Disclaimer: I don't own any of the beyblade characters, just merely
borrowing them ^_~
A/N: Its been forever I know, but chapter 7 & 8 have been a total pain. I knew exactly what I wanted to say in the last chapters, but the in between chapters, well writer's block doesn't even begin to describe. Hence why I don't think this story has been my best writing, but anyways. ON WITH THE STORY
PS. As I'm going away for the holidays this will be the last chapter I post till I'm back from hols, but the final chapters are done so posting won't take as long. Oh, and thanks to all my faithful reviewers!!! You all make me smile!!! ^_^

Love Is Thicker Than Blood
Chapter 8: Stumblings
------------------------------
(Kai's POV)
For what seemed only moments though it was probably hours Rei and I sat under the moon. My arms wrapped protectively around him. Both of us content, though lost in our thoughts. No matter how much I tried to convince myself, and promise myself, something inside of me knew I couldn't protect us. Something inside me knew I couldn't protect Rei.
I sat there holding him, trying and trying to convince myself that nothing could get near him, but if the Majestics were to find us in the day time what help would I be then? I'd be as good as dead along with the others.
The thought of losing the others, especially Rei cut down deep. It felt like it was ripping my soul apart, if I even still had one. Either way something inside me was falling apart. I could feel the tears in my eyes, but I embraced them and refused to let them go. No tear must be shed by me. Not in times like these. I had to be strong.
"Kai.?" Rei asked quietly.
I looked down to find him staring up at me from his spot on my shoulder. He must have noticed my tears as he reached his hand up to wipe them away, but instead I brought my hand up to meet his and changed its direction. I kissed his hand lightly.
"I love you Rei."
"I love you too Kai," Rei said softly, a small smile surfacing on his face.
For awhile I just stared into those loving golden eyes of his. Allowing myself to get lost in the love that filled them, wishing I could forever drown myself in them. Getting pulled in by them I leaned into Rei and kissed his luscious lips deeply. The need for him started taking over my body. I could feel him starting to lose himself in that need too, then I sensed them and pulled away from him. "The Majestics are back."
And without another word I stood and took his hand before heading back inside.

(Rei's POV)
Kai and I were just returning from sitting under the moon when I heard a familiar voice call out my name.
"Rei? Oh Re~ei?" Oliver called as he searched for me.
"Yes Oliver?" I asked walking into the kitchen with Kai.
Oliver's face lit up the instant he saw me and Kai. He bounded up to me, and hugged me tight as he giggled with glee.
"Oh I can't wait! This is going to be so much fun!!!" He exclaimed happily, taking my hands and jumping up and down excitedly.
I was highly confused. I had no idea what had gotten the blonde so excited. I looked over to Kai who just shrugged and rolled his eyes, and then looked towards Enrique who just stood there smirking.
"Uh. Oliver? What's going to be fun?" I asked voicing my confusion.
The hyperactive blonde suddenly stopped jumping, and released my hands. It must have finally dawned on him that I hadn't the slightest of ideas what he was talking about. He smiled as he straightened his black tee that said "I Didn't Do It." in lilac letters before taking my hand and sitting me down at the kitchen table.
"Enrique had the most wonderful idea," he began, beaming from ear to ear.
I sat and listened how he explained that they were leaving in two days so he thought that himself and I could plan a whole bunch of things for us all to do together for that time. I smiled politely as I listened to him but through the whole thing alarms merely went off in my head. How were we to spend all that time with them when-.
"Isn't just the most wonderful idea?!?" Oliver squealed happily, clapping his hands together in excitement.
"Oh. yes it sure is," I said trying to sound as bright as I could, forcing a smile.
"Ah, I see the plans have already begun," Robert said smiling as came into the kitchen with Johnny, Tyson, and Max following.
---------------------------
(Johnny's POV)
"Oh this is going to be so much fun!!!" Oliver squealed happily as everyone continued on with the planning of the next few days' events.
"God I'm so bored!" I thought to myself.
They've been planning these last few days forever, well okay maybe only an hour or two but still. This was ridiculous, what the heck am I doing just standing here? My eyes were starting to droop, and fighting sleep was not something I was into. I did my best to hide my yawns but after awhile I didn't care.
"I-I think I'm gonna hit the sack," I said through a yawn, not being able to stand around any longer.
Everyone seemed not to be really paying attention as they mumbled except Robert who seemed just as bored as me but didn't voice it. He said a more formal goodnight to me before returning his attention to Oliver.
On my way out of the kitchen I decided to cut through the living room figuring it would be quicker. My eyes were still drooping as I half blinded, walked through the living room.
I cursed to myself when my foot caught on the carpet in front of the fireplace. I tried catching the fireplace to prevent my fall, but merely scraped my fingers against the side before falling on my face.
"Stupid carpet," I muttered, getting to my feet as I rubbed my head.
That's when I heard it, the grating of stone. Something was moving. I was then met with the fireplace forcing me to stumble back a few steps. The fireplace was moving away from the wall. A dark passageway stood before me, with stairs descending down into its depths. For awhile I couldn't believe what I was seeing, and then I snapped out of it.
"I wonder where this leads," I whispered to myself before starting to descend the stairs.
