Yuki's POV
Tonight was a special night, it was the opening dinner for the big Grand Prix coming up, Leo, Luna and I had been invited as the guests of team 5D's so of course we were going. In a rare moment I was wearing a dress that was yellow with a long flowing bottom. Leo was in a suit and Luna her usual dress and sweater formal outfit.
"You two could have gotten dressed up you know." I looked at Yusei and Qrow "This is a formal even and you two dingdongs are dressed in grease stained mechanic wear! At least Jack dressed up even if it is gaudy."
"HEY!"
"You didn't have to come either." Crow said.
"Team manager slash back up rider definitely gets to go to this." I told him "There's Akiza."
"Hello." She walked over in a red dress.
"My you look nice." I smiled "A dress like that, trying to impress someone?"
"N-No!" she blushed a bit.
I giggled a bit "Yusei what do you think of Akiza's dress."
"Huh…it's fine." He shrugged.
"What a dense buffoon." Cleopatra sighed.
The party was starting to get more and more crowded, a lot of the big teams were here, the field was going to be very competitive this year. The rules were simple, ever match was turbo duels, you raced around and dueled against other teams to try and make it to the finals. The matches were three-man relay style, you raced one on one but tried to work through all three members of the other team before they did the same to you. So you'd start with a first Racer, than when he lost Racer Two would get on the track and he'd be the new opponent for the other team's first racer, it's not as complicated as it sounds.
The party was nice, although Yusei seemed to be in a bad mood I wasn't really sure what about but Crow said he's been like that for a while now.
"Hmm." I looked up and held my hand out while I stood in front of Leo and Luna.
"What is it?" the girl asked.
"Something it coming." I warned.
Just as I said that one of the windows shattered and a man on a spiked Duel Runner drove in. my hand being up formed a small forcefield that blocked the shattering glass. Akiza used her powers to bring her Black Rose Dragon to life and block the bike from hitting anyone, sending it back outside where the rider fled.
"Well that killed the mood." I sighed.
Later
"So you're really trying this whole Riding Exam thing?" I looked at Akiza.
"Yes, I want to see that world too, what Yusei sees in it." She hummed zipping up her pinkish red body suit.
"Geez look at that thing." Cleo growled "Showing off those oversized things that girl has no shame!"
"She's wearing more than you are right now, sides you're just as busty as she is I'm the flat one here!" I snapped.
"My outfit is made of the finest Egyptian Silk robes and headdresses, this is the outfit of my people, here's is just shameless to flirt with Yusei!" she said back.
"Sometimes you…GRR!" I growled at her.
"Ahem." Akiza coughed.
"Oh sorry ignore me and other me." I laughed "Still doing all this just to get closer to Yusei, sweetie you've got it bad."
"No I don't!" she blushed "It's not like."
"I've been around a long time Akiza." I smiled "I know love when I see it. You're taking the first step to get to know him on a more personal level, good start."
"I think it's awesome you're doing this Akiza, getting out there just like the boys!" Luna cheered.
"Well you should get going, don't worry we'll be here cheering you on." I smiled.
Later
"Alright frankly…you suck." I told her after she crashed a few times "Like…not awful but…bad, like I'd give you a D."
"Thanks for the vote of confidence." She sighed "Do you have any advice?"
"Why ask me, I'm sure if you need help you can get someone else to give it to you." I winked "Come on kids let's get home."
"Wait don't just leave me hanging like this!" Akiza yelled.
Later
"Why are we here, I feel like a third wheel." Leo said.
"We're watching be quiet." Cleo and I hissed.
"It's not a date you know." Luna told me "And when did you two get so obsessed with getting those two together?"
"We've been around a long time let us have this!" we yelled.
In an attempt to teach Akiza how to drive backwards by having her skate around in a roller rink.
"It's not a date." Luna sighed as Akiza stumbled around, falling into Yusei a few time.
"Hmm?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Okay, it's totally a date." She sighed.
"Well I think they're cute together." I smiled.
