Summary: Rei is being abused by his father, rather than confiding in his friends and asking them for help, he hides it from the ones closet to him but there is one person that he cannot fool. But what will this person do to help his friend when Rei refuses to accept his help. ReixKai, what can I say I'm obsessed.
Nikki: wow 136 reviews, thanks guys TN Tiggris I checked out that site but for some reason I couldn't get onto it so it would be real great if you could E-Mail me that pic my E-Mail address is it's on my profile page, it sounds like a real cool pic and I'd really like to see it.

Bryan: I know this has got to be the longest you've ever stuck with anything
Nikki: thanks... wait
Tala: you love each other really
Nikki: You're delusional Tala
Tala: and your not?
Nikki: I didn't say that, well who is going to do the disclaimer for me today?
A.J: me and Brad brought Len (or Ren) Tao from shaman king to do it for you
Nikki: Yay Len, take it away (glomps Len)
Len: Get your grubby, mitts off of me you weirdo British floozy
Bryan: Hey, only I can bad mouth my cousin
Nikki: Yeah only Bryan and Tala and Kai and... ok you can't bad mouth me
Tala: see you do love each other

Nikki: great now who's going to do my disclaimer for me
Yoh: I'll do it, Nikki doesn't own beyblade but she does own Kyan and Norman so please don't steal them or you'll break her heart.
Nikki: that was beautiful Yoh, but Bryan's beating up your boyfriend for that wise crack joke he made about Tala's hair
Yoh: not again
Kai's POV
"What did you do to them, they're totally trashed!"
"Well you see we were training like you always say we should and this is how they ended up" I smiled at Rei as he stared down at Kenny, Kenny's reaction to the blades had been priceless. He had only just remodelled our blades and now he was having to do it again. Something about the look on his face was telling me that he wasn't best pleased.
"Kenny, just fix the blades or I'll have you doing push ups for the rest of your life" Kenny smiled up at me and placed the blades in his bag, he folded Dizzi down and tucked her under his arm.
"They'll be fixed by tomorrow morning" he stood up and started towards the door when he turned back to face us. "Kai, do you have any pain killers? I have the worst headache"
"Sorry Kenny, Tyson and Max took them all this morning" Kenny nodded and rubbed his head before disappearing down the corridor. I watched Rei as he walked over to the couch and sat down, he flinched and grabbed his side, I was really starting to worry about him. The bey battle earlier couldn't have helped things and now I was responsible for making his injuries worse. "You ok Rei?" I sat down next to him and tried to catch his gaze but he was just staring at the floor, not even acknowledging my existence. I sighed and rested my head against the back of the couch. Kenny wasn't the only one with a headache.
Waited so long, standing for you,
The world
beneath your feet.
Crumbling down, you come around,
To realize
what I can be!
I've paid my dooms and
I've earned my
kicks,
I'm taking the stage,
SPOTLIGHT SHINING ON ME!
I cringed at the loud noise as it blasted from the speakers on what to me seemed like the loudest noise known to man. I glanced up to see Tyson and Max waltzing to the music as they sung along, badly might I add.
Gonna
steal your thunder,
Coming up from under,
I got your number,
IM THE UNDERDOG!
Gonna stand your ground,
Turn your head
around,
I'm gonna take you down cos
IM THE UNDERDOG!
"TYSON TURN IT DOWN!" I looked over at Rei who was covering his ears with his hands in an attempt to silence the intolerably loud music.
"What'd you say Rei?"
"SHUT UP!" I stood up and growled at Tyson, he yelped slightly and lowered the level of the music before turning back and smiling at me. I shot him one of my 'don't-push-me' looks and he fell to his knees pleading with me to let him keep listening to the music and dancing with his now official koi.
Don't waste my time, play with my mind,
I
already know your destiny.
At the end of this race, I'm taking
your place,
For now and all eternity!
I've paid my dooms
and
I've earned my kicks,
I'm taking the stage,
SPOTLIGHT
SHINING ON ME!
"Oh please Kai, if we're going to be stuck here with you for God knows how long you're going to have to let us have some fun or we'll go crazy"
"Go? I was under the impression that you and Max were already crazy if not past it and into the realm of insane" I backed away as Max joined his koi on his knees and started to crawl towards me. I was never going to be able to put up with these lunatics, at the end of this storm I'd be taken away in a straight jacket by those men in the white suits after killing Tyson, Max and possibly Tala depending on what he had done on that day.
"Pleeease, Kai, just let us have five minutes of fun and we'll never bother you again" Tyson grabbed hold of my leg and started to hug it, I had to resist the urge to kick him away from me. I growled angrily when Max grabbed hold of my other leg and folded my arms tightly over my chest.
"If you let go of my legs I will let you listen to one song and one song alone"
"We love you Kai" they let go of my legs and ran over to the fireplace where they stood for a while waiting for the next song to begin.
Switchblade (A/N: Yes I am obsessed with beyblade songs)
Do what I got to
Vacate
I'm comin' right at you
Slow down before you take your last step
This is a test of the bumps and bruises that you know you get used to
I choose to run with my home crew
Lock down it's gonna be a blackout
Tyson took Max in his arms and began to lead him in a slow dance, I couldn't help but smile, it must feel wonderful to tell the person you love how you feel about them. It must be like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.
"Oh my God you got Kai to let you play music in his house" I glanced over at the door to see Tala leaning against the frame.
"I'm almost finished with your blades but I am in desperate need of a drink so please don't make me do any push..." I laughed when Tala grabbed hold of Kenny and started to slow dance with the young computer geek. I heard Rei laughing and turned to face him. I watched entranced as he swayed from side to the side to the rhythm of the song.
Now
it's your turn let me hear you shout
Yeah, Yeah
I'm gonna
teach you
Class in session
It's a long road
That you're
flexin' for
Above ground to do the things you used to
Cause
if you could live like me underground
Lonely sights and lonely
sounds
Could you fight the darkness all around
No way up and
always down
For me this is the only game in town
Action
Everything
is set to
Explode
Cause now it seems you got to
Reload
It's
time to go solo
Amped up
This place is gonna
blow
Shutdown
You're covered in dirt and stay down
Trouble
is your hurt now
The outback
This is what its all about
I spun him away from me and then brought him back into my body where I resumed with the slow dancing. I glanced over at Tyson and saw Max resting his head on his shoulder; I smiled when I saw Tala and Kenny. Kenny was protesting and ordering Tala to release him so that he could go and finish the work he had to do on Drigger and Dranzer. Tala wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention to him, but Kenny still protested with the red haired Russian who was now singing along to the song blasting from the stereo. I had to admit Tala had a pretty good singing voice. I sighed and pulled Rei closer to me, he was looking over at Tyson and Max so I don't think he noticed but I had.
Now
it's your turn let me hear you shout
Yeah, Yeah
I'm gonna
teach you
Class in session
It's a long road
That you're
flexin' for
Above ground to do the things you used to
Cause
if you could live like me underground
Lonely sights and lonely
sounds
Could you fight the darkness all around
No way up and
always down
For me this is the only game in town
Do
you want this
Break it down now
Can you feel this
This is
how we groove now
Can you live this
This is what we fly
now
This is how we get it goin'
Rei moved his hand to my shoulder and I spun him round once again before bringing him back into me for another round of slow dancing. I wasn't sure how long this had been going on for but neither of us had said anything in a while and then, when realization of what I was doing set in I felt incredibly nervous. I don't think I had ever felt nervous before but I sure as hell did now. I loosened my grip on the smaller boy but refused to let go of him completely. He must have noticed this because he stared up at me and shot me the cutest yet most confused look I had ever seen.
"Is everything ok Kai?" I smiled down at him and he blushed and looked down at the floor,
"Fine, are you ok?" He stared up at me, his eyes locked with mine and I couldn't break away, I wasn't even trying to. I smiled again, it was comforting to speak to him and see that he wasn't revolted by the fact that two men were dancing with each other. Maybe there was hope for us.
"May I cut in?" Tala smiled at Rei and then took hold of me as he danced me away from the Neko-jin. I growled slightly and turned to look at Tala he was smiling as he brushed a few stands of slate hair away from my eyes. Something was up.
Rei's POV
Could
you live like me underground
Lonely sights and lonely sounds
Could
you fight the darkness all around
No way up and always down
For
me this is the only game in town
For me this is the only game in
town
I frowned when I saw Tala stroke the side of Kai's face, I couldn't take seeing that, I turned around and walked into the kitchen. I slipped into the room and sat down at the table, I hated Tala at that moment. What was he up to? Did he have feelings for Kai? If not then why was he doing this? I rubbed my temples and tried to focus my thoughts on something else.
"Hey Rei, what's up?" I looked up to see Kenny sipping a glass of water, he looked shattered and I felt bad that he would have to stay up for the whole night working on our beyblades.
"Oh not much, you ok? You look tired"
"I feel it buddy"
"I'm sorry you have to work on our beyblades all night" he smiled and sat down next to me at the table
"It's ok Rei, I find working on Beyblades relaxes me, of course a throbbing hangover doesn't help when you're trying to remodel two of the strongest beyblades in the whole of beyblading." I smiled up at him and he smiled back, it was nice to talk with Kenny, I couldn't remember the last time the two of us had just sat down and talked to each other. He sighed and downed the rest of his drink "I wonder if I can make it across the lounge without Tala grabbing me?"
"You'll be fine, he's dancing with Kai, if you go quickly you just might make it" he smiled at me and placed his glass in the sink before walking out of the kitchen. So here I was, alone again, left with nothing but my thoughts. I looked round the room and saw a smoothie maker sat on the worktop. I had always liked smoothies even though I rarely got one at home, maybe every once in a while when I had threatened to tell my mom about being beaten. When I was younger my dad used to bribe me and tell me that I could have a smoothie but I could never tell mummy what he had done. I agreed, it seemed like the best choice at the time.
A few minutes later I had made myself a strawberry smoothie and was sat back at the table with a straw sipping away at the comforting beverage. In fact I had completely forgotten about how Tala had taken Kai away from me. Ok so I hadn't forgotten about that, but I was a lot calmer than I had been. I sighed and took another sip of the smoothie. I jumped when the door swung open and saw Kai stood in the doorway. He looked annoyed as he made his way over to the table and sat down across from me. I didn't speak, I figured that he wanted to be left to his thoughts but it was killing me not being able to talk with him. We sat in silence for a while but there was this annoying voice in my head telling me to ask him the question that I had been pondering over for so long.
"Kai," he looked up at me and my eyes caught his for a brief two seconds before I chose to stare at my drink "are you and Tala... together?" I looked up at him to see him burst out into a fit of laughter. I had expected him to say a lot of things but I had not expected for him to burst out into laughter. "What's so funny" he stopped laughing and looked up at me
"That's the funniest thing I've ever heard" I shot him a confused look and he smiled at me before continuing "No, me and Tala are nothing more than good friends" I was relieved for this and let out a long sigh. I tilted my head and took another sip of my drink. "What's that" I turned to see Kai sit down in the seat next to me, I had never seen the Russian look so confused and I found it endearing.
"It's a smoothie, haven't you ever had a smoothie before?"
"Yeah actually, we used to have them all the time in the abbey. Them and all the other fun sugary snacks that you can list" I smiled weakly at his sarcasm and stared down at my drink.
"I'm sorry, I only just realised how stupid that sounded" I looked up at him and he brushed a strand of raven hair away from my face.
"It's ok, you didn't mean anything by it"
"You could try some if you wanted"
"I'd like that" I slid the drink infront of him and studied him carefully as he took the straw into his mouth. I felt like everything was in slow motion as he drank the pink substance, I was captivated by him and everything that he did, was it possible to love someone so much that your life without them became a hollow shell. Of course it was, that's what love meant. I grabbed hold of my side as a sharp pain shot through it. "Rei?" Kai grabbed hold of me as I gripped my side hoping to reduce the pain but it wouldn't go away.
"It really hurts, more than any other cut" he took hold of my hand and removed it from my side. He gasped and I stared down at my trembling hand, crimson fluid coated it and I couldn't understand why it had started to bleed.
"Did you catch it on something?"
"All I've done today is the bey battle with you earlier" he turned away from me at the mention of the battle and I could tell that he felt guilty. "No Kai, it could have been anything" he turned back to face me and stood up
"Will you let me take a look at it?" I nodded and stood up next to him but that caused another bout of pain to shoot through my side. I started to fall to the floor but Kai grabbed hold of me and helped me back to my feet.
He helped me back to his room in silence, I knew that he still felt guilty and I hated that, the last thing that I had wanted was for Kai to feel like this was his fault. He removed the sash and the tunic and started to unwrap the bloodied bandages. He had them undone in about a minute and knelt down so that he could examine the cut. He traced it lightly and I cried out in pain.
"It's started healing around the edges, I think it was the bey battle earlier, when you hit against the wall, it caused it to tare" I searched for his gaze, trying to catch it with mine so that I could explain to him that it wasn't his fault. But he just knelt there staring at the cut, I felt so upset, I didn't want him to think that he had hurt me, I never wanted him to think that. "I'll get the bandages" he walked over to the other side of the room and searched through his draw for the first aid kit. I sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed, I glanced around the room and noticed that Kyan wasn't there. I'll be honest and say I missed the little cat that always greeted me with a friendly meow.
"Where's Kyan?" I asked as Kai walked back over to the bed, he placed the black case on the bed and started to look for the bandages.
"Probably annoying Tala" I smiled at the thought of the sweet animal causing Tala grief and looked at Kai when he sat down next to me. He held in his hand a cotton pad doused with antiseptic. He carefully placed it on my side and dabbed it ever so slightly. I glanced over at the nightstand and saw that it was half past eleven, the day had gone by so quickly. I looked back over at Kai as he placed the cotton pad in the bin and reached for the bandages. He cautiously wrapped the fresh bandages around me and I fell into his touch. There was something amazing about these moments, not much was said but I enjoyed his company never the less. I shivered as a cold breeze swept through the room and watched as Kai put everything back into the box, which he then slid under his bed. "Better?"
"Much" I smiled at him and stood up off the bed, I rubbed my arms lightly trying to give myself more heat as another icy cold breeze wound its way through the room. I jumped slightly when I felt something slip over my shoulders and turned to see Kai stood behind me holding the silk cover onto my shoulders. "Kai?" I stared back at him questioningly as we walked back over to the bed.
"You looked cold" I sat down on the bed and stared up at him, I finally caught his gaze and allowed myself to stare up into his beautiful crimson orbs. I yawned and lay back onto the bed. I closed my eyes and began to fall asleep when I felt the weight of the bed shift. I felt two arms wrap around my waist and glanced over my shoulder to see Kai lying next to me. I rolled over in his arms and stared up into his eyes, he smiled down at me and stroked the side of my face.
"Kai" I whispered quietly as he pulled me closer to him, I stared up at him and felt his breath on my lips, I couldn't take it anymore, I needed him. I lifted my hand to his face and brushed away a few strands of slate hair. He smiled at me when I started to trace the blue triangles and leant down to lightly kiss the top of my head, I smiled up at him and heard him whisper into my ear.
"Rei, I have something to tell you, something that should have been said a long time ago" I titled my head, confused by what he ment. He smiled at me and closed his eyes as he lent down to my lips, I closed my eyes and pushed into him, capturing his lips with mine. I felt his hands move to the back of my head as his tongue swirled around inside my mouth, I had been waiting for this for so long and now it was actually happening. I pushed into him deepening the sensation as my tongue brushed up against his lips asking for entrance. He allowed me to enter the oral cavity and I couldn't help but think about how fabulous he tasted, how well worth the wait this had been. How amazing it felt to be so close to him.
I ran my hands through his two toned hair as our tongues resumed the battle for entry. I backed down and let him search my mouth, his hand trailed along my neck and I relaxed into his touch. We broke away when the need for air became too overwhelming. He lightly kissed along my neck and I moaned in pleasure, I frowned when he backed away and saw him pass me a questioning look.
"I'm sorry" I stared into his eyes and brushed my hand down the side of his face, tears were welling in his eyes as he turned to leave but I wasn't going to let him go this time. I grabbed hold of his arm and he turned back to face me, tears had started to slip down my face as I began my speech.
"Don't be, Kai... I... I... I love you" I watched him for a while but all he did was stand there staring down at me. My heart was pounding in my chest and I was terrified of rejection. I held back the loud sobs but couldn't stop the clear tears from slipping down my cheeks. He smiled warmly and lay back down next to me on the bed. He gently stroked away the tears on my face and wrapped his arms around my waist, he pulled my closer to him and kissed away the fresh tear that had escaped from my left eye.
"I love you too Rei" he fiddled with the red clip in my hair and removed it letting my long raven hair flow out across the bed, I smiled when he stroked through it and stared up at him as he twirled a few strands around his finger. He smiled again and lightly kissed my ear as I snuggled closer to him. I placed my head on his chest and listened to his heart as it quietly pounded away in his chest. I wanted to stay locked in this moment forever but I couldn't help but wonder what tomorrow would bring for me and my koi, yeah Kai was my koi and I loved him more than anything else.
Nikki: Maybe I should just point out that this is NOT the end, can I just repeat? This is NOT the end there is more on the way so please continue to read there is still lots more fluff to come and...
