LET ME SOAR
Chapter 5: I want you.
By the time Rei had finished his shower, it was past midnight. He must have been in there for at least an hour, leaving any hot water in the house temporarily unavailable.
In his rush to get away from Kai, he found out that he forgot to grab himself a pair of pjs. He glared at the door, wanting it to seep through to the other side. After that failed attempt, he sighed and pushed it open, wearing nothing but his towel and the long wet hair falling all around him.
"Just turn around or something, okay Kai?" Rei said as he darted toward his dresser. But before he could even reach it, Kai gripped his arm and forcing Rei to face him.
"What the hell? Kai, I need to get dressed. Let go." Rei said as he tried to escape the strong hold.
"Only if you promise to come by my place tomorrow night." Kai whispered huskily. It was then that Rei realized his face was mere centimeters away from his own.
"Kai?" Rei spoke questioningly. "I thought we already went over this? I'm a loser, and all of this was just some big mistake. You don't want me."
"Oh, I want you." Kai stated boldly, drawing closer to Rei. Then he whispered into his ear, "Promise me you'll come by tomorrow."
Kai's deep voice stating I want you. seemed to echo in Rei's mind. By this time his face was beet red, and it would seem Kai was waiting for some type of verbal response in return.
"I, I," Rei stammered. Goddamnit! Rei mentally kicked himself. Stop being such an idiot! The guy is an ass, just say no! It's simple! "I will." …Moron
Kai seemed satisfied with this as that small smirk played on his lips.
"Good." His breath left a tingling sensation on Rei's ear as he pulled away. "7PM sharp. And don't even think about not showing up, it would just make things harder for you." With that he started heading toward the door.
"Uh, wait, where are you going?" Rei asked, completely forgetting that he was still only clothed in a towel.
"Home." Kai stated simply. "I finished what I came to do here. Now there is no need to me to stay here."
"Oh." Rei wasn't sure if he was more annoyed than thrilled. Oh well, it was for the best.
"See you tomorrow, Rei." Kai smiled. Not a smirk! A smile! Rei's heart was fluttering at this time, despite him trying to tell himself that Kai was a jerk. Which he was.
"Whatever." What an idiot. You couldn't come up with something more intelligent?
Then the door clicked shut, leaving Rei alone in his room. What the hell did I just agree to?
"Okay, I can do this. I can do this." Rei whispered quietly to himself. The time was 6:46 and he was once again on his way to the big house on Dawn Ave. Oh god, what am I doing. Rei yelled at himself. He had a bad feeling in his stomach. Something bad was definitely going to happen. That, and he was nervous. Same deal. He glanced at his watch again, 6:47.
"If I am late, Kai is going to kill me."
Wait a minute, what do I care? He shouldn't have threatened me into coming here in the first place!
Oh, but he didn't need to threaten. You wanted to go. Don't deny it.
…He still threatened me.
"Hey Rei!" A familiar voice called out to him. It was Max. Shit. Rei didn't have time to chit chat; he was already behind schedule as it was.
"Max!" Rei shouted back, waving an arm. He may not have time to chit chat, but he couldn't just ditch Max either.
"Hi." Max smiled as he caught up. "What are you doing out here? I thought you had to work today?"
"Um,"
Shit.
Ha-ha, loser.
Shut up.
"It turns out that they switched my days with someone else at the store." Acceptable excuse I guess.
"Cool! Now you can hang out with Tyson and me!" Max piped up, as he went to grab Rei's arm and drag him down the street.
"Actually, I can't Max. Sorry." Rei said, feeling worse every minute. I'm going to be late!
"How come?" Max asked.
"I'm pretty beat, but I have to take care of something before I head home."
"Oh. Well I'll come with you then!"
"Max, I have to do it alone." Rei said firmly. He glanced at his watch, 6:55. Crapity crap crap.
"Oh. Okay then." Max said his tone a little hurt. "I'll see you later I guess." And he turned to leave.
Say something idiot!
"Max!" Max turned his head.
"Don't be mad okay? I'll call you when I get home and we'll make plans for tomorrow or something okay?" Max smiled at this.
"Sounds good!" And he ran off.
Rei's watch read, 6:58…I am totally screwed.
By the time Rei reached the big white door of 185 Dawn Ave. his watch read 7:02.
Only two minutes, I'm good. Rei thought. But he was far from safe.
He rang the doorbell and waited, secretly praying that Kai forgot to put a shirt on again. To his disappointment, it wasn't even Kai that answered the door. It was a new face topped off with a head of hair.
"Um, hello." Rei said awkwardly. He did have the right house right?
"Get lost." The boy sneered as he slammed the door in his face.
Huh?
Just as Rei turned around to leave, the door opened again.
"Bryan, stop being such as ass. Jeez." It was Tala.
"Tala!" Rei exclaimed happily. He wasn't lost!
"REI!" Tala shouted even louder, grabbing Rei in a friendly hug. When he pulled away Rei's pale face was flushed from slight embarrassment, but it had a small smile on it anyway.
"I am so glad you decided to come back!" Tala said happily, pulling Rei through the door. "Kai can be such an ass sometimes. Well, that's a lie. He's an ass all the time. But the point is that you don't care what the hell he says, 'cause yah came back! I like that about you."
"Actually, I wasn't going to come back." Rei said softly, starting to feel a little awkward again. "It was Kai that told me to."
Tala just stared bug eyed at Rei.
"I don't believe it." Tala said in disbelief. "He must have heard you sing!" Tala jumped at this, hooting his arms wildly in the air. "Un-fucking believable! Kai you jackass! Why didn't you tell me? I SO RULE!" With that, Kai emerged some room on the right. All the doors looked the same to Rei.
"Obviously I didn't want it to get to your head. But it would seem there's no way of avoiding that."
"I RUUUUUUUUUUUULE!" Tala howled, laughing in Kai's face.
What the hell is going on.
"Tala, shut up. You're scaring the new kid."
Kid? Rei glared at Kai.
"Don't think he likes that label." Tala said, reading Rei's face.
"What the hell is going on here?" Rei said a lot calmer than he felt. Kai and Tala stared at him.
"I thought you knew already." Tala stated in a matter-of-fact tone. "You're the new singer." He smiles excitedly.
"No I'm not." Rei said. "I already told him," He nodded his head toward Kai. "I'm not singing."
"Yes you are." Kai growled.
"No, I'm not." Rei replied stubbornly.
"Tala, make sure the other guys get set up properly okay? I need to have a talk with the new kid."
"Sure thing." Tala said, a bit of uncertainty hinting in his voice. But he walked into the room just as Rei heard someone practicing a catchy beat on the drums.
"Follow me." Kai demanded, walking down the long hallway.
"Why should I?" Rei shot back, but followed anyway.
It didn't take long for them to reach a set of stairs, and climb their way to the second level of the mansion. It wasn't until they hit the next long hall that Rei bothered to open his mouth again.
"Exactly where are we going?" Rei asked. "Shouldn't I just leave?"
Kai didn't reply. He kept walking.
Whatever. Rei settled with glaring at Kai's well-toned back muscles. Damn him.
"Here." Kai finally spoke. He opened another door, to reveal…a closet.
"What, the hell." Rei's face dropped as he looked in. "Yes Kai, I have a closet too. And I hate to break it to you, but there isn't anything really special about this one."
Kai ignored him and began rummaging through the clothing.
"Here it is." Kai mumbled from within the closet. "Put this on." He threw something at Rei, who caught it instinctively. Rei's eyes widened at the material in his hands.
"No friggin' way." Rei was shaking his head and throwing it back at Kai. "I refuse to wear something like that."
"Well too bad. You're wearing it." Kai said, throwing it back. "The stuff you wear is way too plain. You need something to make you stand out, or at least look remotely appealing." Rei glared at this comment. He found nothing wrong with jeans and t-shirts. And he wasn't that bad looking.
"No." Rei said stubbornly, getting angry.
Kai glared back. But suddenly the glare became a smirk.
"Okay, fine." He said, pulling himself out of the closet. He walked toward Rei, the smirk still on his lips. Rei didn't like it.
"Okay fine." Rei repeated, holding the garment out for Kai to take. Kai reached out, seemingly to grab the material, only to grab Rei's arm and shoving him into the closet.
"KAI! What the hell?" Rei exclaimed, trying to pull himself out of their quickly. But suddenly something fell down on top of him. Rei wanted to scream, but his voice refused to obey him. Kai was now on top of him, his face inching closer. "K-Kai, get off." Rei whispered his voice crackling and almost non-existent.
"Why?" Kai asked almost innocently. Rei wanted to kill him. He knew damn well why.
"You know damn well why." Rei said back. He meant for his voice to sound angry, but it just sounded weak and pathetic.
"No I don't." Kai smirked. Suddenly Rei felt something on his neck. It was soft and delicate.
"Kai…" Rei whispered, finding himself not caring that the guy was an ass. At least he was a hot piece of ass.
Suddenly the sensation stopped. And Rei finally noticed that he had had his eyes closed. When opening them he knew his face was flushed, and he could have sworn that Kai's smirk was even wilder.
"I want you." Kai said softly, leaning in toward Rei's face.
"W-What?" Rei stammered.
"It can only be you. You have to sing for me. I want you."
Oh. Singing. It had completely slipped from Rei's mind.
"Kai…" Rei's tone was soft, but his eyes were murderous. The asshole was using his body against him. It wasn't fair.
"Put it on for me, and I promise you'll get something good later on." His lips fell on the willing Rei. Started with a start peck; teasing Rei's senses.
"Stop –" Rei started only to have his mouth consumed by Kai's. This time he was more forceful and his tongue began to trace his lips. Rei let him in, allowing a slight moan to escape through his lips as Kai's hand began to roam up his side.
"Do we have a deal?" Kai breathed huskily. By now Rei was gasping for air, and didn't care what it was he had to do. He nodded.
"Good boy." Kai smirked. He was almost instantly off of Rei. "The washroom is the next door on the left. Better hurry up and get changed. Everyone will be waiting to meet you downstairs." And with that he left, with Rei still on the floor of the closet, still trying to figure out what the hell just happened.
As Kai walked victoriously down the stairs, he saw Tala waiting for him.
"What were you doing." Tala's eyes were stone.
"Nothing." Kai shot back with a look just as nasty.
"You're my friend Kai. But don't you dare fucking use him."
"Oh shut up. You're just jealous that he's into me." And with that he walked off into the practice room where a base was starting up, and the drums were still beating.
Tala could only glare as he walked back into the room as well.

TO BE CONTINUED…

I have never written anything like this before. Sorry if it wasn't all that good, but I promise it'll get better. And if it was too long, I'm sorry for that too. I will make the others ones less "dragging on", and there will definitely be more action too. And next chapter you will actually hear the band play. Or at least Rei will. Tis all good.
R&R. and give me suggestions or pointers if you want.
