Shapes: Hi people! It's mesa the 'shifter!
Hiei: Well der. Really do you think they don't know you?
Shapes: Oh shut up you freaking demon!
Kai: Oh man! Not again. ::Runs from shape's room in fear::
Shapes: ::Watches Kai run:: Wow, he's got a nice butt. (
Hiei: Typical female! Always looking at the body!
Shapes: Well if you hang out with a person like you that's all that you can think of, because the mind is not normal.
Hiei: Shut up! My mind is okay!
Shapes: A matter of opinion.
REI'S POV well duh
I wake to the light sound of feet in my room, knowing it is only Kai I am about to roll over and go back to sleep, but my better half gets the best of me. I always do that! I have to always be the nice guy, can't let anything not get to me! So I roll over and sit up, tracking the boy's movements from the bathroom and back into the main room. I hold back a smile when I see the shocked look on his half-shadowed face.
" Sorry I woke you, Gomen." He says with no emotion evident in his voice and carefully gets into bed. Before he lies down I watch as he puts all the pillows down near his broken ribs, and then hear the hiss of pain as he rests his body on them.
" Kai, I'm sorry I went behind you back, I just wanted to know." I tell him and I see the slight nod of his head, and then the crimson eyes close. I sigh slightly and thinking the conversation over I'm about to turn and lay back down when Kai's voice pierces the silent darkness.
" You know, I have never known anyone like you Rei. Never had I figured you to be crafty enough to snag my medical chart and look at it." I blink in shock. Kai just gave me a sentence. No wait two! Wow record on the 'talking of Kai' list. I smile slightly
" Well you had me worried. I had to know and you weren't going to tell me." I say smiling. Kai opens his eyes and turns to look at me, the face remains impassive but the yes hold something dark and unsure.
" If you want to talk about it, they say I'm a good listener." I suggest and see the eyes harden and look away.
" No, there are things better not know about me." And with that he closes his eyes and leans further back into the pillows, signaling the conversation over. Fine I lay back down and am about to succumb to sleep when one last thought crossed my mind, how long will it take until you can tell me?
~~~~~~~~NEXT MORNING~~~~~~~
The sunlight is spilling over my bed my eyes and everything. Guh I hate the sun! Well shouldn't say that. wait never mind. I slowly open my eyes and groan at the bright flashes coming from the window. Another day, another dime another penny-less renny-less rhyme I say to myself and swing my legs over the bedside. Rubbing one knuckle against my eyes to clear them I yawn, waking up is always hard when you are a teenager. I rise to my feet and stretch, feeling muscles pop and vertebrae crack under the elongated move. I turn and am about to get my things when something catches my eye.
Kai, who is always the first awake and last to sleep, is sleeping soundly. His head propped against his light blue clothed shoulder and hair tousled from sleep. Eyes are closed and give no evidence of ever opening, his face is serious but innocent looking. In a predatory oh-look-I-can-be-sweet-and- innocent-until-I-rip-your-face-off way. I smile as the captain moans and shifts, a slight wince coming to his face, then resettle in a comfortable position.
" Well might as well get my shower in." I say to myself and gather my clothes, locking the door behind me I take my time preparing, knowing no one else is up to disturb me.
The hot water relaxes tense muscles and gives me time to think things through. For instance, how will Tyson act around Kai, now that he knows about his past? Or how is Kai going to act, will he be more distant? I have no clue and that is the conclusion I come to as I shut the water off. I have to wait and see, if Kai will be more open or more with drawn. Maybe now that I know about the hardships that he went through, I can possible see the reasoning in what he does. For instance, the way he eats little and wants to stay active all day. I know it's part of his training method and all, but I mean even when we are not training he is always doing SOMETHING be it just sitting there looking like he is doing nothing. I know he studies other bladers, surroundings and people, but why? Why be so cautious that he must take in every small detail?
I am so caught up in my thoughts that I fail to realize I am out in the bedroom and making my bed. By the time I do I hear Kai asking me something, I snap back to reality when a pillow hits me square in the face.
" Yeah. Huh what?" I ask stupidly and look around wondering where the pillow came from. My eyes fall on a struggling Kai, obviously stiff from sleeping, the poor leader can't get out of the bed.
" Kuso! Sorry Kai." I quickly go over to his bed and reach a hand down to help him, only to be granted by a growl.
" No, I don't need you help." He snaps and I quickly retrieve my hand before it is handed to me. I watch the leader push himself into a sitting position and then swing his legs over the side.
" If you didn't need my help, than why did you chuck the freaking pillow at me!" I cry and feel my anger rise when I see the blank look he gives me. Kai only shrugs his shoulders and gets his bag from the seat, and getting out his things.
" I didn't throw anything at you." He states firmly and rises from the place on the bed, quickly as an injured person can go he is in the bathroom and out of my line of sight before I can say anything back. Sighing I go back to my chores of tidying up the room and just to be nice to Kai, I make his bed too. I pick up my bag, and then go ver to Kai's to re-zip his duffel bag, when I catch a glimpse of a picture. Strange, I never knew Kai had any pictures. Then again, why would he share them with the others or me? I stare at it for a while, taking in the surroundings, people and the scene displayed on it.
A woman is standing above a six-year-old little kid, who is duck taped to the wall naked and from the looks bleeding from cuts and gashes. The woman is smiling wickedly holding what looks like a cattle prod, the little kid, who I take is Kai, is staring a the woman through bloody and swollen eyes, his small body chows every bone and scar. Flipping it over I find neat hand writing, Kai's obviously and I shudder at the words written there.
' People don't touch to help, only to hurt.' That is where Kai got it from, those people must have forced that into his head and that is the saying he lives by.
" What the hell are you doing?" I hear the cold voice of Kai ask from behind me, I jump and whirl around to face the other boy. Kai stands in front of me with a raised eyebrow.
" I. uh.. I" I stumble over my words and see the eyes look at the picture in my hands and then snap back to my face. I look of pure anger evident on his face.
" Did you look through my things?" He snarls and rips the picture from my hands, he then turns and puts it back into the bag it came from.
" No Kai, I didn't I was just re-zipping your bag when it caught my eye." I tell the enraged boy, who is now trying everything possible not to look at me.
" Well don't. Leave my things alone Rei. You are looking into things that you should not know." He says and turns to face me, making me jump at the quick movement. His eyes are a dark red now and slits of anger. I swallow and back away from the other boy before he can do anything he might regret.
" Kai, is that you in the picture?" I ask suddenly and feel like kicking myself for blurting that out. To my shock Kai laughed slightly and shook his head.
" You are very perceptive Rei, I will give you that." He says and moves to the door as if walking from the room, but I quickly speak up
" Wait, you didn't answer my question." I say and he turns slightly, a mischievous look in his eyes.
" No, I didn't. But yes that was me." He says absent-mindedly and turns the knob, preparing to leave.
" Wait what are they doing to you?" I ask and he closes his eyes, I see him take a shallow breath and then reopen the mirror like eyes.
" Making sure I don't cry." And that was it, he left with the door shutting softly behind him. I stand there stunned. Kai just had a conversation about his past with me, holy crap! I shake my head and laugh, cursing myself on the process. I am one stupid person, I'm playing with fire and I'm pushing my luck at not getting burned. Let's see how far I can push it.
