.Chapter 35: Intuitions and departures.
~Dedicated To Linvn for being the 200th reviewer.
Tyson's head was spinning as he lied on his new bed. Preparations were going on and Hilary still didn't come yet. He sighed for the hundredth time in the day and closed his eyes tightly. Pain drifted through his head and he was clearly messed. Hilary hasn't spoken to him since then. On normal terms, she would at least text him once in the day, but no nothing,
Everything seemed dull and actually monotonous, he just wished if he could go to a place away from all these people who would stop for once bugging him with what he wanted to do and allow him to live without worries. He clung raspily on his blue hair and breathed in.
There was a knock on the door. Now, who is it?
"Come in," he said sardonically,
"Tyson, Gramps is calling you and also…Hilary's down," Max said softly
Tyson swiveled out of his bed with wide eyes, "I'm coming down in a minute," he said as he grabbed his precious phone and wore his slippers and trotted down.
Wait a second. When did Hilary arrived? I thought she was coming tonight or tomorrow. And...oh!
He suddenly realized that he had his room locked since morning and he hasn't stepped out till now, so maybe all of them had thought that he was tired and sleeping the entire time!
Everyone stood like a gathering, downstairs, waiting as if for an important discussion to begin and for him.
"What's going on?" Tyson asked when Kai and Ray were giving him the deathliest glares they could. Hilary stood perturbed and stared at Tyson.
"Is that true that you asked Hilary?" Gramps asked, he was the only one seated on an armchair.
Tyson looked at Hilary who seemed to be influenced by his stare and he gave that unbelievable look to her, totally bewildered.
"Yes, I did," Tyson said clearly, a little determined.
"Why?" Kai shot,
"Huh?" Tyson looked at him, "Why not?" Tyson shrugged violently,
"Hilary isn't interested, so no need to force her," Kai said coldly,
"I didn't force her, kindly note," Tyson said with a nerve appearing on his face,
"He didn't," Hilary said, "Tyson, believe me, I'm not here to create a drama on your birthday.I-"
"Oh I see. That's why we kinda have a gathering of accusations stumbling to shoot me here," Tyson said loudly in sarcasm,
"I told this to Grandpa and they heard it," Hilary mentioned and gave a sigh,
"Stay away from her. Don't perturb more people," Kai said dangerously,
"Excuse me?" Tyson shook his head,
"Don't fight!" Gramps shouted,
"Hilary isn't someone's possession, and I'm not interested in her like you seem so apparently," Tyson said cruelly with a smile. Hilary's eyes widened and she held Tyson's shirt from back, "Stop," she whispered,
"I'll stop. Since Ryan's gone, someone's too high," Tyson whispered back, "And it's not me, Hilary sweetheart," Tyson said in a cruel dangerous tone,
Hilary sighed frantically. "I know,"
"Everyone, get to the preparations, NOW!" Grandpa ordered. Tyson moved away rudely, Hilary's grasp on his shirt slipping rashly.
Everyone moved on their ways. Ray got busy giving meals to Grandpa, while Daichi just returned from the store. Kai reluctantly blew the balloons and flung them for Max to decorate. Tyson ordered the cake and Max chose it.
...
"Tyson, I need to talk to you," Hilary said as he stood in his balcony placing a hand on the side pole.
"Hilary, leave," Tyson said clearly not in his best moods,
"I'm not leaving, you hear me," Hilary said demandingly,
Tyson didn't answer and his back faced her. She went to stand beside him, "Trust me, I just told Grandpa-" Tyson clapped his hands in front of her, "Please leave," he sarcastically begged,
"Fine, I will leave. I am keeping your present on your desk, take it if you wish or else dump it in dust piles. I'm leaving for my home." Hilary said and turned wildly to express her anger,
"Hilary wait," Tyson said suddenly, "I'm sorry,"
She stopped and gave a pitiful look to him, "Look Tyson, it wasn't me who told Grandpa. Grandpa asked me first and so I couldn't lie to him. Others might have overheard or eavesdropped, don't know," she said,
"He guessed, it means," Tyson laughed sarcastically,
"Y-yeah." Tyson walked to her and held her hands, "Don't marry me and I won't marry anyone," he said darkly,
"Why?" she asked literally scared,
"Because I will not cheat that bitch like she accused me that day," he left her hands softly and breathed in, "I wish if someone could tell her through what the hell of rides I've been through these years,"
"I still wonder why she accused you, hell you aren't a traitor," Hilary was slightly furious,
"What actually happened that day?" Tyson asked mundanely,
"Nothing." Hilary sighed. Her eyes shot out as a sudden thought came to her mind, "Wait, something did happened that day," Hilary said cautiously, an intuition forming,
"What?"
"Did she saw us in that dark hotel room?" Hilary and Tyson said in unison with spooked up feelings,

"Look, its fine. I don't think you will be happy with Tyson, leave him. Forget about it. You can't start the new chapter of your life unless you keep re-reading the old ones," Julia patted as Ashlene wept,
"I'm sorry Raul, you too," Julia looked at him, "I've been so strict to you that you never confided anything in me. I'm sorry,"
Raul looked away in slight disgust and disappointment,
"Forget him, Ash. Why can't you?" Raul asked clearly agitated,
"Not so easy," Ashlene said in gulps,
Do you still think of me? baby baby
Cause you on my mind is driving me crazy, crazy
Are you finally over me, you can tell me the truth
Or do you still love me the way I still love you
"Mom, why are you crying?'' Ellie peeped through the door,
"Go out, mom's little ill," Raul shot and pointed her to leave. Nobody minded, the girl left.
"Can we just forget this?" Julia asked softly,
"Yeah, right," Ashlene went to her room abruptly.
Julia sighed, "Why did you say her?" Julia asked,
"Probably I made the biggest mistake," Raul sighed,
"Hmm… I'm so tired of her sometimes," Julia mentioned, regretting that those words shouldn't have escaped her mouth.
"She's so emotional at times- actually- overemotional," Raul mentioned,
"Leave her, she will be fine on her own," Julia said as she went to her room.

"So, what present is there in this pack, Hils?" Tyson attempted to open the wrapper of the gift box she'd brought for him.
"HEY!" Hilary, who was combing her hair swiveled and ran towards him and snatched the gift box, "Open it after the cake it cut, Tyson!" She demanded.
Tyson nervously smiled, his lips slightly shivering at her pitch, "Okay Hilary," he stuttered.
Hilary continued combing her hair, looking into the mirror, while Tyson sighed and took his phone casually to pass his time.
A sudden thought came to him, "Um, Hilary?" He called out carefully.
"Yes?" She turned to see him lying on the bed. He got up and examined her, "Did Kai said you anything?" He asked.
"About what?" Hilary rose her brow.
"No, I-I thought he kinda liked you. So..." Tyson stopped, waiting for a response.
"Its nothing," Hilary said calmly staring at him and then turning.
"So, you're not saying anything, huh?" Tyson smirked.
Hilary annoyingly walked towards him and stood in front of him, "What's that supposed to mean?" She twisted ger lips, "You know I and Ryan-" she stopped and Tyson got it.
"Still," he urged calmly,
Hilary sighed and looked down at her feet, her hands relaxing on her sides, relieving the tense, "Look Tyson, you don't know this..." she said and a strange fear overtook her and she blinked unsurely.
"Hils, what is it?" Tyson stood and held her hand, assuring that she can speak what she's holding in.
"I promised Kai I wouldn't say this to anyone," Hilary said carefully, her voice low from spirits, "Only Max knew..."
Tyson waited, giving her time to continue, he squeezed her hand in his hold and nodded.
"Before I went to Florida... After Kai's last battle with Brooklyn, I was with him. He wasn't well and I, as at least as a 1part of team took care of him." She stopped, "I had no idea I was beginning to like him. In some way, I was feeling attached to him and I felt whole lot sympathetic for him. I thought that it was just because he was different from you people and a loner, I was developing slight feelings for him," Hilary's heart escaped an unhealthy beat. She kept a hand softly on her chest.
"So... was that true that you both.."
"Yes, that's true." Hilary stated, "Max somehow knew it but Kai had told me to ignore him."
"Max guessed it; you know." Tyson laughed mundanely.
"Ryan knew it...?" Tyson asked gently.
"No." Hilary answered, "I considered that as an misfortune incident and I want to forget it, "
"Then why... what happened between you two?" Tyson asked, "Kai isn't like someone who would cheat on love, I really don't think so."
"Everything was perfect, Tyson. He really loved me and still does, but I think fate has something else planned. He didn't want me to go to Florida. I didn't want to either but I summoned the courage because my future depended on it and my parents were trying hard to afford me to send," she said with a grieved breath, "We had little fights over that and he tried so many times explaining me not to leave him, but... I left him and he didn't talk to me. He didn't meet me, I couldn't feel fine being around him and so badly ignored. So I felt the tension between us, drifting us apart. It broke me but I'd to leave. A month passed, no calls, no messages, no replies, I felt myself depressed sometimes. Margot and Delia knows nothing. Slowly, a feeling of hatred started in me for him, feeling like I was simply used by him...maybe it's not true. A few months passed and to replace my broken love, Ryan came and that's how everything changed,"
"Oh!" Tyson couldn't find anything better to say, "I didn't know any of it." Tyson blinked astonished.
"Because this relationship was a secret and a promise, just how naive we're at that time, we definitely wanted to hide this. Teen feelings. Haha, "
"Oh, yeah," Tyson sighed, still thinking.
"You know Tyson, that hatred multiplied through the years, I just hated him. And after a few years, he probably realized that he was wrong and he tried talking to me, trying to revive everything, but it's too late now. Kai was the first person here to whom I dared to admit I was in love with Ryan when Ryan once visited you guys, remember?"
Of course, Tyson remembered that day when Hilary introduced Ryan to them and it was a good meeting. It was in year 2018 tournament time.
"So... what you think now?" Tyson asked, "You really don't wanna go back to him? He's still waiting." Tyson asked.
"I don't care. Those feelings have died long back. My heart still belong to Ryan and nothing and no one can change it. " Hilary said in anger and pain before rising up and darting out of the room before more questions would be shot at her.
Everything made sense now: her furious rage and reaction when he proposed her, why she didn't liked Kai to be around her. That just made her remember her past which didn't end good with him.
...
...
A month passed… Everything changed or probably nothing changed. On his last birthday, after every one gave him his presents and hung late in the party, there was a big announcement.
Kai, Ray and Max left. They left his home.
"We are not staying here anymore. Championships are coming. You are on your own ways and we on our own." Ray said in the early dawn,
Hilary and Tyson were shocked and they were all in ears.
"I and Max are pairing up for the Championships, so we are leaving too," Daichi said. He clearly seemed brainwashed,
"Daichi…you too are leaving me?" Tyson asked incredulously.
"Yeah. Max asked me some time back and I think I will get along with him fine." Daichi said,
"Tyson, I'm sorry but I've to leave. We are friends but I want to fight for the title this year. I will be staying at mom's place. I've talked to her." Max mentioned. Hilary noted that Max's tone was a little perturbed, like he wanted to say something. "Rick left the team, so I'll be with Daichi,"
"Goodbye, I won't come back till the battle is over, you've to take care of Gramps on your own," Kai said in a formal smile, "I swear I will miss Grandpa, but probably this is the best that I'm leaving,"
"Why is it that, I'm left alone?" Tyson asked in a shuddered tone, too fallen down,
"Because you are our rival after friend," Ray said, "We don't mean to hurt you Tyson but this separation has now become necessary after we've waited for so many years,"
"Guys, who will Tyson tag team with! Ever thought about it!" Hilary shot,
"He will think himself Hilary," Kai said looking at her, "You don't worry," Hilary seethed,
"You better find someone," Ray said with a shrug,
Kai pulled out their suitcases in the hall and everyone took their respective ones,
"You guys are leaving him, you want to break him," Hilary said almost shaking in pity,
"No we don't, you're taking it wrong. I wanna battle you, and that's the only reason I'm leaving you, because clearly, from past so many years, the pattern of tournaments never allowed me to do that," Kai said as he gave a last glance on his shoulder and left. Others followed him. Max still looked as if there was something important he wanted to say but Ray just dragged him along.
There was a deadly silence for few minutes. The duo didn't exchange any words. Hilary was puzzled and speechless, she was feeling very angry and confused at the same time
Tyson saw that look and he smiled brokenly. "Leave Hilary," Tyson said her after sometime,
"What the hell do you do that everyone leaves you!" Hilary shot impulsively,
"I'm too good. That's my fault." Tyson said flatly with sarcasm,
"I didn't leave you yet. What's wrong with that?" Hilary held him by his collar and shot,
"Because you don't envy me," He said with a chuckle on his fragile defeated face,
"Why did Ashlene leave you? Why your Amelia left you who was so much better than you?" She asked jittery and suppressing her outburst,
"Because she didn't believe in me," He said lowly,
Hilary left him and blinked, "You think she saw us that day?" Hilary asked frantically,
"Might be, she didn't say me anything, just accused me," Tyson said, his tone stuttering,
"We should tell her that it was a mistake," Hilary tried,
"But I don't think that's true. I really don't think she left me because she saw us." He said with a laugh, "Might be she was so tired of me,"
"No…" Hilary was in deep retrospection. Somehow Hilary was feeling and had an intuition that it was that day why she Ashlene left him because she might have seen them.
"Yeah, the way she looked me that day, she clearly looked like she knew she was wrong," Tyson said,
"You met her?" Hilary asked,
"When I was leaving for New York from Japan, I'd cold so I went to her hospital and we saw each other quite closely," Tyson mentioned,
"Then?"
"Doctor called me in, she left on her way. Seems like she became doctor after all, Dr. Ashlene Reynolds," Tyson laughed,
Just the other day, I seen you
You caught me for a little while
You told me you were going just fine well
It was good to see you smile (good to see you smile)
Memories running through my head
Feelings coming back oh yeah
Yeah it hurts again
You're happy with someone else
"We used to be so good friends," Hilary said, "I just wished she wouldn't have done that,"
"Leave it. You go, or else you'll miss your flight." Tyson suggested. Hilary nodded and bought her suite downstairs,
"When I'm away, take care of Gramps and don't answer him back," Hilary advised,
Tyson smiled and nodded. Hilary hugged him, "Don't get me wrong that I rejected you. I'm just trying to be loyal with Ryan after I couldn't save him," Hilary mumbled,
"It wasn't your fault, know that," Tyson said pulling away from the hug to face her.
"You know what Tyson, even Nyhan accused me for that." Hilary's eyes felt the guilt.
"He's not right." Tyson said jadedly with sigh.
"Might be, I should had stayed here...Might be I should have listened Kai and not leave him. In that way, I wouldn't had met Ryan, at least wouldn't have been the cause of his death. I should have stayed here and kept the blade breakers glued and one. So that, so that, they never split and had distances with each other. I shouldn't have left you all, Tyson. I shouldn't had," Hilary said in deep tone.
"It's NOT your fault that the team is separating. It happened even when you're there in 3rd year of Championship. Don't blame yourself. " Tyson said softly, "And why are YOU regretting? Is it Ryan or ... Kai?"
Hilary looked at him, still thinking fast, "I guess it's both of them." Hilary gave a nostalgic laugh.
"Hilary... don't mind, but honestly, you've to move on with someone in life and-"
"And it won't be Kai!" Hilary snapped.
"It have to him, Hils! He still loves you and you know it's TRUE and loyal"
"He hasn't been loyal with the team, how can I trust him-" Hilary shot,
"Don't mix your personal feelings with the team relationship. They are two HUGE different scenarios." Tyson warned, "Kai didn't move on. He could gave pursued with some any other girl, at least after you openly told him that you love Ryan. He didn't. He still was quiet. He didn't started any new relationship, we all know,"
"I know that, but everything is over between us, already! Long back!" Hilary uttered
"Over from your side, not his," Tyson nailed the point.
Hilary calmly gulped her annoyance now, "Tyson, why are you trying to send me back to him? He left you just few minutes ago crumbling you here alone!" Hilary retorted, "Isn't that enough for you stop telling me that I'd go back to him?"
"I'm not thinking about me or him. I'm thinking about YOU." Tyson said, "As a best friend. Even if he's my rival."
"TYSON STOP IT! PLEASE!" Hilary yelled. Tyson was instantly quiet. "YOU can't force me to marry you, you can't force me to go back to Kai. You just can't force me!" Hilary twisted her lips uneasily and sighed heavily.
"I'm not forcing... I didn't mean to. I'm sorry." Tyson mumbled guilty. He realized that he shouldn't have said all that to her. Probably what she felt couldn't be felt by him.
"I'm leaving." She gave him a abrupt brief final hug, "Don't think about ANYTHING too much now," Hilary said in a fine tone, almost returning normal.
"I'm fine," Tyson said and she smiled and he waved a hand to her before she left.

"Sorry, couldn't pick your call, I was a little busy," Ashlene said as she rested on the couch,
"Had so many patients today?" Julia asked,
"Yeah, I almost forgot to pick Ellie from school today,"
"Oh," Julia said, "What is she doing now by the way?"
"Might be sleeping,"
"Hmm, so, are you going to gym tonight?" Julia asked,
"Yeah, of course. Wanna join?" Ashlene asked. Julia shook her head no. Ever since her birthday, she joined gym and freed Raul from the daily walks they took. Raul was puzzled too about this sudden change but he tried ignoring. He joined gym too a bit later.
"Guess I should get my protein shake then, see you," Ashlene rose from the seat and walked to her room. Somehow she was tired after an impulsive jogging session with Zane. Her high pony swung as she opened the door and saw her daughter sleeping. She kept her protein shake aside and looked through the magazine pages she was reading a few days back,
"Increased cases of Lupus this year…" she read, "I wonder why people are getting prey of this disaster," she sighed,
"Oh, there is more to it, it's fifty percent among the young twenties," She hitched as she read it,
She put aside the magazine and shook her head. "It's better if I complete this work before evening," she looked at the heap of her washed clothes. "Well," she looked around and strode out
"Mischa, can you iron my clothes?" she asked,
"Sure, I will be in your room in few minutes," Mischa smiled. Ashlene was joyous. She thumped on her bed and smiled. "I'm done. Clothes will be done," she said to herself before she fell asleep.
….
"Where are you going?" Ellie asked as she bit the sandwich,
"Some work, Ell," Raul smiled,
"Uh," Ellie nodded. She looked cute in her school uniform as she waited for her mom to take her to school. "You're not a morning person,"
Raul shut the door as he left. Julia was still asleep,
"Mom! C'mon! What's taking you this long!" Ellie shouted as she waited,
"Coming!" Ashlene took her large purse, and they hurried out after locking the door and she drove her daughter to school.
"Ellie, make sure you stay away from that William," Ashlene said remembering that detail,
"He don't even tease me anymore, I am thinking I will play with Lily today," Ellie smiled,
"Huh?"
"We have games today," she smiled.
…
"Nurse, prepare the bed." Ashlene said as she checked the pulse of the patient,
"You're okay. Have you been sleeping late at nights?" she asked,
"Yeah, sorta," The patient said,
"Well, take these medicines and sleep plenty," Ashlene smiled.
A few minutes later when she was free, she took out her phone and browsed. She fell asleep somehow and woke only when Fred came to her cabin and shook her,
"Huh?" she woke, "Sorry, I slept,"
A huge man with black eyes and swarthy complexion stood in front of her, "Can I have your attention, Doc?" he asked in his large voice,
"S-sure," Ashlene gulped. Fred quickly moved out.

Hilary was feeling dizzy after a long tantrum that was prevailing in dojo and the sudden situations that had shown up. She felt arduous. Was she right in saying about her and Kai to Tyson? She sighed.
She was sitting in a cab heading to the airport, her possession being only a small suite. The traffic was huge and it was humid, even in the presence of scarce clouds. It should rain today.
Her eyes were drooping low and she was about to fall asleep when her eyes landed on someone in a car beside her, she veered from her fragile position. The amethyst orbs also met hers at the same time.
Kai?
The slate-haired blader gnawed and blinked before his lower lip hauled itself weirdly. "Hilary…" he said cursorily.
"What are you doing? Drive fast, it's getting late! Drive fast!" She shouted at the driver, keeping hateful eyes at the other person.
"Yes ma'am," the driver said,
"Wait, I need to talk to you." He said determined, knowing still that she wasn't going to listen him, "Please wait,"
"Are you crazy? I'm already getting late and I've no interest in any conversation with you," She shot fiercely.
"Driver, stop the car!" Kai ordered as the cars picked their normal speeds after the traffic was beginning to clear.
"Don't stop," Hilary commanded,
"Listen, we have to talk. Please," Kai curled his lips.
"Oh yeah?" she squealed. Kai was concentering both on driving and their present argument. After much squabbling, she agreed.
The cab stopped in the front of a mall and Kai parked his car before they took her suite and dumped in his car and made their way to the backside of the mall, which was almost lonely.
Hilary impassively stood, her fingers folded unruly and her composure swift and infirm to run after this conversation is done.
A few trees lined the side, at which they were standing, rest of the ground with finely build road to drive for the workers. The late pinnate compound leaves gave the shade needed.
"What is that you want to say?" She stated, her voice seeming fatigued physically, "Be quick,"
"Gosh, you're acting like my manager now," Kai smirked.
Hilary gave a sharp look to him. "I know we are not talking, I know I ended everything long back and it was me who started the distances, but at least I can get to explain why? Can't I?"
"I'm not interested now," Hilary said,
"But I'm,"
"Say then," Hilary folded her arms across her abdomen softly,
"I didn't mean to do that. I'm sorry." He stated simply, looking regretful, "It was my fault. I'd have let you go, but I behaved selfish. Sorry."
"You realize this? Really?" She asked.
"I do... I realized it at your first trip to Japan itself but it was too late. You were already infatuated with Ryan. I was helpless and heartbroken." Kai said remembering it with sadness.
"I wasn't infatuated. It was another love, kindly agree." Venom dropped in her voice. "And you? You were heartbroken? Really?" Hilary jabbed a finger to his chest.
"Yeah, believe it or not," Kai said sternly.
"It was your crazy sense of possessiveness about me after you knew about Ryan," Hilary said ferociously, "If it wasn't that, you would have answered my calls and messages at least once in those damn two months," Hilary's shoulder swiveled in the emotional accord, her eyes containing rust of unappreciated love,
"I was upset, I was egoistic. I'm sorry," Kai was very guilty right this moment, "But I wasn't possessive about you in the crazy sense, believe me,"
"What does your sorry would change NOW?" Hilary asked calmly in a peaceful tone, "You didn't think what I felt that time? I was alone in a foreign country, no one to share my pains with, and, and a love that was not responding. What should I've felt? If it was for days, that would have explained, but it was for months! Months, Kai!" Hilary said as her heart wrenched at the memories.
Kai was quiet. He had nothing to say. His eyes were drooping low in spirits and hope was gone. Guilt and regrets filled them and he realized that he'd lost her in this moment.
"Come here," he said her gently lying on a small couch. She was dressed in white robes, returning from a warm bath, "I'm all here for you," She smiled beautifully with pleasure. She sat beside him, both of them lost in alluring gazes of staring each other.
"I love you," He said her holding her hand. The brunette blushed and smiled contentedly.
"Promise you will not leave me,"
"No, I never will."
The reminiscences made him nostalgic. His eyes were on the verge of moistening but he didn't let that happen.
The brunette stood and stared at him, trying to read his expression.
How did this happen? For a moment Hilary forgot Ryan completely. He promised their captain that she would never leave, but was SHE the one to leave him? No. Distances don't separate people, silence does and he was silent for too long.
Her thoughts brought back memories to her and she started to feel those feelings again, revived and afresh. Warmth took her over, even if it was for seconds. The time went slow and the quietude contained the flowing breezes after a scorchy sunlight hazed afternoon.
Her feelings for him were obscure this moment and it had been filling and replacing with hatred since so long.
She broke from her trance to notice him still pondering and lost, staring at the ground beneath. A screech of a car sound passed by and it was silent again.
"What are you thinking?" she asked finally.
He shook his head, "Is it really wrong and impossible for you start it all again?" He asked sincerely, filled atonement.
She stared at him in curiosity to say something more but the question was clear, "Might be yes,"
"I will be waiting for you," He said and turned to walk again,
"WAIT." She said harshly, her face making the cringed expressions to prevent the emotions from being revealed, "If Ryan was still there, would you have said this all what you've said now?" She asked loudly and clearly,
He didn't turn, "No…" He answered, "Because I know you loved him and it wasn't wrong after the mistake what I did of abandoning you. I didn't know I'd lose you… Because Ryan is not there, I'm taking chance to correct my mistake. Or else, I'd not have made you or ask you to choose between me and Ryan."Kai said. "I'd have been still happy,"
Hardest part is knowing that I had it,
Something almost perfect, we were almost perfect.
Maybe it's too late for me to save this,
But I gotta face this, no matte how I hate it.
I need your love.
Hilary nodded, unable to say anything more. Seven years it has been ever since they ended up. And now this all seemed like deja vu...
.

"Hilary!" Delia and Margot squealed as they saw her standing at their door frame, surprising them.
They glomped at her and she almost tripped. "Girls! I'm all here," You can chill up," Hilary chuckled.
"You've given us a surprise! How was Tyson's birthday party?" Delia asked. Hilary's smile disappeared and she was quiet,
"What?" Margot urged,
"Uh, it was fine. Good one," Hilary tried smiling,
"That's it?" Delia asked,
"We had lots of fun, we got a little tipsy, gave him presents, had cake puffed to Tyson and busted balloons and all hooting for truth and dares and stuff," Hilary said. She did enjoyed all those times but she really wished if they didn't end them. She didn't expect that all of a sudden, they would pack up and form a sudden plan to leave Tyson. Why did they do? Was this all pre-planned?
"Wow, must have been awesome," Delia chirped, "What gift did you gave him?"
"I gave him a watch, but he said he already bought one recently. Nonetheless, he accepted it gladly," Hilary said rolling her eyes, "And, how's everything going?"
"Fine," Margot said, "Except that, Nyhan came as patient to Delia yesterday," Margot's eyes lit in mischief,
"What? Tell me quickly what happened!" Hilary's smile broadened,
"Wait, will you?" Margot laughed,
"Nyhan complained of having nightmares and disturbed sleeps," Delia said controlling her flush,
"Obviously, when Delia isn't there in her life, how could the guy sleep sound fully?" Margot teased,
"Wow, then," Hilary said,
"I gave him some mild tranquilizers," Delia shrugged. She was thoughtful internally, feeling ambushed by her friends. She was furiously blushing by now and thoughts ran like light in her mind.
You say you can be yourself around me
But I wonder what you say to your friends
Oh I can't read your mind you know I hate it
I can't tell if your still on the fence
"Good, god!" Hilary smiled,
"So?" Margot looked,
"So what?" Delia shrugged,
"When are you going to tell him?" Margot and Hilary asked in unison,
"Puh-lease, stop pestering me over Nyhan now, it's too much," Delia vexed. What are we? You're texting me goodnight, kissing me goodbye in the morning, what are we? Your friends think I'm alright, and you give me those eyes every single time. What are we? I don't wanna lie, and I don't wanna hide that I'm starting to like you.
It feels like summer's almost over
I don't wanna slow down
You and me keep getting closer
So I'mma say it out loud
"Why not? You love the guy, he's our Ryan's brother, so handsome and damn cool, and what's wrong with him. You'd tell. He too might like you, that's the reason he came to you, not me," Margot said,
"I will tell him, not now," Delia gave up,
"When?"
"After internship," Delia mentioned,
"Fine," the girls rolled their eyes

A/N: Okay, so how was it? I think this was the longest chapter so far? I hope you all liked it with a little KxH in it xD
So yes, that was regarding them. Say something about Hilary's intuitions. I've almost said and revealed everything here. Lol yep. I wanted to elaborate on KxH part, but I thought this much should be enough. No offense. ;)
Tell me in your review what you want next, Flashback or Nornal chapter? Vote! I'm ready with both, just have to slightly prof read them. So do tell your opinion for SURE!
I'll list out the pairings now, so say in the review which all you'd like to support in this story from now. Just asking, nothing else, please xD
TyXAsh. TyXHil. KaiXHil. RyanXHil (Still). RaulXAsh. NyhanXDelia.

PLEASE REVIEW, that would really be appreciated. ^_^
