AN; thank you for the reviews! 100? I´m so happy! I hope you´ll continue to enjoy and review this story since it makes my day when I get your comments. Thank you for all of your help! Now, on with chapter 12.
"Oreta awai tsubasa
Kimi wa sukoshi
Aosugiru sora ni tsukareta dake sa
Mou dareka no tame ja nakute
Jibun no tame ni waratte ii yo, "
Tyson stares at the crowd below him without a sound because the people down there are really frustrated, hurt and probably mad at him. He knows that he has to face his friends' anger and questions but he doesn't know if he will handle the pressure.
"That was all I wanted to say." Tyson ends his speech.
DJ Jazzman stands there with wide eyes and mouth open still unable to grasp what Tyson just told the world. He almost drops the microphone when Tyson returns it as he passes by.
"Eh…" DJ Jazzman can't help but stumble after words. "That was all. Stop recording. "
He frowns as he put his hand over a camera and pushes the reporter away. The media people start to ask questions immediately and the cosy darkness in the room is ruined when they take pictures. Tomorrow's headline is now decided.
"I can't believe it… " A shocked Zeo murmurs.
The young man bites his lip to keep away his tears. His older team mate Gordo puts his hand on his shoulder. The red head has never really gotten to know Tyson well enough to like or hate him but this announcement did shock him. Tyson is a person he aimed to beat in the dish and he's no too sick to even enter the competition.
"Don't worry Zeo, Tyson is a strong man. "
Ozuma stares at Tyson´s retreating back with wide green eyes. He can't believe what one of his rivals just said. The master of the holy bitbeast Dragoon will die and the balance will be disturbed. One thing that scares him though is that he's more concerned about Tyson than the four bitbeasts´ fate.
"Oh my god." Mariam murmurs with a shocked expression on her face.
"Why didn't he tells us about this earlier?" Lee asks everybody in an angry voice. He seems to express his sadness through anger. "Has he been lying all this time?"
"Calm down Lee!" His sister Mariah tries to calm him down and stop the chaos.
"Don't blame Tyson!" Miguel tells everybody but aims at Lee. "The one in pain is him, not you, right?"
"Yeah stop talking shit about Tyson!" Rick agrees with Miguel.
"What do you mean talking shit? We are his friends so why didn't he tell us?" Johnny agrees with Lee.
And the verbal fight is started and the earlier happy and celebrating young bladers are arguing with pain behind their comments, anger behind their curses and confusion behind their falling tears. The quarrel almost gets physical when someone thinks it's enough.
"STOP IT!"
Everyone in the living room stops talking when a loud feminine voice breaks the noise. Mathilda stands behind the crown and everybody turns to glance her way. Several eyes narrow as they notice the tears in her eyes and their desire to fight fades.
"How can you fight in a time like this?" The girl murmurs in a sad voice. "Don't you understand that…"
Her voice breaks and she's forced to look away to gather up new courage. A heavy and tense silence spread in the room and everything seems to stand still. Lee and Miguel look at each other before looking away with a hint of shame in their eyes.
"This is the reason why he didn't tell us." Tala breaks the tense silence in a very cold voice. He continues on Mathilda´s sentence without showing her any sign of acknowledgement. "He knew that you would react this way."
His ice-cold eyes make the others stay silent. Tala looks away and his team mate nods, before they leave the party. The tense atmosphere breaks somewhat as the Russians exits the building and everybody inhales deeply.
Tyson sits in the living room with his cellphone in his hand, he's waiting for a reply from a certain Russian. He typed him a message yesterday, asking Kai to help him with his list, but he has still not replied. This makes Tyson wonder, Kai use to be the one who answers right away.
Several loud knocks are heard and the sound makes the younger Granger sigh with irritation. Tyson has not been able to leave the house without getting jumped by reporters that wants him to answer some questions. It can be both journalists or friends but it still hard to face them after the party some days ago. Tyson wants that everybody should accept the fact that he's dying quickly and move on, so he can actually die in peace.
"Hiro can you..?" Tyson asks his brother to open the door since he´s to tired and dizzy to do it himself.
"Yeah, damn reporters. They've no limits!"
Hiro walks toward the door, opens it and is just about to tell whoever it's to leave when his expression changes. Tyson leans in the sofa to see who the person are but he can't see him.
"Why did you decide to show up now?" Tyson hears how Hiro asks the person in the doorway. His brother's angry tone makes him tense and alert. "Don't you've work to do?"
"Hiro, I rushed over when I got the news. I had no idea…."
"That's only natural since you never bothered to see how we were doing." Hiro interrupts the man in an angry voice.
"Where's Gramps?" The man changes the subject to avoid Hiro´s growing rage.
Tyson's eyes widen as he sees how the man leans to take a look inside the house. It's the man that he could never forget or forgive; his father. His body turns cold at the sight of him and he leans back so he won't get noticed.
"Gramps is currently practising Kendo and doesn't want to get disturbed."
"I'm his son, of course he wants to…"
"I'm your son! …And look how you treated me and Tyson." Hiro counter attacks. "Go back to Australia and dig after your bloody dinosaurs!" Hiro snaps at him.
Hiro shuts the door violently, in the man's face. A deep sigh leaves the older Granger's lips as he rejoins Tyson in the living room in front of the TV. He can feel the way his brother is glancing at him before he turns away to stare expressionlessly at the moving pictures on the TV screen.
"Tyson are you alright?" Hiro breaks the silence.
"Yeah, thanks." Tyson sighs at last. " I didn't expect him to come."
Number 7 on Tyson's list is that his father would return home but he finds it hard to accept. His return won't change the fact that his job is more important to him than his family. Tyson is well aware of that his father started to create a distance between himself and his family when his mother died several years ago. He used his job as an excuse to get away from his pain and responsibilities as a father and only returned when he had to. Tyson wants his old father back, he wants his family to stay together when his time's up. So he can't really say that he completed number 7 at all.
A soft pat on his shoulder takes Tyson back to reality. Hiro smiles down at him weakly before he helps his younger brother to move into the kitchen. Tyson's stumbling has gotten a lot worse and he can't walk without losing his balance or looking funny anymore. It's hard to see him getting weaker by each passing day and the Granger family has started to prepare themselves for the final day.
Tyson looks at the screen of the cellphone once again but still no reply from Kai.
Tyson walks slowly towards Max´s place. He ignores everyone around him since they either looks at him strangely, starts talking about how sorry they are or treats him like some freak. Some small children snickers and calls him a duck since he walks like one when others can't face him due to their sympathy. He knew he did the right thing to tell the world but he has to face the consequences of his actions.
Tyson feels how his body objects when he walks up the stairs to finally arrive at the street Max lives. It seems like he can't endure a normal walk without breaking a sweat anymore. He wipes his forehead clean before he knocks on the door.
"Hey Tyson!" Max greets him with a smile. "Come in. Do you want some soda?"
"Yeah sure."
Max helps Tyson to enter the room since a pair of quite bothersome stuff is lying in the way. It feels strange to get help with such an easy task but nothing is easy for Tyson now. Tyson glances at Max when the blonde drags him through the corridor, past the living room and into the kitchen. It's like the American doesn't want him to see something.
"Here, it's my favourite; melon flavoured." Max hands him the drink. "Let's sit down, ok?"
Tyson and Max sit down by the kitchen table and enjoy the cold drink together. The nice tasting liquid makes Tyson's hot body feel better and his sweating stops after a while. He looks at Max´s face with an eerie feeling growing in his stomach; is the blonde hiding something from him?
"Have you seen Kai? I can't reach him on the phone." Tyson can't help but think that it's something about Kai that makes the always bubbly man to act this way.
"Kai? Well he didn't show up for yesterday's battle but he said he had something important to take care of." Max answers honestly. "He's the mysterious type so…"
Tyson nods. So he hasn't only avoided me…It makes him feel a little better but Max´s tense smile doesn't disappear. It must be something else bothering the American. Tyson takes another sip of his soda. I'm always thinking about Kai nowadays…
"Hey, Maxie. Is there something bothering you?"
"What? No!" Bull's eye.
"You can tell me. Everyone has been really nice to me so I might be able to return the favour. What has happened?"
"It's nothing, really."
Tyson knows it's not true but doesn't push the other any further. The two of them drinks in silence until a pair of far away voices breaks the silence. Max´s eyes widen while Tyson leans to his side in an attempt to see who's talking in the hobby shop. Max jumps out of his chair and cuts of Tyson´s view by waving his arms. Tyson frowns and gets up his feet.
"Max out of the way."
Max is about to object but he can't when Tyson glares at him. He sighs and steps to the side in defeat. Tyson stumbles through the corridor and looks into the hobby shop. His eyes widen at the sight.
"Father!" Tyson gasps.
The man, who's currently talking with Max´z dad, turns around and their eyes meet.
"...Tyson."
Tyson fidgets with his cup of coffee and avoids looking at his father. After the meeting at the hobby shop Tyson agreed to eat lunch with his father and they're now sitting together at a nice restaurant. But the nice surroundings, the nice scent of newly baked pizzas and the bright sun doesn't make Tyson feel any more comfortable. It makes him feel ill.
"So you're back." Tyson tries to start a conversation by stating the fact.
The man takes of his cowboy hat and Tyson looks at his face. He has aged since he last saw him and the wrinkles around his eyes have grown more noticeable.
"Yeah…I arrived in Japan this morning."
"Oh." He was in a hurry… huh…
A new uncomfortable silence takes place and both of them tense somewhat. Tyson sees how his father tries over and over again to restart the conversation but he can't find the right words.
"I heard about the… about the cancer." He finally says.
"Yeah I guess so. The whole world knows by now." Tyson is sure to make it clear; the fact that he knows isn't a big deal to him since everybody knows now.
"It's hard dad, hard to see if you're serious. The only thing your serious about is your job." Tyson tells the man truthfully. "It's true that I want us to become a family but I don't know now. Maybe it's too late?"
"I want to be there for you, I know that I've not been a great father but I want to change that before it's to late."
He wants to tell Tyson that there's still time left but he only sees faults. Tyson sees it like his father's regretting not being there because he'll feel guilty when Tyson passes away. Maybe he arrived in Japan to make him feel better about himself?
"So you're doing this for your sake?" Tyson snaps. "You only want to ease the feeling of guilt, right? Or do you care?"
"Tyson…" He complains, irritated by the way Tyson sees things.
"It's so hard! And confusing!" Tyson exclaims. "How can I trust you?"
The two of them stare at each other for a long time. The older of the two is in deep thought since he knows that every word that comes out of his mouth is greatly judged by his son. He sighs deeply before he commences.
"I thought I would have more time to make things good again so I wanted to take my time and figure out how to apologise properly. But seeing you on the TV, telling everyone about the cancer, made me understand that there's not much time left at all. That's why I had to do this and act like…" He tries to explain. "I shouldn't had taken time for granted. I'm sorry."
Tyson can't help but feel slightly surprised by the sincere apology and he can't find something to doubt in his words. Everybody makes mistakes, right? Maybe he really wanted to be here in Japan all along…with us. The angry expression fades from his face and he looks, really looks, into his father's eyes for the first time.
He came and supported him during the championship in Russia several years ago, the memory of the cold night comes back to Tyson, and new hope starts to grow. His father has supported them in several ways even though he rarely showed his face. An example is money. Tyson is well aware of that Gramps could never run the dojo or pay the bills with the money from the kendo lessons alone, these are facts that the champion has forgotten due to all feelings and stress. It might be Tyson who acts spoiled when he wants his family to be together?
Tyson shakes his head before he dares to send the man a small and hesitant smile. The Japanese young man knows that he won't gain anything by blaming his father any longer. He can't gain anything without risking anything.
"Why don't stay at the dojo for a while? Gramps would be glad but…you better apologise to Hiro too. Dad."
"Yeah, that sounds nice…"
"Good." Tyson answers with a small smile. "I've to go now, I need to talk to Kai. I see you later ok?"
Tyson pushes himself up from the chair with some labour and stumbles away towards the exit. His father follows Tyson's every move with a distant and sad expression on his aged face.
Several grey clouds cover the sky and the sun has no chance to shine down on Tokyo's streets this day. Tyson is sitting on a park bench in thought; so much has happened in no time at all. He thought that the party would make him tired but now when his father is here, everything had gotten worse and it makes him so stressed. He has a huge decision to make and he want Kai´s opinion on it but he's not been around for days now. The sudden cold wind makes him shiver.
He has to decide if he should take the medicine or not and he has no clue what option that's going to give him most time. Tyson will live longer if he takes the medicine but he'll feel really sick and weak all the time and probably be bedridden. He'll feel pain if he doesn't take the medicine and he'll die faster, but the dizziness due to drugs will not affect him and hinder him from doing what he wants.
Tyson thought that he would feel so much better after he told the world about the cancer but new problems, fears and worries are always submerging. There's always pressure and a time limit around everything and this make Tyson very stressed, depressed and frustrated. He can't do anything the normal way any more! And new problems will surely come up now when his father has returned.
Tyson looks at his phone but there's still no answer from Kai. Tyson's theory that the Russian's phone was discharged is now proved to be wrong. Kai has always charged it when the battery was low years of sharing rooms has taught Tyson that. Maybe it's true, that he's avoiding me. Tyson's heart starts to ache painfully. He can't deny that he also thought that it would be better to quit seeing him before things got too serious but it feels terrible now. Their imitate moments are something that he sees each time he closes his eyes, the heat is playing in repeat and he finds himself longing for him strongly. I can't take this…fucking Kai, we could have discussed this!
Tyson breathes out with a shaky breath and runs his fingers through his hair. Everything is slowly getting to him and stress together with heartache is something he doesn't like too much. I need to talk to him. I don't care if he hates me or are disgusted with me…I just need to hear his voice. Tyson types Kai´s name and his number appears on the screen, he decides to call him instead of sending him a message. His heart beat races as he listens to the signals that are another proof that his phone isn't discharged; it's on. C´mon pick it up! But his heartbeat slows down with each passing signal and the warm, exiting feeling turns into a cold one.
"The person you're calling can't answer right now, please try again later."
His emotions runs through him like a cold shower as the woman's voice reaches his ears. He puts the phone in his pocket and leans back while he sighs once again. I guess I've to stop calling him.
"That bastard…I hate him."
Tyson hides his head in his hands as he tries to swallow the pain and need to cry. Tyson hates his emotional side and the fact that he gets weaker and weaker both physically and mentally. Men don't cry dammit! He tells himself.
"…Maybe I should call Max, so he doesn't worry…"
Something that bothers Tyson is Dragoon. He feels so bad since he hasn't trained for a very long time. He sits in the grass near the river while Rei, Kenny and Max are beyblading below him. Hilary is acting a judge and her high voice disturbs the calmness somewhat. Everything seems to slow down when a familiar silhouette appears on the bridge above them.
"Kai!"
The said captain snorts before he jumps down and lands gracefully on the ground next to Hilary. His toned hair frames his face nicely as he straightens up his body once again and walks to join the beyblade match.
"So you decided to show up?" Max asks him.
"Why this spectacle about me? Get back to practice." Kai tells them in an irritated voice. "Dranzer need training."
Tyson looks at Kai and is about to greet him, or say something, when he passes by but the Russian doesn't spare him a glance. The small amount of hope slowly fades in Tyson's chest and he bites his lip painfully as he looks elsewhere.
"Tyson…?" Rei murmurs, the neko-jin looks at Kai and Tyson with confused eyes.
"Everybody lets do a small competition, our match against the All Stars are coming up." Kai interrupts Rei´s thoughts
It doesn't take long until the beybladers are at it, fighting each other intensively but Tyson is still confused by the lack of motivation. It seems like his friends can't find their inner strength or that they're thinking of something else. It was a long time ago that he last saw his team in this kind of shape and it scares him. If their training continues like this I….Tyson feels how his troubles are only getting worse, will he ever be able to rest in peace?
"What's wrong with you guys?" Tyson questions. "Your skills are really…"
No one answers him but Max, Kenny, Rei and Hilary slows down a bit and looks away, some at the ground others at the sky. They're all frowning and looks kind of frustrated with themselves.
"Kai what's going on!?" Tyson shouts at him. "Everyone's beyblading skills are… hey, are you ignoring me?"
"Kai I'm talking to you!" Tyson complains at Kai´s lack of attention. "How can you let this happen to my team?"
"Your team? Sorry Tyson but I've not seen you around the dish for a long time now. You're not the champion anymore." Kai howls back angrily, accidentally blaming him for the other's lack of motivation. Don't you see that we're blading like this due to your sickness???
"What?" Tyson gasps and is quick to try to explain himself. " I didn't mean it like…"
"Hn." Kai interrupts with a snort and is about to turn away.
"Kai!" Tyson complains.
"Shut the hell up, Tyson!" Kai growls at him.
Tyson reels back by shock at Kai´s sudden outburst. Kai continues to walk away. Tyson looks at the Russian´s back with a pained expression on his face but decides to not run after him. He can't understand what's happening. Kai seems to hate him, the others are all out of shape and his father suddenly decided to show up; everything is happening at the same time. He can't force him to like him, right?
"T-man, did you have an argument with Kai earlier?" Max asks Tyson in a worried tone.
"…Not really." Tyson murmurs as he tries to keeps his emotions to himself.
"I´ll go and talk to him." Rei tells them at last and runs after Kai without any further explanation.
Rei´s hair floats behind his back nicely as he hurries to catch up to his upset captain, but his facial expression is not nice at all. He's angry. Rei grabs Kai´s sleeve as he reaches him and forces the man to stop walking for once.
"Kai." Rei utters his name angrily. "What are you trying to pull?"
"What are you talking about?" Kai tries to act ignorant. He pulls his arm free from Rei´s hold quite violently though. "Tyson needed to…"
Rei looks at him for a long time and Kai frowns as he sees how the neko-jin´s fangs reflect the sun as its beams hit them. The fact his him; Rei can see though his lies and Kai´s words are lost.
"I know that you're not dumb so stop playing games! So you're just going to leave things like this, huh? Walk away?" Rei makes gestures with his hands to strengthen his opinion.
"It's best this way…" Kai explains. "Don't see? Our team is falling apart …"
"So you mean that we would be able to win if we distance ourselves from Tyson? You're nuts!" Rei interrupts him quite rudely, but it's necessary.
An intense pain invades Kai´s sense of touch suddenly and he reels back as Rei punches his cheek, hard. Red eyes narrow at this and the Russian touches his throbbing cheek while staring at Rei. The neko-jin is glaring at him like never before and is standing in a fighting pose with his arms close to his head. A deep sigh leaves the Chinese man's lips and he lowers his guard.
"What are you…?" Kai questions the man.
"No, Kai you're scared and too proud to admit it. You're just running away because you're afraid to get hurt!" Rei snaps at him. "I didn't think you could be this selfish. It's actually Tyson who's hurting the most here."
Kai can't bear to look Rei in the face anymore so he looks away with something close to shame on his face. His shame is turns to anger quickly and he looks up at his team mate with fiery eyes.
"What do you know?!" Is Kai´s final attempt to make himself look not too pathetic.
"What I know is…. That you love him!" Rei tells him bluntly.
"…" It takes Kai by surprise.
Kai opens his mouth but closes it again quickly; he finds no words. His red eyes are wide with mixed emotions in their depths but even though Rei can't read him like an open book, he's aware of that he succeeded in breaking Kai´s facade.
"Do something about it." Is Rei´s final words.
The neko-jin gives Kai a stare before he turns around to rejoin the others near the river. Kai stares at the Chinese man's back absentmindedly while touching his now slightly swollen cheek. Kai closes his eyes and exhales deeply to ease his stress and raging emotions. He makes a fist. Rei is right, I'm a coward…
The noise that's created when you break apart the onetime chopsticks breaks the very tense silence around the kitchen table. The Granger family is sitting together like they did a long time ago but the nice and cosy atmosphere Tyson recalls from his childhood is not there. Hiro is eating in a deadly silence and is completely ignoring his father's presence at the table that of course makes the man even more uncomfortable. Gramps tries to make the situation better by telling some jokes who nobody understands while Tyson sits and stares at his bowl of rise without touching the food.
"Shouldn't you eat?" His father asks him.
"I'm not so hungry." Tyson answers.
He has been feeling dizzy and ill for the largest part of the day and would probably risk throwing up if he eats something. His constantly throbbing back doesn't make thing better either. It's starting to become a burden just to be awake and Tyson wonders how long it'll take until he doesn't wake up. He takes a sip of his glass of water and swallows the cold liquid slowly.
"Eat something, you're looking very thin and…"
"Can't we talk about something else?" Hiro interrupts the man when he notices what he wanted to ask.
"Calm down, Hiro." Gramps warns his grandson.
Tyson looks at his food before he pushes away the bowl in a sign that he's finished.
"Gochisosama deshita." Thank you for the food.
Tyson pushes himself from the floor and stumbles a little before he finds his balance and is able to move. He uses his hand to get extra support as he walks so he won't fall accidentally. He makes his way to his room and lies down on the bed with a sigh.
"Can't you just try to act as a family?" Tyson sighs deeply once again as he murmurs his wish.
Tyson turns to look at the old photo of his mother that is standing on his desk. The soft smile on her lips is something that he misses to see in reality and he closes his eyes. It's time to take my medicine…He sighs. Mother…I´ll soon join you in heaven. But is he ready to leave this place yet? No, there's still a lot that has to be done. Kai…
Tyson wakes up slowly and a low groan leaves his lips as he does. His head and back are aching like never before and the intense feeling makes him want to return to his dream world once again. He touches his forehead as he reaches out to grab the bottle of pills on his desk and swallows two of them with a sip of water. It tastes just like plastic.
The sun is shining through his window and the light forces him to squint. It seems like today is going to be a nice day. But the fact doesn't really cheer Tyson up. He feels so depressed and lost right now so some warm and nice weather isn't enough to make him feel happy again. The quarrel with Kai yesterday is in his mind and he feels really confused. Something must be bothering him because Kai seldom acts like that. His heart starts to ache. Tyson wants to comfort Kai like he has comforted him but the stoic Russian doesn't seem to want him to get too close too him. It hurts even more.
He hides his face in his fluffy pillow. I can't go on like this. It feels like I'm suffocating myself. Tyson forces himself to move even though his throbbing body tells him not to and he gets out of the bed to prepare himself for the day. I need to tell Kai how I feel before it kills me. I want him to kiss me again. I want him to hold me close and take away this pain. Tyson puts on his shirt slowly and notices how thin he looks in the mirror. I need to settle this before I fade away so I…don't get any regrets.
Tyson is greeted by the smell of fried eggs as he exits his room and he feels even sicker than before. Food isn't something he wants anymore. He enters the kitchen and finds his grandpa and brother there but his father is nowhere to be seen. Tyson's eyes widen at his absence.
"Where is dad?"
"Who knows? He was gone when I got up." Hiro replies indifferently.
He went away again? Tyson can't help but fear that his father broke the promise and ran way to Australia again. Shaking his head he sits down and forces down two eggs and a glass of milk.
"Are you gonna meet the dudes?" His grand father asks him.
"I dunno. I need to talk with Kai so I´ll be away for a couple of hours."
"Take your cell phone with you, call us if something happens."
"Yeah yeah."
Tyson tries to enjoy the sun's warmth as he walks down the street towards Kai´s apartment but his nervousness and pain won't let him. He swallows his fear as he enters the apartment building. He finds Kai´s door and knocks loudly. His heart starts to beat faster in his chest by each passing second but it fades when he gets no reply.
"Kai? Are you there?" Tyson calls out.
Tyson can hear Kio on the other side of the door. The little cat seems to recognise his voice and the animal scratches at the door. Another sound from the inside makes the champion tense since it can't be an animal.
"Kai, it's Tyson. We need to talk."
It takes some time but the Russian opens the door slowly, almost hesitantly, and greets Tyson in a way that angers the Japanese man.
"…What do you want?" He asks indifferently while not daring to look at Tyson.
Tyson stares at the enigma for a long moment and a cold feeling invade his whole being as he notices the troubled expression on Kai´s face. It both angers him and makes him sad. Tyson can't take Kai´s coldness any more and he knows that he's about to explode.
"Kai your fucking bastard, don't you understand!?" Tyson screams his lungs out. "I LOVE YOU!"
Red eyes widen as Tyson dashes forward and pushes him past the doorway. Kai almost loses his balance as Tyson pushes him backwards harshly, but his back collides with a wall and keeps and him on his feet. Tyson keeps Kai still by grabbing the other man's wrists firmly. Kai loses his breath as Tyson´s body crashes into his and he gets no time to inhale fresh air since Tyson covers his mouth with a pair of hungry lips. Kai emits a surprised sound and his crimson eyes get as small as the head of a needle at the sudden show of affection. It has always been Kai who forced Tyson into a kiss before, but their roles are now reversed. This fact makes Kai unconsciously thrilled.
Tyson tilts his head to the side and deepens the kiss quickly, which makes Kai stiffen at first but the comfortable warmth radiating from Tyson makes him relax and give in to the pure feeling. Their tongues battle in a fierce battle for dominance that Kai loses due to his lack of oxygen. Kai turns away, breaking the kiss to breathe in and out deeply. He is so hot and confused at the moment and Tyson's closeness drives him crazy. A low groan leaves his throat as the Japanese man grinds their hips together in an attempt to feel more of the other. Tyson let go of Kai´s wrists and puts his hands on Kai´s hips when he's sure that Kai won't run away from him. He crushes their bodies together in an attempt to get even closer to the enigma and gives him butterfly kisses on the neck. Kai runs his hands up Tyson's arms sensually and is slowly returning his affections when Tyson suddenly stops.
"You can't abandon me now, not when I'm in this deep." Tyson tells him in a pleading voice.
Tyson holds Kai close while burying his head against Kai´s shoulder.
"Tyson I…." Kai murmurs, not really sure what to say.
"I had completed number 6 a long time ago without really noticing it. I've been in love with you for a while now."
Kai´s red eyes gets larger at the confession. Tyson was able to do something he could not once again; being true to his emotions.
AN; thank you for reading!! Sure I´ve made Tyson´s father (what's his name??) seem very mean but I think there are a lot of parents who are like that in the real world and when something terrible happens everything changes.
Some random questions answer if you've time or want to give your opinion
Do you think Tyson should take the drugs or not?
Do you want this story to go into the label "mature" later on? (how much details do you want in the future yaoi/lemon scenes?)
How do you think the rest of Bladebreakers will react when they find out about Kai and Tyson?
What do you think will happen to the Bladebreakers as Tyson gets sicker?
Don't worry, I've a plan it's just that I want to know what you think and how you think about these subjects. It's soon summer vacation!!! The english translation for the poem is;
"Pale broken wings,
you're just a little tired
from the sky which is too blue
Don't do it for anyone else
Just smile for yourself."
I personnally think that Japanese can´t be fairly translated into english but it´s something like that. It´s the song "Alonez" By Aqua Timez and you might have heard it from the anime Bleach. Hope you enjoyed the chapter, please R&R!
