Something by Yaoi Girl

Around 11 o'clock that night, Kai came back from his walk and was now sitting on the couch in his suite.

He had been disappointed when he came back and found a note lying on the bed from Rei, which simply said: I'm staying in Kenny's room.

'I'm sorry, Rei. But this is the way it's gotta be from now on.'

Someone knocked on his door; he ignored it. Then it came again. Sighing, he got up from his seat and walked to the door, opening it to find a slightly ruffled Max.

"Do you have any idea of how much you hurt him?!" he demanded, his icy blue eyes hard and angry.

"Why should you care. This is between me and him, not you. Now if you'll excuse me..." he said as he turned his back to the blonde.

"And what's with the attitude change all of a sudden? You went from the Kai we know, maybe a little weaker and kinder, back to the monster we all hated. Why?"

"It's better for him this way."

"You're such a liar. He told us what you said. About how you fear for him and want to protect him and then could care less when you told him about that dream!" he nearly shouted, his tone turning soft, as did his eyes with tears threatening to spill as he went on, "Don't you realize how much you mean to him? He's willing to endure anything, even death, to be with you. But you're just afraid of being hurt in the end, of being alone again. Rei would fight his hardest to stay alive for you, to show you how strong his can be and how strong his love is for you. If you can't see that in his eyes, then you should stay away from him before you really do hurt him." He then turned and walked out of the room, shutting the door behind him.

Kai collapsed onto the couch a moment later, thoughts flying through his head so fast that it gave him a slight headache.

'I know what he feels for me. I don't want to stay away from him or hurt him, but when I have these dreams, they always come true. There's no way he can fight to live if he's shot straight in the heart. Why did I have to join a team with such great people when I'm always such an ass? Why do I always have to push people away? Rei...I'm sorry.'

"Come on, Rei. You need to get some more sleep. You only slept a couple hours on the bus and we have practice tomorrow morning, bright and early," Kenny said, pleading with the boy who sat on the end of his bed with tears still streaming down his face.

He had to admit that he was tired, but he just couldn't figure Kai out anymore and his brain wouldn't let the image of the boy out of his mind long enough for him to sleep.

"Gah...Fine. But I don't want to hear you complain when Kai comes in here to wake you up in the morning because you fell asleep late," Kenny said with a huff as he rolled onto his side, pulling the cover up to his chin before he fell asleep.

'He doesn't care about me anyway, so why should I care what he says? I don't care if he's our captain or not. I'll go home. At least then I wouldn't have to put up with these mood swings he's been having.' He sighed as he shifted slightly. 'Even if I went home, I still wouldn't be happy because he's here and I'm hiding.'

"We're not having practice today," the crimson-eyed bluenette said coldly after everyone, with the exception of Rei, arrived at his suite the next morning.

"That's a first," Tyson said, somewhat surprised.

"If you want to practice, go ahead. But I've got some things I need to take care of today. So enjoy freedom while you can." Kai then walked towards the door, turning to Kenny. "I need your key."

"Why? So you can go in and hurt Rei some more?" Max asked as he stood up, fists balled up at his sides until Tyson gently pulled him back down to the couch.

"No."

"What did you say?" the blonde asked in disbelief.

"I said no, I'm going to hurt him anymore. I thought about what you said last night, now I'm going to see if I can make it up to him. He's been through a lot because of me and he has yet to show any weakness."

Kenny handed him the spare key.

"If we're back late, don't worry."

"Where are you taking him?" Tyson asked, curious.

"On a date," and with that, he walked out of the room, ignoring the three dropped jaws in his room.

"Well, I'm taking a nap!" Kenny announced as he headed for the spare bedroom of the suite. "Seeing as how I can't go to my room right now, I'll sleep in here."

"Night, Chief!" Tyson called and waved over the couch as the blonde next to him sat on his knees and looked over the couch.

"Does this mean we can have time to enjoy ourselves?" Max asked in a not-so-innocent tone as he slid onto Tyson's lap.

"What are you doing, Maxie?" the bluenette asked as he pushed his back as far into the couch as he could, unsure of what Max was up to.

"Enjoying myself," he replied sweetly as he lowered his face towards the bright-red Tyson's until their noses touched. "I heard what you said in your sleep last night about me."

"What did I say?" he asked as he tried to back up further, but could, nor could he bring himself to move in any way, other than blink and breath.

The blonde backed away slightly. "You said I was gorgeous, sweet, had nice eyes and soft hair, and that I was also a great kisser,' he said, his lips now nearly brushing over Tyson's.

After few moments of them simply staring deeply into each other's eyes, Tyson whispered, "Why did you stop?"

"I think I'd embarass you too much if I told you everything you sa...!"

That wasn't was Tyson was referring to, however, but showed Max what he wanted him to continue by grabbing the boy's shirt collar and pulling him towards himself, their lips meeting in a kiss so intimate that they didn't hear Kai come back in, as the boy had forgotten his wallet on the entertainment center.

"Go to your room if you're going to be doing that."

The kissing pair's kiss ended abruptly as they craned their necks to look at the bluenette with wide eyes.

"I don't want to come back and think about what you've done to that poor couch, so go to your room and abuse the furniture all you like," he said as he left, a smirk gracing his lips as soon as the door was shut. He could see their blushes and Tyson's mouth running about him now.
