Tyson paused, slowly opening his eyes to meet two crimson ones, "Erm… hi?" Was all he could squeak out.

Kai shivered, Tyson's voice husky with sleep, "Ah…"

Tyson paused, glancing at Kai, "Who are you?"

Kai almost smiled, in fact, he did, "Kai H-."

Tyson stared before snapping, "You're the one that yelled at me on the phone!"

Kai blinked, confused. "Wha?"

Tyson gave an almost glare, but didn't, "When you were on the phone with Ray earlier, I told you that you had a good brother and you yelled at me!"

The color drained from Kai's face, he scream at TYSON of all people! His world was DOOMED! He screamed at his GOD! (And the love of his life… XD)

"Don't mind him, Ty-chan, he didn't know it was you." Ray grinned, bringing more blankets and a pillow for Kai to sleep next to his crush.

Tyson grinned back, Kai melting on the spot, "Alrighty then Ray-chan."

Kai paused, "RAY-CHAN!" He glared at Ray, "Since when have you become a GIRL?" Was Kai's greatest thing to say now, after all, his crush was watching.

Ray rolled his eyes, "He came up with the name, ne, Ty-chan?"

Tyson smiled, "Right!"

Kai stared, biting back his lip in order to not strangle Ray. How DARE his brother even get CLOSE to Tyson like this!

Ray gave a smile, obviously ignoring Kai's glare, "Tyson, I must ask, since we don't have a bed prepared, we hadn't expected you, may it be alright if you share a room with Kai?"

Tyson paused, staring. Kai, on the other hand, turned a dark red and stared at his brother with a hope and fear in his eyes.

Kai bit his lip, staring at Ray. The hope he could sleep with his crush was strong, but the fear of what he would say or do in front of him was a whole different story.

"That would be fine." Tyson answered, truthfully confused as why Ray didn't suggest sharing a room with him.

Ray turned to smile at Kai, "Kai, go get another bed prepared for our guest, I'm sure he won't like a futon."

"Actually…"

"Right."

Tyson could feel Kai's eyes linger on him for a while before leaving, "What's up with me sharing a room with him?"

Ray smiled, walking Tyson over to their DVD collection.

Tyson paused, smiling cheerfully, "Ah, a big fan."

"From 3:30-8…" Ray grumbled, not knowing Tyson heard him.

Tyson gave a small smile, "Someone from your family is a fan, why doesn't that surprise me?"

Ray gave a grin, "It wouldn't, would it?"

""Does he know we're friends?"

Ray's grin widened, "Nope."

Tyson gave an amused chuckle, "I see."

"It's ready!" Kai came running down the stairs faster than Ray had ever seen him.

"Tyson, have you eaten yet?" Ray asked, he and Kai had eaten during Tyson time.

Tyson smirked, "Yup."

"Then we better get some sleep."

"Hai!"

Kai slowly led Tyson up to his room, gulping and holding his breath. What was he going to say?

Tyson secretly gave a smile, from Ray's words; he could tell Kai was obsessed. There were many things people in the world could have been obsessed with, like Tyson was obsessed with dragons. "So, what are you obsessed with Kai-kun?"

Kai humped, shivering at the way Tyson said his name, "Erm…" He gulped, how was he supposed to tell his crush it was him? "Nothing really."

Tyson paused; Kai wasn't one to admit it, ne? "Wanna know what I'm obsessed with?"

Kai heard Tyson pause again, 'Dragons.'

"I'm obsessed with Dragons."

"What's your favorite sacred animal?"

"A phoenix." Came Kai's quiet answer before pausing, gulping and blushing.

Tyson raised an eyebrow, "A phoenix?" That was certainly catchy. (1) "Have you noticed we've been speaking in English?"

Kai almost choked, "Yeah… erm… I don't know a lot of Japanese…"

Tyson nearly gaped, in fact, he did, "KYYYAAA? Doko no kuni kara kimashita ka?"

Kai stared, listening to his crush scream, "Erm… bless you?"

Tyson blushed, spluttering, which Kai found to be absolutely adorable, "Sorry, I was asking where you're from."

Kai blinked, "Oh, Russia."

Tyson stared, "Why are you here in Japan then?"

"Visiting my half brother, Ray."

"Ah." Tyson grinned, "From no own, I'm teaching you Japanese Kai-kun."

Kai blushed, a reason to spend time alone with Tyson! "Then I'll teach you Russian in return, Kinomiya-san."

Tyson gave a smile, "Agreed."

Kai blushed, shivers running up his spine as the smile was directed towards him-no one else was there. Just him. And that made Kai's skin tingle and his heart beat faster to know that.

They reached the room, getting into their respective beds and Kai letting Tyson borrow some clothes.

Tyson lay down, quietly smiling to himself in the dark, "Good night, Kai-kun."

Kai was sure Tyson couldn't see the dark blush on his cheeks, "Just call me Kai."

Tyson gave a grin, "as long as you call me Tyson."

Kai blushed darker, "… alright…"

Tyson smiled, he slipped his eyes shut, "Goodnight… Kai."

"… Night Tyson."

X.X.X.X.X

Kai awoke to see his crush already in the form fitting jeans and a short-sleeved 'Kyou Kaya Maou' t-shirt (any yaoi or shounen-ai fans that have not seen this, see it NOW, on youtube . com)

"Morning Kai! Ray said breakfast is ready, so let's go!" Tyson raced down the stairs as if he had been there before… as if he'd been here all of his life. Kai snagged the shirt next to him, recognizing it as the one Tyson wore last night, he held it close, breathing in Tyson's scent, he was surprised it smelled like the ozone, like the ozone usually after a storm, and somehow of forget-me-nots, Kai's birth month's flower.

God, this was heaven.

(1)-The Dragon and the Phoenix- in Japan, the Dragon is usually represented as the emperor, or king, or someone of power. This followed with the Phoenix as the more female role and soul mate of the Dragon. XD ain't history fun?
