A/N: Sorry for the looong wait, life stuff happening... Interesting fact about Kaori being legal in
Canada. I was going by the US' rules, so it was interesting to hear that.
Chapter Six: Tournament of Hearts
Kaori fastened the bun in her hair and then quickly commenced to stretching. This year, instead
of the cutesy overalls and pink teddy bear jackets, Kaori decided to go for a more adult look.
She wore tight jogging pants with a pink stripe down the middle, and a small navy-blue coat that
slightly covered her hot-pink gloves. She wore a little less make-up now. Maybe just some lip
gloss and eye shadow here and there, but they were more earthen tones instead of the
extravagent colors of her youth.
Today was the day.... The first day in a week she would see Psymon, and actually compete with him.
The beginning rounds had been held the day after the whole 'cabin incident.' Kaori and Psymon had both
made it through, but competed at different times. Today was the preliminaries to the finals, and
she would trounce him no matter how hard it was.
Kaori cracked her knuckles and then her neck before deciding to take a walk around the booths
set up specifically for tournament festivities. She had forty-five minutes until the first round began,
so she had plenty of time to see the different things she could find nowhere else. She walked through
the red and white striped tents and gazed at the different knick knacks. There we're paintings in
lavish blues and luscious greens, and humorous yard signs with corny jokes. The smell of freshly
cooked funnel cakes and cotton candy seemed almost pleasent, calming.
Kids ran around everywhere, some stopping her for an autograph for their Kaori posters. Kaori
smiled sweetly and signed them, and chatted occasionally with them. When the kids had done,
Kaori felt a sense of satisfaction, but she still didn't feel complete. There was a hole where her
heart used to be, and she didn't know why.
Actually, she did. Psymon. Why oh why did it have to be Psymon? Out of all people, her biggest
rival turns out to be her most passionate lover. What kind of sick twist is that? Did god decide there
wasn't enough dramatic irony in her life?
Kaori thought, and her guts twisted around like a fork in spaghetti. Her heart stopped when she was
grabbed anddragged into an alley. It was Psymon, again.
"What the hell Psymon..." She started to say and push him away. He pushed her back into the wall
and kissed her, hard, not passionately on the lips. It made Kaori happy and angry at the same
time. She started to push away again, but couldn't.
"Oh c'mon, I know you've been thinking about it all week. I bet you're all we...."
"Finish that sentence and die, Psymon." She tried to protest, but he started to suck on her neck.
Then she just collapsed into his arms. She was his, again.
"I can't do this Psymon. WE can't.... oh....that feels good..." She said again, but stopped herself.
"But it's still wrong. I... I can't"
"Oh c'mon, you wanna fuck, I wanna fuck, let's fuck." Psymon grinned.
"It's an alley, Psymon. People don't screw in alleys." Kaori looked up sarcastically. "And besides,
what you said the other day hurt. I can't just let you off the hook."
Psymon scowled and turned around.
"Kaori. We had sex. That was all. WE FUCKED. And we are reasonably young. Relationships should
mean nothing to us. And another thing, which I have said before, and I will say again. We are rivals.
Im not about to make my career shit just cuz you wanna have babies." He glared. "So, you wanna fuck
or not?"
Kaori just looked at him and tears started to stream down her face.
"Psymon, it wasn't just sex to me. It was my-first-time. It was special. And Im sorry but that is one thing that
I will always share with you. And we kissed. Did you forget that? Not now, before the sex. A whole day before!
People don't kiss without good reason. You felt something too!" She said, wiping her eyes.
Psymon couldn't say anything else. He was at a loss for words. He heard the truth and he knew it.
All he could do was turn around and say "Fuck off," then walk away.
