Jealousy

Hey everyone! This is the first multiple chapter story I've created that I will ever finish, I promise you! Sorry for the short first chapter, the next one will be longer I promise again! LOL

Anyway, just to say this story is rated M for scenes of Yaoi, and also I'm making a doujinshi version of this story on deviantart, but am on hols at the moment so don't have much time to draw it. If you want to see the front cover and page 1 just ask and I'll send you the link. Hope you all enjoy the story XD

Chapter 1: Go Ahead!

A loud screeching noise echoed throughout the entire media store, followed by the loud and slightly annoying voice of Blader DJ, booming over the speakers. "Welcome Beyblade and music fans! To celebrate the release of Kinomiya Takao-kun's new single, 'Go Ahead!' we'll be playing it… ALL DAY LONG!!!"

Some poor girl was so unprepared for the sudden outburst she dropped the CDs she had been looking at and almost fell over.

The song was so loud you could hear it from a couple of meters outside the main doors of the store. With good reason of course; everyone was looking forward to Takao's new and first ever beyblading song being released for sale. It had been number one on the charts for a long time now, and was sure to make record high sales.

Everybody was excited, but no one more so than Takao himself. The bluenette was so stoked about the entire thing that he'd snuck round the front of the store and was hiding in wait along with Hiromi and Kyouju. He'd been so hyper all morning that they'd almost been discovered twice because of his outbursts.

"Shhhhh Takao! If anyone realises we're here we'll never escape with our lives!" Kyouju whispered urgently. Hiromi chuckled at the poor boy's pale complexion, he knew what the rabid fans could get like when Takao was around and didn't want to be trampled anytime soon. Suddenly a loud screeching noise sliced through them, followed by Blader DJ's voice.

Takao held back a yelp of joy. "This is it! This is it guys!" The air filled with guitars and Takao's recorded voice soon joined them. People who had been hanging around outside began to form a (somewhat) orderly queue. Hiromi smiled and turned to look at Takao's excit---

No. Oh no.

It was like everything began to move in slow motion. Hiromi watched in horror as Takao began to jump up into the air with joy, his body outstretching slowly. She saw Kyouju panic and try to grab hold of Takao's jacket, but it was too little too late. The world was silent. Like no noise could penetrate the horror that was taking place before her very eyes.

Someone's head snapped round from the queue. Their arm straightened, finger uncurled, eyes wide pointing directly at Takao. "Everybody look! It's Kinomiya Takao!" They were doomed. Soon they were surrounded by a flock of fans all yelling and asking questions and smiling at their hero. There was no escape. No exit. The bodies were packed far too tight.

Suddenly Hiromi squinted as a lone ray of light strayed into her eyes. She took the chance, grabbed Kyouju in one hand and Takao in the other, and bolted for all her life was worth. Like the queen of speed she didn't stop to look back, and headed straight into some bushes and trees nearby. They were safe.

Kyouju let out a sigh of relief and clutched at his heart. Takao however didn't share the same vibe. "What did you do that for? They were just asking questions." Hiromi ignored the bluenette's whines and pouts. It was bad enough with all the attention they got from beyblading events and tournaments; they didn't need it at media stores too.

"I was saving us from the worst of the fans." She exclaimed. "What we'll do is wait until later in the day when there are less people around, and then you can have your few moments of glory. Okay?" Takao grinned. It looked like he was going to have some attention after all. Even Hiromi couldn't completely deny him from the adoration and attention he so loved.

Kyouju made him self comfortable and opened his laptop. "It looks like we'll be waiting a while, so let's go over your beyblading stats whilst we do. I've been working on a few ideas to further customise your beyblade too, so maybe we can narrow the choices down whilst we're at it." He began typing away, and Hiromi sat next to him, watching him work. Takao knelt the other side of Kyouju, and stared intently at the screen.

The entire time no one had noticed the one person who had also turned up to support Takao during the release of the single with no intention to buy it. Hiwatari Kai was leaning against one of the walls of the store in an alleyway to the side of it. He was alone, and didn't plan on drawing any attention to himself. He planned on staying there until he had seen Takao leave at the end of the day.

He hadn't told Kinomiya that he was going, in fact the less everyone knew about it the better. The last thing he wanted was Hitoshi giving him the evil protective older brother eye actually in front of Takao himself. Kai was sick enough of getting glared at when Takao wasn't around. His and Hitoshi's problem with each other didn't need to affect Takao as well.

Kai opened an eye to look at the crowd. The queue stretched out as far as the eye could see. Closing his eye and sighing Kai adjusted his position ever so slightly. It was going to be a long wait.
