"Talk"
´Thoughts´
A/N: Hey! Thankyou so much for you great reviews, I have never seen anything like it. I would never have thought that this little story would be so interesting to you all, it makes me want to write more and more. I been going through all you answers and I have some inspiration now so…
On with the story! ^^
Kai stood there frozen in his spot as he looked down on the little teen standing in the middle of the floor, who had just announced to the whole school that he loved him.
´Baka! I wanted you to say it to me, for you confidence. Not in front of the whole world!´
It was so quiet that you could hear a needle fall. Wyatts nervous laugh broke it after a while.
"..like I said. I love you Kai."
Ray was as shocked as his boyfriend, but recovered as he looked over to him. He was sure Kai wouldn´t care about that comment at first, but it was something in his partners eyes that was like a hit in the face. Kai looked like..he couldn´t take his eyes from Wyatt.
"Kai..?" he asked but got no answer.
"You go, dude!" broke the heavy situation by a student that stood up for his seat. "Thats right Wyatt, tell him! Fallow your heart!"
Soon was more and more comment being yelled, all of them was cheering on Wyatt about his courage. They all started to applause and Wyatt felt his cheeks go more and more red.
Ray felt a heavy feeling in his stomach as the crowd was starting to yell Wyatts and Kais names together and he was starting to leave the hall. Kai didn´t noticed, he was to occupied to watch Wyatt who looked back at him.
The brown haired teen looked into his idols eye. He didn´t seem to moved about the stunt. And he didn´t understand why, this was the biggest confession he could give!
"Well, thats all from me..Cya." he said and carefully laid down the microphone on the floor making the speaker do a thud noise. He was walking of the floor and out to the changing rooms were Zen and Oskar waited.
"That was wicked man! You got the crowd with you. That had to made an impression on him!" Zen cried, very proud of himself for getting the idea.
"I don´t know..it was something with him.." Wyatt said, still very warm of his cheeks.
"If he don´t do anything, it can still change for the better. Didn´t you see Ray leave the hall?" Oskar agreed.
"We just have to wait and see what happens."s
--------------------
Ray closed the door and leaned on it, his breath caught in his throat. It was strange, he felt pain in his chest but Kai hadn´t even done anything. It was the other guy.
Ray had never thought of himself as the jealous type, he didn´t need to. Kai was not the playing kind of boyfriend and he was very confident in himself that Kai liked him. But now it seemed like that boy didn´t have any attention in letting Kai go as he first thought. He had just told him that he loved him in front of all those people. Did he really think he could archive something with that? Kai would never fall for shallow pressure like that...but it still hurt. He always felt bad when he disliked people, but now he felt annoyed by the teen and even more annoyed at himself for suggesting that Kai would spend more time with him. But this guy was important to Kai so..
"It can´t be helped." He said to himself and tried to be with piece at the thought. It was just for a little while and he did trust Kai.
While still feeling slight down he walked back to Kai and his room to wait for his boyfriend there.
It took a hour or so before the day reached its end and he was leaning his elbows on the window seal. The cold wind was touching his face and his sad eyes scanned the schoolyard as the door opened. As in any school it was very few things that could entertain you between classes and looking out the window was one of them. At least it was a very nice view.
"I got worried about you.." He said without turning around.
"...I had to walk for a bit. Im sorry." Was the answer before the presence took a seat next to him.
"I guess it was a quite shock for you.." Kai met the golden eyes, and he saw immediately that they were sad. He shook his head and put his arms around his partner who got suprised as he was pulled close.
"What?"
"Ray, your eyes always gives you away. I see that this is tearing you apart even if you smile about it. Im sorry. It was a shock for me, but it was surely a shock for you too."
Ray backed away from the embrace so he could face him. "It´s nothing I can´t handle Kai. I still mean what I said before. Okay its annoys me, but what can I expect when Im dating you."
The comment made Kai smirk with confident. "Yeah, Im kind of special."
"Sure, whatever superstar. Now... can we just talk about this in the morning. I would like to go to sleep now.." The tiger yelled out as Kai threw himself back on the Rays bed, while dragging him with him. He turned them so he was soon straddling his partner.
"I think I can come up with something else than sleep..." He said as he kissed Rays neck.
---------------------
The morning came quicker than they wanned to and Ray groaned as his hide his face in Kais neck. His boyfriend had yanked of his wrap during their nighty activities so his black strands was all over the bed they laid in.
"Koi, time to get up.." Kai murmured while the other groaned even more in protest. "Don´t want to..."
"I´ll go and take a shower. Try and stay awake." He said and left the bed, much to Rays disappointment..."No..the warmth.." he murmured.
Kai snicked to himself and went into the bathroom.
Ray was tired, but that wasn´t the only reason that he didn´t want the day to start. He had a worrying feeling in his body that didn´t go away. Today Kai was going to spend the day with Wyatt, and the faster the day passed by, the faster it will be over.
A knock on the door after some time changed his mind though. Maybe the hell just begun.
Reluctand he got up from the warm bed only to see he was only was wearing red boxers. "Well at least Im wearing something" he said more to himself when the banging noise was heard again.
"Ray open the door!" Kai yelled from the bathroom as the shower was turned off.
"Hold on a minute!" Ray yelled to the person outside as he was looking for some cloths. When the knock was heard a third time he cursed and took a black t-shirt from Kais closet and pulled on. He was dragging his hair out of it at the same time he opened the door.
"What?"
Wyatts eyes fell on his long and messy hair before he came back in focus.
"I want to talk with Kai." He said with a firm tone, but again Ray read the unsecured under his facade.
"Really?" he answered with a yawn and leaned on the door frame. His morning mood wasn´t his best side, and Wyatt had been rude to him since the beginning so he didn´t feel bad about it. "He is in the shower."
Wyatt looked at him skeptically. "Kai´s usually ready for class at this time." The tone had not changed. Is matter of fact, it was getting worse.
"Well, let´s just say he had a tough night." He couldn´t help but smirk as he saw the offended look on the teens face. He almost wanned to laugh. Almost.
Wyatt sighed and tried to compose himself. "Look, I really have to talk with him. And that´s in a private conversation."
"Sorry, but Im not going anywhere, Im not even dressed yet."
"No, how could I failed to see that." Wyatt felt himself getting more and more angry. If Ray had been a dangerous and serious guy like Kai, then he would be scared of him, but this guy was sarkastik, confident, and very teasing. He wasn´t timid of him, he was annoyed with him.
"Am I sensing a little frustration from you Wyatt?" The tiger said even though it was obvious.
"Not at all Ray. Don´t mind me, Im happy to wait for Kai." He answered with a smirk of himself to see if he got a reaction. But Ray´s grin did not vanish.
"Sure, you can wait." And before he knew it Wyatt was met with the door making him stumble back with a shocked expression.
"Outside.." The Chinese blade muttered and started to get changed.
"Ray, why did you slam the door?" Kai asked as he came out with his school uniform and a towel he was using to dry his hair. His uniform was missing the green jacket and the white shirt was open by the neck and the arms was folded up to his elbows. A very messy Kai-ish look.
"You have company." Was the answer and Kai knew what happend. "Ray...I know its difficult for you, but was that really necessary?"
The raven teen bite his lower lip but gave in after a minute of silence. "No I guess not."
Went over for the door and opened it. "Wyatt. You up early."
"You think? Well, maybe I am." Said the teen with a smile. Ray almost rolled his eyes. Didn´t the kid point out earlier that Kai was up late?
"I thought we could spend the day together just you and I. You know, catch up."
"Of course!" Wyatt said quickly as he felt his heart skip a beat. This was the moment he had been waiting for. A day with Kai alone. Now he had the chance to score some points to.
"Oh, Ray." The tiger who had been with his back to them turned around slowly. "I know I deserved that door shut in my face. I want you to know that Im really sorry over my improper behavior in our match. I hope you can forgive me and hopefully we can be friends." He held out his hand and Ray just looked at it for a moment. After a moment of hesitation he realized that he could do this for Kais sake.
"Of course. And Im sorry to." He said and took the hand. "So, you two have a great day. I see you tonight Kai." He said and gave Kai his green jacket and pushed them out of the room. Wyatt started to walk as he was closing the door but a hand stopped its movement and Kai pushed it open to give him a heated kiss.
"I´ll se you later." He whispered and gave him one more before going after his friend. Ray couldn´t help but to smile as he closed the door and rested his forehead on the wooden surface.
---------
"When you said that we are spending the day together, then I thought we were.." Wyatt sulked in front of his math book.
"We are not skipping class. We also have history after this before we can go." Kai said as he was writing down the answer in his green notebook. "Thats an old habit of yours and Im about to change that."
" Sure, as long we spend some time together." The teen grinned making Kai look at him with a don´t- start- stare. " Wyatt.."
"So help me with that one." He interrupted and quickly pointed on a number in the book. Kai didn´t fall for it, but decided that it wasn´t a good time. "We talk about this later." He said and helped his friend with the task.
-----------
Ray was feeling much better when he was running in the school field. Gym class was his favorite, since he alway felt good when he could keep his body in motion. Sometimes he really missed the mountain in his village.
The gym uniform was not much different from the school uniform. He was wearing green loose fitting pants and a white T-shirt. His hair was wrapped in his usual wite band.
He only had two laps to go when he felt the first presence behind him since he started. Sure he took it easier right now, but he was still impressed that another student could keep up with him. He was blond with green eyes.
"Hi! Im Seth."
"Ray.." the tiger said and took his hand in a quick shake as they where running together.
"I have seen you around these days. You arrived recently right?" He asked and picked up the pace to see if Ray fallowed, wich his did. "Yeah, I will be here for a while. It a nice school."
"It should be, since it cost a fortune to go here. But Im not worried, my parents owns a big company down town. What about your family?"
Ray smiled a little at the comment. He had met rich teens before, Robert was one of the first since he didn´t know Kai was rich from the start. And Johnny too. Kai was the only one who hadn´t bragged about his money.
"It´s not expensive to be a exhange student. Im from a small village in China."
"Ah, I see. Very interesting."
"Last lap now guys." The teacher said as they went past him. The two lessons for the day had went by quick and Ray had memorized that he had lunch after this.
"Look, Seth, I think Im going to find a restaurant to eat lunch today. Could you give me a name of a good place?"
"Well, yeah. There are many places by the train station." He said and smiled. "If you want, I could join you.." he whispered making Ray to laugh.
"No, thats alright. Thanks." He said and quickened his piece and succeeded in leaving the blonde behind.
------------------
Wyatt hadn´t felt so happy in a long time. He was walking next to the love of his life and he couldn´t get that smile of his face.
"The weather is perfect today!"
"It sure is." Kai answered. He to was grateful that the classes was over. And it was not hard to spend some time with his friend as long he knew Ray was okay with it. They where walking over a little bridge to come to the crowded area of the town when a stand came to his view.
"Hey Wyatt, what do you say about ice cream before we go and have a talk?" he said and pointed at the subject.
"Yeah sure! I would love some!" the teen cried out in happiness.
Kai smiled as he thought his friend really acted like a kid as he went over and payd for two ice creams.
Soon they were sitting on the grass field under the bridge where they had spent many hours before. Kai was looking over the piece full water as Wyatt was still eating on his cold sweets. "Its been a while since I was back here. It took a little longer than I thought.." he admitted as he was thinking over his travels with his team.
"Yeah I know. I´ve really missed you." The brunette said as he for the first time look a little serious.
Kai took a deep breath and prepared himself. This conversation had been building up since Ray arrived but he had not looking forward to it. But it was now or never. Nothing that could interrupt this time.
"Wyatt..you know what we are going to talk about."
"...Yes."
"That stunt you pulled yesterday. What were you thinking?" he asked first in a calm voice.
"I..I..I told the thruth.. I do love you." Kai almost winced. This was going to be harder than he thought.
"Before that you couldn´t even tell me. And then you tell the whole school. It´s not like you.."
The brunette turned his face away. If he only could get Kai to understand his feelings. "I thought I wasn´t ready.. but I am.."
Kai took a deep sigh, thinking carefully what words he was going to use. "Wyatt..Ive been noticing your feelings for some time now. And to be honest, I didn´t put much thought to them, because you never told me. But now, when Ray is here, I feel like you are forced to convince yourself that you like me, even if you maybe not ready."
"Thats not true. I love you, I really do!" The boy cried out a little louder than he had meant.
"Do you know what love is? Have you ever been together with anyone?"
"Kai! Why are you talking to me like you supposed to talk with a child? I´ve been in love with you since you left. Don´t you remember, you'd saved my life on that rooftop. Don´t you know how precious that memory are to me?"
Kai still remembered that part. Wyatts match against Dunga had not been pretty. He would think that was the day Wyatt and him really became friends after the kid had apologized about his behavior in taken Dranzer.
"I remember that too, it was the that day, you convinced me that is was still worth to have Beyblade in my life." He said with a nod.
"So after all this time..how come we are not closer than we are Kai? Have you never even consider to have feeling for me?"
Kai kept silence for a while, which made the brunette to feel quite heavy in the chest. "It´s probably because you always been to shy to ask me. But I think about you as a important friend. And we will always be good friends, even if Im with Ray."
Wyatt couldn´t pretend that the last sentence didn´t hurt. "Kai..will you tell me about you two? I think it would be easier for me to understand if i knew a little more about him."
Kai looked at him a little unsure. Was that really a good idea? "Well, if you want to. You can ask me to stop if it feels uncomfortable." He said before thinking back.
"You probably know about Rays background. He and I was teammates from that Mr. Dickensson started Bladebreakers." He smiled at the memory. "At first Ray and I didin´t get along very well. He was more friend with Tyson and Max. I know he called me sourpass a couple of times."
"How rude." Wyatt slipped in.
"But after a while we started to getting closer and closer. We are the oldest ones on the team and sometimes it was nice to get away and talk about other things, without Tyson and Max.
So...one night when we were out training by our selfs we started to talk and ...things happend." He concluded.
"So..is it just physics relationship you have?" He asked sceptically.
"I didn´t say that."
"Do you have the same background?"
"Ray didn´t have as tough background as me." He answered honestly.
"Then do you have anything in common except Beyblade." Wyatt felt like he was really losing this battle. He had promised that he was going to be more open and strong so Kai would be impressed by him. He wanted to use this chance to show his crush that he could be worthy of his attention too.
Kai layd down on the grass with a confident smirk as his head rested on his arms. "Yeah, I guess we have."
"What?" the younger one asked as he looked at him, eager to hear what it was.
"...sex."
Wyatt felt his cheeks turn red so fast it was like turning on lamp switch. Kai couldn´t help to laugh at his expression. It was like he saw the old Wyatt and he felt relived.
"R-really?" the teen stuttered. "What about kisses?" `I hope that will be worth something.´
Kai was still smirking as he closed his eyes. "Yes, of course that too. That first one we shared was really special. It happens when you really care about the other person." Before he got the time to continue he felt unfamiliar lips against his own and his eyes flew open in disbelieve.
Wyatt felt his cheeks heat up again and he put his hand on Kais cheek. His whole body was like on clouds and he felt like he was going light headed. After a few seconds he reluctant pulled away and looked into his crush confused eyes. "like that?"
End of chapter 7!
There was the kiss! =D I knew most of you wanned that to happend so there you have it!Im sorry Kai was so soft in this one, I just wanned him to really try and get Wyatt to understand. Ray had told him to open up more and this was his try i guess. but he will be back in more Kai-ish attitude next chapter so don´t worry. ^^
