"Akii!" Sounded through out the halls making a bunch of heads turn to see a girl with comical glasses race down the hall. She stopped at a open locker that was being occupied by a dark burgundy hair girl who was rummaging through her locker.
"What's up Carly." The girl greeted after closing her locker and facing the girl who was recovering from her run.
"I- I wanted to know if you wanted to come downtown with me. I was going to take some photographs." The girl said holding up her camera at the last part to verify her statement.
The burgundy hair girl nodded her head adjusting the strap to her bag. "Sure it sounds fun."
"Great!" Carly yelp jumping back onto her feet with a smile. "Let's go Akiza!"
Akiza giggled at her friends antics nonetheless followed the dark haired girl out the doors of their school.
"How'd your last set of photos go? Did your club like them?" The paler of the two girls asked walking down the cement path where other teens their age.
"No they didn't. You know that one girl with the weird hair, yeah she said the photos were a blur and couldn't even make out what I photographed." The other girl responded with a sigh. "I'm hoping with the photos I take this time, I can shut her up."
"Hopefully." Akiza hummed looking side to side on the road cross way before walking with Carly at her side.
The two girls walked the rest of the way in a comfortable silence taking in the scenic view of the downtown of their city. Carly clicked rapidly at her camera like a tourist would while Akiza stood by her side letting her eyes bounce off everything she saw. She's been here plenty of times with her best friend; always seeing the boutiques filled up, small restaurant owners passing flyers out, cars zooming fast up and down the street, and children from middle or elementary school walking to the park or arcade. Nothing was different in her honey brown almond shaped eyes.
"Akiza quick, look!" Carly squealed in delight grabbing the girl by the wrist and dragging her down the street toward a crowd of only a few guys and girls that were assembled by a shop's parking lot.
The smooth purr of an engine rang through the air along with ooh's and ahh's by the crowd.
'That's new.' Akiza thought once they reached the crowd.
She and Carly stood on their toes peering over a few heads and shoulders but only getting glimpses of shining red and white.
"Aw come on, I wanna get through." The dark haired girl practically screamed trying to push through the small crowd but got pushed to the ground.
"Hey look there's a small space." Akiza whispered to her friend before grabbing her arm and dragged her to the small entrance.
Once they forcefully got through they ahhed as the crowd had done. To Akiza it was something new and foreign to her. It wasn't a car or truck of any kind that purred so smoothly but a motorcycle painted red with a unique frame design. Beside the red bike was a white one on its kickstand that looked more unique. The one thing that stood out more than the two unique bikes was the man that sat calmly on the shinning red bike. He was too busy scrolling through his phone to pay attention to the crowd, he unexpectedly gathered, asking questions about his bike or the other or even questions of if he were someone famous since he had appeared too cool to be a resident. He somehow gave off a mysterious vibe that Akiza felt weirdly attracted to.
The small clicks of the dark hair girl's camera brought a blushing Akiza back into reality.
"This one looks really good!" Carly mumbled pausing her picture taking to go through her camera. She moved the device close enough for the other girl to see. "See."
"They look clear." The pale girl muttered trying not to stare up at the man even if his back was the only thing she saw.
"Aye, out my way."
String of curses erupted from the crowd after the heavy accent voice spoke aloud. Akiza and Carly stared up and noticed a blonde hair man with model like looks push through the crowd looking royally pissed off carrying a brown paper bag in his arms. He used one of his arms as a ram to push through the people who still didn't get the hint.
"Yusei, what did you go off and do?" The blonde practically screamed approaching the man in the red bike who only looked up and shrugged nonchalant.
The blonde looked more irritable by the minute with the other man's attitude. He quickly loaded up his bag into a compartment of his bike, strapped into his bike as well as the other man did, and speed off with the crowd dispersing in disappointment.
"Wow I never seen so many people making a big deal." Carly commented annoyed but resumed going though the photos she took. "But I got so many amazing shoots, look!"
Akiza looked back at the device and immediately paled at the photos. The man on the red bike at some point looked back over his shoulder staring into the camera with his cold hard stare that somehow made her heart leap with joy and embarrassment all at the same time. She never noticed his stare when she was gazing his way.
'Yusei huh?' The burgundy girl thought loving how his name came off her tounge.
