Me: I was reading through my old stories and I got an idea when I read 'An Affinity For Ice Cream!' And this is what came from that idea! This will most likely be a two-shot.

Kai: Shouldn't you have done this awhile ago, then?

Me: ...hush. Go make out with Miguel.

Rei: Please Read and Review!

Disclimer: I no own.

"Look out!" Tyson called from the basketball courts which were no where in seeing distance of where the new couple was. Kai pulled away from Miguel regrettably, barely missing the ball as Miguel raised his hand that was holding the ice cream to stop it. Kai bit his lip and Miguel raised his eyebrow, kicking the ball now covered in strawberry and chocolate ice cream to the courts.

"You alright?" Tyson shouted. "Sorry about that!"

"We're fine!" Miguel shouted. "My hand…better go to the bathroom…" He stopped when Kai grabbed his wrist, where the ice cream was not occupying currently. Kai lifted Miguel's hand up to his face and flicked his tongue out, taking some of the contents on Miguel's hand with it as it disappeared into his mouth.

"Let me do it," Kai said. Miguel smiled and nodded as Kai lead him back to the tree, backwards until his back hit the trunk. "I think I rather like this combination."

"That's good," Miguel smirked. "Because I like the view right in front of me."

"I like that even more," Kai said, kissing Miguel soundly on the lips, letting him taste the combination of what was once not on his hand.

"I think I want some ice cream now," Rei said, both he and Claude having witnessed the spectacle.

"Pervert," Claude blushed. "You're paying," He blushed crimson red as Rei pulled him up against him.

"I'm paying to share," Rei smirked, licking Claude's lips suggestively.

"Let's just go buy the thing," Claude said with the blush more present then ever on his face. Rei grinned predatorily.

"Do you want to come with me or wait here?" Rei asked, knowing that Claude had an affinity to the sun. The eagle blader was very much like a bird; going where it was warm.

"I'll wait here," Claude said. "Hurry back, will you?" He almost regretted saying that when Rei gave him a perverted grin and a quick kiss before going off to the ice cream stand.

"Alright then..." Miguel said. "How did you two get together?" Rei and Claude exchanged glances, ending with Rei turning a smirk on Miguel. He opened his mouth but Claude covered it instantly, blushing slightly.

"Go, now!" Claude said, waving his hands in Kai's direction.

"How indeed?" Claude murmured to himself. He leaned back on the bench, smiling to himself as he thought of how it happened.

Flashback

"Claude?" Rei asked as he walked to the silver haired teenager on the mall bench. "What are you doing? It's practically boiling out here…"

"Is it?" Claude asked. "I didn't notice."

"How do you not burn?" Rei asked, glaring distastefully at the sun as he shielded his eyes. "You're so pale- no offense or anything."

"None taken. I thought you liked the sun?" Claude asked, now noticing that he was sweating.

"I do but this is ridiculous," Rei said, taking a seat next to Claude. "You seriously didn't notice this heat?"

"Well now that you mentioned it," Claude sighed. "Yeah, I do now notice it."

"Sorry…" Rei winced, grinning apologetically. "A smoothie for your thoughts? My treat." he offered, motioning to the smoothie store of the mall.

"I couldn't," Claude declined, shaking his head instantly. Rei noticed the blush present on his cheeks and he was pleased with himself. He had been chasing Claude for months and the silver haired eagle blader never seemed to notice or acknowledge his advances! It was quite frustrating, really.

"Oh, you could too," Rei said. "C'mon."

"H-hey!" Claude tried to protest but Rei had a good grip on his wrist and stubbornly held onto it. "You don't have to do this…" Claude said weakly.

"I don't have to," Rei agreed.

"So why are you doing this?" Claude asked, exasperated.

"Because I want to," Rei sighed. "Is that so hard to understand, Claude?" Claude blushed and looked away.

"Sorry…"

"Why are you apologizing?" Rei asked. "C'mon, cheer up." He gave Claude one of his heart warming smiles and was rewarded with a small smile from Claude.

"So what kind of smoothie do you want?" Rei asked.

"You can let go of my wrist, you know," Claude said.

"And have you run away? I don't think so," Rei said. "So? If you don't choose, I'll order you something-"

"Strawberry banana," Claude said.

"Alright then. That wasn't so hard now, was it?" Rei asked.

"You're…obnoxious," Claude frowned.

"So they tell me," Rei grinned. "But aren't I hot?"

"What?" Claude stuttered but Rei had turned his attention to the cashier, ordering their smoothies.

"So you want to sit at a table, a bench, or go to the park?" Rei asked.

"Actually, I'm waiting for Mattie and Miguel," Claude said. 'Did I imagine it?'

"Matilda and Miguel, huh?" Rei mused. "Are they an item?"

"Pardon me?" Claude started.

"Are they going out?" Rei clarified.

"N- no, no they aren't," Claude said, surprised at the straight forwardness. "Not that it's any of your business…" Rei grinned, handing him his smoothie.

"I like it when you get backbone," Rei declared. Claude blushed.

"Rei! We're leaving now!" Tyson shouted.

"Are you coming with us?" Max asked.

"I'm coming!" Rei shouted back. "I'll see you later." He kissed Claude's cheek, leaving the eagle blader with a smoothie in one hand and the other touching his cheek.

'Did…did he just…kiss me?' Claude thought.

"Claude? We're done shopping," Matilda said. "Sorry that we left you all alone…"

"It's alright…" Claude said.

"Are you sure, man?" Miguel asked worriedly.

"I'm sure… and I wasn't alone," Claude said.

"You weren't?" Miguel asked. "Who were you with?"

"Rei… from the Blade Breakers," Claude said, beginning to walk. Miguel and Matilda exchanged curious glances as they followed the quiet eagle blader."Because you're on the floor," Miguel said. Claude looked around and saw that it was true. He accepted Miguel's offered hand and pulled himself up.

"Claude, you alright man?" Miguel asked.

"I'm fine, why?" Claude asked.

"Thanks..." Claude said.

"What's bothering you, Claude?" Miguel asked.

"Nothing," Claude blushed.

"You haven't fallen off the bed and slept on the floor since Barthez was in charge," Miguel frowned. "And then there's that blush on your cheeks..." Claude blushed deeper and sat on his bed.

"Well..."

"You can tell me," Miguel encouraged.

"It's Rei," Claude admitted.

"Why? Did he do something to you? If he did, I swear-" Miguel cursed.

"No! No," Claude said. "He didn't do anything- well he did, but not in the way you're thinking-"

"Claude you're babbling," Miguel said.

"He kissed me!" Claude bluttered out.

"Oh..." Miguel said, sitting down next to Claude. "Well... do you like him?"

"I... I don't know," Claude said. "I mean, I've never thought about him in that way..."

"So why don't you try?" Miguel asked. "Thinking about him in that way, I mean. What do you like about him?"

"Well he's nice- but a pervert!" Claude hissed. Miguel raised his eyebrows. Claude and Rei had often been placed together when the Blade Breakers and the Battalian got together for practice sessions.

"And?" Miguel encouraged. "What else?"

"His eyes...they're like the sun," Claude sighed dreamily.

"Ah, you're sun affinity," Miguel said. "Keep going."

"I don't like it when I see him with other people," Claude said, "I...get jealous, I think... Jealous, right?"

"Right," Miguel confirmed. "You know, Claude, I think you like him."

"Wh-what?" Claude blushed. "I- I couldn't. I mean-"

"Come on, Claude. You let him take you places-"

"He drags me places," Claude pouted.

"You let him put his arm over your shoulders-"

"He won't take no for an answer!"

"You lean on him-"

"He pulls me in and won't let go!"

"You realize that you kicked his butt in martial arts training, correct?" Miguel asked. Claude paused.

"So what?" he asked.

"You could easily flip him when he puts his arm over your shoulders. You did it when Tyson did it and startled you," Miguel said. "And another point- you know him."

"What does that mean?" Claude asked.

"You remember that day you were talking to Mattie and your attention was totally on her and no one else?" Miguel asked.

"I give people my full attention," Claude said, shifting uncomfortably. "So what?"

"Tyson came up to you and put his arm around your shoulders and before he even opened his mouth to ask you his question, you already had him on the ground," Miguel said. Claude winced. "And when Rei did it when you were talking to Kai, you did nothing. You just kept on talking to Kai casually and told Rei to go away." Claude blushed.

"We spend a lot of time together."

"You get jealous when he's with other people," Miguel reminded him. "Well listen. There's a BBA meeting tonight at seven. We'll see him there so decide then, alright?" Claude nodded as Miguel patted his shoulder and went to go take a shower.

Claude sighed and laid on the bed. Where was this going?

Me: Okay, tell me how you like this one and I'll get the second chapter up!

Kai: Weren't you going to make this a one shot?

Me: Eh heh...

Rei: Please review!
