Hey guys! Sorry for the late update, I had some issues with my internet.

Alright, I have changed the plot of the story a little. I have added some TsubasaxMadoka pairing as well due to the high demand. I hope you like it…

Enjoy!

Chapter 9:

Madoka was repairing beys when she received a phone call.

"Hello?"

"Madoka, it's me, Tsubasa. I just wanted to ensure that we are having a get together in which all our old friends are coming and Gingka and you are cordially invited."

"Oh, that's nice. And stop being so formal."

"Haha, okay. Can't wait to see you at the WBBA HQ at 6. Bye."

"Okay, bye."

Madoka hung up the phone and crawled upstairs to inform Gingka about the upcoming gathering.

"Hey Gingka, Tsubasa just called, he wanted to inform us about a gathering. It is sort of a reunion. All our old friends will be there." Madoka informed Gingka.

"Cool. Is it today?" Gingka asked. "Yes, we have to get at the WBBA headquarters till 6. So please get ready on time. Do not disappoint me this time." Madoka sighed, earning a smirk from Gingka. "Oh, I won't sweetheart." Gingka smirked.

-Time skip-

Madoka and Gingka got ready for the special get together. They both wore their signature clothes. They were quite excited about meeting up with all their old friends. Gingka didn't get the chance to meet up with his old buddies at the day of the ball due to the whole drama. He was looking forward to this meeting.

Gingka and Madoka walked to the WBBA HQ. The get together was arranged in the same hall as that of the ball, except that there were round tables and chairs. A special meal was also arranged with the refreshments on one side of the huge hall.

Meeting up with old friends was totally amazing. Gingka and Madoka parted ways to meet their buddies.

Gingka and Kyoya hugged each other as they had met after such a long time. They had to admit that they both missed battling with each other and the time they used to spend together. But their rivalry was still in action. "How is yea, buddy?" Gingka asked. "Good. You?" Kyoya smiled. "I'm good. So, how's Leone? Do you still battle?" Gingka started asking questions. "I don't battle much now. Why would I, when my rival isn't anywhere to be found." Kyoya said, indirectly, meaning that he missed Gingka and partly scolding him for not meeting up with his old friends. Rubbing the back of his head, Gingka felt embarrassed. He really had not contacted any of his old friends. They didn't even know whether he was dead or alive. Before he could say something, Kyoya spoke up. "So, what is the actual reason behind your return, Gingka?" Kyoya asked, partly knowing that the reason will be related to Madoka. "Uhh… Return? I actually missed you guys so much. I really wanted to meet you all." Gingka said, his words clearly indicating that he was not telling the truth. "Yeah, that's why you went to the WBBA first. That's why you slept at the Bey-Pit and spent your time with a certain brunette and never contacted us." Kyoya retorted. "Fine, that was the actual reason. Madoka was the reason behind my return. I did miss everyone, but most of all, I missed her. She is a very important person in my life. And I don't want to lose her at any cost. And I realized that when she was not with me." Gingka ensured. Kyoya smirked.

Meanwhile, Madoka and Tsubasa were having a little chit chat. Madoka was complementing Tsubasa over the hard work he had done to arrange the ball and the get together.

"Great job Tsubasa!" Madoka said.

"Thanks." Tsubasa blushed. Suddenly, Tsubasa felt something very unusual. Watching Madoka smile made him stare at her for long. He started to blush every time their eyes came in contact. He didn't know why this was happening. This was the very first time he felt this way. Tsubasa tried to brush his thoughts away, but he couldn't. He knew that Madoka belonged to Gingka. He can't just have random feelings about her.

Madoka waved her hands in front of Tsubasa's face. "Hey, Tsubasa, you okay?" Madoka asked, snapping him out of his train of thoughts.

"Hun? Yeah, I'm fine." Tsubasa assured.

Madoka sighed. "I'm going to meet up with the others." Madoka said, and left Tsubasa standing there staring at her.

Tsubasa was gawking at Madoka with dreamy eyes. He didn't know why he had this feeling all of a sudden. 'Her smile is so beautiful. She herself is extremely gorgeous. Gingka is so lucky to have her. Wait… why am I thinking of her like that. She is just a friend of mine. But wait, Gingka ditches her every time she needs him. He doesn't do it intentionally, but it somehow happens. Maybe, I should make a move. No, I can't ditch my friend. Gingka would be mad at me. Agghhh… this is driving me crazy.' Tsubasa thought.

"Hey Tsubasa!" Tsubasa was brought back to reality when he heard a familiar voice. It was Gingka.

"Oh, hi Gingka." Tsubasa greeted.

"What were you and Madoka talking about?" Gingka suspected.

"N-nothing, she was just complementing my work. I mean, the get together I arranged for all."

"Yeah, I have to admit you did a pretty good job." Gingka stated.

"Thanks!"

"Hey Gingka, can I ask you a question?" Tsubasa asked.

"Sure."

"What if… what if you find out that Madoka is in love with someone else…?" Tsubasa asked, afraid that the answer might be a rough one.

"She would never do that. I trust her with all my heart. If you're thinking of Masamune, Madoka just danced with him as she was bored. But she would never do that. I know that she loves me. And I…I love her more than she loves me."

"What if, someone else likes her? I mean she is pretty you know."

"I know there are thousands of men wanting to be with her. But I'm sure she doesn't even give a damn about them." Gingka ensured.

Tsubasa just didn't feel right. He thought as if the world is cheating on him. His life was so unfair. He didn't know why this happened. Why he fell in love with Madoka and didn't even know when that happened. It just happened. Love is something that happens all of a sudden. It was true that Tsubasa had always adored Madoka, but he was also aware of the fact that she loves none other than Gingka and that Madoka and himself were just good friends.

"Why are you asking such questions, anyway?" Gingka asked.

"I…I, uh… Just askin'. Tsubasa passed a fake smile.

"I'll go check on the others." Gingka said before leaving Tsubasa.

The bladers sat on the respective tables. They were served with restaurant quality food. Gingka's table was filled with burgers. Gingka, Benkei and Masamune had a competition regarding who would eat the most numbers of hamburgers. Everyone sweat dropped at this. Watching the grown up bladers acting so childish was hilarious. Gingka had forgiven Masamune for dancing with Madoka that day. He was his teenage buddy and he just couldn't be mad at him for long. Masamune didn't want to be with Madoka either, it was just that, that day he saw Madoka really sad so he offered her a hand. He had no such weird intention.

Everyone now knew that Gingka and Madoka were together now. They were inseparable and were the best couple of all. It was an ugly truth for a certain silver haired man.

Everybody had a great time and thanked Tsubasa for organizing this event.

Soon, the party ended and everyone headed back home.

What do you think? Was this good enough?

Please review.

And neil-the star of dawn: thanks for the review. I just realized that you are right. I overdid it a little. Hehe. Anyways, Masamune is not the real pairing with Madoka. I hope you got that after reading this chapter.

Until the next chapter…
