The walk to the BBA head Japanese office was short, to Rei anyway. For Tyson, however, it was much longer.

"How much longer till we get there?" Tyson whined, dragging his feet and panting as loudly as he could, hoping to get a break out of it.

"Little dude, we're gonna have to whip you back into shape. Maybe I should up your training. You wont have as much chill time, but you'll loose the blubber." Gramps said, poking Tyson's gut with the kendo stick.

"NO! Gramps you cant do that! It's cruel! It's not right! INJUSTICE!"

"Tyson, have you been watching Gundam Wing again?" Max asked, giving Tyson an odd look.

Tyson laughed nervously.

"Maybe I have, and maybe I haven't."

"I'm guessing you have." Kenny said, pushing his glasses higher up his nose.

"Probably." Max said, resting his hands behind his head as he walked.

"GUYS! Don't gang up on me!"

"We're not ganging up on you Tyson."

"Oh. You're not?" Tyson said looking at Kenny and Max.

"No Tyson. There wasn't really anything we could gang up on you for." Said Chief.

"Yeah! I think we're all guilty of watching at least one episode of Gundam Wing." Max said cheerfully, throwing an arm over Tyson's shoulders.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah. I think. Guys? Can you back me up on this?" Max turned to look over his shoulder at Rei, who was laughing quietly to himself, then looked at Kenny.

Rei smiled. "I watched the series a while ago." He said, one of his teeth poking out as his smile widened.

"I watched the series with you and Max back during the Worlds." The no-longer-little geek said. Max smiled at the answers and turned back to Tyson, whose shoulder he was still leaning on.

"See, buddy? We're all guilty. Well, except Gramps."

Gramps nodded. Then stopped and shook his head.

"Nah. I watched an episode with the Little Dude about 3 weeks ago."

"See? We're all guilty." Tyson smiled.

"Good to know I'm not alone in this world."

Rei smiled and shook his head at the group walking slightly in front of him.

'It feels good being back with the guys. Even now they goof off. But,' his grin dimmed a little, 'even with the addition of Gramps, I still feel that something is missing. Something very important. Wait, Kai isn't here. That must be it. But why do I feel like it's a major loss? He never added to the conversations, so why does it feel so incomplete without him here? He's been plaguing my mind since the last time I saw him. Almost as though, he means a lot to me. It's like I….I….. No. It can't be. I can't, love Kai, can I? No, it must be something else. But why do I feel calmer when I think of him. And why does it feel so, incomplete? It must just be me, the guys seem happy enough.'

He smiled and let out a laugh as Max noggied the Chief while keeping his hold on Tyson. Hang on…

'Max is clinging to Tyson? I know he's always needed some form of human contact, a hand on the shoulder, leaning on someone, heck he's guilty of glomping people, including me! But he's never held contact for this long.'

"Ummm, Max? Could you stop leaning on me, please? As much as you're gonna hate this, your kind of heavy." Tyson said, looking at Max through his bangs, a light tint of red on his cheeks. Max's cheeks were slightly red too, but he puffed them up and gave Tyson a mock glare.

"Are you calling me fat?"

"No! No, no. Just saying you're heavy, man."

"All right that's it!"

Max relinquished his hold on Tyson, though somewhat resentfully, before chasing Tyson down the street.

Rei smiled. He'd picked up on everything that had happened. Now he just had to add up the right things.

'Max didn't want to let go of Tyson. Max and Tyson were blushing. Tyson didn't really seem to mind having Max on him, even though he asked him to get off. Hmmmm.'

He looked at Kenny. Chief, realizing Rei was looking at him, turned to look at the neko-jin.

"What?" he asked, unconsciously reaching up a hand to wipe at the side of his face, as though something was on there.

"Are Max and Tyson not telling me something?" the small geek smiled.

"You mean have they finally got together? Sadly, the answer is no."

"Damn. I would have thought they would have figured out they like each other by now. But, it seems I was wrong."

"They're not the only ones having problems sorting out their feelings are they?"

"What?" Kenny gave Rei a knowing smile. "What? Kenny what?"

"I think you may be having the same problem as they are."

"What? But I don't like anyone!"

"Want to make a bet?"

"I know my feelings Kenny! I don't like anyone."

"Kai."

Rei froze.

"What's wrong Rei? Cat got your tongue?"

"Chief. I seriously have nothing to say. I guess I am confused." Rei lowered his head, almost in shame.

"It's ok Rei. Everyone gets confused."

"But how did you know? When even I don't know if I, like him, or not?" Chief smiled his knowing smile.

"You two just seem right for each other. You get along well; Kai can stand being around you for more then 5 minutes. The list goes on. " Rei lowered his head even more.

"But that was 3 years ago, Chief. We're probably both different now."

"You never know. You seem pretty much the same. None of us have changed. Kai may still be the same." Rei smiled down at the geek.

"Thanks Kenny."

Gramps, who was walking a little ahead of the two boys smiled. What he would give to be young again.

The BBA office was approaching and as the 'dude' and his 'homies' came closer they could see Max sitting on what looked like a speed bump. The speed bump turned out to be Tyson, who it seemed had collapsed after running from Max.

Rei raised an eyebrow at Max as they approached. Max raised his in return. Rei lowered his eyebrow and raised his other one. Max did the same. The others watched the silent eyebrow battle in silence, until Tyson spoke.

"Um, guys? What's with the eyebrows?"

"Hmm? Oh." Rei looked to be in thought for a moment. "I don't know. Max and I just started doing that one day a while ago and it seems that it stuck."

"Oh, ok. Max? Can you get off? We have to go see Mr. D and we don't want to be late."

Max huffed, and dragged himself off of Tyson.

After Tyson was standing again, they headed into the building.

"I'm sorry. Mr. Dickinson had to leave. He said he would be back shortly, so I suggest you wait outside his office. Down the hall and it's your first left."

"Thank you."

The small group wandered down the hall, down their first left, and found some chairs on the opposite side of a door the proudly showed 'Chairman's office- Mr. S. Dickinson'.

They sat down. Rei sat on his seat in the lotus position, and closed his eyes. Max tried to poke him, but failed when he reached to far and fell off his chair.

"I wonder where Mr. Dickinson went? It's not like him to leave when he's just asked someone to be at his office." Max said, scratching absently at his chin.

"Hmmm. Maybe something important came up." Kenny replied.

"Ya think?" Tyson asked.

"Hmm. Maxie is right. It's not like the old coot to leave when he's just made an appointment."

"Well, this 'old coot' is sorry to have you wait, but I had to pick someone up from the airport."

Everyone spun in their seats (except for Rei, who just turned his head) to see Mr. Dickinson and….

"Kai? Is that you, man?"

"Hn. Who else?"

Rei's eyes raked over Kais body. He was taller, taller than Rei. He wore a black muscle shirt and long, baggy army print pants. He wore black gloves, the same as from 3 years ago. He carried a duffle bag over his right shoulder. The blue triangles were still on his face. And the scarf was still there.

Kai looked over his old team, the corner of his mouth twitching up a little, almost as though he was smiling. His face seemed more expressive than before. This meant that the boys could actually see expressions on his face. He simply smiled as he looked over Tyson and Max, he looked shocked as he saw Kenny, and again he smiled as he looked at Gramps. When his eyes hit Rei, they widened slightly.

'Rei. God, time's been good to him.' Kai thought, looking over Rei. He grinned mentally as he saw how Rei was sitting. It looked uncomfortable, but incredibly interesting.

'So Rei's flexible. That's handy.' Some rather dirty thoughts of Rei filled his head. He mentally slapped himself. 'Down boy.'

The Chief watched Kais' expressions from behind his glasses, and smiled at the look in Kai's eyes when he saw Rei, and how Rei was sitting.

'It seems Kai still likes Rei. After 3 years. He still loves what he thinks he cannot have.'

Yes, Kenny knew Kai liked Rei. How?

Flashback

Max and Tyson were fighting over the TV remote at the hotel, again. Rei had gone down to the gym. And Kai was, somewhere. The Chief headed downstairs. He was actually going to see if he could find Rei. He needed to borrow Driger, see if he needed to repair anything. Rei had a habit of cracking the attack ring. As he walked past the bar, he saw a figure yelling at the bartender in a foreign language, and the bartender backing away. He looked a little closer at the figure. Two-toned hair, scarf. Was that Kai?

Despite the fact that he was scared of what might happen, the Chief walked over to Kai, and put a hand on his shoulder.

Kai turned, eyes blazing, but as they sighted Kenny, the fire died out and he slumped, landing on the Chief, who let out a shocked cry.

The bartender looked at him.

"He a friend of yours?" He asked.

"He's my team captain." Kenny replied, almost collapsing under Kais weight.

The bartender whistled, and one of the waiters from the hotels' restaurant walked over. Seeing Kenny getting crushed by Kai, he helped to hold the weight.

"Do you know if anyone else from your team is on this floor? I think this guy needs help getting to his room." The bartender asked. The Chief looked to the waiter, who seemed to understand his question.

"I'm on shift, so I can only stay on this floor. If you have a friend that's at the pool, or the gym, I can take him there, but that's as far as I can go at the moment." Kenny thought for a second.

"I have a friend in the gym that I was going to talk to before I saw Kai here."

"Ok. Then we're off to the gym." Kenny thanked the bartender for his patience, and the waiter for his help, before they set off towards the gym.

When the Chief heard a mumbling, he realized that Kai wasn't unconscious, as he had previously thought. He leaned a little closer as they walked, trying to find out what Kai was saying.

"I love him, I love him so much. But I can't have him. He's too good for me."

"Who, Kai?" Kenny whispered. The waiter looked at him, then realizing that this wasn't any of his business, continued looking forward, nodding occasionally to other staff members as they walked past.

Kai looked up slightly at Kenny.

"I love him, Chief. I need him. But I can never have him. I'm not good enough for him."

"Who Kai?" Kai smiled, shocking Kenny, who nearly dropped Kai.

"Rei."

Kenny dropped Kai in surprise this time. The waiter managed to stop Kai from hitting the ground. Chief shook his head and grabbed Kais other side again.

"He's so beautiful. I love him. But." Kai sighed. "I can't have him. I'm only dirt under his feet. I'm nothing in his eyes." He nodded to himself.

Kenny sighed at the drunken blader.

After arriving at the gym, Chief thanked the waiter, and then walked in, Kai still leaning on him.

Rei was practicing his karate, and currently was shirtless (drool). Kai looked up. As soon as he saw Rei, he blushed a deep scarlet and lowered his head again.

"Rei!" Kenny called.

Rei turned and, seeing Kai draped over Kenny, he immediately thought the worse.

"Chief! What happened?" Rei ran over.

"I found Kai at the bar. He was yelling at the bartender. Then he kinda, passed out for a bit. Can you hold him, he's heavy."

Rei laughed lightly.

"Kai isn't heavy, Chief." Rei pulled the scarf from Kai, and suddenly the Chief found that he was much lighter.

"What? Why's he so light?" Rei laughed.

"He scarf is weighted. Here, we'll trade. You can help me get Kai up to our room."

Flashback end

Kenny had approached Kai the next day. What Kai had said in his drunken state was true. He was horrified when he found out that the Chief knew and had made him swear that he wouldn't tell anyone. And here he was, 3 years later, and no one knew.

"Boys, please step into my office. I have some good news for you." Mr. Dickinson said, opening the door and inviting the boys, and 'dude' in.
