Akisolarwing68: Thank you for the people who reviewed. This story would have been posted yesterday, but unfortunatelly my bro had to have a sleepover with some of his friends (basically playing a children's card game) we (including me) lost track of time so we had to sleep at 3:05am. But as promised, I posted.
For the reviewers who reviewed the previous chapter:

Link Between Time
The Party Invitation Part 2
"Hey Aki, where do you want me to put these bags?" I said. After arriving shortly after the New Domino City Mall, we've decided to take a small break from all that walking before we actually put everything up.
"In your room of course, take those as souviniors for when you go back home, okay" she said. "Hey, do you want a bit of a treat?"
"Sure, I'd love some. Thank you"
"Alright, I'll be right back"she said as she went into the kitchen.
"Man, I'm beat" as I sat on the couch. "...But I'm glad I got to enjoy being with my mom...wish Yuthel was here, but he probably wouldn't like the fact that we went shopping"
'You miss home, honey?' appearing beside me.
"Yeah...I'm pretty sure you do too. But I wonder if how are we ever going to go home?"
'We'll figure something out honey. We just haven't looked yet'
"...Yeah" just then Aki came back from the kitchen, holding two cups of ice-cream and two spoons.
"Here, its vanilla flavored" as she handed me the cup. She took a sit next to me and started eating her ice-cream. "Oh, I forgot. Yusei called and said for us to go over there to visit"
"Just to visit?" I said. Mostly people wouldn't just come over there just to have a friendly talk, that would be weird. Even for me.
"Sure? Now finish your ice-cream so we could go. Maybe you could wear one of your clothes" she said, although I could have sworn I saw a small smirk forming on her face.
"What's that look for?" I said.
"What look? I don't see anything" pretending like she doesn't know.
'I think she's schiming something, honey'
"Yeah...I think so too" I said in a whisper and continued eating the rest of the ice-cream in silence.
"Come on Rua, you don't want to be late, do you?" the green-haired girl said.
"Wait just a second Ruka, I'm almost finished with this level" Rua said.
"Come on Rua" she was really getting impatient now. She saw the cord to the game. Well if you won't stop him then that will. With that she pulled the cord and the game immidietly turned off.
"What! What happened! My video game!" Rua said. "I was almost close in beating Tenpai!"
"Oh get over it already, and hurry up and change" she said.
"...Okay" as he walked to his room to change. Seriously, its hard to come up with a way to get him to do something. Even if it means turning off his games.
"I knew it! And I will not put on that dress!" I said coawering on a nearby corner. After I had finished my ice-cream, she had told me to go to her room unfortunately. But when I got there, she suddenly picked out a dress! It was a tight fitting black dress.
"Oh come on, you'll look great in it, I asure you" she said, her eyes gleeming of evil.
"No, no, no! You put it on instead, I will not wear that dress!" I said. Over my dead body!
'Honey, why not wear it? It'll look good on you...especially for Crow' he snickered.
'That will just make it worse on me! Urgh...is there anyway on passing through this situaton?...Oh wait there's one!' I thought.
"Why not you put it on yourself? It'll look good on you...especially for Yusei's taste" I said. I saw her body began to stifen, looking rather shocked. Bingo.
"W-w-what are you talking about? T-that is none of your business" she said, trying to keep her cool...well trying too at least.
"Well I don't know about you, but I'm just going over now to my room. So if you'll just excuse me-" almost close to the door.
"Wait" she said not looking up.
"What is it?" Was it something I said? Well of course, I probably hit a sensitive spot to make her feel this way.
"...Please don't say..that to Yusei" she said looking down. Well whatever the case was, if it really made her that way, then I won't.
"I won't Aki. Just let's this keep it a secret, okay?"
She turned and nodded with a small smile on her face.
"But...if you really, really, want me to keep it a secret, please don't let me wear that dress" I practically pleaded.
"Alright, but just for today" she said. "Now let's get dressed, and hurry over to Yusei's"
"How much do you think they'll take anyway?" said a grumpy Jack. He, unlike the rest, was sitting on the chair, drinking his coffee.
"I'm sure they'll come Jack, I already called Aki to come just a few minutes ago" Yusei said while setting up the table along with Crow.
"And somebody said they didn't want to have a party" the carrot-top mumbled.
"What did you say!" the blonde said.
"What you heard!" Crow said.
"Both of you calm down, we need to settle down before they-" but he was cut-off by the door opening.
"Yusei!" the twins said.
"Rua, Ruka, you came" the raven-haired duelist said as he went up to them.
"Of course we did Yusei" the boy said. "We wouldn't miss it for the world, how could we when we have a new friend with us. With the help of Crow of course"
"What?" said Crow who was a bit flustered.
"Good luck Crow, we're ruting for you" both twins said with a thumbs up.
"W-w-what! What are you kids saying? You're too young to be saying those things infront of adults" Crow said.
"Hmph, they are right Crow. These kids know what's going on here" Jack said.
"Shut up Jack! What about you? Why don't you make a move on Carly? Or are you afraid to lose her again just like from the Dark Signer event?"
"Crow, I don't think you should have-" Yusei said, but it was too late. For Jack had already grabbed Crow from his shirt and lifted him up, already enraged.
"What do you know, huh? What could you possibly know how I felt at that time!" Jack said.
"Uhhh...tch"
"You don't, huh? So quit acting like you know, because really you don't!" with that he tossed Crow near the wall and left the room.
"Crow, are you alright?" Yusei said along with the twins.
"Yeah...I'm fine. Just a bit bruised up, but nothing that serious" he said.
"We're sorry Crow. If we haven't have brought that up, none of this would have happened" Rua said.
"Na, don't worry. In reality, it was my fault that I even brought that up. I mean, not considering Jack's feelings"
"What you did there was wrong Crow. You should of thought it through before you blurted out something you didn't wanted to say" Yusei said.
"I know...Look, can we go back to the party? I don't want none of this to ruin Sinclair's arrival party" the blackwing duelist said. "I mean there won't be much time before they arrive"
"You're right" he said. "Rua, Ruka, why don't you help me put on some snacks on the table?"
"Sure thing Yusei" leaving Crow by himself.
"What's wrong Aki? You've been quite after we left your house, what's up?" I said.
"Well...No, nothings wrong, forget it" she said.
"You know...someone told me, if somethings really wrong with you, you should let it out. You know, to cleanse your body and stuff"
"Well...it's about"
"It's about what?" I said.
"...Yusei" though I could see a bit of pink on her cheeks.
"If its about what I said in your house, forget it okay. I really didn't mean what I said" Me and my big mouth.
"No, your right...And I've been thinking...when you said you'll keep it a secret. I felt that maybe we could be best friends, you know from now on I mean" she said.
"You want me to be a best friend to you?" I said.
"Yeah, why not. You and me are sort of alike you know" she said. Well duh, I'm your daughter!
"Yeah, I guess you could put it that way" scratching my head.
'Honey, it looks you have a friend, too bad its your mom' Felgrand snickered.
I paid no attention to him for right now. All I could think about, how glad I was able to come here after all.
"We're here" Aki said.
Everyone saw us and greeted us as we desended further into the garage. The twins were the first to give me a hug.
"Sinclair-neechan! You came!" Rua said.
"What's all the sudden formalities now?" I said.
"We just wanted to now officially make you into one of our new member in our group" this time Ruka saying.
"Me? Part of your group?"
"Yep, that's why Crow made you this party for you coming here in New Domino City" Rua said.
"Is it true Crow?" I said looking at him.
"Yeah..well now that your here, why don't we start the party!" he said giving a shout to the other crew members. Though by the looks of it, he didn't seemed quite happy about it.
Through the rest of the party, everyone was enjoying the party, exept Crow of course. Aki had fallen on a pie that Jack had secretly put on the floor. Before I even had the chance to tell her to watch out, she had already fallen head-straight into it. But Aki took her revenge of course. She had thrown Jack's coffee onto his wheel of fortune, covering it with coffee stains.
Yusei was helping Aki getting her face cleaned, although they soon both had to wipe yet another, but this time Jack had thrown a set of multiple types of pies right in each of their faces. Soon both the twins decided to join in on the 'supposively' pie fight. But of course, I decided to let low on this one.
I had went outside for a bit of fresh air. But when I went outside, Crow was there siting looking at the stars. It was already night.
"Why are you out here Crow? Shouldn't you be inside with the rest of the gang?" I said. This situation reminded me alot like that night before I came here. But this was vise-versa.
"I...just wanted to be here, enjoying the cool breeze and the set of stars that are out here" he said.
"Well wouldn't you be rather enjoying yourself though, instead of being alone?"
"Well, your here. Meaning I'm not really alone now, aren't I?" he smirked.
"You must be mistaken, I just went outside to just get some fresh air nothing more" feeling a bit of heat on my cheeks.
"Don't worry, I was joking" he said.
"Tch, don't play around with me,you know"
"Sorry, sorry, its just..." he began. "Its just I've been thinking alot of things lately"
"Like what things?" My heart begining to race a bit.
"Like...that silly arguement I had with Jack. Although I still don't consider it to be silly..."
"Just an arguement?" I said, feeling my hopes up for nothing. "So what was the arguement about anyway?"
"I would rather not talk about it...besides, moments like these you musn't ruin" he said.
What...What! Moments like these, you musn't ruin? Could it be what I think it is!
"W-w-what do you mean?" trying to keep it cool.
"Like..." he said, getting rather close to me. Our faces were inches away, each feeling each other's breath. Almost closing the gap...
"Crow! Come join us! Aki's about to throw eight pies at once to Jack!" Rua said. Not before long, regaining our composior and breaking away from each other quickly. "Huh? What were you doing out here anyway?"
"Uh n-nothing Rua, we were just talking. R-right Sinclair?" he said.
"Uh, y-yeah!" although a bit flustered for answering quickly.
"I'll be right there Rua, Sinclair do you want to see?" he said.
"No, I'll stay here for a bit longer" I said.
"Well alright" as he pated my head and soon left.
"That...touch" I said.
"Huh?" I could feel images of Sinclair soon coming towards me. But what are these? How come...I suddenly know Sinclair?...Who is really Sinclair?
Akisolarwing68: Cliffhanger, unfortunatelly. Why are images soon revealed in Crow's mind? Will he know who Sinclair truely is? Stay tuned to fine out. [A word for the following people who read this, the story Link Between Time and Crystal Hearts will be sort of on stand-by, due to the fact that soon by next week me having school. So until then, I'll try to update, when I have the time. (Going to be a senior this week!)]
