Hi everyone! We're back. Sorry it took so long. We've been thinking of ideas for this chapter for ages and still haven't thought of anything. So we have no idea where this is going. Oh well!

Chapter 8 Date Disaster or Not?

'Where the hell am I going to take him?' Rei was frantically flicking through magazines trying to find somewhere to take Kai. In the process of doing so, he had realized how little he knew about him. 'I don't even know what his favorite food is,' he thought to himself. He gave up on the magazines and went to find the others. This was his last resort.

"Hey Rei! What's up?" Tyson asked as he walked in the living room.

"Err… I was wondering if you guys could give me hand."

"Why? What do you want us…" he was cut off as Kai walked through the door. He put his keys on the sideboard and shut the door. He gestured Rei to him.

"Excuse us children. Rei and I have something to do."

"Too much information dude!" Tyson cried.

"Tyson, don't be such a pervert." Kai gave him a warning look and lead Rei to the kitchen. He picked him up and sat him on the worktop. Suddenly, Rei remembered that morning.

"Where did you go this morning?" He asked, thumping him playfully.

"If I told you that, I'm afraid I'd have to kill you."

"Please!" whimpered Rei with his best puppy dog eyes.

"Well…Okay, but it's a secret." He leant towards Rei. "I got you a present."

"You spoil me rotten."

"Are you complaining?" Kai smirked.

"Of course not," Rei gave him a questioning look, "where is it then?"

"What are you gonna give me in return?" This time Rei smirked. He pulled Kai to him and kissed him passionately. After a while, he pulled away slightly leaving a few centimeters between them.

"How's that?" Kai still had his eyes closed.

"Hn."

"I'll take that as a yes." He jumped off the worktop and reached around to the present Kai was holding behind his back.

"Thank you." He opened the bag and reached in. he pulled out a video. "Notting Hill! Kai this is like my favorite film ever!" He kissed him lightly on the cheek and rested his head on the taller boy's shoulder.

"So where are we going tonight?" Kai asked, not moving.

"Well…err…it's a surprise!"

"I look forward to it. I've got to go out again now. I need some new clothes for tonight."

"Okay. See you then!" Rei said, practically pushing him out the door.

"Err…bye." Rei quickly shut the door and waited.

"Shit. Shit. Shit," he cursed, hitting his head off the wall.

"Err…Rei?" Kai was standing in the doorway.

"Kai! Why are you here?"

"I didn't have chance to get my keys. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine! Have you got them now?"

"Yeah. Are you sure…

"Right, off you go. See you later."

"Yeah," Kai said as the door shut in his face. 'Strange.' He shook his head and carried on down the hall.

Rei ran back into the living room. Tyson and the others were still sat on the sofa.

"You guys! Where am I gonna take Kai?"

"Forget that. When are you gonna make dinner?"

"That's it!"

"What's it?"

"Tyson you're a genius!"

"I know," he grinned, "but what did I say?"

"I'll make him dinner!"

"Yeah. But when are you going to make US dinner?"

"Oh forget it. I'm going out. I need to get some stuff for tonight." He grabbed his own keys and left quickly.

"There goes one weird dude." Tyson shook his head as Max laughed at his friend.

Rei went into the kitchen and put the food he'd bought on the table. He began to get out pans and other things he was going to need. It didn't take long for Tyson to realize someone was cooking and, in a flash, he was in the kitchen too.

"ALRIGHT! Food!"

"This isn't for you Tyson. You're going to have to go out and eat tonight."

"Do we have to? I've got no money and your cooking's so much better."

"You've got no money. Haven't the others got any?"

"No we spent every last penny at the mall yesterday. Can you lend us some?"

"I spent it all on this. And before you ask you are not having my card."

"Can't Kai lend us some?"

"No! Tonight's his night; he's not lending you money."

"If you make us some food we'll stay in our rooms and be REALLY quiet." Rei laughed at this. "What? I was being serious."

"You'll be able to stay in your rooms all night and stay completely silent. No way!"

"I bet you I can." Rei sighed.

"You promise?"

"I promise."

"Fine. Now go away, I'm busy."

Rei stepped out of their bathroom. He'd bravely left Tyson and Max with the food as he needed to get ready. He dried his hair in a hurry and opened his wardrobe. He pulled out a black shirt and a pair of baggy black cords. He got dressed quickly as he'd already left them on their own for an hour. As he reached the living room he stopped. There was smoke coming from underneath the kitchen door. Just then the smoke alarm went off.

"Oh. My. God." He ran in to find Tyson jumping on a flannel and Max throwing a bowl of water on the cooker.

"Oh hi Rei. Tyson's just set the oil on fire, tried to put it out with a dry cloth and set that on fire too. You look nice." Max cried over Tyson's screams.

"No! My meal. What am I going to do?" As he said this, the front door opened.

"That's Kai!"

"Well, we'll be going now. Are you gonna be alright? Good. See you later!" Tyson shouted as he ran past a confused Kai, dragging Max with him.

"Wait!"  

"Okay, should I ask what's going on?" Kai said, stepping into the kitchen.

"No, but I'll tell you anyway," Rei breathed in deeply and let out a day's worth of stress. "This morning I still had no idea where I was going to take you and then Tyson kinda suggested I cook for you so I went shopping really quickly and got everything going and it was going to be perfect until some madness possessed me to let him and Max look after everything why I got ready and then they set the kitchen on fire and now I've got no idea what we're gonna do 'cause everything's ruined and… wait. Why are you laughing?"

"I'm sorry, it's just…you look so adorable there de-stressing."

"Hey!"

"Look. Do you really think I'm bothered about some fancy meal? I just want to be with you tonight." Rei looked up at him and smiled.

"Really?" Kai sighed.

"Listen. Where did put your present?"

"Err…I think it's still on the table. Why?"

"Because we're gonna watch it." He picked it up and grabbed Rei's hand. "And, as for dinner, how does pizza sound?"

"Good. But I'm paying." They sat on the sofa. Rei rested his head on Kai's shoulder who smiled slightly and kissed it.

"In case I forget to say it later, I had a great time tonight," Kai whispered. (A: N this quote is from Pretty Woman, which, as you can probably tell, Becky loves.)

"You've been watching my videos!" Rei cried as Kai began laughing.

"I only wanted to know what all the fuss was about and besides, I didn't say I enjoyed it did I?"

"No but I bet you loved it really!" Kai smirked a little as Rei said this. "You did didn't you?"

"Of course I didn't!" They both laughed as Rei put his head back down.

"I can tell you're lying."
