Me: um… if you're wondering why I changed the fic from rated T to rated M… it's because my friend, the one I told the fanfic to before I posted it said that it should be rated M because of um… a part she remembered. Hale: but it's only lime. Me: she thinks its lemon. Hale: who are you gonna listen to? Me or your friend? Me: um… (Thinks hard). Hale: uh… anyway, here's chapter 17.
Chapter 17: I'm With You
"Just kidding Tal, you two are tied, I'm the one with more fan girls," Kai said.
"Wha…" Tala said but stopped and shook his head. "Never mind, what do you think Kaze would like for a Valentine's Day gift?" Tala asked.
"A box of chocolates duh! Or a cute pink teddy bear holding a heart saying, 'I Love You' or a bunch of red roses," Kai said.
"Hmm… what about a heart-shaped box of chocolates, one rose and a small heart shaped balloon that says, 'Be My Valentine'?" Tala said.
"Hmm… not bad Valkov, not bad," Kai said.
"Brother!" Kaze said calling out to Kai. Tala's cheeks turned pink and looked away.
"What is it Kaze?" Kai asked.
"I'm gonna take a walk, do you wanna come?" Kaze asked.
"Nah, I kinda… need to do something," Kai said.
"Oh all right," Kaze said. Kai looked at Tala with a smirk and Tala, understanding that look gave him a look that said, 'Don't you dare try to set me up with my crush!'. Kai ignored his look and turned to his almost leaving sister.
"Hey Kaze!" Kai said. Kaze turned.
"Yes Kai?" Kaze asked.
"I have someone who wants to go on the walk with you," Kai said.
"Who?" Kaze asked. Kai pushed Tala in front of him.
"Tala," Kai said. The two teens blushed in light pink, Tala turned to Kai glaring at him.
"You are so dead Hiwatari," Tala said. Kai just smirked and turned to leave.
"Have fun you two," Kai said and left. The two were quiet during the walk.
"Um… do you want to sit down for a while Kaze?" Tala asked. Kaze just nodded. They sat on a park bench but still kept quiet.
"Hey Tala," Kaze said.
"Yeah?" Tala said.
"I've been wondering if…" Kaze said, cheeks turning bright red.
"If?" Tala said.
"If… you've ever like someone… as a… crush…" Kaze said. Tala's cheeks turned as red as a rose.
"Um… yeah…" Tala confessed.
"Who?" Kaze asked looking at Tala.
'Oh no… what should I do? I like Kaze but… I'm not really ready to confess to her right now… but what if she might cry and Kai would blame me for it?' Tala thought. Tala looked at Kaze and their eyes met.
"Tala? Do you… like… me?" Kaze asked, her cheeks turning into a new shade of red.
"I… I…" Tala said. Their faces just inches away from each other, about to kiss when…
"Kaze? Kaze!" they heard someone say. They pulled away from each other and saw Hilary and Ming-ming.
"Hilary! Ming-ming!" Kaze said smiling. The three best friends ran to each other hugging.
"Hey I've missed you girl!" Hilary said.
"Same here!" Kaze said. They pulled away from the hug and noticed Tala was with her.
"Why is Tala with you?" Hilary asked.
"Oh… you two are on a date aren't you?" Ming-ming said. The two Russians turned pink.
"We are not on a date! We're just… hanging out… that's all…" Tala said.
"Ha! That's what everyone says, come on you two admit!" Ming-ming said.
"Ming we are just hanging out, would I ever lie to you?" Kaze said.
Me: I really can't decide! I'm not sure… maybe I should talk to her about it… Hale: if she can call, you don't have classes tomorrow but she does. Me: (groans) shoot… anyway, here's another reader who reviewed!
