Chapter 28
Prozacfairy: Sorry for the late update. I have my reasons.
the tigris: I'm a Star Wars fan so I think trilogies all the time. I forgive you. :p
dead yet a love sick puppy: Roughly three weeks to go with this fic and that's all I'm saying
russle: I don't mind it when people suck up. And my apologies for the imagery. I have a vivid imagination too, unfortunately. Comes in handy at time though, right?
Koneko no Rei: I will read your update, I promise! And I had to add the Lee thing. Only fair to have all the stories out. Sorry.
Mizuyah: I wish I was sentimental sometimes. Then again, there are times I'm glad I'm not. And what was making you cry, out of interest?
Platinum Rei: You like the idea of a series? Most people kill me. [[sweatdrop]]
Chibi Wingzero: Not that I'm offended or anything, but what is wrong with my grammar? I'd like to know so I can try and correct it. Need to be good at grammar with the profession I'm aiming for, not to mention the course that I'm doing at Uni.
Zap Cannon: So, what happens if I do stop writing. :p
Now, away from those love birds, and over to these ones…
"So this is where Tyson grew up."
Oliver and Enrique looked up at the high walls of the Granger Dojo, studying its surroundings before Oliver placed his hand in the crook of Enrique's arm, the two moving inside the entrance. They paused, catching the sound of a Beyblade spinning and stepping around the side, smiling as they saw Tyson and Max battling, and perched on the step a brunette, laptop sitting on his lap as he typed keenly.
"So when did you get back, Kenny?" Oliver asked.
Kenny jumped, letting out a startled cry, gripping the sides of Dizzi so not to drop her. Spinning, he looked up. "Enrique! Oliver!"
"Well if it isn't out two favourite blading snobs," Dizzi said, causing Kenny's cheeks to redden.
"Eh, sorry bout that."
Enrique shrugged. "Doesn't worry us, we're used to it. Besides, the two snobs would be Robert and Johnny."
Oliver couldn't fight the giggle.
Kenny smiled only to falter as he saw that Oliver was still holding Enrique's arm, standing rather close. "Are you two together?"
Oliver nodded.
Kenny frowned. "Uh… okay. I've just go and get a drink. Later."
Enrique and Oliver exchanged a look, shrugging as Kenny vanished inside. Max and Tyson watched them, sighing.
"Kenny's a homophobic," Max explained.
"When we're blading he's fine," Tyson continued. "But as soon as we start giving each other the eye, he begins to complain."
"And if we kiss, he walks out of the room."
Tyson chuckled, elbowing his lover gently. "Remember when Ray laid into him about it? Aw man, I thought Chief was gonna burst a blood vessel. And I swear Ray's claws were out, literally."
Max nodded. "Good thing Kai stopped him when he did."
Oliver pointed in the direction Kenny had disappeared in. "So let me get this right, Kenny is a homophobic?"
The two Blade Breakers nodded.
Enrique blinked. "Must be hard when all his friends are gay."
"Probably about as hard as it is trying to snuggle up to Ty when Chiefs around," Max said, slipping his arms around Tyson's middle and setting his chin on the youngers shoulder. "You should have heard him arguing the irresponsibleness of teammates dating when he discovered we were first together… only to end up catching Kai and Ray making out behind his back."
Tyson looked back at him. "Give him a break, we were in shock too, remember?"
"Only cause Ray and Kai are almost complete opposites."
"Opposites attract," Oliver reminded them.
Max nodded. "Like Kevin and Lee."
"They're not complete opposites, I think," Enrique said. "They are both rogues, and both believe in honour and are loyal to their family, friends, and teammates. If there is one difference, it is that Kevin is a little rougher around the edges then Lee."
"Though Lee looks to be the rougher one," Oliver said, smiling. "They're both gorgeous, in their own way."
Max nodded his agreement.
Tyson rolled his eyes toward Enrique, sighing. "Don't you hate it when your boyfriends a flirt? That and that he's forever checking out hot guys?"
"Only when he's flirting with someone else." Enrique grinned and shrugged. "As for the hot guys, I don't care when he points them out to me."
Oliver smirks. "Like that one we saw in the shopping centre?"
"Exactly, thought I preferred the equally hot lady hanging off his arm."
Max snorted, looking at Tyson. "See what happens when one's bi?"
Tyson grinned and shrugged, turning to the two Majestics. "So how'd you find my place, anyway?"
"We asked Mr Dickenson for the address," Enrique replied, looking up as Kenny reappeared, though sitting just out of earshot. "He was only two happy to give it to us, as well as arranging a car."
"We were wondering if you'd heard from Kevin or Lee," Oliver said.
"Oh that's right, you guys don't know." Tyson stretched, taking his cap off to brush his hair back into place before dropping the cap back onto his head. "Kev rang last night. It all went according to plan."
Enrique's eyes lit up. "They're back together?"
"Yep." Tyson grinned. "We rang Kai and Ray last night to tell them, but we didn't have your number. We had to wait until we saw you to tell you."
"We'll give you the number," Oliver said, crossing his arms over his chest and looking up at Enrique. "I told you it would work."
"I never said it wouldn't." Enrique slid an arm around his waist, kissing him gently. "But then, you are from the country of love."
Oliver smiled, tugging at Enrique's vest as he smiled seductively. "And you are an Italian."
Enrique opened his mouth to say something when he felt a drop of rain. Looking up, his eyebrows rose slightly. "And we are about to get very wet."
As the skies opened in earnest, the four teens made a b-line for the welcoming doorway of the dojo.
It's raining, it's pouring…
