Chapter Three- Cats and dogs.

Crimson eyes narrowed in thought as they watched the neko-jin beside him, who was once again fast asleep. But since they were in maths, he had a decent excuse. The bluenette sighed, resting his head on his desk, he still couldn't shake this /feeling/. He had no idea what it was, but, unlike usual, he hadn't actually gotten mad at his teamates. Maybe he /did/ have to shout at them to get to class, but that was his job as captain. Call it role playing or whatever, but, he still found it strange. The more Kai thought about it, his teamates didn't seem such bad people anymore, maybe... he was starting to like them! The bluenette shook his head, turning back to the sleeping neko-jin. He couldn't like them, but- something told him he wanted to...

Kai took one glance up at the board, raising an eyebrow, maths wasn't really enjoyable for him. Though he was quite good at it, and Ray too, which figured why they were both put in the top set. Along with Kenny, but, he was a natural expert with figures. His on going thoughts had distracted him a lot now, almost /too/ much... So much it actually scared him. Running a hand through blue bangs, he put his head in his hands. What the hell is up with me today! He thought, I just can't seem to focus today! This is ridiculous... I don't even understand what's gotten me so off guard today! I need answers... but maybe...

"Ahhh... nothin' better than a good sleep!"

Kai shook out of his thoughts, facing a curious neko-jin, "Hey... you don't look so good."

The bluenette bit his lower lip, looking away, "I- I'm fine!" He snapped.

Ray stared at him, turning to his book, "Ok... Sorry, you looked pretty freaked out with something, I thought I 'd just check if you were alright." He frowned, noticing the almost sadened look on his captain's face.

"Thank... you."

Ray stared wide eyed, did Kai just... apologize!

The way Kai said that... he seemed really down. Maybe I should just help him a bit.

"Hey, it's nothing ok?" The neko-jin smiled, placing a hand on the other's shoulder. Kai immediatly tensed as he did so. It's that feeling again! Why can't it leave me alone!

The bluenette winced, brushing Ray's hand away, "We should be getting on with the work. Besides, I'm fine, I told you that." He sighed, "I- just need time to think... alone preferably."

"Kai..." The other whispered, "You're /far/ from fine. Please, can't I help you? Just this once? I know you've told us many times, you don't like us getting in the way. But, you helped me earlier, so, I just wanna' return the favour."

A smile graced the other's lips, "Tyson's stubborness has rubbed off on you I see. But really, I'm alright. Though, I suppose, if I need help, I'll let you come and help."

"Aww... you're too kind." Ray mused.

Kai frowned, folding his arms, "But only 'cos you start getting paranoid over the simplest of things. Man, I swear I'll have to call you 'mom' soon..."

"Ok 'son', help me with my maths work." The neko-jin said, slamming his book infront of the other, "Because I don't even know what the heck we're supposed to do."

"News-flash cat-boy, neither do I."

Ray's eye twitched as he clenched his fist, "Cat-boy!"

"Yes, you."

"You really piss me off at times!"

"Likewise."

The neko-jin pouted, stabbing at the book with his thumb, "Just help me!"

"It never hurts to say please." Kai said, looking away from the other.

"Fine. PLEASE may you help me!"

The bluenette turned his attention back to Ray, "I told you I don't know what to do," He peered over his shoulder at Kenny, who had finished his work by now, "Hey, can we have a look at your book for a second?"

(If he had eyes) Kenny stared at him around the screen of his laptop, "Why?"

Ray looked away, "Erm, we just need to-"

"Copy my answers?"

Kai rolled his eyes, "No. We want to compare them with our own."

Kenny paused, "I still don't believe you."

"Just give me the damn book."

"No!" The other raised his index finger, "Cheaters never prosper!"

"Well we'll just have to see about that then, won't we?" The bluenette said.

Kenny laughed nervously, "On second thoughts, you take it."

"Hm, I thought you'd see it that way."

Ray immediatly flipped the book open, clutching his pen, "Hehe... my brilliance has once again led us to success!"

"/Your/ brilliance!" Kai narrowed his eyes, "/I'm/ the one who-" He stopped as the other leaned in close, placing a finger on his lips.

"I was joking."

The bluenette blinked, backing away slightly, "Ray... what exactly are you doing!"

"Shutting you up." The said boy replied, a small fang poked out from his upper lip as he smirked, "And by the look on your face it seems to have worked."

He laughed suddenly, poking the other on the forehead, "Aww, don't get mad with me Kai-kun! I was only playing around!"

This just made Kai more confused, he raised an eyebrow, turning back to his book with a sigh. I'll never understand that guy...

"Aww, now you're just gonna' disown me aren't you! Just because I freaked you out!"

"Yes, I'm going to disown as from today." The bluenette replied sarcasticly. "And I wasn't freaked out, thank you very much."

"Whatever. I saw what happened. Your face told me everything."

"Idiot..."

"Don't be so mean! Just because /I'm/ right for once!" Ray looked away, scribbling down all the answers hastily, "Well, I know the truth..."

Kai shook his head, peering over at Kenny's book, "If you say so."

"I did, didn't I?" The neko-jin laughed, patting him on the head, "Good doggy!"

"I'm not a dog."

"Yes you are!" Ray said, "You growl at people some times."

"You wish, Kon." Kai replied. "Now leave me alone. I am not a dog, maybe I do 'growl', but you're a cat."

"I know."

"Kitty."

"Aww, you came up with a lil' nickname for me! Thank you! Ok, you're doggy from now on."

Kai frowned at the other "I have a name you know."

"Yeah, doggy!" The neko-jin replied. "I think it suits you. I'll have to tell Tyson n' that about this!"

"Why the hell would you do that!"

Ray stared up in thought, "I don't really know, but, I just feel like it."

"Right..."

Kai looked up from his work having heard the neko-jin huff beside him, "What's wrong?"

Ray stared at him, shrugging, "I dunno'." He layed his head on the desk, raven bangs falling infront of his face as he held his hair wrap in his hand, brushing it against the bluenette's sleeve. "Why are you doing work, you crazy guy!"

He blinked as the other brushed his hair from his eyesight, "Well, seeing as we've sat here doing nothing for ages, we should at least copy these answers. Unless, you'd like to work the questions out by yourself."

"It's still work..."

Kai sighed, "It's called you being lazy."

"And damn proud of it too." Ray grumbled. "Say... what's your place like?"

"Hm?"

"You know...? Your house?"

The bluenette smirked down at him in amusement, " House? I live in a mansion."

"You lie." The neko-jin whispered, "I wanna' live in one."

Kai rolled his eyes, "Look. My Grandfather is a millionaire, billionaire maybe. What gives you the idea he'd chose to live in a house over a mansion?"

Ray pouted, jabbing him in the arm, "Lucky guy... can I live with you?" He sat up, "Pleeease? C'mon, how could you resist a lil' kitty like me? I know you'd /love/ for me to live with you!"

"No. You'd invite Tyson 'n blondie round all the time. Either that or they forcefully get into the place by themselves..." The bluenette said, he smiled as he noticed the other's look. "I'm afraid kitty can't stay with me."

"Wrong answer!" Ray replied, glomping him over the head.

"Grr... what the hell d'you do that for!" Kai snapped. He frowned as the other began to laugh, "See! You /do/ growl!"

"Whatever." The bluenette suddenly put down his pen earning a strange look from the neko-jin, "You're done already!"

"Yeah." Kai rested his head on his desk. "You can have the book now."

Ray nodded slowly, looking at the other in the corner of his eye nefore turning to his own book, "Right then... I guess I'd better start getting these answers down..." He looked back, smirking suddenly.The neko-jin smiled, watching as the bluenette slept quietly beside him.

"Aww... I guess lil' Kai-kun needed a nap too..."
