Secrets turned into Words
The black haired boy brought another bite of the delish strawberry pancakes into his mouth, letting himself savor the taste. He caught a foreign fork starting to evade his dish, and he glared into the storm eyes that belonged to the person trying to steal his food.
"Tyson…touch my pancakes, you are going to suffer."
The kitten of the house, Kyu poked his head out of the kitchen, "Ty, if you wanted more, I could make some for you."
"You really could?" A bright grin appeared on Tyson's face, "Okay, thanks, Kyu."
A small sigh came from the team's official loner, as he looked back out the window. That overgrown Japanese boy was going to rip his underwear if he kept eating like that, Kai thought. His ass was already huge as it is.
Their Japanese neko, Kyrie, rolled his eyes, and looked at Tyson, "If this keeps up, we might have to put you on a diet."
"A diet! No!"
Kyu began to giggle, pushing his silver hair out of his face, "Just sit tight, I got another batch almost ready."
Rei began to take another bite of his breakfast, "As long as he doesn't eat mine."
The blonde began to try and finish up his syrupy mess, a grin plastered on his face, "This is the best thing I've ever tried!"
Kyrie looked over, and nudged him, "That's what you always say to everything you try as long as it's sweet and has sugar in it."
"I know. This is the best thing I tried all morning!"
The raven haired boy sweatdropped, "Max…you just proved your koi's point."
Max looked over at him in confusion, "I did?"
Everyone minus the blonde haired boy sweatdropped at those words. The silver haired boy made his way back into the dining room, and laid the other plate of self made pancakes in front of the blue haired dragon.
"Here ya go."
Just keep eating, Max." The red haired neko-jin smiled, still sweatdropping at how naiive the blonde was.
The blue haired male stared at the prepared meal in front of him for a good minute or so, then dug into the strawberry goodness, a boyish grin on his face.
"Is there going to be a time when he's going to choke on his food so he learns a lesson to 'slow down'?"
Rei shrugged at Kyrie, "Probably not."
The silver haired kitten looked over to see the slate haired boy was still sitting by the window, not eating once again. He suddenly got an idea, and hurried on his way back to the kitchen to make himself something to eat. The red haired neko-jin looked over at the sourpuss, and began to mutter.
"So, Kai, have you ever..." He coughed abruptly.
The scarlet eyed male looked at him, "What are you talking about?"
"I'll give you a hint, his name starts wit K and it ends with u."
The Russian gave a glare, then turned his head, "Not yet."
"Well, I hope you tell him soon, I think he's up to something in that kitchen of his." The team's black haired kitten added.
Max looked confused, "Huh?"
"Max, just finish your breakfast!"
"Okay."
The slate haired boy looked over at them, "What do you mean he's up to something? He's always up to something."
"Here's the difference, "Kyrie winked, "it involves you."
The chinese neko grinned, "Well, I'm done."
The tiger picked up his dishes, then snatched the empty plate in front of the dragon, although the boy looked at him as if he had stolen his treasure from him. The red head looked at the dragon with a blunt look.
"If you keep this up, Tyson, we're gonna have to litterally roll you down the stairs."
"Or just kick him down the stairs, that works better." Kai added, making Kyrie sweatdrop.
"I'm done!" piped up Max.
The chinese boy looked at him, "Thanks for the announcement."
After a short while, and the smell of pancakes filling the kitchen again, the golden eyed kitten came into the dining room, holding a plate of pancakes that he had make for himself. He set them on the table in front of him, and sat down, and began to tear them apart with his fork.
The tiger looked at Tyson, "Tyson, every time you want more pancakes than your supposed to, you always make the little neko-jin eat late. We really should put you on that diet."
"You definitely know what Kyrie does with his little diet plans, Rei!" He hissed.
The red head cracked his knuckles, "Hey, they did work, didn't they? You lost a decent amount of weight until Thanksgiving."
"Alright then, I'm going to train, whoever wants to battle me outside may dare follow." The kitty said in a playful voice, and headed out the door.
Max raced after him, "Wait for me!"
The red haired male stood up, and followed the two, looking back at Tyson, "C'mon, plumpy, you're coming too."
A growl came from the dragon, "Plumpy! Why I outta-" He chased after him, "COME BACK HERE!"
The red headed neko-jin ran away as the dragon chased him out the door of the house. The silver haired kitty and our favorite Russian watched as it happened. A small little anime puff came from the boy's mouth, and shook his head.
"He'll never learn."
Kyu simply gave a little chuckle, biting into his food again, "Kai, why didn't you eat anything?"
Kai looked over at the kitten for a second, then looks away, lightly running his finger against the glass of the window he was sitting next to timidly. Anyone could guess this, but the Russian never liked sitting with the others, he liked to be alone, althought it seemed to hurt the younger boy. He tried cooking to get the older boy to join them and try his cooking.
"Wasn't really hungry today. It comes from being trained to eat little or nothing at all back in Biovolt."
A small blink came from the little kitty, as he heard the older boy say that to him. Being trained to eat little or nothing, but wouldn't they suffer from malnutrition? A soft look appeared in the young silver haired boy's eyes, as he hopped his chair, his fingers holding a piece of his pancakes, and came by the older male.
"Would you like to try a bite?" He offered the piece to him, "I know they're your favorite."
Kai just glanced at it for a while, then gave an akward shrug, "I guess it wouldn't hurt." He took it, and popped it into his mouth, giving it a tender chew, finishing off with a light lick to the lips, "Not bad, Kyu, you're pretty serious about your cooking."
'I would have been more serious if you would eat with us a bit more... then I would be even better...' Them he spoke outloud, "You know, this is the first time you've ever tried my cooking. When I cook again, you think you could join us? I promise you'll like it."
The older male seemed to hesitate, "I don't know..." He looked over, seeing Kyu was giving him the famous puppy chibi eyes, "...Alright, alright, just stop it with the look already."
"Yay!" The golden eyed boy hopped up and down a few times, "Okay, I gotta clean up in the kitchen, I will see ya later."
With that said, the kitty began to gather the dishes that were on the table, and put them into a couple piles so he could come in, and put them in the sink one after another. Kai sat there for a couple seconds, taking in the surroundings around him. The spray of water was heard from the sink in the kitchen, and outside, he could hear the sounds of clashing blades sending attacks at one another. He sighed, lightly shaking his head at the younger boy's antics at his agreement for him to cook his food.
'Sometimes I wish I knew Kyu more better...' He thought to himself.
He stood up from his place at the window, and decided he would be able to take an hour or so of sleep, and began to head upstairs to the room him and the kitty were sharing at the house that Mr. Dickenson had rented out for them. As he headed up the stairs, Kyu was busy cleaning up the dishes for him to use later on that night, as he was humming to himself, finally glad that Kai would be eating with the others later that night, and he was going to do his best.
The older boy shut the door behind him, hoping no one would bother him as he went to take his nap. He raised an eyebrow, as he spotted something on the nightstand on the bed. It was a small black book that had japanese writting all over it, and had a chibi head of a kitty on it. He made his way over, and picked the book into his hands, and looked at it, trying his best not to open the small little book.
'What's this?' He thought to himself why looking at it, 'Must be Kyu's...' He put it back on the nightstand, and laid down on the bed, his red eyes looking at the book every now and then, "It's none of my concern what goes on in that book, just leave it be.'
The book continued to lie there on the small resting spot, seeming to taunt the older boy. It was like it was merely waiting for the Russian to go over, and flip it open and read the kitty's thoughts. It was only natural, the older boy had been wondering a lot about the kitty, and it seemed to be the only way he could learn anything about the silver haired male. He tried his best to fight the urge, even as it only sat there, litterally begging for Kai to read it. It was only natural... he gave in.
"...Oh for the love of god." He muttered, as he picked it up, leaned against the headboard, and opened the little book, reading the small words that filled the little ebony paper bounded object.
"April 10th... Day of destruction
I don't know what to do anymore... my mother tells me not to blame myself for what happened... but... I feel like the reason my father is gone is because of me... I don't want to cause anymore trouble for my family... I'm like a jynx to the remaining people I have left... I'm gonna head out of Kyoto tonight, and travel through cities until I find a place where not everyone I meet leaves because of me... I'll write again when I can
-Kyu Sakashi"
A small frown appeared on the phoenix's lips, as he read this entry, from the looks of it, Kyu had problems with his family. He felt like he was the reason his father was gone? It was like that a lot, he thought he was the reason that his parents were gone, and he had deserved the life he had when he was with his grandfather and Boris, getting the torture and training ever single day. He was more than eager to learn more about the kitty, and turned the page to see what was there this time.
"June 3rd... a small light of hope
Well, here I am... in America, joined up with a group of Beybladers called the Bladebreakers... let's see... how to describe them... There's Tyson, a hot headed kid with a huge appetite. He's the leader... I think... he owns a bit beast called Dragoon, which makes him think he's all that... what a Air head. Then there's Max. Kind hearted, funny... kinda... hyper as hell. I'm serious, give this kid some sugar, and he'll be hopping from the ceiling all day. He owns a turtle bit beast named Draciel. Then there's Rei. Calm, loyal, but seems a little confused from his recent battle against the White Tigers. He asked me the other day what he was going to do when he was forced to go back home... or if the Bladebreakers split up. I really didn't know how to answer. Then... there's the final blader, Kai. He's pretty cold to people, and he's distant from the rest of us. He acts like he doesn't like any of us... but I don't know... maybe... I could be like a friend to him... that is, if he lets me."
"..." Kai didn't know what to think about that one, as he turned the page, and looked on at the slightly messy words.
"August 15th... Destruction
I don't know how it happened... but... I saw Kai blading for the Demolition Boys. He was using this dark bit beast named Black Dranzer. Everyone was shocked... even me. Tyson was so mad, saying how Kai had betrayed us, and they seemed to complain that he was no longer there. I guess my temper got out of control... and I yelled at them for saying things like that. I didn't want to believe it... my thoughts had been messed up since I saw him, power hungry, absorbing the bit beats of the All-Stars and the White Tiger. Even if Tyson doesn't approve, I gotta try and talk to him... maybe by luck... he'll listen to what I say... I hope"
That memory seemed to curse his mind, he had left everyone that cared for him for a chance to have the most powerful bit beast that he could get his hands on, and learn more about the past that he had been blocking out of his mind for so long. That long to know who he was, and that lust for the powerf and perfection he always wanted caused him to join the other side. He lightly grimaced to himself, as he flipped the page, his blood red eyes glancing at the next page, and the words it held for him this time.
"August 18th... Help, anyone?
Well, needless to say... I got my tail torn off when I finally got back... Tyson wasn't happy that I went in there by myself, and used Dranzer to fight against Kai. I didn't care, not like they were going to do anything better, but...at least I won... and Kai's finally back... though from the looks of it, he's going through a guilt trip. Great, just what we need. Well, the tournament finally ended, and the winners are... the Bladebreakers.
Bladebreakers: 2
Demolition Boys: 1
I didn't do much, but they seemed to congratulate me for the victory too... ah well, I'll just go along so I don't get lectured from Tyson. Write again when I can
-Kyu Sakashi"
The memories of the battle that he faced with the younger kitty seemed to go through his mind. Kyu had come into the Abbey, and demanded to see the older boy, even though Boris didn't see that happening. He saw the kitty, and threw his blade at the boy's feet, telling him he didn't need them, and he didn't need the red phoenix anymore. Kyu had kneeled down, and picked the blade into his hands, and clentched it into his hand, and picked himself up, put it on his self made launcher, and pointed it at the older boy, demanding for him to battle against him if he was so sure he didn't need him or his feathered companion. It was a long rough battle, but in the end, the older boy ended up losing against him, and went back to the other team, not sure if they would even want him back, although it seemed they were happy to get him back. He sighed, and turned the page, only to find the last filled out page of the small book.
"April 28th... What now?
I'm really confused right now... it's been about 8 months since the Russian Tournament, and for some reason, a said Russian won't leave my thoughts. The battle we had continues to go through my dreams and I seem to even draw pictures of him... though each one I make, he's smiling... which I don't really see in reality. I don't know, but... I think I like him... but.. how am I supposed to say that out loud? I guess... for now, I'll try to get him to come out of the shell he's made around himself a little bit more before I say anything. Maybe one day I'll finally be able to say "Kai... Aishiteru..."
-Kyu"
The boy's blood eyes widened, 'He... he loves me...?'
His hands that were supporting the black book began to tremble, as it slipped from his gloved fingers, and fell onto the floor beneath him. The black book fell on the ground, as a few sketches that the diary had mentioned spilled onto the floor. The older male's blood red eyes stared at the small drawn sketches that the kitty had made of him. They had been made as if they were priceless, and nothing else could compare to them. It was true that he had never smiled very much, but from the sketches, it looked like he did it all the time. He laid a hand on his forehead, seeming to feel his thoughts go wild in his mind.
'...He loves me... but the question is...do I love him back...?'
The sound of a glass hitting the floor caught the older boy's attention, as he looked up, only for his red orbs to meet with a pair of uncomparable marigold. The kitty was looking down to see his journal on the ground, with his pictures of Kai scattered on the floor, and Kai had a confused look on his face. He could tell... Kai had read his last entry, the one where he had said he loved him. His eyes look like someone had broken them into pieces, as he slammed the door, and ran through the hallway.
"Oh no." The older boy whispered to himself, and headed out the door, retracing the kitty's steps, "Kyu? Where are you?"
The black haired tiger was at the bottom of the steps, wondering what was going on, "Did you do something to make him mad, Kai?"
The older boy looked down at the boy, and sighed, "Does the following of my curiosity getting the better of me and reading his personal journal add up?"
"...Yeah, it does..." He pointed out the door, "He headed outside, from the way he was running, I guess he went to the park."
The older boy nodded, practically skipped down a few steps, and reached the bottom of the stairs, and headed out the door, rushing past a very confused Max, Tyson, and Kyrie. Question marks appeared above the blonde's head, as he watched this happen, and the navy haired dragon stood there with a dumb look on his face.
"Could someone please explain what's going on here?"
"Kai had a little curiousity to read Kyu's journal, and now there's going to be a little pow wow in the park."
The red haired kitty piped up, "Is it just me, or has Kai been with Kyu too long to even have curiosity in the first place?"
The tiger and turtle said in sync, "Definatly been with Kyu too long."
The older male hadn't stopped running his fast pace in running as he came towards the park, glancing left and right for any sight of the little silver haired kitty that everyone seemed to love. Suddenly, a trace of silver and black caught his eyes, and he stopped looking over at what was the little neko. The japanese boy was kneeling by the fountain, his head down on his arms, his small little shoulders shuddering slightly. Sniffs were pouring out of his mouth, his sleeve becoming soaked from his tears, as the cat ears were flat against his head, and his tail was limp beside his body. With slight hesitation, he began to walk over to the younger boy. He hadn't been this scared since he stepped into the Abbey for the first time he could remember. He kneeled down next to the young cat, and placed a hand on his shoulder, hoping he would be forgiven for what he did.
"Kyu... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to pry into your private thoughts..." He whispered.
A small whimper came from the kitty, as he lifted his head, and looked at the older boy with soft misty orbs of gold. The red rose eyes stared at the kitten's eyes, feeling like he was looking at the most beautiful eyes he could ever see in his life. It looked like they could outmatch the very sun if they tried. They closed once again, as they held back the tears that were gathering once again, and without warning, he threw his arms around the older fire bird, seeming scared to release him, thinking he was going to leave him, like the others. Not knowing what else to do, Kai wrapped his arms around the little neko-jin, stroking his soft silver locks, as he rocked the younger boy in his lap. He cradled his head in his hand, as if he was a small little child that had been scared of a dream. Small tremors ran through Kyu's shoulders, as he was held against the Russian's strong frame, as he gripped his shirt with his sharp neko-jin claws.
'What am I supposed to say? From the look on his face, he read the last entry I wrote... where it said I loved him... please don't let him hate me...'
The older male held the kitten closer, feeling guilt twist in his heart, "Kyu, I'm sorry, please don't hate me..."
The Japanese boy sniffed lightly, and looked up at the boy with his golden eyes, "Don't hate you..." What do you mean? I could never hate you..." With that, the cat ears went flat.
Kai glanced off, "Well, after reading your personal thoughts, I wouldn't blame you for doing it, Kyu..."
A small frown appeared on the silver haired boy's face, as he tugged his shirt, "I just... don't want you to hate me..." The cat ears buried under his messy locks.
"Of course not, Kyu, I would never be able to hurt you." The older boy said to the adorable kitten.
The ears perked up slightly, "...You did read the last entry, didn't you..."
"..." The scarfed boy blushed lightly, "Yeah... I did."
The ears flattened again, "So... you don't hate me for that?"
The boy lightly shook his head, "Why would I hate you for that..." He leaned down a little, "When I love you back."
The young boy stare at him with a blank look, seeming if he had been giving the best news he had ever recieved in his life. A gentle smile appeared on his face, as he threw his arms around the older boy, and planted his soft lips over Kai's in a kiss. The red eyed male closed his eyes, as he pulled the kitten closer to him, pressing deeper against his lips, his arms wrapped tightly around Kyu's waist. Small moans came from the two of them, as they parted each other's lips, and brought their tounges at each other, getting into a demanding firey fight, both threatening to dominate the lip lock they were both in. Our favorite Russian pushed the kitty back against the ground, as Kyu began to play with his silky midnight hair.
After they parted from their passionate kiss, the older male pushed his shirt down a little, and lightly began to bite at his neck. A tiny whine came from the younger one in the relation, seeming to wish he was the one that was doing the biting, as he let his sharp kitty fangs bite the boy's ear, causing a small twitch to go through the older boy's frame at getting bit as well. They finally stopped kissing and biting each other, as they pulled each other towards each other, as the kitty flicked his ear.
"I love you, Kai..."
"And I love you too, Kyu..."
