"There he is... He's so creepy... No! Akia! This is no time to waver! It's only one date for your brother's sake! And Jounouchi's... Why am I even thinking of that idiot at a time like this! Whatever! I don't have a choice." Akia thought to herself while taking a deep breath to calm her nerves.
"U... Ushio-senpai!" She tried to call out to him in a friendly voice.
Ushio turned around to find Akia waving at him with a small smile on her face.
"You? Smiling at me? Something hit your head?" Ushio poked fun at her.
"You don't have to phrase it like that. Enjoy it while it lasts," Akia said in between her teeth.
"So? What do you want?" Ushio asked her.
"The debt Yugi owes..." The girl trailed off, not wanting to say what she needed to say out loud.
"You have the money? Or are you asking me to lift it? Because that won't happen," Ushio stated.
"Even if I agree to go on a date with you?" Akia asked softly, trying to sound as flirty as she could be.
Jounouchi and Honda were watching the whole scene from afar.
"That idiot! What is she thinking?" Jounouchi whispered to Honda.
"Well it can't be that bad, right? It's just a date..." Honda replied, trying to reason with his friend.
"Of course it's bad! I won't let her do this!" Jounouchi retorted with a louder voice and started trying to go stop Akia.
Honda was using all his strength to keep Jounouchi from acting rashly. In the meantime, the conversation between Ushio and Akia was still going.
"A date... It would be enough to lift the debt off of your brother..." Ushio pensively responded, rubbing his chin in wonder.
"That's great!" Akia cheerfully answered.
"But..." Ushio cut her enthusiasm short.
"What is it?" Akia asked, afraid of what was coming next.
"The other two won't be off the hook because of one simple date," he grinned widely, loving every moment of what he was doing.
"The other two... You mean Jounouchi and Honda?" Akia inquired to make sure.
"It will take more than just a date to get them out of this," Ushio reiterated.
Akia clenched her fists, feeling her anger bubble up. She took a deep breath, thinking of Yugi, Jounouchi, and Honda, and calmed herself down.
"What else do you want?" She whispered.
"I want you to be my girlfriend... permanently," Ushio gave out his conditions with a smug look on his face, "as long as you're my girlfriend, I won't lay a finger on any of them. Deal?"
As much as Akia hated him, she cared about Yugi, Jounouchi and Honda's safety more.
"...Deal," she muttered.
"NO DEAL!" Jounouchi shouted out as he came out from where he was eavesdropping.
"Damn it, Jounouchi!" Honda yelled at his friend.
Jounouchi was finally able to get away from Honda and ran next to Akia, facing Ushio.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Akia asked him, secretly relieved that he was there.
"I should be asking you the same thing! Why would you even consider going out with that creep?" Jounouchi reprimanded her.
"Stop meddling with my business!" She retorted.
