Summary: Kai Hiwatari is the loner of the school and Rei Kon is the most popular guy in school. These two are worst enemies and truly hate each other. A drama project at school though make these two rivals get close and personal but can it work when Kai is hiding something. Especially when what he hides is a danger to everyone who comes in contact with him.

Romeo and Romeo?

Kai shook his head. What the hell was he thinking? Kon had been an asshole to him for longer then he liked and no way was he going to be nice. He accelerated out of the car park and past Rei who looked shocked at the sleek black motorbike that passed him. The only person left was Hiwatari, which meant that it was he riding that bike.

He was learning new things today. Kai Hiwatari drove a motorbike he couldn't believe it. He and his friends had usually taken the piss out of Hiwatari because he never brought a car or any vehicle to school. They had said that he was too idiotic to pass the theory test. This proved him wrong. He sighed. He had to get Hiwatari to practise with him so he could go to Ecliptic Drama School if he didn't get the grades he couldn't go there and Rei had no idea what he would do then. He cringed at the idea then continued to walk down the street towards his home.

It was a fifteen-minute walk to his house and he had wished he had driven to the rehearsal but his brother had taken the car. He finally reached his home and sighed at the sight. The white walls and large windows with the relaxful Zen garden brought familiarity to him and he smiled serenely. He was home finally. He opened his gate and walked into the building taking off his shoes at the door.

"I'm home!" he called hearing his voice echo through the empty building. His smile faded off his face as he realised that once again he was alone. He sighed and walked up the sweeping staircase and walked to his room. He looked around at his large room with a double bed draped in white cotton sheer hangings and looked at the books and computer items he had lying around. He shut his bedroom door behind him and walked over to his desk falling gracelessly into his chair. He smiled sadly as he caught site of the picture of him at five years old with his mother, father, older brother and younger sister. They looked like every other family and behind them was a very common council house.

That's what Rei used to be; he used to be a peasant like the kids at Nature High yet things had changed. Things always have to change and so did this. His family had been loving and kind, and everyone had been happy then Voltaire Hiwatari came into their lives turning their world upside down. He had offered his father and mother a job in his lab saying that they would earn a lot of money so thinking of the better education their kids could have they accepted and were soon working hard and earning more money then they had ever had. They moved to their new home and were sent to the finest schools but things started to go downhill. His father and mother were on different programs so they only saw each other when they came home. They had started working late and had started accusing each other of having affairs. Many a night Rei would wake up and find his father on the couch. Things went down hill fast and Rei soon started coming home from school to find his parents with different lovers. It had hurt Rei as did it hurt his brother and sister.

After two years of this happening the accident happened although Rei knew it was all planned. His mother and father were killed in an explosion from two chemicals mixing. Rei though had found out that it was a bomb trying to hide some evidence and it was all because of Voltaire. Rei vowed from then on that he would get revenge on the Hiwatari family and he was doing that with the grandson Kai. He could just see the smugness in the way he walked and talked knowing how he had wrecked somebody's life. That was why he tortured him every time he saw him. He wanted revenge and he was going to do it. He walked out of his room and down the hall till he came to a locked door. It was the room that belonged to his late baby sister who in despair had thrown herself off the roof of the house saying that she wanted to see mummy and daddy again. Rei closed his eyes as memories battered through his defences. He remembered how he had felt so scared when he saw his baby sister on the roof and how she had said she was going to fly with the angels to see their parents again. Rei remembered how he had screamed when she had stepped off the edge. He remembered how he had seen her long raven black hair fly around her like wings, he remembered the crack and thud he had heard as her small ten year old body had hit the pavement. He remembered how numb he had felt when he ran up to his sister seeing the blood flowing around her body and how her bones were bent at odd angles and how her scalp had burst open. He had screamed that day, cursing the gods and cursing the Hiwatari's he would get his revenge and if that too meant murder then so be it but he would make them suffer the loss he had felt.

"Rei," called a soft voice. Rei lifted his head. His older brother Aiko had tried to support Rei as much as he could. He was now twenty eight and was working every day and then went to college at night so he could get good enough grades to get a better job so he could get enough money together so Rei could stay at Jester and have the best clothes. Rei had always been grateful to Aiko who had given up his dreams of being in a band and becoming famous to support his little brother. Though the deaths had bothered him he had always hid it, he had to be strong for Rei but sometimes Rei had heard Aiko crying himself to sleep due to the memories. Rei always felt guilty. If he hadn't been so weak then his brother could confide in him and let his emotions show but he didn't. He always hid them to be strong for his brother.

"I'm up here Aiko," Rei called back down. He heard the steady footsteps of his brother walking up the stairs and felt the familiar awestruck feeling his always did when looking at his older brother.

He had gotten most of his looks from their father whilst Rei and their sister had gotten all their looks from their mother. Whilst Rei had raven black hair, Aiko had pure white hair that seemed to shine silver and piercing green eyes that had amber hinting around he edges. Whilst Rei's skin was olive Aiko's was pure ivory and unblemished and he was tall with broad shoulders, narrow hips and lean, powerful legs. He commanded respect wherever he went which was why he had risen through the ranks at the shop he worked in to manager in a matter of a few years to earn a good wage.

"How did rehearsal go?" Aiko asked smiling slightly.

"Fine but Hiwatari is being an arsehole. He wants me to fail I'm sure of it," Rei muttered. He saw how Aiko's eyes darkened at the sound of Hiwatari but it was soon hidden.

"Well you're just going to have to be real nice to him then won't you?" he stated chirpily.

"Yeah, yeah," Rei muttered, thinking not bloody likely.

"Don't yeah, yeah me now I thought you were going out with your friends?" Aiko asked.

"I can't be bothered Aiko. If they ring tell them I'm not very well ok?"

"Yeah ok little brother now go and chill out."

"Yes mother," Rei stated jokingly then turning and walking into his room staring longingly at the picture of his full family. Oh how he would give up all his money, his popularity just to go back to how things used to be, well he could dream couldn't he?
