Chapter 3: Lunariums
Wyatt slowly opened his eyes getting used to the sun light that was reflecting in his room. He saw that dusk had long since come and gone and now night had arrived. With lazy eyes he read 7:30 on his alarm clock, dinner was long over by now, not that he was hungry. He would have liked to have hung out with his friends though, that is if he didn't already know about how eventually they'd want the details of what happened to him today. Deciding that he needed to get up even if he was still tired, he slowly sat up and stretched. He noticed that he was still wearing his uniform minus his jacket. With a sigh he got up and began to change. In 5 minutes he was in normal clothes and looked decent enough to walk outside.
He reached the outdoor school grounds without an incident. Breathing in the fresh air, he walked further on the grass heading toward his favorite garden. Unlike the other ones, which had only the usual types of plants and flowers, his garden had rare and exotic ones. Some of them would be deemed rather ugly and not very fragrant, but to him they were beautiful. He hummed a song as he made his way past a few trees. Almost all the gardens in the academy were in the shape of mazes each leading to the center, with tall bushes full of flowers acting as the walls. The center of each garden had a different fountain in their center. In his garden, the fountain was large like the others, but the top level held a group of four female statues in different types of togas. All of them held on and bore the weight a crescent moon above their heads.
Nobody cared enough to come here and when he needed a place to think this was his sanctuary. He looked up to see that the moon had begun to rise. When he reached the garden's entrance, he stopped and had put his hands in his pocket simply waiting a few minutes until he looked at his wrist watch to see that it was now 7:45. He looked up expectantly at the bushes waiting. As if taking their cue, the flowers began to come to life. Slowly, but surely the flowers began to open their petals one at a time towards where the moon was. He walked in the maze of these flowers, the whole sight breathtaking. Every time he did this, it felt like the flowers opened up because of him, only for him.
He continued to hum as he made his way to the center, already knowing the path by heart. As he turned the last corner, he stopped humming and was for the umpteenth time today surprised by the sight before him. There on the grass, arms behind his head, face turned to the sky, laid Kai Hiwatari.
Wyatt stood there, not knowing what do to. As he walked silently towards Kai, he realized that other boy was asleep. He looked around him admiring everything, before he turned his attention back to Kai. As quiet as a mouse, he sat down Indian style in front of Kai. A part of him told him, he should wake Kai up, rather than rudely stare at him. The other side said to leave Kai alone and simply take the opportunity to admire him because he'd never get another chance to.
He looked down at the way the moonlight shone on Kai's skin. He wanted to touch Kai's hair and see what it felt like, but he quickly squashed that idea knowing that he'd wake the other boy. He contented himself with admiring the other boy's profile and peaceful expression. He looked very different asleep; not so angry or serious, he looked happy and docile. Wyatt had to laugh in his head at the words that had come to his mind when describing Kai. Awake, Kai was anything but docile and he certainly never looked happy. He examined the other boy's lean body, which was like him, dressed in blue jeans, a white t-shirt and a jacket.
Wyatt look up at the moon above him and let a small sigh escape. There was no denying it now, he now knew for sure that his infatuation had turned into a crush on Kai. As he contemplated this new revelation he realized that his crush wasn't on the stoic and cruel Kai that was in the world championships. It was on Kai Hiwatari, his rough around the edges but a good guy underneath classmate. In his eyes, he saw the old Kai, like one would see an mask on a person. It seemed like a facade that covered up all the goodness and positive feelings he had for people. The Kai that saved him from falling off the roof, smacked him upside his head for being stupid and making Kai secretly worry, the one who cleaned the gash on his hand, this was the one he believed was real. The one that had kindness and compassion. Unlike the one in the world championships who he and many others had come to know as the tough as nails member of the BladeBreakers.
When Kai began to stir in his sleep, Wyatt quickly got up, but not before taking one last look at Kai, memorizing the image for later. He got up and ran behind one of the bush walls. He resumed his humming, and began walking again, making it seem like it was only now that he was just walking into the garden. When he again turned the corner he saw Kai staring at the moon sitting up, one leg bent up with his elbow on it.
"Kai? What are you doing here?" Wyatt said, inwardly please that he sounded sincere. Kai looked over at him. "I found this place yesterday and found it-" "to be a good place for thinking." Wyatt finished for him. At the suspicious look on Kai's face, Wyatt quickly rushed on, "I come here all the time to think. It's pretty secluded because except for the gardeners, no one likes to come here."
"So then what is your other reason for coming here?" Kai asked him still looking at Wyatt with his deep red eyes. Wyatt walked over appearing to be thinking about how to answer. "Um...well, I also happen to like the rare flowers and plants that grow here. Some of them are turnsoles, they're plants that move themselves according to where the sun is. Those are fine and all, but I like the rest that are here, because when the moon comes out these open up their flower petals. It's actually pretty cool to see them all open and light up." Wyatt looked around him and saw a bud that was in the shade of the bushes but was going to open up in a minute. "Like this." Wyatt said as he pointed toward the blossom that he had looked at before. "Do you see the one I'm talking about?" Kai looked for it and nodded when he found the small bud. Both waited in silence as the moon slowly moved over the flower. The flower in turn opened up and pointed in the direction of the moon. Kai paid attention to it all and had felt a sense of calm as he watched the bud grow in size and beauty. He stole a glance at Wyatt's face to see that the serious look on his face had changed into a smile instead.
Wyatt saw that Kai had turned the rest of his attention to the garden, inspecting it with a scrutinizing eye. The silence lasted for awhile with neither boy speaking. While Kai examined what was before him, Wyatt got up and went to lay down on his favorite spot. He sat on the ledge keeping the lower level of water in. He took off his jacket, seeing as how it was not that cold anyway. He slowly lowered himself down on the ledge, when he had made sure he wouldn't fall into the water, he placed his hands behind his head and was content to just look at the stars.
This was one of his favorite things to do. He was an amateur star gazer from having spent so much time here and he liked looking up at the dark boundless space, he nor anyone else could touch. Even the position he laid in required stillness. One wrong move to the left and he'd land on water. One wrong move to the right and he'd fall on the ground and more importantly on Kai. He tried to close his eyes and relax, but it became increasingly harder when he felt Kai's eyes on him.
When he didn't think the silence could become any more mundane, Kai finally spoke, "Why?" The question made Wyatt open his eyes in confusion and turn his head towards Kai. Kai now sat Indian style, an elbow propped up on each of his knees, his chin resting on the fists of his hands as he stared intently at Wyatt.
"I beg your pardon?" Wyatt asked still not understanding. "Almost every blader I've ever met has asked me to beybattle with them whether they're any good or not. So why didn't you challenge me to beybattle when you first met me?"
"What are you nuts?" Wyatt said in a joking tone. "I like beyblading with the guys at my school, but beyblading you would be suicidal. Beybattling you doesn't seem that much fun, win or lose...uh no offense." "None taken." "I'd be content just learning tricks from your technique so that I can get better. Believe me, I usually recognize when I can take on someone." Wyatt said with a smile. "Like the blader you took on earlier today." Kai said not smiling back. "I said usually and besides that was different anyway." Wyatt said looking up at the sky again. "How so?" Kai asked him hoping to draw out the answer he wanted to. "It just was." Wyatt answered, sensing what Kai was fishing for. Not in the mood to play games, Kai stressed the question again, "How?"
Wyatt let out a sigh, "It was different...because I didn't do it for me...I did it to help a friend...I did it to help you. The outcome didn't matter that much to me, all that mattered was that someone was trying to hurt you. I wasn't going to stand idly by and let that happen." Kai said nothing more afterwards. Wyatt closed his eyes again and felt the tense silence encircle him. A sudden hand touched his elbow, but startled him enough to lose his balance and fall clothes and all into the fountain.
Kai's hand was still outstretched, but now he held a look of surprise on his face. When Wyatt sat up sputtering and coughing, he couldn't help it anymore and began to laugh. Wyatt brushed the wet hair away from his face and looked up to see Kai laughing. He bowed his head down and blushed.
As he looked on, a part of him was completely embarrassed, while the other was happy to have made Kai laugh like that. With no evil or malice in it, just laughing with pure mirth and content. Wyatt smiled as a happy thought came to mind. When Kai had settled down, Wyatt put a look of mock indignation on his face. "Alright, if your quite done laughing, care to help me up?" Kai stood up, a half smirk on his face as he leaned forward to help Wyatt up. Wyatt extended his hand to hold Kai's. When their hands touched, Wyatt's other hand darted out grabbing Kai's shirt and pulled Kai into the water.
Now it was Wyatt's turn to laugh. While Kai was under water, one of the big spikes in his hair had stuck out of the water making him look like a shark. Kai sat up to see Wyatt laughing at him. He ran a hand through his hair, making it spikier than usual. Seeing Wyatt laugh brought a small smile to his face, that the other boy didn't notice.
Slowly both boys dragged themselves out of the water till they sat on the ledge of the fountain. Kai took off his wet jacket that was now heavy with water. He looked up to see Wyatt shake the water off his head. When he was done the strands went every which way and clung to parts of his face. Something about seeing that action struck something in Kai. As Wyatt wrung out part of his shirt, he didn't notice Kai staring at him.
Kai looked at Wyatt as if truly seeing him for the first time. He glanced at the boy's body, now more visible with the wet clothes clinging on to him. He saw the gentle curve of his neck. The shape and color of his cheeks, the shape of his nose. The way the wet strands of his dark brown hair clung to his soft face and went into his innocent brown eyes. The sheen of his hair against the light from his eyes. Despite the messy and unkempt appearance Wyatt was in, beautiful was the only word Kai turned over in his mind as he saw him. Wyatt still had not noticed his staring, for which Kai was glad, knowing that his staring would freak out the other boy.
He edged closer to Wyatt and deftly brushed away a strand of hair from the other boy's face. Wyatt stopped wringing out his clothes with a start. He turned his head toward Kai, wondering where the kind gesture had come from. Confused eyes locked on to Kai's own red ones. Wyatt felt nervous and knew his heart was racing. With some noticeable hesitation Kai again brushed away another strand of hair from his face, but this time let the tips of his fingers stray down and brush his eyebrows. The fingers slid down the length of Wyatt's face, resting on his cheek.
Wyatt couldn't believe this was happening. The boy that he'd admired for his beyblading, had showed him a small glimpse of his other self, and had fallen for, was touching his face. He leaned into the touch, hinting what he wanted with his eyes.
Kai struggled with his emotions as he held Wyatt's face. His mind told him he was treading in a place he shouldn't. That he'd only hurt Wyatt in the end because of the way he was. His heart told him to give into the desire to kiss Wyatt. The look of trust and want in Wyatt's eyes stopped everything and he made up his mind, his heart had won. He placed his hand firmly over the boy's cheek and used his other hand to bring him closer.
Both boys closed their eyes as their lips met in a gentle kiss. Wyatt relished the sensation of being kissed for the first time. He felt an unnamable feeling course through him before they broke apart a minute later. Wyatt held a happy and glazed look in his eyes, while Kai simply ran his tongue over his lips. "You taste sweet." Wyatt looked at him smiling, but blushed when Kai descended on his mouth again and kissed him more passionately. Wyatt wrapped his hands around Kai's neck, playing with the hairs at his nape. Kai had moved his hands, one holding the back of Wyatt's head and the other loosely holding on to the boy's waist.
As Kai kissed Wyatt he opened the boy's mouth more with his lips, but didn't French kiss him, already knowing that this was Wyatt's first time being kissed. He tried to be gentle with him, but his control kept slipping the more he kissed Wyatt's pliant mouth. To his surprise Wyatt's tongue hesitantly slipped into his mouth. This was something he did not expect from the seemingly innocent boy. 'Guess he's not that innocent.' He did nothing, simply letting the other boy explore his mouth. Wyatt broke the kiss panting as Kai leaned his head so their foreheads touched.
"How could you care so much about me when you don't know me that well?" Kai asked in a low voice. Wyatt let out a breath before he responded, "Probably for the same reason you let go and kissed me. What I've seen so far is pretty cool, so the rest can't be that bad." Kai smiled one of his rare smiles at him before he began to draw his lips to him. He was going to give Wyatt the best kiss of his life, but was interrupted by the sound of people entering the garden. Both boys broke apart as they heard the voices getting closer.
"Wyatt!" Chris yelled as he looked around the bush walls.
"Hey, bud are you here?!" Ethan called out.
"How the hell does he find his way around here, this is so damn confusing." came the frustrated voice of Michael.
"Wyatt! Dude this isn't funny anymore!" Ethan belted out.
"Yeah where are you?!" Chris turned a corner his friends following him.
"Your friends." Kai gritted out in mild frustration. Wyatt smiled before whispering, "It'll take them 2 minutes to figure out how to make it here." Kai helped him up, "Enough time for me to leave." "Leave? Why are you-" "I have to leave. That beyblader will be back and I have to know what I'm dealing with." he said as he picked up his duffle bag and swung it over his shoulder. "So where are you going? When will you be back?" Wyatt asked quickly. Kai looked at him and saw the worried look on the other's boy face. He smirked as he thought of something, "I'm gonna reunite with some old friends. I'll be back on Sunday, and then we'll finish what we started." He gave Wyatt another passionate kiss before he pushed the other boy back into the fountain.
"Hey guys, I heard something." "Yeah, me too." "I think it's this way, come on." Michael, Ethan and Chris, all finally made their way to the center of the garden, but didn't see anything. "Wyatt?" Chris called out. Out of nowhere Wyatt sat up coughing and sputtering. He blinked his eyes several times and wiped the water off his face. "Whoa Wyatt, there are ya are buddy...swimming...in the fountain." Ethan said while looking at Michael and Chris with a worried expression on his face.
All three helped Wyatt get out. "Are you alright Wyatt?" Chris asked as he noticed the wet boy's sad expression. "Uh yeah I'll be fine. What are you guys doing here?" He said as he for the second time tonight shook the water off his hair and wrung out his clothes. "More importantly dude, why the heck were you taking a nightly swim in the fountain?" Ethan asked helping Wyatt put on his coat. "I fell in. Don't ask." Wyatt said sheepishly. "Well if your certain that you'll be fine then we should leave now to avoid you getting sick. Alright gentlemen, and I use the term loosely, let's get our boy outta this cold place and into a warm beybattle." "Yeah come on buds let's go." Ethan yelled out waving a fist into the air. "Hahaha, I shouldn't have given him that sugar." Michael said as he laughed off chasing Ethan. The sounds of their fighting and laughing resounded through the garden. Chris sighed before starting to walk away, "Come on, we better stop those two before they kill each other and destroy the landscape." Wyatt had to smile at his immature friends. He looked back up at the moon one more time before running off to help Chris.

Chapter 3: Lunariums
Wyatt slowly opened his eyes getting used to the sun light that was reflecting in his room. He saw that dusk had long since come and gone and now night had arrived.

Chris called out. Out of nowhere Wyatt sat up coughing and sputtering. He blinked his eyes several times and wiped the water off his face. "Whoa Wyatt, there are ya are buddy...swimming...in the fountain." Ethan said while looking at Michael and Chris with a worried expression on his face.
All three helped Wyatt get out. "Are you alright Wyatt?" Chris asked as he noticed the wet boy's sad expression. "Uh yeah I'll be fine. What are you guys doing here?" He said as he for the second time tonight shook the water off his hair and wrung out his clothes. "More importantly dude, why the heck were you taking a nightly swim in the fountain?" Ethan asked helping Wyatt put on his coat. "I fell in. Don't ask." Wyatt said sheepishly. "Well if your certain that you'll be fine then we should leave now to avoid you getting sick. Alright gentlemen, and I use the term loosely, let's get our boy outta this cold place and into a warm beybattle." "Yeah come on buds let's go." Ethan yelled out waving a fist into the air. "Hahaha, I shouldn't have given him that sugar." Michael said as he laughed off chasing Ethan. The sounds of their fighting and laughing resounded through the garden. Chris sighed before starting to walk away, "Come on, we better stop those two before they kill each other and destroy the landscape." Wyatt had to smile at his immature friends. He looked back up at the moon one more time before running off to help Chris.
