I was reading different prompts online and found a prompt that inspired this idea - though I have no clue why because it's nothing like it. Whatever, this is what I came up with for chapter one. I have no idea how long it'll be but I have an idea as to where it's going. I have too much free time on my hands so I'll hopefully be updating this ASAP, as well as writing other fics for other couples on here.

Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade or any of its characters (sadly). Any unrecognizable characters were created by me and belong to me.

Warnings: Yaoi, don't like it don't read it please. I don't know how far I'll go, depends on my mood and how bored I get. :P Hope you like it, review to tell me what you think!

Chapter One

"Can I help you?" A sweet but professional voice asked.

From Rei's place near the door, slightly wide liquid gold eyes focused on the large front desk where the sweet voice came from. A soft thankful smile graced a gentle face and he nodded, walking forward. She pushed aside some papers that were neatly stacked and turned her attention to him. She was dressed considerably well so Rei was sure she was getting a good pay check working just as front desk secretary. There was another woman a few feet away, also sitting behind the desk.

"I have an interview." Rei said, voice quiet. "With um, Kai Hiwatari."

For a moment mild shock crossed her face when her boss was mentioned before nodding and smiling, looking at her computer with her fingers hovering above the keyboard.

"Name?" She questioned, looking up for a moment.

"Rei Kon." He answered. She nodded and typed in his name, moving the mouse for a moment before nodding.

"Alright, just let me inform Mr. Hiwatari." She said. He nodded, feeling fluttering nervousness in the pit of his stomach. She dialled something before touching the blue-tooth attached to her ear.

Rei looked around as she spoke to Kai. To say Hiwatari Industries was huge was an understatement. With high ceilings, marble floors, cream walls without a mark, a seating area with comfortable yet designer chic couches, and large windows as well as the huge glass front door; Rei felt intimidated. Of course, he knew Kai from beyblading four years ago, but in those four years he'd only seen the Russian once at a reunion party two years ago – and even then Kai had mostly stayed around his Russian friends. Rei sighed quietly as he watched the secretary end the call with a nod.

"Alright, I'll escort you to Mr. Hiwatari's office." She said, pushing back her chair and standing.

He nodded and stepped forward to be about half a step behind her. They began to walk, her high heels clicking on the marble floors. He followed her into the elevator and stood half-awkwardly with her beside him. Kai was on the top floor and there was fifteen floors so they had a partly long ride up. Rei shifted his weight slightly, being able to see himself in the mirrors that were on the three walls of the elevator. His bangs fell to his eyebrows with some longer strands near his temples. His hair, which he had trimmed more since he had been a blader, was tied up in a blue wrap, coming down to mid-back. His hair was still raven black and his sin was still lightly sun-kissed, he just looked older. His features were slightly more defined, and he was taller; yet he still had the same nature with things.

The elevator made a bright 'ding' sound and the doors slid open. The secretary stepped out first and began to lead him down a long hallway that was nothing but windows. It was very high up and Rei was amazed by the sight of everything.

"Incredible right?" The secretary said to him, slowing her walk slightly. He nodded, looking at her. "I remember when I had my interview here. I was so nervous. He's so intimidating sometimes." She admitted tucking some auburn hair behind her ear. She looked to be about his age, maybe a year younger, and he took an immediate liking to her. If he got the job he was sure she would be a good friend.

"I used to be on Kai's beyblading team when we were teenagers, but we haven't spoken a word since the team retired." He admitted She seemed surprised but nodding, walking beside him down the hall that was long but nearing its end. "He was intimidating back then too." His voice had quieted.

"I'm sure you'll get the job, what area are you applying for?" She said. He smiled.

"I don't know how drunk I had been when I sent in my resume, but I applied for his personal secretary." He answered. She laughed, smiling with perfectly white teeth.

"You must have been suicidal. The last secretary for him lasted three weeks." She commented. He laughed with her and they reached the large doors to Kai's office. "I'm Kyla by the way." She said, offering her hand as they stopped walking. He smiled, taking it for a moment.

"Nice to meet you." He said. She smiled and nodded, stepping back.

"Good luck." She wished him before turning and beginning to walk away.

He stood in front of the doors as he listened to the sound of her high heels clicking against the marble floors, and then the elevator opening, then closing. And then it was deadly silent. Rei closed his eyes and took a deep breath before opening one of the doors. He took a step into the room, feeling his feet sink about a centimetre into dark crimson carpeting. His eyes trailed to the large dark cherry wood desk that had a large desktop Mac computer screen on it with a small mouse next to it. There were no pictures on the desk, nothing personal about it except for the golden name display that had Kai Hiwatari carved into it. And sitting behind the desk in a large, comfortable looking black chair was Kai Hiwatari himself.

Crimson eyes looked up, meeting Rei's golden eyes. Rei felt his breath quicken, his heart racing in his chest as he stared back. They were both silent for a moment, taking in each other, before Kai stood. Rei blinked and walked forward, the door closing and enclosing them in Kai's office. Kai nodded sticking out a hand. Rei gave a small smile, taking his hand and shaking it firmly.

"You've changed." Rei commented as he sat in a chair across the desk from Kai.

"So have you." Kai commented, sitting in his chair.

He guided his mouse for a second, clicking something and letting his eyes scan it. Rei assumed it was his resume which he and Lee had gone over about three million times while going through a six pack of beer, before sending it in. Kai's eyes looked back to Rei and Rei held back the shudder. Kai seemed to look at him for another moment as Rei awkwardly looked around the office, trying to appear comfortable. Kai smirked, turning himself to be face on with Rei.

"Alright. Why did you apply?" Kai questioned. Rei blinked, looking at him.

God his voice still sounded amazing. It was lower than it had been the last time they spoke, but it still had that slight Russian drawl Kai had from speaking Russian for so many years. Rei felt his cheeks heat up with a blush, realizing Kai was waiting for an answer.

"I uh..." Rei blanked.

The truth to Kai's question was that Rei had bumped into Tyson and Max, who had become a couple a year after the Bladebreakers had broken up. After talking for a couple minutes, Rei had asked if they had talked to Kai at all. Max said no but Tyson said he had been in his office building the other day, to do their check on their security that they had every month. After talking about the magnificence of the building for a couple minutes, he had mentioned that Kai had been talking to someone about hiring a new secretary. Rei's eyes had lit up and that night he had been putting together his resume with Lee who he roomed with in an apartment.

"I heard of the job when I was out one day, and thought I'd apply since I know you. I thought I might be able to do a good job considering I lived with you and the other Bladebreakers for quite awhile, so I'd u-understand your um, personality." Rei answered, which impressed himself. He only stuttered once.

"Right." Kai said, frowning lightly and looking at the screen for a moment. "You're still with Mariah?" Kai questioned, voice flat. Rei frowned lightly in confusion, shaking his head slightly.

"No, we haven't been together since I was seventeen, and even then it didn't last that long." He answered. Kai frowned.

"At the reunion party you two looked together." He accused. Rei blushed lightly. "Then again, I guess you were being rather adventurous." He added, narrowing his eyes very slightly.

"I was drunk." He admitted, pushing back the memory of that night. Kai raised a fine eyebrow.

"I thought you didn't drink." He commented.

"I've changed." He replied. He wasn't about to admit he was drinking away the harsh pain Kai himself had inflicted by barely saying a word more than 'hi' at the party.

"And what changed things between you two?" He questioned, eyes locking with Rei's seriously. Rei smiled.

"She was missing certain things." He answered lightly. Like a penis. He would have loved to add.

If that subtle hint didn't show it, Rei knew for a fact he was gay. There was no confusion with him and his sexuality, he was into guys not girls. He had known this since he was fourteen, but had never shared it with anyone other than Lee who kept loyal with the secret. Rei was thankful to have an understanding best friend like that. Honestly, Rei wouldn't have minded Kai knowing when they were teenagers if it meant they could be closer, bluntly because he wanted Kai to devour him. All those nights they had roomed together and Rei had felt so frustrated, laying so close to the one he so desired.

"Mmmm." Kai hummed. "Why do you think you qualify, other than knowing my personality?"

Rei blushed and looked down at his hands for a moment. If he was being truthful he probably didn't qualify for the job. He wasn't anything special. His whole wardrobe was probably worth two hundred dollars, he shared an apartment with his best friend where they split the rent as two fifty each. He wasn't dating because he was too shy to really get out there and could never get over a certain Russian that held him back from his life. Maybe that was why he had applied. A small hope that maybe once they were working together, or Rei working for Kai more specifically, something would spark between them. He shivered, shifting his weight in the chair slightly as he felt Kai's cold crimson eyes on him. Kyla was right, he was still very intimidating.

"I'm twenty years old and ready to work. After leaving my last job, I figured I should start to work for my future; and then I decided this was the place to start. I know I could be beneficial to you Kai, because I work hard to work to satisfaction and can work well with people." Rei answered, letting out a quiet breath after he spoke because to him that sounded satisfactory. Kai studied him for another moment before nodding, taking out a file and slipping out four pieces of paper that were stapled neatly together.

"Rei Kon, you're hired." He said, and Rei felt his heart jump. "You just need to sign a couple places before you can leave."

Rei nodded and stood, grabbing one of the pens on Kai's desk and leaning over. Kai pointed to the first place and he signed neatly and quickly. Kai leaned over a bit more to flip the pages and Rei could smell his expensive cologne. His head felt light because the scent was so familiar, making his heart race. Kai glanced at him, red eyes meeting his liquid gold ones.

"And here." He murmured. Rei forced himself not to shudder and quickly signed albeit a bit shakily this time.

Kai nodded and straightened, clearing his throat as he slipped the pages back into the file. Rei was sure he should have read over it because he didn't even know how much he was getting paid, but he didn't care, though he should because he owed rent at the end of the month and Lee had paid it full last month. Lee had assured him it was fine because Rei had been unemployed, but Rei had felt bad nonetheless.

"You start on Monday, be here at eight sharp. Come to my office and I'll give you further instruction from there." Kai said.

"Yes thank-"

Rei was cut off by the door opening rather loudly, Kai's eyes flickering up with a glare to whoever had entered. Rei turned slightly, eyes widening a fraction to see a tall lean redhead smirking in the door way.

"My my, never thought I'd see you again kitty cat." Tala said, icy blue eyes looking straight at him.

Rei's heart raced and he felt his palms get sweatier.

"Come here Rei, I won't bite." He said, implying so much more with his words.

"Come here Rei, I won't bite." Tala had murmured leaning against the wall. Rei had narrowed his eyes, taking a few steps forward. Tala smirked. "I know your secret." He murmured. Rei's eyes widened slightly, hoping he didn't mean what he thought he did. "Oh please, don't look so surprised. You were practically staring at him during the supper." Rei blushed, realizing he had in fact been too obvious.

Tala sighed, looking quite amused. Rei frowned, feeling his heart racing.

"You're not going to tell him are you?" Rei said, trying to keep his voice steady and appear perfectly fine.

"He is my best friend, why wouldn't I tell him Rei?" Tala said, voice low. Rei shivered.

"Please..." He pleaded quietly. Tala smirked again, much too Kai-like.

"Convince me not to." He challenged. Rei frowned, confused. Tala chuckled, stepping away from the wall to be right in front of Rei, looking down at him with those icy blue eyes. The redhead rested a hand on Rei's hip, pulling him closer. "Show me why I shouldn't tell him Rei." He breathed, vodka laced breath blowing over Rei's face.

Rei swallowed, understanding now. He was left with no choice, and he felt his heart beat faster. A shaky hand reached up to touch Tala's neck in false kindness, and he moved upwards. Tala met part of the distance, and then there was no distance at all. Tala's lips were warm and soft against Rei's, and the lingering taste of vodka was on them. Tala bit his lower lip cruelly and Rei gasped lightly, giving Tala his opportunity. His tongue curled into his mouth, exploring the warm moist cavern. Rei knew he had to be convincing enough so he made his tongue curl around Tala's, closing his eyes to try and forget who he was kissing.

He was beginning to feel light headed from lack of oxygen and tried to pull away but Tala's hands tightened their hold. He whimpered, feeling the room spin and one of Tala's hands undoing the button on his pants. The door opened then, spilling light into the dark bedroom they had been in. Kai stood there with Tyson and Max behind him, looking surprised. Tala chuckled, breaking their kiss easily. Rei slumped back against the wall, closing his eyes and focusing on breathing for a moment. He opened his eyes to see Kai's glare to the both of them, the harshest he'd seen it.

"Oh come on, we were just having fun!" Tala exclaimed, following Kai as the Russian turned and walked out without a word to either of them. And that was it. Rei closed his eyes, feeling defeated.

The next morning, after he had woken up all by himself in his hotel room and had gone downstairs for breakfast with everyone, he had been hurt to find out that the Russian all went back to Russia.

Rei sucked in a small breath, looking straight at Tala who smirked. The redhead stepped forward, ruffling his bangs. Rei frowned, bottom lip jutting out in a slight pout-like manner. Tala laughed, icy blue eyes landing on Kai.

"Miss me?" He questioned.

"Not really." Kai answered airily. He looked at Rei who walked to the door. "Monday." He said to the male. Rei stopped and smiled lightly, looking at Kai.

"Right. Monday." He smiled and walked out, hearing their voices faintly as he walked down the long glassed in hallway to the elevator. "Monday." He muttered, standing in the elevator. "Monday."

So that's the first chapter! Hopefully it wasn't horrible, it's a quite lengthy chapter for me. Hope you liked it :D
