Basically just a random idea I got and I'm writing this as it goes along. This is just an idea I got to put in Kai/Ray fluff. Now let's get down to business shall we?

Disclaimer: this is the first time I'll do this for the fic- I do not own beyblade

Warning: gay pairing so don't like don't read that's all the warnings for the time being.

The first chapter is in Ray's POV but it may change with later chapters.

My Roomie

By Stunstar

Chapter 1 Roommate wanted

Wanted- a roommate. Age-no bar, sex-no bar. Should be able to pay the rent in time. Must be of clean habits. Interested candidates please contact Ray Kon, Building no. 4, Apartment 26, Block C, Sycamore Avenue.

I read my own advertisement again and again to make sure I had everything right but then again if anything were wrong I wouldn't be able to do anything since it has already been published in the newspaper's classifieds section. It wasn't too detailed and that is maybe because I wasn't bothered with the details currently. All I want is a roommate so that my expenses are cut down a bit. You see all my other friends already have roommates of their own.

Okay maybe I should introduce myself and go into a little bit more detail. My name is Ray Kon as mentioned above and I am seventeen years old and you know my address though I don't see what use you'd have for it unless you wanna answer my ad. I am a student of Art and literature. You see my greatest passions are to write, draw, cook and all such artsy stuff. And since I am a student and can work only part time I'm not exactly as wealthy as a Sheik, which is the reason why I want a roommate.

Currently I am sitting in my two-bedroomed apartment waiting for people to answer my ad. You know this place is quite a mess, you'd think that I'd clean up a bit since people are coming to see the place. Get your lazy ass off the chair and clean up Kon.

Actually I'm quite a neat person but you see the reason why my apartment is messy because it is kind of "free for all" meaning my friends come in anytime they please and they practically live here. Who are my friends you ask? Well one is Tyson Granger and the other is Max Tate. They live in this same building, same floor infact just down the hallway, that would explain the "they pratically live here" part. You see they both share an apartment and we have each others' keys in cases of emergency.

"Ray do you have any ketchup in here, I can't believe ours is all used up!" yours is all used up? How tragic now you use ketchup on just about everything how could it possibly be all gone? Note the sarcasm people.

By the way that was Tyson Granger my good friend with a strange addiction for ketchup that I for all my life can't seem to fathom. But this does not categorise as an "emergency" according to me. But lack of ketchup in the house is a calamity to Tyson, go figure.

He does not expect me to respond as he's already made a beeline for the kitchen. A "how are you this morning Ray?" would have been welcome but do I get one? Noo.

"Help yourself Tyson" I muttered not that I need to say it, he's already helped himself not only to my ketchup but half the other eatables as well. Just then the door burst open and Max came in but he didn't greet me as well but made a beeline for the bathroom.

"The flush on our toilet isn't working Ray" I heard him yell as he slammed the bathroom door shut. Now that emergency is self-explanatory I guess.

I guess I need to describe my friends more, Tyson as you can see is a food-stuffing pig and loudmouthed (large mouthed also seems like an apt adjective). He can be annoying at times but he has a really nice heart underneath all the flab and blab. He is also one of the friendliest persons I've seen and when I say friendly I mean friendly, if he bumps into a guy today and tomorrow if he finds out the guy is planning to betray the country he will march up to his house with a thick book of 'friend speeches' and convince the guy that he shouldn't be doing this because he is his "friend" and believe me the guy might just back out even if it is just to get Tyson to shut up. Exaggerated you say? I should think not, that's just Tyson, forget the fact that he probably doesn't even know the guy's last name(or in this case first) but if Tyson knows him he is his friend, period. He can also be incredibly naïve at times but that makes him a funny dude at times.

Now Max is just the opposite of Tyson, he is also friendly but he is more of the optimistic all American blonde kid complete with the blue eyes and the puppy dog look. Frankly he's just adorable. But he has his quirks too for example too much sugar can make him really hyper and a tad annoying. They make a really good pair, oh not romantically at least not yet anyway. They're great to hang out with infact I don't know what I'd have done without them, it would have been boring.

I remember when I first came here a few months after the bladebreakers broke up. Intially I'd gone back to my village but things didn't work out there, more on that later. I travelled a bit more at first before finally settling here and enrolling in the local university to fulfill my dreams(I couldn't spend all my life blading could I?) and more so to get over my feelings for my team captain. Tyson and Max came to the same place and I met them again in the cafeteria (surprised?) and since then we've been hanging out together like we used to when we were a team.

"Watcha doin Ray?" Max was looking at me with curious eyes and I realised that while I was rambling on to myself I was on my knees and bent over to retrieve a magazine from under the table giving out a very nice display of my ass. I think I have a pretty cute tushi but that's beside the point.

"I'm cleaning the place Max, I've given out an ad to get myself a new roomie so I suppose I'll have to make this place presentable enough don't I?" I responded straightening up.

"I'll help you Ray" said Max cheerfully, bless the little dude. As for Tyson that guy's more trouble than help seeing as the magazine I was holding was his and not mine. So we spent the next hour cleaning up the place and Tyson telling us what to do and what not to do until a glare from both of us effectively shut him up.

"Thanks for your help Maxie" I said as we were finally done.

"No problem Ray call us if you need anything" he replied. I nodded with a smile though more often than not it was the other way round. Max gave a cheery wave and dragged Tyson off with him back to their apartment. I closed the door not before I distinctly heard Tyson's voice say something about getting more food. I shook my head some things never change. As for me I had nothing to do now except wait for an answer to my ad I wonder how long that's going to be.

Ding dong

So soon? Did my thought processes actually act as an influence? I myself have no idea what I just said so don't ask me what I mean. Instead of pondering more over my internal monologue I guess I better answer the door before the poor person gets muscle cramps.

Holy Mother of God! Is that an actual person or am I staring at the cover of one of those ludicrous magazines that Tyson gets? Okay for those who are wondering what the hell I'm talking about there is this girl at the door. Okay for those who are wondering what there is to freak out about that, let me elaborate. This girl's about the same height as me, has green eyes and long light brown hair and has so much make up on I could probably get a nail full with a mere touch. Not to mention that she has a boob job done like Pamela Anderson know the baywatch girl? I watched just one episode and slept like a baby, by which I mean I was that bored, I mean come on all they do is run and then some silly kid splashes in the water and yells for help, it's the same thing over and over again but then again that's my opinion and why the heck am I talking about baywatch when I have the most serious crisis on my hands? Getting back to the girl, they can't possibly make skirts that short can they? And well her shirt isn't all too decent I might add.

"Mr. Kon? I've heard you're looking for a roommate" I did not like the way she stressed the last word.

"That's what my ad says" I replied calmly while inside I was chaotic. Why you ask? Because such girls scare me, the ones who come on to you like that I mean. And also the fact that I don't find girls sexually appealing might help. That has a very long history which includes one of my childhood friends Mariah and it is not one of the memories that you classify into your best memories category, if there is such a thing.

"Aren't you going to call me in?" she asked and I stepped aside though I seriously wonder why I did that, I do not think I want her as my roommate, not unless I want my virginity taken away without my consent anyway. But I guess I'll have to be polite so I gestured her to sit.

"won't you sit down too Mr.Kon?" she said smiling and patting the place on the couch beside her. I think I'm much more comfortable standing by the door like a doorman thank you very much.

"I'm fine here" I replied and she gave a giggle which seriously pissed me off, what's so funny about 'I'm fine here?'

"What's your name?" I asked, I had to ask, it was more of an ogligation since she's here to apply for being my roommate which she shall most certainly not be. But I can't be rude it's in my nature I guess.

"Mini" she said with yet another giggle. Now what's funny about asking your name? Then it would always go like 'my name is Ray Kon' giggle 'my name is Tyson' giggle 'the name's Max' giggle. It makes no sense really but I'm not here to fathom the nature of her sense of humour.

"So will you be able to pay the monthly rent?" I asked her getting straight to the point since I felt it would be a potential danger to my sexual life if I delay this any longer.

"Oh I'll be able to to much more than that" she said walking over to me and hey, get your hands offa me! I feel that if she keeps this up I'm going to have to forget my manly self control and run screaming like a girl to Max and Tyson's place and hide under their couch until this predator leaves.

"I'm sorry miss" I said pulling her hands off me, congratulate me on being able to do that without a crowbar. "I have to look at more candidates before I decide"

"you big tease" she said with a smile which I presumed was supposed to be seductive, but frankly I don't give a rat's ass.

"I mean it" I said seriously and once again congratulate me on keeping the desperate if not hysterical note out of my voice.

"well here's my number give me a call" she said pressing a card into my hands and tracing a finger along my cheek she left. She left! Hallelujah! I sank into my couch relief washing over me, I swear it was so close! I hope the others aren't like her I don't think I have the energy for it

That was only the first appicant and I'm feeling like- I don't know what I'm feeling like. Methinks this is going to be a very long day.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I made up the address so don't ask me bout it and sorry for those who like baywatch, the part about it in this chapter is just my opinion.

And Kai will make his entrance in the next chapter.

Pretty please review.
