I love the reviews, thanks. I'll try to answer some at the bottom, tell me if you like the new format or not, (I don't usually do this…) Enjoy this chapter! (Just don't bit my head off, Kel lovers…) lol

Chapter7

Kel was very tired after the swim; she had used up all her energy that she had stored over the week. Now, sleeping in her own room again, she felt more comfortable.

Dom didn't know when Kel had fallen asleep in his arms. He was surprised though at her reaction to his passionate kiss. 'She must have been tired.' That's the only thought he allowed himself to think because he will surely be depressed to know that his kiss had been too boring that people will fallen asleep to it.

Dom had gathered Kel in his arms and carried her back to her own room. She had only awoke once when Dom skidded on the new polished floor. Of course, he had apologized.

Then, he went to the kitchen. Unfortunately, Meathead was there as well. "So…have you practiced flirting on Kel? You know that she will be so mad if she knew you had."

"No." Dom said evenly.

"We know your reputation as a flirter, don't break Kel's heart!" Neal warned.

"I know that you, Owen, Merric, Roaul, Tobe, and others will cook me for Thanksgiving dinner if I broke Kel's heart." Dom said, a little bit annoyed. "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Yes, then how will you prove yourself to Kel that she is not another of your toys?" Neal said casually.

"I'll cut my heart out in a plate and offer it to Kel if I broke hers. Alright?" Dom said, really annoyed now. He had planned to love Kel until he died and he was not about back down on that plan anytime soon. Dom knew if he worked his magic of flirting on Kel, she cannot resist, but Dom feel that he wanted Kel to come to him willingly.

Without another word about this topic, Neal smiled and walked back to his own room. The victory of this conversation was his.

While the argument was taking place in the kitchen, Kel was semi-awoke. She heard the door opened and struggled to sit upright on the pillow. Opening her eyes, she saw Neal walking in with a bowl. Somehow, his walking style seemed a little bit different…and his pose, too. She remembered Neal saying that he will never stand like that when they saw it in a book, but now, Neal was standing exactly like that pose. Something was not right.

"You know, you've swear to me that you will never pose like that," Kel retorted.

The Neal that stood in front of Kel raised an eyebrow, but did not say anything. Kel remembered that Neal could not raise an eyebrow like she could no matter how much time he put into it in front of the mirror each day. Something was not right!

Instead of saying anything, Neal put the bowl in front of her and said simply. "Drink."

Now, it's Kel's turn to raise an eyebrow. His voice was a little bit different too, but Kel cannot place her fingers on what was different. "Drink? Did someone rattle your brain or something? You said yourself that you have never said one word as a sentence because that's too lame…What's got into you?"

"Drink." He repeated.

"What is it?" Kel asked.

"Drink!" Now, the word came out wrong in his mouth, partly because Neal's voice wasn't that husky. Finally out of patience, he plunged forward and shoveled the drink down Kel's throat. Kel tried to defend herself but failed. As the disgusting drink poured down her throat, her vision started to darken, her eyelids started to close, but not before she saw the ugly smirk on Neal's face.

'No, that's not Neal!' Kel thought as she slipped into her nightmares again.

You will see the outcome of another attempted murder in the next chapter. Kel was poisoned and likely to die, and that's not Neal by her bedside. Stay turned for the next chapter!
