Akio: Hey everybody, I'm sorry for the long delay. I was so caught up in other situations. But don't worry, my last day of school was June 14, 2004. So I'll have plenty of time to make more and more chapters! Yay! So guys, are you ready to read what you've been waiting for?

Haruki: Of course they are, and let me recognize a reviewer that said Kai should date Tyler. Reviewer, I don't think that'll ever happen. If you read Why My Cousin, Ty? and Living The Life, you'd see how much pain and chaos was caused by Tyler. But since you are one of my reviewers, I'll see what I can do to start up a relationship between the two. Ok? Glad to make you happy! See? That's how nice we are! Now, without further ado, let us present to you the desired third chapter of Stepper's Ball!

Steppers Ball

Kai walked down an alley leading to another street. As he got to the other end he saw Ray and the boy that flirted with his ex-koi...

"Kai! I found you. Why did you leave? Where were you?" Ray asked in concern.

"Why do you care?! And who do you think you are kissing someone else and then crawling back to me thinking you will suceed in getting me back? I'm not stupid Ray. I don't think we should date anymore...this is officially the end of the Kon-Hiwitari era.

"Kai, you're not serious, are you?" said Ray as his eyes started to water.

Kai couldn't stand to see Ray saddened like this, but he deserved it, so he continued by saying, "This is the end of me romantically in your life."

"But I love you, Kai Hiwatari!" Ray sobbed as Kai started to walk away. But suddenly he turned his head back facing Ray.

".....But Kai Hiwatari doesn't love you." said Kai as he continued walking.

Ray started to cry once again. The boy beside him lifted his chin up with a finger. "Ray, you have to let him go. He's nothing but your bossy captain to you now. Move on with your life. Find someone who would always respects your mistakes."

Ray looked into the boy's eyes. "Wow...I think I've already found him." whispered Ray as he pulled the boy in for a kiss.

The boy then scooped up Ray in his arms. "Why don't we go to my house...and find something to do."

"That'll be excellent." said Ray in a seductive voice.

Kai had heard everything. He didn't really leave. He stayed up against the wall. "So now I really know it's over between us. I can't believe I was going to give him a second chance. I wish him a happy day."

Back At Mr. Dickinson's House

"Boy am I full!" groaned Tyson in his chair. It was 7: 45 pm and most of the people were gone. The team decided to leave on account of their was nothing else to do. "Mr. Dickinson, we're leaving now!" yelled Max as the team walked the door. There was no response...

Kai's Mansion

" Helena! Helena! Where the hell are you?" yelled Tyler as he searched along the corridor. He'd been aching for some pudding for a long time now. Helena was no where in sight. So Tyler decided to make the pudding himself. He went to the cabinet and pulled out some pudding mix. Suddenly Helena appeared. "Boy, you haveh no rrright to be in ze kitchen! Get out!" scolded Helena as she pushed the boy out of the room. "Well will you at least make me...Oh never mind." said Tyler as he saw the threatening look on her face, warning him to get out of her sight. He went back upstairs and sat on one of the chairs along the large corridor. "I hate her," whispred Tyler, feeling hot tears build up in his eyes. He wiped his tears with the palm of his hands. "Oh Dad, when are you going to take me away from all this... I need you here with me." sobbed Tyler as he sat his head in his hands, leaning forward in the chair. He missed his father dearly, who was in a limo driving service, and never had time to see him, period.

Just then, Calvin appeared. "Hey slugger, whatcha doing sitting in the corridor?" said Calvin as he moved toward his friend. "Well, what else is there to do?" yelled Tyler as his usual sobbing started up again. Calvin pulled up a chair beside Tyler. "What a crybaby." Calvin thought. "Why are you crying?" he whispered as he ran his hand through Tyler's silver locks. "I really don't like Helena. She needs to lose some weight with her big- self. I don't know why I put up with her. Everytime I try to get something, she take it away. Now that Kai isn't here, it's worst. She doesn't even cook me dinner. As a matter of fact, even when Kai is here, he himself treats me with cruelty. What? What do they have against me, Calvin!?" as he stood up.

"Well, remember that time you beat up Ray when Kai put you in the basement the first night you were here? He had to lock you up in the bathroom. And remember that time when you woke Helena and asked her..."

"Ok, ok! I get it now! No more examples. From now on, I'll try to be less disturbing."

"That'll be the day." Calvin laughed.

"No, I'm serous!" said Tyler as he playfully punched Tyler in the arm.

"Well, I guess that's good to hear."

"It is, I'm going to apologize to Helena right now!" said Tyler as he ran down the stairs.

"She'll never forgive him." frowned Calvin. "No matter how much he tried. Suddenly the phone rang. He picked it up from a side table.

"Hello?" Calvin started.

"Oh hey Calvin."

"Well hello Kai! How'd the party go?"

"It was horrible."

"Horrible? Why?"

"Uh, I'll tell you later. Listen, I'm on my way home."

"But sir, you have about two more weeks in London, why are you leaving now?"

"Because I felt like it, ok? I'll be home by after midnight. Would you mind opening the gates for me?"

"Not at all, Sir."

"So, I guess I'll see you later tonight. Bye."

"Bye Kai."

As Calvin put the phone back on the base, he heard a loud smack that echoed through the corridor. "Ow!" he heard Tyler scream as he reappeared up the stairs with a hand on his cheek. "Tyler! What happened?" said Calvin as he felt the bruise on Tyler's cheek.

"Do you need ice?"

"No, I'll, I'll be fine."

"Why'd she slap you?"

"I went down there and apologized. She said nothing. So I asked if she forgived me. Still recieved no response, so I asked, and asked, and asked. Then she just slapped me and said I was pitiful!"

"See, there's the problem! You annoyed her again."

"But I didn't mean to. I can't tell if I'm bothering someone or not. That's just how I was raised."

"Ok, I guess I can't blame you for that. But you just have to have self- discipline, that's to key to gain someone's trust and friendship."

"Thanks Calvin, you're a big help." said Tyler as he pulled Calvin in for a hug.

Back At The Hotel...

"Where the hell are Kai and Ray? They've been gone for two long! I'm getting worried!" yelled Tyson as he paced back and forth. "Well you know how much they love each other, they'll probably on a romantic date."said Max as he got in bed. "Yeah, maybe you're right." said Tyson as he got in bed beside his lover.

What they didn't know was that Ray was off sleeping with a boy, and Kai was on a plane back home. Boy, are they clueless...

Akio: Did you like? Sorry we couldn't make it any longer. I just didn't want you guys to forget about me! So here it is. I'll try to not keep you guys waiting so long, ok? Please review, if you please, I'll accept flames!
