Online Romance: Chapter 2

"Hey there, little buddy!" The Blademaster, Orca, slapped the petite back of his smaller Twin Blade friend, Kite. He didn't get an immediate response so he figured something must be wrong. "Something the matter, Kite?" He looked down at the boy, who seemed to be in his own world. Orca had found Kite in Mac Anu, sitting by the crates looking in the water. Where he had first met the unusual, yet intriguing Mia, and the shy Wavemaster Elk.

Kite knew that Orca was there. He was just not in the mood to talk to anyone.. Really. He sighed and looked back towards his school mate. "No. Nothing's the matter." somehow he knew that Orca wouldn't buy this...

"Wrong answer." The green/blue Blademaster leaned against a crate. He crossed his arms and looked down at his companion. "You probably did fool other people with this fake act, but it won't work on me."

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Kite felt a tang of guilt by lying to his friend. But how can you tell someone that you knew for a long time a secret that he had? What is he going to say? 'Hey Orca! Guess what? I think I'm in love with your partner, Balmung!' Kite knew what he was going to do. Say absolutely nothing.

"Don't pull that with me! At school I always see you staring off into space. Even in here. What's gotten into you?"

Kite frowned. He didn't want to look that obvious that something was wrong. He had to give Orca credit..

"Well?"

"What?"

Orca grinned. "You've fallen in love haven't you?"

Kite's heart stopped. How could he have figured out that much! He opened his mouth to protest but not a single word left his mouth.

"Ah ha! So it is as that! Kite. You're too gullible." he gave a hearty laugh. He wasn't expecting that his first guess to be true.. This will be very interesting.

Kite finally exhaled. He was holding his breath. He may have guessed that part but there's no way he'll get who the person is.. Kite hoped.

Orca chuckled. "Don't look so worried, Kite. I'm not going to ask who it is. I don't like to pry on other people's lives. But.. I'm not saying that you don't have to say who it is.." he joked.

Kite relaxed. "Thanks, Orca."

"But seriously. Let me tell you something. Don't cry over someone who won't cry over you. Words of the wise." Orca reached over and patted his friend's shoulder. Then he got up to leave. "See you around at school." then he logged off.

"Orca.."

A/N: ARG! This is one crappy chapter! It's too short.. I know, I know. But next one won't be as short! I just wanted a scene with Kite and Orca.. A friendly little chat and such.
