Hum Along

A/N: Hello, this is my first Cardfight!! Vanguard fanfiction that I wrote. This fanfic has been inspired by the song Hum Along by Ludo, that's why some of the song lyrics has been included but I changed some of it to go well with the story. Please enjoy reading and constructive criticism is welcome!

I do not own Cardfight!! Vanguard and its characters, they belong to Bushiroad.

And the song Hum Along belongs to Ludo.

---[WRITTEN IN AICHI'S POV]---

She's an idol and I love her.

I was just a kid, and I never thought I would fall for her.

As I listen to her song, I can't help myself to hum along.

We met each other before, we were so very close. But now she's far away from me, she's distant.

You'll never hear these words, and you'll never see the movie in my head. Those words that says I love you, and the movie where you're the princess and I'm your knight. I'll always save you and then we'll fall in love and end up together. But you'll never see it, you'll never know about it.

You're always the one to infest my sleep, I always think about you every night, and sometimes think about us, our memories of each other.

The first time we met, you said your name was Kourin. You look so photogenic and tall. That's the only time we've ever talked, and until the Regional Tournaments you revealed yourself as an idol, you are so different than the first time we met. You're mysterious, and beautiful.

"This isn't right... why do I always think about her?" I mutter to myself. I tried to stop myself from thinking about her... Kourin... but I still do.

Because for me, it feels so wrong, she's an idol, I'm just a Vanguard fighter. And I don't think she'll fall for someone like me.

I could only listen to her songs, and just hum along.

I actually haven't felt that, not until we were in high school, and we became classmates. She saw me, and I felt like the whole world just stopped for a moment she approached me. I stared at her and felt like my heart was beating fast. I fell in love.

It was at our school trip and when we went to a mountain, we went to a lake. One of Misaki's friends Akari said that there's a Legendary Tree that will make two people be together if they confessed there.

I didn't expect that Kourin would bring me there; I thought she would confess, but she didn't.

There was something wrong about her, when we fought she was different than she is. I was worried.

I watched her move, breathe and cry when she ran away from me. I wanted to help her but... I couldn't.

It was the Link Joker invasion

The whole world was in danger and I have to help save the word and bring back peace. I never thought you would be reversed; I was disappointed for not being able to know you were.

I tried to save you, only to know that there's a reason why you wanted to stop me. You didn't want to lose your memories, our memories... but I stopped you, because I needed to.

The movie that was in my head got shattered, if only the invasion didn't happen, we could've ended up together, we could've done so many things.

Us being together, me as your knight and you as my princess, I would save you and help you from all your troubles. It was all of those things that I imagined.

But in the end, it's never going to happen. And I can only hope for us to meet each other again.

When the Link Joker seed was inside me, I was actually glad that you were there to help me, to stay with me. And when everything ended, I was sad that you have to go away, and never to remember the memories that we shared.

I saw you again, but you don't know me anymore. You looked at me with those eyes that clearly ask "who are you?" And although I was sad, I am glad that you went back safe.

Still, you'll never hear these words, and never see the movie in my head.

And now the only thing that I can do is to listen to you sing a song, and maybe somehow I hope you can hear me hum along.
