A/N: Yes, it's finally here! ch.3 ! And I know this time I do not have any excuses as to why it's late. I was originally gonna update once a week but then things kinda got out of hand. I suffered severe writers block, then I had tests after that I went on vacation, then started writing something else but then I was busy, then there were more tests and extra homework. However, before the end of my school year (which is in two weeks) and I go to high school, I wanted to get another chapter out! Also I'm going on vacation again in two weeks. I won a scholarship to go to Costa Rica with some of my class mates and teachers. And then after that I should be leaving again to goad visit my sister who just had her second (no she is not a teenager!) Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the chapter! Oh and for those of you who read the last ending with the whole Rei's diary thing it kinda got me thinking to write a fic containing what's in that diary! (O scary! Ok, ok so it's not the most original idea, and there's about at least 12 different Beyblade stories out there about diaries probably more but I didn't want to put some ridiculous number and look like an idiot, so just review and tell me what you think! And I do mean review!)
Warning: Kai Rei pairings so don't like don't read!
Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade, anyone who's telling you different their telling you dead wrong (anyone who guesses where I got this from I'll update faster and put into the next chapter whatever they want! I'll give you a hint it starts with a C but that's all I'm saying!)
Scared of Thunder
Rei's P.O.V.
It was after lunch, Kai and I were sitting on the couch with Kai's arms curled around my waist, which I might add felt good, we had been sitting that way for what seemed like hours, and I couldn't help but feel relaxed as I felt the rise and fall of his well built muscular chest. He closed his eyelids as he listened to the rain that had been steadily pouring all day, but it was now starting to rain harder, he couldn't help but sigh. This was nice; I enjoyed the sound of rain as long as there was no thunder or lightning.
CRACK!
What was that! I immediately jumped up, but was surprised when Kai's strong arms caught me and held me closer to him.
"Sh," he said "what's wrong?"
'I know, I know, I hate to admit this but yes I'm scarred of thunder… anybody got a problem with that!'
"Rei?" he asked
Silence
"Its alright you can tell me," he added
CRACK!
I immediately snuggled closer into his arms Kai let out a knowing sigh
"Its not a crime to be scared of thunder you know"
"I'm NOT scarred alright!"
"Oh really?" Kai gave me one of his 'you really think you can lie to me looks.'
CRACK!
A clap of thunder louder than all the others could be heard directly above. The light from the flash illuminated the entire dreary room.
'I let out a high pitched squeal right before ducking under the pillows that were on the couch, building myself a fort (for some reason Kai has a lot of pillows on his couch) to "protect" myself from the terrors of the thunder and lightning. Kai just raised one of his eyebrows and looked at me as if I was crazy.
"What are you doing?" he asked with a hint of amusement in his voice
"Hiding," I said from inside my pillow fort
"From what?"
"From that!" I said, pointing a shaking finger upwards.
"But I thought that you weren't scarred."
"I'm not! I'm just rightfully concerned for my health that's all!"
CRACK!
I ducked back under my sanctuary and tried to become one with the couch.
"You're pathetic" was all I heard before a pair of strong arms wrapped around my waist and began to lift me up out of my hiding place.
Kai's P.O.V.
I began to lift my kitten up from his fort of pillows. It amazed me just how cat like he really was I. mean sure he was part cat, but to really see him act this way I really saw the similarities. I picked him up bridal style then headed towards my room. At this point Rei began to look around. He noticed where we were heading and gave me a questioning look. I just shook my head, I would explain later.
When we got there, I placed him on my bed and started to roll back the covers motioning for him to get in. He did and immediately grabbed a pillow, then moved himself until he was in a comfortable position. Once he was in, I sat on the bed taking off my shoes (Rei already had his off since he doesn't like to where his shoes in the house) and went under with him.
"Hey Kai," Rei said, moving closer to me and putting his head next to my chest, which made me feel like jumping him right the and there.
"Hnn?" I replied looking at him.
"Why did you do that?"
"What do you mean, do what?"
"Everything, tell me to take a shower, try and put make-up on me, kiss me, wrap your arms around me on the couch, bring me up here?"
"Well the shower was so that you didn't catch a cold, the make-up was for fun, the kiss was because I felt like it..."
"Oh..." Rei looked kind of crest fallen at this.
I noticed this and quickly added "also because I really like you and wouldn't mind maybe… going out sometime."
"You really mean it!" Rei sat up, his eyes had this pleading look in them, as if they would shatter if I didn't say yes.
"Of course," I answered, "do I look like the kind of person who says things just to hear himself talk?"
Rei looked somewhat ashamed for accusing Kai of such a thing, he looked down and guiltily replied "no".
"I didn't think so, now get to sleep."
"Alright," and with that Rei quickly fell into a deep sleep.
THE NEXT MORNING
REI'S P.O.V.
'I woke up to the smell of food and quickly made my way down to the kitchen I saw Kai
sitting at the dinning room table sipping on a cup of coffee. As I walked through the door way Kai looked up from his cup of coffee and got up to pull out the chair right next to his offering it to me. Walking up to him, I said a quick thank you before I gave him a peck on the cheek making him blush (A/N: I know Kai out of character, but please just work with me here!) then I promptly sat down in my seat.
After gaining his composure, Kai started to head towards the kitchen. As he got to the doorway of the kitchen, he stopped and turned around, looked at me, then smiled.
"I'm making breakfast. How do you like your eggs?" he asked
"Scrambled please!"
"Alright, everything else is pretty much done, it should be ready in a few minutes."
"Ok," I said, and with that, Kai turned around and went in the kitchen to finish making our meal.
10 MINUTES LATER
KAI'S P.O.V.
I flipped the omelet I was currently making, then began to slowly stir the grits so that they wouldn't burn. (A/N: I know that their in Japan but seeing as I'm not to familiar with Japanese breakfasts I'll just make it be the same breakfast my dad makes me every Sunday, which is a typical American breakfast, seeing as I am an American). Once I saw that everything was done I put everything on plates to
take out to the dining room to serve for breakfast. There I saw Rei, waiting patiently, he was looking out the window at some birds who were fluttering about outside, watching them hungrily. Not realizing I was in the room Rei slowly licked his lips that's when I decided that it might be a good time to make my presents known.
"Ahem, breakfast is ready," I said as I watched Rei begin to blush at what he had just been previously doing, then all of a sudden I saw his eyes lit up at the prospect of food. I guess he was hungrier than I thought.
"You look hungry," I commented, making Rei blush once again.
"Yeah, well I tend to be rather hungry when I wake up."
"Really? I never noticed, you never acted like this before" Rei blushed again, and then looked down, mumbling something that I couldn't understand.
"I'm sorry what did you say?"
"I said normally I'd snack on the food while I'm preparing it."
"Oh" I said before laughing. Rei's eyes shot up immediately at the sound of my laughter.
"Why are you laughing?" he asked
"Nothing, it's just that I find it funny how easily you blush and get embarrassed over the smallest of things."
"But it's not proper etiquette!"
"Rei living in a dojo with three teenagers, Tyson, and Tyson's grandfather, kind of gets rid of any etiquette you have."
Rei laughed.
"Yeah, I guess your right, anyway lets eat, I'm starving!"
"You sound like Tyson" I commented.
"No its just that I'm hungry."
I watched Rei eat in silence, I enjoyed having Rei here it brought a certain air about the place, making it feel not so dreary. I looked outside and noticed that the rain had stopped. People were starting to go about their busy lives once again. That's when I thought of something.
"Hey Rei, what do you think about going out after this, and having some fun now that the rain has stopped."
REI'S P.O.V.
Did I just here right? Did Kai just ask me to go out and have 'fun' with him? (A/N: Hey for all you hentais out there you can stop drooling now I didn't mean it like that!). Sure he tends to act differently around me than he does the others, but to actually ask me to have fun with him. I wonder if this could be considered a date.
"Sure, what did you have in mind?" I said
To be continued...
A/N: All right, there's my update! Whoever comes up with the best idea of where Rei and Kai should go I'll use it in the next chapter, also I'll put a special thanks to that person towards the end! The next chapter should hopefully be up in a matter of weeks. I want to get it done by the time I go to Costa Rica, if not it will be right after I promise! I would like to thank those of you who reviewed my previous chapter so I wrote replies to all of your responses:
Purplelover: I would just like to say thank you for always lending me your support and for reading this story, even if you don't like Beyblade! lol
Alysei: Thank you for your review! You get a brownie (just because you can't see it doesn't mean its not there!)
Chi no hana: Thank you for always reviewing my chapters, it really means a lot to me!
Dark-night-sky: Thank you! Idea's did eventually come with a little help! Please continue to update!
Hawt-mama slytherin queen: You are so evil but in a good kind of way!
Lol, thank you for the review! And I know I'm an evil secret keeper but what can I say! Evil laugh muhahahaaha! lol
GuardianSuri: Thank you for your review! Just to let you know I love your stories too, they're so on my favorites list!
I would like to give a special thanks to Fr0ggy for giving me ideas and helping me out with this chapter. Snaps for Fr0ggy (you know when you snap your fingers instead of clapping, we do that in drama class).
Also to Zotz, I understand your concerns for my grammatical issues but seeing as you have no stories written I don't think that you have the right to judge so critically! Moreover, no capitalization is not a foreign term to me, I merely chose not to capitalize the characters while doing regular script, because I didn't feel like it! Have a nice day!-Hoshicat
(A/N: Again thank you all and please review! It makes my day! Send in any ideas and I will be happy to incorporate them! In addition, I know this chapter was somewhat slow but I am trying to get to the more romantic parts of the story!)
Love ya all, Hoshicat
