Me: Gosh, I just got back from a camp and I'm aching!

Kai: So?

Me: (glares at him) Still won't admit your undying love for Sora?

Kai: What love? (acts innocent.)

Me: Oh, Tyson's back. (Tyson is all bandaged up.)

Kai: Hahaha. Tyson!

Tyson: What?

Kai: This! (knocks Tyson out with a bat.)

Me: What the-

Chapter 6- Feelings?

Kai's POV

It's the Russian beyblade competition. I looked over at our opponent's side. Tala and Bryan. " Kai, who's your partner?" Tala asked. I nodded towards Sora.

"A girl? Seriously?" He said raising an eyebrow. "Lowered your standards?

Lorelei's POV

Oh no. That guy had something coming. Sora hates sexist guys. The last sexist guy we met, he ended up in the hospital with a broken leg and two black eyes. He was unconscious for a week.

Sora's POV

I clenched my fists and stared angrily at the redhead. "Don't let him get to you." Kai murmured. I relaxed a bit.

"I haven't lowered my standards, Tala. Wait till she finishes you off." Kai called back at him.

"Now your team always has a wimpy girl. It was the stupid fan girl, Hilary and now?" I saw Kai and Tyson tense up when the name Hilary was mentioned.

"Beyblade match number 1! Tala and Bryan against Kai and Sora!" Jazzman announced.

"3-2-1…let it rip!"

"Guardian Driger!" I yelled and it attacked Tala's blade.

"Walborg!" Tala screamed and Walborg defended itself.

"G. Driger! Show him we're NOT a wimpy girl!" I commanded. G. Driger zoomed to Walborg and started attacking aggressively.

"Ha! Is that all you've got?" Tala taunted. But I saw a flicker of fear in his eyes. "You are a wimpy girl! Walborg! Final attack!" Walborg zipped toward to G. Driger but G. Driger simply dodged it.

"Oh yeah? I think you're the one who's helpless now!" I cheered. "You've got no power now! G. Driger! Heavenly Flame!" G. Driger glowed and slammed Walborg out of the dish.

"NOOOOO!" Tala screeched in protest.

"Oh YEEEAAAHHH!" I retorted jubilantly. At the corner of my eye, I saw Kai smirk as Dranzer defeated Bryan. Later on in the evening, we let ourselves in Kai and Ray's room.

"That competition really wore me out." Max gasped as he collapsed on the couch.

"Where's Kai?" I asked, looking around for the team captain.

"Balcony." Ray answered while handing out drinks. I opened the glass door and saw Kai leaning on the railings.

Kai's POV

I remembered that afternoon. I looked at Sora. Her strong spirit, victorious smile, bond with her bitbeast and determined look in her eyes all enchanted me…

/Ah ha. You like her…/

Whatever. But I'm a team captain! I can't date a teammate!

/ Since when did you listen to that? Hilary was a teammate too! And what happened/

Hn.

/ It's like saying you can't date a client. It's ridicules/

"Kai?" Sora's voice came behind me.

"Yeah?"

"You okay?"

"Yeah."

"Okay…" I heard her head back in the room.

/ Say something! Ask her out/

"Sora." I said.

"Yeah?"

"Um…dinner sometime?" Don't give me the you're-team-captain-so-I-can't-date-you crap, please. I begged silently.

"You…mean it?" She asked after a moment's pause. I relaxed a bit.

"Yeah."

"Ok." She smiled gently.

"Sunday, 7?"

"Cool." She re-entered the suite. I let out a sigh of relief and followed her.

"Tomorrow, practice at 8." I ordered.

"Already?" Tyson groaned.

"Got a problem?"

"No. No." Tyson said hurriedly.

Lorelei's POV

The next day, I knocked on Sora's door. She came out, looking pale and tired. "You okay?"

"Not so good."

"Back to bed." I shoved her back in.

"Practice!" She protested.

"No! No excuse!" I slammed the door shut and sprinted downstairs.

"Chief! Sora's sick!" I practically yelled when I bumped into him and Kai.

"Lets go!" We stumbled into Tyson, Max and Ray while running back to the suite.

"Hey." I smiled goofily when I came face-to-face with Ray. Snap out of it! I scolded myself.

"Lorelei? Remember Sora? Who's sick?" Kenny prompted.

"Oh yeah." I blushed and sped-walked to the suite.

/ You're hopeless. / Larrah chided.

Me?

/ No. Britney Spears. Who else/

What do you expect?

/ Make your move/

Guys are supposed to make the first move!

/ So your THAT type. / I unlocked the door to my suite and Kai nearly, nearly I say, dashed in.

Kai's POV

I knocked Sora's bedroom door urgently. No answer. I tried the door. Unlocked. I went in and she was sleeping soundly. DAMN! I felt a hot feeling rushing in my veins. She looked so angelic. "Supervise the idiots' training." I ordered Kenny, looking at the rest. "Lorelei, you're excused."

"You?"

"Getting something." I headed out.

Lorelei's POV

I sighed and glanced at the clock. The others are training and Sora's still sleeping. The bell rang and I opened the door. Kai stood at the doorway and he held out a small white bag of stuff. "Medicine. Instructions written. Take care of her." Then he left.

"Who was that?" Sora mumbled as she came out, rubbing her head.

"Our cold, hard captain."

"I feel like crap." She moaned as she fell onto the couch.

Kenny's POV

"Concentrate, Kai!" I urged. Kai was not up to his usual towering standards.

"I am!" He growled.

"ARGH! That's it!" He yelled and Dranzer returned to his hand.

"Hey Kai!" Tyson called after him.

"Practice cancelled!" He yelled back.

"Yahoo!" Tyson cheered.

Kai's POV

/ You care about her…that's why you didn't blade well…/

Hn.

/ Admit it/ I ignored her voice and rang Sora's bell. Lorelei greeted me.

"She's better?"

"Yup. C'mon in!"

Sora's POV

I glanced down at the amber bracelet on my wrist and the familiar tingle spread throughout my body.

/ You're hooked, hm/

Shush.

"Sora!" Lorelei knocked on the door. "Visitor!"

"IN!" I yelled. Lorelei came in with Kai. I gulped.

"I'll be outside." Lorelei smirked and sailed out of the room.

"Hey." I greeted. He certainly was more uncomfortable than me. "How's practice?"

"Cancelled." He muttered.

"Oh." Silence prevailed.

"Hey, Sora!" Tyson burst in. "Oh." He squeaked when he saw Kai. "I'll come in later." He exited and closed the door.

Lorelei's POV

The bell rang again and I pulled the door open. "Hey!" Tyson bubbled and came in. "How's Sora?" Without waiting for an answer, he headed for her room.

"Tyson! She has a GUEST!" I tried to stop him from entering but he went in. And for a moment, he came out.

"You didn't tell me HE was in there!" He demanded.

"I TRIED!" I smirked. "You didn't listen."

Kai's POV

Sora looked down, fiddling with the bracelet I gave her. "Thanks for the medicine." She said quietly.

"Hn."

/ Must I teach you on what to say/

Don't need to.

/ I don't mind…You OBVIOUSLY need it…/

"See you later." I went for the door.

/ Smooth…Real smooth…/

What? You want me to confess my feelings for her?

/ Hey…that sounds good…/

We've been out with each other only ONCE!

/ Pathetic isn't it/

I'll do it one day.

/ SURE…when shehas someone else…/

End of Chapter 6.

Me: I don't believe it! I'm losing my touch! It isn't funny anymore!

Max: Erm…eh…

Me: See?

Ray: Max knows nuts and bolts.

Me: True.

Sora: It's okay…At least I get to skip practice…

Me: Oh yes! Juicy details on WHY Hilary is gone and why-

Kai and Tyson: We are pissed!

Me: Ok…I would like maybe 36 reviews till I post the next chapter? That'll be nice.

Max: R&R.
