Hi Everyone! I'm back! You know what that means... New Chapter Time! Before I begin I gotta clear up a few things. Well first off, the reason I haven't updated lately is because my Internet wasn't working for a full week! I was going crazy, plus I had a serious case of writers block on top of that. (And I still do) Believe it or not, I was about to abandon this entire fic! But, then I got a couple more reviews from fans begging me to continue, so because of ya'll, I did! Thanks so much to those of you who reviewed! I've dedicated this chapter to you guys!

Now, on with the fic! ^_~

Disclaimer: I don't own beyblade or any of its characters. Quit rubbing it in! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chapter 3: Feelings! Nothing more than feelings! OR A day at the mall confirmed!

Kai jumped almost immediately, when he felt someone place their hand on his shoulder. He spun around quickly to come face to face with Rei! He observed Rei, noting the fact that Rei's raven-hair was out of its usual wrappings, and was currently flowing down his back. He also noticed that Rei's hair was wet, and was making the back of his white t-shirt damp, and almost transparent.

The morning air was quite chilly, and Kai really didn't think that Rei should have been outside in just a wet t-shirt and pants. Even Kai was dressed for the weather. He was wearing his black leather jacket.

"H-hey K-Kai," began Rei, hesitantly breaking the silence. "Can I...ask you something?"

"Sure, I guess," was Kai's uninterested sounding answer, but deep down he wondered what Rei wanted from him.

"Uh...well, I wanted to ask you something," began Rei, nervously. "We've been training a lot lately, and I can't remember the last time we all just...you know hung out. Anyways, the guys and I were all wondering if we could... take the day off," Rei suggested, but his suggestion sounding more lie a question. Kai's crimson eyes pierced through Rei's amber ones, and there was a brief pause.

"Whatever," came Kai's simple answer, as he turned his back on Rei, and looked down at his beyblade, which was currently spinning on the ground.

Rei's mouth dropped slightly, "a-are you serious?" he had to ask.

Kai turned around to face Rei, amused by his shocked expression. "Sure, I don't see why not. After all, there's still a couple of weeks before our next tournament."

"Thanks," was all Rei could say, he felt his face heat up. "I-I'd better get going," Rei said quickly, when he realized he was blushing. "See ya later!" he called, before running back to the hotel.

"Yeah, see ya," Kai answered quietly, minutes after Rei left. (What's wrong with me anyway?) Kai wondered to himself. (Lately, I've been acting really weird around Rei. Do I *like* him or something? No way!) Kai told himself, shaking that thought out of his head. (Even if I did like Rei, who's to say that he liked me? Who's to say that he's even into guys anyway?) With that decided Kai continued his training. * * * When Rei reached the hotel, he decided to head straight for the Breakfast café, figuring that was where Tyson and Max would be. He stepped into the warm atmosphere of the café, and almost immediately spotted his friends at a table across the room.

"Over here Rei!" Max called to him. The raven-haired boy gratefully joined his friends at the table. Max and Kenny both greeted him, but Tyson hadn't even noticed Rei's presence yet, he was much too busy stuffing his face with food.

Max tapped Tyson on the shoulder, causing him to finally look up from his plate. "What do you want Max? This had better be important," he said through a mouth full of bacon. (SS: Mmmmm bacon. *Droolz*) "Rei's back!" Max informed him.

Tyson swallowed. "Oh! Hi Rei! What did Kai say?" Tyson inquired eagerly.

"Well," began Rei, before Tyson interrupted him.

"Mr. Crabby better have agreed with my idea, cause if he didn't then I'll break his..."

"Tyson!" Rei cut him off, angrily. "Anyway, I talked to Kai and he said it was okay with him."

Tyson, Max both stared at Rei in shock, even Kenny looked up from his laptop.

"He...actually agreed?" Max gasped, in utter shock. Rei nodded and smiled, letting his fangs show a bit.

"Well," said Rei. "Since we got the whole day off what do you guys wanna do? I hope you guys didn't plan on spending the rest of the day here stuffing your faces."

"Now that sounds like a day off to me," Tyson laughed. "But I got a better idea, how about we...

"Yeah," everyone said leaning in closer to Tyson.

"How about we...GO TO THE MALL!"

"Sounds good to me!" said Max, smiling.

"Yeah!" Kenny agreed. "Besides we could buy some parts for our beyblades."

Rei nodded in agreement. (And I'll have an excuse to spend time with Kai) Rei thought to himself with a smile.

"So it's settled then!" said Tyson throwing his hands in the air. "We're going to the mall!!!"

Please don't kill me! I know how crumby this chapter probably is. But as I said before I have a serious case of writers block. : ( I promise I will make up for this.

WAIT! I almost forgot to tell you guys something very important! Okay, here goes:

You know how this fic was suppose to be about the Bladebreakers going to the mall? Yeah, well I just got this great idea, but the only problem is that it would totally change the original plan of the fic. But the Demolition boys and other teams would be in it! Maybe even the evil Boris, and Voltaire too! Hehe!

But, it's completely up to you guys. Do you want me to stick to the original plot of the story, or do you want me to give this story a really good twist?

Review and tell me okay? How this fic turns out is totally up to you! ...Well, maybe not totally, just mostly. Well, maybe just partly...no, partly is too much, maybe it's just a little is up to you. Don't mind me, just R/R please!
