If Only - Cardfight Vanguard

Chapter 13 : Anticipation

Chapter 13 is here~ yay~ I don't own cardfight vangaurd at all~ sadly it belongs to Bushiroad.. Anyway let the chapter start~

I was curious how everyone in my class would react, it slightly worried me. Not because I was afraid for myself but I was worried that Naoki might end up getting treated how I was treated. I frowned at the thought that his life could get ruined just because he had asked to become my friend and I had selfishly accepted the offer.

I shook my head quickly to dissipate any negative thoughts that were forming inside my mind beforehand. I wanted today to be a great day filled with fun.

Today will be the first time I've spent with a friend, I've got to make sure I'm positive!

I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face as I eagerly got dressed for school, I then went downstairs to get some breakfast. I was glad when I was greeted with the smell of fresh pancakes being cooked, I peeked into the kitchen and my mood lit up when I saw that they were already finished to be eaten.

"Ah good morning Aichi, you're up early today"

My mom smiled as she took off her apron and began to wash the dishes. I walked over and sat in my chair so I could begin eating my pancakes.

"Yep, thanks for the pancakes mom!"

I smiled before I began to eat the fluffy pancakes that were drizzled with syrup.

Today seems like it'll be a great day, I hope I'm right.

When I finished eating I put my plate in the sink then saw Emi come walking into the kitchen rubbing her eye.

"Mom the worlds ending..."

Emi yawned as she continued to run the sleep out of her blue eyes, my mom just smiled and put a towel and a plate down.

"Why is that Emi?"

"Aichi got up way before me!"

We laughed at Emi's childish joke, it was true that Emi is always up before me usually. So me getting up before her was a huge deal.

"Well I'm off to school!"

I called as I grabbed my shoes and ran out the door, the air was fresh and felt great. The weather seemed as if it also wanted me to have a great day, I couldn't help but smile at my silly thought, knowing that the weather isn't able to do anything like that.

"Oi Aichi!"

I stopped running right in my tracks, I looked around confused but then smiled when I noticed Naoki running towards me waving his hand in a silly manner.

"Hi Naoki, how are you?"

I asked as he reached me, he seemed to have run quite the distance because he was panting hard for breath.

"Ah I'm great, just tired from running"

I tilted my head confused as we walked to school.

"Why were you running"

Naoki smiled a silly smile at me.

"I live quite the distance away and I wanted to walk to school with you"

Wow, Naoki sure is kind, I'm glad I'm his friend.

"Ah how did you know I take this route?"

Naoki looked away somewhat guilty the looked back towards me with a bit of unease.

"I... Used to see you walk this way all the time when Mizuha.."

He trailed off, I knew what he meant and I smiled happily at him, knowing that he shouldn't feel any guilt.

"Ah... Well anyway I'm happy we got to walk together to school! I never thought I'd get to do this with a friend before"

I couldn't help but smile, until I noticed faint worry flicker across Naoki's face.

"You never expected... I'm sorry.. I should have gained the guts to talk to you sorry.."

I looked up at the blue sky and enjoyed the fresh breeze that had started to blow, then looked back towards Naoki with a smile.

"It's fine, I'm just happy I have a friend as good as you now"

I heard a sigh come from Naoki and I looked at him confused.

"Aichi, how can you tell if I'm a good friend or not? We've only just made contact yesterday?"

I paused to think for a while.

"You seem kind and you're obviously a caring person, that's why I think you're such a good friend."

He looked at me with then smiled and nodded, it seemed weird yet good. I had thought that I would have been too nervous to speak properly but that didn't seem to be the case.

I guess I longed for a friend to talk to more than I had initially thought.. Well that problems solved now.

Me: that's the end of chapter 13! Yay~

Aichi: Naoki so kind ^_^

Naoki: 0.0 wait what? I'm joining these skits now?

Me: yep~

Naoki: why?

Aichi: because you're my friend ^_^

Naoki: okay then.. I'm still confused about the skits

Me: too bad~ anyway hope ya liked the chapter~
