Our story starts off with a…….*SMACK*

"Ow! What the heck Yula!?" Yuko says as he rubs the smack mark on his face.

"Oh so it's my fault you fell asleep in class?" Yula says angrily as she holds her whacking stick, only used when she's angry.

"I was tired alright! I didn't have a nice nap!"

"Because you were staying up all night trying to 'perfect your deck'" Yula says as she mimics what Yuko said from yesterday, just more annoying.

"I really was trying to do it! I have to be at the top of my game if I want to win!" Yuko wines.

"Well you could've at least kept it down for everyone else! Kotochi told me that you were keeping him up all night while trying to make a freakin' deck!" Yula says as she whacks Yuko on the head again. "I could even hear you from my room and I'm at the end of the hallway!"

"Well I'm sorry!" Yuko says as he rubs the concussion on his head. "But you know I'm loud when I'm making a deck!"

"You know what, I don't have time for this. We need to get to our academy's assembly. Now!" Yula says as she drags Yuko with her by the ear.

"Ow ow ow!" Yuko says as he tries to get away from her grasp.

"There you guys are!" Kotochi says as he jogs towards us. "I thought something happened to you guys!"

"Sorry for coming late. Yuko and I," Yula says as she picks up Yuko from the ground, "had a little talk. Isn't that right Yuko?"

"Yeah, a little talk," Yuko says a he glares at Yula. Yula glares back.

"Anyways," Kotochi says, trying to change the topic. "We should get back to the assembly. It's about this year's Academy Wars matchup!"

"Really!" Yuko says as he is suddenly filled with energy and rushes into the assembly room.

"What a weird kid," Yula says, nodding her head side-to-side.

"I know you like Yuko," Kotochi whispers to Yula.

"No I don't," Yula whispers back, starting to blush. "I hate him..."

"Lies. All lies. I know you're just playing that hard-to-get strategy," teases Kotochi.

"NO I'M NOT!" roars Yula, starting to grab her whacking stick.

"Yeah yeah, okay, I'll play your little game," Kotchi chuckles.

"Let's...let's just get back to the assembly," Yula mutters as she slowly walks into the room.

"You're blushing!"

"SHUT UP!" Yula says as she whacks Kotochi in the head.

As the two enter the assembly room, Yula thinks to herself, "Do I actually love Yuko ?"
