LV: Hi! Heh, it's my first yaoi story, though it does seem kinda one-sided. O.o;

Aya: :D *cackles* Yesh! Vera fun! Bask in the joys of Tyka goodness!

LV: *sighs, then puts Aya in a bottle* Excuse her. She's my kooky guardian fairy/muse. She goes for any romance challenge. Especially opposites in personality and life-long friend ones. 'Cept for Mariah, she doesn't like her too much.

Aya: *from the bottle* It's the pink! It's the FRIGGIN' PINK!!!!!

LV: O.o; Eh… see what I mean?

Forever for You

(Kai's POV)

I watch you from my usual position away from the others, memorizing every move, every detail as you goof off with Max. I can't help but growl mentally as an all-too-common bubble of jealousy makes itself known in my gut as the gold-haired boy tackles you and starts his tickling assault, earning silver peals of laughter from you.

It really is unfair. I don't like how easily the others--even Kenny and that annoying laptop of his, for God's sake--can make you laugh. I could make you laugh louder, but I can't. I just can't.

I've lived in this shell too long, I can't just let myself go like that. As much as I want to, I simply can't.

But you've been patient. You pushed and prodded at me to lighten up, to not take life so seriously. Though I'd never admit it or let anyone catch me, I do give a small smile when you call me a sourpuss.

Face the facts: you're cute when you're mad. Especially when you get all pouty; you may look childish, but it suits you so well.

Every night before I go to sleep, I thank the Gods for sending you to me. You're a guardian angel.

Wait, scratch that--you're MY guardian angel. Not the team's, though it may seem like it, and most certainly not anyone else's. Mine. My blue-haired storm. My angelic dragon.

My Tyson.

Yeah, I know I sound possessive. But when you've lived my life, who wouldn't be? I was raised to be the best, to fight for what I've earned, to not let ANYONE get in the way to my goal.

In this case, you.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be without you, then I'd immediately banish the thought. Because for one thing, that would be far worse than losing any battle. For another, I have absolutely no idea how life would be without you, besides very quiet and dull.

I really do care about you. If only you could see that. The sly looks Rei's been giving me for a while now tell me he knows. Every time I drag you off to practice--not like you really need it, but you do need to keep your skills up--I always note that Max gives us a not-so-innocent wink. Even Dizzi and Kenny seem to be getting into the act. Bah, "subliminal messages", my ass. I'm half expecting them to hang a neon sign around my neck with the words, "I LOVE TYSON KINOMIYA" on it in bold, flashing letters. The only one who doesn't seem to notice is you.

But then again, you aren't the sharpest tool in the shed, anyway.

Every time I see you with someone else, being your usual friendly, goofy self, I get really pissed off. You normally blow it off as me being a "wet blanket" or something along that line, but the others know what it is.

Rei once nearly told you in his usual subtle way about my possessive jealous streak, oddly enough, with a easily slipped-in joke about seeing my eyes flash from red to green. Being around Christmas, you simply added that I might've been getting into the spirit for once.

While I let you and Max laugh it off, Rei ended up getting extra practice time. He hasn't done anything like that since.

I'd rather tell you myself than let the others clue you in. I know for a fact you're not as clueless as you make yourself out to be. If anything, I know you'd rather hear this from me than let the others tell you, too.

Though it is hard for me to admit, and especially hard for you to hear, I do love you, even if it doesn't show. Even if it takes to the end of time, I'll wait for you, as you did for me.

I'd wait forever for you.

Forever.

~End.

LV: Well, this was quite sweet. ^_^

Aya: Yeah, considering you act almost identical to Kai, anyway, his POV shouldn't be too hard for you.

LV: ¬.¬; It always unnerves me how you can get out of the bottle so easily.

Aya: ^_^ Just doin' my job! *to the readers* Hey, should we do one in Tyson's POV about Kai?

LV: Review, flame, whatever. Be warned. I have low self-esteem and one hell of a temper; it's past midnight right now, and I really need to get to bed before my parents discover I'm still here.

CL (Chibi Link): *pops in* But we'd prefer it if you reviewed! That way, I don't have to waste my fire arrows on anyone.

Aya: Just like that kid to say something like that!

CL: *ignoring Aya* Review, please! ^_^
