Kai: This girl does not own beyblade or any of the characters.

Rei: But she does own the story line!

Kai: I was getting to that!

Rei: Sorry Kai, Love you.

Kai: Hn

Kai hastily got dressed. He and Rei then left the room and went down to the lobby.

Tyson, Max and Kenny were already there waiting for them.

"You're late!" Tyson yelled, seemingly overjoyed, "The infallible Kai is LATE! YES!"

Kai sent a icy glare Tyson's way before turning to the rest of the group.

"We're going to get some breakfast, fast, and then leave for the tournament. Tyson will play first, followed by Max, I will play last."

The rest of the team looked at Kai with confused expressions, except Rei who was staring at his shoes.

Kenny spoke first, "But Rei…"

"Is sick." Kai cut him off, "I will take his place."

The rest of the team nodded in understanding.

"Ok, breakfast." Tyson said, walking towards the dining area, Max and Kenny followed suit, with Rei and Kai slightly behind them.

Rei stopped at the door, his face going white.

"Rei? What's wrong Kitten?" Kai asked softly, placing a hand on Rei's shoulder.

"I don't think I can go in there." Rei said, biting his lip nervously.

Kai nodded, understanding how the overpowering smell of food would upset the Neko-jin's already sensitive stomach.

"Wanna go wait in the bus?"

Rei gave a weak smile and nodded. Kai wrapped his arm around Rei's waist and lead him out towards the bus.

"Kai, what are you doing?"

"Taking you to the bus."

"You need to have breakfast." Rei said, trying to unwrap himself from Kai's grip.

"I have food on the bus." Kai stated, holding on tighter to Rei. "Besides, I'm not having you sit by yourself, besides, you might need me…er something."

Kai and Rei got on the bus. Kai lead Rei to the back seats and they sat down.

"Better?" Kai asked as some colour returned to Rei's face.

"Yeah." Rei said, nuzzling his head into Kai's chest.

Kai stopped breathing for a second and looked down at Rei. Breathing again, he started stroking the Neko-jin's face.

"Kitten, you're really burning up, are you sure you want to come?"

"If I don't you guys have to forfeit the tournament, I don't want that." Rei said.

"Ok, promise me you'll tell me if you start feeling too bad, ok?"

"Mmhmm."

"How do you feel now?"

"Ok." Rei said, although you could hear in his voice he was trying to suppress a cough.

Kai laughed, "Honestly Kitten, you can't lie. Now, how do you feel?"

Rei sighed, "My throat hurts, my chest hurts, my head is pounding, my stomach hurts and I feel sick."

Kai squeezed Rei's hand in comfort, "Poor kitten"

A single tear fell down Rei's cheek, Kai's heart went out to his poor kitten. He wanted to make him better again but didn't know how.

"Shhhh, it's okay." Kai murmured into Rei's ear. He bent his head down and rested his lips on Rei's temple, kissing it gently.

"Why don't you try and get some more sleep Kitten, I'll wake you up when we get there."

"Love you." Rei said, closing his eyes.

Kai kissed his temple again, "Love you too Kitten, sleep tight."

Rei: R&R and she'll update faster!

Kai: That was my line too!

Rei: Aghh Sorry!

Kai: Just be glad i love you.

Rei: :D
