They had sex. I mean, Haru and Kai.

Oh, and, I know you may have been confused by what happened, but things will be clear soon, plus this is going to be TalaKai. I love this pairing, I wouldn't change it. Believe me!

Tala is in for a little shock here. No, he doesn't find out about Haru. But is just as good.

Chains of Love

Chapter 02: Troublesome affair

Crimson eyes blinked open warily, clouded by sleep and strain. At first he couldn't remember where he was, then as his sight focused, he recognized his room around him, and the comfortable warmth of his bed covers.

Mind still confused, he let his eyes trail sleepily around, taking notice of what surrounded him. No one would believe this was a teenager room, because it was quite bare compared to the ones Tyson, Max, Daichi, even Rei, owned.

It was quite large indeed, and it was of a white colour that send shivers in Kai's back every time he entered it, but he cared nothing. First, he usually stayed downstairs in the lounge, or in the kitchen, or practicing in the reserved area of his mansion, and got there just to sleep, second, he wasn't used in decorating rooms anyway.

Near the opposite wall there was a desk with three books on it, a pen, a pile of white papers and a lamp. Next to it, a brown and very uncomfortable chair.

Then there was the bed, with black and blue sheets.

Nothing more. He usually kept his clothes in a side camera, just as big as this one was... but then again, his dressing choice centred on some type of clothes and the main part remained unused all the time.

Tala swore he would have Kai decorate it up, but still, no threats had been spoken, thus the room stayed like it was.

Tala's name caused the slate haired teen to remember what happened last night, to which he shot up in a straight position on the bed, not caring if the covers fell from around him -the room wasn't the last bit cold anyway.

The disco. Tala and Bryan trying to convince him into stepping inside it. Then, they going away to enjoy the night, and him staying besides the entrance, too nauseated by the chaos to move.

And... his sudden decision to try and accept the place and the noise, just because Tala loved it.

He remembered going towards the most peaceful looking part of the disco, having in mind to take a drink and then force himself not to move; but his resolve vanished when he saw the guy.

He had crimson hair, much like Tala's in some way, but of a deeper shade, more of a darker red than Tala's. His eyes were of a strange violet, more intense than Bryan's own lilac, and he'd this... look on him, as if he thought he was the most wonderful guy in the entire world.

Mind, he wasn't ugly, in fact he was damn gorgeous...

And the guy -Kai did not even know his name, but part of him couldn't care less- flirted with him. Hit on him. He spoke in a way... as if he was trying to seduce him.

'And he succeeded in doing so,' Kai had to admit to himself.

He shivered as he remembered the intense gaze of the other's eyes, the way he spoke to him, the way he... kissed him... and claimed his body as his...

Yeah, right, Kai thought startled, but not shocked. I'm not that virgin anymore, am I?

/Start FlashBack/

The kiss felt anything and everything all the same, dulling Kai's consciousness into a state of sheer pleasure and confusion.

It felt strange to him, the sensation of burning lips over his, controlling him, pleasuring him. He could not decide whether or not to pull the crimson haired teen away, to stop it, or to pull him closer, to deepen it.

As the red haired teen retreated from him, but still not moving from his position where he straddled Kai, a knowing smirk graced his features. Kai's lungs burnt up with need of air, but he was too dazed of because of the kiss to notice it.

The slate haired blader panted as his eyes met once again with the violet ones, a different kind of need flaring inside his body. He didn't know what that was, but he craved and even ached for it.

In a flash, an image of Tala appeared in Kai's mind, triggered by the flaming hair of the teen above him, and Kai felt... unsure.

Tala, as he liked to show off, was comfortable with those things. He never cared whether Kai knew or not, or even if he couldn't understand what he was saying, but Tala used to go all big on his so called experience.

As if he didn't know Kai knew nothing of it.

Tala was used to this, he could control it...

And suddenly Kai thought, what if that's the reason of him not taking interest in me?

Maybe Tala believed he was too inexperienced to be worthy the try. He used to dress like a God of Sex, hurting Kai without knowing it, to brag his beauty and to find another lucky one that would share his bed... Kai felt really poor at his side...

If he let things proceed with the guy, maybe he would learn something to please Tala. Maybe then, Tala would look at him differently.

Violet eyes stared down at him, a glint he could not recognize clear in their depths, as the teen spoke up, his voice nothing more than a velvet whisper, "are you ok with this?"

What he wanted to mean was obvious to Kai, or at least he thought so. If he said no, the other would stop...

Kai felt himself gasp out aloud and then moan in pleasure, as the teen traced his neck's side with his tongue and lips, and then stopped at his collarbone, sucking carefully a spot there.

Another deep need flared through Kai's frame, steeling his resolve.

Ask him if he wanted to stop? No way, not when he was receiving so much pleasure...

He couldn't stay virgin all life because he waited for Tala to be the one. Tala would never go with him if Kai did not learn at least how to do it.

He...

One of the teen's hands brushed against his groin, making him gasp once more. Could it be any better? The pleasure was blinding him, his sight becoming blurred, blood going all downwards -apart the one that was causing him to blush- the air around him suddenly too hot to take.

"Y... yes..." he managed to stutter, closing his eyes in submission.

And then all his resolve failed, all his thought about learning something, as the teen's hands worked on him, continuing his ministrations, filling his body with so much pleasure he thought he was going to die, making him surrender the control of his body to the other teen.

"Please..." he knew he was begging, but for once, he cared nothing at all. Just for the pleasure to continue, and it did.

/End FlashBack/

Now that Kai thought about it, now that he was somewhat more... introduced, let's say, in those kinds of matters, he could recognize the glint in the guy's eyes.

It was... lust.

He'd seen it clearly, but couldn't place a finger on what it was, until now.

But he felt... after what happened in the club with the guy, he felt...

Happy?

Well, who in their right mind wouldn't have been, being pleasured in every possible way, reaching places they never knew they existed...

But it was something more than just physical act. He had at first wanted to be as good as Tala was, as expert as the red headed Russian was, so he would notice him. Tala was no newbie but he was.

If he'd got to learn how sex... worked, Tala would appreciate him more, he was sure of that.

That was why he let Spencer, Bryan and Tala lead him into a pub. That was why he left his comfortable spot near the entrance to enter the disco, trying to ignore the suffocating area, the noise, the blinding tiled lights, the people crowding around him.

Because he loved Tala, he loved him so much he would do anything for him.

His love blossomed during the time he was separated by Tala, during the second world tournament. Many times he'd wished for the red headed Wolf to be at his side, always berating himself and scolding his mind for this kind of stupid thoughts.

But when he wondered what to do, when he felt he did not belong with the Japanese team, right before the third world tournament, there was only one choice to make. Only one person could make him fit into something. Only one team was rightfully his, and it was the NeoBorg -aka Blitzkrieg Boys.

And the moment he saw Tala again, when he came to greeting him back... he knew it. He knew he was in love.

Though to be truthful, he'd thought he would be the one... topping, that's it? He never thought he would be the submissive one. He never submitted to anyone in life, every battle, every fight, every single thing in his life saw him as the one that was in control.

Why with the guy things had gone this... wrong?

Why he'd found himself being... controlled by someone, someone unknown moreover?

Not that he hadn't liked it, anyway.

A flash of himself being topped by Tala suddenly passed through his head and he blushed furiously, shaking his head to shove the picture away. Hell, he did it just once, and he was starting already to have perverted daydreams...

Maybe this was normal too. At least now he knew what he was dreaming...

He shook his head again, and left the bed, wincing as he did so. His back hurt a lot, and not just it... it hurt even inside... the guy said it would hurt because he hadn't had lubricant with him -whatever a 'lubricant' was- so he used... well, what happened to be on hand at the moment...

Kai felt himself blush, but he also felt good. It hadn't hurt that much, and the pleasure before, after and even during, had been worthy it.

'I should get a shower, and go downstairs to have breakfast, the others will be... oh shit!' Kai was suddenly reminded he left his friends in the disco without warning them. But after three hours going at it, who wouldn't be a bit spaced out?

He wasn't completely in himself as he zoned out of the pub and called a taxi to go home, he was confused, weak, tired and... well, satisfied.

Shuddering he wondered just how bad his friends would react.

……………………………………………

"(Tala, please...)" Bryan tried to calm his distressed friend as he paced back and forth in the kitchen, looking with a flat face at him. He looked like a parent whose son had gone suddenly missing.

Tala reserved to him a drop dead glare before resuming his pacing.

"(He just... disappeared! Why?)" Tala shook his head, waving his arms around in a pissed off fashion. "(Without warning me... us! Why!)"

"(Maybe he was tired of all the noise, you know how much Kai hates the crowd...)" Spencer looked up from his newspaper and glanced at the red headed team captain. "(You're pissed off because he doesn't like the same things that you do!)"

Tala stopped and turned to the blonde teen, and if stares could kill, Spencer would have been dead the moment Tala set his eyes on him.

"(I...)"

Bryan rolled his eyes, "(you are hopeless you know? I bet you finally made up your mind and was about to go and drag Kai to the dancing floor or something, but you did not find him anywhere, that's why you are pissed off!)"

Tala growled but looked away.

"(Maybe taking Kai to the disco wasn't that good idea, after all,)" Bryan reasoned. "(You can't pretend him to get accustomed to such things when he never ever tried them!)"

"(But Kai is not this dense, come on Bry, you ought to be smarter than this!)" Tala replied sternly, shaking his head.

Bryan growled, and Spencer let a smirk flash on his lips as he stared at the Falcon, amusement leaking from his emotionless face, "(oh, yes, Bry, how can you be so dense?)"

"(Shut up you,)" Bryan grimaced, "(and you, Tala... I think you are the oblivious one here...)"

Tala finally stopped his pacing, and turned completely towards Bryan. The lilac haired teen was sat at the kitchen table, sipping some coffee from a cup, whilst at his side Spencer was again busy -or so he appeared- reading his newspaper.

Ian was not here. He was angry once again with them because they ignored him and left him at hope using a moment of distraction from him to leave. He was playing with Kai's computer, hacking around in protected web sites, boosting up his ego each security password he eluded or decrypted, it had been way to easy to trick him and leave.

However, now this was not the problem at hand.

"(What do you mean!)" Tala growled and in a few steps he was almost towering on the Falcon with a scary looking face -not that the lilac haired teen was the least afraid.

"(Tala...)" Bryan wasn't sure whether to tell the red head or not, because it was not his business, but maybe this way Tala would finally open his eyes and stop being just as dense as Kai, but in a different way.

"(Tell me! What do you mean!)"

Bryan swallowed and decided to reveal him the truth, "(Tala, have you ever realized that Kai is still... well, you know...)" he made a gesture with his hand, but the Wolf's face remained blank.

"(Is what?)" Tala was starting to feel aggravated; he'd been afraid, shocked, worried to the maximum when he could not find Kai anywhere, but most of all he'd been angry because Kai left without telling him -without giving him the chance to go and stay with him a little. Plus, his hangover after at least ten vodka glasses -fifth before his quest for Kai, fifth after, since he hadn't find him- was hurting him, making Bryan's voice like a tantrum in his ears.

So having Bryan acting this way was just aggravating things, not to mention Bryan was like, 'hangover? What's a hangover?'.

"(Tala, Kai is still a virgin...)"

Tala's face could have been priceless in his shock. Eyes widened till the point Bryan feared they would pop out of their sockets, he paled considerably and stared in astonishment at the Falcon, who could do nothing but muffle his dry laugh under a light coughing.

Spencer chuckled from behind the newspaper's protection.

"(No... no way!)" Tala's left eye twitched.

Bryan waved his hand banishing the matter. "(With such a grandfather, what could you expect from him?)"

Tala opened and closed his mouth repetitively like a fish, whilst Spencer resumed his reading and Bryan his coffee sipping, blatantly ignoring their team captain.

Tala was left alone -well, obviously not, but you know what I mean- to think over things. To realize that maybe, just maybe, he'd to change his acting, since he'd been wrong since the beginning...

But time was not favourable to our red haired wolf, because just a second later, a well known slate haired teen, oblivious the fact that the rest of them were speaking about him, entered the room, hair still wet from his shower. He wasn't fully dressed yet, because he wanted to confront the others as soon as possible, so he went downstairs with his hair still damp, a towel around his shoulders, and a pair of shorts -thing he would never go outside his mansion with. He would die rather than that.

First reaction of the red haired fool -turning towards Kai with a frown, ready to yell in rage against him because he left them behind and worried them -well, worried him.

Second reaction of the red haired fool -after seeing how Kai's body couldn't be fully concealed by the shorts and the towel, he started drooling.

Bryan sighed in resignation and resumed drinking his coffee -though he couldn't stop himself from doing a check-on to Kai's built frame with appreciating eyes. Spencer simply chuckled some more from behind the newspaper.

Both however were surprised, Kai never used to walk around this... exposed before. This was a first.

"('Morning...)" Kai cleared his throat and sat down, after pouring himself a generous dose of coffee from the pot.

Tala snapped out of his Kai-induced trance and his eyes flared with fury once again, "(where did you go! I searched for you for three hours! I was damn worried!)"

Kai grimaced, feeling rather guilty, but decided to answer without giving away anything; suddenly after seeing his love, what happened the night before made him feel guilty and sorry. He did not know why, but he felt as if he had to be sorry. "(I was... tired,)" and this was not a lie.

He hated lying to his friends, it made him feel guilty. The same when speaking with Rei, but that couldn't be applied to Tyson or Max. Lying to them was like praise for Kai's ego.

"(Yes, but you could've notified me you were going away,)" Tala slumped in defeat on the chair, moping, because effectively, after what Bryan told him, the situation could be seen in a whole new prospective. But still, they hadn't forced him into going with them, hadn't they? He had to warn them he was going away!

"(I'm sorry, notify you?)" Kai was now looking at him with a sneer, "(are you my baby sitter or something?)" the Phoenix's wielder was now looking slightly angry himself. At first he had been guilty because in some way, even if Tala wasn't interested in him, even if they were not a couple, he felt like he'd betrayed him. As he walked towards his 'doom' he was not certain whether he should tell the others he had sex, but decided otherwise. He would seem really newbie doing this, and he wanted not to attract any more attention on himself.

But now, looking at the pouting face of his secret love, Kai felt a strange kind of rage. Tala was acting as if he was his damn mother, or he was his guardian, as if Kai had to tell him every single thing he did.

Maybe there could never be a 'me and Tala'. Maybe Tala saw him only as a little brother, or a friend to look upon to.

Not like a lover.

"(Well, there is news for you, Tala, you're not!)" He growled. "(I can do whatever I fucking want, and if I decide I don't like your disco, then I will go away! Is that ok?)"

He and Tala stared, or better, glared, at each other; Tala with frustration clear on his face, Kai with a defiant expression, taking a few sips from his mug.

But in the end they were both shaken away from their little stare fight by a sudden comment from Bryan, who decided to come up with the most random thing, "(You know Kai? You look somehow... different)".

Which caused Tala to turn at him perplexed, Spencer to peer from his newspaper, and Kai to choke on his coffee.

"(I am what!)" he managed to stutter, after coughing for half a minute.

Bryan leaned his chin on his hand with concentration, clear eyes analyzing Kai, "(something... I can't put my finger on it, but there's something different in you Suzaku)".

Kai decided to fake indifference and ignorance and shrugged, "(I don't know what you're talking about, Bry... maybe you're hallucinating or something)".

Bryan's frown deepened some more as he looked at the slate haired teen, trying to focus on his sensation. There was something, but...

"(I'm going out to train a little, anyone wants to join me?)" Kai stood up, retiring from the kitchen right when Ian made his appearance, yawning.

"(Hey Ka-)" Ian's greeting fell into silence as the short teen blushed seeing Kai half naked. Then he entered the kitchen and sat down at the table, staring wide eyes at his older friends, "(what the heck?)"

"(Nothing a shrimp like you has to know,)" Bryan replied smugly.

"(Hey! Wait, this reminds me...)" Bryan, Spencer and Tala flinched at the sight of the Snake's enraged expression, "(You left me here yesterday night!)"

The three teens sighed in defeat, "(...)"

……………………………………………

Crimson eyes stared down, following every move the blue beyblade made around the garden, each spin, each turn, controlling it with ease. The spinning bey made its way towards a bush, before swiftly changing direction a second before colliding with it, raising its speed so to run up a tree, jumping down when it reached the highest branch.

Training always helped him calm down, but this time, Kai was a little more upset than he thought he would be.

Should it consider what happened as irrelevant, or not? It had been his first time after all, but...

Tala's acting triggered something in him, he hadn't any right to smother him around, and he wasn't his mother, for God 's sake.

Gritting his teeth Kai let out his breath in a low hiss, trying to calm down. He wanted Tala to be with him, he wanted Tala to act as if he cared for him, but not like a mother, or an older brother or friend, would do.

He loved Tala, he loved the red head so much it hurt, but he could do nothing to make his wish come true, not when the object of his passion thought of him as a mere friend.

Should he forget about his first time, but no, he knew it had been just a one-night stand, he'd been looking for it, and there was no turning back -why would he anyway, he'd liked it... no matter Tala, no matter the others, it was about time... just wait for the blush to disappear, he thought brushing his hair away from his face.

Maybe it was time to change something in his acting, try to turn his back on his love for Tala, and try to enter deeply in the world he'd despised so much before or try some more, or actually wait.

Yes, maybe the latter was the better, knowing he couldn't deny his love for the red head, no matter what.

Oh, well, knowing Bryan did the same for Rei helped him some, since the lilac haired blader would never tell the Neko-Jinn about this, not even in a million years, not after what happened in their fight.

Shaking lightly his head, Kai smirked, for once not thinking about his love, instead focusing on something else.

"(Kai...)"

Kai's crimson eyes turned into slits at the well known voice, it couldn't be possible, when he though he could let the matter go, here he was, the devil with flaming red hair...

"(Tala,)" he said with as much coolness as he could muster.

Turning around he saw that the red hared teen was looking at him with guilt flickering in his eyes, and decided to listen what he was going to say.

"(Kai, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have reacted the way I did, it's just that... I care for you and your welfare, I mean,)" he stumbled on what he was saying and cleared his throat, trying to think the best way to put it down. "(It was obvious you weren't at ease in the disco, and it wasn't fair for me and Bryan and Spencer to let you all alone... I was just trying to make you comfortable, and I thought we should have some time relaxing in a different way than usual, you know, training)".

Kai let his shoulders relax lightly, because he couldn't stay angry at his friend too much, and he accepted the apology with a nod.

"(I know, I know,)" he replied lifting his hand; Dranzer flew in his opened fist and he held it against his chest, before turning again to Tala with a smile flashing on his face, "(and I have to say that I have my own fault... you tried to make me loose up and I left without telling you... I'm sorry too...)"

Tala felt his heart go warm at Kai's words, and smiled as well, 'he's just cute when he looks at me like this... I should have waited some more, and then let him accustom to the place staying at his side...'

"(Kai, what if we go back to the disco tomorrow? I mean, not in the same one, but in one quieter... so you can get accustomed to it? I'm sure you'll love it,)" he suggested, smiling at the younger teen, who seemed to think over it for a few minutes.

He didn't want to go back to that noisy place, but if Tala said it would be a quieter one, than why not? Besides, that crimson haired blader surely wouldn't be there as well, and he didn't want to meet him again.

Plus, this way he could try to show Tala he was no pushover, nor clueless.

A small grin appeared on his lips once more, "(yes, I think I would like it,)" he replied. "(Just... pick up another pub, ok?)"

……………………………………………

They reunited back for lunch, gathering around the big table that was now filled with every and any food they could want -Kai made sure they ate more than they ever did in the Abbey- and for the first minutes, they all ate in silence, as they were used to.

Clear eyes stared at the slate haired blader as he poured down a glass of cool water, the lilac haired blader wondering what could be different in his friend that was making him so uncomfortable... well, not uncomfortable, he was merely pissed off because there was something he couldn't place.

Kai was strange, or at least stranger than he usually was, almost as if something happened to him in the short time he disappeared from their sight... but Bryan wasn't sure about it.

First he came down from his room with just shorts on -the towel around his shoulders did not count- and that alone was quite disturbing, since he never let anyone see his body, not even an inch of it, much to Tala's distress.

Kai had always been shy and in his clueless acting he still managed to feel unease when he was shirtless. Thus why he came down almost half naked was beyond Bryan to understand.

Something was different.

Second, Kai looked rather... stiff. Not that anyone could've noticed it, not unless they were as observant as the former Demolition Boys, former Blitzkrieg Boys, NeoBorg team were. Stiff but also relaxed, all the same.

'What could make Kai act this way?' Bryan munched on his fork while staring contemptuously at the younger teen, managing to ignore Ian's rambling about the dessert.

Kai stood up and walked towards the kitchen, walking right back with a tray filled with chocolate cookies and various types of chocolate sweeties, placing them before Ian, who 'eep'ed happily before dawning on them.

He wasn't the only one though. Tala, being the freaky guy he was, had a fetish over chocolate; so when the brown, sweet substance made its appearance in the room, Tala's thoughts were suddenly attracted by it, as the red haired blader grabbed the first cookie that was in his reach and started to munch on it, in pure bliss.

His thoughts were about like this, 'chocolate... chocolate... chocolate filled cookies... chocolate covered cookies...' he glanced at the slate haired beauty who was currently eating politely one cookie -opposite of him and Ian, who were devouring them in a Tyson like way- and his thoughts trailed in a different way than before, 'chocolate covered bishie... chocolate covered Kai lying on a silk bed... licking all the chocolate from Kai...'

Right now he surely appeared a drooling pervert to anyone looking, but luckily for him, no one noticed it, because suddenly, Bryan's mind clicked -the lilac haired Falcon could bet it clicked so loud the others must have heard it- and he stared in shock at the Phoenix.

It was clear to him what happened at the pub. It was so clear he was rather angry at himself because he hadn't noticed it before.

Kai disappeared from the entrance, and reappeared only when they were already at home, but he wasn't inside when they returned, he was coming from the entrance door. Bryan assumed he'd been training and since they were all drunk by that time, decided to question him later -he was sure Tala didn't even see him when they entered the main room.

But Bryan was no clueless guy. He saw Kai's stiffness and Kai's relaxed mood, he saw how he acted, as if something radical happened to him, and he realized what surely happened to the disco when no one was looking for him.

When he disappeared suddenly, only to reappear the morning after, fine and... contented...

He was so shocked he forgot his cool façade, and standing up in a flash, with the chair colliding on the floor with a loud 'thump', he pointed towards Kai, who was by that time looking at him while chewing on a cookie, and shrieked, in a high pitched voice -so unlike him- "I know what happened! You have had sex with someone!"

Well, at least this was what he tried to say. But his yelling was stopped in mid sentence, at the 'you have had s...' part, when Kai's eyes widened lightly, and not even a millisecond later a big slice of bread flew through air and magically stuffed his mouth shut, under the stupefied gaze of Spencer and Ian -Tala was busy drooling on the chocolate like an idiot- whilst Kai calmly swallowed and without even looking at him, he stated, "don't speak with your mouth full, Bryan," before standing up. "I'm going to train again, mind to join me?"

Bryan stopped his coughing fit and as if in a daze he stood up again -the force of the bread threw him backwards- and followed the slate haired Phoenix wielder outside the kitchen, still looking pretty astonished.

All the while, Spencer was staring at their retreating back with an 'I really don't want to know,' look, Ian was blinking in wonder at the strange behaviour, but went back eating happily, and Tala...

Let's say Tala was still in la-la land busy dreaming about Kai, naked and absolutely willing, chocolate covered, with cream on top, under him.

Who could blame him after all?

……………………………………………

MasterFranny: it's just me or this fic has a lighter air than my other ones? Well, review if you want another chapter, where our little strange chara will make appearance again... and you will also meet his friend Gavriil! Enjoy!

Common PS I am starting to develop a liking for two charas. Usually I am one of those 'All-Kai' lovers, with some random placed Tala and Brooklyn, just for the sake of Yaoi goodness, because those are the pairings I support (TalaKai, BrooklynKai, BrooklynKaiTala threesome); but in this period I am falling into some new chara obsession, which can be explained with two single names: Garland and Bryan. Thus, me reading and writing more of them. I also, for the first time in my like, took a liking for two females of the season. I mean, I hate all manga and anime's female charas. Kagome and Kikyou are bitches (InuYasha). Keiko and Botan are stupid dumb girls (Yu Yu Hakusho). Tea and Mai are bitches and stupid dumb girls (Yu-Gi-Oh!). Etc etc etc. Sorry if any of you like them. Thus why I can't find a hetero pairing to support. I tried, really. But nothing. Whilst, in BB G-rev, I was stupefied to find myself actually liking Matilda from the Barthetz Squad and Julia from the F-Sangre (English version, F-Destiny... or something similar). Thus one of my few Shoujo-ai pairings.
