-Thoughts-
Chapter 10 – I Love You (Part 2)
"Looks like you guys were successful in making Sam stay."
"Actually she's here because her train was cancelled." Max explained.
"Really?" Ray said trying to hide a smile "How long are you here for Sam?" he asked.
But Sam didn't answer or even move from her spot it was like she had been turned into a statue.
"Until they can fix the tracks." Tyson said answering for her.
"Is she okay?" Ray asked Tyson and Max quietly.
Max shook his head.
"She's been like that ever since she walked in." Tyson explained.
"Hmmm." Ray said thinking he knew what the problem might be.
"Did you come here for a reason Ray?" Sam suddenly asked.
"Hm? Oh yea the Chief wants to see all of us."
"What for?" Tyson asked.
"Dunno he wouldn't say." Ray answered.
"We'd better be going. You going to be okay Sam?" Max asked.
"I'll be fine."
"You're right Ray, Kai and Sam really are alike." Tyson said walking out the door.
Sam turned round at Tyson's comment.
"What did you say Tyson?"
But he was already gone, She sighed. And sat on her bed, it was a very big coincidence that the train was cancelled and that her room was virtually next door to theirs. She couldn't help but think it was all planned some how. She knew she was lying to herself and to Tyson and Max when she had said she had to go, she didn't have to go anywhere. They could always find someone else and besides there was no one waiting for her at home, no one even cared she was gone! But she just couldn't shake the feeling that everything had been planned somehow, the train and the room. She sighed again it was getting dark so she couldn't go out and let Moonstar have a some exercise, or could she? An idea suddenly struck her and she left her room heading towards the roof.
Kai had just closed the door to their room he couldn't stay there any more Kenny was driving him crazy with his 'pre-tournament speech'. Just as he looked down the corridor he thought he saw…
"Sam? It can't be."
He followed the person up to the roof all the while thinking -it can't be her, can it? But I thought she left? Could I of been wrong in thinking that she didn't feel anything for me?- that last thought sparked his hope and he could feel his heart slowly coming back to life.
On the roof of the hotel –
There was a gentle breeze up here, Sam let the wind blow through her hair before looking round. It wasn't perfect but it would do, she launched Moonstar giving her the exercise she so badly needed. Then put on her earphones and turning on her Walkman that she had brought with her, it was already half way through a song:
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself.
-Great. Out of all the songs it could have started from it had to choose that one!- she thought.
Suddenly someone put a hand on her shoulder making her jump, she turned round instantly.
"K…Kai." Extremely surprised to see him.
She took her earphones off but left her Walkman still playing.
"I was hoping it would be you," he said.
"Huh? Hoping?" still in a state of shock.
"I wanna tell you something."
Sam then turned her back on Kai and went over to where Moonstar was then picked her up.
"Oh? And uh… what would that be?" she asked a little nervously. Although she had a pretty good idea of what it might be.
"I…I wanna say that I… I…" Kai said stammering.
Sam walked towards the roofs edge and looked out at the night lit town, holding Moonstar firmly in her hand.
"You don't have to tell me anything Kai. I know." She says as the wind blew at her face.
"Huh? You know?"
"Yes. It's my fault you ended up in hospital and I'm sorry. Sorry I ever came here." now looking at Moonstar.
'I'm sorry' those words repeating in his mind. That's what she meant back at the hospital. She didn't mean that she didn't have any feelings for him she meant she was sorry for putting him in hospital. He felt like jumping for joy! But wait did that mean she blamed herself for what happened to him?
"It wasn't your fault Sam." He said walking towards her.
"Yes it was. If it wasn't for me turning what you said into an argument then you wouldn't of got hurt in the first place."
Kai stood beside Sam and said
"Sam look at me."
"No." looking back at the night lit town.
"Look at me." He repeated a little more forcefully.
Sam shook her head, Kai grabbed her arm and turned her so she was facing him but she turned her head away. Kai smiled and gently turned her head.
"I don't regret saving you," he said while looking into her eyes.
"But how…" Sam was about to say when Kai kissed her.
When he broke the kiss he said
"That's how."
Sam then smiled.
"So... uh... what do I have to do to get another one?" she asked cheekily.
Kai gave a little laugh.
"All you have to do is ask."
"Then may I please have another one?"
"That depends." Kai teased.
"Oh?"
"On whether or not you'll kiss me back."
"Well kiss me again and you'll find out." She answered.
At that moment Sam awoke in her hotel room.
-What a strange dream.- she thought -it's even stranger than the dreams I was having when I was at the Abbey. Could it be that my old feelings for Kai are resurfacing?-
"I…guess there's only one way to find out." She said quietly.
In the Bladebreakers hotel room –
Early next morning Kai found a note address to him under the door. He picked it up and read it:
'Kai,
Please come to room 501 at 10am.'
The name had been scribble out but Kai could just make it out. It said 'Sam'.
-But I thought she left?- he thought -room 501 that's across the hall. Tyson and his practical jokes! I'll get him for this!-
He stormed off to Tyson and Max's room slamming the door open making poor Max jump.
"Kai." Max said with his hand over his heart as if trying slow it down. "Do you have to do that?" still trying to calm himself down from the shock of the door slamming open.
"Do you know anything about this Max?" Kai asked walking over to him and showing him the note.
"Not me Kai." Max answered after reading it.
"Tyson." Kai said turning to the other boy who was still sleeping.
"I don't think it would have been Tyson. You know him when he falls asleep not even a earthquake can wake him up." Max said.
There was only one other person left who could of done it. After taking the note back from Max and ignoring his 'hey watch it Kai.' comment he left their room heading towards the room he shared with Ray. As he entered he saw Ray was just getting up.
"Morning Kai." Ray said.
"I suppose you thought it was funny." Kai said walking towards him.
"Huh? Though what was funny?" he asked confused.
Kai gave the note to Ray.
"Well it wasn't. And I'd appreciate it if you'd stay outta my business Ray." His anger clear in his voice.
"But Kai, I didn't write this." Ray said he wasn't going to be blamed for something he didn't do.
"But…if you didn't… then who did?" Kai asked all anger suddenly gone.
"As the saying goes 'when you've gone through the possible whatever remains no matter how impossible is possible'." (A/N I can't quite remember how that saying goes sorry)
"Are you saying that Sam's still here?" Kai said a tad of excitement seeping through into his voice.
Ray was about answer when a voice said
"Hey Ray, could you help me in waking Tyson up?"
"Sure Max I'll be there in a minute."
Kai looked at the clock it was only eight thirty, he had an hour and a half before he would know. But why would they or she need until ten o'clock? He sighed and decided to get a little air before having breakfast. As he pasted Max and Tyson's room he heard Ray ask, "Why didn't you let me say what I was going to say?"
"She asked us not to tell anyone she was still here." Max replied.
"You don't think she still blames herself do you?" Ray asked.
Kai didn't hear Max's reply as he had already moved on, if they were right and she was still here why didn't she want anyone to know?
At the train station –
-Hn I knew it was a little too convenient that the train got cancelled.- Sam thought.
She decided to come down to see if there really was something wrong with the train or whether it was all just a lie to keep her here. And so far had found that the train had come and gone as usual, and that there wasn't anything really wrong with tracks. Although there would be some works done on them tomorrow for the next couple of weeks.
She looked at the timetable to see when the next train would arrive. It was at ten then she remembered that she said she would meet Kai at ten so that was out of the question, she looked at time the next one would be, it wouldn't arrive until twelve the next day but the works started before then so it wouldn't come at all.
She was now faced with a problem. She had chance to go home now and not meet up with Kai as she had planned, or she could meet with him and not go back.
-Great, I have a choice between home or Kai!- She sighed - no one wants me at home so there's no point going back there. But Kai doesn't want me here either. What a choice! Either way I look at it I'm where I'm not wanted.-
'It's her choice if she wants to leave.' Kai's words going through her mind.
She sighed once again and started to walk out of the station it was now nine thirty, she had just enough time to go back and get her stuff if she was to leave. As she walked back to the hotel wondering what to do she saw Kai sitting on a bench and suddenly part of a song came into in mind.
But what you must understand
You can't let the chance
To love him pass you by
She smiled she now knew what to do and hurried back to the hotel.
Back at the hotel –
It had just turned ten and Kai was standing outside room 501 wondering if it really was Sam that sent the note. It had bothered him all morning and now he was going to find out, he knocked on the door but there was no answer. He knocked again but still there was no answer, he tried the door and it opened. He didn't like the look of this but he just had to know 'She asked us not to tell anyone she was still here.' Max's voice repeated in his head. He cautiously looked into the room and was surprised to hear singing.
I'm scared
So afraid to show I care
Will he think me weak
If I tremble when I speak
Oooh – what if
There's another he's thinking of
Maybe he's in love
I'd feel like a fool
Life can be so cruel
I don't know what to do
I've been there
With my heart out in my hand
But what you must understand
You can't let the chance
To love him pass you by
Should I
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself.
Kai walked in to see Sam sitting on her bed looking out the window. She obviously hadn't heard him come in as she was listening to her Walkman.
Touch him
With gentleness you feel inside
Your love can't be denied
The truth will set you free
You'll have what's meant to be
All in time you'll see
I love him
Of that much I can be sure
I don't think I could endure
If I let him walk away
When I have so much to say
I'll
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself.
Kai was amazed at the song she was singing, could it be that she singing about him?
Love is light that surely glows
In the hearts of those who know
It's a steady flame that grows
Feed the fire with all passion you
can show
Tonight love will assume its place
This memory time cannot replace
Blind faith will lead love where it has
to go
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself.
Never let him go
Sam took off her earphones ignoring the next song but it could still be heard:
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That's how I know you go on
She turned round to look at the clock and jumped surprised to see Kai behind her.
"Don't do that!" she said smiling, "Uh… how long have you been there anyway."
Looking at the clock near him it said five past ten.
"Long enough I guess. Well aren't you going to say anything?"
Kai just stared at her.
"I guess not." She turned back round "You can sit down you know." She said looking at him through the reflection in the window.
Kai didn't move or say anything but just kept staring at her.
Sam smiled.
"If you're not going to say anything I guess I'll just get back to my singing." Starting to put her earphones back in.
You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
She suddenly jumped again when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned round slowly to see Kai smiling.
"I'm glad you'd stayed." He finally said.
She took out her 'phones and replied.
"I was beginning to think you'd forgotten how to speak."
"I was just surprised that's all."
"You? Surprised? Now that's unusual." She joked.
"Hey." Kai said defensibly.
They both laughed.
"I'm glad I stayed too." She then turned back to the window "Although I am sorry about the trouble I've caused."
"That wasn't your fault."
"Yes it…" she stopped this conversation was going in the same direction as her dream.
"Sam you okay?" Kai asked sitting next to her.
"Hm? Oh yea I'm okay." Coming out of her thoughts.
She turned to look at the clock again it had just turned half eleven.
"Had breakfast yet?" she asked, trying to change the direction of the conversation.
Kai shook his head.
"Good then we can have it together." She said getting up but nearly strangling herself in the process. She had forgotten all about her Walkman.
Kai shook his head to dislodge the thought that just appeared in his mind and helped her untangle herself from the earphones.
"Actually I'm not hungry." He said.
"Well that's tough coz I am." Sam replied, walking towards the door.
Kai turned to her and said.
"You expect me to watch you eat? You are like Tyson."
"Now don't start that again." Sam said then asked, "Are you coming great and almighty Kai?"
"What did you just call me?" he asked.
"You heard me." Smiling.
"I don't think I did."
"I called you the great and almighty Kai." She repeated trying to keep a straight face.
"That's it." He said running after her.
Sam laughed as she ran down the corridor.
"Come on Kai even a snail can run faster than you!" Sam teased.
She then ran straight into Ray.
"Hey Ray." She smiled then looked behind her to see how far away Kai was. "Ahhh… I liked to stay and chat but… ahhh… I gotta go…" slowly walking backward.
As she turned to run off she bumped into Max they both feel to the floor with a 'thud'.
"Oooh." Max said holding his head.
"Hey Maxie you okay?" Tyson asked helping him up.
"Yea I think so." He replied then looked to Sam seeing Ray helping her.
"Next time we run into each other let's not do it so hard." He joked.
"Yea." Sam said with a little laugh.
"Sam you okay?" Kai asked worriedly.
"I'm fine don't worry about me."
Everyone except Kai smiled remembering the first time she had said that.
"Who were you running from anyway?" Kenny asked.
"Kai." Sam answered.
That confused everyone.
"Why?"
Sam laughed a little before saying.
"Because I called him…"
"Sam." Kai interrupted.
"Yea?"
"What? What did you call him?" Tyson asked wanting to know.
"I'll tell ya later." She replied with a wink hoping Kai didn't notice.
"I thought you wanted to get some breakfast." Kai said wanting to change the subject.
"Yes oh…" stopping mid sentence "Never mind." Shaking her head and walking off.
Kai followed her.
"What was that all about?" Tyson asked confused.
"I don't think we wanna know." Ray answered as they all walked back to their room.
In the hotel restaurant –
Sam was munching on a piece of toast while Kai drank his tea, finally he said
"Sam when you were singing earlier, were you…singing about anyone n particular?" breaking the silence between them.
Sam smiled and answered
"Now that would be telling." Taking a sip of her drink "Why do you ask?"
"Oh…uh no reason."
"Anything else you wanna know?"
"No, it's just that I love you." he answered thinking he was speaking in mind.
"What?" Sam asked amazed.
It was then he realised that he had just said it out loud and went a little red. Sam smiled at Kai's predicament and placed a hand on top of his, making him go even redder.
"It's okay, I know you didn't mean to say that."
What? He accidentally confesses his love for her and she doesn't think he means it?
Sam stood up breaking the contact between them and finding herself suddenly wished she hadn't. She now knew she loved him back and that her feelings for him had never really gone, but she wanted to have a little fun first. Turning back to go up to the others but as she did so Kai grabbed her arm stopping her and making her heart jump at his touch.
She turned back to him.
"Yes I did mean it."
Sam didn't answer she just gave a nod of her head.
"I…uh gotta go I… uh wanna to speak to uh… Tyson about something."
And with that left Kai wondering if she felt the same.
In Tyson and Max's room –
"You called him what?" Max asked laughing.
Tyson was already in tears of laughter.
"The great and almighty Kai." Sam repeated for the third time.
"No wonder he didn't want us to know." Kenny said walking in and seeing Tyson and Max in fits of laughter.
"Now you know why I was running." Sam said laughing a little herself.
"I wouldn't call him that though, he might be a little annoyed that Sam told you." Dizzi pointed out.
"Awww come on Dizzi it's only a bit of fun." Tyson said wiping his eyes.
"What is?" Ray asked from doorway, wondering what all laughing was about.
"Calling…" Tyson stopped mid sentence seeing Kai appear beside Ray. "…Max a…bad blader."
Max stopped laughing immediately.
"Hey Tyson that isn't very nice." Not seeing Kai was in the doorway.
Sam however had. -I think it's time I left.- she thought as she got up and headed towards the door but Kai wouldn't let her through.
" 'Cuse me." She said.
But Kai wouldn't move, he knew she'd told them. Which is something he didn't want especially Tyson. When Max got up to leave Kai let him through but when Sam tried it he wouldn't let her pass.
"Are you going to stand there all day?"
Kai didn't answer to which Sam sighed.
"Kai if you don't move outta the way I'll make you." she knew it was an empty threat but she couldn't think of anything else to say.
Kai raised an eyebrow at her.
"Grrr… fine then! Be like that!" she said moodily and sat back on Max's bed.
The others had all left near enough the same time Max had, leaving her the only one in the room. She could hear Tyson saying 'come on Max. You know I was only kidding!'
"I would like to return to my room sometime today you know." She said sarcastically.
Kai just shook his head.
"Fine!" she said laying back on Max's bed and looking up at the ceiling.
Kai smiled, walked over to her and sat down next to her. He leaned over her putting one hand on the other side of the bed so she couldn't get up.
"Now what did you call me earlier?" he asked.
Suddenly it all clicked into place, he was getting his 'revenge' for earlier. She looked at him and smiled.
"That all depends." She answered.
"On what?"
"On what the great and almighty Kai plans to do." She teased smiling.
"This."
He then leaned down and kissed her and after a few seconds she started to kiss him back.
When thy broke the kiss Sam said.
"You know we'd better continue this in my room or we might get a lot of interruptions."
"I'd like to see them try." Kai joked.
And they kissed again.
