Chapter 2: Not being responsible, accident by the poolside
It had been at least two days after the gang's BBQ party, and another sunny day over the city, at the house Hikaru was dressed in signature blue outfit as she was on her way to work out of the WBBA. Tsubasa had already left for his job at the WBBA, Yu was sitting in the living room playing a video game.
Ryuga was in the garden lounging in the pool, he had on a pair of sunglasses and earphones on. Hikaru looked at Yu playing and then headed out the back where Ryuga was chilling, she opened the patio door and saw him completely relaxed. She smiled and then went just by the pool edge to get his attention.
"Hey Ryuga, I need you to watch Yu while I'm gone! Earth to Ryuga, hey!'' the blue hair girl shouted trying to get Ryuga's attention but he was lost in the music
"Alright then... I guess were gonna have to do this the hard way...'' she said as she noticed the beach ball floating by the edge, she smiled and bent down to grab the ball and then threw at him
"What the hell!'' the white and red hair teen shouted as he shot out glaring as he turned around to see Hikaru, his angered face vanished seeing her
"Oh Hikaru... Sorry I had my headphones on at full blast... Was there something you wanted?'' Ryuga asked Hikaru as he was now seating up on his inflatable board
"I'm just letting you know that I'm heading out to work, so can you just watch Yu until me and Tsubasa get back from work'' Hikaru asked the older teen who nodded in response to her question
"Sure... I'll watch him don't worry about it...'' Ryuga said with a faint smile as he went back to lying on his floating relaxer as he put his headphones in
"Alright thanks a lot, I'll just be going out... Oh just make sure Yu doesn't play by the pool, okay bye!'' Hikaru shouted as she went back into the house as Ryuga waved in response
"Alright Yu, I'm leaving now Ryuga's gonna watch you until me and Tsubasa come back, bye'' she said as she ruffled Yu's hair making him smile as she waved at him as she went out the front door locking it behind her
With that Hikaru had headed into the city to the WBBA's HQ leaving Yu playing with toys and Ryuga lounging in the pool. While he lay in the pool, he had forgotten Hikaru's last words to him, and that mistake would lead to a whole lot trouble to coming week. But he laid there bathing in the sunlight without a care in the world...
(About 2 hours later)
In the time Hikaru had gone Ryuga had gotten something for him and Yu to eat and he had stayed in the same position lounging on the pool listening to music with can in his hand. However he didn't notice that Yu was playing by the pool with the beach, he had gotten bored and decided to play around the pool.
"Hey, come back here!'' the young boy said as he ran after the bouncing ball which bounced back and forth around the edge of the pool
"I've almost got it!'' Yu shouted as he was inches away from the ball, suddenly he slipped on some water and fell into the pool with the ball
"Help! Help I can't swim! Ryuga help me!'' Yu screamed as he was splashing in the water trying to get Ryuga's attention, then he tried to use the ball to float on but then it spun round as he was underwater
"Hey Yu, I just remembered...'' Ryuga said as he turned his head, but he couldn't see Yu, he looked around but he was nowhere to be seen, he just shrugged and then continued to play his music
(Meanwhile at the WBBA)
Hikaru was in the main office at the WBBA HQ, she was sorting out some files on Ryo's desk, and Gingka's father had headed out to a meeting with some WBBA's officials. She wondered if her immature boss could cope and stay focused without her always reminding him that he's the respected director.
Just then the door knocked, she placed the documents on the desk and walked over to the door opening it to see Tsubasa smiling at her. She smiled to see her boyfriend as she let him into the office, he had been introducing some young bladers into the world beyblading as it was one of his jobs here.
"So how's your afternoon been so far Tsubasa?'' Hikaru asked her boyfriend as went to get a cup of water while Tsubasa was sitting down on a chair in the office
"It was really good, there were a lot of bladers at the initiation this morning, so much potential'' Tsubasa said smiling as he remembered all the young kids wanting to become great bladers
"Well that's great, after all it's our duty to help your bladers become the greatest bladers they can be'' Hikaru said as she gave him one of the cups of water
"Thank you... Oh, by the way did you leave Yu with Madoka and the others?'' Tsubasa asked Hikaru who smiled as she remembered that she was gonna call Ryuga
"Oh yeah, Madoka went out for the day with her dad and Gingka and the others left for a tournament, so I just left him with Ryuga'' she said as Tsubasa suddenly coughed up some of the water
"Excuse me...? Did you say you left Yu in Ryuga's care?'' Tsubasa said as he patted his chest looking with a shocked expression while she looked confused
"Oh come on, there's nothing to worried about, Ryuga is more than capable of taking care of Yu" she said defending Ryuga unaware about what was happening back home
(Back at the house)
It had been about four minutes since Yu slipped in the pool, he was unconscious under the water for about a minute now, and Ryuga was still listening to his music has he hadn't noticed him. He was still lounging back in the pool, just then he took out his headset, he wondered where Yu had gone.
"Hmm... I wonder where that kid went?'' Ryuga said looking around when suddenly he noticed something under the water, he tried to have a closer and suddenly his eyes widen realising
"Oh my god Yu, hold on!'' Ryuga shouted as he jumped off his inflatable bed and dived into the water as he grabbed Yu and pulled him out of the pool
"Ah shit! Come on, come on Yu!'' Ryuga said as he placed Yu on the poolside as patted him, then he put his ear to his chest trying to listen for a heartbeat, there something but it was faint
"Oh hell no, don't you die on me! Come on, 1... 2... 3'' Ryuga said pumping Yu's chest repeatedly, he face had a frantic look as he kept pumping his chest
"Come on, just breathe... Breath damn it!" Ryuga shouted at the unconscious boy as he then realised he had to try one more thing, but his face turned with disgust
"Oh man... I can't believe I gonna have to do this... Fuck it, just get it over with!'' he said as he opened Yu's face he looked like he was gonna be sick and then he took a deep breath and breathed into the boy's mouth
"Ah man, that's so nasty... Come on man...'' Ryuga said as he felt really ill but he had to suck it up and go again as continue the repetition of pumping his chest and giving him mouth to mouth
Suddenly Yu coughed up some water, unfortunately Ryuga was giving him mouth to mouth, the older teen widen his eyes as felt like he was gonna vomit as he spat out the regurgitated water he just swallowed by the side. Yu was coughing as he gasped for air, Ryuga snapped out of this and held Yu by his head.
"Oh thank god... Yu are you alright, say something?'' Ryuga asked the boy who suddenly hugged Ryuga as he was shriving with fear and the cold
"You saved my life Ryuga... Thank you so much! It was so scary!'' Yu said slightly crying while Ryuga looked a little shocked as he realised that it was his fault that Yu nearly drowned, and that he was in the water for about 5 minutes
"Yeah... Its okay, everything's fine... As long as we never tell anyone what happened!'' Ryuga said looking at Yu who still looked out of breath, slightly confused
"Why... You're a hero Ryuga... Why wouldn't we tell anyone who you saved me from drowning?'' Yu asked him as Ryuga was thinking of something to say quickly
"Well, you see... We can't... I mean you'd be in so much trouble with Hikaru and Tsubasa'' Ryuga said with fake sincere look as Yu slightly widen his eyes
"Yeah, I mean if Hikaru found out that you were playing by the pool after she told you it was dangerous, and that you nearly drowned... Well you've since how she gets when she's angry'' Ryuga said as Yu imagined how angry and disappointed Hikaru and Tsubasa would be
"So well just say it never happened... If they asked you what you did today, you were just playing inside or watching TV'' Ryuga said with a faint smile as Yu nodded in response
"That's really smart Ryuga... After what you've done today I'll always listen to you, you need anything from me and I'll do it'' Yu said hugging his 'hero' once again as Ryuga slightly patted him
"By the way... How did you get the water out of me Ryuga?'' Yu asked Ryuga whose face expression changed to a disgusted one as he would remember what he had to do and what happened at the end
"Trust me... It's better that no one knows what I had to do...'' Ryuga in a cryptic manner as he took Yu back inside the house to dry him off
