Chapter 6: Phone Call

-----

Everyone watched a tearing Hilary run out of the training room. It was pretty hard to believe that after two years of Kai's disappearance she was hoping he'll return. It was pretty obvious that Kai and Hilary were the closest couple in the BBA, Kai loved Hilary, she taught him so much. She had changed him in ways so unimaginable that even Tyson couldn't consider the Russian had a soft spot. Marium and Emily winced at the angry stares they received from the other bladers especially from Rei, who was pretty obvious pissed.

"Ermmm we'll go find her…" Both girls said in union. Slowly walking to the entrance, they where stopped when they saw Tala angrily walk out of the gym, telling them that he'll go look for her instead. Emily nodded, while Marium just stared dumbfounded at what to do.

"Just great… now Hilary's going to do something stupid with herself again because you two reminded of her Kai and what not"

"Shut up Mariah! You're the one who keeps on holding this stupid grudge on her, what part "I can't forget about Kai" can't you understand? You shouldn't be mad at Hilary for the way she's acting now!" Marium blurted out, anger dripping from those words. She noticed how Mariah was the only one who didn't greet Hilary when she returned from the hospital, how she dragged Emily for a rematch when Hilary was talking to her.

"The way I act is none of your concern, and Hilary… she's just being stupid won't fucking realize that he won't ever come back, to stuck up into her own little world, she needs to open her eyes and forget about the past"

"So by just ignoring her and giving her a bitchy attitude, you think she'll come to her so called senses, I don't think so Mariah" Marium raised her eye brow, wow Mariah was really dim, if she really thought Hilary was going to just forget about Kai just like that then she was wrong, true love like that is really hard to just brush off.

"Marium shut up, you don't know what you're talking about"

"Ummm can you two stop fighting, we're trying to practice here, Yea… Hilary's our friend and all but c'mon guys you need to give her some space to breathe"

Everyone looked at Max, amused by his little "smart statement"

"Yea Marium… chilax dude, don't start any problems with kitty over there" warned Dunga, he really didn't feel like have two angry "crazy" girls screaming at each other for some "chick", he frowned at how that sounded off topic, two girls over one girl…

"Look fat boy, don't call me kitty alright, I have a name, and it's Mariah, get it straight!" Dunga scowled, did she just…

"Lucky pussy cat, don't start shit with me alright, cause I'll squash you like Popsicle"

"How did all this end up talking about a Popsicle?" questioned Max, looking at Mariah and Dunga humorously.

"Beats me but that fat boy compliment was hilarious" responded Daichi, giving his hotdog another savory bite.

Hilary POV:

Swallowing the lump that had formed in my throat, I couldn't help but just rest at the near by bench that faced the ocean. I was out of breath, I must have ran at least 2 miles, anywhere to be away from Tala, Oh how I regret those words, the way his expression looked so heart-broken… But there is no turning back now, is there? Maybe if I tell Tala that I may have feelings for him, would he believe me?

"You sure know where to go… when you don't want to be found" He took a seat right beside me, not making any direct eye contact. He looked cold, emotionless.

"I'm sorry" I didn't know what else today, all of this was just ruining me, and sorry? What was that going to do, apparently nothing… nothing at all.

"Its fine, it's not like I was going to make you love me anyway… It's not like you were ever going to forget about Hiwatari"

"Tala stop it… I like you… I like you alot" didn't he notice that he was hurting me? Talking about Kai was killing me, was making me regret the fact that I was falling for his best friend, If Tala really loved me… he wouldn't be hurting me, but he keeps on going, as if I'll ever realize anything.

"Yea… that's what I thought, that you forgot about Kai, and you would just move on, don't come after me if your not sure you love me Hilary, I don't want to be used as your little puppet to make you happy" Did he really think that? That I was using him to forget about him, how I hated all this… but No! I had to prove to him that I did like him. I sat myself in his lap and grabbed his neck, and just as I was about to kiss him my cell phone vibrated.

Normal POV:

"Shit" Hilary cursed, as the vibrations coming from her pocket made her fall off Tala's lap, who smirked as she desperately opened her cell phone to answer the call.

"Hello, Hilary speaking"

"Hilary…"

There was an awkward silence, for about three minutes when Tala noticed Hilary crying, unstoppable tears escaping her ruby pools.

"K-K-K ai?" Hilary stuttered as she chocked with ever tear that slipped down her eyes. Tala looked concern, when she mentioned Kai's name, could it be?

"I've missed you Hilary, I love you… Just telling you that we'll be seeing each other soon, I've missed you so much…"
