Chapter Six-Confessions, part one
Me: Chapter 6 is hereeeeee! This is the chapter where I must admit, Kai is VERY out of character. So all of you Kai fans out there, don't kill me. I love him too and I have no clue why I made him this horrible ( That part of the chapter was so hard for me to write because I love Kai so much and I can't imagine him being that mean to someone.)
Kai: You should apologize to me for making me so horrible. I have to deal with it too!
Me: I'm sorry Kai...And now we must figure out who the Hot Mystery Voice is !
Elisa: REVEAL YOURSELF!
HMV: Fine, I am... :drum roll and suspenseful music:
Tyson: Tala?
Me:TALA :glomps onto Tala:
Tala; Yup, it's me.
Elisa: Wow... you're not in this story for another like, 4 or 5 chapters...
Tala:shrugs: oh well...
Me: Be nice, read my disclaimer!
Tala, fine, beyondxredemption owns nothing! especially not beyblade.
Me: But I do own Tala!
Tala: Nope, sorry, you don't. NO ONE OWNS MEEEEE!
Me:pouts, fine. I don't own Tala either... Now let's just get on with the chapter.
Elisa: By the way, I don't think Robert's even in this chapter, so no "Robert Uncouth Counter"
Recap:"Nicole. are you ok?" He asked.
Before I could answer, everything went black...
Chapter Start
I woke up in an unfamiliar room. I was laying on a king size bed. At the other side of the room there was a 72'' TV, and a bathroom was connected to the bedroom. I looked around and saw everyone else all sitting around the bed.
"Where the hell am I?" I asked.
"You're in my room. You fainted from the heat. Since your team is going to stay here over night, you're just gonna stay in my room," Johnny explained.
"Figured," I groaned at the 'you fainted from the heat' part. "Wait, if this is your room, where are you gonna stay?"
"I'll just stay in another room, or on the couch or something."
"Johnny, this is your room and your bed. I'm not about to kick you out of it. The bed takes up like, half of the room. Just stay on your side and we'll be fine." I emphasized the next part so Enrique would hear.
"JUST DON'T BE LIKE ENRIQUE AND GRAB ME AND HANG ALL OVER ME WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE TO BE ALONE WITH ME!"
"Hey!" Enrique laughed. "Why are you dragging me into this?"
"Deal, I promise I won't be a stupid Italian playboy," Johnny agreed. Enrique looked jokingly offended by the statement.
"I need to talk to my team for a minute," Kai announced. "Alone."
As the Europeans left the room, I distinctly heard Enrique say to Johnny,
"You lucky son of a bitch!"
Kai shut the door behind them and stood against the wall in his normal position. (Arms folded, against the wall, you get the idea)
"So, who won the match?" I asked.
Everyone was silent.
"I take it that it wasn't Kai..." I assumed.
"The only reason why the rest of the team is in here is because I don't want everyone questioning me as to why we were alone together," Kai announced, still leaning against the wall.
"Sounds fair," I grunted as I sat up against the wood on the back of the bed.
Kai moved away from the wall and came over to the bed, He glared at me in a way that if looks could kill, I would've been tortured to death on the spot.
"You're a fucking whore, you know that?"
"EXCUSE ME?" I snapped.
"You heard me. There's tons of other rooms in the house, why did you have to offer to share a room with Johnny, let alone a bed?"
"It's his room Kai, I wasn't about to kick him out of it!"
"Yeah right Nicole. You're probably planning on sleeping with him or something."
"Is that what you really think of me?"
"Yeah it is. I think you're a slut."
It was at that precise moment that the color drained from my face and every cold sweat nightmare and bloody memory I've ever had came flooding back to me. This had happened before, but the first time it happened, Kai wasn't the one who said it. The first time, it was the kid that I had the biggest crush on. I think it might've even been my first real crush. All he knew about me was my name, and that I liked him. He used how I dressed for one day to judge who I was. Needless to say, I didn't take it very well when I found out about what he said. I came so close to just ending everything right there. But I didn't, and I still can't be called anything like what Kai was calling me because it brought back so many bad memories.I can't even say the kid's name who started it.
I got up from the bed and went to go punch Kai in the face, but he caught my hand. He used his free hand to back hand slap me in the face. The rest of my team looked on, knowing they could do nothing. Kai opened the door and walked out. The others followed his lead and Johnny walked in. He saw me on the floor, sobbing hysterically with a huge bruise on my face, closed the door, and sat down in front of me.
"What happened? Are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine, don't worry about it," I assured.
"I don't want to see you like this. I really like you."
I didn't believe him at first because no one had ever said that to me. I was the only one out of all of my girl friends that never had a boyfriend. I looked in his eyes and saw that he was actually serious. I didn't know what to say at all.
We talked for a little while after I calmed down. At around 9:00 when we were watching TV, Elisa called again.
"Hey kid," she greeted. "What's up?"
"Nothing much," I answered. "Just chillen with Johnny. I proceeded to tell her about the arrangements that we made for that night (the whole me and Johnny sharing a room thing)
"Nice, I'm proud of you kid. You might actually get your first boyfriend.
"Yeah... really nice..."
"Nicole, there's something I need to ask you about, but if Johnny likes you then he shouldn't hear it. Can you make him leave the room?"
"It's his room, I don't wanna kick him out."
"Well, you could always give him a boner, that way he'd have to leave to go to the bathroom. It should give us enough time."
"What!" I whispered loud enough for her to her. "And how exactly do you expect me to do that?"
"Use your imagination Nicole. But please, don't take it too far."
"Fine, give me a half hour or less. If I don't call you back in 45 minutes, call me, ok?"
"Gotcha, talk to you soon." We hung up.
'I can't believe I'm doing this...' I said to myself,
"Who was that?" Johnny asked.
"My best friend," I answered.
I laid down and put my head in his lap.
"You're comfy."
"Thanks," he smiled.
Johnny picked me up and turned me around so I was facing him. We just stared at each other for a little while... until he leaned in to kiss me. I realized it was now or never and I went along with it. (A.N. Since I am sickeningly inexperienced, this will have very little detail lol) While we were making out I realized that I was getting my first kiss all because my best friend wanted to tell me something. THIS HAD BETTER BE GOOD. I AM GOING TO MURDER HER WHEN I SEE HER IN RUSSIA FOR THE TOURNAMENT. Thankfully, it didn't take very long for Elisa's little scheme to work.
"I'll be right back," Johnny announced and he ran to the bathroom.
Once he shut the door, I called Elisa back.
"Yello?" She answered.
"YOU FUCKING OWE ME ELISA!" I laughed/snapped.
"So it worked then?"
"Yeah it worked. I'm taking some points off of what you owe me though because he was good. So what do you need to talk about?"
She took a deep breath, as if she knew what she was going to say wasn't going to be good,
"How are things going between you and Kai?"
I told her everything. From the fight before we met Robert, to the first fist fight, to the encounter not even one hour before. Then I broke down.
"He really said that?" Elisa asked, referring to what happened a little while ago.
"Yeah," I answered. "Everything came back to me once he said it. I didn't know if I would be able to take it,"
"That stupid fuck. I always knew you'd hit him one day. But I had no clue he'd actually hit you back."
"I didn't know either. And I never knew he could be so horrible."
"Have you listened to you iPod yet?"
"Yeah, right after the argument while we were waiting for Robert. I went into the bathroom and put it on."
"What did it play?"
"When love and death embrace. But it's probably defective."
"No it isn't. I got it for you less than three months ago when you won the American Tournament. If it was defective it would've given you problems before. I think you should just listen to what it has to tell you."
"My iPod talks?" I asked in a Max-like fashion.
"That's not what I mean dipshit! That song, at that specific time. I think you're in love."
"WITH KAI?" I yelled, but not too loud.
"Yeah." She was acting like it wasn't a big deal. But it was,
"That's impossible! That's insane! That's inhuman!"
"Just admit it Nicole, you like him. That's why you always get so upset when the two of you fight."
I was silent. Was she right? I knew I liked him before, but do I still? I did, and I knew I did. But I just didn't want to admit to it.
"Well?" She asked.
"Damn you and your ability to be right all the time!" I cursed.
"So you admit to the fact that you're in love with Kai?" I could tell she was smirking as she asked that. As if she won.
"Ye-yes..."
"Good, now I have to go call him and yell at him for being such an asshole."
"Don't say anything!"
"Oh don't worry, I won't. But I will have to tell the rest of the guys."
"Why?"
"Heh, you'll see Nicole. Call you tomorrow."
"Okay, bye Elisa."
We hung up and I waited for Johnny to come out of the bathroom. Just as I was about to take out my iPod, he came back.
"Welcome back," I smiled. I was about to say ,"Did you have fun?" But I changed my mind.
"Thanks," he replied, sitting down next to me. "Um... I was wondering..."
"Yeah?"
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
"Are you serious?"
"Yeah, I am. I really like you."
"Okay," I answered.
"Yessss," he smiled.
Johnny fell asleep not too long after, but I was kept awake. Everything that Elisa said was really making me think. I was going out with Johnny, and I really liked him. But I was in love with Kai. That sentence didn't sound like it made any sense. Could those words be used in a sentence together? I still couldn't believe it, After all of the fights, and insults, and everything he put me through... I was in love with him...
(With the Bladebreakers)
"We could all challenge them as a team!" Ray suggested. "That way we could all avenge Kai's loss."
"Great idea ray!" Tyson agreed.
After Max and Kenny agreed, Ray's cell phone rang.
"Hello?" He answered.
"RAAAAAAYYYYY!" It was Elisa.
"Hey Elisa, what's up?"
"Oh nothing much... except for the fact that I got a certain pink haired team mate of yours to admit that she likes a certain team captain..."
"Are you serious? She really admitted it?"
"Very... Now would you mid putting the blue-haired fucker on the phone? I need to have a few words with him."
"Sure."
(Kai's POV)
I was listening to their conversation pretending to be asleep so they wouldn't ask for my input. Oh how I hate their little team discussions. Then Ray's cell phone rang. All I could hear from Elisa's end was, "certain pink haired team mate, team captain, and blue-haired fucker." She must want to talk to me. She does call me that once in a while when she gets pissed at me.
"Kai," ray called. "Phone for you."
I took the phone.
"What?"
"YOU MOTHERFUCKER!" Elisa yelled.
"Hello to you too Elisa..."
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT SHIT! WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY TO HER!"
I had to admit, Elisa was pretty protective of Nicole. Not to the point where she fights her battles for her. But to the point where if something happens to her or if someone hurts her, Elisa will personally make that person pay. That's what she did last time someone seriously hurt Nicole. I think he was in a coma for 2 whole weeks. But then again, he made Nicole start cutting, so I guess Elisa felt like he deserved it.
"Who?" I asked,
"DON'T PLAY DUMB!" She snapped. "Explain to me why when I asked Nicole how things were going between the two of you, she fucking broke down?"
"we had a few arguments. That's all."
"A few arguments? Half her face is a giant bruise and the other half is going to have a scar from her temple to the bottom of her jaw! Don't you DARE say it was a few 'arguments.'"
"She deserved it."
"Just remember this, Nicole doesn't hate you as much as you think and you don't hate her as much as you think. AND IF I FIND OUT THAT YOU HURT HER AGAIN OR THAT SHE STARTED AGAIN BECAUSE OF YOU, I'LL PERSONALLY FUCKING KILL YOU! Now put Ray back on, I'm fucking sick of talking to you."
I put Ray back on the phone and thought about what Elisa said.
"Just remember this, Nicole doesn't hate you as much as you think and you don't hate her as much as you think. " What the hell did that mean?
(Ray's POV)
"Ray," Elisa began. "I don't care what you have to do, make Kai admit that he likes her."
"He likes her?" I asked.
"I know it, you know it, the rest of your team knows it. Kai just won't admit it. And Nicole, is just clueless. Get him to admit it and I'll work on getting them together. Deal?"
"Deal."
We hung up and I thought to myself,
"This is gonna take a while..."
Kai: Wow... I was horrible...
Elisa; Yeah you were...
Tala: Where's BXR?
Elisa: In the corner... she doesn't like telling that story... because half of it is true...
Tala: ooooooo
Elisa: SO I SHALL TAKER HER PLACE! MUAHAHAHAAA! Now... read and review children... heh heh heh...
Max: The moon is made of cheese... D
