Will You…?

Hello again! We are back from Lyme Regis (hurrah!) and are extremely pleased to see the 29 reviews you guys gave us! We are over the moon with how well this story is doing.

Right, we'll answer your questions then we will get on with it.

Lazyfifilazy: The Notting hill line was 'Kisses like a nymphomaniac on death row.' We thought it was perfect for Kai to say!

Animeandaia: Will there be more Yuri/Bryan? Well that is the question. We don't want to give too much away. You see we want Yuri to have his fun with Brad Pitt guy first, but after that it is VERY, VERY possible. So basically we just gave it away.

Hyperness: Yes Tyson and Max are together but were not really gonna write about it much. Yes we are gonna write about wedding and, depending on reviews, possibly a sequel about life as a married couple!

A dragon's crystal: Basically as this chapter will explain Yuri has a bit of a thing for Bryan, and accidentally 'moaned' his name when he was in bed with one of Bryan's friends, although knowing Yuri's sexual tendencies they probably weren't in a bed!

A Dog, A Late Night Drive and A Heck of a Lot of Slobber!

"Right, are you ready? You've got your car keys; you know where you're going?"

"Yes mother. But I still don't know why I have to do all this. I just want to ask him to marry me." Yuri was just about to open the door but as Kai said this he closed it again and looked at him seriously.

"Listen Kai, this is probably the most important thing you'll ever ask Rei. It has to be perfect. He is, and always will be, a sucker for romance and if you do this right it will mean even more to him." Kai nodded.

"I suppose you're right."

"I'm always right. Now, get out there and propose like you've never proposed before."

"I haven't ever proposed before."

"That's not the point. Now go." Yuri reopened the door and pushed the bluenette outside. "And don't forget to call me after you've asked him!"

A few minutes later, Kai pulled up outside their house and hit the horn a few times to get Rei's attention. While he waited, he nervously checked his hair in the mirror and breathed deeply. This was it. He was going to do it. There was no turning…

"KAI! What are you doing?" Kai opened his eyes to find Rei leaning in through the open window looking at him as though he'd just grown an extra head.

"Oh… umm nothing. Wanna come for a drive?" Again Rei gave him a funny look.

"Kai are you sure you're okay?"

"Yeeeeeeees. Why?"

"It's one o'clock in the morning," Rei said raising an eyebrow questioningly.

"Stupid Yuri and his stupid ideas…"

"What was that?"

"Nothing! So are coming or what?"

"O.K. Err… should I wear anything special." Kai smirked.

"Just put a coat on, you don't want the Wicked Witch of the West phoning the police again," he said, referring to the old woman next door. Rei's eyes widened suddenly.

"That was an accident! I didn't mean for my towel to fall down. Besides I was only on the front door step it's not as if I was running down the street!"

"Yeah but you didn't really have to wave. She thought you were flashing." But topless Rei was already walking back towards the house to fetch a coat.

"Don't peek!"

"Okay, okay. Just don't let go of my hand I'll probably fall over." Kai turned him around and held his hand over Rei's eyes.

"This is why we're out at one o'clock in the morning," he whispered, taking his hand away. Rei stared in amazement at the sight that met his eyes. They were stood on a viewpoint overlooking Moscow and the river. From there the hustle and bustle of the city was barely noticeable and the street lamps were the only source of light. He felt Kai wrap his arms around his waist and smiled slightly.

"Kai… it's…"

"Beautiful, I know. Now come on," Kai said lifting him up and sitting him on the car bonnet. He jumped up himself and they lay back against the windscreen. 'It's now or never Kai.' He took a deep breath and put his hand in his pocket.

"Umm… Rei?"

"Hmm?" He searched in his other pocket getting a little worried at this point.

"I was wondering… oh shit."

"What?!" 'This is probably the most important thing you'll ever ask Rei. It has to be perfect.' He heard Yuri's voice in his head and sighed.

"I… I can't find my car keys," he stuttered, saying the first thing that came into his head.

"Kai they're in your hand!" He looked down at his hand and mentally cursed the car keys to hell.

"Oh…oh yeah."

"Are you sure you're okay?" However, before he could answer a ring tone could be heard blasting from the phone in Kai's pocket. Rei rolled his eyes at Kai's grin. "Alright, what is it today?"

"Wait for it." He held up his hand to silence Rei. Eventually, the chorus of 'Smooth Criminal' sounded from the phone. Kai smirked. "You've gotta love good old Jackson."

"Hel-"

"You left the ring! YOU LEFT THE BLOODY RING! How stupid can you get?!"

"Sorry, I think you've got the wrong number." He cut off the phone and turned back to Rei. "So, whe-"

"Kai, that was Yuri,"

"Was it?" Kai asked nervously. "It didn't sound like him."

"Yeah, it was though. His name came up on the screen."

"Oh, he was probably drunk or something"

"Right." Rei shook his head at the Russian's strange behaviour. He wrapped his arms around Kai and sighed. "I love you Kai, even if you are a bit of a freak."

"I've given up on men!" There was a shocked silence as Kai and Rei stared at the red head.

"Right, so we are here at eight thirty in the morning because you've given up on men?" Kai checked sitting back on the sofa. "Or do you take pleasure in waking us up at the crack of dawn?"

"Yes and yes, but that is not the point, I'm going to get a dog." There was another stunned silence.

"Are you serious?" Rei asked as Kai lay down using his lap as a pillow.

"Of course I am, we're going to pick it in a minute."

"Oh god…"

"Yuri, you have to give a dog a lot of attention, not just a bowl of food every now and then," Rei told him stroking Kai's hair. Kai himself appeared to have fallen asleep.

"I know all that but it's a bit lonely here on my own and I just though it would be nice to have someone to talk to," Yuri sighed trying his best to look innocent.
"So this has nothing to do with the fact that the Brad Pitt guy has a dog," Kai asked, a small smirk on his pale lips.

"Damn it Kai, you're too good." At this Rei grinned too.

"And I thought you we're being serious."

"You two can laugh all you want but I am going to pick this dog today whether you like it or not," he said, putting on his coat.

"Yuri, when… or should I say if you get Brad Pitt guy, what exactly is going to happen to this dog? Actually, don't bother answering that. I know what'll happen to it. WE'LL END UP LOOKING AFTER IT!" Kai shouted after Yuri who was now heading for the door. Noticing this, Rei quickly got up off the couch forgetting about the Russian on his lap. With a thud Kai hit the floor, not for the first time that day either.

"Thanks for that."

"Not a problem. Now get you're coat, we've got to stop him."

One Hour Later

"What about this one?" Yuri asked reaching out to stroke a cute looking dog at the edge of the pen. However, as he did, it began barking and jumping around frantically. "Okay maybe not." Kai knelt down next to Rei and looked at the puppies that were chasing each other around the pen.

"That one's pretty cute."

"They all look the same," Kai said, trying to work out which one Rei was pointing to, a confused look crossing his features. "Apart from that fat one over there; I think it might have run into a wall or something." Rei rolled his eyes as Kai jumped back to avoid the wrath of the mad dog that Yuri had tried to stroke earlier. As he did, he noticed a small white husky in the corner, the only puppy that was alone.

"That one," he said pointing out the dog. "It's really cute."

"Aww! He's like Kai!" Yuri cried when he spotted him, earning him a glare from the bluenette in question. Rei picked up the puppy that was not much bigger than his hand. As he did so the dog licked his face.

"Awww, it is Kai."

"No, that is a girl."

"No Kai, it's a dog," Yuri smirked.

"No, it's a girl dog, a… erm, a-"

"Bitch," Rei suggested.

"That's the one."

Three hours later, Yuri, Kai and Rei, were back on the sofa, heads tilted looking at the puppy that was still nameless. The dog cocked his head and stared back at the three of them, not moving from where it was sat on the rug.

"Definitely looks more like a Bitch!"

"Kai, I am not calling my dog Bitch!"

"But it's such a good name, Rei agrees with me," Kai tried, turning to him for help.

"I think you should call it Kai."

"We've been through this already, it's a girl."

"Bitch."

"Whatever, the point is it should be called Bitch. It's meant to be called Bitch. Look. BITCH!" Kai shouted causing the dog to immediately start running around madly. "You see."

"Babe," Yuri stated suddenly.

"Okay, I know we're friends and all, but that's taking it a tad too far," Rei said backing away from him slightly.

"A tad?" Kai murmured under his breath.

"No, call the dog Babe."

"You can't call the dog ba-" Kai started. However, he was interrupted as Rei jumped up from the sofa and frantically began searching in his pockets.

"Shit! Bugger, bastard, wank…knob, arse…" he shouted, waving his arms, desperately searching for his coat and another curse.

"Tit."

"TIT!" He cried, taking Kai's suggestion. "Give me the car keys."

"Well since you asked nicely…" He threw him the keys and watched Rei put on his coat.

"I promised Tyson I'd take him to the airport to fetch Max fifteen minutes ago."

"You'll be alright. Planes are always delayed. Just don't go through the city centre, it'll be chaos at this time," Yuri stated helpfully as he watched Kai lie down again. "Get your feet off the sofa," he ordered, smacking him on the head.

"Hang on a minute," Kai said, putting his feet on Yuri just to annoy the red-head. "Why are you taking Tyson to the airport?"

"He locked his keys in the car with the spare set, but he lost the spares at some party a couple of days ago so now he can't get into his car." Kai laughed evilly at Tyson's stupidity but stopped immediately when Yuri hit him on the head again.

"Don't laugh; the poor bastard had to walk the four miles home."

"You laughed like a maniac when I told you," Rei said rolling his eyes at him. "Anyway, I'm going. See you later."

"Ahem." Rei turned around to find Kai tapping his cheek suggestively. Yuri shook his head as Rei gave him a quick kiss before making his way to the door.

"Oh please."

"You're just jealous," Kai smirked, sticking his tongue out. A few seconds later they heard the door slam.

"Come on you we've got to go shopping," Yuri ordered pulling him off the sofa.

"Again?" Kai whined.

"No, food shopping. I'll explain why on the way."

"You live with China's equivalent of Master Chef and we're using…" Yuri picked up one of the empty jars from the worktop and read the label, "Uncle Ben's Stir Fry sauce."

"Just shove a load of different sauces in a wok and no one will notice," Kai stated pouring the third jar of Stir Fry sauce in the wok. "It'll taste just as good as the real thing, trust me."

"Whatever. Give me another fortune, I'm running out of ideas," Yuri said, nodding at the strips of paper at the table. After seeing his attempt at pancakes a few days ago, Kai had told Yuri that if he came anywhere near the food he'd be wearing it. So, the red-head was sat at the kitchen table writing fortunes for the cookies.

"I really don't like this idea. Don't you think it's a bit cheesy?" Kai asked as he began cooking the packet noodles.

"Of course it isn't. Anyone who's anyone's doing it. Rei opens his cookie and there's the ring. It's perfect."

"Yeah but-"

"No buts. Now, where's the ring, I'll do that now." Kai shook his head and pointed at the sideboard.

"It's over there." Yuri jumped off his stool and looked around where Kai had told him to.

"Are you sure you put it here, I can't find it."

"Yeeeeeeees."

"Well it's definitely not here now." He glanced nervously at Kai who turned around quickly.

"It has to be in here somewhere," he stated, trying his best to keep calm as he began searching with Yuri. Just as they crawled under the table and began searching on the floor, the door creaked open and Babe/Bitch/Kai stumbled into the room pushing the small black ring box along with its nose.

"Clever Babe," Yuri cooed stroking the puppy.

"The ring… isn't here." Yuri stared at Kai in disbelief.

"You're joking?"

"Err, no." Yuri and Kai both turned to look at the dog.

"No way." As if in answer to the question the husky bared its teeth, growling at them and revealing the silver band.

"Oh God."

"Oh God, oh God, oh God." As if life wasn't brilliant enough already, the sweet scent of burning noodles reached their nostrils.

"Right, noodles: don't burn, dog: give me the ring."

"Kai, I know your conversational skills have improved an all but I seriously doubt you've mastered the art of talking to the dog yet, or the noodles for that matter."

"Yuri, ring, dog, mouth, BIG disaster!" Kai said pointing at each one for effect.

"Right, me Yuri, you Kai, that Dog, them BURNING NOODLES!" Yuri spoke slowly mocking Kai's incapability of dealing with a crisis.

"This is not funny."

"No, right, of course not. This is a situation that must be handled in a calm and orderly fashion… listen you stupid dog give us that ring!" To their complete and utter amazement, Babe spat out the said ring onto Yuri's palm along with a heck of a lot of saliva.

"Thank the God- oh bugger," Kai cursed as he hit his head off the table.

"Ewww! Dog slobber! Dog slob- ow!" Yuri cried making the same mistake Kai had made a few seconds earlier. "Okay, we really should get from underneath the table." Without banging their heads this time, they crawled out from under the table and stood up.

"Right, you go and wash the dog slobber of your hands; I'll go and save the noodles."

"Good thinking Batman," Yuri smirked before remembering that he did in fact have dog saliva on his hand. He rushed to the sink and washed off the ring and his hands, being careful not to drop it down the sink as they already had enough things to worry about at that present moment in time.

"Kai, I'm home!" Obviously they didn't have enough things to worry about.

"Right, finish the fortune cookies; I'll go keep Rei occupied," Kai whispered, causing Yuri to grin evilly. "Not in that way you pervert. Oh and remember to put the ring in."

"Yeah, yeah, I know." Kai walked out of the kitchen quickly shutting the door behind him.

"I do not want to set foot anywhere near Moscow airport again. The traffic was unbelievable," Rei groaned, making his way to the kitchen.

"No! … Err. Don't you want to go and get changed first? Kai asked, leading him towards the stairs.

"Why?"

"Well I just thought… that you might want to… after your journey."

"What are you up to Kai Hiwatari?" Rei frowned at him. "I know you're up to something."

"Nothing. Okay okay, it's a surprise right, so just go and get changed." Rei pulled a face at him before leaving the room.

"What are you doing here, the doors over there," Kai said turning to Tyson and Max who were slumped over the sofa.

"Yuri invited us, he said you were having food," Tyson replied. Kai was about to continue, but thankfully for both Tyson and Yuri's health, there was a knock at the door.

"YURI! Get that!" Kai shouted into the kitchen, "I'm about to brutally murder Tyson,"

"Tyson can wait; the stir fry smells a bit weird!"

"Right, you two bakas keep Rei out of the kitchen oh and lay the table." He added as an afterthought. Kai made his way back to the kitchen to find Yuri standing at the front door staring at a confused looking Bryan. Smiling evilly to himself, he took the stir fry off the hob and watched the two at the door. "Yuri are you going to let Bryan in or are you just going to stare at him?" Snapping back to reality, Yuri stepped aside, blushing slightly.

"Oh right… do you want to come in Bryan?"

"Hi Bryan!" Kai said smirking slightly, noticing this Yuri clapped his hands together and pushed him out of the way.

"Well… hi erm… this is a nice surprise Bryan."

"Yeah, Kai rang me an hour ago and I got here as soon as I could. I'm not late am I?" He asked, taking off his coat.

"Not at all, you're just on time. Right, I'm sure Yuri wouldn't mind taking you through to the living room," Kai said, taking Bryan's coat and the bottle of wine he'd brought, as he sent a sly grin in Yuri's direction. Sending him back his best death glare, Yuri walked past Kai and led Bryan into the sitting room only to find Tyson and Max sat at the dining table, poking each other with their chopsticks.

"Oh hi Bryan!" Max smiled, poking Tyson once more, just for good measure.

"Hey Bryan, how's it going?"

"Err guys, would you mind keeping Bryan company? I'm just going to go and kill a certain blue haired Russian."

"Sure."

"Absolutely," they agreed, a little too enthusiastically, as Yuri went back into the kitchen.

"Why the hell did you invite Bryan?" He whispered dramatically, not wanting the people in the living room to hear this conversation. Kai looked up from the cooker, sucking up a noodle he was trying and grinned.

"Bryan happens to be a good friend of mine. Why did you invite Tyson?"

"Tyson happens to be a good friend of mine!" Yuri replied unconvincingly.

"No but seriously."
"Look, that isn't the point; I'm asking you why you didn't tell me that Bryan was coming and why does every one feel the need to call him Bryan all the time?" Yuri added.

"I've always wondered that, I think it's just got a nice ring to it, you know, Bryan… Bryan… Bry-an." Kai said saying each one in a different tone. "Or it might have something to do with the fact that Bryan's his name." Noticing the glare that Yuri was now sending him, he stopped messing around and answered the question. "I just thought it would be a nice surprise for you, and I haven't seen him for a while, is that okay? Anyway why is it such a problem?"

"Because it's a little embarrassing."

"Because you lurrrve him?"

"No, because his friend might have told him about what happened."

"Because you lurrrve him!"

"I am going to get changed."

"Because you lurrrve him!"

"No because I have flour down me."

"Because you lurrrve-"

"Whatever!"

"See, you lurrrve him!"

"And then as a joke we said we'd give you fifty quid if you ran down the street naked and you did as well!"

"I so did not!"

"You so did," Bryan said backing up Kai.

"Yeah, well we were only young-"

"Yuri we were thirteen,"

"Oh yeah! Then when he got back we squirted him with the hose pipe!" Bryan said succeeding in making everyone at the table, besides Yuri, laugh even harder.

"I forgot about that," Kai smirked.

"Oh well Yuri, you got fifty quid out of it," Rei said supportively trying and failing to hold back his laughter.

"Well you see that's the thing. We didn't actually give him fifty pounds," Kai grinned sheepishly.

"We gave him fifty pence… and that monopoly money!"

"You see they were so mean to me!"

"You weren't exactly an angel," Kai remarked.

"He's right you know. Remember that time we locked Kai in the cupboard?" Bryan asked smiled evilly.

"I haven't heard this one," Rei said raising an eyebrow at Kai.

"Well there isn't really much to tell except that it involved Kai, a cupboard and six hours," Yuri explained sending a sly grin in Bryan's direction.

"Yeah but you suckers thought I was dead, then you let me out straight away. What about Bryan he's had a fair few embarrassing moments."

"Kai don't change the subject, but yeah the best one was when we said pink streaks would look really good in his hair, so Bryan let us do them and-"

"And he looked like a knob," Kai interrupted.

"But I looked like even more of a knob when Yuri cut them out. I looked like I was going bald, and I had that hair cut for a year."

"Best year of my life," Yuri stated.

"So basically you were a bunch of retards when you were younger," Tyson said finishing off Max's leftovers.

"Ahh, some things never change," Rei sighed.

"Right is everyone finished?" Kai asked collecting up the dishes after smacking Rei playfully on the head.

"I think Tyson's just about full after his tenth course," Max answered.

"Not quite. I've left a little bit of room for these fabulous fortune cookies I've heard so much about." Kai sent him a 'shut up or die' glare as Rei jumped up and started helping him with the dishes.

"I'll help."

"No, Yuri's gonna help me aren't you?" Yuri pulled a face and reluctantly took the plates from Rei.

"Do I have a choice?"

Once they were in the kitchen and out of hearing range, Yuri dumped all the plates, rather unceremoniously, into the dishwasher and handed Kai the tray of fortune cookies he'd prepared earlier.

"Right, Rei's is this one in the left hand corner. I ran out of fortunes so that one there's empty, you can give me that one."

"Okay," Kai said, breathing in deeply. Noticing how nervous he looked, Yuri smiled reassuringly at Kai.

"Well, this is all very exciting," he added, trying to keep up Kai's optimistic side. "You'll be fine, trust me." Kai nodded

"You're right, let's go." Giving him a quick pat on the back, Yuri opened the door and sat back down at the table.

"So who's is the dog?" Bryan asked, as Kai placed the tray on the table, turning it around so it would fit on.

"Mine, I got her this morning," Yuri stated, smiling slightly at Bryan.

"She's pretty cute, what's her name?"

"Kai."

"Bitch."

"Babe." Rei, Kai and Yuri replied together.

"Okay," Bryan said uncertainly.

"Her name is Babe, my dog, my name."

"'Beware of the blue haired Russian.'" Tyson read out his fortune to the rest of the group, just as Kai sat down next to him. Seeing this, he moved his chair away slightly.

"Yes Tyson, you'd better watch out, I've got my eye on you."

"Okay, who wrote these?" Max asked reading his slip of paper.

"Yuri."

"I should have known."

"'You will get what you want sooner that you think.'" Bryan read aloud. "Great."

"Oh, it looks like I don't have a fortune," Rei said popping one half of the cookie into his mouth. Kai immediately looked up at Yuri who started choking and spluttering as if to answer the question Kai was asking himself. "Err, are you okay?"

"Yes… Yes I'm… fine," Yuri gasped between coughs, as he grabbed Kai's arm and pulled him into the kitchen. Guessing what was going on, as Yuri had mentioned something about Kai proposing earlier, Bryan followed them telling Rei to stay were he was.

"I must have got the plates mixed up," Kai said, looking anxiously at Yuri who was still choking.

"No… shit… Sherlock." Just at that moment Bryan walked in and leant on the work surface next to the gasping Yuri.

"I presume the ring wasn't meant for Yuri?"

"Over my… dead body."

"It will be in a minute."

"Oh…yeah and who's…who's fault will that be?"

"Don't look at me like that; you should have noticed you were putting a ring in your mouth!"

"I thought… the cookie was empty so… I put it in whole. How the hell… was I supposed to know… you can't tell your left from your right?!"

"Will you two shut up?!"

"Sorry Bryan," Kai and Yuri mumbled in unison as they lowered their heads.

"Right, Kai you go back into Rei and keep him occupied. I'll sort Yuri out."

"I bet you will," Kai murmured under his breath but shut his mouth immediately as Yuri trod on his foot. As he made his way to the door, Bryan stood next to Yuri. Noticing this, Kai winked at the red head then hurried out seeing the look that was being sent his way. Turning back to Bryan, Yuri grinned slightly.

"You're not going to perform the Heineken manoeuvre on me are you? I don't think either of us would live it down if you did."

"Would that be the Heimlich manoeuvre? Heineken's a beer," Bryan asked, smiling slightly.

"I knew that." Bryan laughed at the blush on Yuri's cheeks.

"Anyway, I'm not going to. I find this works just as well." Without warning, he thumped Yuri on the back. Sure enough, the ring came flying out of his mouth and, as if in slow motion, the two of them watched it fly across the kitchen. On cue, Kai came back through the door and caught the ring just in time. He looked up at the two of them then back down at the silver band in his hand.

"Eww, eww! Yuri slobber!"

IT'S FINISHED! Well not the story obviously, BUT the chapter is finally complete! We are sooooooooo sorry it took as long as it did. But we've made it extra long to make it up to you.

Before you go we want to explain the Bryan situation. Bryan is just your typical nice kinda guy. Everyone seems to feel the need to say his name constantly because it has a cool ring to it as Kai so clearly demonstrated. He is good friends with the three of them, but is one of Kai's more manly friends, well his only manly friend really. Basically, him and Yuri have always been pretty close but in more of a friendly kind of way… until now. But we don't want to give too much away.

Anyway, we're back at the shit hole that is school, so our time is now limited but we will try to update a little faster this time.

Now, click that blue button and make us HAPPY! (Do it for Josie as it's her birthday and she had to go to school TT)
