Like I said, I already typed half before I left, and so this will be an extra long chapter for YOU. KAIxREI FROM NOW ON!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, YOUR LOSS!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yah, 1/3 of this chap is Rei's point of view.
-(We Can't Make Love)-
"Ashiteru."
'I Love You. The three unpredictable words from any person; let alone the only and only Kai Hiwatari. He loves me. And I DO have a soft side for him in my heart. What hurts me is that... Half of me wants to reject him, not for my own selfishness, but for his safety. If my enemies found out that this, my friend, likes me, they will take him, or any others away from me.
I cannot let that happen.
But my other half? Wants to love and cherish Kai, like he does or me. I do like him... He made the first move. I guess I didn't know he's gay. But what about me? Am I gay? Well, when I first laid my eyes on him, I knew he wasn't an ordinary bad ass blader. He's a HOT bad ass blader. Any fangirl would want him. No questions asked.
Then why did he choose me? Supernatural, cursed, killer: Rei Kon?
The real question here is: Should I accept Kai's love? Like I said before, if I do, it's a deadly risk. I can't let my friends in danger just because of this stupid stone. I can't. Not an option. On the other hand... This is Kai we're talking about.
What should I do?
Kai is still hugging me like I'm dead; If he does keep hugging me tightly, I'll lack of oxygen and I'll BE dead. "Kai..." I muttered. "Hm?" I feel hot tears running down my cheeks. I hate to be the one to hurt you, Kai. But I must. For your on safety, I must.
"Kai... I... Me?" I stammered. He just stares at me and wipes my tears. I push them away with my shaking hands. "W-We can't make love. I'm sorry Kai. We just... can't." Kai has a shocking expression mixed with a broken heart. "You love Mariah, don't you?" He asked me quietly. I shake my head. "I'm sorry Kai. I can't. I would, but I can't." "We'll... Still be... friends, right? You- You don't think I'm a homosexual freak or something, do you? If you do... I'll understand." Kai added the last sentence fast.
"Kai, no matter what, we'll always be friends... But not lovers... And... I don't think you're a freak. Kai, you're a beautiful creature. Everyone wants you, but I can't. Gomen nasai, Kai. I'M SORRY!!!" I scream and run deeper into the forest. This pain is just too much. At times like this, I'd wish I could return the favour. One day, I will, or I'll quit beyblading.
I slowed down and climbed a tree. Sitting on a thick branch, I cried. Ever since I got this son of a bitch piece of a rock, I was miserable. And elder said I should be proud?! What kind of fucking wisdom is that?! Argh! It's tearing me apart; starting with my soul, and then my heart. And I should be PROUD?! What a lie.
What a reject I am...
I feel sleep taking over me. I hope my dreams are about me and Kai, Kai and me alone. No more of this fucking good for nothing piece of shit. Holding the stone, I wished I couldn't be found until I wake up. Let me sleep of happiness, not despair...'
Kai stood motionless. He did his good deed for the month: Tell Rei how he truly feels for him. Okay, not really a good deed but that deed just led to a disaster. Rei didn't reject him, but just said he couldn't love him. What did that mean?
He walked out of the forest, almost blind in tears. He hid his eyes under his dark bangs, but those scarlet orbs were immune to the background. He sighed. People were starting to stare, so he started to run.
When he came back to his room, not the hospital, he slammed the door shut and thought. "We can't make love... I'm sorry Kai... I would, but I can't..." That voice keeps replaying in his head. I would, but I can't. Does that mean Rei loves him too? Or was he just playing with him? Kai sighed. What does it mean? He needed to find out.
'Maybe going back to the hospital is best for now.' He thought. He wiped his tears and walked to where he desires. Which was, the hospital.
"KAI!" Everyone said before asking him a bundle of questions. "How's Rei?" "Did you find him?" "Is he okay?" "How did he take it?" Kai just pushed them away in anger. "He's fine." He grunted. "You're not sounding so serious." "I am." But deep inside, he knew he didn't know.
Rei woke up in the middle of the night. He was still bloody and dirty. Then wished he could be clean, and so he was. Rei looked upon the night sky. The night sparkled with more stars than ever. Those were the poor people who died from Rei. "I'm sorry..." He muttered, and he truly meant it.
After a long sigh, he wished he knew what time was it. 12:26 played in his mind, so he jumped. "WHAT?!" He yelled in disbelief. He jumped from the tree, and ran back to the hospital. People stood out of his way, fearing he will kill them too.
On the elevator, Rei had second thoughts. What if... They don't like him anymore? And what about Kai? Wouldn't he hate him?
His hand was reaching for the doorknob. He didn't know whether he should or not. That's when he heard voices from inside... "I don't care. I'm gonna wait for Rei to comeback." "He's not coming back. He probably left for good this time." "What makes you have negative thoughts?" "It's just..."
"Tyson and me had a chat one night and... Well, people won't listen that he was cursed and all and so... How many people will forgive him?! The whole world is after him to put him in death! The prize money is billions! What will they take? Rei, a once murderer or billions of dollars?"
Holding his breath, Rei opened the door.
Unnoticed by Kai and Hilary, who were the ones chatting, he continued to listen.
"And besides... Even I think, deep inside that... I can't trust him... He almost killed me, and killed Lee ruthlessly. And I know that... Everyone else agrees with me on this one Kai. What if the stone is getting out of hand? What if..."
Kai was disappointed at his friend. "Look, Rei's normal. He's sane now. And he won't kill you and –""Kai, I know you love him but don't just think about him! Think about the other Bladebreakers and the White Tigers! The White Tigers lost their team captain because of Rei! And like I said before: Tyson, Max, Kenny, Daichi, Mariah, Gary, Kevin all think the same! What if the stone is too much for Rei?"
Kai slammed his fist on the table, making it crack. His eyes flashed with anger. "LISTEN TO YOURSELF! YOU ACTING LIKE REI IS STILL A MONSTER!!! HE'S NOT, OKAY?! HE'S NOT!!!!" "Kai, I'm only thinking what's best for everyone!" "EVERYONE EXCEPT REI!" "Kai, you're gonna have to admit you think so too. Face it, Rei needs to know."
"I think Rei already knows."
Both Kai and Hilary jumped and looked behind them. There was Rei. Shining tears of gloom filled the bright sunny eyes. "You heard?" Hilary asked softly. "I didn't just hear, I know. 'What if Rei can't handle the stone?'" He mocked. "Rei, it's not what you think..." "I don't care! You just think I'm a whore goddamn it! Everyone thinks so! " He grabbed his Driger and ran out of the room.
"Rei! Comeback!"
Does he have any friends anymore? Rei asked himself. Nope, not at all. Those bitches were ONCE my friends. I'm better of alone... He jumped in the air and flew whereever he wants, while on the ground, Kai screamed for him to return.
