Chapter 16:

Daydreams and Training

Jin stared at Kazi as she walked down the hallway. He stood there not sure of what to do. He suddenly shook his head and took off down the corridor. Jin touched her arm gently. Kazi stopped and turned around. His and fell from her arm and down to her hand.

"Kazi, I- Well.... uh... Did- Did you want to talk to me?" Kazi couldn't help but look into his dark brown eyes. She quickly tore her eyes away from his gaze and glance back up.

"Um... No.. I mean... I... I just wanted to see you I guess...." Jin smiled and Kazi blushed.

"It's ok, I mean... I wanted to see you too, but.." Jin himself blushed. Kazi looked at him.

"What?"

"Um... I... I think... I like your shorts...." Kazi remembered how she was dressed and looked down at her very short shorts and noticed it showed a lot of skin.

"OH! I-I'm sorry!" she backed up and started to walk fast towards her and Hwoarang's room, but stopped after a few steps. "Wait. Did you... Did you say 'You like them'?!" She turned around with a strange facial expression. Jin blushed uncontrollably and turned his face away. Kazi shook her head and chuckled softly. She walked back over and kissed him. Jin, by now, looked like a big, red, tomato in the face. The same sweet taste of sugared honey melted again and Kazi's hand found the back of his head, while the other fell to his waist. Kazi played with his hair as he embraced her and kissed her back. A moment passed and they reluctantly pulled away, both blushing. Kazi turned to walk away but paused and looked back.

"'Night."

"Good night." He replied almost instantly. Kazi smiled and entered her and Hwoarang's room still blushing. Jin stood in the hallway, slightly paralyzed by the afterglow. He looked down at his wet hand and realized he too, had been playing in her hair. He smiled as he walked back to his room and gave a glance back at where he came before entering.

Kazuya stretched and smirked as Jin walked behind him, almost half dragging himself to stay on his feet. Jun looked up from her lunch and stared at Kazuya and then at Jin, who was beaten and bruised. Her eyes narrowed at Kazuya. He burst into a fit of laughter.

"Kazuya. What have I told you about this?! You could seriously injure him! Kazuya! Are you listening?! KAZUYA!" Kazuya popped up straight at the last scream and realized she was upset. No, scratch that. She was ANGRY. Very very angry. Jin slumped into a chair and put his head down onto the table before popping it back up again at the sound of his name,

"Jin, are you alright?"

"Yes, Mom. I'm fine... Really... Fine..." He sat his head back onto the table and popped it up a second time in frustration.

"Where are they?! They can't possibly sleep until noon." Kazuya said taking a seat.

"Baek and the kids left while you guys where training. Said they were going to find another place to live in Japan for now." Jin sighed at Jun's words and thought back to Kazi and his little kiss in the hallway. "Jin? JIN!" Jun's scream pulled him back to reality.

"Uh-huh?! What?!" Kazuya began laughing again as Jun herself chuckled.

"You looked like you were having a VERY nice daydream-" Kazuya cut her off,

"And we decided to interrupt." Jun hit him over the head.

"No. We were just wondering. You had a very big smile on your face and your eyes changed. If I didn't know better-"

"You don't." Jun snatched a look at Kazuya,

"The same affliction... The same affliction, Kazuya..." She warned and the turned back to Jin, "If I didn't know better, I'd say you were thinking about Kazi." She smiled and washed her plate off before drying it and putting it away. She gave both of them an evil-like grin as she walked from the kitchen. Kazuya and Jin's eyes bulged out of their heads. They exchanged glances.

"Did- Did mom, just..."

"Uh-huh." They looked back at the doorway in horror.

"Mom, just... She... She grinned... evilly." Jin gulped his eyes still enormously big. Kazuya nodded.

"I-I think- I'm gonna go check it out..." Kazuya stood up and walked carefully towards the doorway like an army man on a mission before jetting down the hall. There suddenly was an evil laugh as Kazuya came sliding back into the kitchen.

"And-And to th-think I-I thought y-you were the most e-evil in the house..." Jin stuttered. Kazuya gulped and nodded as they backed up against the wall. A giant shadow crept across the hallway wall and the lights suddenly flickered.

"Jin look,….. I won't say this very often but Iloveyoumyson." Kazuya squinted his eyes shut. "You know… Just in case."

"Iloveyoutoodad." Jin back up against the wall of the on coming shadow and the growls of a beast. "Y-You think this is a-all because of my d-daydream or you and t-training?" Jin stuttered. A large roar filled the room and they jumped as the lights went out.
