Warnings: Yaoi

Ok, this was going to be a oneshot, but it has turned into a two shot. Maybe even more if I feel like it. Yes, yet another Miguel/Kai from me. I think I may be just a little obsessed with this pairing. Just a little. Well, I hope you enjoy my twoshot(?) ficcy.
Kai yawns as he stretches his arms over his head until he hears the satisfying pop in his back. He runs his fingers through his hair with one hand while the other picks up his shoulder bag and slings in onto his shoulder. He heads towards the front of the dojo, where he had been staying for a while, to go out and do some errands. He has a busy day ahead of him and he is hoping to get everything over and done with so he can spend the afternoon while Miguel from the Spanish team.
Barthez Battalion is staying in Japan as well, but in a BBA funded hotel room. The whole ordeal with Barthez has quite finished yet. True the over bearing coach is no longer a threat, the court proceedings are taking longer than expected. And since the head office of the BBA is here in Japan, Mr. Dickinson thought it would be best for the European team to stay until everything is sorted out.
It was merely a day after they had arrived in Japan when Kai had literally bumped into Miguel in the street. He had scraped his elbow in the process and Miguel had insisted on clearing it up. As they begin talking they soon realized just how much in common they have and Kai has found himself telling the blond things he never thought he would. But, in return Miguel had also confided in him, telling him is fears, hopes and dreams.
From that day on the two are almost inseparable.
"Where are you going?" Tyson suddenly asks as he steps in front of Kai and ultimately in front of the door.
Kai blinks at the teen, giving him a sour look. "Out," he tells him simply.
"Who are you going with?" Tyson asks with his hands on his hips. "Anyone I know? Anyone I don't know? Are you seeing someone? Why are you so secretive?"
"Jesus Christ, Tyson," Kai says with exasperation. "I'm going for a walk I've got things to do today. What's with the 20 questions?"
Tyson stares at him blankly, with an accusing look on his face and in his eyes. "You're seeing someone, aren't you? You're having an affair."
Kai reels back slightly in surprise. He stares at Tyson for a moment with big owl eyes. "What?"
"It's Miguel, isn't it?" he asks bluntly. His eyes narrows when Kai blushes softly. "I knew it! I bet he's trying to get you tell him out weaknesses, isn't he? That bastard. I bet he wants to know about our Beyblade techniques, doesn't he? He's just using you, you know?"
"I don't know what you're going on about, Tyson," Kai shakes his head in disbelief. Does Tyson even know what 'affair' means? It simply means two people having a sexual relationship who aren't married. He thinks he's having sex with Miguel!
Kai blushes madly and rapidly shakes his head to remove the X-rated thoughts he was suddenly inundated with.
"I'm right," Tyson continues with a scowl. "How long has this been going on? What have you told him?"
"For god's sake Tyson, do you even listen to yourself?" Kai snaps with his very own scowl. And it should be said, it is far more frightening than Tyson's. "Do you have any idea how ridiculous you sound right now? I'm not having an affair!"
With those parting words Kai storms out of the dojo, ignoring Tyson who yelled something and continues down the street. He can't do the things he had planned. Why? He's far too angry and confused at the moment. Just why did Tyson suddenly spring this on him? What on earth gave the world champion ideas that he and Miguel were having some kind of secret rendezvous? He soon reaches the park, still fuming. He then pulls out his phone and rings Tala. He needs to have a good bitch to someone and Tala is the only person he can talk to at the moment. He can't speak with Miguel about this. It's far too embarrassing.
Kai blushes again when those unsavory thoughts return. He physically slaps himself and rings Tala on his cell phone. "Tala!" he whines into the phone.
"What has Tyson done now?" Tala asks unsuccessfully smothering a tired sigh.
"Do you know what he has accused me of?" Kai asks, pacing in circles, thankful that no one is around. "Me and Miguel?"
"No," Tala says sounding somewhat surprised. "what about you and Miguel?"
"He thinks we're having an affair!" Kai yells into the phone. He receives silence as his reply.
"…Well, why don't you?" Tala asks suddenly, after a moment of silence. "Start an affair, I mean."
Kai blinks, anger all but gone. "…You're not serious?" he whispers after a moment, well aware that he was blushing again.
"Why not?" Tala says offhandedly. "I mean, you're already guilty in his eyes, so might as well make it official."
Kai chews on his bottom lip. "But, what if…what if Miguel isn't interested?"
"Oh, he's interested," Tala replies and Kai could imagine him with a wolf like smirk. "And so are you."
Kai stiffens. "What are you implying?"
"Talk to him about it. It won't hurt."
"…Fine, but you had better be right," Kai warns as he suddenly gets the image of Miguel looking repulsed and turning away from him. He shivers slightly as a dull hurt appears in his chest and he chews nervously on his bottom lip again. "I just don't want things to be awkward between us."
"Everything will be fine," Tala reassures into the phone. "Trust me."
"How do you know?" Kai asks.
"I know all." Was Tala's simple reply and Kai starts to laugh. "You can stop laughing whenever you're ready, Kai." Kai continues to laugh, barely hearing the redhead mumble something about being ungrateful and hanging up.
Kai manages to catch his breath and wipes the tears of laughter from his eyes. He couldn't believe how serious Tala sounded when he said that. Not-it-all-Tala, somehow that just doesn't suit him. He draws in a deep breath and settles himself. He lifts his phone again and scrolls through the phone book, looking for Miguel's number.
Just what did Tala mean when he said Miguel would be interested? Would Miguel actually be interested in starting an affair with him? Inwardly, Kai frowns. He doesn't want to start a relationship based on sex with Miguel. Miguel is a wonderful person, he deserves an loving and understanding partner.
"Hello?" Miguel answers, sounding uncharacteristically reluctant, and one could say he also sounds fearful.
Kai was initially startled, but manages to respond with his voice in check. "Hey Miguel, it's Kai."
"Kai," Miguel says with a sense of relief in his voice. "I was just about to ring you."
"Oh?" Kai says, this time unable to hide the surprise in his voice.
"Tyson just rang me, accusing me of trying to take advantaged of you," Miguel tells him with disbelief.
Kai pauses for a moment, then he inwardly seethes. "He what?!"
Miguel sighs. "He said some other things as well, but it was all rather incoherent."
Kai sighs as well and mentally readies himself for what he's about to say. "Miguel, listen, this will probably sounds strange, but Tyson thinks we're having an affair and we're plotting against him."
Miguel was silent and Kai fears that the blond might have fainted in shock. "Miguel…?" Kai asks into the phone. "I know, strange huh?" he says, though sounding a little more disappointed than he would have liked.
He heard Miguel suck a deep breath in. "…Do you want to?" he asks after a moment.
This time Kai almost faints. "What?" he stutters.
"I don't mean anything like that," Miguel answers quickly. "I mean just hanging out together, going out on dates and stuff like that. I don't want to start a relationship with you that's just about sex." Kai felt himself smile at those words. How amusing, he just had the same thought not too long ago. "If you don't want to, I understand," Miguel adds, his voice holding this sense of hope.
Kai bit his lip. He and Miguel have a very strong friendship. Could they also be lovers as well? He blushes softly. He has to admit, he has been thinking about Miguel in more of a romantic sense lately. "…Yes," Kai says, nodding even though Miguel can't see it. "I'd like that."
He heard Miguel breath a sigh of relief and he smiles. "Tomorrow, then?" Miguel asks.
"Great," Kai replies, his smile growing. "see you then."
They bid their goodbyes and Kai couldn't help but notice the relief and happiness in Miguel's voice. Kai closes his phone and holds it to his chest. He is feeling uncharacteristically lightheaded. In fact, one could say he was feeling giddy.
It's ironic, really. Tyson had just accused him of having an affair with Miguel. Although, unproven at the time, it seems to have been more of a premonition then an accusation. It was actually the push that they needed to cross the line of just friends to something more. They are now officially boyfriends. And hopefully one day soon, they'll be lovers.
One chappy down. Please tell what you think of it so far.
Kai: You have other fics you need to finish, you know?
(Apologetically bows repeatedly) I know, I know. I'll finish them one day, I promise. I just have other ideas floating around and need to get rid of them. I'll try to update soon, I promise.
Please review.
