Everybody Wants Kai!
Hey so this is the final chapter-a long one but the last one. I hope you've all enjoyed this fic but I have to go back to the serious stuff, Kano has some stuff to work out with Kai and secrets are about to be spilled. Enough with my rambling though. Thanks for the reviews, we don't own beyblade but Kano and Izzy are entirely original.
Chapter 8-Final Decisions of a Dying Friendship.
"K! Wake up! We're going shopping." Izzy jumped about beside Kano's bedroll.
"We…are?" Kano asked sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
"Yes! Up! Now!" Izzy commanded.
"Ok, I'm up…what we shopping for?"
Izzy gave Kano a meaningful look that told her "baby".
"Give me ten minutes." Kano got up and grabbed her clothes. "Ow!"
"What? You ok?" Izzy enquired worriedly.
"Yeah…it kicked." Kano whispered.
"Mine hasn't done that yet…maybe it's too early." Izzy replied. "Come on! Shift! We have to leave before everyone gets up."
"Looks like someone has already left." Kano pointed to the empty space beside Rei.
"Yeah…come on hurry up!"

"Kano you have to tell someone!" Izzy moaned waiting for people in front of her to pay for their items.
"I did. I told you!" Kano replied picking up a bear in pink baby clothes.
"I mean someone else!" Izzy hissed, placing her things on the counter.
"Like who? Drako and Blank will know in a few days. I sent them a letter and I'm not telling Rei! He'd kill me!"
"Then tell…thanks…tell Kai." Izzy said paying for her things and grabbing her bags.
"I'm not telling Kai! You must think I'm crazy!" Kano retorted. "Have you told Max?"
"No! But that's not the point…" Izzy trailed off.
"Izzy…why are you still smoking?" Kano asked as they sat down at a bench.
"Because Kano, it helps me get through things." Izzy replied, the mention f smoking making her fiddle in her pockets.
"Izzy! It'll damage your baby! It damages you! I don't like it, neither does Max! I'd have thought you'd given it up, at least while your pregnant!" Kano began, getting frustrated.
"I think I can decide what's good for me and what's not! You sound like my mother! I'm not gonna have this baby anyway-remember the dreams? Yours came true!" Izzy snapped, equally angry. She stood up to leave.
"You won't, Izzy, if you carry on with the weed and stuff. Don't you get it? If you stop, you can have a happy family. Pick the kids up from school, go home to your own house and a loving husband…I can't…" Kano's words stopped Izzy.
"No Kano! I won't have this baby…" Izzy turned to face Kano. "I'm sorry."
"No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled at you…I'm in the wrong, not you. Sorry." Kano apologised even as her thoughts contradicted her words.
They headed towards a nearby lift in silence. As Kano pressed the button Izzy broke the silence.
"You really should tell Kai though. He deserves to know-it's his child too y'know." Izzy pressed as they waited.
"Sure! It's not like I'm going to walk up to Kai and say "Nice day Kai, oh! Just thought I'd let you know I'm pregnant with your baby." I don't fuck…ing-Hi Kai!" Kano stopped as she realised the lift had arrived, it's soul occupant being Kai.
"Do you want to repeat that?" Kai asked, stepping out of the lift.
"Um…not really." Kano replied bemusedly.
"We should go get some coffee-Let's go to Starbucks, we need to talk." Kai moved out of the way to let some people into the lift.
"Wait! Izzy? You not coming?" Kano asked her friend who was trying to get into the lift.
"No, you guys need to talk about this without distraction." Izzy began to get into the lift but Kano stopped her.
"You have to tell someone-having it or not!" Kano kept hold of Izzy's arm, the people in the lift becoming irritated at the delay. "Tell Kai."
"Kai! I'm pregnant with Max's child! Don't tell him! Ja ne!" The lift suddenly closed and Izzy disappeared from view.
"So, what about that coffee?" Kano grabbed Kai's hand, annoyed at how perfectly her hand fit into his, and allowed Kai to lead her to the coffee shop just ahead of them.

Blank and Drako sat at the dining room table, the latter pale and skeletal.
"It's from Kano." Blank said unfolding the letter and placing the empty envelope on the table.
"What does it say?" Drako asked weakly.
"That they're all doing great and-What the fuck?" Blank cursed disbelievingly.
"What? Let me see!" Drako grabbed the letter from Blank, becoming dizzy from the effort.
"Last line…" Blank muttered, still shocked.
Drako skimmed the letter and read the last line with care.
Just thought I'd let you guys know that I'm pregnant. With Kai Hiwatari's baby.

"And that's how it happened." Kano finished.
"So, let me get this straight." Kai pulled his feet up onto the purple couch and turned to face Kano. "About three months ago, when we went clubbing in China, after me and Rei had fallen out-."
"Because Rei was your "whore until I got back"." Kano interrupted.
"Yeah-because of you. Me and you had sex and now your pregnant?" Kai asked, still not believing the events he was reliving in the café.
"Excuse me!" Kano and Kai turned to face a woman who looked at them with disgust. "Some of us are trying to enjoy ourselves."
"I'm happy for you, really, but didn't your mum ever tell you it was rude to eavesdrop?" Kano glared at the woman then turned back around. "That's the general idea of it." Kano replied to Kai's earlier question.
"And…Izzy?" Kai asked, taking a large drink from his coffee mug.
"Well, you see. She was stoned, and drunk, and so was Max. And well they went back to the hotel fell into bed together had sex and now Izzy can't even remember losing her virginity and getting pregnant." Kano took a deep breath.
"So because of all this you're going to your flat in Russia-why there?" Kai took another drink, noticing Kano hadn't drunk any of her frappachino.
"Russia's my home land…even though I'm Chinese, I didn't grow up there…Russia's my home and I want to go home. No matter what my past was there. Besides, I have to go somewhere. I can't get the others involved. If Rei found out he'd never forgive me and I don't want to mess everything up again…What I did was wrong, and I know it was, but the truth is…" Kano finally took a drink from her cup, swallowing her tears and pride with the cold ice drink. "I love you."
"Hey, I know…but I don't…well…love you back." Kai pulled Kano into a hug, Kano happy to be comforted. If only you knew.
"Ha! When did you become such a softie?" Kano sat up, her eyeliner smudged across her cheeks from her tears. "My eyeliner must be a mess." Kano took a mirror out of her bag and tidied her eyeliner. Turning back to Kai and smiling, Kano said her goodbye, not waiting until the day she left. "I'm sorry. Bye Kai."

Finito! There was going to be a chapter on Izzy but I decided not to do it but depending on the reviews if you guys want it I'll do it-Since Izzy is everyone's fav character. Which leads me to ask the pointless question of who is your favourite out of Kano and Izzy? -Kano,
Izzy-Just wanted to say that Kano was obviously absent the day they taught her class about contraception…although I can't really say much…Remember to R and R-Izzy
The next fic will not be up for a while as I have not gotten around to typing it. PLease add us to your author alert list so you can come back and enjoy more.-Kano
