The Little merMarik (Yu-Gi-Oh! WA 2017)

14: Doing it himself

I HAVE RETURNED TO MY HOME AND AM GOING TO CELEBRATE WITH A DISTURBING CHAPTER
Melvin scowled at the glass ball that showed him anything he wanted about his chosen prey. He had been watching everything Marik had been doing, and got pissed off every time a romantic kiss went wrong. He couldn't care less that the thiefshipping fanservice hadn't really started yet -he just wanted his hugs.

He growled, took the glass ball, and threw it against the wall where it smashed into pieces.

"Um..." Slendy was confused. "Don't you need that to-"

"I don't need it anymore." Melvin sneered. "I've got an idea. I'm gonna have to take matters into my own hands-! Er...tentacles..."

He took the seashell that contained Marik's voice and wore it like a necklace.
"I didn't think I'd actually have to follow through with my backup plan." He said, tossing several ingredients into a cauldron for a potion. "I thought Marik would have kissed him by now, since he's gayer than the gayest gay of gayness."
Melvin put his potion in to action by swirling it into the water surrounding himself. He began laughing maniacally, then his double toned voice became singular and sounded like Marik's.

"Bloody idiots. All of them." Bakura leaned on the edge of the gate that separated the seashore and the mansion. Too bad Marik wasn't done showering yet, or else he could have stood beside him.

He looked out into the ocean. Something happened out there. I know it. I didn't just wash up on the shore.
Then he began thinking out loud. "But...Marik can't speak -let alone, sing. So, it couldn't have been him."

To add to the sound of the water that stroked the sand at the beach was an eerie, distant, and yet familiar voice that echoed.
Bakura recognized the voice instantly and looked toward the sound. On the shore, walking along the edge of the sand. It was Marik! But...not.

The person stood with open arms, and Bakura ran to them. He wasn't sure what to do when he got to them, but all he could think about was getting to him.
The singing stopped when Bakura got to him, and he simply looked at him.

"You're..." Bakura was astonished. "You're here."

"Yes, I am. I'm here, Bakura."

Without a moment's hesitation, he pulled him close and locked lips with him. Their arms wrapped around each other and there was quite a...heated makeup session to follow.

***

Marik was snuggled in his blankets, peacefully sleeping. He had his thumb in his mouth, and he was so comfortable.
He didn't feel like waking up, because after today, he'd be human for the rest of his life. He couldn't wait to finally spend time with Bakura, and perhaps...finally tell him how he felt.

The knocking on his door woke him up. "Marik! Marik! Marik!"
Marik sat up and stretched as Yugi shook him. "You've gotta see this! It's the most wrong-est thing to happen since Yugioh GX!!!"

Marik rubbed his eyes and wondered what Yugi was talking about.

Yugi couldn't find the words to describe the messed up situation, so he grabbed his hand and yanked him out of bed, and almost yanked in his arm off in the process.
He dragged him downstairs and to the living room, and Yugi made him hide behind a corner with him, so they didn't see anything that was happening. He whispered, "Just listen."

"So, you're the one who rescued Bakura?" Yami asked and a mysterious voice, which Marik recognized as his own, responded:

"Yes, I am. Bakura's actually really light."

"Oh, shut up, you." Bakura smirked and kissed him again. An extremely intense make out session occurred once more (I really have to work on writing kissing scenes).

Joey was disgusted. "Get a room, you two!"

Marik couldn't see what was happening, but he wasn't.......well, he wasn't THAT stupid. He could feel the tears in his eyes. He knew it was Bakura kissing whoever it was.

"Marik, wait!" Yugi called after Marik, who ran. He was running somewhere, and he wasn't sure where. It didn't matter.
He didn't care.

Melvin knew that Marik had seen, and he couldn't help the smile that grew on his face. All is going according to plan. He thought.

"Oh, I forgot to ask your name..." Bakura broke away, and Yami was astonished.

"YOU DON'T KNOW HIS NAME!?!?!?!?!??"

"Melvin."

Bakura thought of the canoe ride with Marik. "Interesting name..." It barely came out as a whisper.
