KAI POV

It was drawing closer and closer to midnight with every step I took, I was walking aimlessly, getting nowhere quickly...my legs seemed to have a mind of their own. I was exhausted, right after my match with Ray, I laid down for a bit and immediately after that I left to train under the steady Australian sun.

I always found that I concentrated better with a cooler temperature, maybe because I was born and raised in Russia, or maybe because a certain raven haired blader has been on my mind a lot lately.

Over these past few weeks it's almost as if I've seen in him a whole new light...heh, I'm one to talk about light. He just seems so much more...captivating. No not captivating, there's no word in the world that could describe the beauty that was Ray...In all my life I never thought I'd have said something like that, funny how life works.

In my mind I always knew I had a thing for the golden-eyed teen, but accepting it was another thing. I'd thought for a long while it was just plain old teenage hormones and it'll blow over when something new came along. But it didn't. Slowly I started to get used to the fact that it may be more than a crush...that took a bout a year. Actually admitting to myself that I may love him...note the may, took about two years.

So my legs finally stopped carrying me away, seems to be a café...and Ray, what's he doing here? He should be in bed resting, arg! This is so annoying, there's not one minute my minds not on him. What I found was strange though was that one minute I was walking by the next I was seated at his table...I'll just go ahead and order a coffee and hope this is some crazy dream of mine.

RAY POV

I couldn't believe it, Kai here, with me, in this café. What was going on? This was so un-Kai like. Well it doesn't seem like he's going to start a conversation anytime soon so I might as well say something. This awkward silence is killing me.

"So...Kai." I cleared my throat racking my brains for something to say, "What brings you here?" No! Stupid, stupid, stupid! He's here for coffee, what else could he be doing here. Arrh, I'm so clueless at times!

Kai didn't say a word, typical, he just scanned the upper half of my body with those powerful crimson pools, taking in even the slightest of details.

A waiter walked up to our table and made himself known by lightly clearing his throat, "Your butter croissants will be completed in 5-10 minutes." The waiter placed a steaming ceramic cup of coffee before my former captain and sharply turned on his heel to leave.

I watched intently as Kai's strong hands closed around his mug and slowly raised it of the table and bought it to his pale lips, sipping lightly and running his tongue over his bottom lip, draining the hot liquid that had refused to go in.

Kai had done that a couple times before I realized I should really stop starring at him, he'd think I was a lunatic for sure.

That would top of what he probably already thinks of me; uncanny, dense, pathetic, a awful beyblader...and the list goes on. Of course that's only a rough outline of what's possibly running through that magnificent head of his. On the other hand he could be considering the good points about me; levelheaded, sturdy, bright, endearing...who am I kidding, the great Kai thinking I'm endearing, that's a one in a million.

I could tell Kai wanted to say something, he opened his mouth but suddenly shut it as the waiter reproached, curse that damn waiter. I had to bite back a growl as that pompous fool stuck his nose in the air like he was better than everyone else or something like that.

"You're croissants are ready." He bowed curtly and left.

To tell you the truth I was impressed with the service here, the waiting period was short and the waiters and waitress were basically pleasant and highly efficient. Sadly, everything comes with a price; they probably expected a huge tip.

My stomach growled slightly but I decided to ignore it sipping at my coffee. It wasn't like I couldn't afford a measly croissant or anything, I was just temporarily short on change, the only note I had in my pocket was 50$...which reminds me, I haven't yet to convert my money, the last I did was at the tournament in America.

Man those croissants look so tasty, I hope I'm not drooling, gods I hope I'm not drooling, how utterly embarrassing it would be if I was.

"Eat."

I had to force myself to sit still in my chair, Kai's voice was like heaven, music to my ears, the tomato sauce to my pasta, the gravy to the fries-I should really stop now, Kai's starring at me...probably because I have a stupid look on my face...or maybe I have a milk moustache, wait this is coffee...maybe I have a coffee moustache!

"Huh Kai?" That was lame, Kai said something and I was too busy daydreaming to pay any attention to him. Even though my little daydream was concerning him.

Kai sighed deeply, great 10 minutes into our little encounter he's already fed up with me.

"I said, 'eat.'" Kai clarified what he said earlier, making my clouded brain a little less...clouded.

Kai shifted in his seat and moved forward slightly, pushing the silver platter filled with crispy croissants closer to me.

I starred down at the plate and back up at Kai, he had shifted again to lean back in his chair, cup of coffee in one hand. I sort of miss the closeness between us, I could feel the warm air of his steady breathing upon my lips...it felt so right.

I peered down at the croissants once again, Kai paid for these...it wouldn't be right to shove them down my greedy throat.

"No thank you Kai, I think I'll pass." I smiled politely sipping at my coffee.

"Don't act stubborn Kon, you're body needs all the nourishment it can get...for it to fully heal."

Kai's voice started of strong as if I was a 5 year old child who was being scolded, then he paused for a while making me wonder if he would continue, he did. This time his voice held a softer tone to it, although not completely losing its iciness.

I smiled halfheartedly, if Kai was so concerned about my well being, why did he hurt me? Despite his tone of voice I could tell that somewhere buried deep within him...Kai truly did care for me. That lifted my spirits enough to grab the top most croissant and bit into the soft dough.

"Thanks Kai." I smiled once again, it may be stupid, but all I could ever do when I was around Kai was smile stupidly...he didn't seem to mind though.

"Don't mention it." Kai smirked and grabbed a croissant himself.

No smile? That's OK. You know what they always say; you can't change a man by accepting his croissant...well at least I think that's what they say.

We eat in silence for a while and it was starting to get to me again, I think it was bothering Kai also since he started talking once more, something I didn't expect him to do.

"Have you been to the doctors yet?" He asked putting aside his coffee. I guessed he was finished with it.

"Not yet, I'm planning to go tomorrow though." I replied drowning was left of my burning mixture of anti-sleep potion, at least that's what I like to call it.

"How are you going get there?" Kai raked his fingers through his hair while wiping his mouth on a napkin.

"Walking I guess." I really didn't know how I was going to get there, I didn't want to ask my team to accompany me because they would be lecturing me the whole way there, that I was sure of.

Kai raised his perfect brow as if to say; you've got to be kidding me, "Do you have any idea how long you'd have to walk to get there Ray?"

I shook my head numbly, I felt if I said something It'd come out wrong so I settled for telling Kai I had no clue by shaking my head.

"Thought as much." Kai seemed oddly satisfied with my answer so I starred at him quizzically, without saying anything.

"I'm not doing anything tomorrow so met meet me at the front entrance of the Redskin buildings (1), 7:30am sharp." Grabbing his coat from his chair Kai left, not looking back once.

It took me a while to register what Kai had said; 9:30am, Redskin buildings...Redskin buildings! Yikes! That's got to be the most expensive suites in the country! Heh, figures Kai would live in luxury, after his Grandfather passed away and Kai being the only living descendant...he has billions of dollars to waste away.

Well better get going if I want a good night's sleep in order to wake up in time tomorrow. Don't want to make Kai wait now do I?

KAI'S POV

Replaying the previous events in my head I realized I was almost relived when Ray said he'd be walking to the hospital and those White Tiger brats wouldn't be accompanying him. Heh, the look on Ray's face was priceless when I told him to meet me at 7:30am, guess my kitten isn't used to waking up early.

Chuckling to myself I shook that thought out of my head, Ray wasn't mine, not yet at least.

RAY'S POV

I was glad I had my own suite, 'Captains privileges' Mr. Dickenson had said. I honestly didn't care, just as long as I wasn't sharing a room with anyone else.

Funny, whenever I had to share a room with Kai, I was only too happy, even if I was sharing a bed with him. Actually I preferred sharing a bed with Kai, unlike in the day time at night he radiates warmth, and plus I feel so safe with him so close by.

I turned on my side wishing Kai were there now, it was awfully cold and I dearly missed my unsociable captain. Then again, he did prove to me today that he was capable of showing compassion; even if it was slight...it was still enough for me.

NOTE:

There we go! All done, I tried not to leave it as a cliffy so I hope you like!
