Yay, reveiws! Thank you Moonlight Shadow1106, Truth or Desire, Bluestray, Crimson Eyes, Wreckless Spirit, Stormelle, and EyedMayfor reveiwing my story. Sorry if I got anyone's name wrong.I wanted to get the next chapter up as soon as possible! So, here I go...
Disclaimer: I do not own any beyblade. If I did the bad guys would be cute. (Exept Tala because he's already cute, then again he's not exactly a bad guy.) But, enough of my chit chat. On with the story!
It took a while, but once again Kai opened the door. When he saw Mariah he got a very confused look on his face. "Mariah? What are you doing here? I thought you were in China." All Mariah did was stand there. Her face displayed no emotion."Hello, I'm talking to you!" Kai shouted, but still got no responce from the pink haired girl.
Now, he was mad. No one ignores him. So he just tried to close the door, but Mariah put her foot in the way. "What do you want!" he damanded opening the door a little more.
Mariah pushed her way past Kai into the house. "What the..." Kai didn't finish his sentance because Tyson came in yelling, "Hey, Kai who's at the door! Oh!" he stopped walking. "Hi, Mariah what brings you here?" he greeted, a huge grin on his face.
This time Mariah actually answered, "Nothing." she strugged boringly. Kai noticed her 2 bags. But, before he could tell her that she was not staying there with them, Mariah asked, "So, where's my room?" she looked around the front room.
It was big, a ceiling fan,3 sofas, and wide screen t.v. to put it all together. Kai was about to make a statement when Mariah walked off. "Where are you going!" Mariah just kept walking down the hall. On her way she passed Ray and Max.
Kai and Tyson just stood there with a raised eyebrow. Ray and Max finally came out of the hallway to see Tyson and Kai looking confused. "Hey, you guys was that... Mariah?" Max pointed into the hallway. 'Mariah... what's she doing here?' Ray thought.
Pretty soon they all heard, "Wow, this room is big and mine!" their heads all turned to Kai, he did have the biggest room in the house besides the front room.Kai had a frustrated look on his face. He was the first to go storming down the hall, the rest followed.
And sure enough Mariah was in Kai's room walking around. "Out!" he barked. "Make me." Mariah planted herself on the bed. "Get out of my room." Kai walked inside and stood over her. The pink haired teen just sat there, not answering.
The rest of the Bladebreakers stood back, the worse kind of Kai was an angry one. "What is your problem..." before Kai could finish his sentance Mariah quickly said, "You." Ray, Max ,and Tyson looked at each other.
"Why you little..." Kai was steeming. "Hehe, why don't I take care of her for you?" Ray tried to calm Kai down. "Mariah, what are you doing here?" Ray calmly asked. He recived no answer. To tell you the truth, she couldn't answer most of the questions they were asking.
She was sent there to do something, and no one must find out. So, the best thing she could do is either make up an excuse or say nothing. She prefered the second one. 'This is fun.' she thought. 'I never realized the one thing that pisses Kai off more than talking, is not talking.'
She acidentally smirked on the outside. "Mariah, are you o.k?" Ray looked her in the eyes. "Yeah." she stood up. "Now you know what would make me even better." she put her hands behind her back and eased Ray out the door.
"What?" Ray asked. His answer was a door slammed inhis face. "You pink furball, get out of my room!" Kai commanded. "Why is Mariah acting like this?" Max looked at them. "I'm gonna pick the lock." Kai walked away.
1A.M.
"You know it's not polite to show up to some one's house uninvited!" Kai shouted at the door, desperately tring to pick the lock. He growled. "Oh, she is so going to pay." he said under his breath.
Inside Mariah's room
She walked comfortably around in the room wearing Kai's blue robe after taking a long bubble bath. Now, she was ready to lay back and go to sleep. She pulled back the cover and slowly got in the bed. "Good night, Kai!" she yelled.
Snuggling into the blankets, she slid her hand under the pillow and felt something hard. Being courious, she sat up and lifted her pillow to revile a blue book with flames on it.
"Wow, what's this? A diary perhaps!" she said just loud enough for Kai to hear. Kai's eyes widened. "Mariah, don't you dare read my journal!" Kai tried harder to open the door. Finally, they heard a "click" followed by a "Uh, oh." Kai twisted the knob. "Now, you are dead."
Mariah jumped out of a bed and backed into the wall. Kai got closer and closer.'Think me, think.' Mariah didn't know what to do. Then she looked down and remembered the book in her hand.
She held up Kai's diary. "Stop or I'll read it." she threatened. "You wouldn't!" Kai stopped walking. Mariah turned to the first page. "No, don't!" Kai held his hand up as if saying stop. She closed the book.
"Ok, get out now." Mariah made a shooing motion. "No way, this is my room. You can't just come into some one house and claim their room!" Kai glared at her. She glared back more intensely. Kai glared even more. Before they knew it they were having a glaring contest.
It went on for about 2 minutes. Mariah was the first to give up. "O.k. o.k.I'll let you stay." Mariah folded her arms. "But I'm not leaving either." she smirked. 'I guess that's the best I can get... for tonight, but in the morning she's out!' Kai thought to himself. "Hello! Earth to Kai, have you landed on Mars yet?" Mariah joked. Kai jerked back into reality. Mariah raised and eyebrow. "I'm sorry, 'Princess Mariah', I wasn't listening." he teased.
"O.k. I'll say it again for you, my 'servant'." She countered his last remark. "You will sleep on the floor and I'll take the bed." she hopped on the bed. "No, you're on the floor,it's mybed." sitting on the bed, Kai noticed Mariah pouting. "I'm the princess. You have to obey me." she fake wined. "Well..." Kai was cut short by a phone ringing. (A/N: Poor Kai he can never get out what he has to say.)They looked around. "Sorry, gotta take this call." she reached in her suite case and pulled out a black and pink cell phone.
She fipped it open. "Hello." her voice was mono toned. "Mariah..." came a creepy voice. Mariah covered up the phone. "Hold on." she held up one finger to Kai. He rolled his eyes.
Mariah walked into the bathroom and closed the door. "Hello." she put the phone back to her ear. "Mariah, do you have step two of the mission done?" came the voice. "No, not yet, sir." she replied strongly. "Mariah, I trusted you are not playing around again." the voice sort of scolded. "Aw... come on, it makes the mission more fun." her voice sounded excided. She sat on the sink. "Do I have to send some one to come and get you?" the person on the other end asked sternly.
"No, sir." she sounded like a soldier in the military. "Good..." his voice made Mariah's hair stand on end. It was creepy and cold."Hurry and finish step two, by tomarrow." "Tomorrow!" Mariah noticed her tone and quieted down.
"Tomorrow? I can't get him there by tomorrow." she complaned. "You will have him here by tomorrow or else!" Mariah was getting mad. "No, the day after tomorrow!" she argued walking back and foward in the bathroom. She completely forgot about Kai.
"Mariah, did you forget who's in control?" he yelled. "Who has your brother and friends captive?" he reminded her. "You." she gave up. "I'm glad you remember. Now, I want him by tomorrow!" he commanded. The next thing she heard was the dial tone.
She stood there for about three minutes, thinking on how she was supose to get this thing done by tomorrow. 'How am I supose to do this? Why me? What did I do to deserve this?' she sat on the toilet stool's lid and sighed.Looking around, she noticed how nice the bathroom was. 'Man, Mr. Dickingson really went all out when he bought this place.'
The bathroom was mostly blue and white. The shower curtains had fish on them, and really, so did everything else. Mariah got up sighing, she walked out of the bathroom. Just when she saw Kai she remembered what happened before the phone had rang.
He was sleeping peacefully in the bed. He had his journal tightly closed in his arms. Mariah walked over to the bed and looked at him for a moment. His face expression was calm. While he slept he didn't make a sound. She stood there before she finally realized, 'Hey, where am I going to sleep!' Mariah thought for a moment. 'I am not sleeping on the sofa, I want this bed!' she moved Kai's sleeping form over a little and got in beside him.
'Humph! Told him I was sleeping in this bed.' she closed her eyes and driffed off to dream land.
But, in Ray's room. He tosted and turned in the cover. He just counldn't get Mariah out of his mind, not even in his sleep. It wasn't long ago before he fell asleep! 15 minutes tops. "Mariah..." he mumbled, clutching his covers. "I'm...sorry." he turn on his other side. The light from the moon spilled over him. Almost all the lights in town were off and you could see billions of stars.
It was a peaceful night, but Ray just wasn't getting a peaceful slumber. "Mariah..." he kick the covers away from his body. "I...miss you." he whispered. "No...please...come back." he was sweating badly. He couldn't find a good sleeping postion. It wasn't long before he turned over and hit the floor.
That woke him up."Ou..." he growned getting up. "She's even in my dreams." he looked up at the stars. 'Why can't stop thinking about her?' he thought to himself. 'Maybe some water will help' he slowly made his way to his room door. Opening it, the first sound that reasched his ears was Tyson's loud snoring.
He shook his head and headed down the hall to the kitchen. Ray opened the frig and took out a jug of water. He carefully poured it into a cup he got out of the cabinet. Ray's ears picked up foot steps coming to the kitchen. 'Mariah.' was his first thought. 'No, no. I got to stop thinking about her.' he convinced himself.
The steps were getting closer. Ray's eyes were fixed on the kitchen entrance. For some reason his heart was beating fast, as if the person were going to jump out and scare him. The person finally made it to the kitchen. Ray was happy to see that it was only Max, yet a little disappointed.
"Ray?" Max rubbed some of the sleep out of his eyes. "What are you doing up so late?"the blond asked. Ray smiled, "Nothing, just couldn't sleep."Max got a drink of water and joined Ray at the table. There was a defeating silence.They could hear the clock on the wall tick with every second of silence. Darkness from the hallway was kept out by the kitchen light.
Ray sighed and looked up at Max. "Hey, Max?" Max looked up at Ray. "Can I tell you something? And you promise not to tell any one?" Max nodded. "I promise, what is it Ray?" Ray took a deep breath. "Max, I think I made a terrible mistake." Ray looked down at his night pants.Max cocked his head to the side.
"When? What did you do?" Max was concerned. "Remember when I told you Mariah said she loved me." Ray swallowed thinking about that night."Yeah, and you said you only loved her as a sister." Max remembered. At first, he was a little confused about why Ray brought that up, but when he really thought about it he knew where that conversation was going.
Ever since that night Ray told Mariah he didn't love her in 'that' way,Ray and Max had been hanging out more and more (A/N:This is not Yoai people.). Their sort of like best friends now. Whenever one of them had a problem the other would try their best to help. In this situation, Ray had the problem and Max had to help.
Max could see that Ray was struggling to get the words right. "Ray, it's o.k. you can tell me." Max comforted Ray. "I think that... I might... actually be getting real feelings for her." Ray was happy to get that of his chest. Max smiled a little. "Let me guess, you worried that if you tell her she won't return your feelings because you dissed her before?" Asumed Max. Ray answered with a nod.
Max thought for a while, before saying,"Ray remember, Mariah is not Lee. I don't think she's very big on grudges." Max laughed. Ray just smiled. "So, don't worry. Her feelings couldn't have just flown out the window." this time Ray laughed with him.
'Max is right, Mariah can't just stop loving me like that.' "Thanks Max, you're a real friend." he smiled at his best friend. They both hopped off the chairs and headed for bed.
O.k. I'm finally done. Even though I still think this chapter was too short, please reveiw and tell me what you think. I know Mariah was acting very ooc, but hey, check the title. Any way, I'lltry to have my next chapter up faster. TTFN!
