O praise be to my wonderful reviewers! I love you all! Now here is the next
chapter!
(p.s. I do not own Beyblade)
Last time on will this work....
Suddenly another bang, quickly followed by a loud "argghhh!", echoed through the hall.
"Looks like someone else just got lost and tripped" she remarked
The other klutz rounded the corner, staggering, where the light from the open door illuminated him.
"You!" Kai exclaimed, "what are you doing here?"
" What do you think you're doing here?" retorted Robert angrily as his knee at that particular moment was killing him.
"Hmph" Kai just looked away.
" Never mind why, what on earth is going on?" asked Gwen as she appeared through the door.
"These two guys are being examples of normal male evolutionary klutzes," explained Sophie
Both Kai and Robert where suddenly glad it was dark in the hallway so the girls could not see the bright blushes blazoned across their cheeks.
"Awn go easy on them soph, this place is a total maze and its easy enough to trip over something in the dark." Gwen had a much better idea of why these two were here, she knew that Sophie didn't have a clue, she never did in these matters, and like Luc she decided that it was time for her friend to have some fun.
"Very well Gwennie" suddenly she sighed. "I am sorry you two, I'm not normally this grouchy its just I'm always keyed up after our first performance in a new place. I hope you are not too offended?"
Robert and Kai hastily denied any feelings other than pure bliss. She smiled a beautiful sunny smile of relief at them and both of them went weak at the knees. In the background Gwen was grinning away like a Cheshire cat.
"In fact miss...?"
"Please call me Sophie"
"Sophie" said Robert rolling the name on this tongue and relishing the taste and sound of it. Also Kais jealous death glare, which he returned with a triumphant grin. "In fact I was coming down here to ask if you and your troop would care to the other beybladers and for dinner?"
"I'd love to. Sophie gleefully accepted. " The food at the apartments (in this story the troupe is sharing a apartment near the rehearsal rooms and dance hall) is nice but not what you'd call anything special."
"Wonderful, if we could just find the others then we could leave at once." He offered her his arm; she stared at it in surprise for a second but then quickly took it.
" I just hope they're not lost too, Gwen wasn't kidding when she said this place was a maze."
Their laughter floated back down the hallway to Gwen and Kai. "Well shall we go?" suggested Gwen, Kai just hmphed and stormed after the other two. "Oh yeah" thought Gwen to herself with a grin, "this is going to be fun."
At the restaurant.
They found the others quickly enough and then Robert had treated them all to the best restaurant in town. He found himself even more delighted with Sophie than ever, her childish naiveté and alternate turns of ironic humour were extremely amusing and her ready smile, when she aimed it at him, warmed him down to his toes. The others too were having a good time. Tyson was happy as the food had been great and now he and Max were talking about various beyblade attacks and defences, Ray and Oliver were talking about different styles of cooking (remember the second episode Oliver was in, Ray visited his chef relatives) Kenny and Gadget were talking about computers whilst Gwen and Johnny argued about who was the greatest, Scotland or Wales (Gwen's welsh). Luc was currently flirting with Emily and Mariah, both of whom were fighting to get his attention away from the other, and Enrique and Carmen were having a flirting match to see who could out flirt the other. ("Your eyes are so deep I could fall forever", "but I find myself utterly lost in the beauty of your hair" etc). In fact the only one not having any fun was Kai. He was not happy at all; in fact he was furious, furious at that 'red haired hussy' and that snobbish brit and even angrier with himself--- for caring.
"Hey look at the time, we better be going if we want to get a full days rehearsal tomorrow." Suddenly said Luc
"Yikes yeah." Sophie agreed, "thank you for the meal" she smiled shyly at Robert
"Your entirely welcome." He said smiling back.
"Why do you have to go anyway, you've already done your show so you know what you have to do, couldn't you just skip it." Interrupted Tyson
"Nuh uh" Carmen disagreed, " Dancers must practice everyday or we become too stiff and could hurt ourselves."
" Plus we change our act every night so we need to go over it anyway" added Gwen.
"Hey why don't you come visit us? Since you treated us its only fair you get a free show, plus maybe you'll end up wanting to quit beyblading and join our troupe instead. Then we could give you lessons." Teased Sophie
Though everyone of the beybladers looked horrified at the thought of quitting blading they all agreed to come see them at rehearsal the next day. As they said to their goodbyes Kai thought to himself "maybe this way I'll get her away from Roberts clutches. Once she sees what I can do."
Hey guys what do you think? Did you guess it was Robert? Or did you think it was someone else. Tell me who you thought it was and who you think should get the girl. And what does kai mean when he says he'll be the one to have Sophie when she sees what he can do. Do what? All questions and more answered on the next chapter of will this work?
