WARNING: LEMONade CHAPTER!
Shattered Past
By Kitty-Kris
Chapter 8: Party Night!
A freezing wind blew a patch of purple hair, making it go whipping into a young girl's face.
Melody flickered her hair off her face as she stood in the middle of a huge snow field. She could hear some birds singing and kids playing somewhere. She looked down at the ground and smiled. Ever since she was a kid she had found the snow something fascinating. She bent down and took a fist of the white cold substance grinning widely 'I can't believe I'm back home!'. She chuckled softly to herself as she watched the sunset. Suddenly, a familiar voice called out from behind her. "Hey Mel!" Melody quickly turned around to see who was calling her, her heart full of hope. Her eyes widened in joy as she saw him. "MY IVY!"
She ran to him as fast as she could and hugged him tightly laughing like a little child "What are you doing here? I missed you so much! Where are the boys?"
Tala laughed too and stepped back a bit "Whoa! Hold the fire! Nice to see you too!" he chuckled at her shiny eyes and took a more serious expression as he answered her question "Er, sorry but… I'm here on my own…"
She pouted "Aw… I miss my boys…"
The red-head grinned "They miss you too… that I assure you… now come on, I'll buy you some ice-cream and you can tell me where you've been all this time!"
"YAY!" she hugged him tightly again and linked arms with him as they walked towards a nearby shop, talking about what she had been doing in the four months they had been away from each other. Tala opened the door and signalled for her to go in. Inside, Melody looked around, recognizing the place. "This is pretty familiar… and why is it so dark?"
Melody cringed as the door behind her slammed, leaving her in total darkness "Tala? If this is a joke, it's NOT funny! You know I hate dark places and- WAAA!" she gave out a yelp as she felt someone grabbing her from behind "I know…" Melody's eyes widened. That certainly wasn't Tala! "Where- where's Tala?"
"Tala?" the man chuckled evilly "I've killed him a long time ago… Why do you ask?"
She felt tears prickling her eyes "How- how is that possible? Who are you?"
She felt the man pushing her roughly, sending her crashing down to the floor. She turned around to glare at him, and then she saw who it was as he kneeled down in front of her. "I'M YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE!" he yelled as he took out a familiar looking whip.
Melody screamed as loud as she could and tried to get away from Boris, but he pinned her to the ground laughing out evilly. She stopped screaming and shut her eyes tightly. She knew that no one could hear her, and no one could save her. She was loosing all her hope when everything around her suddenly seemed to change and she found herself back in her room with the guys.
She wiped her brow and looked to her left, from where she could hear someone grunting ":yawn: Who screamed?" Max rubbed his eyes and looked at her, blinking.
The girl looked around the room to find everyone staring at her with pretty annoyed and sleepy faces. Apparently, she hadn't only screamed in her dream.
"Melly-Chan… are you ok?"
She turned to her robot's concerned eyes and shook her head "I- I'm fine… it was just a nightmare… that's all… sorry guys…"
Ray yawned "It's ok… can anyone tell me what time it is?"
Kai looked at the watch on his bedside table and got up "Five AM. I'm off."
Tyson grunted and covered his head with his pillow "Well go on your own… it's too damn early for me to train…"
Melody got up as well "Wait for me… I'll go too. I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep again anyways…"
Kai shrugged and searched his bag for some clothes as Melody did the same and went into the bathroom to get dressed.
Max sat up on his bed and looked at his team mates with a concerned look "You guys think she'll be ok?"
The Chief nodded and laid down "Don't worry Max… Melly's a strong girl… now get back to sleep… :yawn:"
Kai pulled on his shirt and after getting his Beyblade and launcher ready, he left the room. Outside in the corridor, he leaned against the wall, waiting for Melody, who came out of the room as well in no time, rubbing her forehead.
Kai frowned at her as she moaned "Are you feeling alright?"
She raised her eyes at him and nodded "I'm fine… just a bit of a headache… but I'll be fine as soon as I get some fresh air…"
He nodded and they left towards the woods near the castle. "Hum, where's Deenix?"
"I left her body in my bag. Her bit piece's here." She said showing him her Beyblade.
Kai sighed and kept walking, until he remembered to ask her something he was curious about "Er, Melody? Would you tell me something?"
She looked at him and sighed "You want to know what my nightmare was, don't you?"
Kai blushed a bit "I, er… how did you know?"
Melody motioned in front of him with a "duh" look on her face. She kept walking backwards and smirked, while she waved her fingers like a witch casting a spell "I can read minds! And I can see your secret! You like playing with…" she closed her eyes as if she was concentrating. Kai blinked at her in confusion as she snapped out of it and pointed at him in an accusatory way "…BARBIE DOLLS! Oh! Kai likes Barbies! How cute! n-n" she then exploded with laughter as Kai sweatdropped and blinked twice, completely dumbfounded. He rose an eyebrow at her "I think someone needs some medication…"
Melody couldn't stop laughing as he rolled his eyes and walked past her looking pretty annoyed "You're being ridiculous and childish…"
She stopped her laughing and ran to catch up with him "Hey! I was only joking! Aw! Don't tell me I've hurt your feelings! No wait… you're not supposed to have any, are you?" she giggled again.
Kai glared at her "You know, I thought you were different, but I guess I was wrong… you're just like the rest of them…"
Melody blinked unintelligently, not really liking the route that conversation was taking "Huh, like who?"
He turned away and kept walking "Like Tyson for instance…"
It was her turn to glare at him "DON'T compare me to him. Don't compare me to anyone…"
Kai stopped his track as she moved to right in front of him, still glaring "I was just joking! If you can't take a joke, then that's your problem to deal with! Not mine! It's not my fault God forgot to give you a sense of humor… probably the phone rang while he was making you and he forgot about it when he got back."
The boy blinked at her and snickered a bit "Ok then, blame him. But later, I've got training to do and you still haven't told me about your dream. Don't think I forgot about it…"
Melody jerked her head down "Damn… I was hoping you had…" she then laughed and grabbed his hand, dragging him outside "Sorry Kai-Zer, but that's one of those things that'll go to the grave with moi!" she laughed at his disappointed face and sped up her pace "C'mon! I still want to catch the sunrise!"
Kai sighed and let her drag him all the way 'My GOD this girl is WEIRD!'
(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)
At dinner time that night, everyone was chatting madly and loudly about the party they'd be having the next day. Robert couldn't stop complaining about Enrique's guests, Oliver couldn't stop drinking Gustoff's tea, and Johnny couldn't stop picking on Kai about him being all cuddled up with Melody when they had arrived.
Kai was about to lunge at the annoying Scottish, when Gustoff cleared his throat from behind them "Excuse me, Master Johnny, but you have someone here to see you…" he then moved away revealing a girl behind him. She had green eyes with a piercing on her left brow and black, short, spiky hair, with the tips and bangs tinted red. She was wearing a brown sleeveless top, with a light-reddish-brown scarf around her shoulders, a dark brown mini-skirt, reddish brown and brown tights and dark brown boots. On her right hand she wore a brown fingerless glove, and on her left lower-arm she had a dark brown arm-warmer. Guess you can say she liked brown…
Johnny whined and hid behind Robert "Oh NO! It's the Minx!" he then laughed and walked to the just arriving girl, hugging her "What are you doing here?"
The girl raised an eyebrow at him "Huh, ya invited me?"
"Oh, right! But you weren't supposed to be here so soon… oh well. Er… guys, this is April, my cousin… April, these are Robert, Oliver, Enrique, Kai, Tyson, Kenny, Max, Ray and Melody. Oh, and the robot thingy over there is Deenix."
April glared at him "Ah thought ah told ya tah call me Minx… Ya kno' I dun like Ahpril…"
Johnny grinned "It's April… can't even pronounce your name correctly…"
Minx shoved her elbow into his gut and stuck her tongue out "It ain't mah fault ah was born in the Wales, ya know?"
"Maybe, but that accent of yours is hardly Welsh… Have you been hanging out with those monkeys again?"
"Why ya big-"
Johnny cackled madly as he ran away from his cousin "Temper now!"
Robert stood up and motioned towards the just arriving girl "Hello, my name is Robert and I'll be your host. Please follow Gustoff to your room and come back downstairs when you're done settling in." he smiled at her. He didn't know why, but he liked that odd girl.
Minx rose an eyebrow at him "What are ya? One ah those robots tha' go "Beep beep, yes Master"? Geez!"
Everyone laughed madly at this, while Robert just blinked at her "Er, no I was just being polite… not that you'd know anything about it by the looks of things…"
She fisted him in his shoulder in a greeting way and turned around "Sure, Wha'ever Rob… ah'll see ya lot in a few minutes…"
Robert rubbed his shoulder and watched as Gustoff picked up her luggage signaling her to follow him in order to show her the way to her room.
Oliver grinned at Johnny "You never told us you had a cousin our age…"
"Feh, she's not our age, she's three years younger! April's only 15… yet, she acts like a four year-old…"
Melody snickered and rested her head on her hand "Guess it runs in the family…"
Everyone laughed again while Johnny glared/blushed at her 'Damn girls… They always make me lose my patience…' he sat back and turned to Enrique "So, what did YOU think of my little cousin?"
Enrique gave it a thought, sending quick glances at Robert now and then "Hum, she's cute, but I think Robert's got there first…"
The older teen glared angrily at them "What on Earth do you mean by that?"
Melody giggled "Ya liked her, didn't ya Robbie-Chan?"
Robert's eyes widened as he jerked his head her direction "Wha- what did you call me?"
The girl blinked "Hum, Robbie-Chan?" she then gave it a though and sweatdropped "Guess I'm spending way too much time with Deenix! Hehe…"
Robert's shocked expression was still there as he sat back and sighed, staring at the ceiling '"Robbie-Chan"… it's been years since anyone has called me that…'
Oliver noticed Robert's clouded face and exchanged looks with Enrique and Johnny. He then looked back at his leader with a worried expression "Robert…"
He sighed again and waved his hand "Never mind… I'll be alright…"
Tyson suddenly noticed something was not right and stopped eating for a second to stare around him. He found the table in a weird awkward silence. "Er, is something wrong guys?"
Ray just shrugged while Max and Kenny grinned sheepishly at him. Kai remained as emotionless as usual and Melody just sent worried glances to Robert, who was looking pretty down. As for the rest of the Majestics, they seemed to be trying to cheer up their captain. Tyson blinked and turned to the door as someone went into the room. It was the girl he had seen a while ago between the pudding and the chocolate cake. Or was it the pizza and the milkshake? n-n'
Minx just stared at the people in front of her with a raised eyebrow "Whoa! Did anyone die?"
That did it. Robert couldn't take it anymore. He stood up and stomped out of the dinning room, his eyes getting watery.
The girl blinked at him and turned to her cousin "Was it sumthin' ah said?"
Johnny shook his head and rubbed his forehead "Just sit April…"
Minx glared at him "How many times d' ah hav' tah tell ya not tah call me that!" she stomped to the seat Robert had just left and turned her back on her cousin.
Melody sighed and turned to her robot "Deenix… come here…" She whispered something to her and the robot nodded as it left the room after Robert.
Kai snapped out of his trance and looked at Melody from the corner of his eye "Why did you send her after him?"
"'Cause I'm worried… he doesn't look so good and I'm afraid he might do something stupid…"
Enrique cocked his head "Robert? Nah… he wouldn't do that…"
Melody narrowed her eyes "That's what I was told about a friend I had when he left the room like that. And do you know what happened?"
Enrique shook his head slowly, eyes getting wider and wider. She sighed and jerked her head down "I went to check on him about an hour later and when I went into his room… I found him dead. He had hanged himself… not a pretty sight…"
Oliver and Enrique shuddered while Johnny and Kai glanced at each other, thinking. The rest of the boys were just gaping and suddenly feeling extremely worried. Minx bit her lower lip "When was tha'?"
"About six years ago… Or maybe it was more… I'm not sure… he wasn't the only case…"
Enrique swallowed audibly "S- six years ago? B- but you were just a kid then! Didn't it traumatize you or something?"
Melody shrugged "Nah… I was used to seeing worst things, so when I found him I just… called someone to get him as usual… I never was one to mourn over anyone's death… Guess that makes me a selfish insensitive bitch, but then again, that was how I was raised. No feelings, no pain, that's what they've always taught me. And I agree… Even though I don't always follow this…"
There was an awkward silence, in which Kai stared at her intently, his eyes narrowing "Who exactly told you that?"
Melody didn't answer. She just stood up and stretched a bit, trying to find a way to brake the awkward silence "Huh, anyone for Monopoly?"
Max and Tyson cheered immediately "Yay!"
The girl smiled at them and sensing eyes on her back, turned to the rest of the people on the table "Stop looking at me like I'm some Alien creature and come on!"
Johnny frowned as he turned to Kai "Is this normal?" The slate haired teen just shrugged "What, her mood swings? Yeah… it's kinda hard to get used to, but once you've made it, it's bearable I suppose… just don't contradict her and you'll be fine…" he sighed as the now laughing girl dragged him to where Max and Tyson were setting up the game. He frowned at her "WHY do you always drag me? I can walk you know…"
She just giggled and made him sit "Yeah, but it's more fun to make you wear out your soles!" n-n
"Whatever…"
About two hours later, Robert came back into the room accompanied by Deenix, who had an "I know" expression upon her face.
Melody cheered at her robot "Hey Dee! So how were things?"
Deenix gave her a weak smile and sat near her "Fine…"
Melody blinked "Huh, are you ok? Robert didn't try to do anything to you, did he?" she giggled as Robert blushed a bit and glared at her "Don't be ridiculous!"
Deenix laid down with her head on Melody's lap "I'm tired Melly-Chan… Goodnight…" she yawned as her eyes went out.
Melody stroked her robot with a worried expression. She then turned to Robert "Seriously, as something happened to her?"
The older teen shook his head and sat down on a nearby couch, his hand on his forehead while he watched Melody switching her bit-beast into a more comfortable position, a dreamy expression all over his features. He smiled lightly as he remembered what the robot had told him a while ago. It sounded almost impossible… but what if it was true? He was so afraid to believe… so afraid to feel his heart shatter again because of false hopes… He signed and closed his eyes, thinking about it.
Kai stared at her as well 'Why does she say she hardly ever cares when she acts so… caring towards everyone all the time? Even towards me she acts like she was my mother or something… maybe she has a split personality… I've heard of those cases… But she's different… one minute she's cold, the next minute she's warm… boy this girl is WEIRD…' he sighed and stood up looking at his watch. It read 23:00 PM. He growled and turned to leave to his room for a good night sleep. He had spent the whole day training with Melody and she had been one though cookie… sleeping looked like a good idea… he was at the door to his room when he felt someone behind him. He turned around swiftly to find a pair of tired sapphire eyes gazing at his. "Melody?"
She looked down at herself and back at him "Huh, yeah, I guess so… You going to bed? I'm tired too so…" she yawned and rubbed her eyes "Hm, I want my bed… and Deenix is getting a little heavy…" she stumbled a bit but quickly shook her head as she looked at him again with her brow raised "Cat got your tongue?"
Kai shook his head as he opened the door, allowing her to go in first. He went in as well and closed the door behind him. When he turned on the light, he realized something that left him pretty embarrassed. She had started taking her shirt off! "God Melody! I'm still here, ya know?" he snapped while he turned away blushing hard.
The girl glanced at him and removed her shirt blushing deeply and hoping he hadn't seen anything "Well, DON'T look then…"
Kai just growled something at her, which made her giggle a bit. 'Actually… this could be fun…' she sighed and turned to him "Aw, come on Kai! I ain't exactly naked so you don't need to act all gay!" She put on her pj's and smirked at him, who was still with his back turned to her "You're not afraid of me…" she wrapped her arms around his waist, making him jump a bit "…are you?" she whispered.
Kai blushed even harder and started sweating "Huh… what are you doing?"
She giggled and made him turn to her, to which he responded by covering his face and yell at her angrily "WHAT do you think you're doing?"
Melody took his hands and brought her lips to his ear "I'm already dressed you dingbat!" she giggled as she moved back.
Kai snapped his eyes open and found himself staring at her, already dressed with a turtle neck and pj pants "Oh… ok… er, aren't you hot with all that?"
She stepped back blushing a bit and looked at him with a raised eyebrow "No… er, why are you hyperventilating? Just get dressed and get to sleep… I wanna train tomorrow morning!" she then grinned sheepishly at him and laid down on her bed, staring at the ceiling.
The slate haired teen was going to lecture her about the way she had acted towards him a while ago but gave it up. It wasn't worth it anyways… so, he just frowned and got on his boxers, motioning to the bathroom afterwards. He was going halfway when a voice stopped him "Hey Kai! You have no idea of how nice the scenery is from here!"
He turned to her with an eyebrow raised to find her grinning at him. "Oh GOD! Please tell me you haven't…"
She cocked her head still grinning "Have what? Been staring at your ass? Why yes… I give it a ten out of ten!" she then just burst out laughing as Kai went red again and hurried into the bathroom, closing the door behind him. He stared at the mirror 'What have I gotten myself into?' He sighed and er… went about his business.
After THAT, he went back into the room STILL blushing and was surprised to find Melody lying in her bed with such a serious expression upon her face. He approached her and kneeled down beside her "What's up?"
She smiled "The ceiling… hehe…" she sat up and looked at him, a bit of regret spread all over her features "Look huh, Kai… Sorry about that a while ago… I was er… a bit on the loony side I guess…"
"No shit… that was the kind of thing Bimbo-girl would say… you got me freaked out for a while there…"
Melody grinned "Sorry! But I keep what I said about you acting all gay when you saw me stripping! You boys are all the same! You act all "Oh my! A bra!" and then as soon as you get the chance, you jump into some unsuspecting girl's pants! I wish I could see you the day you meet your girlfriend!" she giggled and pulled her sheets. She laid down again and picked Deenix covering herself and her afterwards "Goodnight Kai-Zer…"
Kai stared down at her, his eyes softening as she nestled Deenix against her chest "Why do you call me that?" he whispered.
She yawned again, her voice getting slurry "'Cause you're the Captain… and Kaisers were some emperor guys or something, right? So I think it's a cute pun!" n-n "'Night!"
Kai looked down at her thoughtfully "'Night Melody…" he turned to his bed and laid down as well, still thinking about the girl sleeping in the bed across his. For some reason, a while ago he had found himself tempted to peek at her while she striped… Kai blushed by this thought 'Since when am I a pervert?' he shrugged it off and closed his eyes, trying to get some sleep.
(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)
The next morning, Tyson woke up to find himself alone in the room he was sharing with the rest of the Bladebreakers 'Aw man… why didn't anyone awake me?' he thought while yawning his way to the bathroom.
Around ten minutes later, he was going down the stairs that led to the dinning room. He couldn't hear anything coming from there, so he presumed that the other teens had already gone out to train or something…
Shrugging, he dragged himself to the backyard, where Kai had said they would train the night before 'Train, train, train… is that all I'm good for? What about my breakfast?'
Down at the main lawn were Gustoff and some maids setting up tables for that night's party and coming from a bit farther away he could hear Johnny's voice complaining about something. So, he grinned and ran towards them, waving at Gustoff when he past him.
"HI GUYS! What did I miss?"
Melody grinned evilly at him "Tyson! Just the guy I needed! You didn't forget about the deal I made with Kai, did you?"
Tyson stopped his track and gulped "What deal?"
"Don't you remember? The day we met? When I battled you and YOU lost? I promised I'd train you, and it's about time I got you working out… So come here!"
Tyson sighed and dragged himself to where she was "Ok…"
Deenix took a small laptop from a panel she had on her chest and held out her hand "Can I see your Beyblade Ty-Chan?"
The raven haired boy gave it to her and watched as she sat down and typed something in the computer while she watched the top, making it glow weirdly at a point. "Huh, what's she doing?"
Melody shrugged "Seeing how it is and fixing it if necessary… You done Dee?"
The robot nodded and handed the top back to Tyson "I had to adjust the balance, but besides that it's fine. Your Bitbeast on the other hand…"
Tyson's eyes widened "Dragoon? Is something wrong with him? He won't die, will he?"
Deenix sweatdropped "Er, no… I just… er,… I mean er,…"
"JUST SAY IT ALREADY!"
The robot nodded and said it all in a quick, short and sweet way "Er, Dragoon asked me to tell you that he's very disappointed in you and that if don't improve your blading skills, he'll find himself another Master…" Deenix grinned sheepishly while Tyson collapsed crying.
"WAAAA! Even Dragoon is deserting me!"
Kai shook his head while the rest of the boys just fell over and Melody rolled her eyes "Get up! You won't get anything crying! Now come on! Let's start your training! Or do you want that to happen?"
"What? Of course not!" Tyson stood up with a determined look and nodded "Ok! What do I have to do?"
"First of all…" the girl sat down with her own laptop and directed it's camera to Tyson "I need to evaluate you so I can create a specific training program just for you… so do as I say, and we'll be done in around two hours… don't and we'll still be here tomorrow… and I guarantee you, you won't be leaving this place until I've got all I need… even if it takes all day."
Tyson pouted "Aw man! What about my breakfast?"
"You'll have it later! Now let me see your launching skills. Gimme your best shot!"
The other teens sat back on some benches nearby watching as Melody forced Tyson into actually doing something right for once.
Oliver smiled at them "She's good… does she have any experience in training other 'bladers?"
Kai shrugged "Yeah… Or at least she said so…"
Minx just watched them training and yawned 'How can someone enjoy a sport like this is beyond my understanding… oh well…' She stood up and made her way to the castle. Johnny chuckled at her "Where are ya goin' cuz?"
"Tah get me guitar… Ah'm BORED!"
He smirked at her as she kept going without turning around to face him "Be careful so you don't brake it on your way back here…"
"Fuck off…"
Robert cringed at her comment and turned to glare at Johnny "Haven't her parents taught her any manners?"
Johnny grinned "They've tried… GOD have they tried…"
At around 5PM…
"There! I'm done! By tomorrow you'll have your very own training program!" n-n
"About time too…" Tyson collapsed to the floor breathing hard "If this was just a test, I don't wanna know how a real training session is…"
Melody closed the laptop and stood up "In a word… exhausting… But don't worry! You'll cease fainting in exhaustion when it's over in a few weeks… Besides, it's not my fault it took me a whole day to take enough info on you! You better start working harder or else!"
The raven haired boy whimpered while the rest of the boys laughed at him, which made him feel even worst.
Minx smiled at Melody and took a look at her "Yo, ya can sing, right?"
Melody blushed a bit "Huh… yeah… why?"
"Ya know Nirvana, right?"
The other girl snickered "Who doesn't?"
"Heart-Shaped Box?"
"One of my favorites!"
Minx grinned "Ok then, ya know da lyrics, don' ya?"
Melody nodded after giving it a thought "Huh-hum… why?"
Minx grinned as she took a purple guitar from behind her "'Cause we're bored an' ah'm missing me a singer… ya up to it?"
The purple haired girl blushed "Me? But why me?"
Minx smirked "Kai told me ya had a great voice. And ah wanna check out if wha' he said is true… So, will ya give yar name sum justice?"
Melody blushed harder and sat next to her, glaring at the smirking slate haired teen "Ok… Ready when you are then…"
Minx smiled and started playing the introduction chords. She then nodded to the girl sitting next to her, who breathed in, readying herself. Then, she started.
"She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped Box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back
Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice"
Everyone gaped at her. She DID have a great voice! Robert was actually feeling happy for once. Melody smiled at them and continued.
"Meat eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on Angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your Highness I'm left black
Throw down you umbilical noose so I can climb right back
Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
Your advice
Your advice"
Melody lowered her head as she sang the last notes and blushed as the rest of the teens clapped and Max cheered madly "YAY! Go Melly!"
Minx chuckled at her "Tha' was great! Yar name does suit ya! I invited sum friends ova' to da party tha' play along with me in a little concert! Will ya join us? Please?"
The purple haired girl blinked "I dunno…"
Minx sent her a pleading look "Aw! C'mon! Please!"
Melody sighed and stood up "Ok… but I'm NOT doing more than one song… I don't like to draw too much attention on me…"
Minx squeaked and hugged her tightly "Thank ya SOOO much! Oh, one more thing, can ya play the piano? We're plannin' on makin' a special version arselves!"
Melody blinked at her and sweatdropped "Hum, yeah, but if you need someone to do it you better ask Dee…"
Deenix smiled openly at Minx "I'll do it gladly Mi-Chan!"
She cheered and jumped up and down squealing in joy "Yay!"
Enrique had stars in his eyes "This party is going to be the best EVER!"
Johnny nodded and nudged Robert "Yeah, for once we'll have decent music…"
Robert huffed at him "What's wrong with Strauss?"
Oliver shook his head "Nothing Robert… nothing…" he then looked around at the tables and tents the servants had been setting up "Hum, guess everything's ready… so… we only have to wait around two hours until the party starts! Time flies when you're having fun heh?" he grinned at the teens behind him. They all looked a bit tired, especially Tyson. "You all better get a nice bath and some rest or you won't make it…"
Minx turned sharply to Melody "OMG! We need tah get dress'd! C'mon Mel!"
Melody felt those alarm bells again "Dressed? Why?"
Minx looked at her as if she was some Alien "It's a party ya know? We need tah get sumthin' glamorous! C'mon! I'll help ya pick yar clothes!"
The other girl blushed "Huh… I have a… little problem…"
"What?"
She looked down at her own red dress and blushed "Well… this is the best dress I got ya see… No one told me I was supposed to get dressed to no party so I, er…"
Minx fell over "WADDAYA MEAN YA GOT NO DRESS?" she then sighed and dragged Melody to the castle "Never mind… I'll jest lend ya a dress of mah then! I'll get y'all preppy n' pretty! Ya'll see!"
"But I-"
"No BUTS! Now c'mon!"
Melody groaned as she got dragged into the castle with Deenix jumping after her as usual.
The boys stared at this and looked at each other. Robert rose an eyebrow at them "You DID bring decent clothes… didn't you?"
Ray blushed a bit "Huh, as in tuxedos? No… but I do have a white button shirt and black pants!" n-n
Robert nodded "It'll do I suppose…" he then turned to the rest of the boys "And you?"
Tyson and Max replied together "We got the same!"
"Me too!" Kenny cheered "And I'll be wearing this tie too!"
Johnny smirked "So Kai, I presume you forgot your formal clothes, right? I should've known a simpleton such as you would forget about something like that…"
Kai gave him a fed up expression "The same as them, but my shirt's black…" he then smirked at him as well "How about you? Will you finally wear that pink dress I saw in your closet the other day? I'm sure it'd suit you…"
Johnny growled at him and turned away "Shut up! Let's just go and get dressed already!"
Meanwhile, Minx, who was already dressed with a brown short dress, her scarf around her shoulders and dark brown high boots, was picking up some clothes for Melody, who was staring up at the ceiling, wondering when that would be over. "Hey! C'mere! I do need yar opinion ya know?" she sighed and got up, approaching Minx with a frown "Why can't I just bring this one?"
Minx looked at her as if she was crazy "B'cause, ya won't just be attendin' to a party, ya'll also be da lead singer of da best band eva'! Chaos Causers! So we need ya tah be all preppy! Okie?"
The other girl gave up and sighed "Fine… but I won't wear anything besides black and red!"
Minx bit her lower lip "Hum… tha' won't be very easy since most ah mah clothes are eitha' brown or black… Let's see… take these black boots… an' this black short dress… hum… Not too much, bu' it'll hav' tah do… I ain't got anythin' red… Ok now, try it out!"
Melody sighed and did so. She was going into the bathroom when Minx stopped her "Wah are ya goin' in there? We're all gurls, aren't we?"
She blushed and kept walking "I just… wouldn't feel comfortable…"
"Oh, ok… I understan'…"
Melody smiled and went into the bathroom, closing the door behind her. She was about to remove her long gloves when she remembered something "Er, can I keep the gloves?"
"Huh, sure! Wah not? It'll make ya look cool!" n-n
Melody smiled and got dressed. When she was done, she went to take a look in the mirror. It was pretty much like her own dress, but this one was tighter and also shorter. She thanked the Gods for the turtleneck and the long gloves she had… She took another look and gave a faint smile at herself. It wasn't half bad… She came out and blushed again as Minx commented on how she looked. Unfortunately for her, Minx wasn't done yet "Ok! Yar lookin' great! Now ta do ya' hair! C'mere!"
Melody cringed and backed away a bit "Can't I just leave it as it is? I like my ponytail…"
The other girl shook her head and made her sit by her vanity mirror "Let's see now… first, we'll untie it… now ah'll make a few braids an' I'll use sum wash off hair dye tah make ya sum cool blue streaks! How does tha' sound? An' let's not forget da make up! Ya'll be soooo pretty when ah'm done with ya!"
Melody pouted "This is ridiculous…" she looked over at Minx who just nodded dreamily and started brushing her hair with a pretty happy face 'I just hope the stupid dye really IS wash off…' she thought sighing.
Later when everything was ready for the concert…
Melody paced around in the room they had been given to wait at before the concert. Watching her with an amused face, were Minx and Deenix. "Where are those guys? I thought you said they'd be here!"
Minx stretched lazily "Dun' worry! The'll be here eventchally!"
As if someone had given them the hint, three boys barged in, two of them carrying guitar cases and all of them laughing their heads off at something. They stopped and took a look at Minx who glared at them "Yar late! Now be nice far once n' say hi tah our new lead singer!"
The boys turned to Melody and gaped at her. One of the boys, with crimson eyes and chocolate brown hair, ran to her and hugged her tightly squealing "Ya couldn't have gotten a better lead singer! Melly! I don't believe this! What are you doin' here?"
Melody patted him on the back "Er… hi Greg…" he broke the hug and looked her over with a bright smile "Ya haven't changed one bit!" he laughed and pointed at the other two boys, one of them, with another guitar case, had green eyes and blond hair and the other one was a redhead and she couldn't make out his eye color because he was wearing sunglasses. "These are Josh, the bass player and Don, our drummer! I've already told them all about you, so I won't be needing to introduce you! And I see ya already met our Minx!"
"Ya two know eachotta'?"
Melody giggled and pushed Greg off her nodding "Yeah, I knew him about two months ago when I was traveling around." She waved at the other boys and turned back to Minx "We better get going… we were supposed to have been on stage five minutes ago!"
Minx looked at her watch and blanched "EEK! Let's go! Guys! Grab yar stuff!"
She clutched Melody's hand and dragged her to the stage, closely followed by the boys and the little robot.
They ran out of the house and went up the stage hurriedly, where Enrique was waiting with a fed up look "About time! I was starting to worry about my personal safety! These people are nuts!"
Minx pinched his cheek "Dun' worry! Now gimme tha' mike so ah can introduce us!" she took the microphone and faced the crowd "Ok people! We're Chaos Causers, an' we'll be performin' a song by Korn with a few changes tah entertain ya, since apparently ya can't do it yarselves while yar not drunk yet!"
In the back of the crowd, were the Bladebreakers and the Majestics minus Enrique, watching everything. Johnny smirked proudly "That's my cousin alright!"
Max cheered "Hey! Look at Melly! Ain't she looking pretty tonight?"
Robert glanced at him and moved his gaze to the girl he was talking about 'She certainly looks different than usual… and apparently Kai likes it, judging by his face…' he thought with a smirk.
Kai in the mean time, couldn't take his eyes off Melody, who was looking pretty nervous in front of all those people 'When Minx said she'd make her all preppy, I never thought it would be THIS much… but funnily… it kinda… suits her…' his eyes softened and he blushed as she smiled his way. He was surprised to find himself smiling back a little smile of reassurance as Minx yelled out again.
"Ok! Here we go!"
The crowd cheered as Deenix sat at a set up keyboard and started playing the first notes and Melody took the mike from Minx 'God, I don't think I've ever been this nervous… and I haven't even practiced for this… oh God… It's me now!' Melody swallowed audibly and, after taking a breath, she started singing softly, her voice a bit shaky due to her nervousness.
"All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
And, you can try to tear me down…
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming…"
Don started drumming his plates in a 1, 2, 3, 4 way (I have NO idea if that's what you call them…) and the rest of the band soon joined in as Melody let out a sigh, releasing the air trapped in her lungs along with all her nerves. She forgot where she was and focused on her song.
The crowd went wild as she started singing with all her heart
"Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all the mercy down, down, down
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me
Come on, gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground
Why are you trying to make fun of me
You think it's funny
What the fuck you think it's doing to me
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying with your dirty ass in front of me
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
And, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming"
Images flashed through her mind while she sang. She could see it all again: Boris torturing her and her friends solely for his own enjoyment. That song turned into words what she wished she could do. Make him suffer and scream instead of her. She blinked back to reality and kept singing.
"Thumbing
through the pages of my fantasies
I'm above you, smiling at you, drown, drown, drown
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me
And I'll pull the trigger
And you're down, down, down
Why are you trying to make fun of me
You think it's funny
What the fuck you think it's doing to me
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying with your dirty ass in front of me
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
And, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming
All
my friends are gone, they died
They all screamed, and cried
Gonna take you down
Gonna take you down
Gonna take you down
Gonna take you down"
That song suited her life like a glove, which was probably why she liked it and was able to perform it so well. She remembered again the day Boris had punished her and her boys for loosing in the World's she did wish she could kill him, take him down… make him pay… tears prickled her eyes but she shook her head and sang out as loud as she could the two last choruses, wishing he could hear her.
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
And, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
And, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming
Melody whipped her head up as she heard the crowd cheering and hooting at her. Without knowing what else to do she blushed and bowed a little "Thank you…" she mumbled into the mike and smiled at her friends, who were watching her with eyes as wide as plates from the back of the crowd.
Kai just gaped at her, astounded 'Boy… that was…' Kai couldn't find the words. He swallowed and blinked 'The way she sang… it was as if SHE had written the song herself… like she had gone through all that…'
Minx laughed as Melody gave her the mike and got out of the stage hurriedly and really red. She smiled at her and turned to the crowd while the rest of the band got ready to leave as well "Thank y'all a bunch! Ya'r all great! We're all lookin' forward tah seein' y'all again, an' we hope ya feel dah same way! See y'all!"
(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)
Melody elbowed her way into the crowd, hoping that no one would see her until she got to her friends. After pushing aside a bunch of crazy people, she finally was able to see Max jumping around a bit further ahead. Grinning, she sped up her pace, but just when she was finally out of the crowd, she tripped on something and fell flat on her face right in front of Robert who cringed a bit in surprise "Melody? What are you doing here? Are you alright?" he helped her up and wiped the back of her dress, while she coughed a bit "Rob? Where can I go wash my face? This makeup is itchy as Hell!"
Robert pointed inside "Go through the kitchen and then through the dinning room. Then you go up the first flight of stairs you find and turn right. It's the second door on the left side of that corridor. By the way, you did very well!"
She coughed again "Thanks… But I think I got a part of the lyrics wrong… Er, I'll be right back… Oh, and tell me if you see Deenix, k? I think I lost her in the crowd…"
Robert nodded and looked around. Huge columns were playing some weird uncouth music and everyone was either making out, or drinking; either in drinking contests, or simply drinking to pass the time… 'How do I know such uncouth people is beyond me… oh well…' he then saw something that shocked him. Kai and Johnny were drinking beer after beer, keeping an eye on each other and apparently, trying to drink more than each other as well. A few seconds later, Johnny started wobbling a bit and turned around to throw up, apparently making Kai the winner since he hooted as he tossed the empty can at Johnny "HA! I won! I told ya I'm better than you at everything!" he then laughed out like a maniac and took another can of beer, which he emptied in no time, grinning at his opponent.
Robert shook his head 'And I thought he was responsible… I can't believe Kai's drunk!' he went to talk to Kai, who was currently emptying a bottle of liquor "Kai, WHAT do you think you're doing?"
The slate haired teen raised an eyebrow at him and laughed "What does it look like? I'm enjoying myself! Want some?" he offered him the bottle grinning widely. It was a scary vision…
"No thank you…" Robert sighed and turned away from him deciding the best thing to do would be to find Melody. She would make him snap out of it.
Meanwhile, Melody had gotten rid of the makeup and was passing the time with Minx and the rest of the band near the drinks tent. Don had a shaker in his hands and was putting it to good use "Just wait 'till ya try this special recipe of my own! You'll love it! Meanwhile… Josh! Get her something!"
Josh nodded and took a small bottle from his pocket. Melody just stared at it feeling a bit apprehensive "Hum, what exactly is that?"
The boy smirked at her "Something you'll really enjoy! I guarantee ya! Here!"
Melody took it, still not feeling so sure about that "But it's not too strong, is it?"
Josh grinned sheepishly "Strong? Nah! Go ahead and try it!"
She shrugged and took a sip "Hum… not too bad…" she gave a few gulps until she realized the bottle was almost at half and gave it back to Josh "Woops! Guess I got a little carried away heh? Sorry!" she then giggled. She didn't know why, but she was feeling extremely happy and careless. Besides a slight dizziness, she felt in heaven! "Hey Don! Is that thing ready yet?"
Don blinked at her and gave her a glass full of the mix "Huh, sure… here!"
"Thanks a bunch!" Melody drank it quickly and grinned at them. Greg raised an eyebrow at her as she took another glass of the mixture and drank it even faster "Er, Melody… are you feeling alright?"
"Sure am! Actually, I feel like dancing! Who wants to join me?"
Josh bit his lower lip while the other three stared at her wide eyed. Suddenly, someone called out from behind them "Melody! Come quick!"
The group turned to face Robert, who ran their way with a pretty concerned face "Kai's drunk and utterly embarrassing himself! You have to do something!"
Melody giggled and jumped on him hugging him tightly, which made him blush A LOT "He'll be fine! Did I ever tell ya I really like ya? Yar soooooooo sweet to me! It's just as if ya were my big brother and I luv ya for bein' soooo nice tah me!" Melody giggled while she gave him a peck on the cheek and stepped back still giggling as Robert took a sad expression and mumbled "Big… brother…?"
Minxes' eyes were really wide "Josh! Wha' the hell was in tha' bottle ya gave her?"
Josh grinned sheepishly scratching the back of his head "Well, ya see… I, er-"
"ANSWER ME!"
"Er… absinthe? He he…" he cowered as Minx glowered at him "I'm sorry! I thought she could handle it!"
"HANDLE IT? ARE YA CRAZY? Don'tcha know tha' it only takes a sip of that crap tah stone a guy? What were ya thinking?" Minx towered over Josh as he apologized in every way he knew.
Robert glanced at Melody who was nudging him "C'mon! let's go get Kai!" he nodded feeling a bit apprehensive and took her with him away from those uncouth people "I can't believe even YOU are drunk! This is unbelievable!"
Melody retorted "Hey! I'm not drunk:hiccup:"
The boy sighed and suddenly felt someone pulling him by his shirt. It was Oliver "Robert, I think Enrique really over did it this time! He won't stop throwing up and he's really pale, you better come and take a look at him!"
He nodded and turned to Melody, who was bouncing around "Melody? I have to go check on Enrique. You go and get Kai, ok? I want the both of you in the kitchen, do you understand? I'll meet you there in a while."
"Yes captain! I'm on it!" she grinned sheepishly and sang a Christmas carol while she stumbled her way to the table Kai was lying on, STILL emptying his liquor bottle.
Oliver threw her a weird look "What's with her?"
"Drunk. The bass player gave her absinthe or something…"
"That's bad…"
Robert sighed and went with him to check on Enrique, while Melody went to get Kai. Or so he thought…
Melody tripped and had to place her hands on the table to maintain balance. She hiccupped and glanced at the guy lying on the table "Hey Kai-Zer! C'mon! You're supposed to come with me!"
Kai slowly turned his head to face her and gave her a clueless look "Why?"
She got up stumbling a bit "Cuz Robert said so… Now come on!"
He stared at her for a bit and sat up, finishing his bottle and following her after using it to make a basketball style toss into the pool "WOO! I'M DA KING! Er, twiggy? Where are we going?"
She shrugged "Dunno… He told me to go to somewhere but I don't remember where… maybe we should go looking for him…" Melody then glared and poked at his chest, her voice going really slurry "And don't call me "twiggy" again or I'll kick your worthless ass!" she hiccupped.
Kai laughed and put his arm around her shoulder "Ok! Where do we start looking?" n-n
She closed her eyes, thinking "Hum… how about the bedrooms? I bet he's in one of them with some girl!"
"…Or some boy!" Kai laughed again and was soon joined by Melody, who tapped him hard on his back and ran "Tag! You're it! Catch me if ya can!"
He coughed and smirked at her "Oh yeah?" he ran after the girl, chasing her around the entrance hall and earning weird looks from the servants. Melody giggled as she ran up the stairs and turned left. She started opening every door on the right side of the corridor, while Kai opened the ones on the other side grinning madly at her "I'm gonna beat ya!"
"Oh no ya won't!" they just kept doing it, interrupting several couples in the meantime until they reached the last door at the same time. They grinned evilly at each other, their hands almost touching the knob. Melody smirked and jumped closer to him with a loud "BOO!", making Kai stammer back and giving her the chance to go into the room first, giggling like a maniac and closing the door behind her. She looked around and smirked as she noticed the room was empty. She quickly hid behind a curtain as she heard Kai stumbling in. "Where are ya, ya little…" He then turned to the curtains as he heard someone's muffled laughing coming from behind them. He smirked "Gee… I wonder where Melody is?"
Kai abruptly pulled the curtain away revealing Melody behind it, covering her mouth as she laughed uncontrollably. "I caught you!" he said in a sing song voice.
Melody grinned mischievously at him, causing him to quirk an eyebrow at her. She then giggled and grabbed him, whipping him around and making him stay pinned against the wall.
She chuckled lightly and brought her lips closer to his ear as she sang as well "No… I caught you…" Melody smirked as she felt Kai shiver from the sound of her voice. She drew back a little and looked him in the eyes with a devious smirk "You're not afraid of me… are you?"
Kai snorted "I fear no one!"
"Really?" the girl got her face closer to his, her body completely against his and her lips hovering over his own, making Kai starting to feel quite tense "Melody-"
She chuckled lightly again and raised her eyes up to meet his "I think you're lying… if you weren't afraid of me, you wouldn't be so tense now, would you?" she grinned and nibbled his earlobe.
Kai gritted his teeth and scolded at her "Stop that Melody… I'm warning you…"
Melody smirked at him "Or you'll what?" she crushed herself against him and groped him, snickering as he groaned "You ARE afraid…"
Kai growled at her comment and fisted her hair, pulling her head back "No I'm NOT!" he roared as he kissed her harshly, desperately. Melody parted her lips almost immediately and cupped his neck with one hand, while the other one trailed a finger down his back, sending shivers up his spine and making him groan as he deepened the kiss, generously paying her back for her groping a while ago and crushing her against him.
The alcohol and especially the lust were taking over rather quickly as they got rid of their shoes and gloves in Melody's case and started moving across the room closer to the bed, hardly ever breaking apart from each other.
"Kai…" Melody moaned as Kai trailed kisses across her jaw line and her neck. She suddenly giggled making him stare up at her with a confused look. She tugged at the hem of her short dress "Ya know what? I don't like this stupid dress much…"
He smirked and broke away "So? I think it suits ya… but right now, I think it'd suit the carpet better…"
"THAT was the corniest comment I've ever heard…" She giggled as he went closer again and sucked her earlobe. Melody gave him a pleading look "Aw, come ON! Help me unzip it! Or will ya act all gay again? If ya do, I ain't playing anymore!" she pouted childishly as he chuckled at her posture.
"I don't think so…" Kai claimed her lips again and ran his hands up her back, feeling for the zipper. As soon as he found it, the dress was thrown to the floor and Melody was pulled back until she tripped over something soft and fell back on it. She broke the kiss and giggled "Watch it or we'll break the bed…"
Kai ignored her as he kept kissing her neck, ignoring the strange rough patches around it and got rid of her bra as well, cupping her breasts and sucking at the tips, causing her to moan and fist the back of his shirt. Her eyes snapped open as she felt the silky material. "Get rid of it…" she said in a husky but mandatory tone. Her partner sat up and ripped the shirt off literally while she unbuckled his pants hurriedly. Kai kicked them off in no time and hauled her into a more comfortable position reaching for her butt again.
Melody frowned and grabbed his wondering hands "Oh no ya don't! Now it's MY turn to have fun!" She swiftly got on his lap and slammed him down "There! I'm playing the Kaiser now! And you'll have to do as I say or else…"
Kai smirked at her. He was actually enjoying this "Or else what?"
She leaned down and nibbled at his lower lip "Or else I'll keep all the fun to myself… ya know I can do it…" she giggled as he growled at her and tried to get back to his dominant position again "Huh-huh!" she pinned his arms above his head and tsked "Your mom should have taught ya to obey those who are above you! Kaiser says… NO moving, and NO touching!" she chuckled and leaned down again, this time to smoothly trail his collarbone with her tongue while she ran her hands along his arms. He groaned as she trailed kisses down his chest, where she stopped at the nipple, biting down on it gently, smirking at the effect she was having on him.
Melody could feel his breathing getting ragged and heavier as she trailed her tongue down his abdomen, then up again to stop at his neck, sucking at it. She kept kissing his neck until she stopped at his shoulder, grinning widely "Hum, can I pretend I'm a vampire now?" she bitted down before he could answer and smirked as Kai let out a groan "Guess I can huh?" she chuckled and licked the bite mark, earning another groan.
He moaned out loud as she ran her hands down his bare chest and felt he really had to take over again before he went insane. "That's enough…" Kai pushed her off him, earning a complaint and claimed her lips once more as he removed her panties and got rid of his boxers as well "I want you… And I want you NOW!"
She chuckled "Really? Ya do?"
Kai looked her in the eyes, and gave her a lopsided grin as he leaned down again and kissed the hollow of her neck, slurring "Ever since I saw you… Ever since you've came into my life I've wanted to have you… And I'm done waiting now…" he kissed her harshly, with the same desperation. Melody purred at his words, parting their kiss again "Quite in a hurry aren't we? I thought I told you I ain't playing this way…" she giggled and nibbled his earlobe while he got himself between her legs. He pushed her off him and glared at her "Shut it! This isn't a game! I've waited long enough to take you and-" His features softened as a glint of worry peaked from behind all the desire in Melody's eyes when she felt him against her. Those eyes… the eyes he had wanted to drown in since the first time he had seen her. He kissed her lips gently as he got ready. "You a virgin, huh?"
She nodded lazily, to which he sighed "This might hurt ya know…" he slurred, the alcohol obviously taking complete control over him (not that it hadn't already…).
She made an impatience sound "No shit Sherlock! I've been through all kinds of pain ya can think of so, I don't think this will kill me. Now quit acting all gay and DO IT ALREADY!" she kissed him heatedly and lifted her hips slightly, sighing against his lips, readying herself for the upcoming sharp pain she had heard so much about. Kai kissed her back with the same passion and gave a powerful, fast thrust as he went inside her, gaining a whimper from his partner "Juss relax… it won't hurt in a while… I think…" he husked in the same slurry voice.
Melody somehow still managed to find it in herself to giggle at his confusion as she wrapped her arms around his neck and hid her face in his shoulder, gritting her teeth as he buried himself deeper inside her and the pain increased. She felt Kai kissing her collarbone harshly as he began thrusting in and out of her. He rocked his hips against her slowly, and she could feel the pain gradually disappearing to give place to something else as he increased the speed and force of his thrusts. She couldn't hold back a moan. She had never felt this way, she had never really experienced any other physical sensation besides pain, and she was enjoying every little bit of this new one. She moaned louder as she felt something blooming inside her. Kai groaned back at her as he too felt the same, pulling her impossibly closer to him as it took over him. Then, it happened.
Melody arched and cried out as an unspeakable heat rush took over her senses and held onto Kai as he too moaned out loud and felt his strength failing him, causing his whole body to collapse crushing him down on her, breathing hard.
Melody tried to calm her breath and to get him off her, but he was too heavy and she felt like her limbs had turned into jelly, so she just sighed and kissed him gently on his lips, as she flickered the hair he had plastered on his forehead. He kissed her back and pulled her closer (if that's possible), earning another complaint "Ow! Get off me! You're no feather ya know?" she giggled.
Kai sighed and got off her, moving to her side, covered in sweat and breathing hard, but still feeling like he had never felt before. Melody smiled at him and pulled the sheets up to cover them, nestling against his chest and kissing him again. She yawned and closed her eyes, feeling the exhaustion and the alcohol finally taking their toll out of her. Kai kissed her forehead and wrapped his arms around her. She could feel her consciousness abandoning her, and apparently, the same happened to her partner, since his breathing was slowing down gradually. She was practically asleep, but she still managed to feel him tighten his grip on her as he whispered, almost inaudibly "I love you…"
RR PLEASE! n-n
