Chapter Fourteen: Surprise
Normal P.O.V
Kai woke up as the morning sun dawned on his face. He sat up, yawned and stretched before rubbing his eyes. He stopped when he saw something at the end of the bed. Kai threw off the blanket and crawled over to the neat, folded pile of……………clothes? Kai raised an eyebrow in confusion as he picked up the piece of paper at the top. A slow smile made its way onto Kai's face as he read.
Morning sunshine!
How did you sleep? Ok, if you're reading this, that means you were able to wake up and live another day! And if you're not reading this, then that means I lost my chance to tell you how much I l-…………………….ok, back on track.
You're most probably wondering why there's a pile of clothes on your bed. Well, I was thinking that you probably were getting sick of wearing the same thing, so I decided to make you some clothes! Hope you like them! The shirt at the very top has your favourite word on it! Hope the sowing machine didn't keep you up! And if it did, sue me! No, please don't, really!
Bye, from your (Aya).
Kai read the two last words again.
"Your (Aya)?" he murmured.
Kai carefully placed the note next to the pile and examined the top shirt. It was black, with blood-red graffiti writing on it. At the front it said WHAT. Kai turned the shirt around. He grinned when he saw the back. In the same writing read, EVER! Kai chuckled.
"(Aya), you know me, maybe a bit too well."
Kai got out of bed and changed into the shirt and a pair of baggy dark-blue pants that were ripped up at the ankles. Kai walked into the kitchen to find (Aya) standing over the cook-top, frying bacon and eggs. Smirking, Kai crept up behind (Aya) and wrapped his arms around her waist. (Aya) looked up from the frying pan and froze. Kai kissed (Aya) behind her jawbone.
"Morning sunshine." Kai whispered into (Aya's) ear.
(Aya) smiled and concentrated on the pan again.
"I take it that you read the note."
"Yeah. Thanks for the clothes, they're really comfy."
(Aya) laughed as she put the cooked food onto a plate.
"I'm glad that you like them."
"Especially this shirt."
(Aya) stepped out of Kai's arms, turned off the cook-top and turned around.
"Ah yes, the 'whatever' shirt." (Aya) laughed.
(Aya) stretched, causing her night-shirt to lift up, showing that her pants hung quite low, as well as showing her stomach. Kai fought back the blush trying to show on his face, as well as the desire to slam (Aya) up against the wall and….. Kai shook his head, trying to rid himself of the thought.
'Come on Kai; pull yourself together, before you look like an idiot!'
/Personally, I'd like to see what would happen if you did so/
/Shut up Dranzer/
"Kai, is something bothering you?"
Kai looked at (Aya) and shook his head before sitting down. (Aya) shrugged then sat down to eat her breakfast.
Since the sun was out today, the two teens decided to go outside. Kai was practicing with Dranzer, while (Aya) was sitting in a tree nearby, watching Kai, as well as thinking about him.
Everybody's got a point of view
And the right to their own opinion
So don't be scared of what I'm gonna do
When you let me know your intuition
So what makes you think that I won't get it?
So what makes you think that I won't get your love tonight?
'He's so mysterious. Usually, the expression on someone's face will tell you what they're thinking, but with Kai, he's just so hard to figure out.'
Speak, come on and let it out
Give it to me
You know that I can take it
Speak, because the more you say
The more I'm at ease
Come on and don't keep me waiting
Don't wanna guess, not a test, tell me what you're thinking
Keep it real, no big deal; tell me what you're dreaming
Speak, let it out, breathe
(Speak, straight from your heart)
'And eyes are the windows to a person's soul. Not with Kai. Whenever I look into his eyes, they're so cold. Yet deep. I guess that's what I like about him. The complex mystery.'
It can't be wrong
It can only be right
To show me what you are feeling
You'll be surprised at how easy it is
To open up, it's so healing
So what makes you think that I won't get it?
So what makes you think that I won't get your love tonight?
'But during the past couple of days, I've noticed that the ice around his heart has started to melt. He really is a sweet guy on the inside. I wonder what made him so cold? Could it have something to do with his past? I know that sometimes I build up walls because of mine. But I learned to let it go, as it was better that way. So is there really something so bad about Kai's past that he can't let go of? If so, what is it?'
Speak, come on and let it out, give it to me
You know that I can take it
Speak, because the more you say
The more I'm at ease
Come on don't keep me waiting now
Don't wanna guess, not a test, tell me what you're thinking
Keep it real, no big deal; tell me what you're dreaming
Speak, let it out, breathe
When Kai was finished with his beyblading practice, he caught Dranzer in his hand and pocketed it. Kai turned and looked up at the tree (Aya) was sitting in.
"Are you going to come down from there (Aya)?"
(Aya) leaned forward so she could see Kai more clearly.
"Maybe, maybe not." She smirked.
A small smirk made its way onto Kai's lips. "Do I have to climb up there and get you?"
(Aya's) smirk broadened. "Yeah, I guess so."
Kai's smirk became more obvious as he started to climb the tree. Just as he was about to reach (Aya), she started to climb higher.
"Hey, get back here!"
(Aya) just laughed and continued to climb until she couldn't climb any higher. Kai pulled himself up onto the same branch as (Aya) and inched slowly towards her.
"You can't get away now."
"Oh, you think so?"
"I know so." Kai replied smoothly, inching closer.
(Aya) breathed in sharply, noticing how close Kai was getting. (Aya) backed up the branch until her back met the tree trunk. Kai smiled as he brushed (Aya's) hair back behind her ear. Then he cupped her cheek with his hand, his face slowly moving towards hers.
(Aya's) eyes darted from Kai's lips to his eyes, trying to take in the fact that they were coming closer. Just as their eyes were about to close, their lips a millimetre apart, a child's gleeful shriek rang through the air.
Both of them blinked and Kai's head jerked back slightly. (Aya) let out a nervous chuckle and started to climb down the tree.
'I can not believe that Kai was about to kiss me!' (Aya) thought hysterically in her head.
Kai sighed and ran a hand through his bangs, then jumped out of the tree and followed (Aya) into the house.
Later on that day, in the afternoon, (Aya) knocked on Kai's open bedroom door. Kai turned his head away from the window and looked at (Aya). She gave him a small smile.
"Hey, I was just going down for a walk to the beach and I was wondering if you wanted to come with me."
A slight smile appeared on Kai's lips as he nodded and followed (Aya) out.
On the way there, (Aya) absentmindedly reached out and grasped Kai's hand. Kai looked down when he felt the touch and smiled. Then, carefully, he intertwined (Aya's) fingers with his.
When they reached the beach, (Aya) sat down on the sand, staring out at the horizon.
"So, what's the point of coming here?"
"No point. Just waiting."
"For what?" Kai asked, confused.
"Sunset." (Aya) replied calmly, never taking her eyes away from the place where the ocean met with sky.
"So we just sit here?"
"Uh-huh." (Aya) nodded.
"And wait for the sun to set."
"Yep." (Aya) nodded again.
Kai looked at (Aya), then leaned back and looked at the horizon himself.
"Sweet."
(Aya) inched closer and rested her head on Kai's shoulder. "I am."
Kai smiled and tilted his head to rest on (Aya's). "You are."
Yay! Finally, I updated! Aren't you proud of me? (grins) LOL, just kidding. Anywho, I have more reviews to reply to.
Dark Phoenix Angel Nami: Ep. Please, please don't kill me! And you can't kill me anyway, and if you did, I wouldn't be able to updateany more.Ah, yes, ain't they all? Though my dad's alright though, he's quite laid-back. And I beat up practically all the guys I meet, as they're complete dickheads. The world would be better without them, I say.
Dark-IceAngel04: Ah, I finally updated, aren't you happy? Ah, suspense, that's what keeps you reading the story, isn't it? And it's also the reason that you like it so much. Well, second to Kai, that is. ;) Cute? Cute! Honey, the guy is totally hot! You should see all the MSN pictures I have of him, a crazy person would say that I have too much, but you can never have too much of Kai, right? And welcome to the club, new reviewer!
