Chapter 7 - Kaido's Point of View
I kept thinking of the night that had left Ty barely able to move for a few hours. He had told me everything that had happened and I really want to just beat the ever living daylights out of the kids. If only I could get him to tell me what they looked liked. I knew that he didn't want to talk about it yet so I left it alone for a few days, but I couldn't stop thinking about it. I finally stepped up to Ty and sat him down in our secret spot where we met everyday before and sometimes after practice.
"Tell me what they looked like." I told him gently taking his hand into mine. I knew that no one would think of looking here for us so I could do as I pleased.
Ty glanced down at the ground and sighed before leaning against me and resting his head on my chest. I ran a hand through his hair and allowed him a little time to think before answering. I could feel his heart beat in his chest and I pulled him closer. I could feel him shiver a little.
"It's okay. I won't let anyone hurt you any more. Just tell me." I whispered gently continuing to stroke his hair. I wait a little longer and finally he began to speak.
"I couldn't see them really well. It was dark and they snuck up on me from behind. But I did get a look at one of them. He was a little taller then Inui and he had light hair. I'm not sure what color though." Ty gripped my shirt in one hand. "Please don't do anything Kaido. It's over with. I don't want you to get hurt."
I didn't really listen to his pleading. I wanted to take care of the people that hurt him in anyway I could. I just couldn't let Ty know. I knew that he would disapprove, but I went searching anyway. I had a few run ins with a couple of street gangs around the area that would do anything for money and they knew never to mess with me.
It took me a few tries to find the right gang that had hurt Ty, but I had finally succeeded. It wasn't until I had their little leader pinned against the wall that they would actually confess to what they had done and when they had admitted I did everything in my power to stop myself from beating their leader into the cement wall behind him. My grip tightened and I began to speak.
"If I find out that any of you touch Ty again I swear that you'll wish you were born." I hissed at him. My grip was so tight that I could tell I was cutting off his breathing, but I really didn't care. I didn't let go until I knew that he really need to breath. They had never said one to me, but I could tell that I had scared the shit out of them.
I stepped back and stared them down. They took this opportunity to turn tail and run as fast as they could. I smirked as they ran then turned and made my way to Ty's house. I wanted to tell him that he was safe now and didn't have to worry about getting hurt again.
"Hey, Kaido." Ty waved to me and smiled.
He was sitting on his porch with his mother, Ryoma and Momoshiro. I walked up the front steps and stopped in front of him. He got up with a curious look on his face as if he knew I had something I wanted to talk to him about. Ty quickly excused himself and said that I need to speak with him for a minute. He then lead me into the house and to the living room.
"Something wrong, Kaido?" He asked taking a seat on the couch. I shook my head.
"No. I just wanted to tell you that You won't get hurt ever again. I took care of the people that hurt you." I replied taking his hand.
I could tell in his eyes that he was happy and yet upset at me at the same time.
"You didn't have to do that. You could have gotten hurt yourself." Then he smiled. "But thank you for that. I know that you'll be there to protect me. And that makes me happy."
We rejoined the others on the porch and Ryoma and Ty decided that the four of us should go to the movies. I didn't say anything, but I did shrug. Momoshiro seemed to groan slightly, but followed behind Ryoma anyway. Once out of sight of Ty's house we began to talk.
"Think of it as a double date!" Ty said with a giggle. I blinked slightly in surprise and looked at Ryoma and Momoshiro.
"Are you saying that those two are dating?" I asked looking back at Ty. He nodded.
"Don't you dare tell anyone about it though." Momoshiro said quickly to me. Then his eyes seemed to light up.
"If this is supposed to be a double does that mean you two are dating also?" He asked Ty.
"Yeah, but if you tell anyone we'll have to tell people too." He replied with a sly smirk on his face. I reached out and caught his hand in mine. There was no one around as it was so I didn't mind holding his hand. His skin was smooth and I liked the feel of him. I looked over at the other two and noticed that they weren't as bold as I was. This made me smirk to myself.
"What are you smiling at, Kaido?" Ty asked looking up at me. I looked down.
"Nothing. Just thinking I guess." I replied.
"You do that a lot don't you?"
"I guess I do."
We came to the mall and found that even here wasn't as packed with people as one would have expected. The people seemed to be too busy doing their own thing to even take any notice to others around them. That is until they nearly crashed into some one.
"What movie are we going to see?" Momoshiro asked looking at the list.
We all looked the list over and decided on a newer movie who's name I can't seem to remember right off hand. Ryoma and Ty got the snacks leaving me and Momoshiro to try and get along. As if that would ever happen. Ty had warned me that if I caused trouble then he wouldn't be too happy with me. I didn't want to see him mad at me so I didn't say anything to Momoshiro. That is until he started to talk to me.
"How long have you two been going out?"
I hissed a little, but answered anyway.
"Don't know. A few weeks maybe. How 'bout you and Ryoma?" I replied.
"I don't know either. A few days after he came back to Japan I suppose."
I kept my eyes on the door, waiting for the two to get back. I never thought that Momoshiro and I would actually be having a some what civil conversation. Then again that guy never really ceased to amaze me. I smirked when I saw Ryoma's hat and Ty's blonde hair in the crowd that was now filing through the door. They walked as quickly as they could and handed us the snacks and drinks. Ty sat next to Ryoma on one side while Momoshiro sat on the other side of Ryoma. I sat next to Ty. We were sitting in the back row so I put my arm around Ty once the lights went down and the movie started.
The movie didn't interest me all that much so for most of the time I ended up just zoning out. Pretty soon it was over and Ty was moving to get up. I dropped my arm quickly and got to my feet. We made our way out of the theater and decided to go get something to eat. Ty wanted some American food so we settled on a place that sold food of almost every culture. We ordered our food and drinks and I stared at Ty.
"Say something in English." I muttered. I wanted to see what he sounded like without the Japanese accent that sounded only slightly off to me. It was how I knew that he wasn't raised in Japan. He smiled at me and took a sip of his soda.
"What do you want me to say?" He asked.
I shrugged.
"Beats me. Say anything." I replied.
He looked at Ryoma and I could tell that he was smiling. Before I knew it the two of them had started having a conversation in English. Some of it I could understand, but other parts were kind of hard for me. I glanced a Momoshiro. All he could do was shrug and watch them talk. Ty looked up at me with a slight smirk. I smirked back.
"You have a cute English voice." I whispered into his ear. He smiled and I could see his cheeks flush a little. That made him look even cuter.
"So, tell me what America was like." I said straightening up.
"What do you want to know?" He asked taking another sip of his drink. I thought for a minute.
"Well... What is it like over there? Is it the same as here?" He shook his head a little.
"Some cities here have to go to school Saturday and only get Sunday off. In America we get the whole weekend off. Uhm... And there are many cultures and stuff in America. Plus the school system is different. Like in middle school we don't call the grades sophomores or juniors. That's only in high school."
I nodded a little and sat back.
"I'd like to visit America some day." Momoshiro said breaking into my thoughts. I growled at him. He gave me a slightly confused look, but just shrugged it off and continued to talk.
"It would fun. Don't you think, Kaido?"
I hissed and crossed my arms in front of my chest.
"Sure... Whatever." I muttered.
Ty smiled at me and got up. He stretched a little as if to relieve some sort of arm ache or something. I looked at the time and saw that it was still pretty early and I kind of didn't want to go home yet. I wanted to spend more time with Ty. I didn't even care that Ryoma and Momoshiro were with us. There company didn't bother me as much as I thought it would.
"Come on. Let's go look around the mall."
I got up and followed him. Ryoma and Momoshiro weren't too far behind.
Ty's Point of View
The day was going great. I was able to spend a lot of time with Kaido and he seemed to be happy when he was around me. I was glad that Momoshiro was behaving himself. I knew that him and Kaido didn't really like each other that much. Kaido seemed to be more comfortable about our relationship now then I thought he was before. It surprised me. I never really thought of Kaido as being some one that would go out with any one. Plus time seemed to just stand still when I was with him. I was always really happy when he was around.
After dinner I decided that it was still too early to head home so we wandered around the mall a little. The first place that we stopped was the arcade. Momoshiro wanted to stop here. He's like a kid in a candy store sometimes.
It took me a few minutes to convince Kaido to play some games with me, but in the end I succeeded. I even got him to watch me play DDR. That was fun, but he was stubborn and wouldn't try. I couldn't blame him either. I didn't really see him as much of a dancing person anyway. Ryoma and Momoshiro even tried it out. They went against each other and Ryoma ended up winning. I almost fell over laughing when Momoshiro nearly fell off the thing. Even Kaido nearly burst out laughing at him. I could tell because he had to cover his mouth and turn away so that I wouldn't see.
Momoshiro told us not to laugh at him. I guess he was just so into the game that he didn't even notice his shoelace was untied. That was how he tripped.
"Hey. We can't be blamed for you clumsiness." Ryoma said with a smirk.
Momoshiro frowned and looked like he was about to pout.
"It wasn't my fault. I could have sworn that my shoelaces were tied. They were when we left the movies." Momoshiro was trying to defend himself.
"They could have come untied you, Nimrod." Kaido retaliated. I giggled a little and shook my head.
"Let's leave him alone guys. We still got other places to go. Come on. I wanna go see if there are any good books in the stores." I said and headed out.
I could hear them still arguing as I walked away. Then I heard them hurrying to catch up to me. They made me laugh sometimes. Although they really needed to stop their arguing some times. I really didn't want them to ruin the night.
We stopped in at a bookstore and Ryoma and Momoshiro went looking for tennis magazines. I, on the other hand, wanted something a little longer to read. Kaido stayed near me and I could tell that he didn't read that much. I even asked him if he wanted me to get him something, but he just shook his head and kind of wandered off a little. He came back after a few minutes. I didn't really notice though. I was sitting on the floor reading.
Kaido sat down next to me and read over my shoulder. That was how I noticed he was there. I jumped in surprise and looked over at him.
"Did I surprise you?" He asked.
"No. You just surprised me." I said handing him the book. "Why don't you try to read something. Books are really good."
He smiled, took the book and started to flip through it. I could see that he was reading it because he would pause on a certain page then turn it after a few seconds.
"Well?" I asked when he handed the book back to me.
"I guess I can try to find something that would interest me." He replied.
The book was store was near empty with an exception of Ryoma, Momoshiro, and two other people besides us. Kaido rested his head on my shoulder and continued to read over my shoulder. His arms wrapped around my waist as he moved a little closer to me. I could feel his breath on my neck and it made me shiver a little. I leaned back on him and allowed him a better view of what I was reading.
We sat on the floor for maybe ten minutes when Ryoma came up and told us that he was bored and wanted to go do something else. It took us a few minutes more to find Momoshiro hiding in a corner reading a tennis magazine. Kaido rolled his eyes and I paid for both the book and magazine to keep Momo happy.
We wandered the mall for a few minutes when I spotted a mini golf place. I dragged them into it and we started a game. It ended up being Ryoma and Momoshiro against Kaido and me. It seemed that no one was really good at it so it came out to be a tie in the end.
It made me laugh though when Kaido accused Momoshiro of cheating. They would have gone at it if Ryoma and I hadn't stepped in to stop them. We continued the game until we finally got to the last hole. I thought that Momo and Kaido were out for each other and were ready to fight so we put our clubs away and left right after the last hole.
I looked at the time and sighed a little. It was now getting late and it was time to get home. We walked out of the mall and made our way back towards our homes. Ryoma and Momoshiro ended up heading off in a different direction then Kaido and me. I figured they were going to Momo's house. I looked up at Kaido and frowned a little.
"Something wrong?" Kaido asked putting an arm around my shoulder.
"I don't wanna go home alone. Can you stay the night at my place again?" I replied looking down at the ground.
"Yeah. I'll stay the night at your place." He ran a hand through my hair and pulled me closer to him.
We got back to my house and I told my mother what was going on. She didn't object as usual. I lead Kaido up to my room and sat down on my bed. It was still to early to go to bed so instead we settled into the book that I had bought at the mall.
Kaido was leaned against my pillows and pulled me over to him so my back was against his chest. I opened the book and held it up so that we could both see it. He wrapped his arms around my waist again and rested his chin on my shoulder.
We read until my mom called up to us that we had ice cream and was wondering if we wanted some. I set the book down and got to my feet.
"I'll get us some, okay?" I said stepping out of my room. I looked back and saw him sitting there with a slight smirk on his face. Why he always smirked like that at me was beyond me.
I walked downstairs and grabbed the two bowls that my mother had prepared. I got back upstairs and handed one bowl to Kaido. We ate as quickly as we could and I put the bowls back downstairs.
Once back upstairs for the third time that night I got back on the bed and in the same comfortable position that I had been in when my mom called me. I grabbed the book again and we started reading again.
By the time we got ready for bed it was already almost one in the morning. I shut the book and put it on my night stand.
"We can finish it later, 'kay?"
He nodded and I slipped off him. We both changed quickly and I crawled into my bed. Kaido looked at me with a smile and slipped into bed next to me. I curled up to him and closed my eyes getting ready for sleep. He was warm and I could hear his heart beat when I rested my head on his chest. I felt him run his hand through my hair once and come to rest on my back as he held me. I gave me a very safe and secure feeling. I slowly starting to fall asleep with all the days events running through my head.
