The two boy's walked along towards the doctor's. Kai was wearing his usual outfit, which he wore during the first year he was with the Bladebreakers, and it made him seem like he was untouchable, while King wore a black t-shirt and jeans.
/How did I let him talk me into this?/ King asked himself, knowing that he could have argued his way out of going to the doctors; /And Kai is paying for this! But there has to be a catch to this.........../
Kai wasn't thinking too deeply, as he was unsure of King; /Right, I hardly know the guy, asides from the fact he destroyed my blade, was beaten up pretty badly, and dislikes Tyson almost as much as I do. He's not that bad either as a blader, and personality wise, he's not hyper active, like Max, but he doesn't swing both ways, like Rei. He knows what fun is, but he doesn't seem too bothered about it, as his goals are what he does for fun................. But his goals were stealing, and he doesn't want that any more. He grew out of it, I guess./
Kai stopped in front of the surgery, and King looked at him, wanting to know what to do.
"Come on," Kai grabbed King's arm and pulled him inside.
There was only one person in front of them, an elderly gentleman, who appeared to have a hard time hearing what the stressed nurse was trying to tell him. It could have been because she didn't have a very loud voice.
"Maybe we should just go?" King said, he was hopeful, but to his dismay Kai just walked up to the gentleman and said in a clear voice what the woman was trying to tell him. In return the gentleman said his thank you's to them both and left. Which Kai dragged King over to the desk.
"May I help you?" The nurse, who was older than the other stressed out nurse, who was given a break.
"Yes, can we make an appointment with the nurse?" Kai asked, and King felt slightly miffed.
/Is he implying that I don't know what to ask for?/ King thought to himself, and then realised what Kai had asked for; /A nurse?!/
"She's free in about ten minutes, would you mind waiting?" The older woman asked them, and Kai nodded; "Oh, and what is it for?"
"Cuts," Kai replied, and the woman nodded.
"May I have you name?" She didn't look just at Kai, she looked at both of them.
King realised that she never assumed it was Kai would needed to see the nurse, and he felt that was a good thing for her to do.
"King," The tanned boy spoke for the first time.
"Okay, would you mind waiting in the waiting room? And she'll be right with you," The nurse said, and the two nodded, then walked into the waiting room.
"My god........" King muttered.
The place looked very depressing, beige was the only thing you could describe it. The ceilings were high, but the décor left you feeling like mush. The wall paper was peeling away, the carpet was most likely cream (King decided that who ever decided to make the carpet cream should be shot, this is a doctor's surgery after all!) and now a strange colour, as it had mud and other things mixed into it. Then there was the chairs, most of the seats looked nice, they were attached to the wall, all at the same height, only problem was that the fabric was wearing away from the corner's and the colour was fading. Also the lights did not do the room justice.......... If the room looked good, as it didn't it didn't make the place seem any better.
"I'm glad I'm not sick," King muttered to Kai.
"So am I........ This is the kind of place you'd slit you're wrists in," Kai whispered back, and King laughed. Not an out loud laugh, a quiet laugh that would seem to be more appropriate in a place like this.
"I wish a radio was on," King whispered, and Kai smiled.
"Yea, because hearing the radio would make people happy," Kai said; "It might distract the doctors,"
"So? It would distract the patients," King pointed out, and Kai nodded.
"King?" A nurse, with dark brown hair, green eyes and a natural complexion said, and King stood up, looking at Kai.
"What?" Kai asked him.
"I have a feeling you may slit your wrist's in here," King told the pale boy, dragging the pale boy with him.
"Oh, its wonderful isn't it?" The nurse said sarcastically and took them to her room.
"Yea, it's great," King replied with the same amount of sarcasm.
"Let me go back......" Kai said.
"Please take a seat," The nurse told King, who complied; "Now, my name is Nurse Dory, I'll be your nurse for the next ten minutes,"
"Hello Nurse Dory, I'm King, I'll be your patient for the next nine minutes," King told her, and she laughed.
"Hello, my name is Kai, I'd like to slit my wrists," Kai added, and Dory and King laughed; "I'm being serious,"
"I have heard you've been cut, which means I'll have to give you an injection, just to make sure you don't get any unwanted infections," Dory told King, who nodded; "Do your wounds need checked over at all?"
"Kai?" King looked at the pale boy, who was looking all over the room, as if wary.
"Yes?" Kai snapped.
"His wounds, are they needing to be checked?" Dory asked Kai.
"Yea, I'm not very good at first aid," Kai replied, and then his eyes darted about the room.
"Here, have a seat outside," Dory told Kai, who took a swivel chair, and went outside; "And please try not to play around on it. The doctor's hate it when that happens,"
"I don't think Kai knows what fun is, so you're okay on that," King assured her.
"Oh good," Dory told him with a smile.
Kai never said anything, as King unwrapped each bandage, taking off his t-shirt to get to the worst one on his chest.
It did only take about nine minutes for the nurse to do her thing and King came out, with a small piece of cotton wool on his inner elbow where he had been given an injection. Kai stood up and put the seat back in, then walked to the desk to pay.
Once outside, King spoke;
"What was up with you?"
"What?" Kai asked, not knowing what King was talking about.
"In the nurse's office, why were you so........ Nervous?" King had to look for the word.
"Because......." Kai really didn't want to speak about it.
"And don't try to take the conversation some other way, Queen did that and so I am immune to it," King told Kai, who pointed to a crowd; "What's that?"
"Don't know, want to find out?" Kai asked.
"No, not really, now...... Answer the question," King demanded, and Kai sighed.
"Come on, lets get something to eat, then I'll tell you," Kai said and walked towards a café, one that wasn't very busy, but had loud music.
As they sat down and ordered something, King looked at Kai expectedly. The pale boy sighed, and ran a hand through his two toned his hair.
"You heard about Bio Volt and them trying to take over the world?" Kai asked King.
"You grandfather was in control of it, you became part of it............." King trailed off, not sure that he had hit the nail on the head.
"You know how I said I was trained to have no emotions?" Kai asked, and King nodded; "Well, there was more to it than that. I was injected every few day's with some drug that would make me numb, emotionally. I never felt anything. I used to get it every day, then it was every few days, and then I never had them. But the first time I had them.......... I hated needles; most people don't like them, but to go through that every day......... And half the time they had to tie me up to do it, I was given it more often because of it. I wound up hating needles.......... Just an irrational fear," Kai paused; he had opened up, again to King.
/Why do I tell him these things?! I admitted to him that Tyson was better than me, now I'm telling him my biggest fear? What am I on?/ Kai thought to himself.
"It's not an irrational fear. They wanted you to fear the needle, that was the drug might not work, but the fear would, it would trigger something in your mind to stop feeling things, hide your emotions," King said with a shrug; "Its okay to fear things. But most of the time you have to remember that things are there for your own good as well,"
"I don't want to fear," Kai said, glaring at the table top.
"Well, that would be trying to be unhuman," King said with a shrug; "Everyone has fears, some people fear wasps, or spiders, or worms, or birds, or ugly dogs like pit bulls........... Or the common one, needles,"
"Oh, then what do you fear?" Kai asked King.
"Being lonely. And spiders," King said with a nod.
The song that was now playing was Savage Garden's Affirmation.
"I like this song," King said; "It's probably true, the grass is no green on the other side,"
"Trust me, its not," Kai assured him, and the white haired boy laughed.
"Right, now; what's Tyson's fear?" King asked, with an evil smirk on his face.
"Well.........." Kai began to tell King the other Bladebreaker's fears.
XOXOXOXOXOXOX
The sun was setting and two boys were running away from a house when they heard a loud scream. They began to laugh and tried to run faster, but their own bodies would not let them, so they turned the corner and sat on the ground, trying to gain their breath.
"I can't believe that was Tyson's fear!" King gasped out, and continued to laugh.
"Yea, well, he will probably blame Max or Rei on it. He doesn't believe I have a sense of humour," Kai said with a slight laugh.
King managed to get his breath back; "I'm sure he'll find the humour in the situation," King laughed a bit; "I know I did,"
"Heh, we had better get back," Kai looked at the sky, noticing that the stars were coming out, even though the moon was not.
"You know Kai, I wish this was the kind of life I had. I loved Queen and all the memories......... But this........." King didn't finish his sentence.
"It seems better. I was always of jealous of Tyson and Max, their lives are so............ Uncomplicated," Kai told the tanned boy who nodded.
"What about Rei?" King asked, as they walked towards Kai's home.
"Well, he had this complication when he left his home............" Kai proceeded to tell King about Rei's 'betrayal' of the White Tiger's.
XOXOXO
Beige - I have a bone to pick with this colour, I don't like it. I have never liked it, I don't even like it as a top! Its not a nice colour, why would you wear it? Why? Why?!
Also the inner elbow, I have no idea what you call that bit........ So I just called it that.
