---Chapter 2---

---Lost Like a Broken Compass---

---Normal POV---

They were stuck in a staring contest. Neither would get up nor move away- it was a battle between water and fire. Suddenly the phone rang, but neither budged. Finally Kai, without tearing his eyes away, felt around beside him for the phone, and picked it up, still staring daggers at Hiromi.

"What." He grunted into the phone. A voice talked on the other side of the line before Kai grunted and hung up.

"Who the hell was that." Said Hiromi with a sting in her voice, not breaking eye contact.

"Room service. They're bringing in dinner." He said with the same burn.

"We're in the middle of nowhere jackass! How can someone have room service in the middle of no where?" She shot at him.

"Shouldn't you know since you're so smart? Oh that's right, you don't have a brain." Kai shot back.

"Well at least I can pass a grade unlike some people!" She glared at him with more fury.

"Who said I can't pass a grade? At least I can spin a beyblade unlike you!"

"At least I actually look human!"

"At least I'm not a slutty whore like you!"

"At least I'm not a-" she was cut off by the doorbell. They didn't budge to get the door.

"You get the door." Kai said.

"No, you get it!" Hiromi countered.

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"NO!!"

"YES!!"

"Hello?" Said the person behind the door. They both sighed and got up to get it.

"I'm getting the door, sit down." Kai said.

"No, I'M getting the door. YOU sit down." Hissed Hiromi.

"No."

"Yes."

"No!"

"Yes!"

"NO!!"

"YES!!"

"Is anyone in there?" Said the person behind the door. They both reached out to get the door handle but by accident their hands just swiftly brushed against each other. Kai yelped and ran down the hallway. "AHHH!!! I MUST SANITIZE MY HAND!!!" He screamed, running into the bathroom to wash his hand like no tomorrow. Hiromi glared at his back as he ran down the hallway, and then opened the door.

When Kai came back dinner was on the table, and the maid who had delivered their food was gone. Kai sat down in his seat and started eating, as to Hiromi had already started without him. Kai was still mad at Hiromi, so he picked up some luke-warm gravy with a spoon and yelled, "FOUR!!" as he catapulted the gravy at Hiromi.

The food landed square between her eyes. She dropped her fork on the plate, causing a slight noise at metal against glass china. Hiromi opened her eyes, which were burning with hate. She glared at Kai and Kai smiled at her and waved mockingly. Hiromi's hatred level shot up by a mile, and her face turned red from anger. She picked up the soup ladle and dipped it in gravy and flung the liquid at Kai, who picked up a plate just in time to block the incoming gravy. He brought the plate down and smiled mockingly again. She roared in anger, and before Kai knew what was happening the whole pot of gravy was spilt over his head.

Both cleaned up and went to their separate bathrooms to wash up. Kai decided that it was way to warm in the cabin so he went outside, and soon after Hiromi followed.

Kai walked out a bit further into the snow and so did Hiromi. The setting sun was reflecting beautifully off the snow.

Kai stepped further out again, and Hiromi followed.

"Where are you going." She stated.

"Somewhere you won't follow," He said, and stepped out further. "Unless you're too chicken." He said, knowing she couldn't resist the challenge.

"CHICKEN?! Oh pft yeah right! YOU'RE the one who will be chicken mister!" She yelled, as Kai started to sprint into the woods, and Hiromi followed.

They were running for a long time until they stopped to catch their breath. Kai and Hiromi looked at where they were- they were surrounded by gigantic pine trees covered in snow, and the ground was covered in a deep white blanket. Pieces of fluffy snow drifted down from the rapidly darkening sky.

"Where are we?" Hiromi asked.

"What you mean you don't know?" Answered Kai with a question.

"No seriously, where are we?" She said.

"I was serious too, I thought you knew." Said Kai plainly.

"Y-you mean... we're... LOST?!" Cried Hiromi. Kai simply nodded and kept his cool.

"IF I DIE OUT HERE IT'S YOUR FAULT!" She screamed, pointing at Kai.

"I thought you knew it was rude to point. I didn't get you into this; you accepted the challenge, baka." He said coolly.

"Well you're the one that challenged me!"

"Well you're the one that followed."

"Well you're the one that stepped outside!"

"Well you're the one who annoyed me so much to force me out there!"

Both teens were hot-headed and yelling until they heard a crack come from the trees. They both turned around, and noticed the sky was now pitch black, the sun had set. The wind had picked up causing the wood to creak and groan, and the temperature had dropped at least fifteen degrees. Hiromi and Kai shivered, they hadn't brought jackets along with them on this vacation. Kai had his scarf and light overcoat with a black top underneath, and purple pants. Hiromi had an orange, light overcoat, with a green shirt underneath, and a white skirt.

"G-Great, now we're sure to d-die," choked Hiromi from the cold.

"N-Not if we f-find out way b-back," stuttered Kai.

The two started to walk around, through the trees in hopes of finding their way randomly back to the cabin.

---

Kai slammed open the door and limped inside, followed soon after by a shivering Hiromi. She shut the door and they both collapsed on a sofa, exhausted from sprinting around till two in the morning since six in the evening.

"I was sure we would die of cold," muttered Hiromi, still frozen stiff.

"I knew we wouldn't die." He said just to argue with her. They both were frozen to the bone and were so cold they were almost blue.

---

They walked into the sleeping area otherwise known as a bedroom. They expected two beds far away from each other (if not they would have pushed them away) but instead they found only one bed.

"Ahh!" yelled Hiromi out of surprise, and Kai's eyes widened from shock.

"NO F&#$ING WAY AM I SLEEPING WITH YOU!" he screamed.

"Well then where will you sleep?" She said mockingly.

"On the floor if I have to!" He said, walking out into the living room. Around half an hour later, he came back in the bedroom which woke Hiromi who was snuggled comfortably in the blankets.

"What not comfortable enough for you?" She said groggily, then giggling and burrowing her way back into the pillows.

"None of the sofas are comfortable and the floor is... a floor." He said with a plain, defeated voice.

"Oh so what are you thinking, that you can sleep here?" She said.

"Well... yeah."

"No."

Kai came over on the opposite side of Hiromi and pushed her off the bed, she hit the floor with a thump and she groaned.

"What was THAT for?" She cried.

"For not letting me sleep here." He said closing his eyes. Suddenly a strong force pushed him off the bed and he grunted painfully has he hit the floor. He sat up and Hiromi smirked at him.

Finally some time later after them pushing each other off the bed and trying to get the bed for themselves, Kai lay on the edge of the bed and Hiromi lay on the other. They each scowled at the opposite wall at the thought of sharing a bed with their arch enemy.
