Before you start reading this, I want you to know that yes, im very late, but hopefully that doesn't matter. Anyways this is a Skyshipping Fanfic (Yuma x Kotori/Tori) and it takes place during the Yuma vs barian period.

Chapter One: Not So Casual Anymore...

It was a pretty casual Thursday in Heartland Secondary, Mr. Kay was blurting out math equations only half the class paid attention to and the room was moderately filled with conversation. On top of it all, a boy with red, spiky hair was fast asleep, lying down on his red D-Pad. Next to him was a girl with green hair being held together by a small red ribbon, only now noticing of the boy's lack of... well, being awake. She whispered,

"Wake up Yuma.."

The boy stayed still and silent, she whispered again,

"Wake up..."

This time, instead of whispering, she pinched his cheek and pulled it up, allowing a loud shriek of pain to come from the boy, loud enough for the whole class to hear. The class chuckled at him before Mr. Kay got them to quiet down.

"Hey! What was that for?!" said Yuma,

"Why didn't ya just whisper for me to wake up?!"

"You think I didn't try that beforehand? Plus the exams are coming soon and taking down these notes are vital to passing them!"

"Why are we even learning about this stuff anyway?"

Yuma asked as he was logging in to his school account on his D-Pad, Tori replied with,

"You know, you should try to go to sleep before midnight, it would really help you pay attention in class,"

"Well I'm soorry, it's not my fault I don't feel like going to sleep,"

Tori sighed at Yuma's hopelessness, in a way, it made him kinda cute, one of the reasons that Tori made friends with Yuma.

A few hours later, Yuma and Tori decided that they go to Yuma's house to study for the upcoming history test. On the way there, Yuma groans and says,

"If only dueling was an actual subject, then school wouldn't have to be so boring,"

"Even then, you would still get bad grades,"

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean!?"

Tori giggled to Yuma's reaction. The two went silent for a while. A butterfly then fluttered in front of them, Tori let out a big smile and started to chase the butterfly. Yuma decides to keep at his own pace and watch. Tori laughed in joy as she jumped around, following the butterfly's trail through the sidewalk. Yuma couldn't help but feel contented watching his best friend this way, hell, he might even have blushed a little bit.

"Come on Yuma, are you gonna join me or not?" Tori called out. Yuma smiled cheerily and caught up with her, now both of them chasing around the butterfly. These were one of the few times the two would have their 'moments'. When both of them were having fun together, they would grow closer together too. Knowing that one of them would be having fun would make the other one glad.

As they chased the butterfly through the sidewalk, the butterfly made a manoeuvre that tricked both of them into bumping into each other. Yuma, having the greater momentum, tripped both of them down, Yuma landing on top of Tori. When they landed, they both looked at each other and laughed in contempt, you could tell that they both enjoyed their 'moment' together. As the laughter slowly died out the two of them were looking straight at each other's eyes, not with joy, but with passion, as if both of them were in a trance with each other. It was a rather romantic moment until it was broken up by both of them standing up and clearing their throats.

"That was a... little awkward," Yuma uttered

"Yeah, let's just get to your place and start studying for this thing."

"Yeah, let's do that,".
