eh heh. whoops! its late again! whaddyaknow?

Rei in the Middle:

Rei nodded as Tala finished explaining how he had not been allowed on the Gold Class section of the plane for the first half of the trip, something to do with them messing up his ticket or something, Rei wasn't really listening or interested much, he was too caught up with the idea of Tala's head exploding from the evil looks Kai was sending in his general direction.

At the current moment, Rei was back in his seat where he was previously sitting next to Kai, but now instead of sitting next to him once more, he was sitting in front of him.

That's right, Tala had so much as gracefully taken Kai's seat next to the neko-jin. Resulting in Kai sitting behind them, meaning Rei could feel as uncomfortable as much as possible with both Tala and Kai constantly looking at him. Key word: Constantly.

Tala finished his babbling and looked over at Rei with a curious look in his eyes. But with a sort of knowing look at the same time. Rei guessed what he was about to say next couldn't be pleasant.

"So what were you doing on the tiolets back there?"

In that instant, Rei knew the rest of the plane flight was going to get very messy, ugly, and possibly so horrible he would have to commit suicide.

"Rei"

How long was this friggen plane flight anway?

"Well, uhm..."

Once again his brain had supplied him with an answer to absolutely nothing, and let it be known to all who may hear.

Rei looked behind himself to see Kai, his eyes pleading for help of some sort. Any answer would be good at the moment; except the actual truth. Kai stared blankly at Rei, then seemed to come to an internal conclusion by standing up, walking around to where Tala sat and saying boredly; "That is none of your business, and if you don't mind I would like my seat returned"

Ok what the hell. Maybe not the most spectacular excuse Rei had ever heard, but it changed the subject and got rid of Tala. Not that he didn't not like Tala, he was just simply unnerved by the suggestive looks and constant touching he was receving from the red-haired boy.

What was with everyone lately?

Tala's facial expression changed from evil, to anger, to evil once more in a matter of seconds. He stood up swiftly and put his hand on Kai's shoulder, whispering something softly so as to make sure Rei could not hear the words.

Kai's eyes flashed with disbelief and anger for a brief second, before he brushed off Tala's hand

and 'hmphed' at the boy, taking his seat next to the neko-jin.

Tala smiled and waved his hand at Rei, and said in a cheerful tone; "Going to the bathroom, alone, thanks" and he walked off towards the bathroom, a smile still playing on his lips.

The next couple of seconds had probably been the most awkard of Rei's entire life.

He remembers thinking that the plane had gone awfully quiet (even though Tyson and Max were still clobbering eachother somewhere), he also remembers his eyes getting droopy with lack of sleep and way (waywayway) too much excitement for one day (plane flight).

And after that, he remembers a quick glimpse at the one person who made his recent teenage life so complicated, with firey red eyes, looking right back at him.

'This chair, is so comfy' Rei thought, snuggling a little further down into the infinite warmness being offered to him. Rei was somewhere in-between being awake and being asleep, sighing in contentment as his body completely relaxed.

And then, the chair, moved.

Rei shot his eyes open in terror, and his eyes darted around the new scenery.

He was no longer in the plane, that was for sure.

He was also no longer sitting in a chair, either.

His heart thumped heavily as he looked at the 'chair' he was leaning onto, one arm draped around it.

Or, to be more precise, one arm draped around him.

Rei lifted his head slowly and gulped as he came face-to-face with you know who!

Kai!

Kai smiled down at Rei, his fingers lightly dancing at the younger boy's waist where his arm was trapped behind Rei's back. "Sorry" he leaned in closer"did I wake you"

Rei totally flipped out and nearly fell backwards off the actual seat and out of Kai's arms. Breathing heavily and looking around frantically, looking much like a lost kitten.

"Uhh mm, s-sorry Kai" Rei stammered, he was most generally confused. Not being in a plane anymore and being in the arms of his team captain in what seemed to be a limosine was most puzzling.

Rei concentrated on keeping his breathing steady, his heart-beat down and his blush back.

"What happened" Rei asked, realising he would really like to know how he ended up sleeping on Kai in a limosine. Wait, that didn't sound ri-

"You feel asleep." Kai replied simply, his tone flat, crossing his legs and looking directly at Rei, as if expecting another question.

Well he was right there. Any dumbass could tell Rei had obviously fallen asleep. Wait that was kind of offending Kai, bad Rei, bad!

"Well yes, but how did I, err, we, end up here" Rei tried again, calming down a little and getting comfy on the actual chair, as far away from Kai as possible. Not that he didn't not enjoy Kai's warmth, but the idea still irked him after all the things Kai had done to him lately.

Even though he enjoyed that too.

"After we landed, you completely refused to wake up, and you had attatched yourself to my arm aswell, so I had no choice but to carry you to where we were picked up by these guys" he indicated the driver"and Tyson and Max went into the other limo" here he uncrossed his legs and somehow shifted so he was much closer to Rei"and then you woke up in my arms" and here is where he gave his famous smirk.

Rei's eyes had widened so much it looked like he had seen Kai undress or something.

'Well. How embaressing.' Rei thought, utterly defeated. He let out a nervous laughter and tried to apologize, but it looked like Kai wasn't really listening.

For Kai, had moved, a lot closer!
