A.N. I dedicate this story to my best friend on fanfiction they know who they are, after all they gave me the idea to this story, hence the title.
This is basically a KaiRei fic, Rei's can't quite get over his ex boyfriend and Kai is trying to comfort him in everyway that he can, so takes him to the pub 'The Dragon and Phoenix', but how is he going to make him happy and why is he so upset for when they've been broken up for months now?
The Dragon and Phoenix
"Rei…don't cry Rei" Kai had been sitting down by the side of the river with Rei, when Rei suddenly turned around and burst into tears.
"I.Can't.Stand.It.Anymore." He was able to babble out to him "He used me!" Rei babbled thinking of his ex boyfriend who had left him.
"It's ok Rei" Kai was extremely uncomfortable, he didn't show emotion, so he didn't know what to do now "Rei stop being so stupid, come on get up, lets go find Tala and Tyson" Rei seemed to somewhat flinch when Tyson's name was spoken. Kai got up and dragged Rei with him.
"Rei, Kai over here!" A familiar voice
'Thank god' Kai thought 'It's Max perhaps he can do something'
"Hey Kai, Rei what's up mate?" There was no reply from Rei he just stood there dazed out "Rei?" Max touched Rei's shoulder, causing Rei to look at him.
"Meow." Rei blinked, both teens looked confused at their young wide eyed friend.
'Arrr, he looks so cute like that' though Kai as he looked at the young teen with a very innocent look on his face. However Rei just turned heel and walked away from his friends, Kai watched a glare covering his features, why did he have to help Rei? Why did Rei have to speak to him about all his trouble? He had enough troubles fro himself thank you very much. His Crimson start to soften as he watched Rei sit on the grass, they were by the fountains now, and Rei was now hissing at the pigeons…hissing? What was going on? 'I have to find Tala and Tyson they'll know what to do' Kai walked over to Rei and knelt in front of him, "Come on Rei lets go find the others" Kai got Rei to his feet once more, heading towards the college with Max in tow.
They reached the college, Rei sat on the concrete steps, placing his hands over his face. Dai stayed on his feet, pulling out his tobacco and started rolling a fag. After he rolled the fag he looked at it then threw it at Rei, who looked at Kai questioningly. Kai threw his lighter at him rolling another fag.
After lighting his fag Kai looked over at the automatic doors that entered the college, finally Tala and Tyson walked out, both running over to Kai.
"Hey Kai, what's up mate, we both have a four hour break now, wana go to the pub or something?" Dai sent a sideways glance at Rei, who looked very alone and depressed. Max suddenly ran over to greet Tala and Tyson, pouncing on Tyson, who was now arguing as he was just about to light a fag.
"Your supposed to be quitting with me, if I don't have one then you don't either" They two, 'hyperactive no sugar required' Kai liked to say, started wrestling each other both being careful, as not to break the fag, Kai looked at them disgusted throwing his tobacco at Max.
"Shut up and roll one if you must!" Kai turned back to Rei, Tala in tow. Kai stood behind Rei leaning on the wall, as Tala sat on the floor next to Rei.
"Rei, what's up mate?" Rei looked at Tala, his golden eyes filling with tears once more "Lee?" Tala asked, Rei nodded on hearing the name of his ex boyfriend, a single tear rolling down his cheek. Tala's deep blue eyes filled with sympathy as he looked at his friend wondering how he could make it all better. Rei looked away unsure what to say or do. Kai had been watching the whole thing from the corner of his eye and was getting somewhat more annoyed every second, why was it down to him to have to help Rei, why was it that everyone else was so crap at this…friendship…thing!? Kai had, had enough; he stumped his fag and went down the college steps grabbing both his blue and golden eyed friends.
"That's a brilliant idea Tyson, let's go to the pub!" he shouted over his shoulder, Tyson hadn't actually said anything and was really confused by Kai's remark. Kai dragged both Rei and Tala over the road, as Tyson and Max ran after them, both throwing their fags on the floor.
Kai dragged both Rei and Tala all the way to his favourite put, 'The Dragon and Phoenix'. The name of the pub had always reminded him of his crush on Tyson, it was there he had first met Tyson plus his Beyblade bit beast was a Phoenix and Tyson's was a Dragon, why he had always though that them two being together was fate because of that was beyond him, but this was the best bar around and that's all that mattered.
"Kai?" Kai looked into the brown eyes of the younger teen "I can't go in there!" Tyson proclaimed, his eyes flashing towards Rei who looked at the floor.
"What? Why?" Dai wasn't in the mood for this then he saw that Tyson had no bad "Where's your bag?" He asked his death glare coming to his features scaring Tyson slightly, he was used to Kai, he'd been friends with him for a year now and he loved him dearly but that death glare, was something he'd never get used to.
"I left it back at college, I didn't know you were coming here, well I knew you were going to a pub but…"
"Tyson, you don't need you I.D. here! What are you going on about?"
"Well I met someone the other day! And I got really pissed…" Tyson started twiddling his thumbs "…and I – kind of – embarrassed myself" Normally Kai would of thought of this for a while, and be slightly hurt, but he didn't care he wanted his peace and quite, and now he wants a lovely pint of cider, Strongbow preferably, so he grabbed Tyson, letting go of Tala who stayed in tow, all five teens entered the pub.
As time went by every teen was much happier as they continued to drink. Kai started rolling his fag sitting outside back of the pub. Suddenly Tyson came stumbling out, with…Kai couldn't believe his eyes it was Lee Rei's ex. Kai got to his feet, he glared at the teens, they had obviously not seen him there as they started groping each other, he started stalking toward them as they giggled their way toward the back wall. Kai turned slightly as he felt a firm but gentle hand touch his shoulder.
"Kai" Kai turned to the familiar voice of Rei "It's ok, really. Just leave it." Kai looked in the direction of the tow teens, his glare deepening to a dangerous level. "Seriously, Tyson spoke to me about it first; everything is going to be alright. I'm actually really happy for them" Kai looked back at Rei, he wasn't lying he had that look in his eyes, Kai hadn't seen that look in a long time…Rei was happy and he was smiling "Anyway, he wasn't the reason I was so upset anyway, he was part of it but not all of it, and I know you have a thing for Tyson but it's not the point!" Rei turned on his heel and looked at Kai tear stricken. Kai felt that feeling that he'd felf amny times in the past unsure of what it was that he was feeling but it was very painful and sad at the same time. He moved close to Rei lifting his hand to Rei's cheek he wiped away a tear, then moving a strand of his black hair from his eyes Kai wondered what he was doing, so pulled away rather quickly.
"Why are you crying if your happy then?" Kai muttered as he looked away from rei, a slight pink flush covering his cheeks.
"I dunno actually, I feel really happy, but then I feel so alone as well, all my family are still all in china and I probably won't see them over Christmas either, and I can't afford to see them." Rei burst into yet more tears.
"Come on lets go to mine" Kai walked out taking Rei's hand in the process. They walked down the street hand in hand, receiving many looks in the process. Kai eventually go hold of a taxi and paid for both him and Rei to get to his flat.
When they finally got to the flat they decided to sit and watch the recorded battles Kai had of their Beyblade battles in the past. Rei felt for Kai's hand and they cuddled for many hours watching their previous battles.
Finally, they went to bed, and Kai leant Rei some clothes to sleep in and a toothbrush. Rei crawled into Kai's, really soft, king sized bed, Kai turned his back on the neko unsure why he suddenly felt shy.
"Kai" Rei was silent and seemed somewhat frightened Kai turned around to look into the golden eyes of the neko, but only to see black hair as Rei huddled up to him. Kai stroked the soft black hair closing his eyes, then something strange happened, he felt something going up his top, it was a hand, it was Rei's hand. Kai opened his eyes to look at the neko, only to be surprised to find the boy leaning in for a kiss. As Rei backed off slightly after kissing the crimson eyed wonderer, they looked into each others eyes noses touching.
"I'm sorry…I shouldn't of-" Rei was cut off, as Kai pulled him into another kiss embracing the young teen feeling the warmth and comfort as he kissed back. "Kai.I.Don't-" Kai placed a finger on the young teens lips, pecking him lightly on the lips once more.
"Don't think, just act…right?" Kai seemed somewhat confused and embarrassed and…
"Are you blushing?" Kai got out of bed
"I.Err.I'm falling in love with you Rei!"
"What?" Rei jumped to his feet "Are you serious" Kai was shocked by the excitement in Rei's voice "Nobody's ever had feelings for me!" Rei laughed, Kai made his way to the door "Especially someone who I've been in love with since the very second I laid eyes on him" Kai stopped mid step "I love you too Kai. Now come back to bed, it's getting cold. Kai blushed a heating red, walking over to the bed he was pulled onto it, Rei then rolling on top of him. "That's why I cried, because I was in love with my best friend and my ex didn't want me. " Rei pulled Kai's top off slowly, he licked his chest from bottom to top, Kai flinching slightly, taking a very sharp breath inward "I must be a little tipsy Kai you in for a treat!" Kai blushed furiously and gulped.
The next morning Kai woke up thinking it was all a dream, after all he was in bed and on his own. He leant up rubbing his head, great was he going to have a hangover as well. He looked up shocked as he heard someone enter the bedroom.
"Oh! Morning Kai. You were still sleeping I hope it was ok for me to go eat something, when I wake up after a night of drinking I get really hungry." It was Rei and he was wearing nothing, well he was wearing Kai's night gown.
"No…that's fine" Kai replied
"Did you think it was all a dream? By the way there's water and pain killers for your headache on the table next to you!" He headed to the bed, taking off the night gown he climbed back into bed, curling up to Kai he started to purr.
"Err Rei?" Rei looked up at Kai "Would you like some money?"
"What? Kai last night wasn't like THAT!" Rei shouted, his fangs barred.
"No, no I didn't mean like that, it's just I thought you might like some for a trip…to China, so you can see your family for Christmas!"
"Kai. No you don't have to do that, I don't want you to"
"Well that's tuff to be honest, I've known for a while that you weren't going to see your family, I just didn't realise that it was hurting you so much, I've already brought your ticket there and back, it's in the draw next to you!"
"Kai you didn't have to do that, I…"
"Well I did, it's your Christmas present, with the amount of money I got from Voltaire dying I can afford it for my friends who stood by me can't I?"
"Thank you Kai!" Rei pounced on Kai who blushed slightly "But I'll only except them under one condition…" Kai looked at Rei questioningly "…your coming with me no matter what you say, I know you spending Christmas alone as well so your coming!"
A.N. Wow that 'The Dragon and Phoenix' pub seems somewhat like a gay bar in my fic don't ya think lol, it's not in reality or I don't think so, I got the idea from a friend, but there seems to be a lot of boys falling in love and getting together in there, huh didn't think about it till just lol
