I'm sorry, really I am. It's just school and dance…shit like that has been taking up my time. PLUS I had no clue what to do with this story. At all!

BUT THANKS AGAIN TO MY REVIEWERS

don't own anything.

Chapter 13 – His

Hilary's POV

'I lay down on the couch, my head on my new pillow; oh it was so soft, and I turned on the TV nothing really caught my attention, leaving it on a cooking show I started to watch…

…I wonder if Kai can cook. Hmmmm, I should ask him…..

…the stir-fry their making looks pretty good, I wonder if Kai likes stir-fry's?

…Hey that green pepper kind of reminds me of…WAIT, why can't I stop think about Kai?

Then I had noticed, Kai Hiwatari had tainted my thoughts. I couldn't think of anything but him! He's everywhere…my dreams; thoughts…and now I live with him…not forever though.

I mean I do like him, as a friend… no I couldn't say that anymore, I was attracted to him.

His voice, so deep and strict.

His hair, so un-clam, untamed, a lot like him.

His physic, gorgeous.

His face, flawless, absolutely perfect in everyway, yet he always wearing the same icy mask, I could tell by his face exactly how he was feeling.

Oh and there are just so many more things I could say about how perfect he is but….

"Hilary I'm heading over to Tyson's."

Shit, I heard him approach the door to the room I was in, probably to make sure I heard what he had just said….but I couldn't face him now!

All the thoughts I just had…I would go completely red!

SLEEP, I pretended to be asleep, as I heard him step in the room I shut my eyes.

"Hilary?" I heard him say…suddenly I felt his breath beside my cheek…Oh my Kami, his warm breath steaming onto my cheek…clam down, I had to tell myself.

From what I could tell he was kneeling beside me…next thing I felt a hand stroking my cheek.

Kai was kneeling beside me, stroking my cheek with the back of his hand.

I was in complete heaven, and it was about to get better.

He withdrew his hand from my face, and for a couple of moments I could feel him staring. Then it happened…

I felt his soft, warm lips come into contact with my cheek. He had kissed me, my cheek but none the less Kai kissed me!

"I have a confession," I heard him whisper "… that sketch you saw in my room, it's you."

With that he stood up and walked out of the room followed by the closing of the front door as he left for Tyson's.

My eyes popped right opened. That was a sketch of…me! The beautiful women was ME!

My face was probably so red; I could even feel it heating up. I went to the washroom and splashed cool water over my face. I still couldn't believe all that had just happened.

Was it possible Kai liked me back?

At Tyson's

"GO DRAGOON, GET HIM!" Tyson and Rei, deep in concentration, deep in battle and from here it looked like anyone's game.

Chief, Max and Kai stood on the side lines watching.

"This a pretty intense battle…" said Max in awe.

"They have both improved." Kai said, cause in Max and Chief to turn a make sure if he just said that for real.

"Your in a good mood, you never give us compliments, especially Tyson." Spoke Chief.

Kai just grunted back. But it was true Kai did feel rather…happy.

"We'll be ready for the Worlds in no time!" cheered Max.

"DRIGER THIS IS YOUR LAST SHOOT!"

"DRAGOON, CRUSH HIM!"

Light shot out from all directions of the dish…as it dimmed away the rest of the team saw that neither of the beyblades were spinning.

"DRAW" screamed Max.

"No way I won that!" demanded Tyson.

"Buddy if you could see right you would have seen that I clearly won it!" Rei argued back.

Tyson and Rei continued bickering, until Hilary came in a stopped it.

"You tied, ok!" Hilary yelled.

"Where'd you come from?" asked Tyson confused.

"The door where else, and I saw the battle, clearly a tie, get over it." Hilary said sticking out her tough a Tyson.

Kai made a slight chuckle at the scene before him, Max noticed.

"You like her don't you?" Max quietly asked Kai. But Kai didn't answer back; he just stared ahead at Tyson, Rei and Hilary arguing back and forth. Then giving out a grunt he walked away.

"Thought so." Max said to himself with a smile.

They were all sitting around the circle table in front of the TV at Tyson's eating dinner; they didn't know exactly what it was…Gramps made it.

Still, even though the food wasn't exactly identified they still ate their fair share, except for Hilary. She said she wasn't hungry at the time and she had eaten before she came. Tyson quickly then took her share of food to himself. Kai gave him a cold stare and went back to his meal.

Hilary and Kai hadn't spoken all night, Kai was never one to make the first move in a conversation and Hilary, so flustered from what happened while she was 'asleep', she knew if she was to talk to him so soon it would come out as a bunch of nothings that would make no sense.

Around 8:00pm, Hilary was outside leaning on the banister of the porch listening to the boys screaming at their blades during battles, last time she checked Rei and Tyson were having a re-match.

Staring out in to the starry night sky, a cool breeze thrust upon her body making her shiver. She was thinking about a variety of different things, Kai for one thing, her mother, school, the up-coming dance…the list went on.

Standing up straight to walk back into the warm Dojo, she bumped into someone while turning the corner.

"Oh, umm sorry Kai. I was about to- you see I was-then you- now...Uhh" and there came the mess of word she was expecting to hear from herself when she tried to speak to him.

"You've been avoiding me, why?" he asked plainly.

"Umm, well, you see…iwasonlypretendingtosleepwhenyoucametotellmeyouweregoingtoTysons!"

(I was only pretending to sleep when you came to tell me you were going to Tyson's!)

There was a weird silence between the two; Hilary didn't dare to look up into his eyes.

Then Kai stepped away from the closeness between them, turning his back so she wouldn't see his blush,

"Keh, I knew that!"

And he started to walk down the Dojo steps, home, Hilary just stood as a wide smile appeared on her face. He turned around to her,

"Well don't just stand there in the cold, are you coming home anytime soon!" He said in a bitter way, embarrassed.

She ran up beside him with a huge smile on her face, and started to walk home, to their home.

Not to their knowing, four pairs of eyes watched from the Dojo window as Kai slowly took Hilary's hand in his, wrapping his around hers like a blanket.

Finally they both seemed happy.

A/N: FINITO, for now. Please be kind and review!

Next chapter Hilary gets her dress; embarrassing moments will occur… so on and so forth.
