"Morning Hiro" Rey stifles a yaw and he waves at Hiro barley awake. He got plenty of sleep, and he was up at his normal time, he might have had some bad dreams, but nothing to make him this tired. He just was not a morning person, never had been and never will be. Just like a cat, he hates mornings. He then makes his way across the kitchen towards the coffee machine.

He was thankful when he arrived in civilization and he found that he didn't have to make his cup of coffee every morning. He could just press the button and wait. It had taken him many spoilt cups to get the hang of it but once he had the hang of it he couldn't live without one each and every morning.

"Morning, bad nights sleep? You look terrible." Hiro smiled at Rey from his seat on the top of the counter top next to the coffee machine. He knew Rey wasn't a morning person and they had the same conversation almost every morning. But as of late Rey was trying to change it up, say something different.

"Yeah, was having a nightmare for most of the night if I'm being perfectly honest." He smiled at Hiro who wasn't quite sure how to react. He didn't want to joke in case Rey was being serious and he didn't want to be serious if it was a joke so he settled on a neutral answer. "Is that so?" Rey looked at him and nodded sleepily.

Just then, there was a small ding and Rey looked at the coffee machine thankful that it was finished so quickly. He carefully took the cup out, blew away some of the steam and took a sip. Just how he liked his morning coffee. He then, still sleepy, made his way over to the table and to his regular seat. Yes, in that house they all had their designated seats at the dinner table to stop a fight breaking out at every meal.

He was almost at his seat when he heard Hiro chuckling to himself and shook his head. He was sure that bloke was going mad from being around so many teens all the time. But he continued to his seat despite Hiro's made chuckling.

When Rey sat down though he didn't feel the cold, hard wood that normally greeted him. Instead, it was something warm, a body perhaps. But who would be stupid enough to sit in his seat? Everybody knew it was his seat, so why try and sit in it?

After a moment of thinking, he realized two things. He was still sat on the warm body, and only one other person in the house gets up as early as he and Hiro do. And he is going to be in an extremely bad mood when Rey gets up. Rey glanced at Hiro who was sat on the counter with his mouth open and his eyes almost popping out of his head.

Quickly Rey jumped up and spun around to look at Kai. But fete had decided that today was the day Rey was going to have something terrible happen to him. And upon spinning around, coffee mug still in hand, his coffee had managed to slush around so much that it flew out of his mug. And then it landed on none other than his team captain, and sex god. But not only was it on him, but it was spilt all down his bare chest!

Hiro had fallen off of the counter top and was trying not to laugh whilst he found his way back to his feet. Rey was holding his coffee mug for dear life and mentally slapping himself and using every curse word he knew in both Chinese and English. And finally there was Kai, still sat down on his chair, coffee now all over his bare, muscled, chest. But you could see it in his face how much it was hurting him by how white his knuckles were whilst he was gripping onto the table.

Once Hiro was up on his feet, he grabbed a tea towel as fast as he could and chucked it over to Kai who grabbed it in mid air and quickly began patting the boiling hot liquid off of his, still, bare chest. He kept patting until it was all gone and then he looked in front of him and was surprised to see Rey still stood there.

At that moment, Rey noticed where he was really stood. In-between Kai's legs. He had had a few to many dreams about being there, but he never thought it would be in the circumstances that it was. He quickly stepped back, but fete decided he hadn't had enough yet. He bumped into the table, causing what was left of his morning coffee to spill, once again, over Kai. But this time it was over his trousers and Rey couldn't stop himself from going as red as a tomato.

Hiro couldn't help himself anymore and burst out laughing and had to grip onto the kitchen counter to stop himself from collapsing onto the floor. He knew all about Rey's thing for Kai and he just knew this wasn't going to have a happy ending.

"FUCK!" Kai stood up as quick as he could causing the chair he was sat on not moments before to fall backwards and smash onto the floor. He then tried to use the already damp tea towel to dry his trousers but it was of no use. Only one thing came to mind, and it had to be done. He quickly whipped off his trousers and chucked them on the floor.

Rey then placed his, now empty cup, on the table and had to cover his mouth so he wouldn't let out a purr at the sight of his sex god almost naked. He was so well muscled and his skin was pale making him stand out in the dim light of the kitchen. Not to mention he was just perfect and he had a slight red taint to his cheeks, maybe he could be embarrassed.

Hiro wasn't really sure where to look, he was only 19 and he could easily have any of the guys, yes, Hiro was openly gay, that he met. But seeing Kai like that was getting hard to resist, but he managed to for the sake of his friend Rey. Rey now had gotten over how amazing Kai looked and both he and Kai were looking at the door when they hear the sound of faint footsteps coming down the hall.

Max was the first into sight; he was holding his baseball bat and looking around for some kind of attacker. Tyson was barley awake, leaning on Max for support and was also looking for some kind of attacker. Hillary was in her dressing gown and curlers and she didn't look like she was in a good mood. And Chief was looking very tired and didn't really seem to know what was going on.

Then all at once they realized what was going on and they saw Kai they all looked from him to Hiro to Rey rather confused. They couldn't really understand why Kai was almost naked but it was making them all rather uncomfortable so they settled on looking at Hiro and Rey for some kind of explanation.

"You guys go and get ready, make sure you're packed and everything and I will tell you when you're done. Now get a move on!" He walked over to them , taking the large baseball bat from Max whilst he lead the rest of them off down the hall leaving a stunned Rey and a very angry Kai.

"Kai, I am so sorry about the coffee. I feel like a real twat." Rey knew Kai wouldn't be happy with his apology but he had to say something just to break the awkward silence if anything.

Kai looked at Rey, saw the embarrassed look on his face and almost smiled. Almost. "Don't worry about it. I shouldn't have been sat in your seat; I mean it is your seat right?" Kai grabbed his trousers and made his way to the exit. "See you in a bit Rey" With one last look, he walked off to his room to find an actual outfit.

Rey was left in the kitchen stunned. Kai had just said it was his fault, he had apologised. Maybe the coffee fumes and burns had driven him into a moment of insanity. You never know, anything can happen. Rey shook his head and went to go and make himself another coffee.

Meanwhile over in the BBA building things were much loader…

"LEE WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM?!" Julia was screaming at the top of her voice her eyes on Lee making sure he was turned around since she was in just a towel.

"Sorry, I was looking for your brother. I needed to give him back his hairbrush!" Lee couldn't believe it; he had just seen Julia in a towel. Don't doubt him; it was something most beybladers wanted to see. But he felt like such an ass for not knocking. But he decided to keep her talking so he held up the hairbrush as proof of his story.

Julia sighed; grateful he didn't come in just to see her in a towel. She wasn't stupid, she knew all of the guys wanted to see her like that. "Just leave it on the floor, and sorry for shouting. But you know." Julia did like Lee, he was a nice guy and she had no reason not to like him. Apart from the fact that they had never really talked to one another before.

"Don't worry about it. I'll see you at the mansion later!" He quickly dropped the brush on the floor and ran to the door. In his attempt at a quick escape, he failed to notice the door was already open and instead he just fell out with a loud thud. When he was on the floor, he heard Julia gasp and he quickly pulled the door shut.

Michael smiled when he saw Lee on the floor and helped him up. "So did you see her or not?" Lee and Michael had developed a dare after seeing all of the other teams in the building. First one to get Julia or one of the other girls to kiss them gets a new iPod from the other. Silly to you, but it was something that was going to keep them entertained.

Lee smiled and nodded at Michael who nodded at how impressed he was with his new best friends. "Nice, you'll have her in not time. And by the way, Mariah is moaning about something or another. So have fun with that." Michael made to leave Lee but he grabbed his shirt and stopped him with a grin. "I'm not going near her if she's in a mood; I'll let somebody else deal with her. Come on; let's hang in your room." Lee continued his grip on Michael's shirt and he pulled him to his own room.

"Hey Rick, want your CD back or not?" Johnny was stood in the middle of the hallway with Crusher and Ian who were both laughing at a fuming Rick. The three had already formed some sort of prankster alliance and had put their team skills to the test before they were even in the mansion.

"OI I SAID GIVE IT BACK ALREADY!" Rick was giving them a warning look that didn't make even one of them blink. They were all season pranksters and those kinds of stares and threats didn't really do anything to them. If anything, it encourages them to keep going.

Ian thought it was his turn to taunt the much larger blader. "Catch us if you can big man!" He took the CD and case out of Johnny's hand and the trio began sprinting down the hall at top speed with a very angry rick running behind them shouting and cursing them with every word ever used by a human.

Halfway down another hall Ian and Johnny saw somebody coming and signalled to Crusher to keep to the sides of the hall to avoid the person getting hurt. They were quick to pass them but poor Rick didn't have the same warning and tripped over them landing on his back with them on top of him. He was about to curse when he saw who was actually on top of him.

"Sorry Rick, are you okay? I mean I didn't make you hurt yourself or anything did i?" Monica was much smaller than Rick but she was such a kind and gentle soul she always worried about hurting other people or upsetting them. Rick suddenly lost all traces of his anger and was more concerned as to weather or not he had hurt little Monica whilst chasing her brother and his friends.

"Yeah, and I'm sorry about this. Your brother and his friends stole my CD again." He looked back up the hallway and saw Crusher heading his way and he knew if he wanted to keep his head then he should really not be caught with his little sister on top of him in the middle of a hallway. So he gently lifted her up, placed her on her feet next to him, and then stood up himself.

Crusher reached the pair and straight away crouched down to talk to Monica, ignoring Rick as he went. "Monica, are you okay?" He chose then to glare up at Rick letting him know if anything had happened then it was he who was going to pay. "I'm fine, but why did you take Rick's CD? You should give it back Crusher!" She may have been small but she knew how to make people do her biding, including her big brother.

"I would Monica, but Johnny has it now. I think Robert found him though. Or maybe Ian has it, in that case then Tala has it." He smiled at his sister and she just shook her head and looked up at Rick. "Okay, let's go and pack. And next time you do something like this, I won't be happy. Bye Rick." She smiled up at Rick and waved before pulling her brother back down the hall.

Rick gave a small wave himself and even smiled at how she commanded everything and everyone. He was about to walk down the hall when he saw four people he was going to find himself.

"Here Rick, sorry about these two." Robert threw the CD back and Rick caught it easily eying him suspiciously. Johnny was behind him looking annoyed and bored. Then there was Tala who was looking at Ian, who was stood with Johnny looking annoyed and generally tired out from all of the running.

"Yeah, it won't happen again!" Tala gave both Ian and Johnny a stern look that they both knew shouldn't be contradicted. Robert however, just shook his head knowing that the pair would no doubt start pulling more pranks once they reached the house and they wouldn't be nearly as simple as their earlier one.

"Thanks, and next time they try something like that I'll run full speed and actually catch one of them!" Rick gave an evil glare to Ian who actually had to turn around so that he could get away from the stare. "See you all later." With a wave of his hand, that was more of a dismissal than a goodbye and went back to his own room to prepare for the long month ahead.
