Chapter 4

Chapter 4: Written Message Three

English class was boring and Rei was trying to pay attention in class but class was too boring, so he failed. And for time to time he would steal glances of Kai. And some of them would be returned and he would be given a little smile by his crush. He sighed, his crush… Kai had flirted with him, but what was he to the other boy? Just some cute boy who he could toy around with? Or just a friend who he liked to tease? Still a mystery to him. But if he could do something about it, then Kai would be his.

'Man! I'm sounding like a lovesick girl!' Rei screamed in his mind, pulling at his hair. Max who was sitting next to him looked a little bit taken aback and concerned. Max leaned a bit towards his friend and whispered in a quiet voice so that the teacher would not notice.

"What's wrong Rei?"

Rei turned towards the blond and gave him a smile. "Nothing's wrong, I just don't get a thing from what the teacher's saying."

Max considered this answer for a while before he shrugged. "If you say so, but if you want to talk about it, just give a scream."

"Really, Max, nothing's wrong don't worry." Rei shifted nervously on his chair.

"Hmm." Max looked over at his friend giving him a smile and ruffling his hair fondly which made Rei less nervous and laugh quietly like a little boy.

Both the boys shared a smile and went back to what they were doing. Max thinking about Tyson and Rei about Kai. Both with a dreamy expression on their faces and almost, almost drooling. The students around them noticed this and began to snicker. Kai who heard the snickering turned around in his seat on the front row to search for the source of the snickering. He saw the two friends with funny expressions planted on their faces. At least for the other students it was as funny, but boy if they knew they were having thoughts about their love/crush. Kai chuckled slightly and found himself not be able to turn back to the teacher who was rambling on in English.

Unfortunately for the two dreaming boys, Kai was not the only one who noticed the snickering and chuckling. The teacher turned abruptly around to search for who disturbed her lesson. The old woman with her grey hair in a knot and round glasses placed on the tip of her nose, searched with her unnaturally purple eyes around the class for who dared to disturb her class. Her eyes fell on the handsome blond and the raven beauty and she didn't miss the dreamy expressions on their faces. She stalked over to their desks and stood in front of them. All the students snapped out of it and sat upright. Kai did so too but he turned his head around with a pained look. As Rei felt a pair of pained eyes on him he snapped out of his thoughts and looked towards Kai. Kai beckoned to the teacher only to receive a confused look of the other teen with glittering golden eyes. But Rei and Max would soon find out what Kai meant.

"Rei Kon and Max Tate!" the teacher yelled, which made Max snap out of it too and Rei turn quick towards the teacher which made is neck give a small crack sound. Rei gently rubbed his neck with his hand, he had obviously hurt it when he had turned too quick around.

"I'll give the both of you a warning, but if this happens again then you may take my place and teach! Understood?" The teacher snapped with fury purple eyes narrowed.

"Y-Yes!" Rei and Max yelped at the same time.

"Good, now get back to work." The fuming woman went back towards the black board.

The now sweating boys took their books in search for where they were in the book. Rei was still consciously rubbing his neck, note to himself: do not act too quick if you're surprised! Only if it's a matter of life and death.

When the both of them found the right page they read it quickly through to see what this lesson was about. For the rest of the hour they followed as good as possible the lesson which they did succeed in. The class had stayed quiet not a sound could be heard except for the teacher of course. Then they finally heard the bell and everybody let out a sigh of relief which they did not know they had held in. Rei took his books and placed them neatly in his bag before going to stand next to Max.

"Hmph, stupid old hag! If she had a boyfriend, which she obviously has not, she wouldn't have yelled at us so quickly." Max fumed dropping his books in his bag out of frustration.

"Well dear Max that excuse wouldn't work for me you know?" Rei said ending with a deep sigh.

"I wouldn't be too sure about that…" Max said his eyes turning away from his friend towards Kai who was talking to his friends. The raven haired boy followed Max' gaze with his own eyes to see the gorgeous boy with fiery crimson eyes. He had baggy dark bleu pants on, his boxers showing, with a loose white shirt and a black tie. Blue-grey hair was hanging slightly in front of his eyes and made the boy run his hand through his hair while the other was in his pocket. Rei felt like running up to the boy and take him in his arms to ravish those pink kissable lips of him. He snapped out of it as he felt something pinch his cheek. Rei turned his head to who had dared to get him back to the real world. But unluckily for Rei, his neck still hurt if he turned it. He squeezed his eyes shut and rubbed his neck again.

"Rei! I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" He could hear his friend's voice calling out to him.

"Yeah I'm fine, just hurt my neck 'coz of the teacher. But never mind that, why did you pinch my cheek?" Rei asked opening his eyes again.

"Well because Kai caught you drooling over him and is now getting up from his seat and walking up to us." Max explained calmly.

"I was NOT drooling!"

"Yeah sure, and I'm Tyson's boyfriend… oh wait I am!" Max hit his head slightly.

"Anyway… I was not drooling." Rei said sweat dropping at his friend's behavior.

"Okay okay, fine already. But you were definitely thinking of some things- about him."

Rei blushed at this, his ears turning red along with his cheeks. Max grinned and saw a person coming up behind Rei. He nodded to the person and greeted him.

"Hey Kai"

Oh poor Rei, he and his neck aren't going to live that long if he's going to go on with this. Well you know how it goes- Rei turns his head, neck hurts, and he starts rubbing it.

"Hi there Kai." Rei said with one eye open.

"Hmm" he greeted them eyeing Rei "What's with your neck?"

"Just hurt it 'coz of the teacher", he said- the same explanation as he had given Max.

"What? Did she try to kiss you but you didn't stay still?" Kai said with a smirk.

"Eeew, Gods No! That's just gross!" Rei exclaimed with a look of utter disgust and horror.

"What? Kissing?"

"Kai…", Rei growled, Max just laughed but soon stopped after Rei shot him a look of 'do-not-laugh-do-not-speak-don't-do-anything-to-piss-me-off-!!!' -, obviously he was in tiger-mode, and an angry tiger at that.

"Fine fine, but is your neck alright?" Kai asked with a softer expression and a worried glint hidden in his eyes.

"Hmm, quite alright, although it does hurt like hell when I turn around", he unconsciously put his hand to his neck again; obviously the tiger was distracted from being angry. But his hand was stopped halfway through the action as he felt somebody else's hands on his shoulders. He looked up to see Kai behind him (sneaky bastard! A hot bastard at that, he is!-) and massaging his shoulders.

"Kai?" Rei asked with honest curiosity.

"What?" Kai asked slowly in return, moving his thumbs across Rei's shoulders up to his neck and slowly back down.

"Why do you this? Not that I mind of course. –Hmm, oh feels good." Rei asked but his voice faded to a faint whisper, barely audible but loud enough for Kai to hear.

Kai leaned forward, his mouth beside Rei his ear, breathing softly. He chuckled when Rei drew a sharp breath in.

"This is what friends do, nee? Help each other?" Kai moved his hands to the line where the smooth neck connected with silk raven hair. He stayed there for a while with his hands while he breathed softly against the sensitive spot under Rei's ear. Rei's heart was beating fast and his breathing came out in low breaths, trying to control it, but failing miserably. After some time massaging the sun-kissed neck Kai let his hands travel downwards the small back. Rei arched his back and squeezed his eyes shut, his cheeks coloring a cute pink shade; almost erotically. Kai had to keep himself from ravaging the little boy.

Max was watching the two boys amused, a slight grin dreading to spread over his face. Kai raised his head when he heard a suppressed chuckle and stood back straight. He saw the blond grinning and just had to laugh himself and gave the blond a quick wink. This made Max chuckle even more… and harder. Rei opened his eyes lazily to see his friend grinning like mad.

"Wha-…?"

"I assume your neck is a little better?" Kai said who was now standing beside the blond, admiring the effects he had on Rei.

"Hmm, yeah… Thanks", Rei said looking utterly embarrassed.

"No problem", Kai responded with a smirk.

"Oh before I forget," Kai said suddenly, "I was talking to my friends just now and they said we could go Saturday to the club. Is that okay for you?"

"Club? Saturday?" Max asked joining the conversation.

The two other boys turned to Max and then back to each other; they nodded.

"Hey Max want to come with us?" Rei asked, "We planned to go out to a club; which Kai's grandfather owns."

Max looked at Kai, a question seen in his eyes; Kai smiled at him and that was enough of an answer for the blond. "Count me in!"

"Great!'

"So what were you saying Kai?" Max asked.

"Well I was asking if it was okay that it'll be this Saturday."

"Fine by me. Max?"

"Hmm, yeah 'course."

"This is the address and a little map sketched under it", Kai said handing Rei a little paper.

"Nice, thank you", Rei said with a grin.

Max in the mean time looked at his watch and told them that is was time to get going for the next period. They nodded to the blond and walked out of the classroom into the hallway; that was bustling with students. They pushed through the crowd making their way forward and taking a turn here and there. They separated ways at a junction, since Kai had a different class, named: Musical Class (AN: singing, playing an instrument// can you imagine? Well… a guitar—Yeah). And Rei and Max had Art. Max was already making his way to the right, pushing people gently aside. Rei wanted to follow after him but Kai took him by his elbow from behind. Kai leaned in, right next to Rei's ear to whisper, since he didn't want anyone else to hear their exchanging words.

"You still want that demonstration so bad?" Kai asked teasingly in a charming voice, referring to their written note.

Rei turned around and looked up at Kai, blushed slightly, thinking on how to respond. He thought he would embarrass himself if he would speak, because he'd probably only stutter or something like that. So he just stayed silent. He looked in Kai's eyes and he saw a glint of amusement in them.

"Well, are you going to say something? Or has the cat got your tongue?"

The only thing Rei did was nodding numbly in response with a faint blush. And knowing exactly to which question he was responding. He thought Kai had totally forgotten about it, but obviously not. Kai let Rei go and winked at him before leaving him behind, dumbstruck. The raven haired boy quickly regained senses before following his best friend with his pony tail swinging from side to side.

"Hey Max, wait!" he shouted after the blond who was ahead of him. The blond turned around to look at his caller.

"Oh, hey buddy, got lost in the crowd, did ya?" he asked with a grin.

"Yeah, sort of", he answered with a small smile.

"Well let's get going, I still need to finish the drawing we have to turn in today."

Rei frowned: "What were you doing when you were supposed to finish it?" he asked starting to walk.

"Guess!" Max said grinning while falling in step with Rei.

"Playing games?" could be.

"Nope", Damn wrong answer, hmm.

"Eating sugar?" Rei tried again thinking hard, okay not that hard.

"For once, no", Max said with a sly grin. "Come on! It's not that hard you know!"

"Ahh! Tyson?" he answered with a catlike grin and a glint of victory in his eyes.

"Yeah, we were doing this and that…" he said trailing off with a dreamy expression on his face again, probably recalling the memories.

"Oh please, don't tell!" Rei said smirking.

"Pwease! It's not that bad…" Max said with his best pout and childish face.

"Yeah right, you were doing 'this and that'. Don't give me that. You were probably snogging with him until your lips were beet red and your tongue couldn't move anymore. Am I right?" they walked in the classroom and went to their separated desks, sitting on their chairs.

"Keep you voice down, please?!" Max said in a shush tone.

"Okay okay, … so?" Rei took his seat facing Max with one arm leaning on his desk and the other on the leaning of his chair.

"It was something like that… like what you described…" Max said facing him too.

The classroom was nothing out of ordinary, there were just a lot of paintings on the walls. Paintings that students had made or paintings of famous painters (fake ones). The desks and chairs were slightly older than the rest of the school. Probably because in the past there were a lot of people interested in art. Such as: painting, drawing and also music and dance. But there were other rooms for that (music-dance). And also back then there were more people interested in art than now.

Rei found himself often in the gardens of the school drawing and he was actually pretty good at it. The part that he's good at drawing and appreciates art, that's one of the reasons he takes art-classes. His parents were slightly against it in the beginning. But they stopped arguing with him as soon as they saw how much he enjoys drawing. He truly enjoys it. Because he can do what he wants, draw what he wants. He can let his emotions flow into his pencil making particular movements over the paper. Like waves of the sea leaving a line of sand and shells on the beach. Like a tear making it's way down a cheek letting the sorrow go and trying to forget. Like lips moving against the lips of another letting the tension, emotions and passion drowning in their kiss, letting the actions speak the words they can't. Letting the pencil speak for him. It was actually his passion. He had another passion, he actually has a few more passions. For one, there was writing. The game he would always play with the words, making the words roll easily of one's tongue, or sometimes making it so hard that you had to think if the sentence was right, figure out what it means- something to think about. He likes the way people would be amazed by him, from what the persons had read. Writing was the same as drawing, but still different. A drawing/painting could be mysterious, hard to figure out. One person could think something totally different than another person. Only the one who drew it knows the meaning, the story of the painting. A written story is slightly the same only with words and it's most of the time easier to understand, because it is written black on white. But still you could play with the words and create a mysterious atmosphere. The other passions? Hmm… Love. Also the passions he strives for, adores from seeing it from other persons- a kiss, a touch, a word and even a whisper from the one you love- the passion to hear, to feel, to see the one you love…

As the teacher walked up to the front of the class everyone looked to the front and sat upright on their chairs. The drawings that had to be given to the teacher this lesson were passed to the front, to the teacher. Max just had finished it in time. Lucky guy.

Everyone was silent as the teacher spoke and listened to what the melodious voice, he always uses, had to say. He always spoke about art as if it were his lover, his beloved one. He must be quite the romantic one at home…

They did what was asked of them and it was peaceful, not quiet, because of the quiet mummers that could be heard in the room. You could also hear the scraping of pens on papers as they used pens with Chinese ink, to finish the sketches they made a week ago.

They had art three times a week. Two hours on Monday after science (AN: remember Rei had to say goodbye to Kai after science? Kai had 'Musical Class' then), on Tuesday; that's today, and on Thursday the second and fourth period.

The hour went by quickly and Rei and Max found themselves standing in front of the door that was for the following lesson. Max opened the door to see a few students already in, but no teacher in sight. He walked in with Rei not far behind.

"Hey Max", Kai said as he saw him walking towards him. Rei stepped from behind Max to stand next to him.

"Ahh the shorty is here too, I see…" the slate haired teen added in a teasing voice.

"Hey, stop calling me that!", he looked up at Kai, "I'm not that short, now am I?" Rei asked irritated with a big pout.

"Whoa somebody's got a bad temper", Kai stated frowning.

"Sorry…" Rei said looking down. He could hear a chuckle and looked back up. Kai held a fist in front of his mouth as if he was about to cough. Now Rei, he himself smiled too.

"That's quite alright, just teasing you", Kai said after returning the small smile. The blond haired teen stood beside Rei with a warm smile planted on his face, looking at the interaction of his best friend and new friend. Seeing his friend happy, made him happy too, quite sappy right? But… it's the truth.

Rei ran his hand unconsciously again from his hair to his neck rubbing it. Kai noticed this and quirked his eyebrow.

"Does you neck still hurt?" he asked a little bit concerned.

"Uhh? No, not really, just thinking… really", he answered with a slight shrug of his shoulders and lips turned upwards.

"Yeah yeah, you just want Kai to massage you again. I can see through you little plan!" the now hyper blond jumped in.

"You could have just asked that you know", the crimson-eyed boy smirked.

"No, no! That's not it! I wasn't planning anything!" Rei answered immediately.

"Was it that bad then?" Kai asked almost pouting. Almost!

"No! It was wonderful, you really know your way with your hands", he said quickly, he didn't want to hurt Kai's feelings, but he wasn't lying one bit when he said that. After realizing he just said that he stood still, pale. Some of their classmates had turned after the little outburst and looked at the three teens with big interest. Kai was grinning amusedly and Max was trying to hide his laughs behind his hands (we can still hear you Max ^^).

"Did I just say that? Scratch that, did I just shout that?" he asked in horror. (XD anyone saw a ghost? The phantom house lost their one… -cough, sorry,,, continue-)

"Yes, sort of…" The taller boy waved a hand in front of Rei's face. "You're alive? Or do I need to call heaven to ask my angel back?" Kai whispered to him, his voice warm, but Max still heard; and Kai knew that. Rei's cheeks had now an interesting shade of pink spread across them; then he smiled softly.

"Your angel?" Rei asked with a smirk that could match Kai's.

Now it was Kai who was slightly blushing.

"Uhh,-" but gladly for him he was interrupted as the teacher walked in and said to them to stand at the back of the room. Rei and Max stood side by side grinning madly; Kai stood beside Max awkwardly.

"We're going to be changing places. This time all of you can decide yourself of where to sit, since I assigned the places last time. Just don't make too much noise or I might just change my mind", the old man spoke slowly. It was now the hour of fauna and flora- biology.

"Hey Rei, I'm going to sit next to Rex as an apology for the thing in PE. 'S that OK?" Max asked after getting over laughing but still with a grin right into place.

"Yeah sure", Rei said, little disappointed. And why Max thought of that as an apology, you might think? Well Max is, maybe surprisingly, very good at biology. A Nature-Lover. Well so is he but not as much as Max is.

Max walked over to Rex who reacted pleasantly to his offer. Rei watched from the back of the class and sighed. He saw the people grouping together to sit side by side. A few people asked him but he rejected them. He saw that the Barbie-bitches were trying to pair up with Kai, but Kai rejected them all, much to his relief. He had his target in sight and then he attacked… well not literally really.

"Hey Kai", he came standing beside the taller boy. Very subtle.

"Hey Rei", the other boy replied looking straight forward; refusing to look at Rei.

"So… do you have anyone to pair up with?" a smile.

"No… are you hinting?" a small smirk.

"Kind of. So-", he was cut off.

"Or are you trying to seduce me?" Crimson eyes locked with golden ones. Honest curious eyes searched for an answer in the golden orbs. His eyes were betraying him but there was still a smirk planted on his lips. It was meant as a joke but his eyes were prying for an honest answer.

'Wants Kai me for real, or is he just playing with me?' Rei asked himself,… in his thoughts.

"No, actually not", he replied. "Not this time anyway…" he muttered quietly. But Kai with his good hearing picked up the last sentence and the hurt was washed away.

"Let's take a seat", he said as if nothing had happened, walking to a large desk (AN: For two persons, just so you know).

"Hmm, okay", Rei said following short behind, taking a seat next to Kai.

The teacher started his lesson, everyone bored the second he started speaking in a monotone voice, all except for Max that is. Rei took a white sheet and began writing a message to his penpal.

Hey Kai,

What's up? I'm bored already. That was quick right? Yeah I know. If I bother you just tell me okay… Is it only me or does it seem like there is a tension between us at the moment? I don't like it at all. Write back, please.

Greetz Rei

-xXx-

He slid the paper to the other side of the desk. Kai looked at it and began reading, he laughed at the beginning of the little note but it soon grew into a frown. He grabbed the pen from Rei and gave him a shy smile.

Hey Rei,

About that tension, it's my fault. Yeah I know! I shouldn't have started about the seducing thing. Sorry, well if it would make you happy, I'll say: forget about it… And about the bothering stuff… you don't bother me at all! I told you already, we may not know each other well… but trust me.

I'm nice! … right?

xXx Kai

He slid the paper back to Rei who began to read it eagerly. After he had read it he began to reply but not before pinching Kai and getting back his pen; smiles shared and all.

Hiya Flirt,

Forgetting about it… I don't know. It just wasn't my intention to seduce you with asking to sit next to me. But then again you were just teasing me, man I need to stop to take everything serious. Well I don't take everything serious, now do I? –grin- And about the bothering and trusting stuff… hmm… okay I'll trust you, but don't betray my trust. Or you'll have a sugar high blond after you xD no but seriously!!

Xxx Rei

He wanted to slid the paper back but he found Kai near his shoulder. Looking over his shoulder at the note.

"Hehe, just looking. And I won't betray your trust", he whispered. He took the pen from Rei again and also the sheet. While Kai was writing, Rei was thinking about Kai again. About Kai and him to be precise. He was taking back to reality as he felt a poke in his left side. He looked up to see Kai with a smug expression on his face.

Hey Dreamboy, (a Flirt? Me? O.o)

I was just looking, I swear! Not smelling you or something! If I did that I would know now that you smell delicious.

You- taking everything serious? … No you don't! but what DO you take serious, if I may kindly ask? I already said it but I'll write it: I won't betray your trust. Not because I don't want to have Max after me, which I don't want, but because you've become a friend in a really short time, and I don't betray my friends.

xxX Kai

The paper was slid back and so on. In the mean while Max was stealing glances from the two boys from the front row. Max was taking notes for him and Rex, since the other boy was fine asleep on their desk. Kai and Rei were lucky the teacher wasn't one of the best observers, not in class that is. The teacher was a good observer, just not in class for two lovebirds who were writing intimidate notes to each other… or something like that.

Hey Hiwatari (Yes Flirt!)

I take you serious, to be frank. And I'll believe you when you say you won't betray my trust. And you're my friend too by the way, just a confirmation. And may I ask you something? Okay? Yeah, well I wanted to ask you about the thing before PE this morning, in the changing-room. Were you just teasing me?

XxX Rei

Rei slid the paper over the desk to his neighbor. He looked away so that the other boy wouldn't see his growing blush. He felt crimson eyes on his head, looking right through him, he heard a chuckle. He turned slightly his head over his shoulder to see Kai reading the note. He was screaming to himself of how stupid he was to ask that. He turned his head back.

'This can ruin our friendship! Shit! What have I done?!' Rei screamed to himself in his head.

'Why did I have to ask that? Why couldn't I just leave it be? Why couldn't I just wait until he maybe said something about it? Why couldn't I… why couldn't--' he was almost crying, yes he knew that the friendship was not a long one. But if you're a friend of the person you like, it's precious, yet fragile. And then there was the case that they knew each other for only… a day? A day and a half? Okay they also knew each other from being in the same class and so on… but this was different.

'Okay, that's it! I'll make Kai mine, but first I'll have to become a really good friend of him!' he grinned slightly with newfound spirit.

The next time he turned around he saw Kai looking at him again. Crimson red eyes burning into his golden ones. The fiery passion Kai's stare held was sent over to his golden orbs; a shiver ran over his spine. A shiver of pure pleasure. Kai was mouthing something.

"Hi-mi-tsu" (1)

He gave Rei a wink and a beautiful smile before he passed the note back to Rei. The raven teen could strangle him!!!

'Bastard!!!' screamed his mind 'Forget making him mine! How about coming up with a plan to kill that gorgeous boy right across of me. Put a scratch over his right eye… but not damaging those crimson orbs. Maybe I'll bite in his lip, bite down hard until I can taste his blood. Run my tongue over the wound and make him shiver, moan. Then he'll gasp when I bite down a second time, but not as hard as the first, and I'll slide my tongue inside his hot cavern and… Oh my god!! Rei! Stick to the point!' he was almost pulling out his hair at this moment.

He quickly snatched the note away from Kai his hand and read it. He could almost feel the funny look Kai was giving him. Note to himself: don't try to pull out your hair when somebody is around, it might look… weird? Lunaticisch? Is that even a word? …NO!.

Hi Rei,

You take me serious? The feeling is mutual, really. Even if I don't really act like it. And I wasn't teasing you… man this is embarrassing to talk-… write about! Well I'm quite interested in you, but I wasn't sure if you were into guys, so that's why I did that thing to you in the locker room. To see how you reacted. Sorry if I confused you too much. And sorry if I wasn't direct before or that I am too forward now. And I understand if you don't want to be friends anymore. And you'll probably think that, I just know you for a day and a half as a friend. And that I'm already flirting with you. But the thing is, that I have had for some time this 'thing' for you. Sorry if the thought scares you or something. Man I should stop writing, I just keep on rambling and making probably things worse.

XxX Kai (PS: I'm not a flirt)

To say the least, Rei was surprised. Very surprised and shocked! Okay he could understand if Kai was just playing with him or something. But that Kai may have crush on him. He dreamt of it of course, but the real thing! He was in heaven! … Maybe Kai really does need to call heaven to ask him back! Probably.

'But wait, this 'thing' is it a crush on me? Or just feelings but he isn't sure of them? Man this is confusing! Maybe I'm just making things worse! Probably…' Rei's thought were swarming through is head, he would definitely have a headache later.

He looked over at Kai to see him penning the notes over from the blackboard.

'Shit! Class, totally forgot about it!' he quickly took his own notes and began to write the other, the new notes over on his sheet. After some time he had taken them all over and he went back to his exchange message with Kai. He still needed to write a response. He took this pen and thought for a moment, biting on the pen a bit. After some time of thinking he began to write.

Hey Kai,

Wow I honestly don't know what to say (uhh write), and that's not really a bad thing… I think. To make things clear, yes I am gay, but you've probably figured that one out already. And to be honest I have a crush on you. Too forward? But I'm so confused! And yes I'm going to say it: we only know each other really for a day and a half and it makes me kind of nervous… okay REALLY nervous. What if you don't like me after all, such things go through my mind. And OF COURSE do I still want to be your friend!

xXX Rei

Rei slid the paper shyly back to Kai who in return took the paper shyly, both blushing. (AN: Kai blushing .) Rei took some new notes over from the blackboard, in the mean time Kai wrote a short note, really short.

Maybe want to talk about this later? xXX Kai

Okay, - now he was scared shitless! He would definitely only blush and stutter! Since he was the blushingqueen! … uhh BlushingKING. He was going to ruin it! That are his thought at moment, so now. Ohh, how he longed for Kai and his gentle touch. Those kissable lips against his neck or on his own lips…

'Man, I'm sounding like a perv!' he pondered a few seconds before he made a decision. 'So what if I sound like a pervert! I'll do anything to make him mine! I just hope everything goes alright…'

He looked at Kai who was obviously trying to look anywhere but Rei, and at the moment the slate-haired teen was looking at the teacher. He touched Kai's arm slightly to get his attention; the other boy looked at him with uncertain eyes, almost… scared. Like a lost puppy. Rei almost embraced the boy but instead gave the other boy an assuring smile.

"I'd love to", he whispered, he looked around if nobody was looking at them. He leaned slightly in and gave a soft, quick kiss on Kai's cheek. He giggled lightly at the other's expression- shocked to say the least. After overcoming his shock, Kai laughed silently along with Rei.

The only one who saw the exchange had a warm smile. Max' blue eyes were shining and under the table he had his fingers crossed.

(1) Himitsu: Secret

I hope that was alright, Kai was sooooo out of character… But that doesn't matter 'coz it hasn't to do anything with the original Beyblade.
