I'm really sorry for not uploading it till now! I droped my computer from my bed (that just happens to be by the ceiling) and broke! I just got it back reasently and when I did get it back I had way to much with school! Ah! I'm sorry! Please don't kill me!

Anyway. I don't own the characters, but I do own the plot.

Thank you very much for reading this! And thank you everyone that reviews! It's really appreciated!

Kai was sitting in an armchair in the living room of the Granger household after a "quite" loud dinner which had made him miss the almost uncomfortably silent dinners with The Demolition Boys. He was leaning on one of his arms and looked out at the room with his past team mates and current opponents. He sighed at the thought that he once again was living with them and Tyson's exaggerated grandfather. His life would be all other than quiet from now on and it wasn't solely because of Tyson. It was partly because of his current team. The one he was fighting with. The Demolition Boys.

Deep in his thoughts, he hadn't noticed that Tyson had walked up to him and was now standing beside his armchair – staring at him. As he realized the first reaction of his was shock from seeing the blue–haired blader so close to his face, but then just glared back at him with his usual cold eyes.

"So~" Tyson said with an – for Kai – annoyingly curious look in his face.

"What?" Kai asked with his usual harsh tone and with an annoyed look on his own face.

"How did this happen?" he asked with blue eyes shining of curiosity. As he uttered those words the heads of the other Bladers turned to look at him as well. Kai meet Ray's golden eyes, as the coal-black haired male stood up. Ray stopped beside the armchair and the others observing them with interest.

"Well?" Hilary asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It started two years ago" Kai slowly begun and as he did Ray lightly sat down at the armrest on his left side. "It was when Ozuma's gang and those scientists were trying to steal our Bit Beasts. I didn't know it from the beginning – or rather – I pretended not to notice, but I started to gain feelings for – well, you know who." That sentence made Ray laugh slightly for himself, but Kai ignored it and continued with their story. "As the days passed and we trained together those feelings grew stronger to the point where I could no longer hide it from myself. The thought of him having the same feelings as me never accrued to me, and so I decided not to let it show. Despite that, one night when everyone was asleep I leaned down over Ray who was sleeping next to me in the dojo and kissed him."

"Imagine his surprise when I – as he was about to pull away – put my arms across his neck" Ray added with a playful smile that reviled one of his sharp teeth. With that said both of them thought back at that night. The cool midnight air around them, the quiet atmosphere that filled the room, the soft touch of the others' warm lips, the excitement of not knowing where things would lead, the worry of whether or not it would last. Those were things they wouldn't ever forget.

"Two years, hm" Hilary uttered and almost looked up at the ceiling. "That's quite a long time."

"Really is" Kenny commented as he pushed up his glasses on the back of his nose and the others nodded in consent. Ray laughed nervously and looked at Kai – on whose shoulder he had his hand. The dark-silver haired males' eyebrows where curved in annoyance from the raven-haired male's friends' curiosity and Ray decided that the best thing to do was to change the atmosphere in the room. However. Before he was able to make a move, Hilary popped up beside him.

"So how does it feel to have a long distance relationship?" she asked as she moved towards him with curious eyes and he frightened moved backwards.

It was true. It was indeed a long distance between them and that's why they, when there was a championship –like the one at that moment – took the chance to see each other more frequently. Even though. Ray had certainly not thought that it would be quite this frequent.

"Wait!" Tyson exclaimed and everyone turned to look at him. "You haven't told us how or when it started for you, Ray."

A slight smile spread across Kai's lips as he watched his partner blush lightly beside him. Kai was actually rather curios of that as well, as it had never happened that he had asked. To think that Tyson would actually say something useful surprised Kai slightly, but didn't let it bother him. Miracles did happen at times.

Ray paused for a moment, thinking back to the days when his love had begun. He laughed quietly to himself before turning towards the others.

"Do you remember the time when my Bit Beast had been taken by Ozuma's gang?" he asked with a smile on his lips and he saw the others nod. "Well. I rushed to help Kai that day, even though I had a disadvantage from not having my Bit Beast. I would have done the same thing even if I had had Driger at that point." He laughed at the confused looks of his friends, and at the most confused look of all that belonged to Kai. "Seeing him being treated that way. I simply couldn't stand it. There was something different with the way I felt at that point that I did not realize. A feeling that grew stronger when we battled together that day. And when I saw how he cared for me."

A silence filled the room before Ray once again laughed. This time with comfort in his smile.

"It's rather hard to explain it" he continued, smiling. "Since feelings usually do not make any sense. But I think I simply hadn't realized it before that and from the realization those feelings grew."

The door slid up easily on its strip and Ray quietly stepped out on the terrace surround the old, beautiful dojo. It closed just as easily behind his back as he went the few steps to sit down on the edge of it beside a male. Moonlight painted the small pond, the gravel, the trees and the grass in a dusky blue and silver.
The two males glanced at each other and a smile crept onto Ray lips as he looked into the dark red eyes of Kai. Kai on the other hand did not smile, but once again looked down on the ground – just as he had done when the raven–haired male first sat down.

"Don't worry" Ray said with that beautiful and calm smile on his lips. "We'll make it through this."

Kai looked up at the male. Into his beautiful, golden orbs. At the small, pointy tooth that peeked out from underneath his upper lip. The pitch black hair surrounding his bright face. The strait nose. The line of his jaw. The curve of his lips.

Kai couldn't help but laugh as he saw the honest look on his partners face and slowly closed in on him wearing one of his rare, honest smiles. "I never doubted it" he replied and carefully placed his arm around Rays shoulders. As the full moon shined placed its light on them, they chaired the sweetness of a midnight kiss.
