The Fate That Binds The Will(Yu-Gi-Oh! AU Story)

Chapter 10

Yuzu and Yuya were gone to the field near the forest. It was full of colorful flowers and small rivers. Three wooden bridges connected both sides of the land. Both of them had sat on a nearby tree.

Yuzu: Prince?

Yuya: Sorry for interrupting, but call me by my name. I don't like being formal.

Yuzu: Ok. Um... Yuya?

Yuya: Hm?

Yuzu: I'm sorry for running away like that at the ball.

Yuya: It's fine.

Yuzu: No, I'm sorry. I should have talked it out instead of running away.

Yuya: You thought I was going to propose?

Yuzu: How do you know?

Yuya: My brother told me that. But he said it was a possibility.

Yuzu: Well, it is true. I'm a little scared of relationships.

Yuya: We don't have to be in a relationship.

Yuzu: What about the legend?

Yuya: It doesn't mean we have to follow it.

Yuzu: But... what about the powers and the partner monster?

Yuya: We can meet once a week. Or more. That will be enough for the bond to become stronger. You won't feel obligated to stay with me.

She felt bad now. Her blue eyes went to her bracelet.

Yuzu: "Our older siblings seem to know each other well. It won't be late for them to become a couple. So, if they start a relationship, it will make me and the prince get closer too. I know he's a stranger, but if I start dating him, I'll get to know him better."

His red eyes gazed at hers. She looked away, then looked back.

Yuzu: Yuya, I changed my mind. I think that to have a good relationship, I need to get to know you. Meaning that, I need to spend time with you. You know... like a...

She started blushing before she could say the word.

Yuzu: Like a date.

He thought for a bit, then nodded.

Yuya: Ok. If you see no problem with it.

His eyes fell on the flowers close to him. He picked one, then another, and another, and another. Yuzu noticed this and was watching in curiousity.

Yuzu: "What is he doing?"

Yuya: Yuzu, close your eyes.

Yuzu: Um, okay.

She felt something light being placed above her head.

Yuya: You may open them.

She did and was a bit confused. Yuya giggled at her reaction.

Yuya: It's above your head. You can take it off to see it.

She got it and gasped.

Yuzu: Flower crown?

Yuya: Like it?

She smiled gleefully.

Yuzu: Yes, I do. Thanks.

She put it back to her head.

Yuzu: Does it look good on me?

Yuya: It looks beautiful on you.

Her cheeks became slightly red. Yuzu felt her heart skip a beat. She knew that she was starting to like him.

Yuzu: "He's so nice... No wonder so many girls are into him. But according to the legend, I am his chosen one."
