Running through the rain, Reeni fought back the tears that were threatening to fall again. she stil couldn't believe the fact that he would do this to her. Carrying on through the wet weather, she trudged back home and started to sulk for the remainder of this sorry day.


Kai sighed again, for the umpteenth time and walked slowly back to the school, hands in his pockets, clutching the small chain, running his fingers across the engraving over and over.

Upon entering the school, he was hailed by the girl, Frances, who he had been caught with.

'Kai! Honey!' she simpered.

'get away from me.' The bluenette hissed.

The blonde looked surprised. 'b-but….i thought…'

'well you're wrong.' He snapped, cutting her off before she could finish whining.

The girl turned on her heels and marched away angrily.

Minutes later, ray and max hurried up to him.

'kai!' the chinese boy called. 'did Reeni find you?…….and why are you all wet?'

'she found me alright!' he said, getting angry.

'oh…..'

'I know, I know, it's my fault. But how can I be so stupid as to forget what day it was today?' kai continued, his voice rising.

'its okay, man. I mean, you can try and make her forgive you…that is, if you still want to..' max said softly

nodding, the bluenette swept past them as the bell rang and walked into his homeroom. Not bothering to greet his teacher and friends, he walked straight past them and seated himself in the chair at the very back.

Calling for attention, the teacher stood at the front. And beside him was a boy, spiky red hair, turquoise blue eyes. He was muscular and lean and showed a sign of definate maleness, not much different than kai himself.

'I would like you to meet our new student. Who has transferred here from Russia. Would you like to tell the class your name?' he asked the boy beside him.

'Tala.' Was the short response.

'tala……?

'valkov.'

'ah, welcome mr. Valkov. If you could just take a seat beside mr. Hiwatari there.' The teacher gestured to kai in the back. Nodding, the redhead proceeded down the aisle. Few girls leaned in and giggle to themselves or each other.

'names tala valkov. What about yours?' he asked as he sat down beside kai.

'kai hiwatari.' He answered, starting to like the boy.

'cool.'


The next day, kai looked around the halls for any sign of Reeni.

'what, or who are you looking for?' tala asked from beside him. In one day, the two had become good friends.

'just a friend of mine.' He answered shortly.

As the bell rang, signaling the beginning of the day, they walked into their class and seating themselves at the back again.

10 minutes into the lesson, the opened and Reeni walked in. kai's heart skipped a beat.

'sorry im late, sensei.' She apologized.

'that's ok, just try and be on time next time.' He said to the girl, sensing something had been amiss. Looking around the classroom, he continued. 'I gave your usual seat to our new student, maybe you could find a new seat? Or would you like your old one back?'

'no im perfectly fine with a new seat.' She said, smirking inwardly.

There was only one available seat in the class, and it was in front of Tala. Oh well, she had to make do with it so far.


Reeni's POV.

If I have my way, I would've chosen a seat far away from that blue-haired guy. Oh well, guess it's only for today. Say…..whos that new guy? And…er…why is he looking at me like that?..


Tala's POV

Woah……

One word: hot.

I smirked, now here's someone I can really introduce myself to. Who knows, it could turn into something more.


Normal POV

Tala smirked as Reeni drew near, his eyes flickered up and down her figure. Kai's eyes narrowed. He didn't like his almost-best friend to start drooling over Reeni. But right now, he couldn't do anything about it, she wasn't his anymore.

'man.' Tala whispered to him. 'that's one helluva girl.'

Putting a grin on his face, he nodded with approval.

'hey there.' Tala greeted the girl as she sat down.

'hey' she replied.

'im-'

'tala, I heard.' She said, turning around slightly to look at him.

'oh cool. Have you met kai here?' he asked.

'yes I have actually.' She said coolly. Kai winced.

'oh I see…hey listen you doing anything today after school? If not, we, or I could take you to some place.' Tala suggested.

'and where would that be?' she asked.

'anywhere you wanna go.' He replied, smirking.

'you would actually do that for me?' she asked, raising her eyebrows.

'i'd a lot of things for you, babe.' He answered coyly.

Reeni smirked, noticing the strained look on Kai's face.

'we'll see.' She said and turned back. Maybe getting over kai wasn't going to be impossible, like she thought it would. She could tell Tala wasn't a player, just a boy who just likes to have girls by his side, adoring him. But not at once. she had to admit, he was cute…well, if not cute, then quite hot. But just because she thought that, doesn't mean she would go out with him. Hell, she even thought Johnny was good looking, but she probably wouldn't want to go out with him. Then a idea popped into her head. wanting to test kai's faith and heart, she decided that shes going to take this opportunity. She'd going to teach a certain bluenette the meaning of jealousy.
