The End Of Rivalry

Chapter 4: The Phone Call

I do NOT own any of the characters (except Isabella) or items used throughout the story.

Before you read the fic: This story takes place during the Axess series. A few things I've changed for the sake of this story is the fact the Megaman is Lan's twin brother Hub (wasn't in the anime) and that Dex and Yai are staying in DenTech.

ON WITH THE FIC!

Yai shut the door to her room as soon as her body got through. She placed her bag next to her desk and slowly looked around the room. Everything seemed to match in her room: the crème-coloured walls, the hardwood flooring and the pink carpeting, the pink and yellow queen-sized bed, and the golden laptop. Yet, everything seemed to change at this moment, to be so different. It was probably her racing thoughts, but the colours seemed to fade away to darkness.

"Miss Yai," Glyde's voice broke the silence and broke Yai out of her sudden funk. "I suggest you –"

"Call Chaud," Yai finished her Navi's sentence. "I know, Glyde. In fact, I was just about to do that."

Yai brought her PET into view and brought up the phone menu, selecting Chaud's number and waiting for him to answer. The screen soon showed Chaud.

"Hey Yai," he said in his usual stuck-up tone. Yai blushed at his sight, her heart tripping as well.

"Hey Chaud," she replied, her voice containing a slightly dreamy tone. "What did you want to talk about?

"About this whole thing," he began in a more serious tone. "Look, is it okay if we talk in person?"

"O-okay," Yai agreed, her face on fire.

"Alright. And Yai?"

"Yes?"

"You're face is really red. You sick? Or did you try to cover up that big forehead of yours with some tomatoes?"

Yai growled slightly.

"I'm fine. Thank you very much," she said angrily.

"Okay. Meet me in the park in five minutes?"

"Fine.

Yai hung up with a large sigh.

"Miss Yai, is something wrong?" Glyde inquired, concerned.

"Yes Gylde, I'm fine," she assured her Navi. "It's just… so weird…"

"What is it?"

"It's just that… whenever I see him, my heart beats faster… and my chest hurts…"

"Miss Yai, it seems you are lovesick."

"What are you trying to say, Glyde?"

"I think you may be in love with Chaud."

"What? In love with Chaud?"

"I'm sorry if offended you, Miss."

Yai clenched slightly, slowly putting her PET to her waist.

"I know I like him… but love? It can't be! He's such a jerk, and he only cares about himself!" she lied to herself. "But he's so handsome, and how can I say he's selfish when he's always out there helping others?"

She shrugged and headed outside.

Wow. I'm soooo sorry that I took this long; I've just been so busy with school and exams are coming up very soon.

That's the only excuse I have. You guys are so awesome and I would never leave you hanging. Chapter 5 and maybe 6 later tonight.
