Sorry, but I couldn't think of Rei and Kai's parent's names, so I just made them up. Once again I'm sorry. I'm also sorry if any of the names are real.

Long Lost Love

Chapter 1: Kai and Rei Meet (part 1)

A young, 13 years old Rei Kon was waiting in the living room, in one of the many mansions the Hiwatari's owned. He was there with his parents, waiting for Lao and Lily Hiwatari, and along with their son, Kai, who he was to share was to share a room with for the next two years. See, his parents were here in Russia to work at one of the research building for a game called Beyblade that was becoming very popular. They were staying here because of two reasons. One, they had to work with the Hiwatari's at the building and two. They were his parent's best friends, so they trusted them, or so that's what they told Rei. That wasn't the only reason they were here in Russia, the other reason was so that Kai and Rei would get to know the other. They were betrothed since birth but only the parents knew that. They had planned it since Cho and Lily found out they got pregnant around the same time. All four of them, best friends since high school.

Anyway, as they sat down in the living room for ten minutes, the Hiwatari's made their way out. A man of 36, a woman of 34 and a teen of 13, walked out. Lao had short blue and gray hair with piercing blue eyes. Lily, had long black hair that went to the middle of her back, who had piercing crimson eyes. Kai had his father's hair and his mother's eyes. Rei looked at him and couldn't stop staring. It was really hard not to. See, Rei was gay, which was really good to the parent's plans and thankfully, Kai was too. When Kai saw Rei, he did the same thing; he couldn't look away from Rei.

"Cho, Kurai, it's really good to see, when was the last time?" Lily said/asked.

"Thirteen years? When we found out about being pregnant." Cho said. "This must be Kai. I last saw you when your mom was still pregnant. Anyway this is Rei." Cho said pushing Rei up to stand in front of her. Kai and Rei still had their eyes locked.

"Kai, Why don't you show Rei were he'll be staying. And then show him round town, it's a beautiful day." Lily said turning towards Kai. Following his eyes she saw Kai and Rei staring at the other one. A small smile graced her lips. She gave a Kai a small push that knocked him out of his daze. He looked at his mother.

"What?"

"Take Rei and help him take his stuff up to your room and then show him around town." His mother repeated.

"Oh…ok…come on Rei." Kai said with a small blush on his face, bending down to pick up some of Rei's things. He brought up the stuff up to his room, Rei following. Kai having the nerve to ask a question like this did.

"Hey Rei, Are you gay, bi, or straight?" at the sound of the question, Rei blushed deeper then Kai's eyes.

"Umm… should that really matter?"

"Well…yeah I mean we are going to share the same bed, unless you wanna sleep on the floor."

"I'll share a bed… to answer your question…I'm gay."

"Good then I won't mind…sharing a bed with you."

"Why is that?"

"Cause I am to."

"Oh ok." Rei said smiling. As they made their way in Kai's room, they set his stuff on the bed then headed out into the city for the grand tour.

Walking down the street. Kai and Rei entered a coffee place where his best friends worked, Tala and Bryan. As he walked up to them he tried to introduce them.

"Rei this is-"

"Tala and Bryan" Rei finished for him.

"How'd you know their names?"

"Because when I was last here in Russia. I ended up staying at Tala's. It was before they moved here."

"Oh yeah now I remember you…I used to call him kitten!! He would blush every time to it was sooo cute." Tala said a with a smirk as Rei blushed. Kai looked at Rei and smiled. Tala seeing this pulled him away from Rei and Bryan.

"You like Rei don't you?" Tala said with a smirk. Kai blushed.

"I don't know, I just meet him today and I just can't stop staring at him. I keep catching him staring at me too. I think I might like him." Kai said with a blush.

"He does like you. He acted a little like when I meet him but he was…I don't know blushing but when ever your name has been said or when you look at him, he goes all red, like your eyes. It's like real love. Ahh maybe it is love. What happens to you when you're around him?"

"My heart speeds up…my stomach gets all knotted and I go light headed."

"That's how I feel when I'm with Bryan…so yeah you're in love with the kitten!"

"Stop calling him that!!!!" Kai yelled at his redheaded friend.

"See you are…your defending him!" At the thought of loving the neko, he blushed and went back to Rei. Rei and Bryan had been talking about what had happened in their lived since they last saw each other. How Tala and Bryan had gotten together. Ever since Rei was small, he knew they liked each other but never this much.

"Rei can we go I have talk to you." Kai said when he went back to his newfound love.

"Uhh… sure. See ya later guys." Rei said being dragged out of the coffee shop. Kai and Rei walked down the street as it stared to rain. They ran to the nearest park to stop and wait till the rain ended or at least slowed down. They walked to a large willow tree and sat down at the base, where they couldn't get wet. Rei sitting down, Kai sitting down next to him. Rei shivered from the cold and moved closer to Kai. Kai felling the closeness, he blushed again. Rei turned to look at Kai and saw the blush. Rei smirked and nudged Kai's arm, getting his attention. Kai looked down to ask why he did that.

"Because you were blushing for the fifth time today. When you were talking to Tala, I saw that blushes you had on. Its cute though." Rei said with a smirk.

"Your cute too when you blush or not." Kai whispered in Rei's ear. Rei blushed once again, deeper then Kai's eyes. Rei looked into Kai's eyes and saw love and the want to kiss the black haired teen. They looked at each other's eyes and slowly moved in. Closer and closer, inch by inch, they were just a 2 cm a part when…

"Rei? Is that you?" meet their ears. They looked up to see two guys that had confused faces on. Rei looking toward them remembered them from when he was in Japan.

"Tyson? Max? Is it you?"

"Up it sure is us." Tyson said running toward Rei. Not meaning to, he pushed Kai out of the way and hugged Rei with all his might. Max walked over to help Kai of the ground.

"Sorry about that it's just we haven't seen Rei for… for…5 years? I think?" turning to Tyson and Rei.

"Yeah about that…um Tyson? I can't breath." Rei said trying to push Tyson off of him.

"Ohh sorry Rei. Like Max said its been forever I just didn't think we'd see you here in Russia. What are you doing here? Another one of your parents' jobs?"

"That and other thinks, I think they're planning something. I've heard them whispering to them self's when they think I'm not listening. They keep talking about the one I'm betrothed to. So I came to one conclusion, I'm marring someone here in Russia." Rei said looking at each of the other teens. "So what are you two doing here?" Rei asked turning to Max and Tyson.

"We're here one vacation. Mr. D said we could finally take some off together and we decided to come here. We haven't been seeing each other lately due to the battles. I missed him so much." Tyson explained to Rei.

"You two are still together?"

"Up we are. But now that we know someone here, we won't be so bored just traveling."

"Sure actually, I just got here myself and I meet Kai, his is the house I'm staying at, and guess this. I'm staying here for two years. So I know my parents are planning something." Rei mumbles out the last part. "Anyway Kai and me better get back to his house the sun is setting. It reminds me of Japan around this time. Anyway bye, bye, guys so you later." Rei said turning around and grabbing Kai's hand. Tyson and Max saw Kai with a slight blush, both giggled.

"They make a cute couple don't they?" Max asked Tyson after they were out of hearing range.

"Yeah they do. If they do get together it would make Rei really happy. Anyway now that the sun is setting we probably should get back to the hotel." Tyson said grabbing Max's hand and walked back to their hotel.

------------------With Rei and Kai-----------------

As the sun set, Kai and Rei made their way back to Kai's house. Rei behind Kai all the way back to the house since he had remembered when he grabbed Kai's hand. He didn't say anything before but he had noticed Kai's blush, when he grabbed his hand. Kai was thinking to him self all the way back.

'Why had Rei grabbed my hand? It felt nice, like I could feel love radiating from his hand. Either that or it was mine that was doing the love radiating from the hand. Either way, it felt nice. I wonder what Rei is doing all the way back there.' Kai though as he turned his head slightly to see Rei staring at him with a gaze that could melt anyone to their knees. Kai saw the look and quickly turned, blushing more red then his eyes. When Rei had caught Kai looking at him, he looked into Kai's eyes, he saw love.

'Was that love or something else. I hope it was love, even though I just meet him, I'm in love with him. I'm going to have a talk with my mom when we get home.' Rei thought as he saw the house coming into view.
