"No....No, no, no ,no no!"
"Oh come on Rei. It really isn't that bad of an idea."
"Of course it isn't. It's an absolutely horrendous idea!"
Aya narrowed her eyes to slits and barred her teeth. The superlative idea Tala and her had come up with in the car was guaranteed to work. The fact that Kai's birthday was coming up was pure luck. The vision of Rei and Kai confessing their feelings for each other at an eloquent birthday dinner brought stars to her eyes.
"Come on Rei, stop being a pussy..."
Rei and Aya glared daggers into Tala, whom was sitting on the couch.
"...cat."
Aya sighed and fell down into a sitting position by Tala. She slouched slightly angry at how completely stubborn Rei was.
"You know Rei, it would be completely legitimate. Just simply saying that Aya and I have to work late would be a full-proof excuse to Kai, leaving you there to wish him a very 'happy' birthday." Tala winked as Aya giggled and Rei blushed furiously.
"Really Rei. I'm sure he will be delighted that I would be gone anyway. For some strange reason he absolutely abhors me!."
Aya pouted, folding her arms. Rei and Tala gave her curious glance before getting back to their conversation.
"Listen Rei, just try it and if he finds out, which he won't, just blame us. We'll take the heat."
Rei sighed also, then slid onto the couch in between Aya and Tala.
"I don't know. But I guess trying doesn't hurt."
The two opposite of him smiled evilly and then jumped on Rei crying for glee.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The spinning of the blade was the only thing that he heard as he probed his subconscious for answers about all of life's misfortunes. Either Rei and Aya were in love or they were both very good friends; both possibilities unnerved him greatly. He watched as his blade spinned wrathfully almost as if dancing like fire. It always caused Kai to calm down when he could target his anger into something else, mainly his beyblade. Dranzer was drawing spirals in the dirt as it spun.
Spirals. It was like everything was being hurled around in huge spirals in his life, particularly Rei. It was almost like he wanted to kill Aya every time he saw her with him. It wasn't just anger though; it was a deep pain aching in his heart.
He sighed when he noticed that the beyblade had fallen.
'I can't even keep that straight anymore. Here I am at work alone with nothing to do but blade.'
He didn't feel like going home and seeing the two of them together. It was just to much pain.
"Kai? What are you doing here so late?"
'Li. Strange that he would be here.'
Li was one of the few people Kai could tolerate. He was calm and lucid, like Rei, but had a more mature demeanor.
'Maybe....just maybe I could tell him. Maybe he can reassure me.'
"I don't feel like going home. And you?" Kai responded.
"The same I guess. I'm kind of sick of hearing Mariah complain about Aya."
Kai twitched at the name. He tried to cover it up but could not hide it from the quick cat eyes Li had.
"I see. That is why you have been so anxious lately. Aya really is not that bad of a person. A little eccentric, a little cheerful, and a little hyper. All in all, she is a lot like Tala, so you will surely get used to her."
Kai sighed. He wouldn't understand. He wanted him to though.
"No, Aya is fine. The feeling she gives me when she is around Rei is not." Kai slid down the wall into a sitting position. Li slid down by him.
"Oh. Yes, Rei and Aya were quite inseparable when they were children. I know you are quite fond and affectionate of him. So I guess you are just feeling threatened by her?"
Kai stared at the ground, a small blush staining his cheeks, as his hair fell in his face as he grunted in response. They sat there in companionable silence until Kai spoke up in a tentative voice.
"They...they don't love each other, do they?"
Kai heard a ripple of giggles erupting from the usually calm boy. Then the boy started to laugh harder and harder until he was on the ground, grasping his waist.
Kai pouted, something he only did in front of Rei.
"I don't find it that funny Li."
"Forgive me my friend, you caught me off guard with a question like that. But to answer you, of course they aren't. I remember that Mariah used to think the same thing. Aya and her would get into terrorizing fights. Besides, you should know, Rei is....*ahem*." Li's eyes went downcast.
Kai smiled.
"Thanks Li, that helped a lot. And you know what, I think I actually might want to go home now."
Li shook his head in a grace of understanding.
"Yeah, I better go too. I'm quite hungry."
"Oh? You should come over. You usually don't and I'm sure Tala, Rei, and Aya would like to visit with you since they don't that much at work. We have left over pizza from the last week."
Li laughed mirthlessly.
"Anything to stay away from the perils of home life at the White Tigers apartment."
