Chapter 5
"Guys wake up breakfast is ready!" Ray shouted loudly causing me to crack an eye open. I opened both eyes and sighed, smelling the wonderful aroma of cooking that could only belong to Rei Kon. I sat up and yawned pretty loudly causing a few weird looks from Ray and Max.
"What?" I said stretching.
"You usually never sleep in is all." Ray said smiling.
"It was a long night. Seems like you got a lot more sleep Mr. Sleepyhead." I said smirking.
"Um, yeah. Sorry about falling asleep on you like that." He said blushing a little. "Do you want coffee or hot chocolate?"
"Why would I want to drink hot melted chocolate?"
Ray and Max looked at each other before laughing. I raised an eyebrow and looked at both of them. Did I miss something? "I'll make you some. It's not like you think it is." Max said smiling.
I looked over at the couch to see Tyson still knocked out. Looks like I didn't wake up too late. Waking up behind Tyson is just shameful. I stood up before yawning again. "What are we doing today?" I asked almost regretting it.
"We're going snowmobil… ing. Um, we're riding snowmobiles. You know what those are right?"
"Ray I was born in Russia. It's like the only way to get around."
"Oh. Yeah, I forgot."
"Well sounds like some fun I guess."
I sighed before falling back on the couch. I really didn't feel like waking up today. I sat there for awhile until something started to move underneath me. I looked down and smiled. "K-Kai get off of me!" Tyson shouted at me.
"Oh sorry." I said with a smirk before getting up and moving to sit on another couch.
"Tyson are you hungry as well?" Ray said trying not to laugh.
"No, I think I'm going to skip breakfast this morning." He said looking down. I stared at Tyson, Ray gasped and I heard Max drop a mug causing it to break on the ground.
"Sk-skip breakfast?" Ray shouted wide-eyed.
"Yeah what's so wrong with that?"
"You never skip breakfast!" Ray yelled back.
"Well I'm not hungry this morning sooo, I guess I'll just go take my shower now or something." The bluenette said lowly. He walked upstairs yawning before disappearing in his room.
"He seems kind of bummed out to me." Ray said watching him leave.
"What gave you your first clue?" I said in a really sarcastic tone.
"Shut up. Wonder what's wrong with him though. Maybe he's mad that he couldn't come with us last night. I do feel kind of bad for not letting him come now that I think about it."
I looked at the neko-jin who was looking down and then at Max. He was sweeping up the cup he had dropped and didn't look to happy about something. Either way there was a tension between the three of us that normally was never there. "Ray, I'm not hungry either. I'm going to go watch TV in your room." Max said not making direct eye contact.
"Um ok. But why don't you watch it in your…. Room." Max was already gone and had disappeared into my and Ray's room. He sighed before looking hopefully at me. "Are you going to disappear too?"
I smirked. "Naa. Tyson and Max don't know what their missing. What's to eat?"
"Santa Claus Pancakes."
"I'll pass."
"What!?"
"I'm kidding." I said hiding my smile.
"Oh. Don't do that."
(After Breakfast)
"They've been upstairs all day now." Ray said making me look up from my hot chocolate.
"Yeah so? If you ask me it's more of a relief. No more noise."
"I guess. But I wanted to watch this with everyone." Ray said holding up a boxed case.
"What is that?"
"It's a Christmas movie. It's called Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. It's been one of my favorites since I learned about this holiday."
"What's it about?"
"Do you want to watch it with me?" Ray said blushing.
"Um sure. Why is your face turning red?"
"U-um. No reason." He said quickly before running to put the movie in. He sat back down next to me, holding his knees.
"So what's this mov-"
"Shhhhh. It's starting!"
(Ray's POV. Ten Minutes later)
"So wait the reindeer has a red light bulb for a nose?" Kai said trying to observe every aspect of the movie.
"No. Well sorta. It's just a red nose."
"But it lights up. I don't think it's normal for a nose to light up. Are you sure it's not a disease?"
"Kai this is a children's movie. I doubt it's a disease."
"Yeah but he wonders why everybody makes fun of him. It could be some form of reindeer disease that causes you nose to turn red."
"Why would it be a disease?"
"Well maybe he's in heat. And the other reindeer's don't want to play with him because he might try to hump them or something."
I sweat dropped. "Kai your missing the point of this entire movie. The main thing is that he leads Santa's sleigh at night.
"Ok but why is it that this one night everything is foggy and all of a sudden he needs this little light bulb to help him fly through the sky? How is it that the entire sky is foggy all around the world? Plus wouldn't a light in the sky cause attention? I thought he was supposed to be secret."
"……" I sighed before smiling. He was like a little kid that asked way too many questions. I didn't really know how to respond so I just stuffed a convenient cookie into his mouth. "I don't know, just watch. I like this part."
Kai smiled before chewing the cookie and scooting closer to me. "What's this?" he said holding up a green leaf. My face went instantly red.
"W-Where did you get that?"
"It was part of the decorations on this table." He said pointing to where he got it.
"It's called mistletoe. If two people stand under it than its tradition that they kiss." I said turning my face the other way so that he wouldn't see how red it was. I gasped when Kai suddenly pulled my chin towards him and he kissed me very lightly on my lips. My eyes flew open and to tell the truth, I really didn't believe what was happening. His lips were so delicately soft that I couldn't believe they belonged to this person who was raised in a place as rough as the abbey. He pulled away before raising an eyebrow.
"Like that?"
I was speechless and my eyes were still wide open. "Y-yeah. L-like that." I said blushing even harder than I thought possible. The doorbell suddenly rang causing me to jump. I could not believe that had happened.
(Tyson's POV)
I sighed and stepped out of the shower shivering like a small kitten. Nothing like a cold shower to make you feel like crap. I wrapped a towel around my waist and quickly got dressed in my room, not really surprised that Max wasn't in here. I put on a yellow turtleneck and all blue pants. I didn't even bother putting my hair in a ponytail or getting my hat. Way to much work. After, I walked to the banister and looked down with a bored expression. It looked like everyone was watching a movie. Bored and with nothing better to do I walked down the hall into Kai and Ray's room since I didn't see Max downstairs. I had made up my mind to at least apologize to him for what I did. I couldn't keep on living like this. I took a deep breath before opening the door. Low and behold there was the blonde playing a video game in Ray's bed. It looked like Ray's DS. I walked over to the bed and sat down slowly. He didn't say anything or even acknowledge that I was there and my heart clenched. "Max. I'm sorry for what happened." I said lowly and looking directly at the floor. I heard him pause the game and he sat up.
"It's ok." He said before going back to the game with a frantic look on his face.
I sat there for awhile looking at him before speaking up again. "Max, really, please if your angry can you at least tell me that much?"
"I'm not angry Tyson, I said its ok." He said still focusing on the game.
I couldn't believe he was using the game as a diversion. "Look I came in here to apologize so that we could be friends again. Can't you even look at me!?"He paused the game yet didn't respond. He looked straight down into the bed. I stood up with my fists clenched. "Is it that much of a shock to you that I feel that way about you?" I asked lowly. He didn't respond again. "If that's the way you feel I don't even know why we became friends." I said making my way towards the door. I put my hand on the knob before turning around again. His head was down and he was holding his knees. "Max I love you. I know that now. I know that you don't feel the same way but I at least hoped we could have been friends. Or that you wouldn't have shunned me like this." I said lowly. I was about to turn the knob when I heard him speak up.
"Tyson wait I-" the door to the room suddenly flew open knocking me to the ground. I looked up and my eyes widened.
Hilary's unmistakable smile loomed down on me. "Hi-Hilary!? What are you doing here!?" I said all at once.
She smiled. "I came to see you silly! Mao was on her way here and invited me to come along."
"Wait Mao's here too!?" I said just thinking of the voice that drives me crazy like fingernails on a chalkboard.
"Yup!" She then looked at Max and then back at me. "Did I interrupt something?" she said with a questioning look.
I stood up and looked at Max who was looking back down at the floor. "No, I was just leaving. Come on Hil." I said before slipping her hand into mines and walking out the door.
(Ray's POV)
I opened the door and my currently smiling face twisted into one of agony and despair. "NOOO!!!!!" I shouted inside my head. Kai walked up behind me. "Who's here? Oh no."
"Hey guys!!!" Mao and Hilary said at the exact same time.
"How did you find out where I was hiding, err I mean vacationing?" I asked quickly.
"That's easy. Daichi told me." Mao said smiling. Daiiiiccccchhhhiiiiiiiiii. That sell out.
"Oh well go home." Kai said slamming the door and walking away.
"Kai!" I opened the door and being the way to nice neko-jin that I was, let them in.
"You guys are supposed to be staying here aren't you?" I said hoping I was going to be wrong.
"No way!" HALLELUJAH!!!! "We're staying right across the street." Damn it all to HELL!
"How can you stay acr-"
"I can't believe I almost got sidetracked! Where's Takao!!!" Hilary shouted interrupting me.
"H-He's upstairs." I said trying to get the hearing back in my right ear. She ran right past me at an unbelievable speed. I heard a loud "OMGWTFBBQ!!! Hilary!" from Tyson and sighed before continuing.
"How can you stay across the street if there is no street?"
"We're not literally across the street but we're really close. REALLY CLOSE."
I sweat dropped. "How close?"
"Upstairs." She said smiling.
I sweat dropped even harder. "But you just said-"
"I wasn't serious Ray! I can't stay away from you any longer!" She said latching onto me. "And we'll be taking you and Kai's room."
I sweat dropped so harder so that my head was currently experiencing neck pains. "Great."
I suddenly heard Tyson's shouting from atop the stairs. "Hilary! Stop pulling!" he shouted loudly before suddenly falling down the stairs. He hit the bottom with a loud thud and his eyes twisted into unconscious swirls. (You know like on Pokémon when a Pokémon faints? Yeah those kinds of eyes. All swirly and junk.)
"Tyson you should really be more careful." Hilary said walking down the stairs and stepping on Tyson's butt as a step to get to the bottom.
He scowled before getting up. "You shouldn't be all pushy!" he shouted back.
"Well I wouldn't have to be if you had at least called me from time to time." She said crossing here arms.
"I did call you! At least once a day!"
"Once?"
"The rest of the time your texting the living hell out of me."
"Well maybe you should text back."
"I wouldn't have to if you didn't send them every two seconds."
Hilary fumed up just as Tyson had before sticking a finger at him. "Well Mr. Kinomiya if that's how you feel than I won't text you!"
"Fine. I blocked your number anyways." He said smirking.
Hilary fumed up even more, her face turning red. "Well at least I can take care of my child!"
"WE DON'T HAVE A CHILD! Err, do we?"
My face turned red. This was getting way out of hand. And everyone was just sitting down and watching. At least they hadn't lost their personalities. Even if they were going out, they still fought like crazy. "Of course not! I wouldn't have a child by a slacker like you!"
"Then why the hell did you say that! Plus this slacker just happens to be a world champion!" Tyson shouted back.
"Yeah a played out champion." She said back.
"You know what!"
"Tyson, Hilary calm the hell down. Your giving me a headache." Kai said making both turn away from each other with their arms crossed.
"Now that that's over what should we do today Ray Ray?"
"Ray Ray?" Tyson and Kai said at the same time. They looked at each other before busting out laughing making my face go red.
"Stop calling me that. And we were supposed to go ride snowmobiles but I don't think that will happen beca-"
"YAY!! I love snowbobobby's!" Mao shouted loudly.
"There snowmobile's." Kai said in an irritated tone.
"That too!"
Max suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs, and Tyson who was laughing, suddenly quieted down at the sight of him. "What's going on?" he said yawning.
"We're going to ride snowmosicles!" Mao shouted loudly.
"Ok that wasn't even remotely close. It's snowmobile's Mao!" Tyson said.
"Watch it bub! That's Mrs. Kon to you!"
"M-Mrs. Kon?" Tyson, Kai, and Max said altogether.
I sighed before blushing and looking to the ground. "Mao and I are engaged to be married." I said lowly. Tyson and Max gasped loudly while Kai stared at me wide-eyed before fainting onto the couch.
