Dun...Dun...Dun... Cue OCC Yaya because that's what she's going to be like at the start of my new fic. But don't worry, Kuukai always have a way to revert her back to her old self! Please enjoy!
I do not own Shugo chara.
Useless
Yaya had never felt so useless until her fellow former guardians have graduated and when she could do nothing to help Kairi, Rikka and Hikaru catch the X-egg. She would even go as far to say that her chara transformation is useless too. Because of that, the guardians have a harder time cleansing the X-eggs than when Amu and the others were here. This is when Yaya felt useless.
Kairi had also bluntly pointed out that Yaya couldn't do anything to help. Sure, he may have become close friends with Yaya but he couldn't help but point out the truth to everyone. Kairi's comment had really hurt as it came from someone who is the closest to Yaya at the moment since she hadn't met the former guardians for some time.
She had already talked to Tsukasa about it and requested to resign from the guardians. Tsukasa was hesitant in letting Yaya go but advised her to consider it before giving him the answer tomorrow. There wasn't anything to consider, really.
"Yo, Yaya. Long time no see." Kuukai greeted as he stepped out of his middle school.
Kuukai…how long has it been since she last saw him. If she remembers correctly, it was when Amu and the others graduated. It was then she realized she is walking past Seiyo middle school, the opposite of the direction she wanted to walk to.
"Hi…bye." Yaya said and turned around to walk in the right direction.
Kuukai frowned at her odd behavior and decided to follow her. "What's wrong Yaya? You seemed out of it. Did something happen recently?"
"No…nothing. Yaya is just tired and wants to go home." Yaya said.
"Hmm…if you say so, let me walk you home then." Kuukai said, determined to find out whatever is wrong with Yaya.
Yaya shook her head, "Yaya wants to walk home by herself. Bye bye." She said and started to walk faster.
But that only made Kuukai walk faster too. "Okay, by that sentence, I can tell something is very wrong here. What really happened? Why won't you tell me?" Kuukai asked.
"Nothing happened, okay? Yaya is just too tired to walk and talk at the same time."
"But you're always energetic." Kuukai pointed out.
"How would YOU know? From the past year we've been together for only a short while before not meeting each other until now? Look, Yaya is REALLY tired and wants to be alone right now. There's a lot on Yaya's mind." Yaya clarified.
"I'm really sorry…" Kuukai apologized.
Yaya shook her head, "There is no need for apologies. Just leave Yaya alone for now."
"I won't." Kuukai said stubbornly.
Yaya whipped around, "What?"
"I said I wouldn't leave you alone." Kuukai said.
"Kuukai, stop this. Yaya's head really has a lot of things and Yaya needs some time alone." Yaya glared, "And Yaya doesn't want Kuukai to be with Yaya right now and a few more years wouldn't change anything either."
"Yaya…"
Yaya huffed and walked away, heading towards her house.
-x-
After reaching home, Yaya immediately changed into her pajamas without bathing. She just doesn't feel like doing anything right now. Everything is a mess. She wanted to resign but she was afraid of being alone. She wanted to be with Kuukai but she was afraid of him leaving again.
Yaya really hates this… Yaya thought as she started to cry. Cry…whine…that's all Yaya is good for. What else can Yaya do?
"I knew I was right to follow you." Kuukai said from behind her, his arms wrapping around her shoulder.
Yaya jumped in shock and whipped around to face him. "W-Why are you on Yaya's balcony!"
"I couldn't sleep until I help you resolve your problem." Kuukai said.
"You don't have to, Yaya can do this by herself." Yaya said stubbornly.
"Are you even listening to what you're talking about? Yaya, you hated being alone and you always trust your friends to help you with your problems. Why the sudden change now?" Kuukai asked.
"What friends? Kairi? He had already said Yaya is useless anyway so who else can Yaya find help from?"
Kuukai frowned, "Kairi said you are useless?"
"Yaya already knows without him saying it!"
"Yaya…you know that that's not true." Kuukai said.
"Whatever, Yaya knew you would say that." Yaya said, "Yaya is thinking of resigning from the guardians."
Kuukai's eyes widened, "What? Why?"
"Isn't it obvious? What could Yaya do there other than being a burden? Kairi has to constantly protect Yaya from the X-eggs."
"But being a guardian isn't just about cleansing X-eggs." Kuukai pointed out.
"I know, we also help the student but Yaya hasn't been successful in helping any of them." Yaya said.
"That's because you're not cut out to help people by yourself. You're the kind who is able to make people want to help you then you can accomplish your duty with them. Not everyone can do stuff by themselves." Kuukai said.
Yaya frowned, "You're making it sound like Yaya is really useless."
"That's not true…I never thought that you were useless." Kuukai said, ruffling her hair. "Now give me a smile and stop talking like those X-eggs or else I'm staying here for the night."
"So all I need to do is smile and you're going to go?"
"I could stay longer if you want but if I stay over, Kaidou is going to give me hell. But if you're still upset, then it's worth it."
Yaya smiled, "Thanks."
"Good girl, I know you wouldn't want me to get tortured by Kaidou." Kuukai grinned.
"Kaidou-nii isn't that bad. He's just tired of Kuukai being annoying." Yaya pointed out.
"Hey! Why are you taking his side?"
Yaya laughed, "Because Yaya knows how much you always disturb Kaidou-nii so that he would play soccer with Kuukai when no one is available. And Kaidou-nii told Yaya that you're always making him angry."
"It's the other way round!" Kuukai protested.
"He also said that Kuukai always pushes the chores to him." Yaya said.
"That's because I'm very sure that he cheated on our game of rock paper scissors!"
Yaya blinked, "Yaya knows that it's not possible to cheat on the game of rock paper scissors." Yaya pointed out.
"I swear he is cheating!"
