Chapter 4: He loves her, She loves him

Hilary ran until her legs couldn't carry her anymore. She had no clue where she was, but she didn't care either. She only knew her heart was broken and she couldn't feel anything at all. His cold words had hurt her so much. Kai was looking for her, he was desesperate, after a long time he saw her, she was sitting next to a big tree, she was crying heavily into her knees. Kai took some steps forward until he was behind her.

-I complicated my life by falling in love with him, why did I fall for a boy like him? –Hilary thought. Then she felt a presences next to her, so she turned her head, when she found the blue-grey teenager, she turned back her head and shouted angrily:

-What do u want? I have no time to talk to ya, I …

-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, I was in a bad mood

Hilary went pale, she didn't expect his words, Kai "the ice-man" was apologizing, she couldn't believe it. Then she looked up at him, she smirked into his eyes, she saw a soft expression into them.

-It's ok, don't worry, it really doesn't matter, just forget it

-Nope! It's not ok, it does matter! I was frustated, but it wasn't your fault, you didn't deserve that, well, wait, in a way it's was your fault!

Hilary was more confused than she was before.

-What do u mean with that comment?

-What do I mean? … I … do ya have something fot Tyson?

-well, he's like a little brother for me, but what does it have to do with your question?

His face turned red, Kai coughed: Well, I … Are ya sure about that, I mean it's obvious you like him.

-That's not true, I've just told ya, he's like one of my relatives, but I don't like him in that way!-Hilary said back -- why do u ask me that, Kai?

His face turned furious blushed for a slightly moment, then he spoke out seroiusly: -If u wanna know I'll tell ya. Tyson likes you, Hilary, don't tell me that u haven't noticed it yet?

--And it makes me a little jealous. Me, the Ice man, jealous of an idiot like Tyson because of Hilary –Kai thought himself.

Hilary was absorbed, but nonetheless she managed to add: I don't think he does, but if it were true I'd not be able to love him back 'cos –she paused and stared at him so her cheeks went red at all – 'cos I have a crush on other guy, well, I … I lov …. I love you, Kai.

She was waiting nervously for his answer, but he didn't say anything at all, only looked down. Her words had reduced him to silence. He couldn't get it. She had said to him that she was in love with him and she didn't like Tyson as her boyfriend. She was everything he wanted in his life. There was nothing he wanted more than her. He had to tell her how he felt, but he was also afraid of showing his feelings, he didn't want her to know he was vulnerable when she was around.

-Why can't I just forget about him? He'd never look at me the way I wish he would. It's just not going to happen. I shouldn't have told him, I'm stupid, my big mouth – she thought frantically.

Suddenly Kai he grabbed her arms and yanked her closer to him, he stared into her ruby eyes, then his mouth came crashing down on hers, coaxing her tongue to respond to his demands. Hilary couldn't help, but she threaded her fingers through his hair as she brought him much closer to her. Kai wrapped his hands around her waist. They continued kissing until they needed to take air. Hilary was sucking in air like there was no tomorrow, Kai stroked her mooth hair and touched her cheek softly while he was smiling at her.

-You're strinkingly beautiful, I love you back, you're mine. –Kai whispered slowly. Her cheeks went pink: Oh, Kai! – Tears fell down from the corners of her eyes and she hugged him, he hugged her back.

-Then, can I say you're my girlfriend? –he asked inocently. She nodded with her head and gave him a quickly kiss – Yeah, you can be sure, so you're also my boyfriend, … I'm so happy, u make me so happy

- You give me something to hope for, something worth fighting for, worth living for, you're the one who I love, but don't tell anyone how I behave when I'm with you, ok?

-Oh, no! the boy with ice heart, who could he be in love? Hahaha, … so do you think we should tell the boys about us, or not?

-Well, I think it'd be better if we tell them when the tournament is over, but what do u wanna do, Hil ?

-Mm, I agree with you, but don't u think they'll notice our relationship?

-I don't think so, maybe Ray, but he won't say anything, he knows it's not his bussiness.

After his last comment, he grapped her by her waist and pressed his lips against hers in a passionate kiss which Hilary accepted with pleasure. –I would like to stay like we're now forever and ever. I might look ridiculous to say that, but it's what I feel, Kai.

-Everything that you feel is everything that I feel, Hil.

They stayed there until the sky changed its light blue by a orangey red. Hilary came back the first to the hotel, nothinbg strange had happened, they boys were at restaurant. How ever, when Kai arrived, Tyson glared at him: Where the hell have u been all the fucking day? We've been training pretty hard, while you were doing who knows what, even if u were training, you need to train with us to be able to know our new trainings.

-Shut up, I'm enough good to train in group, I have my own way to train, so I don't have to be always with you.

-Kai, you're blown up with pride, you always like to think you're a handyman, but you don't realise you're nothing without us, …

-Wait a moment, you're not serious, 'cuz if u're, it means you're off your head, I knew u were nutter, but you're getting worse.

-The ice man has just talked, he always knows everything, but when he battles against me he loses, he's nothing compaired with me.

-How dare u say that? Arrogant, Bastard, …

-You don't like me to tell ya a few home truths, do you? – Tyson commented with a mocking tone.

When Hilary spotted them arguing she prefered to intervene like always she does.

-Please, Tyson, it doesn't matter very much, why don't you relax? It's dinner time now.

-Hilary, why do u always poke your noise onto other's affairs?

-What the hell gives you the right to say that? - Kai yelled at Tyson.

-I can say whatever the hell I want!" Tyson retorted. Then Kai pushed him against the wall.

-Mind your mouth, Tyson! Or do I have to beat it into you?

Tyson got up the courage to ask him something: Why do you worry about what I say to Hilary? You like her, don't ya? Then why don't u tell her? She's right here.

Suddenly Kai threw him to the ground as he turned and walked away. How ever, before leaving, Kai gave Hilary a slightly soft look.
