Helloooo! Sorry I'm going to be making excuses again… sigh who else hates school's timing? It sucks. Sooo much work and so little time. Please find it within your hearts to forgive me for not updating for so long, I really am sorry and hope this makes up for it!

It's all Rai's POV today, enjoy!

hyperrrrrrrrr me: I'm so glad you like it, wait no longer!

Trinity of the phoenixes: A chibi fic? I guess ur right! It wasn't intended as that, I never really thought about it! I love the hair thing too kawaii ne?

pickle-kitten: arigato my friend! I shall try my best to keep up the standard of this work. As for making Kai any cuter, it can be done?

Disclaimer: I did own Kai but then the evil lawyers came and made me put him back, therefore I own nothing but a giant lollypop and a pogo stick.

Summary of last chapter: There has been a crash and Kai has been hurt badly. Has Rai uncovered new feelings for the stoic captain? And what really happened anyway? And what is the damn complication? (Surely you've worked it out by now:P)

Italics: thoughts

Rai's POV

I can't believe what just happened. It can't be true. I didn't believe the doctor when he told me and I've just seen it for myself and I still can't get it through my thick head. I've been waiting for what seems like days for Kai to come to. It's been driving me crazy. Even 'Mr impervious to everyone else's feelings except his stomach' Tyson thinks I'm going insane. They've been taking it in turns to try and start up a conversation with me. Me, I can't be bothered with idle chit chat. They can keep their optimism and happy go lucky ideas to themselves. I can't get the accident off my mind. What could I have done to change things? Well I suppose it would have been an idea not to stand gawking at Kai when he's telling me to move… Would have been a start anyway…. When he finally came to, I was the first to hear him. My heart started pounding as the sound of Kai's startled shout came to my ears. I was in the room in a flash. I couldn't wait anymore, I was desperate to see him awake, desperate for him to give me a snide remark, desperate for him to forgive me. I could only imagine what I looked like to Kai, My hair a mess, my face drawn and tired, huge bags under my eyes, where I hadn't slept. Kai certainly looked at me in confusion. He was sitting up in bed, holding his back… hold on, looking at me in confusion? Since when has Kai shown that he's confused? He cocked his head and immediately winced from the pain. That got me moving. Suddenly I was animated, rushing to his bedside, but I couldn't help but think how cute he looked at he cocked his head… Stop it Rai, this is neither the time nor the place.

'Kai?' I asked tentatively. Please let him just be a bit rattled…

'Yes?' He replied with none of his usual bitterness. I forged on, hoping and hoping my suspicions weren't correct…

Are you…ok? I mean… do you remember me?' Please oh please don't have forgotten me, I don't think I could bear it…

'No should I know you?'

NO. The shock was too much. I fell to my knees, my eyes filling with tears with every second that passed. I don't believe it. I won't believe it. How could he forget me? It's not FAIR.

'I'm sorry' I blinked back the tears and looked up in surprise. Kai was apologising? Kai? No this is wrong, I've been transported to an alternate universe in which Kai is a kind, gentle and generally happy person and in which we've never met…

'I didn't mean to upset you.' Kai did something then which astounded me beyond everything else that had happened. He did something I've only ever seen him do once. He smiled a genuine smile. And what's more, he smiled at me. If this was any other situation I would be in coo, coo land at the moment. But it's not any other situation. Kai really doesn't know what he's doing…

'Kai…' I say wistfully, wishing none of this had ever happened. But it has so I've got to deal with it. I'm only thinking of my feelings, what about what he's feeling right now? He has no idea where he is or why. I attempted a small smile back at him. Surprisingly this cheered him up. I'm making Kai happy…. Bad thoughts, nasty thoughts, go away! I stand up and bow my head in apology.

'Can I play with your hair?' I looked up in surprise. Woah, surely this can't be Kai!

'Huh?'

'Please?' My eyes widened further as I stared at him in disbelief. This is just too strange…What the? Kai's staring right back at me. Staring contest? Haha! what next? I giggled and nodded my head, blinking as I did so.

'Yay! I won!' He said triumphantly. This was actually rather funny, seeing Kai like this, it's cute. I giggled again and let out my hair. Usually I get irritated with the length of my hair, but right about now I was praising the Gods for my decision of growing it long. I hear a small gasp of approval come from Kai as I took out the head band. I smiled again, happy that I could give Kai some small happiness. I moved my head so my hair hung down within his reach. I sat down so I could watch him play with my hair. Oh I wish he could have done this before the accident, then again I should be careful what I wish for. I never wished pain on Kai and I've been replaying in my head the scene over and over again. What could have I done to change things? The depressing thing is I could have done lots of things and all of them would result in Kai not being hurt. Why did I have to choose the wrong one? Mmm his hands feel so good running through my hair…. All of a sudden his body came into contact with mine as he gave me hug.

'Kai! What are you doing!' I exclaimed in shock, pulling away from him, which I instantly regretted, as he hung his head and I immediately missed the warmth and longed for it again.

'Sorry' he whispered, recoiling away from me. I didn't want him to hide away from me again, I didn't want him to have to put those barriers up once again. I moved closer to him and put my hand on his. I didn't know what I was doing, I just wanted to make him smile again, make him like me again.

'No Kai, I'm the one who's sorry, I just wasn't expecting that, that's all.'

'you looked like you needed a hug.' he explained further. I looked at him in surprise and amazement once again. I shouldn't keep doing that, it upsets him… I gave him my best grin and tried once again to cheer him up.

'You know what Kai? You're right, I did need a hug, and I'm glad you gave me one!' It was his turn to be surprised. He grinned right back and my heart missed a beat. At that moment 2 nurses, 1 doctor and the rest of the Bladebreakers burst into the room. I quickly shoved my hair back into a ponytail and watch the doctor and nurses do 'tests' on him. Kai grabbed me and whined, hiding behind me. I turned to him and fright was evident on his face. Kai hasn't had this many emotions on his face for a very long time, his face must be straining under the pressure.

'Kai don't panic, they're here to help you.' I soothed. He shook his head, clearly not believing me.

'Rai what's going on? Why is Kai behind you?' Tyson practically yells at me. Irritated I snap back at him.

'What does it look like? He's scared, he's lost his memory, just like the doctor said.' Tyson looked at me in shock. I rarely ever lose my temper outside a beybattle and even then it takes a lot to irritate me. Kai's grip suddenly tightened on my arm. I spun around and gave a startled yell as Kai slipped back into unconsciousness.

'Kai!' I get shoved out of the way as several more people come into the room. I can't stand it anymore and run out of the room. I took a deep breath and sat back down, welcoming back my new friend patience. It was going to be another long wait…
