Chapter 15: Love Blooms like a Night Flower

(That night)

"Bye you guys!" Blair said starting to walk home. Hilary already left for her house and her team was walking to their hotel. Blair was on her way home when she saw a familiar shadow lurking in the darkness.

"Out around town at this time of night again huh?" Blair asked. The figure made a small smile and came out to join her. "Same with you." The voice said. "Yah but I'm not out here freely. I'm walking home." Blair said with a smile. Kai came up beside her and started walking with her. "So why are you out here?" Blair asked. Kai shrugged. "Just enjoying the night." He replied.

Blair's POV

Here we were again. Both outside just talking to each other at night. I really wonder why he's never like this during the day. During the day he acts so...different. I looked up at the brightly shining moon. Maybe I can try to find out.

"Pretty isn't it?" Kai asked. I looked at him and nodded. "Just like you." He added so quietly I barely heard it. I blushed at the comment. "You really mean that?" I asked making sure I heard what I thought I heard. He nodded. I smiled at him. "Um...Kai?" I asked. He looked at me but kept walking. "Yah?" He asked. "Can I ask you something?" I asked trying not to stutter. I had a bad feeling about this question. "Sure." He said. "W-why are you never like this during the day?" I asked.

"What?" He asked. "I'm sorry but...During the day your quiet and cold. But whenever I see you at night...you actually talk and you seem nice and happy." I explained.

He stopped walking for a second but regained his posture. He closed his eyes. I walked slowly with him awaiting an answer.

Kai's POV

When she asked me if she could ask me a question. It was not a question that I really wanted to answer. I knew she was right. But what she doesn't know is that I only act like this when I'm around her. Alone. Not just at night. My mind was racing trying to decide what to do. Tell her or not. And if I do what do I say? I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out. I sighed and got ready to speak once again.

Regular POV

They seemed to be frozen in silence. Blair was awaiting for an answer. "I-it's kind of hard to explain." Kai started. Blair didn't want to push him any farther. "It's ok. I understand." Blair said with a smile. Kai smiled. 'To bad he doesn't smile during the day.' Blair thought. "Heh. You should smile more often. It makes you cuter than you already are." Blair said with a wink.A blush appeared on Kai's face.

They neared Blair's house. They stopped at the mailbox and turned to face each other. "Thanks for walking me home Kai." Blair said politely. "Your welcome." He answered. She started to walk away when he gently grabbed her hand and spun her back in towards him. They were now face to face barely apart. Kai leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss. Blair was surprised at the sudden gesture but returned the kiss.

They pulled apart gasping for air. Blair started to blush. She looked down letting her mostly crimson colored hair fall in front of her. She looked up at him again and smiled. Hair on one side of her face was hanging in front of her eyes. Kai gently tucked it behind her ear. He gave her a short kiss before she left.

Blair walked up to her door taking one last glance at Kai. She opened and walked into the house. Once inside she closed the door and leaned against it. 'I think I'm falling in love with the phoenix.' She thought. She walked up to her room and got ready for bed.

(Next Day)

"Go Lionaris!" Trisha said. Flare was knocked out and landed beside the dish. Weirdly, Blair didn't seem to notice what just happened until she heard it touch the ground. Blair bent down and picked up her orange blade. Trisha lifted up her hand and caught her blade.

"Ok What's up with you today?" Trisha asked in a serious tone. "Nothing. Why do you ask?" Blair asked. "Maybe because I'v beaten you 5 times in a row. Oh and maybe because you keep zoning out on us." Trisha said simply. She looked at Blair who seemed to be zoning out again. Trisha growled quietly. 'I know how to get your attention.' Trisha thought. She put her blade and got ready to launch it at Blair. Or more importantly the thing in Blair's hand. The orange blade. She launched it and Blair snapped back into reality and snatched the incoming yellow blade in mid air.

"What do you think your doing?" Blair asked in a not so happy tone. "Trying to get your attention. You zoned out again." Trisha said walking up towards her to get her blade back. "Oh." Blair said handing Trisha her blade. "Tell me what's on your mind." Trisha said. "Nothing." Blair said. "Nothing huh? I know when there's something wrong with my best friend." Trisha said with a smirk. "Fine you got me. But you cannot tell anyone else." Blair said. "I promise." Trisha said. "Then come over to my house tonight for dinner." Blair said. Trisha smiled. "Ok Ally! Jessie. Let's see what you can do." Blair said.

3...2...1...Let it Rip!

All four of the blades landed on the ground.

"Hopperis." "Aquaria" Ally and Jessie said together. Their blades came close together and got ready to attack. Blair and Trisha looked at each other and nodded. "Double Twin attack!" They said together. All blades made contact and a small explosion took place. They shielded their eyes from the almost blinding light. The smoke and light cleared to reveal a tie between the four blades.

"Great job you too! You are now equally matched with us again. The pairings will be Ally and Trish, and Jessie and I. But we'll do that later." Blair said.

(Later at Blair's house)

Ding Dong. The doorbell rang throughout the house. "Blair can you get the door?" Her mom asked busy in the kitchen making dinner. Blair ran down the stairs to the door and opened it. "Hey Trish! Come in." Blair said happily opening the door wider.

The two girls went up to Blair's room and sat on the bed. "Ok now spill. What was on your mind today?" Trisha asked. "Remember no telling." Blair said. "Yes I remember. Now stop stalling!" Trisha said. "Kai." Blair said quietly. "I'm not getting yah." Trisha said. "I'v been thinking about Kai." Blair said. "Why do sudden. You've like never mentioned the dude until now." Trisha said. "He...walked me home last night...and..." Blair started. "And what?" Trisha asked. "We kissed." Blair finally said. Trisha smiled. "You kissed! Aww that's so romantic." Trisha said. Blair blushed. "No telling anyone yet." Blair assured once again. "Don't worry. Your secret is safe with me." Trisha said giving a wink. Blair smirked. "So you like anyone yet?" Blair asked. "Me! N-no." Trisha answered stuttering a bit. "Why are you stuttering?" Blair asked suspiciously. "No reason. The question was just do sudden that's all." Trisha said. "I think you do..." Blair started. "Nope no one at all." Trisha said crossing her arms. "One of the bladebreakers?" Blair asked urging Trisha to spill the beans. "Drop it." Trisha said threatening. "Or else what?" Blair said stepping into dangerous ground. "Or else this." Trisha said hitting Blair with a pillow. "Pillow Fight!" Blair said with a smile.

(20 minutes later)

Both Trish and Blair were laying on the bed catching their breath. "You really wanna know?" Trisha asked. "Yah. I spilled now it's your turn." Blair said. "Well you got me there. I think Max is cute." Trisha said. "Thought so." Blair said. "So you like the tortoise and I like the phoenix." Blair said. "The phoenix? Isn't that your bitbeast?" Trisha asked. "Dranzer looks just like Flare but is red instead of orange." Blair said. "Oh." Trisha said. "Girl's! Time for dinner!" Blair's mom called. "Coming!" They both answered and laughed.

(after Dinner)

"Hey why don't you spend the night with us Blair?" Trisha suggested. Blair tilted her head. "We have one extra bed." Trisha said. "Sure I'd love too." Blair said happily. "Can I mom?" Blair asked. Her mom nodded. "Great I'll go get packed!" Blair said.

After getting packed they walked towards the hotel. While walking down the street, Trisha spotted a shadow in the distance. She could tell that whoever it was, was watching them. "Uh. Blair..." Trisha started. "huh?" Blair asked. "Someone's watching us." Trisha said. They both stopped and Blair looked at who she was staring at. Blair smiled. "You know who it is?" Trisha asked. "Sure do. It's Kai." Blair said with a smile. "What's he doing out at night?" Trisha asked. "I dunno. The Night is so calming. Probably came out to get some free air or something." Blair said. 'Or maybe to see me?' Blair thought.

"Hey Kai!" Blair said calling him over. He approached the two girls. "Hey." He answered. "Whatcha doin' out here?" Trisha asked. Kai shrugged. "Taking a walk." He said simply. He looked down at the small suitcase Blair was holding. "Where are you going?" He asked. "Staying at the hotel for a couple of days." Blair answered. "Oh." He said. "Gonna walk us to the hotel?" Blair asked. "If you want me too." Kai said with a very small, barely noticeable smile. "Sure!" Blair said.

The three walked together to the hotel. Kai stayed silent while to two girls talked. Once there they said good-bye. Blair gave Kai a quick peck on the cheek before walking into the hotel with Trisha.

"Wow! He's not what I thought he was like." Trisha said. "Yah. He act's different at night." Blair said. "Are you sure it's just not when he's around you?" Trisha asked smirking. "Could be." Blair said giving a shrug. They got to the hotel rooms where Ally and Jessie were currently playing cards. "Look who I brought." Trisha said. "Hey Blair! Spending the night?" Jessie asked. "Yup!"Blair said happily.
