DISCLAIMER: I do not own Beyblade
Ghost5: This is where it's going to get romantic
WITH THIS CHAIN I THEE WED THE SEQUELCHAPTER TWELVE: REMINISCENCE
After lunch Ethan had decided to put on a talent competition, children began getting up and showing off their talents.
"Miss Faith can you sing for us?" asked a little boy
Faith blushed; she nodded and got up.
"Come on Rachel you can be my backing singer, I know I'm going to need some support, you know I don't like singing in front of crowds Ethan this is unfair, besides you'll have Kai wanting to leave the moment he hears my caterwauling" Faith complained
"We'll let him decide sis, besides I think you've got a great voice," Ethan said proudly
Faith began to sing.
If I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I'd take back all the words that have hurt you,
And you'd stay
I don't know why I did the things I did,
I don't know why I said the things I said,
Cries I couldn't have it can cut deep inside
Words are like weapons they wound sometimes,
I didn't really mean to hurt you,
I didn't wanna see you go,
I know I made you cry
But baby if I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I'd take back all the words that have hurt you,
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars,
I'd give them all to you,
Then you'd love me, love me, like you used to do,
My world was shattered I was torn apart,
Like something iatrical happened broke it deep in my heart
You walk out that door I swore that I didn't care,
But I lost everything darlin' then and there,
Too strong to tell you I was sorry,
Too proud to tell you I was wrong,
I know that I was blind
And darlin' if I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I'd take back all the words that have hurt you,
And you'd stay
If I could reach the stars,
I'd give them all to you,
Then you'd love me, love me, like you used to do,
If I could turn back time,
If I could turn back time,
If I could turn back time,
I didn't really mean to hurt you,
I didn't wanna see you go,
I know I made you cry
Whoawh,
If I could turn back time,
If I could find a way,
I'd take back all the words that have hurt you,
If I could reach the stars,
I'd give them all to you,
Then you'd love me, love me, like you used to do
"You know the rest I'm sure" Faith finished her cheeks were scarlet red with embarrassment.
"You sing pretty good still" Kai complimented
Dinner was served and everyone sat down to a good meal of good old-fashioned English soup, followed by roast chicken for the main course then chocolate cake for pudding.
Ethan lead the children in clearing the long table and taking the plates to the kitchen, Kai and Faith went outside; the stars twinkled and the moon was out lighting up the midnight blue sky, it was a very romantic setting.
Both of them sat side by side on a picnic bench.
"Look at you, all woman now" Kai admired looking her over
"What did you expect I wasn't going to be flat chested forever you know?" she answered
"Do you remember the time when you caught us hiding in the equipment cupboard in the girl's changing room?" Kai asked smirking at the memory
"How can I forget, you, and Tala got what you deserved," she replied
"Put us off going anywhere near the girl's changing room for a while" Kai answered

* Flashback *
"Come on Kai, haven't you always wanted to know if they talk about us?" Tala asked curiously
Kai narrowed his eyes, he knew there was going to be trouble; if Faith caught them hiding in the equipment cupboard watching her and the girls getting changed for PE he'd might as well make his will and testament right now, she'd kill him.
Kai released a breath in a hiss, Faith would only kill him better him than his accomplices anyway he knew he could sweet talk his way out of trouble with Faith, she was after all his best friend.
Tala, Lee and himself dashed into the girls changing room and hid in the equipment cupboard, Kai was curious to know what the girls talked about when the boys weren't around, unlike the other two who had something else in mind.
The door crashed open and in came a flood of chattering girls, then came Mariah and Faith talking about Tyson and his stupid antics.
"I swear Tyson and Enrique have a bet going on, see how many girl's they can date till there aren't any left in the college" Mariah said angrily
"Perhaps Tyson needs to settle down and get himself a girl, it might focus his mind and teach him a thing about responsibility" Faith said seriously opening her locker and taking her netball skirt and t-shirt out.
"Yeh I guess" Mariah replied thoughtfully
"He's just arrogant, I bet if Kai beat him in a battle it'll wake him up and put a stop to that god like attitude he's got going on" Faith suggested taking her top off exposing her training bra.
"You're only saying that because Kai is your best friend" Mariah moaned
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"I knew it Kai your best friend is so flat chested" Tala complained moving away from the hole in the door.
"Shut up or we're gonna get caught" Lee snapped tripping over a basketball and causing a small sound.
"Now you've done it," Tala snarled
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
There was a small clatter coming from the cupboard, frightening all the girls.
"We've got a ghost!" a girl squealed
Faith narrowed her eyes looking at the cupboard.
"Or maybe visitors" she said darkly
Everything was dead quiet for a moment, then the buzzing of conversations quickly continued as they exited through the door.
Kai crawled to the hole in the door expecting to see an empty changing room; instead he came across two burning dark eyes, Kai eyes widened in fright.
"Uh oh" we're the last words to be uttered before the cupboard doors swung open.
Faith stood towering above the crouched boys with her arms crossed over her chest, she was wearing her netball skirt and shirt.
"You best get out and not let me catch you in here again" she scowled
The boys followed her to the gym.
"Okay dodge ball" the teacher announced
Everyone picked up a ball.
"Say your prayers Newman" Tala said smugly
"Write your Will Tala" Faith replied darkly
"Emily, take Tala out, Mariah you take Lee no guess who I'm going to take" she whispered
The two girls nodded sadistically, Kai knew that this was going to be war; everyone lined up and got ready; the whistle blew and the game began, people were being hit left right and centre till at last it was narrowed down to the last six people.
Lee, Kai and Tala stood on one side of the gym looking nervous, while Mariah, Faith and Emily stood on the other looking as cool as ice, it had become a stand off and the girls were going to make them pay.
The whistle blew and the game began; Tala threw his ball Emily dodged and threw her ball at him, Tala fell to his knees moaning in agony.
"Emily hitting a guy in his jewels is uncalled for, even if they were spying on us in the equipment cupboard" Mariah said sympathetically.
Faith threw her ball at Kai, he ducked easily and threw his at her; she caught it and threw it hard back at him, Kai had just enough time to see the dodge ball hurtle straight for him before it hit him in the face, he fell to the floor with concussion, he came round within moments to see Faith kneeling beside him looking very upset.
"Kai, Kai you okay buddy, I'm so sorry" she apologised worriedly
"No problem, I should have seen that coming" he replied
"That's going to leave a mark tomorrow" Emily joked
Kai looked at Faith angrily she looked at him concerned, he grunted before grinning.
"You play too rough" he moaned Faith chuckled before helping him up.
