Disclaimer: Nope, neither Tyson or Kai belong to me, I'm just playing with them for a little while.
AN- There is absolutely no point to this story. It's just pure TyKai fluff. Enjoy.
Whispered
At first, Kai had been sure he was dreaming. It was the only obvious explanation for the words he had just heard. He had to have been dreaming. He sat up in the bed and looked down at his sleeping bed mate. Tyson's hair almost completely hid his face from view, but Kai reached out a hand anyway, to check the other boy was actually asleep and not pretending.
The two had been sleeping together for almost a month, now. After having lost a match to a very coordinated Max and Rei, they had gone out, got drunk and ended up sleeping together. The following day had been slightly awkward, until Tyson had let it slip that he thought Kai was cute when he first woke up and Kai had responded by tackling Tyson to the bed. Things had been pretty simple since then: sleep and fight, sleep and fight, sleep and fight and sometimes Tyson would sneak down for food afterwards but things were still good, and no one seemed to figure out that they were doing it.
Tyson didn't move when Kai shifted his bangs out of his face and leaned down to check if he was still asleep. Everyone knew that Tyson slept like the dead and could never be woken up by anything, not even a bomb going off.
Sure enough, Tyson was fast asleep and snuggled closer to Kai, murmuring into the covers. Kai shook his head, no way, he had to have been imagining it, and slid down in the bed so he was almost nose to nose with Tyson. He smiled anyway, even though Tyson was probably just talking in his sleep and most likely dreaming that he was talking to someone else.
Tyson moved closer, and Kai slid an arm around his friend, still grinning and dropped a kiss on Tyson's lips. Typically, Tyson didn't respond at all, and Kai whispered the words back anyway, even if Tyson couldn't hear him.
"I love you too, Tyson."
"Really?" Tyson's head popped up, his eyes wide and clear. Apparently, Tyson could hear him in his sleep. Kai almost jumped clean out of his skin, but managed to quickly recover and smile back.
"Yes, Tyson, really," he whispered back.
Tyson grinned, and smashed his lips to Kai's. Kai responded eagerly, sweeping his tongue into Tyson's mouth and pulling Tyson on top of him so Tyson could feel how much Kai wanted him.
A few hours later, Tyson rolled off Kai and took the opportunity to watch him as he slept. Kai's hair was a mess, and Tyson ruffled it affectionately, still up on cloud nine at Kai's confession.
"Love you, Kai," he whispered in the dark and stayed awake until Kai woke, sleepy, ruffled and very cute when he was still half-asleep.
