Yeah I changed my mind. This is gonna be all Crow. And... someone else. Who could it be? Only one way to find out. Read. Go on. The chapter doesn't bite. Much. :D

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's or any of it's characters. I do own the OC that's about to be shown here (seriously you still can't tell who it is? What the hell? Haven't you been paying attention?)

As he turned the wrench one last time he huffed out in strain, pulling himself up afterward. Another frame fix-up. Honestly, what were the riders doing with their runners? Well at least that meant they weren't going to run out of work anytime soon.

Today was another occasion of staying in late. And that meant him and Anna were alone, like in so many other nights. Ever since he'd started working in the garage, he'd befriended everyone. But Anna was different. There was obvious attraction from both sides right form the beggining. And as time passed, they'd joke around a bit. Sometimes the jokes would get... tense. To say the least.

He drank some water, pouring a little bit over his head to cool off. He looked to his right side to find Anna getting out from under another frame, clutching her neck and heading his way. He turned to her and was strarting to close the bottle

"Crow wait! Give me some that." He smiled at her. She seemed desperate for a bit of water. So, his ever-charming mind came up with an engenious idea.

"Sure." He hid the bottle behind his back.

"What are you doing?"

"I'll give you the water if you can take it from me." She raised an eybrow and grinned suggestively.

"You sure you want to play this game?" He moved a bit closer to her.

"Sure enough." She outright smiled (AN: an evil smile. Of Doom. Doom I tell you!) and stepped closer to him, while he kept walking backwards, until he didn't have anywhere else to go. Their bodies were separated by enough space to not make it uncomfortable, but Anna was sure to change that as she took another step towards Crow invading his personal space. He gulped almost imperceptibly, but Anna noticed.

She loved to know she could just make every man in that garage bow to her if she wanted. And Crow was no exception. She moved her face even closer to his, that same smile in her face. Crow countered with his own grin.

"Guess what?"

"What?" She reached her hand to the hem of his pants and he gulped louder his eyes widening a bit at the boldness of his friend. Then the next thing he knew she had the bottle in her hands and was taking a much needed gulp.

"I win." She grinned and moved back to work. There's no way she did that without feeling something. She can't be playing games like this. He was right. Anna wasn't the type of woman to 'play' with men like that without feeling something. But Crow didn't know that. Hell, he didn't know much of anything when she was around.

Over these past few months, he and Anna had actually gone out for a few late-dinners or early-breakfasts. They'd talk and laugh, then at around 4 or 5 AM they'd say their goodbyes and part ways. He wondered if he'd ever get to go home with her. Even if he could only take her there. Maybe someday.

-3:30 AM-

They finished their last fix-ups for the night (AN: or day I guess).

"So..." Anna raised an eyebrow at Crow.

"So?"

"Wanna go out for a burger or something?"

"Sure. Let me just go change into something more confortable and... you know... not dirty."

"I was just about to say that actually." And so they changed. A couple of minutes later, they got out, Anna closed up shop and they went to the burger stand close by.

-SO I GUESS WE'RE AT THE BURGER PLACE NOW-YEAH-

She was laughing loud and she didn't care who saw her.

"Oh my God! He did not!"

"I swear he did. One second he's screaming his head off, the second he's making a skyscraper... of boxes of ramen." She kept laughing.

"That's not the best part either. Once the guy he gave the ramen to told him he wasn't such a big fan of his favorite he just took them all back. To this day, I still wonder where he put those boxes." She gave her burger to Crow so she could fall on the grass laughing and clutching at her stomach for fear it would rip open. Crow laughed at the scene she was making.

She stopped rolling on the floor soon. He stopped laughing. She looked up at him. He looked down at her. They caught each other's gaze and smiled at the other. Oh man. I'm in love with her./Oh boy. I'm in love with him. Then Anna pointed to the sky.

"That's awesome isn't it?" Crow was confused so she patted the batch of grass beside her, inviting him sto sit down. He did and she pointed to the sky again.

"All those stars up there. They're beautiful. I wish I could just go follow them to wherever they are, just to see what they look like. Something so beautiful must be nice."

"Probably."

"What about you?"

"Huh?"

"What do you wish for."

"Oh... well for starters I'm not as ambicious as you." She nudged him.

"There's nothing wrong with dreaming is there?"

"Of course not. Anyway... I think I'd just settle for the sky. Being able to fly where I wanted, when I wanted. That's what I wish for." She shrugged.

"I guess that's pretty cool too."

"Yep." They looked at each other and smiled bright. She seemed to look at his lips for a second. He seemed to the same. They were both struggling to decide wether or not to act on their feelings. In the end... they chose not to. Even though they knew each other for almost a year now, they'd become great friends. In their minds, for now, to great to risk it. So they didn't. He gave her the burger and she took a bite out of it.

"Thanks. And... thanks."

"For?"

"Doing this. Being here with me. It's good to know I can count on you." He grinned at her.

"Anytime."

They got up and walked to the point where they'd separate for the day.

"See you tomorrow?"

"You mean today?" He chuckled.

"Yeah." She kissed him in the cheek. He stood stunned.

"Sure." She walked away. He turned around and walked to his home. Maybe he would go with her someday. Not today. But someday.

And... done. Hope you enjoyed that as much as I did. And now it's time to review, so if you could do that, please do it and I'll see you in the next chapter.
