Fluff's Corner: TO ALL THE READERS, I'M REALLY SORRY IF I DISAPPOINT YOU IN THIS CHAPTER! (Or with any other changes.) Okay, this is why. Well, for one thing, I'm sure you're all aware that I've changed the summary of the story a little bit. I've also just changed the genre from Romance Comedy to Romance Drama. Plus I've added in KaiTyson. If anyone has ANY objections, please leave a review. I'm sure that some of you find this paring...sickening or something. If so, I shall make you all happy and redo the summary. But don't worry; I do not intend to leave Brooklyn out for long. (Sorry if that was a spoiler...) and sorry for taking so long to update, had to study for tests. I'm also sorry that I'm taking up too much room here! Shall start now.
Fluff-note: Fluff-chan does not own Beyblade no matter how hard she tires! She only owns this story, so run away screaming! .
Faint sounds of whimpering could be heard from the hotel hallway. Alone in his hotel room, Kai sat on the bed. His legs were tucked in, his arms crossed over them, and his head was bent low. Tears had stained his clothes and the blanket beneath him. A creaking sound came from the door. Kai looked up. Tyson was slowly making his way into the room.
"Kai, are you there?" Kai could hear that Tyson's voice held concern. He remained silent, drying his eyes with the back of his hand.
"Come on, I know you're here! We all saw you come in while we were eating in the dining hall." Again, Kai didn't answer. He couldn't get over the fact that Brooklyn had left and now he was definitely not in the mood for Tyson's talking.
Slowly, Tyson approached his roommate. He got onto the bed and stood on both hands and knees, making direct eye contact with the boy in front of him. Kai pushed Tyson off the bed. He slowly ran a few steps before abruptly collapsing onto his knees and bursting out into tears. Tyson rose from where he had fallen. Again, he walked towards his teammate, this time not getting so close.
"I can't believe he left me…I just…can't," Kai quietly said as if talking to himself, startling Tyson. "He said he never wanted me to feel sad…in any way."
Tyson, who was standing behind Kai, slowly bent down. He rested his hands on the crying boy's shoulders. He rubbed Kai's back, trying to comfort him in the most reasonable way he thought possible. No words could come to the black-haired boy's mouth; nothing that could mend Kai's broken heart. Then, a long, comforting silence arose. Nothing could be heard except for the muffled sound of Kai's sniffling.
Early Next Morning -
The wind coolly blew through the window, chilling everything within the room. Kai was resting his hand against the glass and was randomly staring outside the window. It was barely morning, yet Kai couldn't sleep without the image of Brooklyn leaving seeping back to him. He sighed, letting a long held breath out.
"You still awake?" Kai turned around to see Tyson rubbing his eyes while making his way towards the open window. He closed the window and rubbed himself to start warming up. But as he was about to gently amble back to the bed, he closed his eyes and fell into Kai's arms.
Kai yawned slowly. He carried Tyson over to his bed, and then made his way to his own bed. He didn't want to think about Brooklyn, but couldn't keep his eyes open for another minuet. They felt heavy and soon closed tightly, putting Kai into a deep slumber.
Even later that morning - (Man, they sure stay awake late!)
"Kai, Kai," Tyson shook his teammate, "Wake up you lazy freak!"
Kai opened his eyes, blinked a few times, rubbed them and sat up. He looked at the clock and couldn't believe how late he had slept in. The blue-haired boy's eyes made their way back to his rooster call.
"Feeling any better about Brooklyn leaving you?" Tyson asked the sleepy boy before him. Kai's eyebrows rose curiously.
"How do you know about Brooklyn?" He asked.
Tyson stuttered a little, "Just a wild guess, I guess." He rubbed the back of his head while smiling. Then his face turned serious again, "But first of all, are you okay? I wouldn't want you to feel hurt."
The expression on Kai's face was blank. He didn't know that Tyson cared so much about him and how he felt. He shrugged. After all, he did kind of feel better after sleeping on the matter at hand. Then a rumbling sound came from Kai's stomach. The boy patted his belly and blushed a little bit.
Kai had finally gotten up and was making his way down the stairs to the dining hall with Tyson. Again, their teammates asked suspiciously why they had both came down so late and again, the two boys remained quiet. This time, Kai didn't walk off, but instead stayed and attempted to enjoy the company of everyone. He felt more alone than usual now that his heart had shattered into a million pieces. He then gathered himself and started to fill up his empty stomach.
Upon having full stomachs, the Bladebreakers just sat around their table and savored the moment. Kai stared at Tyson. For some odd reason, Tyson seemed to be concerned ever since Kai came home the day before when Brooklyn left. In fact, Kai's large mouth friend was the best comfort to him so far.
"Well, we better get back to our rooms and start packing," stated Kenny, "After all, we'll be leaving and going back to Japan tomorrow." All the boys agreed and headed back to their rooms. Kai walked up the stairs, while Tyson trailed behind.
When the two boys reached their room, Tyson closed the door behind him. He ignored his luggage and went directly for Kai.
"Kai," He started, "I just want you to know that I'm always open and there for you." He smiled and was about to turn towards his bags when Kai grabbed his arm.
"Thank you." Kai said sternly. He pulled Tyson in for a hug. The blue-haired boy didn't know why, but he found much comfort in Tyson. When Brooklyn left him, it felt like the Earth had exploded and all had ended. However, when Tyson opened his arms to Kai, the particles reformed and a new beginning had restarted.
