Title: A Different Point of View.
Chapter Title: Serenading Sun.
Disclaimer: If I owned Beyblade it would consist of lots of Rei and Kai making out. Which it doesn't therefore I do not own it.
Rating: PG
Author's Notes: The third instalment of this odd Arch thing. Well it has to be odd coming from me doesn't it? Anyway I'm sorry for the wait; I was dragged off on holiday where there was no computer! Bleh, but I'm back and I'm going to shut up now and give you the story.
He glows in the sun as well. Kai noted this discovery as he sat watching Rei from his place up in the tree. The sun made Rei glow in a different way. In the moonlight he looked almost earthly as if he was some god that should be worshiped. Now he looked normal, or as normal as a beauty such as Rei Kon could. He seemed to glow with life. With happiness, with joy. At this moment in time he was propped up against the cabin wall. Keeping one eye on Max, Tyson and Kenny fool around while reading his book. He came across a confusing bit in the book. Kai could tell by the way his brow furrowed and he seemed to bury his nose into the centre of the volume. Long deft fingers turned the page, tanned skin cackling with energy. An energy that was invisible yet great. It circled the Chinese lad overshadowing most of his peers without meaning to. Not Kai of course but then again no one ever did. Rei, however, was powerful without knowing it which drew Kai to him even more. Rei drummed his fingers against the back of his book, apparently the story was nerve-racking. His fangs were gleaming in the light, poking over his pink lips which were twisted slightly in nervousness. He was obviously enjoying his book. His eyes, a rich amber colour were something that Kai worshipped. They were so enticing; you could get trapped in them forever. Locked down in the sheer beauty that was Rei. Yes, Rei was beautiful in fact he was the most gorgeous creature on the earth.
Rei seemed to realise that he was being watched as he looked up and glanced around. Kai tore his gaze away from him, determined not to be caught. But apparently Rei knew already as moments later the boy was sitting across from him.
"Hey." The greeting was quiet yet happy. Not happy as in 'Tyson happy' but joyful. It sent shivers up Kai's spine.
"You having fun up here?" Rei asked, treating Kai with a half-smile. A slight twitch of the corner of his lips in a rather bashful manner. It always made Kai want to melt on the spot. But he didn't. Sitting down he waited expectantly for an answer. Which Kai found himself giving.
"Escaping."
Rei nodded, knowing just who and what he was escaping. Tyson, Max and Kenny and the normal everyday emotions that tried to claim him.
"Would you like to come round town with me?"
Kai rose an eyebrow; he knew what Rei was saying. 'You can be normal, you can appreciate the small things, you can learn to like them. I'll show you. You'll enjoy yourself.' The odd thing was, was that Kai found himself realising that Rei was right. He knew that a few hours spent with Rei around town would be cherishable hours. Hours, in which he could learn new things, things about the odd emotional world he had cut himself off from.
The bluenette found himself torn. His everlasting desire to leave the world of emotions and pain tugging at him. But another part of him, obviously infected with Rei's boyish charms, wanted to learn more. To experience it with the delightful young man sitting beside him.
Rei always did that. Made him long for the things that he had never wanted until now. The feeling that Rei seemed to be dominating his thoughts and actions sprung up and Kai didn't like it. He needed to be control, to be on top. Rei would only hinder that. He was from a different world entirely. Perhaps Rei was meant to be king of his world but Kai wouldn't be. Because he couldn't understand Rei's world. He had to be the ruler of his own world. Which was why he shrugged and ignored the boy till he left.
I'll learn and maybe one day I'll come to stand by your side and help you rule your world.
Maybe . . .
You like? Ah review and tell me. And if you don't review anyway. Cos I too have to learn and I can't do so if people don't point out my mistakes.
