?}
�Yep!� Yugi agreed cheerfully. �Do me a favour and put this on my back,
Yami?� He dangled a bottle of sun block
in front of his soul mate.
Yami took
the bottle and studied it. �What is
this for?�
�It
protects your skin from the sun.�
The ancient
King of Egypt sat up and eyed his hikari over the top of his sunglasses with a
raised eyebrow, as if to ask, �What the hell for?�
Yugi sighed
at the look. �It may not bother you
much, oh Pharaoh, but in case you hadn�t noticed, I�m not as gorgeously tanned
as your Egyptian self. I burn easily.� Yugi raised his own eyebrow at Yami. �You wouldn�t want me to be red like a
lobster, would you?�
Yami
blinked and opened the bottle, squirting some lotion into his palm without
another word, and began applying it to Yugi�s back and shoulders.
Ryou was on
his stomach nearby on his own towel, really enjoying his yami�s full attention
as Bakura massaged sun block into the fair-haired hikari�s ivory skin. When he�d finished, they traded places and
Ryou rubbed lotion into his yami�s fair skin � though he really didn�t need it,
being a spirit.
On their
other side, Malik and Marik were arguing over the towel, not bothering with sun
block at all. After all, they were
Egyptian and quite used to the sun.
Kala, Mai
and Serenity were stretched out on beach chairs they�d found on the deck of
their cabin wearing their swimsuits and soaking up sunshine. Joey was sitting on the sand on a towel in
front of them, digging through a cooler full of ice-cold cans of soda.
Kaiba was
the last to join the group, settling down in a beach chair of his own and
flipping open his new book. He didn�t
even look up when Joey appeared at his side and offered him a drink.
�Want a
soda, Kaiba?�
�Cola?�
�Yep. There�s a few of those in here.� Joey handed him one from the cooler�and
scowled when Kaiba didn�t even thank him.
�Gee, Mr.
Money-bags! You�re welcome!� He snapped grumpily and stalked off to the
girls.
At his
annoyed voice, Seto blinked and looked up in surprise, not sure what he�d done
this time. He noticed Yami and Yugi
looking at him and shaking his head.
{What did I
do?}
{You could
have at least been polite and thanked him, Seto.} Yugi answered in his gentle voice, softening the reprimand. {But don�t take his temper to heart,
either�} Kaiba frowned when Yugi
glanced over at his best friend sadly.
{His father wasn�t the nicest person in the world.}
Seto�s
frown deepened at the cryptic comment, not sure why he seemed to feel a bit
guilty or why he even cared at all. He
went back to his book, his thoughts running through all the possible reasons
for it � missing the twin expressions of sly knowledge passing over the royal
pair�s faces.
�Hey,
Yugi! Wanna build a sand castle?!� Ryou inquired.
�Ooooh! Good idea!
Hey, Malik! Come help us!� Yugi and Ryou dashed eagerly toward the
water.
�A sand
castle? What�s that?� Malik followed, sitting next to them on the
sand as they prepared to dig in. He
stared back blankly when they just stared at him in shock.
�You�ve
never made a sand castle before?� Ryou
finally exclaimed.
�Well�we�ll
just have to do something about that.�
Yugi picked up a handful of sand and let it slowly pour out of his
hand. �Rule #1: dry sand doesn�t hold a
form very well. We need wet sand.�
�And some
sort of containers�� Ryou jumped up.
�I�ll go see what I can scrounge up in the cabin.� The white haired hikari dashed off.
The three
yamis sat back and watched in curious amusement as Yugi used his infinite
patience to teach Malik the art and science of building sand castles, since
they�d never done that either.
The hikaris
ended up competing against Joey, Serenity, and Kala for the best castle well
into the evening.
The group
finally got hungry and decided to order out for supper from the hotel, rather
than going out somewhere.
No one,
however, was expecting the person who delivered the food.
