Kai/OC story. No yaoi, sorry if you're looking.
Confessions
Kai head levitated right above Willow's. His bangs were hitting her face and his nose was barely touching hers. Man, he was really trying to piss her off now. She didn't feel like being held down by this boy who was way larger than her. And he wasn't exactly helping her overcome what she was stressing over. In fact, he was just making it worse. The memory of last night's humiliation was so clear in her mind. The imagery of it all was too hard to bear. Fear of its recurrence causing her to quake under Kai.
"Kai, please, get off, please," she begged and his eyes came into focus, confused with her sudden change of mood. The visions still in her mind's eye, Willow felt tears threaten to fall. Not in front of Kai, she had to hold out. He quickly got off of her but he was still holding her wrist down.
"What's going on Willow?" his voice was so considerate and concerned, barely like the one she often heard around their friends. She turned her head from Kai, avoiding eye contact at all cost. She didn't want him to see her so weak and vulnerable, she did enough of that for one lifetime. It appeared that he didn't have the intention of letting go of her anytime soon. Damn, determined was a major trait of this dude; no doubt about it.
"Not really your problem," her feeble voice answered.
"Willow, the moment you accepted my deal. You made it my problem."
God, did he really mean that? Maybe she should read the fine print better. No, bad time to joke around. This was serious, hardcore, soul-to-soul talk. Willow never imaged doing this in her life. Let alone with a guy. Finally mustering up the courage to say the rash thing she was about to say, she spoke.
"Let's just say… my dad has realized I'm not a little girl anymore."
She winced; it was so painful telling him. The words burned her lips and tongue and humiliation coursed through her veins and soul. Her own father, the person most girls trusted to protect them. She felt Kai's grip on her hand loosen and she took the opportunity to run. She ran fast past the entire group of Beybladers, who called out to her. But she didn't care; she just wanted to get away from Kai. He knew the unbearable secret; he knew her motive to kill.
…………
Kai was shocked, her own father. It had taken him a few seconds for him to comprehend her words. Then they just hit him like a pile of bricks. It was disgusting and sickening, her kin able to do such a deed? In the time it took him to recover, Willow had fled. Now he needed to find her. God knows want she would do left to her own devices after the unspeakable crime.
Kai walked out of the room and was immediately stopped by a group of very alarmed adolescents.
"What did you do to Willow?!?!?!" screamed Hilary.
"I need to find her now." Said Kai impatiently, the seconds that ticked by were essential to his search.
"Not until you tell us what is going on!" said all of them at the same time, he would have been amused but right now was definitely NOT the time.
"Willow's in trouble and you guys blocking me isn't helping her."
"Oh my God, what happened?"
"It's going to get worse if you don't move."
"We'll come with you," said Tyson.
"No," Kai said without hesitation, "the less people who know, the better it is for her. Now MOVE!!!" He was really irritated with how ignorant they were being. Can they get it through their thick skulls that he needed to help now? Frustrated by their incompetence, Kai swept the cluster aside with one arm and started running. More calls were directed angrily at him but they were lost in the heat of the moment.
Driven by sheer will power, Kai flew through the streets. At last he found her. She just stood there, trebling, looking so helpless. It was horrible. Though a lot of things are horrible about her life from what he can understand. He just wanted it to go away. To see the confident girl he had seen that first time he was entranced by her.But she didn't realize his presence there, and it was his turn to break the silence.
"Willow." Upon summon of her name Willow twisted and kept her head down, utterly ashamed of something that wasn't her fault. He had felt that way too, when he was first being beaten on. It's the worst feeling in the world.
"Funny how a mind wanders at the most vital of times." She spoke softly, "You barely recognize the things happening around yourself." She shook during this statement.
"It's my only refuge, my mind, the only place that hasn't been corrupted by him. But who knows? Maybe it has? It drives you crazy. All you can think about is what has happened to you. You want to end the suffering, you have enough determination to kill. But it ends up that as much you want to hurt the other person, you just hurt yourself. Trying so hard, everything goes wrong; to the deep end. Someone must be looking out for me upstairs though. Ever since I met you, things have found a sunny side. I bet you hate that, giving someone a positive outlook. And it's not just you either. There's someone else, I don't know who it is, but I really don't trouble myself about them right now. Because I feel closer to you than to whoever else is out there."
What was she trying to say something? Whatever jumbled message she was giving him was enough and more for him. Sometime while she was speaking, it had started pouring. The rain dripped from her face and hair, revealing the true, bruised face that was covered with pale foundation; though it would be a nasty sight to any other, it seemed more beautiful than before to him. Coming up and lifting her head so he had eye contact with the fragile girl, he whispered.
"I hope you do care for the other, because it would be a shame if you didn't."
Comprehension grasped Willow straight away as she gasped, "You're the…"
Willow wasn't able to finish that sentence; it was cut off when Kai closed the distance between them with a kiss. Her lips where soft and supple. Pulling her close, sheltering her from the rain, the kiss deepened and the two were in unfathomable bliss. It finally broke when they came up for air, and who else but the entire band of Bladebreakers standing, mouths open, watching them.
"Umm… hi guys," laughed Willow insecurely as she rubbed her arm. A uneasily silence hung over the group and at last Max made a comment,
"FINALLY!!! WAY TO GO KAI!!!!" This remark was accompanied by a hoot from Rei. A distressed Hilary starting bitching about how the hell did Max and Rei know what was going on when she didn't? Tyson was still stuck on the fact that Willow and Kai were making out a moment ago.
Willow turned back to Kai and smiled, "we've got some explaining to do." Then she buried her head in Kai's shoulder and chuckled, "a LOT of explaining."
Wow, it took me like the entire week to write this. I had to put them together as perfectly as I could. And don't worry, the story isn't over; I've got A LOT of material for this one.
Review, or I'll pour cold water all over you and see if you turn into a girl like Ramna, or boy if you're already a girl. XP
