Thanks to all that reviewed that chapter. I'm really sorry it took so long to update. I had writer's block for a while, then school interfered a lot, but now I'm back with more ideas!!! Oooo I have a question. I know how to end this story, and it's not pretty. Um, do you guys want a sequel then, for them to have a happy ending? I already have some ideas.
Oh, a certain reviewer asked what kind of clothes these people are wearing. With the Beybladers and co., they are wearing what they wore in G-Revolution, except for Rei, who is wearing his clothes from Vforce, because I like that one the best heehee. As for Amira, she usually wears flared jeans, with the t-shirt (occasional sweatshirt) and running shoes. If she changes to anything different, then I will be sure to say so in the upcoming chapters ok? On to the story! Please review when you're done!! Peace out!
-Time for the holidays!! -
"Come on guys! It's time to decorate!" Hilary exclaimed, trying to hang some wreaths in the hallway. All the boys groaned, but Amira nodded happily and grabbed a chair to help her friend. Seeing this, Rei quickly started to help out, much to Amira's disappointment. She groaned under her breath and continued hanging stuff onto the walls.
Finally, Hilary had persuaded the rest of the guys to start decorating the tree. Christmas was only a few days away, and everyone wanted it to be absolutely perfect. The boys groaned as they started to get ornaments out of their designated boxes.
Amira sighed, looking at the scene in front of her. Everybody was jollier than they had been. It must have been the effect of Christmas.
Tyson and Hilary had finally admitted their feelings for each other, after long counseling from Amira. They were now a happy couple and very much in love. Amira loved to see them like that. All those old romance movies had finally paid off and her friends were happy.
Even though she and Kai were secretly together now, Rei was still being persistent (sorry Rei fans, but I don't think you'll like what's going to happen. He's going to have a happy ending though, don't worry). He still tried to flirt with Amira, but without any success on his part. Every time he tried, he could never get her full attention. She was always doing something else or off in la-la land, dreaming about you know who. Amira was quite surprised that Rei had not given up on her. She thought that he would've thrown the towel in a while ago.
Even thought nobody else knew, Amira and Kai knew their feelings for each other. After that night after truth or dare, they always shot grins and smiles at each other whenever possible. They didn't think they were ready to announce to the world that they were together just yet. Mind you, it wasn't that obvious either, not like Rei's attempts.
Amira quickly got off of the chair that she was standing on, and rushed into the kitchen. She came back with glasses and a carton of eggnog. All the guys just stared at her. She just giggled at their bewildered expressions.
"Guys, calm down. It's not spiked." Then she chuckled to herself and put the contents on the table. The boys slowly approached the table with caution. They slowly examined the carton, just to make sure. Hilary and her friend just watched, as Tyson smelled the carton for alcohol. They both just burst out laughing. "Um, I think it's pretty safe guys." Amira reassured them, as they slowly poured the eggnog into the glasses, one by one.
Amira loved the sight of her new friends, having a good time and all, but then her smile started the droop. She knew that Christmas was just a few days away, but so was her flight back to Canada. She didn't want to leave her friends. She wanted to see her family, but she didn't know when she would see all these guys again.
'When will I see them again? What about Kai? He's so perfect. I think it was meant to be for us. I don't know when I will see him again. Maybe…never..' She could feel her eyes start to swell up like boiled sweets(British term…heehee and I have no clue what it means!) She quickly ran back into the kitchen to get herself a tissue. Little did she know that a certain someone was watching her and had followed her into the kitchen.
"Amira? What's wrong this time?" She turned from the sink, all watery-eyed and came face to face with Kai. She didn't want to yell at Kai right now. She didn't want to look at him, because she would be reminded of that terrible reminder of leaving him. She turned back to the sink and blew her nose.
"I'm fine Kai, go back to the others."
"I'm not going anywhere until you tell me what wrong." His voice was stern, but not harsh in the least. He wanted to find out the answer to help, but he didn't want to frighten the girl. His comments weren't really helping the situation either.
Amira's eyes couldn't stop watering. She couldn't bear the thought of leaving, not here, not now. She didn't want to face the one she loved either, it would only result in more crying.
"Kai, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about anything. I'm fine."
"You're not fine dammit! I want to know what the problem is!" he screeched, making the young girl jump back in surprise. Amira felt something build up inside of her. It wasn't anger or rage. It was a hurt emotion and she just didn't understand it.
"I'M FINE!!!!!!" she screeched back, making Kai change his expression to extreme concern. She got her coat from the hook and quickly and brushed past the Russian, heading for the front door. He was about to grab for her arm, but she brushed it off, and made for a run. Kai made for a break to go after her, but Hilary stopped him at the front door.
"Kai? What just happened back there? Would you care to explain?" she asked, her voice full of concern as well. Kai looked around at the rest of his team. All faces were full of concern, except for one, Rei's. His face just looked plain angry. He looked like her could rip Kai apart if he wanted to. He quickly got up and made his way to the Russian.
"Did you do something to her Kai? If you did…"
"I didn't do anything Rei!" Just let me go to her!" he screeched, making the Chinese boy jump back. Hilary also backed off, making the doorway a clear entrance. Kai thanked them all, and rushed out the door, breaking into a fast sprint.

Amira had come to a small bridge that crossed the river, not far from the dojo. She took off her coat and sat down, leaning against the wall of the railing. She buried her head in her hands and began to sob. She didn't want any of this to happen. She wanted to stay with her friends, be with Kai. She shouldn't have yelled at his like that, it wasn't in her nature anyways.
She got up, still leaning against the rails. She looked at the landscape around her. A small flurry had started, and it was a beautiful scene. All of the houses were decorated with little lights and all the trees inside of them were decorated. Then she noticed a small figure on one side of the river.
It was Kai. He didn't have a coat or anything, not that he needed one. He seemed to be frantically worried and seemed to be looking for something.
"Could he be looking for me? I don't want to leave him just yet. I want to be in his arms, just one more time." She whispered to herself, wiping away the last of her crystal tears. She noticed that Kai had spotted her and was running as fast as he could to the bridge.
He ran up the bridge and caught Amira in his arms and hugged her tightly.
"Oh Amira. I was so worried. I thought something might have happened to you." He whispered in her ears, making her shiver. She nodded and rested her head on his strong shoulders. They stood there for some time, neither of them wanted this moment to end.
"Kai? You don't have a jacket. You know that right?" She asked curiously.
"Don't need one. You're warmth and happiness is all I need." He smiled down at her as she flashed him her famous grin. "Are you alright now?"
"I'm fine Kai. Now that you're here, I'm fine."
"Well that's good to hear. Do you want to go back now? The others will get worried." He whispered once more into her ear.
"Can I be in your arms for a little longer? I feel so safe that way." She whispered back, getting a small smirk from the Russian.
"Whatever you want, my love." Kai said, as he gave her a quick kiss on the forehead and held her once more in his arms.
The two of them stood on that bridge for quite some time. They were both happy to be with each other, and didn't have a care in the world. The stood there as snow started to fall, and the scenery started to look like a Christmas card.
Wow, that was a long chapter. It didn't take that long to write because when I get into a lot of mush, it seems to flow better. Being like Amira, I watch way too many romance movies, and the scene with Kai and Amira on the bridge is usually a common and classic scene in most movies. Did you like that chapter? Please tell me what you think in your review!!
