thank-you ppl for having an open mind unlike lee... I would have never thought anyone here in america
would even think about a pairing like Byran/Tala but, hey, you guys/gals proved me wrong!

Guardian- O.o are you trying to write a fic for every pairing in beyblade or something?
forget-me-not- yeah, I'm guessing I placed the time when they have just completed their
trainning.
kawaii lil angel of darkness- i HATE the names dubbers choose (sometimes,like I can't
say Kai since they didn't change that) i mean, Tala? What sort of name is that? But
Tala is sooooooooo cute! and hot... I night add kai/tyson but I hardly think that
they would even show up though... I like Tala japanese name, it means lily, that's a girl's
name but then Yuri in Russia is a guy's name, sort of funny when you think about it.
KumoriTakisheru- ^________^ thanks for the cookie. Me like...
Mystik-chan- opps... I thought it was wolfberg, my mistake.
vulpix104- I'm going to, seeing that ppl are really reading this.
marsdemon- hehe, everyone thinks that it's a weird couple, no offense, it's just
that I think they make the perfect couple, hehe, I'm weird.
Psycho Violinist of Silentwood- no need to beg.
Aznfiregoddess- i'm soooo slow at updating aren't i?
Yay!!!- Yuri could mean girl/girl or it could mean lily which is a nice name

Tala shivered as the cold night air lingered in the room, Byran watched not knowing what to do, he
had never had worried about anything else besides beyblading since he was young and defeninly
didn't know what to do when someone was sick.

'geez... I'm so useless...What am I going to do, I can't tell Boris...'

Byran glanced at the clock, 2:45.

'that's it, I'll sneak into Tala's room, grab a dry set of clothes...'

Byran grabbed Tala's still damp jacket and searched the pockets for his keys, finally, he had
found them. he grabbed the keys and walked over to the bed.

"Hang on Tala." He stroked Tala's pale, cold, white skin. Then he paused, reached down and planted
a little kiss on Tala's soft cheek. "I love you..."

Byran stuck his out the door of his room and glanced outside. He slowly stepped out
and silently ran down the hall. He glared at the doors in the hall, as if daring them to
open. Finally, he had reached his destination, in front of him was a dull colored
door with a small sign saying 'Tala' pasted on the right side. He pulled out the key
to the room and was about to open the door when he heard footsteps.

'shit... come on! open up!' he cursed mentally at the door.

"Byran? Is that you?" A boys voice whispered.

"Ian? Thank god... You scared me! Why aren't you sleeping?" Byran glared at the
small boy in front of him.

"Tala didn't show up... I waited for him until Boris told me to go in..." Ian frowned, "are
you trying to break into Tala's room?"

"no, I- Look, I'll explain inside." Byran opened the door and stepped inside then closed
the door after Ian had came in. He reached over and lit a candle.

"I was going to get Tala a set of dry clothes, he fell into the river..." Byran opened up
the top drawer and flipped through some clothes, "Did you tell Boris?"

"No, I was worried..." Ian frowned as he watched Byran mess up Tala's drawer, "Here."

Ian pulled on the 3rd drawer from the top and inside were sets of clothes folded neatly.

"Um, thanks..." Byran picked out a set of clothes and headed towards the door, "Ian, how
did you know that his clothes were in the 3rd drawer?"

Ian shrugged, "He told me. I guess he really trusted me."

Byran gave Ian a strange glance but continued to open the door, he paused, "Um, Ian? Do
you know what to do when someone's sick?"

Ian eyes grew wide and he collapsed in giggles. Byran glared at Ian and cursed, "Fine I don't
need your help!"

"It's okay... Sorry, just it's sort of weird that you don't know how to take care of a sick
person..." Ian giggled

"Geez!"

"Sorry." Ian straightened up and put on a serious face,"You first make sure that Tala's dry, best
if you get him to take a bath, then you make sure he's warm. Of course, get him something warm to
eat in the morning. I always feel better after that." Ian giggled once more.

"Thanks," Byran followed Ian out of Tala's room, "You better get going."

"Yeah." Ian slowly walked towards his own room, leaving Byran to care of Tala.

Byran walked back into his room, "Hello Tala." Byran whispered to Tala's sleeping
form. "i'm back."

Byran walked into the washroom and started the bath when a sudden thought slammed into his head.

'SHIT!!! if I'm going to have to give Tala a bath, then I would have to strip him...' Byran's
face turned 5 shades of red (A/N is that possible?) and steam shot out of his ears at the
thought of Tala naked. 'but if i don't Tala'll just get more sicker... Then I might
have to go see Boris for help and he'll get in trouble...' Byran sighed in defeat.
'no wonder Ian was giggling...'

Byran slowly liftly Tala up and carried him to the washroom...
