Sorry about the wait, well on with the fic.

It happened so fast that all I remember was bumping the ball, hearing a thud behind me and about a million gasps. I turned around and saw Kai laying on the floor, I dropped to my knees and gasped.

"Kai! Are you ok? I'm so sorry!" The words sprang out of my mouth as I cradled him in my arms.

Kai groaned and rubbed his sore forehead while slightly lifting himself.

"Ok, shows over, Kai's alive so can we continue playing?" Johnny asked impatiently.

"Johnny, be patient. Kai's still recovering." Enrique sighed at his ratter rude friend.

Johnny grunted and started tossing the volleyball in the air and catching it again.

"Way to go Ray, of all the people you choose to knock out your own team mate." Tala teased from the other side of the net.

"Leave him alone, it's not his fault Kai got hurt!" Johnny snapped.

"What, now Ray has someone to answer for him also." Tala teased.

I really appreciate what Johnny's doing for me but he's making me sound like a baby. I can handle Tala just fine. Although it does feel good to have someone who dislike's Tala as much as I do. Johnny's been acting real strange around me lately he wasn't like this before.enough thinking about Johnny and back to Kai.

"I'm so sorry Kai.I didn't mean too." I apologized helping him to his feet.

"It's ok Ray, I'm fine." Kai answered flashing me a reassuring smile.

"See, he's fine. Now can we continue?" Johnny asked breaking his and Tala's glaring contest.

"Alright, let's continue. It's our ball." Bryan said serving the ball over, not caring if the other team wasn't prepared.

The game carried on for another ten minutes but we had to stop because Enrique spotted some girls.

"Come on Ray, let's grab our selves a date." Enrique cheered linking elbows with me.

"Just because you want a date doesn't mean you have to drag Ray along with you." Johnny said while taking down the net.

"Don't listen to him." Enrique grunted. "No, Enrique.I don't want to." I said, stopping him from dragging me.

"Eh, suit yourself but don't come crying to me when you need a girlfriend."

"Thanks." I muttered while passing Johnny.

Johnny smiled and ran over to Oliver to help him take down the net.

"RAY!!!!" Tyson called.

"huh?" I looked up.no Tyson.looked down.no Tyson.looked around.AHA! There's Tyson, and he's in the water with Max and Kai. "Ya Tyson?"

"Come and swim with us, we even got Kai to come!"

"What a lie, I was in here before you asked!" Kai shot back.

"Ya, ya, so what do you say Ray?"

"Alright." I said pulling my shirt over my head and running into the water.

(Kai's POV)

I was sitting here, well floating here minding my own business when I hear Tyson mention my name, now what does he want with me.

I look towards his direction and yell, "What a lie, I was in here before you asked!"

Then Tyson said something about Ray, which caught my attention. I hear Ray say "Alright." And then he took of his shirt.

I had to force myself not to look, what would Ray think if he saw me looking at him? That I hope never to find out. I had to turn away any way's because I felt my cheeks burning up.

(Ray's POV)

"Stop splashing me Tyson have mercy!" Max pleaded defending himself with his arms.

"Not to worry Max, I'll save you!" Enrique announced swimming over.

"Hey? Aren't you supposed to be with the ladies?" I asked.

Enrique stopped strangling Tyson and sighed, "Today's just not my lucky day. Turns out they already have boyfriends, they're just in another country right now."

I wanted to say something but I didn't I just couldn't break Enrique's heart. I don't think that Enrique knew that the girls were actually trying to tell him they weren't interested, but they just wanted to put him down softly.

The day went on with Kai in one end of the water in his own little world, Tyson still trying to splash Max, me and Enrique trying to stop him, Johnny and Tala arguing, Oliver and Bryan talking and Kenny typing away at his laptop.

(Kai's POV)

A cool breeze swept across Ray's body, causing him to shiver slightly. As usual Ray didn't let little things stop him from having fun as he continued to pull Tyson away from Max.

My attention quickly shifted from Ray to a loud chatter at the other end of the beach. Tala and Johnny. They've been yelling at each other ever since the little incident at volleyball. Ray was really worried.who could blame him? No one wants to see a player go down, especially if you're the one who caused it. Am I mad at Ray, of course not! Mistakes happen.Tyson for one has a fair share of mistakes.

Look at everyone, they're all having fun and I'm stuck here being my usual grumpy self. Well I can't help it if I'm like this. I guess I'm afraid of losing control, letting my emotions run wild. I always kept my feelings to myself because I never knew how to show it.

Ray's just great, he shows me that I can trust him and that everything I tell him is between us. He showed me that he cares for me and always will no matter what. Ray's the only person who I can let the icy walls I formed around me over the years shatter and break into millions of pieces, not for a moment thinking twice about it.

Lately when I'm around Ray it's different somehow.it's as if I,

"HEY EARTH TO KAI, WE'RE LEAVING NOW!!!" I hear Tyson call, interrupting my thoughts.

Rays POV ray talking

*seems like you got a major problem on your hands*

*You know it may help if you tell someone, they may be able to give you valuable advice*

*Why not try talking to Max*

*Ya, remember Max has been through this before. And look, now he has a boyfriend.*

*True, true. But Max is way easier to talk to, and he'll actually give you advice you need.*

I broke of my connection with Drigger and walked out of my room in search of Max.

Approaching the living room I smiled to myself. Max and Tyson were on the two-seater couch leaning on each other with a bowl of popcorn set in between them, they look.so happy together.

"Max."

"Ya Ray?" Max looked up and gave me a worried look after reading my facial expression.

"I need to talk to you.alone." I said shifting my eyes over to Tyson.

Max nodded and got up.

As I walked out of the room I could have sworn someone was watching me, but now's not the time to think about it.

Leading Max into the hallway I let out a heavy sigh as I prepared how I was going say what I was about to say.

"What is it Ray." Max asked.

I really don't know how to say it, it's not everyday a guy falls in love with Kai. I've got the perfect solution, instead of saying it slowly I'll just say it.

"Max I like-"

"Kai" Max finished. "Ya I found out long time ago.

There we go another chapter finished. From now on I guess you people have figured out that I'm not going to post new chapters every week, it's going to take a lot longer, but please have patience with me. Like I have to have patience with my homework. Thank you for your understanding.
