Summary:
After being saved by a second time, Ryoga Kamishiro started notice how Yuuma Tsukumo started to act weird. Why? Sharkbaitshipping. AU-Ish/OoC. Shark's PoV.

Shark's PoV
I gasped as I shot up. Panting. I rested my head on my hand, trying to calm down. I looked out the window, only to see a beautiful night sky. I see the city over head. Sighing in relief, I looked down to my lap, trying to steady my heart.
Silence.
I had that nightmare again. Kaito stole my soul only because he thought I had a Number card. Sighing in slight relief, I recalled how he was the one that rescued my soul. If it wasn't for him, then I'd...
I shook my head from those thoughts. No. I mustn't think of such things. Sighing, I softly smiled towards the city as he comes to mind.
I sat up and I decided to go for a ride my motorbike.
Hopefully, I see him.

Later
Riding by, I stopped in front of his house, asking certain people for directions. Looked up only to see light coming from the attic. Confused, I decided to check it out. I climbed up, using a ladder that I found, and took a peek in.
I almost jumped.
He is there, sleeping on a hammock, and the TV on. Confused, I listened carefully.
"Next time, on ESPer Robin:" Said a voice on the TV.
Ahh, so he was watching ESPer Robin. I had no idea he was interested in that kind of show.
Why the hell would he leave the TV on?
Suddenly...
"WHAAAAHHHH!" He jumped, and he turned to glared at me, "Would you please shut u-Shark!"
I frowned, "... I didn't say anything, idiot. That was rude to say to a friend."
"I-I didn't mean it like that! I-I... I had a nightmare, that's all..." He replied, fiddling a bit.
Silence.
I sighed, "I came to visit."
"This late? Why?" He asked.
I climbbed in, "Because. Now move over. I wanna see if that little thing can hold two people."
He shook his head, "Uhh... I-It can't... It can't even handle Akari's weight, so no..."
Silence.
"It was nice of you to visit, b-but it's the middle of the night, a-and we need sleep so we could be wide awake when we attend school. So, c-could you, please, leave?" He asked politely, looking down to his lap.
I shrugged, "Whatever. I'll see ya tomorrow, alright?"
He nodded, not looking at me, "Alright..."
Silence.
I sighed, and climbed down the ladder. Once down, I looked up only to hear the attic windows slam close.
Huh... Strange...
Oh well.
I turned away to go back home.
I'd like to hang out again.
However, he looked like he wanted to...
No.
He couldn't avoid me. He must've been merely cold. So, he wasn't being rude.
I left home to get ready for school tomorrow.
X-X-X-X
Next day
While riding to school, I turned to see him walking to school...
Walking... He must've woken up early.
I crossed his path just to stop him. I turned, smirking, "Say, where are you going?"
"Uhh... School?" He replied.
"You must've woken up early." I said, pointing out that he was walking.
He looked down, "Oh, I must get to school now! Sorry, I merely skipped breakfast! Catch ya later, Shark!"
He started to run.
Silence.
Oh well... Maybe we'll hang out after school. No big deal.
I kept walking. I'm sure he's just extra busy today. He must have a lot in mind.
I kept riding.

After School
Waiting by my motorbike, I paused only to see him there. Grinning, and hanging out with his friends.
I guess I could join them.
He then was left alone as his friends ran ahead. Huh. Why would his friends run ahead?
I walked up to him, "Hey!"
He turned to me, and his eyes widen, "Shark..."
"You wanna ride?" I asked, pointing towards my bike.
He started at my motorbike for a bit before turning down, facing away from me, "... Ooh, I'm sorry, Shark. Can't. Akari doesn't even allow me on her bike. So, no."
I shrugged, "Whatever. Wanna hang out?"
"Maybe later. I gotta... Uh... Get home to do grandma a favor." He said, not looking me in the eyes.
I frowned.
"Maybe later, k? I'm busy." He added, and started to run off.
Silence.
That's... Strange.
There he does it again.
Now I KNOW something's wrong. I frowned as he ran.
He normally stays longer to talk to me. It's almost like he's...
No.
No way.
No way in hell.
I looked at him. He doesn't look me in the eyes, and he doesn't stay long enough to talk to me.
He doesn't ignore his friends.
He doesn't run away from his friends.
He always stuck around, no matter WHAT the cost.
"Yuuma Tsukumo." I whispered. "... Why are you avoiding me?"

To be Continued
I wrote this, inspired by two things. One is a fic that I read that almost made me cry. Another is the song: Pushing me Away by Linkin Park. I find this song fits. So, I put these two together, and made these. I'm not a fan of song fics, but I decided to make one anyways.
I hope you enjoyed. :3
