Hey everyone its Muffinsweetz here with the next chapter of "You've Got it All Wrong". I'm so happy I got all of your reviews and I'm glad you enjoyed it (although I'd have liked more)! But I think I might take long updating now that summer's hit because I'll be going places and yeah…I wish I had a laptop! But I'll try my best to update as soon as I can, though. So, anyways, on with Chappie 2!
Disclaimer: I don't own Beyblade.
Sudden Disappointment
"CHINA!" yells everyone in unison (except Rei and Kai).
"Yeah, the White Tigers are inviting us there. I just got a call from Mariah. We're expected to be there in three days!" says Rei.
"Oh, yey, Mariah! I can't wait to see her again!" says Hilary, getting all excited.
"You're not the only one," Tyson smirks, looking at Rei. Rei blushes.
"Great! China! I can finally see the White Tiger team's beyblades. I've wanted to study them up close," says Kenny.
"Awright, China! So Kai, you wanna come along?" asks Max.
Kai simply shrugs. "Sure, whatever," is all he utters. So basically, everyone was satisfied and wanted to go. Atleast, in Tyson's eyes.
"Ok then, China it is! We'll all meet back here in two days, packed and ready to go! Agreed?" he says.
"Agreed!"

It was raining hard as Tyson was walking along the path towards Hilary's house, which wasn't far. Now, Tyson had given this a fair bit of thought, and, decided that he does have a small crush on Hilary. Ok, maybe not small. But its still a crush, so he planned to not say anything, mostly because he was scared of rejection. And also because he knows it ain't cool to show up in front of a girl with your face beet red, which he still needs to practice on. Today, he was going to Hilary's house for a friendly visit, to see if she had started packing yet.
Finally, he was at her door and knocking. The door opens and he's greeted by a very surprised looking Hilary. "Oh! Tyson, I never expected you to come. Look at you, you're soaked! Come in and get dry," she says. She then leads him into her living room, where she has Tyson sit, then hands him a towel.
"I can't believe it, such a heavy downpour in the summer!" she says, seating herself on a chair.
Tyson chuckles, brushing his wet hair with the towel Hilary gave him. "Calm down, Hil, its no tornado! And I'm not injured or anything so you don't have to worry, hehe. But thanks," he adds hastily, seeing the look on her face.
Hilary smiles. "No problem. Actually, I'm glad you came. I was hoping for some company. When it rains, I feel so trapped…" she trails off, looking out her window.
Tyson, feeling curious, asks, "Is anything wrong, Hil?"
"No."
Not convinced, he gives her a quizzical look. When she sees him, she starts giggling. "What?" asks Tyson.
"Tyson, you never made that face before!"
"So?"
"So, ha ha, you, look funny!"
She then throws her head back and starts laughing hysterically. "Ok, ok, you've had your laugh, not funny anymore…"says Tyson.
"Ok…ok… I'm ok," she says, still smiling. To be frank, Tyson loved it when she laughed, because it made her look even more beautiful. Her smile was her best feature. And her eyes, too.
"So, what brings you here?" she asks.
"Oh, yeah, I came to see what you're taking to China. You know, gifts and stuff, maybe," he says.
Suddenly, Hilary's smile vanishes. "Um, about that. Tyson…I really hate to say this, but…I won't be going to China with you guys."
His heart does a back flip. "What? Not going? But…why!" he asks.
She looked down at her hands. "When I told my parents about it, they said they were sorry but they just couldn't let me go, because I've never been anywhere so far away without them. You know how protective my parents are, Tyson. They can't trust me being on my own," she looks up at him, and Tyson could see tears in her eyes. "I was really looking forward to going…"
Tyson couldn't believe it. "So this is why you feel so 'trapped'. Its not the rain, its this, isn't it?"
"Yes."
It was his turn to look down at his hands. How could this happen? How could a perfect plan to go on vacation with all his friends be put down like this? Did her parents think Hilary might have an affair, or something? Is that why they can't trust her? This was crazy, Tyson thought. He knew he had to do something.
"Maybe I can talk with your parents, you know, convince them to let you go," he suggests. "I mean, we're all gonna be there, we can protect you if anything goes wrong. But what are the odds of that?"
Hilary smiles. "You know how my parents are. When they make a decision, its clear there's no way anyone can change their minds. But thanks anyway for trying." After this neither of them has anything to say, so the two of them sit there, lost in their own thoughts. Then Hilary remembers something. "Let's go upstairs. I have a favor for you," she says, getting up. Tyson follows, a bit puzzled, but curious.
Hilary leads the way to her room. Once inside, she asks Tyson to sit down, then starts rummaging through a few drawers. Tyson's curiosity grew and he just had to ask, "Hil, what are you looking for?"
"Just a little something I—aha! Found it." She turns to face him, with a small pink box in her hand. "I bought this for Mariah. But since I'm not going, could you give this to her for me please? It would mean a lot."
"What is it?" Tyson asks. Hilary hands it to him, and he opens the box. Inside is a sparkling necklace with a charm. The charm read, "Friends Forever". Tyson looks up at her and smiles. "Ok, I'll give it to her for you."
"Thanks," she says with a smile. A long, awkward pause follows. Tyson could feel his cheeks growing warm for some reason, so he speaks up.
"What time is it?"
"Oh, its almost six. My mum will be here soon," says Hilary. Then her eyes light up. "Hey, you wanna stay for supper?" she asks.
"Sure!" says Tyson. But its not hunger that tempts him to stay longer. It's the fact that he'll be with Hilary that makes supper sound a lot more appetizing.
