(Y/N) yowled in pain when a rock scraped her ankle while running.

"Dang!" She muttered, ignoring her bleeding ankle.

(Y/N) was losing a lot of blood, she became dizzy and her lung pressure decreased.

She collapsed.

• • •

"(Y/N)," a voice called out to her.

"(Y/N)," it repeated.

The girl gasp in shock as she sees a worried Free De La Hoya.

"Free?" She says, trying to catch her own breath.

"Thank gosh you're okay," Free let out, relieved.

He put his hand on Y/N's forehead as she winced. Free's hand was really cold, probably because he carried her all the way to his place.

"You're heating up," Free removes his hand and gets a cold towel to place it on Y/N's head.

"Free.. what happened..?" Y/N mutters, clenching her undershirt.

"You passed out in the rain, and I so happened to be on a rain jog," Free shrugged as he placed the cold towel on her.

"Ah... thanks," Y/N gently smiles as she lays back down on Free's bed.

"No problem," Free returns the smile as he leaves the room for the girl to rest.

Y/N turns to the side and closes her eyes.

As she was sleeping she heard a small door creak or a window open, whatever opened she felt a soft pair of lips match against hers.

Y/N move at all because she felt like the person would run away, although she was heating up more than ever due to that unexpected kiss.

She slowly opened her eyes just to get a small glimpse of the kisser.

Whoever it was, Y/N didn't really see their face since it was so dark.

It looked like a guy who had flat but spiky hair.

Y/N shut her eyes immediately when the kisser returned wherever he came from.

Y/N rubs her eyes at the sight of smoke in her room.

"Free? FREE!" She yells as she dashes out to see Free trying to cook for her.

"Good morning," he chuckles with his goofy smile.

"Aghhh!" Y/N groans, messing up her hair.

"I... tried to cook for you, haha.." Free guilty moves out of the way so Y/N can see his masterpiece.

She twitches her eye.

It was a half burnt toast with a dripping, not-fried-long-enough egg.

She facepalms.

She then takes Free's hand and teaches him how to cook.

It was a frustrating moment of "wha-?" "Noo!!! Not like that, you donut!" "AHHHH!!" "I don't get it!!"

In the end, you finally taught him how to toast bread and how to fry a simple egg.

"Ohhh," Free says in an emotionless tone while the female laughs.

Y/N suddenly felt like she was being watched, it was like a small hunch.

She turns around quick enough to see a pair of binoculars hide in a tree. (Free's apartment in on floor 5).

Before she could get a closer look, the binoculars hid back in the tree, Y/N growing suspicion each second.

"See something?" Free hums. Y/N shook her head as a soft smile spread across her face, "no, just looking at the birds."

"They're cute, huh?" Free stood beside her, smiling as well. "Mhm," Y/N nodded.

It was a cold silence but Free's embrace and concern warmed the place, Y/N singing quietly to herself.

"As the day bleeds into nightfall, but you're not here to get me through it all..." Y/N hushed herself when Free gazed into her eyes.

"I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug, I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved," Free continued, his smile heartwarming as she tightened her fists.

"Thanks for letting me stay, but I'll probably be a burden to you, so I'll just leave," Y/N packed her things as Free nodded understandably.

Y/N walked out the door, hesitating but she shut it, Free left with his cold atmosphere.

Y/N stopped by a beypark to release her frustration.

"Let it... rip!" She tugged the launcher pad harder than usual, B/N's projectile rushing through the stadium as it flings into the air, someone catching it.

It was Red-Eye.

"I'm not in the mood today, give it back," she hissed.

He smirked, "and why is that?"

"The question is, why would I tell you?" Y/N grabbed her bey before he could do anything, she walked off.

Red Eye followed her, she getting uncomfortable. She walked to her house before shooing Red Eye away, "oh, so this is where you live?" Red Eye took a good look.

"No, this is where my friend lives, I'm staying the night," she grits her teeth though her lies were bluffing.

"Where is she then?" Red Eye had a smug smile.

"At the mall, hitting the stores as always," she then attempts to shut the door but he stops her.

"Come with me," Red Eye took her wrist.

She snarled, a warning to back off, "after what you did to me? No thanks."

Red Eye forced her wrist to move, Y/N slapped his hand in instinct.

"What's your problem?! You dumped me for being champion and now you want me to come back!? You're such a pity! Did Ashtem send you?? I knew it, tell him to leave me alone! I won't be one of his slaves as you did, following his orders on being 'the strongest.' Bull-crap! I thought this would be the last time you would cheat or dump on me, but I guess not, go back to your sluts." Y/N yelped when Red Eye stepped on her shoe.

"I did all of this without your help! You were holding me back, you didn't actually love me. You were using me like everyone else! And look here, you're complaining about ME! Ashtem was right, you aren't worth it. You're just an attention-seeker who just wants somebody to love them, this is LIFE, Y/N, not a dumb romance movie. Get your head out of the clouds and look at the truth, you're pathetic. A humiliation to the Beyblade community and an embarrassment to the real bladers."

"Woooow! Look who's talking! I supported for you, I CARED for you when no one didn't. You just like to puff out your chest and look strong when you're not. I knew Ashtem sent you, you people take beyblading too seriously! Having an underground training sanctuary?! What's wrong with you!? I provided you with love and strength, at least I TRIED to help you. Ashtem is using you."

"Shut UP! Ashtem is helping me become stronger the minute, you're over there doing what exactly?! Playing with your toys?!"

"Beyblades ARE TOYS, KURENAI! GET YOUR FREAKING SELF OUT OF MY HOUSE!"

"NO!"

"I hate you, I FREAKING HATE YOU!"

That's when Red Eye stopped arguing and left, "and for your information, Ashtem didn't send me." He turned around.

"I just wanted to see your smile again, guess not."

He left the entire neighborhood.

Y/N slammed the door and sat against it, hugging her knees as her eyes were stinging a waterfall.
