Out of the fire

Summary: Now a one shot series from the moments of Playmaker and Blue angel in Vrains, and Yusaku and Aoi when we finally get one of those. Spoilers ahead. Bluecherryblossomshipping (I believe that is their ship name).

AN: Episode 6, AMAZING! I nearly cried at how said Aoi's life is, but I feel for her, being all alone and having nobody to love you. I will be doing another one-shot or two based off of the episode but this one is for when Yusaku and Aoi are walking to the school and this will mainly be from Yusaku's point of view. I would like to thank all of you who have reviewed, followed, favorited, and kudos my story and my others as well, means a lot. I have a friend on fanfiction.net who goes by poetrymagic12, who has been helping me out recently and if you wanna read another VRAINS fic about Yusaku and Aoi, she has one called 'Against the wind', check it out and review it, it's great. Trust me. So now on with the show and all that jazz.

Failed comfort

"Quiet! She's here." Yusaku chastised to the AI as Aoi approached him, they both stopped about a foot away from each other.

"Yusaku Fujiki, right? Good morning." Aoi greeted, the statement a cheerful one but her face looked so sad.

"Y-yeah. Good morning." Yusaku replied slightly hesitant. They just stood there together for a moment then started walking towards the school together in silence. Honestly Yusaku didn't know what to say to her. He didn't even have a plan yesterday either. Unfortunately Shoichi was right, he did have problems talking to girls.

"Why did you want to join the duel club?" Aoi asked breaking the silence.

"Because..." He didn't know how to respond, truly the only reason was because he got caught following her but he couldn't say that.

"Don't say it's because you love to duel." She interrupted. Yusaku thought this might be a good chance to change the subject and find out some information.

"What Shima said about your brother yesterday..." He started, but was once again cut off from finishing.

"You too, huh?" She questioned with a little mirth chuckle, Yusaku taken off guard by this and turning his head to fully face with a shocked look.

"'Can I get the new duel disk first?' Or 'Can I get a job at SOL when I graduate?' The only reasons why people approach me." Aoi explained, and Yusaku honestly didn't know what to say. He didn't have friends by choice. Aoi didn't have friends because they just used her.

"I..." He started, trying to think of something, anything to say that would make her feel better.

"Don't even try." She stated, stopping in her tracks, causing Yusaku to stop as well. And he indeed was going to try to say something but the look on her face told him not to. It was a look of sadness, her eyes looking ready to water.

"My brother doesn't trust me."

That sentence kept them both quiet for a moment, Aoi just stood there looking at the ground looking ready to break into tears. Yusaku stood next to her with a shocked expression and his mouth slightly opened, trying to find the right words to say. Before he could do anything supportive, Aoi bolted off towards the school,Yusaku standing in place staring after her, not sure whether or not to follow her and straighten things out.

"Hey, Yusaku." AI spoke up, bringing said boy out of his thoughts. "I need to talk to-"

"Be quiet." Yusaku instructed, slowly walking towards the school.

"Hey! Suit yourself!" AI shouted, and the rest of the walk to school was silent.
