Love The Way You Lie; Chapter 10. 'Is he going to add this to his I owe yous? Or just keep harassing for the fun of it?' -.-;

A delicious grin appeared upon Kai's dry lips when his replacement beyblade knocked his new rivals beyblade into the air. "I think we've done enough training for one." He announced, sounding like he had a better idea in his sly mind. He then raised his fingerless gloved hand up into the warm sky and caught hold of Liberty in the palm of his hand. Oh how he did enjoy winding up this blonde, but when those 'tough guys' began intimidating his team-mate, a familiar sensation filled his prideful figure, feeling the need to protect her. Only because in his view, he was the only person who could pick on her when nobody was looking.

Feeling her aching and tired muscles tense as this girl was prepared for the unexpected almost twenty four seven, she blinked with a speechless impression written all over her face. "Why did you do that?" Pearl asked in a slow tone and shifted her chestnut brown eyes down onto the ground, to see his Dranzer beyblade was still spinning. Is he getting better? I'll soon have to nudge his confidence again – She thought to herself cunningly.

The Hiwatari began to make the tension in the atmosphere more playful than serious. "Because I felt like it. Lets go back to the hotel to have lunch." The lone-wolf then placed her replacement blade into his baggy blue trousers, then raised his hand up into the air once more, to catch hold of his hot spinning top.

Thats when just by looking at the Bladebreaker leader, she could tell he was up to something. It was one of his rare and bored moods. His crimson eyes that were once filled with anger and loneliness, were now calm, like a school boys. "Erm, okay. Give me my beyblade then we'll make a move." Pearl answered and slowly approached the attractive muscular Russian with the palm of her petite hand reaching out to him.

But he nodded a no and placed dug his hands into his pockets. "You still haven't paid me the rest back for this material." Kai replied in a less cold manner and closed his eyelids for a moment, to then teasingly peak out one of them, witnessing her reaction. It amused him secretly, especially now her jaw had widened.

"You have got to be fucking kidding me!" The American couldn't believe this! "Kai, give me my beyblade. You told me we'd go half each!"

Again, he nodded a no. "Well I have changed my mind."

This was a clear bribe and the now impatient blonde hissed under her warm breath. "I ain't asking again." She made her remark clear and shoved her hand sharply in his view again. It'd been a long time since Pearl had seen her ex-boyfriend in this mood, it was last year when they were dating. They used to agree on such daring bets before their beyblade matches, the loser would then obviously perform their end of the frisky deal. Sometimes in the bedroom, whilst others were chores or date payments. They used to be so close, until he sacrificed it all for the tournament.

The now 18 year old male who was on the edge of retiring his beyblade career, then felt his eyelids fly open instantly. The tables had turned, it was now him feeling his heart skip a beat unhealthily, Pearl was the person doing all the unpredictable behaviour issues.

Revealing that daring masculine side, she then grabbed him by the scarf and forcefully shifted him closer to her face. That's when Kai's delicious grin faded into a smug smirk. "I dare you." He provoked, demonstrating how he was excited to see how this resulted. Whenever the couple had a fight in the past, they had a fight.

The feeling of her soft breath brushing against his hungry lips, made the Russian crave for her taste, making him realise that were so many occasions when he'd missed Pearl. Yes she was good in bed, but a shit beyblader at the time, he always used to admire her passion and ambition, that's what originally drawn him to her, and still continues to today.

The silence of the wasteland around them revealed an unfamiliar sound inside the feisty blondes chest, her heart was pounding against her rib cage, so louder than usual. Whilst her mouth then went dry. Kai then wrapped his hand around her wrist securely, waiting for this climax in the atmosphere to come to an end, it all depended on Pearls actions.

"You get on my nerves sometimes."

"And you get on mine all the time."

Pearls cheeks then flared up with a pink blush. "Then why do you stick around?" She questioned in a more softer and innocent tone, gazing her chestnut brown eyes into his hopelessly. Oh how she adored this man and would do anything for him, the thought of seeing a side of him nobody knew made Pearl feel so lucky and one in a million. But this new lady Kai had brought into the frame, made every awkward flirtatious scene even more exotic and breath taking.

A shrug left the Dranzer holders built shoulders, it was clear he knew why, but he just didn't want to admit it. His pride came before his heart and head sometimes, that's why he never really accepted people in to his life easily.

But Pearl then slowly cracked a weak smile on her peached lips and sighed heavily. This hot tension in the atmosphere was becoming too unbearable to pretend nothing was happening. She eventually loosened her grip on his long scarf and shifted her hand cautiously to stroke his pale cheek, noticing they were a little warmer then they looked visually. "Still stubborn huh?" She mumbled and laughed quietly.

Now back to the beyblade point.

"You know just as well as I do, I ain't got the money for that." The blonde added. "So come up with something for that smart ass."

Kai then raised an eyebrow. Oh and I will – He thought to himself, slowly pulling her closer until her lips were upon his. In a less rough approach compared to last time, he shifted his lips in time with hers, being more romantic. The snog deepened the longer they were connected and Pearl closed her eyes, to enjoy the lustful shiver gush down her spine.

Releasing her wrist and lowering his controlling guard down, the Hiwatari then wrapped his arm around her hour-glass figure, to gently pull her closer against him. Admiring that soothing scent that he used to enjoy waking up to every weekend morning. Pearl then began pampering his cheek with her thumb, noticing they were burning hotter by the second.

Except, just when the blonde realised that 'love sick' arousing feeling revived in her wrenching stomach. She knew this teenage love affair moment couldn't last long. Being out in the open had its disadvantages with these demanding hormones. Slowly, she slid her hand down from his cheek and dug it deep into his baggy blue trousers, to grab hold of her beyblade.

Immediatley Kai's eyelids flew open quickly and his hand reached away from her figure, diving straight towards hers.

It was too late. SHIT!

The American then backed away from him quickly and giggled cheekily. "I can be a twat too." She winked and wisely clenched hold of her beyblade tightly. "Maybe some other time Kai."

"I don't think so." Kai huffed and broke the eye contact link between them, embarrassingly looking his crimson eyes into another direction. "You can pay for your own lunch too. Dickhead."

"Lead the way boss."


Back at the commoner hotel was quite relaxing and for once, the tension at the dinner table wasn't cautious like it used to be. Everyone was laid back and eating their lunch without a care in the world.

"So guys, what did you get up to in the end?" Max asked and placed some of his meal into his mouth. "I didn't know you guys trained together."

Kai then stopped chewing and Pearl placed down her glass of water calmly. "What makes you say that?" He questioned, returning back to that heartless tone.

"You came back to the hotel together?" The Dracial holder stated and felt his eyes widen, judging by the way his leader replied, it was obvious this was an awkward topic for him, that he clearly didn't want to discuss. "Or was it just co-incidence?"

Everyone else (apart from Tyson) paused from eating their meal, and the ex-couple in disguise felt the pressure when everyone scanned their eyes into their direction. "No, we didn't train too be honest. Kai saved me from these boys ganging up on me." Pearl explained, with a twist of an empty lie.

"WHAT?!" Hilary gasped in shock. "What happened?!"

"Gosh, are you guys okay?" Max added and swallowed forcefully.

A laugh left Pearls mouth as she picked up her fork again. "Nothing much really, we wiped the floor with them." She concluded the topic and reached over the table to pick up the vinegar to sprinkle on her chips.

Allowing the Dranzer holder to sit and not have to waste his breath on the unimportant topic. But, that didn't quite go according to plan. The dark haired pale Asian then asked a question aimed at Kai. "Speaking of you two, have you both had a beyblade match yet? No doubt Kai would demand a match after hearing how good she was up against Tyson." He then cautiously recorded their reactions mentally. Something is obviously going on here, BUT WHAT!?

The blue haired Russian then nodded a no. "I have better things to do then challenge an average beyblader." He replied and closed his eyelids to hide the truth in his eyes. For once, he was grateful for the harsh childhood he had, it trained him well to hide those 'fluffy' and crap emotions. Kai could call anyones bluff, but they couldn't call his.

Just as she was about to place the fork filled with food into her mouth, Pearl went stiff and and shifted her attention towards the leader. Still, she didn't dare say a word to kill their cool. Despite the fact everyone else was waiting for her to rip his head off.

"Okay then?" Rei blinked and continued to eat his meal.

"Oh you should Kai. She's really amazing." Max smiled and gave up persuading, when he realised Kai had stopped listening to everyone. "Or not?"

Kenny then interrupted the topic. "Kai and Pearl. I am almost done with re-building your beyblades. But I have added a new twist to them." He then pulled out his laptop on to the dinner table to show the pair the designs.

"It looks complicating." Pearl gulped.

The youngest brunette then laughed. "Its the metal rings, they are thinner and they will slice through anything. It will also increase the speed of your beyblades."

"It sounds like he's talking about a woman's razor blade advert." Hilary smirked sarcastically. "You should start using more than just one metal ring."

"Speaking of beyblading, who is beyblading in the tournament?" Tyson asked, with his mouth half full. "I want Kai to see her beyblade."

Rei then raised an eyebrow. "There is no need for him to wait for the tournament. I will happily beyblade Pearl if she is up for it. The locals around here were too easy and I need some ambition to get me started again." He suggested in a friendly tone, with his predator fierce eyes narrowing.

"Uh..." Pearl bit her lower lip. "Sure?"

I swear all people want to do, is ruin my beyblades!
