I'm so sorry that it took longer to update the last chapter, the day I went to update was down. Plus, I came back the next day but it was still down.
I'm also very sorry for the big spaces between all the phrases. I had to save my file under html and that's what happened. I wanted to save it like I regularly do but this time all the '' in the text came out very weird and it was too confusing. Especially when I wanted to write it's. There were 2 letters popping up between the t and the s. And the last thing was, my lines didn't show up since I switched from a scene in town then back at the chalet.
Though, I hope you all enjoyed it even with all the difficulties I've been having. And don't worry, this chapter will greatly make up for it. I promise that!
Disclaimer: I own squat!! Actually I don't even own that…
Chapter 7 – Surprise
''What do you mean there isn't a bus until 6:15!'' Tyson almost yelled at the lady sitting behind the counter.
''I'm sorry but the drivers are on their supper hour'' The redhead said, backing away from the shouting teen.
''Great! Now we have 2 hours to wait before we can leave and there's nothing to do'' Max sighed as he flopped down into one of the waiting chairs.
''There's no use in staying in here, maybe we should go out for a while?''
''Great idea Chief!'' Tyson strolled over from the counter and grabbed Max's arm.
''Let's go'' They ran out together. Well Tyson ran out, Max was dragged out.
''Hey wait for me!'' Kenny yelled before rushing out.

From half way up the stairs, Kai heard a loud thud from inside one of the rooms. Obviously, the one he shared with Ray. Immediately, he flew up the remaining steps and shoved open the door at the end of the hall.
Walking in, he first noticed Ray was not in his bed. Then, he realized the washroom door was wide open and not closed like he had left it.
At first, he hesitated to walk into the bathroom so he decided to knock on the wall.
''Ray'' He said, after knocking.
''Kai''
The boy's voice did not sound right to Kai's ears.
''Are you ok?''
''No''
Kai heard Ray spit before he spoke again.
''Come here''
So he did. He entered slowly and found Ray sitting on the edge of the bathtub looking down at the white tiles.
''I feel sick''
''Ray, I'm going to call a doctor, ok?'' Kai crouched down in front of him as Ray looked up.
''No'' Ray grinned, running a hand threw his hair '' I don't need their help''
The captain could not believe his own eyes. Ray was obviously worst off than before and admitted that he was sick; yet, he smiled as if nothing was wrong.
''You need medical attention''
''But I want your attention''
Kai tried hard not to blush as Ray closed his eyes for a short while and breathed in deep.
''Doctors can help you and don't argue with me about that''
''Don't call'' Ray said as he did the unthinkable by wrapping his arms around Kai's neck. ''Please'' he whispered into the other's neck.
Suddenly tensing up, the slate-haired boy found himself in an awkward yet comfortable position. As soon as Ray began to rub his back, he felt as if he were melting and his knees were about to give out. They did, he cursed them, for he fell back.
Then out of nowhere, Kai could feel Ray laugh on his shoulder.
''What's so funny?'' Kai asked as Ray pulled away from his body.
''I think I'm delirious, like on Kenny's list'' He leaned his forehead against Kai's.
The elder did not respond as he found himself drowning in the Chinese boy's amber eyes.
''But I think I-'' Ray started as he closed his eyes and placed a palm on Kai's milky cheek.
''I…'' Their lips brushed gently together.
Kai's heart began to pound rapidly and his breathing became deep and almost stopped.
Ray never finished his sentence and pressed his lips against Kai's in a simple kiss. Pulling away slightly for air, each looked into the other's slowly opening eyes. Once again totally uncalled for, before Kai could even think of reacting to their first kiss, Ray kissed the boy once more for much longer.
''Love you'' Ray said in a fast breath.
Trying to speak, though unsuccessful Kai remained there like a statue from shock.
''I think I'm going to pass out now'' Ray informed as he began to slowly tilt to one side.
Finally, in motion, he reacted only because of his instincts – his mind was elsewhere; Kai stood up and caught the falling teen. As Ray leaned up against the muscular chest, Kai swooped him up again and walked out of the white room.
Kai posed him on the bed and walked out of their room still very stunned.
''He kissed me'' His mind screamed over and over.
Grabbing Dranzer from his pocket, the captain launched his blade onto the wooden floor. He took as seat on the last step and summoned his bit beast from inside.
A blinding fiery red light emerged from the blue blade and the phoenix spirit showed herself in all of her true beauty.
Kai was smiling genuinely at the firebird as she spread her wings to make her presence more vibrant.
''He kissed me'' The blader brought his fingers to his lips.
The bit beast cocked her head to one side, confused.
''Ray'' He could still feel the warmth on his cheek from the boy's palm.
Dranzer squawked as flapped her wing as if she understood her master before returning to her sanctuary.
The blade spun to her master's foot then stopped its rotation. Kai picked up the blade and took a final look at the emblem representing the bird.
''He said he loved me'' Kai whispered and the picture of Dranzer flickered red.
Kai knew he shouldn't be getting his hopes up but everything felt perfect at that moment.
Resting his head against a stair further up he sighed rather loudly.
''I wish I could believe what you said''
''I wish you really mean it''
Now whether the phoenix blader liked it or not, he had to speak with Ray. Never knowing the truth would drive him insane. He would always be haunted by 'what if'.

''There's the bus'' The blonde pointed to the obvious upcoming bus, before it halted and they jumped up.
''Finally'' Tyson sighed and sprung to his feet from the bench. ''It felt like we had been waiting forever''
''15 minutes to be exact'' Kenny looked down at his watch.
'' That's still long enough'' The blunette approached the stopped bus. ''You sure this will bring us back?''
''Yes. When we see the chalet, we ask for a stop. It's that simple''
''So be on the look out'' Max stepped on the bus first to find it completely empty. ''Oh well, we get to sit wherever we want''
