A/N: Hey I'm back, I'm just getting over my writers' block and I still
haven't found a co-author yet, but oh well. I've been really busy lately,
I've just started flute and damn it's hard! Plus I've got my schoolwork and
everything. It's so hard to balance stuff, and I'm really trying to work in
more time for writing, but there isn't enough time for everything. Oh well,
at least I've got another chapter up. I would also like to thank everyone
who reviewed, I REALLY appreciate it, I can't believe so many people like
it. This isn't my first story, but this is my only successful one, all my
others have crashed and burned, so I want to thank you for reviewing.
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!

Rei had a strong feeling that Kai was in trouble. As soon as he read that note, he knew it was him. The others were surprised when he suddenly took off in the direction of the park. Rei had no clue where Kai was really, but somehow, his feet knew exactly where he was and it led him straight to the park where Rei had talked to Kai earlier. He found Kai all right, but he wasn't exactly okay. Where Kai's grandfather had hit him earlier, there was a dark purple bruise that covered half his face. He sat slumped against the tree, apparently exhausted. Streaks that covered his face showed that he had been crying, his eyes were dull and lifeless.
Rei was shocked at the appearance his friend held, it was hard for him to see Kai, who seemed so strong, to look so defeated and vulnerable. Slowly he approached Kai, worried that any sudden movement might cause Kai to put up his defenses and push him away.
Kai knew that Rei was there, he had long since memorized the light step of his teammate. He slowly raised his eyes to meet that of his friend's, ashamed to let anyone see him like this, knowing he looked absolutely pitiful.
Rei approached Kai cautiously, he was worried, there was no doubt about that, but he was scared that he might let it slip that he loved the him, then he would never see the blue-haired boy again. As he got closer, Kai raised his eyes to meet his own, a sharp pain pierced Rei's heart, he felt helpless, like there was nothing he could do, it looked like Kai was hurt beyond repair.
Rei gently sat down next to him, Kai turned slightly so he could see him. He was confused, how could Rei have found out so quickly? His questioning eyes met Rei's and in response, Rei pulled the paper out of his pocket, "I just knew this had to be you."
Kai stared in shock at the paper, his neat penmanship filled the sheet, how had Rei gotten it? He remembered letting the wind carry it away, but of all people, how did Rei end up getting it? Well, Rei knew, he didn't have to hide it.
"You know," he whispered. Rei nodded, "I promise I won't tell anyone." Kai smiled weakly, "Thank you."
Rei remembered what the note had said, Kai had been kicked out and disowned, where was he going to stay?
"Kai," said Rei suddenly, "I know that you don't have a place to stay, do you want to stay at my house?" Kai was shocked, after how he had treated Rei, he still was kind enough to offer a him a roof over his head. Slowly, he nodded, "Thanks."
"Kai, I know what's happened, and if you ever need to talk to someone, you know you can always come to me, I'll always be here to listen." Again Kai nodded, "Thank-you." Rei smiled, "That's what friends are for." Then slowly, hesitantly, Rei put his arms around the other boy. Kai, was shocked, but was glad for the comfort. He began to relax in the other boy's embrace, and at that instant, he knew, he loved Rei.
A/N: Well? I, for one, am proud of that chapter, it took me a while to get this chapter written, but I did it!! Tell me what you think, I don't know if I should end it here and now, and leave the way it is, because I think this would have been a good ending. Or I can continue with the fic.what do you think?
