Authors Notes: Wow. I finally finished one of my many fics! Er.. yea, this is a shonen-ai/boy love fic. If you don't like that kind of thing, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!! ^_^ There! Oh and I don't own Beyblade (even though it's a great Anime!) or Froot Loops, it's my favorite cereal! This is a KAIxREI (I prefere the Japanese spelling of his name, Rei, rather than Ray) romance story, so read at your own risk! I'm not sure what happened in Rei's past with the White Tigers so I just made it up. Sorry if it's not accurate! Anyway, enough of that, on with the fic....!

A Wish Can Come True

By: SilverDeathscythe

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Rei sighed and glanced at the clock that rested on a small table to his right. It was 3 A.M. and he couldn't sleep. I just can't stop thinking about him.! Once again, Kai had entered his mind and refused to leave, filling Rei with visions and desires for the blue and gray haired beyblader. It was no surprise to himself that he liked Kai, it was probably even painfully obvious to the other members of his team, including the one he loved. But he would never admit it to them, he still had his pride to hold onto.

And then there was Mariah. she was another problem. He hurt her so badly once, although it had been quite a while ago. Rei sat up in his bed and remembered how he had betrayed his whole gang, the White Tigers, by running away from an important match in a Beyblade Championship. But that wasn't all, oh no, it was much worse! He and Mariah had agreed to meet in the park after the match for a date and even though Rei hadn't attended the match, Mariah was confident he would show up for their date! She had so much confidence and trust in him, she never dreamed that he would let her down. But he did. Rei felt a tear trail down his cheek at the memories. but he had to do it! He just couldn't be with her and pretend to love her, it just didn't work that way!

He sighed in frustration. Mariah had never even tried to understand, even after he had told her why he couldn't be with her. She was too far into their relationship to turn back and even now, he knew she still held strong feelings for him. Of course, that didn't mean that his feelings had returned for her. His heart belonged to someone else, someone who could never know the truth. Kai was cold-hearted and never felt emotions like most people. I'll bet he's never fallen in love before, or ever even experienced true happiness for that matter.

Rei had to see him, he had to see him now. He knew that he could make Kai happy, if only he was given the chance he would care for the other beyblader and actually make him smile. I'll bet he looks even better with a smile on his face, instead of a permanent glare. he thought. The image in his mind was beautiful indeed. He pictured Kai laughing while he tickled him, smiling when they held hands and showed passion when they kissed. It was all so perfect, so unobtainable and out of reach.

Rei stood up and slipped out of bed and quietly left his room. Kai's bedroom was only down the hall and being with the White Tigers for so long taught him to be extremely quiet and stealthy. His light footsteps couldn't be heard on the wooden floor as he neared the door. It was open slightly but the lights were out so more than likely, Kai was asleep. Then again, isn't everyone? It's 3:30 in the morning after all.

Rei crept into the dark bedroom, quietly making his way to the large bed near the back of the room. The moonlight that filtered in through the window cast an eerie glow over the shadows that awaited him. He neared the edge of the bed and gazed lovingly upon Kai's serene face, it held none of the anger and coldness that was seen during the day. You're so sweet when you don't have someone to yell at. He thought and gently brushed his hand over Kai's face. He noticed that his trademark blue triangles weren't there, exposing his completely beautiful and flawless skin.

He gasped as Kai stirred in his sleep and mumbled something incoherent before laying still once again. I'd better get out of here before he wakes up and catches me in his room. And with that, Rei placed a feather light kiss on Kai's cheek and turned to leave, unaware of the crimson eyes that were watching him, following his every movement until he had left the room.

Kai sighed and closed his eyes once again, although he had never been asleep in the first place. That was totally unexpected! Never had he imagined that Rei would think of him in that way. And now. what am I supposed to think? I guess it doesn't really matter, I just wasn't prepared for that. he did just kiss me after all! In all his honesty, Kai didn't know what he felt for Rei. It wasn't something he even needed to think about, until now! He smiled as he remember how gentle Rei was and placed his hand on his cheek. I suppose I did enjoy it, not really an everyday thing now is it? he thought. Maybe he would just get some sleep and tomorrow this would all just be a dream, a wonderful, mysterious dream.

* * * * *

The morning light shone in on Rei, sleeping peacefully after seeing his love last night. He awoke to the sound of banging on his door but ignored it and checked his clock. He groaned. It's only 8:30?? I am NOT getting up this early dammit. He thought and put a pillow over his head to block out the noise. His eyes snapped open when he heard his door swing open. Rei feared the worst because knowing Tyson and his friends, they would try to wake him up in some bizarre, usually painful, way! One time, Tyson had thrown a bucket of ice water over Max just to get him out of bed! The rest of the Bladebreakers had awoken to the sounds of screaming and cursing from the blond haired boy. He threw the pillow off his head and sat up to show that it wasn't necessary to do something drastic. "Ok I'm up, what do you want??" Rei asked groggily.

"I need to talk to you." said a voice that was a bit deeper than Tyson's. Rei's eyes shot open and fixed on Kai who was leaning against the doorway. He was wearing black jeans and a sleeveless white top. He also wore a spiked bracelet and Rei noticed the freshly painted triangles on Kai's face. Well that's a nice sight to wake up to in the morning! He thought and smiled to himself before remembering something. "Uh. what is it Kai?" Rei asked quietly. He was afraid that somehow Kai had found out about last night!

Kai's eyes focused on Rei's gold ones. "Tyson thinks we should take a day off, to relax and not train for the Championships that are being held in two weeks." He said, "What do you think?"

Rei nodded and leaned back. It wasn't often that Kai came to him for an opinion. "I think it would be a good idea. we really have been training hard lately!" he replied.

"Alright. but tomorrow it's back to practicing!" said Kai as he turned around and left, closing the door behind him. Rei let out a breath he didn't even realize he was holding and smiled, maybe today he could spend time with the other beyblader! Well. no use in wasting my only day off! And with that, he stood up and headed to the shower.

* * * * *

Kai sighed as he heard the shower running. He didn't act any differently this morning but Kai had finally realized that he liked Rei. a lot. Rei was the only person who actually got along well with him and showed kindness. .not to mention he IS very attractive! Kai blushed as he thought about how good Rei had looked in the moonlight last night, it glistened off his silky black hair and made his golden eyes seem even more radiant!

When he arrived at the kitchen, Max was sitting at the table eating a bowl of cereal and reading a comic book, as usual.

"Morning! Sleep well Kai?" The freckled blond asked. He always found it strange how Max could be so cheerful, even in the worst situations. Kai walked over to the table and pulled up a chair, preparing a bowl of cereal for himself. He stared down into the bowl of strange colored rings.

"What is this stuff?" Kai asked, ignoring Max's first question. He really didn't feel like telling him that all he could think about lately was a certin black-haired beyblader, therefore he didn't get much sleep.

Max laughed at the curious look on Kai's face, "They're called Froot Loops. And don't look at me like that, Tyson bought them!"

Figures. Anyone else would have more sense and buy something not so. colorful. Oh well, can't be that bad. He thought and poured a bit of milk on his cereal. He tasted them and to his surprise, actually found them pretty good!

A few moments later, Rei walked into the kitchen as well. Max looked up to greet him but just stayed silent with his mouth hanging open. His eyes held a look of complete and utter disbelief.

Kai glanced up from his cereal to see what Max was looking at and nearly choked on his Froot Loops! Rei was dressed in one of his normal, traditional style outfits but he had untied the ribbon that kept the long part of his hair in place. Now, his hair hung loose down to his knees!!

"What? I have to do that sometimes to wash all my hair!" Rei said, laughing at the expressions on his friends' faces. "Don't worry, I'll fix it later. anyway, where's Tyson and the Chief?"

Max recovered from his shock and replied, "They went out a while ago to look at some spare parts for Tyson's beyblade."

Rei nodded and sat down. "So what are your plans for today? It's not often that Sunshine over there gives us a day off!"

Kai glared at Rei but said nothing, knowing the other boy was only teasing. Max chuckled and blushed a little bit. "Actually, I have to meet a friend of mine in an hour. She wants me to go see a movie with her."

Rei smiled. "Got a girlfriend, hmm?"

"Well, n-not really. kinda." Max stammered, causing Rei to laugh.

"Just be home before dark!"

"Shut up." Max said with a chuckle before heading to his room to get ready.



Kai pushed his empty bowl aside and gazed at Rei, even with the extremely long hair he still looked gorgeous. Of course Rei didn't notice, he was too busy trying to decide weather or not he should try the strangely colored cereal that Kai was just eating. This was the perfect opportunity to be alone with Rei. After the black haired beauty shoved away the cereal with disinterest, Kai asked. "I'm going out for a walk around town in a while, care to join me?"

Rei perked up and smiled, "Sure, just let me put my hair up first." He said as he too headed up to his room. Kai let a secret grin spread across his lips, this was going to be a good day, he could tell!

* * * * *

As Rei fixed his hair he couldn't help but daydream. Kai, the cold lone wolf, had just asked him out! Well Ok, maybe not. but still! I get to spend the day with him, without the other three tagging along! He made sure he looked extra good and went to find Kai, who was waiting for him outside.

"That's better!" Kai said, nodding at the now neatly sustained black hair. Rei laughed in agreement and the two headed off.

They went sight-seeing and checked out a few stores along the way until they ended up at the local zoo and had a look around. Rei, of course, wanted to see the tigers! Rei smiled, it felt so good to be with him like this, not once had the gotten into an argument or disagreement about anything! He smiled wistfully, maybe today he could finally tell Kai how he really felt, even though he still didn't think Kai could ever feel the same way.

They eventually arrived at an ice cream stand and each bought an ice cream cone. Rei had vanilla and Kai had chocolate. They found a bench and sat down to eat their treats in silence, watching the sunset together. Rei couldn't decide which was more beautiful, the setting sun or the boy sitting next to him. I think I know the answer to that. Rei thought, admiring the fine curves and muscles in Kai's body and his sexy red eyes. He was everything Rei had ever wanted and more because he knew that deep down, Kai was really a soft hearted, caring person.

Kai glanced over at Rei with a questioning look on his face. The way the other boy was staring at him made Kai a little nervous, what would happen now? He knew that he liked Rei and it was obvious that Rei liked him but. was that vanilla ice cream on the side of the other boys mouth? Kai started to snicker, which received a curious look from his companion.

"You. you have some." Kai laughed and just gave in to the temptation. He reached over and pulled Rei closer. The other boys face began to heat up and he blushed a brilliant shade of red as he realized what was happening. He stared into Kai's scarlet eyes as he felt a delicate tongue sweep across the corner of his mouth, capturing the dab of ice cream that he didn't even know was there. Could this be it..? Rei thought, noticing that Kai didn't pull away after he licked off the ice cream. Could this be what I've been waiting for, after all this time? Kai's voice deepened and he whispered into Rei's ear, telling him, "I wasn't asleep."

Rei's heart stopped dead. He was awake? Last night? Dread began to flood his body as he wondered what Kai must think of him now. More than likely, Kai had only gotten close just to tease him, to remind him of what was off limits. Rei gasped and pulled back slightly with a look of fear in his eyes. This wasn't supposed to happen, Kai wasn't supposed to ever find out! But he did. so the only thing he could do now was accept it and take whatever Kai threw at him. I guess this little 'day out' was just a way to get me alone so he could question me about it. Rei thought, his heart filling with sadness.

Kai noticed the look on Rei's face and smiled gently, trying to calm him down and show him that he wasn't mad. But only one real solution came to his mind. Kai leaned over and gently kissed Rei, savoring the taste of the other boys lips against his. Rei suddenly understood what Kai was telling him and eagerly kissed back pushing his tongue past Kai's lips to deepen the kiss. Kai hungrily explored Rei's mouth as he wrapped his arms around the other boys neck and ran his hands through his raven hair.

They finally broke apart for air and Kai smiled as Rei's eyes shone brightly with happiness. He knew he was blushing heavily but didn't care as he took Rei's hand in his. "Shall we head home?"

Rei nodded and they stood up. Together, hand-in-hand, they began to walk . Rei snuggled into Kai and thought about how lucky he was. This was what he always wanted, Kai was his! All mine.! He thought as they continued back to where they were staying. Both of them were too wrapped up in each other to notice the flash of pink and white that disappeared behind a near- by tree. A few silver tears sparkled where she had been.
