Disclaimer: Do you really think that if I owned beyblade, that I would be here writing fanfics? No. I wouldn't be. I would be putting all my ideas into the series, thus making it inappropriate for children.
Warning: There will be the usual stuff in this chapter, such as violence, swearing and the like.
A/N: So after careful (yeah right) consideration, I decided not to put a sex-scene in this chapter. I was originally going to have a boy/girl scene, but for some reason it just feels awkward for me to right them. So for the sake of my sanity, you'll have to wait for a while before there is anymore action. Maybe.
Chapter 6: Falling Apart.
Tala had said that he would talk to Kai when they got home, but he never did. After they had gotten home, he had went straight to bed, and Kai didn't have the energy to fight with him if he didn't want to talk.
It was February 13th. The day before Valentines, and everyone in the house was gathered around the dinner table ready for dinner. Everyone that is, except a certain little red-headed Russian.
Tala had left earlier that afternoon with a bunch of girls, like he had been doing for the past three days. He was almost never home, but when he was he was either drunk of his ass or high on something. And it defiantly wasn't life. At least that was what Kai thought. He had noticed the red-head acting weird. He was almost always giddy and giggling at something, or he was falling over his own two feet.
"God. Where is he?" Kai asked, slamming his hands on the table, thus getting everyone's attention.
Brian was the one to answer. "Well I don't know Kai. I saw him leave this afternoon, just like you did. You know just as much, if not more then, we do."
"And what's that supposed to mean Kuznetsov.(1) If you have something to say then spit it out."
"Ok guys." the black-haired Chinese boy said, trying to defuse the situation. "Just calm down. I know we're all worried about Tala, but fighting wont help."
"Shut up and stay out of this Rei." Kai snapped. "This has nothing to do with you. Now, what are you trying to say Brian."
Brian stood up, causing him to loom over the table and all of the silent occupants. "You know what I'm saying. I think you know what's going on with Tala. In fact. I think you're somehow involved. I want to know what you did Kai."
"Just who the hell do you think you are? You have no fucking right to be accusing me of anything."
"Oh so you don't think that it's weird that after Tala told us he was gay, less then a week ago, he suddenly is spending a lot of time screwing around with girls. He was fine, but then you two are alone for about half an hour, and now something's wrong with him. So, What. Did. You. Do?"
"I did what I had to." Kai snapped, standing as well.
"What's that supposed to mean Kai?" Rei asked, clearly hesitating, not sure he wanted to know the answer.
The sound of the front door closing, followed by laughter, drew the attention of the whole group. Tala was home and, by the sounds of it, brought someone with.
"I'm finished. I'll be in my room if you need me." Kai said walking away from the table.
"Hiwatari.(2) If I ever find out that you hurt Tala, I will kill you." It wasn't a threat. It was a promise. A promise that Brian was fully prepared to keep if he ever found out that Kai had hurt his friend.
It was a little bit after eleven o'clock, and Kai was laying in his bed, staring up at the ceiling. That girl that Tala had brought home probably hadn't left yet. He just didn't understand why it upset him so much.
'I just don't get it. Why am I so upset every time I see him with a girl. I... It couldn't be that I'm jealous could it? But jealous of who?'
Kai closed his eyes, in a failed attempt to sleep. When he closed them, like every other time, he saw Tala's bright blue eyes, filled with tears. He just couldn't shake that image. Maybe what he had done really was wrong. But how could it be.
Kai got out of his bed and headed to the door. He needed to talk to Tala.
Walking down the hall, Kai was able to hear the sound of muffled laughter coming from the red-heads room. This was going to make his talk with Tala a little harder then it really needed to be.
Without knocking Kai walked straight into the younger Russians'' room, only to see him in a somewhat compromising position with some random brunet. He was laying with his back on the bed, in nothing but his boxers, while the girl was straddling his legs and running her whore-ish tongue across his toned stomach.
'What the fuck does that slut think she is doing?' "You fucking slut." he spat out in disgust, getting the occupants in the rooms attention. "Is this what you've been doing? Bringing all these girls home and fucking them?" Kai was seeing red. It was like he had no control over his body, as he walked over and pulled the girl off of his friend. "Get out."
He watched as the girl walked out of the room, only turning his attention back to Tala when he heard the red-head laughing. It was then that he realized that the room reeked of the smell of pot.
"You actually thought I was going to fuck that slut. Hell no." Tala started cracking up laughing at the very thought.
Kai glared at the half naked boy before him. "I don't see what's so damn funny."
"Aww. Is somebody jealous?" Tala crawled to the end of his bed before sitting on his knees in front of Kai. "Don't worry Kai. My body belongs only to you. After all, you were my first." he said raising his hand to the other boys cheek.
Kai leaned into the gentle touch, sighing in content. Tala took this as a sign, so he leaned forward, and placed his lips against that of his friends.
They stayed like that for several moments, until Kai roughly pushed the red-head away. "Don't you dare do that again Tala." Kai stepped back and looked away from the boy that was sitting before him.
"Look at me Kai." Tala said pitifully. When he didn't get a response he tried again. "God damn it Kai, just fucking look at me. Please." Tears started to gather in his eyes, when he still received no response.
Reaching out, he grabbed onto Kai's face, turning it so he would look at him. "I don't get it. It's okay for you to screw me into the floor, when I'm crying and begging you to stop. But now that I'm killing to give myself to you freely, you don't want me."
His anger overtook him, when Kai still refused to say anything. He launched himself at the other boy, efficiently knocking them both to the floor. It wasn't long until the blows started. Tala couldn't stop himself. He had so much anger and hatred for the blue haired boy right now that all he wanted to do was hurt him. Hurt him like he had been hurt.
"I hate you Kai." Each word was punctuated by a punch either to the stomach or face. "Why Kai? Why?" The smaller boy continued to punch as the other boy just laid there and took it.
Tala continued to say how he hated Kai, over and over again, like a mantra. It wasn't long, though, until he was totally worn out. He just sat there, straddling Kai's hips, and broke into tears. He grabbed onto Kai's shirt and began to cry into his shoulder.
Tala and Kai were to distracted to realize the new presence in the room. Brian walked over, wrapped his arms around Tala's lithe waist and picked the small boy up.
When the red-head felt the arms wrap around him he started to struggle. He kicked Kai in the ribs as he was being lifted and carried away. "I hate you Kai!" he screamed. "I hate you."
"Shh. Tala it's going to be okay." Brian whispered into his ear, before looking at Kai. "You are a dead man Hiwatari. Just wait until I get my hands on you."
The duel-haired boy propped himself up on his elbows and watched as the lavender hair boy carried his friend away. Where had he gone wrong? He wasn't sure. The only thing he was sure of was that he had royally fucked up, and now he had to find a way to fix it. For Tala's sake.
A/N: Ok. (1) that's Brian's last name incase you didn't know that. (2) That's Kai's last name. Oh and incase you were wondering, no Tala was not having sex with those women. He was just getting high and fucking around with them. So yeah. Question? Comments? If there's anything you don't get, just ask. I hope you liked this chapter.
