Chapter 5*~~ Promises*~~
The silence between Kai and Kita was getting to the rest of the Blade Breakers by the next morning. They were both nice to the rest but an icy chill went through the room when they looked at each other. Ray and Kenny decided to keep in their room most of the day to avoid those moments. Tyson and Max got sick of it by lunch and went on a LONG walk.
Kita and Kai sat alone in the sitting area of their room. "K-kita?"
"Yes Kai," she asked coolly.
"W-we need to talk," he said and moved resolutely from the chair across the room from her to the couch, right next to the pretty eleven-year- old.
"You're right we do," Kita's voice was softer and sweeter. More like the one she used when speaking to the others. The door opened suddenly and the two launched apart and whirled around.
"You scared the crap out of us!" Kai yelled at Tyson and Max.
"Geeze, calm down. We're sorry!" Tyson aid falling onto the couch. Kita sank back down and Kai walked back to his chair.
"What were we interrupting?" asked Max slyly to the teenage boy.
"Shut it Max," Kita snapped.
"He's sorry," Kenny said walking in from his room. Ray opened the door to the bedroom of that suite and collapsed on the couch next to Kita.
"What are we doing for a meal?" he asked.
"Well, I was thinking a gourmet restaurant would be overdone for our second night here," said Mr. Dickinson from the doorway. "Any ideas?"
"I have one!" Kita said.
"Yes," he asked curiously.
"Well, we could make tons of junk food snacks and eat in our pajamas while watching a scary movie marathon."
"O-or n-n-not!" Kenny said backing up.
"Or a non-scary movie marathon," Kita suggested quickly. "Sorry chief. I didn't realize you were afraid to watch scary movies!"
"I thought YOU were afraid to watch scary movies," Kai said looking confused.
Kita's voice changed slightly. "You wouldn't know Kai. I'm not that crying school girl anymore." There was an uncomfortable silence.
"Well it's settled then!" Tyson said breaking up the silence.
"I suggested we all take baths before we eat! It's" Ray consulted his watch. "five to seven." The all nodded and walked down to the private shower rooms offered on the forty-eighth floor. Kita and Kai were done before the rest and walked back to their room to change out of their clothes in pajamas.
Kita sat down on her bed and brushed her beautiful silver hair before it dried. "Want to talk now?" asked Kai.
"Sure" she replied softly.
"I've missed you Kita. How have you been?"
"With an ass hole of a father."
"Kita! I love you! I always have! I-I just." Kai paused. "You are the one person I've ever cared about and the only one I thought ever really cared about me."
"I do care Kai, but when they tore us apart you never came back. You made a promise to me before you got in that car. You said "when I can, I'll come back and get you. I promise never to forget you Kita." But you never kept that promise Kai."
"I did what I thought was best!" Kai said as they grabbed clothes from their suitcases. He pulled off his jeans and shirt and put on a pair of boxers. His white shirt lay on his bed. Kita pulled out white pajamas covered in cherry blossoms. She took off her clothes. (don't get disgusting thoughts plz)
Tears were burning in her eyes. "Leaving me with him was not what was best! I hate him! He's a jerk and he hates me!"
"Kita calm down!" Kai said and he grabbed her in his arms and stroked her hair.
"Kai," she pulled back and picked up her shirt. "We're going to have to tell them the truth about our pasts.
"Why?"
"He'll be looking for me Kai. My father never rests. He knows what a good blader I am and uses me for that talent."
"How did you even get messed up in beyblades?"
"It was the day after they took us apart. Look we can talk about that after we talk about the important stuff. We can pretend everything is fine Kai but it won't be unless we talk about what happened." Kita 's blankets were in a mound next to her, blocking her bottom half. Just as she had pulled her shirt down over her chest the door opened and the rest of the BB walked in. They froze when they saw Kita pull her hair out from under the shirt and Kai without one on.
Then they stared as Kita stood up and pulled on her pants. "Are we interrupting something?" asked Tyson. Kita rolled her eyes and Kai scowled and looked outraged.
"Sure Tyson," Kita said as she walked over. "We were talking so in a way you were." She smiled at Ray as she passed. Ray felt as though he had been punched quite hardly in the gut by Kai. He didn't know why he cared about what they had seen. According to Kita they were just talking, so why shouldn't he believe her? And why did he feel this way?
They all finished changing and were making popcorn and other snacks when Kenny dragged up the subject of the two changing in front of each other. "Didn't the two of you care about changing in the same room?"
"Not really," Kita said sitting down and looking at Dizzi's open screen.
"Er, why not?" asked Max sitting next to her.
"I am curious myself," Tyson said leaning on the counter across from Kita.
"Maybe you shouldn't be," Kai snapped, very uncomfortable.
"Well, our... pasts. make it perfectly fine and comfortable," Kita said giving Kai a look.
"Okay.." Kenny said looking between them. Ray was silent and keeping busy by making sweets.
"Do we have any movies?" asked Ray twenty minutes later, suddenly realizing they didn't bring any.
"There are some down by the TV, but they're all American," Kenny said.
"How are we supposed to know which ones are good?" asked Max and Tyson together.
"Do you have any idea Kita?" asked Ray.
"Well." The Bladebreakers had a great time watching movies and laughing and talking. Kai and Kita were longing for a time to talk about their pasts.
Dizzi was still on and she had pictures of Kita and Kai. She was running them through searches trying to find out what they were hiding.
Just as they were falling asleep in their bed, Kai sat bolt upright. "Kita?"
"Kai?" she mumbled.
"I'm going to promise you something." Ray was awake and listening closely.
"What is that?"
"I'm going to promise never to let them split us apart again. I shouldn't have let them the first time. And I shouldn't have counted on Melanie to help us! I'll never loose you again Kita." The two fell asleep but Ray felt sick.
He slipped out of the room and was passing Dizzi when something on her screen caught his eye. Kai and Kita's pictures were up and so was overlapped information. Ray began to read when Dizzi shut off. He smiled, suddenly feeling better.
Understanding was flooding through him. Ray decided that he needed to figure out more on Kai's and Kita's pasts before he confronted them about their sort-of-secret. Ray slipped back into bed and fell into a dreamless and comforting sleep.
