"What's this big important business that Atemu-kun, Jounouchi-kun, and Honda-kun can't participate in, Anzu?"
She had dragged him to Burger World the minute the bell rang, leaving their three other friends behind to their cleaning duty. Normally they would wait for them, but today, Anzu had insisted that they had something to talk about - and judging by the urgent tone of voice and his own experience, it definitely wasn't anything to look forward to at all. He kind of wished he had cleaning duty as well.
"Two combo ones please," she ordered when the waitress came to their table, without bothering to look at the menu. Well, Yuugi wouldn't say no to that.
"Anzu?"
"All right, Yuugi, fess up."
He gave her a confused look.
"What's going on between you and Atemu?"
Yuugi was even more puzzled. "Huh? Nothing?"
"Don't play stupid, Yuugi."
"But I really don't know where you're going with this!"
She gaped. "You mean you don't notice anything at all?"
"No?" He blinked. "Should I?"
Anzu sighed. "Yuugi, what's Atemu to you?"
"We're friends? Like you and I, like Jounouchi-kun and I, like Honda-kun and I?"
She resisted the urge to fall head first on to the table. Luckily, the waitress appeared with their food and she vented by taking a large bite out of her hamburger, almost choking when she tried to swallow. Yuugi pushed the drink closer to her, and after a moderate gulp she calmed down.
"Yuugi," she resumed, her half-finished burger forgotten on the tray. Yuugi grimaced; he wanted to eat without any interrogation. "Have you ever entertained the idea that Atemu likes you?"
He choked. What in the world-
She sighed again. "I guess not."
"Anzu," he laughed uneasily, "what are you talking about? Atemu-kun? You can't be serious."
"And what part of this am I getting wrong?" She challenged, her thumb raised to bring up her first point. "Don't you notice how he hovers around you? Protect you from bullies even though he has a height disadvantage as well? Bring you homemade lunches? Make every single probable excuse to stay with you as long as possible? Walk you home even if he doesn't live in the same direction?" Her list seemed endless, and two hands weren't enough - not that that stopped her from continuing. "And!"
Yuugi winced. Whenever Anzu said it like that, he was in for the worst punch.
"What about that time when we had a sleepover at your place? Who was the one who teamed up with you just so you didn't get pelted with pillows?" Here she took a moment to reflect. "From Atemu, that's a rather lame excuse; we never get hurt while pillow-fighting..."
"Anzu, you've got it all wrong."
She flared up again. "Then prove it to me, Yuugi. I'll give you...a month to observe Atemu's actions towards you. And if by the end of that one month you can swear on your grandfather's life that Atemu is still just a friend, then I'll treat you to a month of hamburgers. However, if you can't..."
He gulped as he felt her aim an aura of evil and frost to envelop him. "Yes?"
"Then I get the first picture of you two kissing."
