YuuA answered her phone. And it was voice that she did not expect. It was him. Despite her feelings she tried to tone done her voice to the coldest that she could.

"What do you want? I'm busy."

"Really.The cold tone? Even if you looked excited just a moment ago."

YuuA looked around trying to see if V was around but she could not distinguish him from the crowd that was around her.

"I'm not there if you are worried. You wanted distance and so you got it."

"So why are you calling me now? What do you want?"

"When I call you is it always about me wanting anything or isn't it the other way around?"

"There you go with your circular questions again."YuuA tried to act annoyed but a smile was creeping on her face.

"Is that a smile I hear?"

"You can't hear a smile."

"I have known it for decades."

YuuA was smiling more fully now.Knowing that V still remembered but she had to keep up the act.

"I am asking you again. What do you want? Tell me or I am going to put this down and block your number."

For a few heartbeats the girl could not hear anything from the other end of the line until he answered almost in a whisper.

"I want to be with you."

YuuA sat down. Her heart was pounding so hard that she was worried that he could hear it. 

"You only need to say the words..."

"I want you here..."

And time stopped for a little bit. Reality ripping right down the middle to allow the dragon to pass the distance of time and space to stand there before her.

"And so I am here."

The girl ran to him , her hands embracing him for what seemed like an eternity.
