A yawn escaped me as I woke up from my slumber. I looked out window at the sun shining brightly over the city. This all makes me think that yesterday was a dream.
"Good morning." The spirit chirped.
Boy was I wrong.
"What's so go about it?" I'm not a morning person, so I'm not in the best mood.
"Everything, the sky is blue. The sun is shining. The birds are singing…"
I drowned out the spirit's chattering and focused on what I needed to do; get out of bed, get food, and get Blizzard and Gale. I threw the covers off of me and walked over to my cloth's box so I could get dressed.
"Um, do you mind?" I said looking at Yusei.
"No, I don't mind." He waved, "You don't have to blush while getting dressed."
"Get out!"
With no food in the kitchen, I was going to get some breakfast at the little coffee place down the street. My plans were put on hold when I heard someone enter the garage. I never gave Jack a key. Oh why did I have to leave my bat at Jack's house?
"Hey, Yusei," I whispered out to the spirit who had a rather sad, no, depressed look on his face.
"Don't worry Crow, I know who it is." He said sadly. "It's Kiryu."
From the way he said his name, I could guess this Kiryu guy was someone important to him.
Yusei sighed. "How could I forget, today is our anniversary."
Hmm?
"He would always come here on our anniversaries, birthdays, and various holidays." Yusei explained. This explains why the place is clean and fully furnished. "I just want him to be happy and move on. He can't do that if he keeps coming here!"
"What about the people who lived here before me?" I wondered.
"I scare them off before Kiryu found out. He would kill anyone who steps foot on this property." Yusei said.
"K-kill. You're just exaggerating that right?" I gulped.
"No." he said. "Just don't get on his bad side."
Judging from what you said, I'm already on his bad side.
I drew in a deep breath and braved myself to go down the stairs. I was meeting with cold, murderous eyes, which froze me in place.
"Why are you here?" His voice was equally chilling.
"I-I live here." I replied.
Kiryu's gaze became colder as he walked closer to me. There had to be something I could say, anything!
"Let's go out for breakfast." Why did I have to be hungry in the morning?
Kiryu stopped in his tracks, momentarily baffled by the sudden request. "No."
"That's a great idea Crow." I heard Yusei say.
Great. Taking a murderous person with me to breakfast, wonderful.
It took a lot of convincing, but I finally got Kiryu to come with me to the coffee shop. We both sat in silence. It is kind of hard to strike up a conversation with someone you don't know and has a murderous vibe coming from them.
We were sitting outside at the picnic tables the small café had. I was avoiding Kiryu's gaze. I was happy that he didn't order anything, which meant I could keep what little money I had.
"So, my name's Crow." I said.
"I don't care." He said.
Well that stung.
"I take it that house is important to you."
"Yes." He said. "My boyfriend lived there before he died."
"May I ask what happened?" I said fearing I may have overstepped my boundaries
"He died on this day, our anniversary, in a car accident coming to see me." Kiryu down casted his eyes, "It's all my fault."
Yusei P-O-V
'It's all my fault.'
My blood began to boil when Kiryu said that. I acted impulsively and took control of Crow's body.
"It was not your fault!" I had to control the sound of my voice since we're in a public place.
Kiryu looked at me surprised and was going to say something. Before he could get out what he was going to say, I reached over the table and kissed him. Completely forgetting that I was in Crow's body!
"Crow?!"
I pushed away from Kiryu to see a tall blond guy looking very angry and disappointed. He had two birds with him; I believe to be of the Blackwing family, flew over to me chirping happy that they are reunited with Crow.
Meanwhile, the blond guy walked away without saying a word. And I was thinking about a huge mess I just caused.
A/N: Sorry if it seems short. I hope you enjoyed chapter two!
