Riley slowly woke up in Cassie's bed noticing she wasn't there with her.

"Cassie?" Riley asked sitting up.

Cassie walked in holding a breakfast tray.

"Huh?" Riley asked noticing. "What's that?"

"Your breakfast in bed." Cassie smiled handing it to her, "I tried to make it myself."

Riley looked to see a lot of butter on nearly black toast along with a lot of syrup on 3 pancakes that are a little lighter then original. Riley giggled. "Thank you."

"Tell me how it taste." Cassie smiled kissing her before walking to something, "First time ever."

Riley nodded taking a small bite of the pancakes. It tasted really sweet, and from the feel didn't taste like it's done. Riley paused and tasted the toast. Had a bit of a too much crunch, and also slippery from a lot of butter. Not also that she also tasted what seems like jam.

"Um... Cassie?" Riley asked putting the toast down. "I... don't think this is right."

"It isn't perfect." Cassie admitted not turning, "It's my first time making it."

She felt someone hug her. "It's ok."

At that she looked over. Riley was hugging her only she looked sad.

"Riri?" Cassie asked seeing that.

"I'm so sorry Cassie..." Riley whispered. "About everything you've had to do."

"It's fine Riri. Seeing you happy makes it worth it." Cassie smiled.

"How much longer do we have?" Riley asked.

"I think about a week?" Cassie suggested.

Riley nodded before smiling. "Can I do something?"

Cassie nodded hearing that.

"Ok... lie down." Riley said.

Blinking Cassie did so. Riley moved and gently pulled up Cassie's shirt before kissing around her belly button and gently blowing in it. Cassie giggled from feeling that which Riley smiled hearing her laugh before kissing Cassie's belly button. Cassie smiled rubbing Riley's head. Riley suddenly stopped. "Cassie?"

"Yeah?" Cassie asked.

"Can... we go out again?" Riley asked.

Cassie smiled to her at that. Riley smiled.

"Where, and when do you want to go?" Cassie smiled to her.

"Um... can we go to the park and get ice cream together?" Riley asked.

"Alright." Cassie smiled at that nodding which Riley smiled over before suddenly frowning. Seeing that Cassie looked confused, "Riri? Is there something wrong?"

Riley smiled gently. "I'm just sad."

"About what?" Cassie asked worried.

Riley looked down. "That... my family is hurting yours so much."

"No don't say that." Cassie said to her with a smile, "They didn't do anything to us. Now can you take off your shirt? I gotta check the bandages."

"But... it's because of us your daddy left. Declan made you hurt Yuya... it's all because of us." Riley admitted with tears as she took off her shirt.

"It's okay." Cassie smiled wiping her eyes while lowering the shoulder straps, and unwrapped the bandages.

Riley's injuries were mostly healed up there was just a small bruise. She threw the soiled bandages away before softly kissing the bruise. Riley shuddered slightly before suddenly looking down. "I... want to stop being girlfriends."

That made Cassie turn to her not expecting that. She saw Riley looked super upset, sad, and afraid. She hugged Riley from behind, "It'll be alright Riri."

Riley just started to cry. Cassie stayed before turning Riley, and knelled down, and kiss the fake stomach to see if that'll make Riley happy. Riley just started crying more. Seeing that Cassie hugged her. Riley hugged her back with tears in her eyes.

"I... don't... want to... hurt... you." she choked out.

"And you won't." Cassie assured her smiling.

"Cassie..." Riley whispered.

"Your injuries are nearly fully healed. All you have left is a small bruise." Cassie told her with a smile.

"Cass... stay here." Riley said before walking out of the room.

Cassie blinked seeing that before sitting down on her bed waiting. A few minutes later Riley came back in only she was holding a small bag.

"What's that?" Cassie asked curiously.

"I asked Mrs. Sakaki to buy it for me... it's a present for you." Riley answered.

"A gift?" Cassie asked surprised before saying, "Before you give it to me."

She placed a small bandage on Riley's back bruise before helping Riley in her shirt. Riley smiled only to suddenly pause. "Wait... Cassie what if we have to duel?"

"It's for fun Riri." Cassie told her with a smile.

"No it isn't... it's to find people to fight them." Riley pointed out. "Duel Academy."

"We're both still gonna be together in this." Cassie assured her.

Riley nodded before pausing and scrunching up her nose. Cassie blinked at that.

"I'll be right back, I need to take a shower." Riley explained.

"Okay... Oh what did you get for me?" Cassie asked her.

Riley smiled. "Promise you won't open it until I get back."

Cassie let out a cute pout but nodded. Riley giggled and kissed Cassie's nose. "If you're good I'll do something special ok?"

With that she walked out giggling more. Cassie blinked before laying down on her bed. Half an hour later Riley came back. "Cassie? You didn't peek did you?"

"Nope." Cassie smiled to her.

Riley nodded opening the bag revealing a small silver bracelet with a heart, and a four leaf clover dangling from it. Cassie blinked surprised.

"It's a charm bracelet, the heart means love because I love you, and the four leaf clover means good luck. You can add more charms that mean other things too." Riley explained.

Cassie smiled at this.

"I thought you could keep it and add charms that were for special occasions or meant special things." Riley smiled as they walked down.

Cassie smiled bright kissing her cheek as they exit. "Momma! Me, and Riri are getting Ice Cream!"

"Ok you two, have fun." Yoko smiled.

Soon they got out after that looking for the Ice Cream booth. She saw it but there was a long line.

"Oh it's really long." Cassie frowned.

"We can wait." Riley told her before suddenly shuddering and starting to tremble.

Seeing that Cassie took her hand holding it tight. She looked and noticed what looked like some kind of monster had rampaged through the park with claw marks on the ground.

"What the...?" Cassie asked shocked.

Riley was trembling and Cassie could feel her shaking worse with every passing second. Cassie hugged her close before they walked out of the park. Riley looked absolutely terrified.

"Stay with me." Cassie said to her kissing her.

"Cassie... what if they're here?" Riley asked quietly. "What if we're too late?"

"It's okay." Cassie assured her, "They wouldn't stay quiet if they are here."

Riley nodded starting to slowly calm down.

(A/N (Ulrich362): Riley hasn't been at LID, she doesn't know what's going on like she would in canon.)

That was when they founded a second Ice Cream booth as Cassie smiled walking up, "Excuse me?"

"Yes?" asked an older man.

"I would like Vanilla, and uh..." Cassie gave thought before turning to Riley, "What flavor do you like?"

Riley closed her eyes in thought. "Um... do they have Blueberry?"

Cassie looked before smiling, "And Blueberry."

"Alright, cup or cone?" the man asked.

"Cone for us." Cassie smiled pulling Riley close to her.

"Sure thing, that'll be five dollars." the man smiled over.

Cassie gives him 15 dollors, "Keep the change."

With the cones in place Cassie gave Riley the Blueberry Cone as they walked away. Riley smiled taking it. "Thank you."

Cassie smiled as they walked around, "No problem."

"Hey, you!"

Hearing that they turned over. It was the bully from when Yuya first Ritual Summoned. Seeing him Cassie started to shake, "K-Kintaro?"

Riley blinked. "Cass? What's going on?"

"T-That's Kintaro... He was the top class of the school I go too before we met, and also... The first who Yuya Ritual Summoned against." Cassie said nervously to her.

Riley nodded. "What do you want with Cassie?"

Cassie nervously turned to Kintaro at that.

"Your freak brother isn't here to help you this time, and I plan on getting payback." Kintaro told her.

"C-Can you please leave me alone?" Cassie asked nervously, "I'm doing something important."

"Not happening." Kintaro said before taking a threatening step towards Cassie.

Cassie stepped back looking like she's about to scream. Riley noticed before frowning. "Leave Cassie alone!"

Hearing that they turned to her. Riley looked mad. "I said, leave. My. Girlfriend. Alone!"

"What you gonna do about it fatty?" Kintaro smirked.

Riley glared at him before taking a duel disc out of her bag she was carrying.

"Riri what are you-?" Cassie asked shocked at this.

"Standing up for the person I love." Riley answered. "I'm standing up for you."

"So you like that coward there?" Kintaro glared, "For daring to insult the famed LID after her spineless father chickened out?"

"Cassie was right to say that, the Sledgehammer doesn't deserve his title." Riley told him.

"It's Lame-sho that doesn't deserve it if he chickens out like that." Kintaro said getting ready, "For that I hope your ready for a humilulating defeat that your fat belly won't help you get up from."

Riley frowned. "Ladies first?"

"Real Duelists." Kintaro smirked.

Kintaro 1st Turn:

Kintaro drew looking over before smirking, "I activate Polymerization."

Cassie started to shake seeing it. Riley frowned seeing that. "It's ok Cassie, I won't let anything bad happen to you."

"Well it gets real here cause I'm summoning Grinder Golem to your field." Kintaro grinned as a golem appeared in place at Riley's field.

"Thousand-Eyes Restrict's ability only works when it would be destroyed in battle." Riley told him.

Kintaro glared.

"Huh?" Kintaro asked before the attack struck.

Kintaro: 0000

Winner Riley.

Riley was glaring at him. "Now leave Cassie alone."

Kintaro glared at her at this before Cassie took her hand pulling her with her. Riley let her drag her away. "Are you sure you're ok Cassie?"

"Riri... You didn't need to do that." Cassie told her worried.

"I... I wanted to protect you." Riley admitted. "To keep you safe."

At that Cassie hugged her. Riley hugged her back. They walked to where they see another park was there as she smiled taking Riley with her as they sat down to the bench. Riley smiled at that.

"Riri?" Cassie asked her.

"Yeah?" Riley asked.

Cassie laid down on the bench with her head in Riley's lap with a smile. Riley smiled and gently rubbed Cassie's head at that. Cassie looked up to Riley smiling. "I love you Riri."

"I love you too Cass." Riley smiled kissing her forehead.

Cassie smiled before getting up as they walked out of the park back to the Sakaki house.

Ulrich362: Well... things seem to be mostly ok.

bopdog111: Cass sure did gave her piece of work good upgrades.

Ulrich362: True, very true.
