Wherever You Will Go

Omi POV
I woke up to see that I was lying on my mat. As I tried to sit up I winced in pain forcing me to lie back down.
"Ow…that was most unpleasant," I said to myself.
"Hey, Omi how are you feeling?"
I looked and saw that Raimundo had entered the room and was looking a little too worried.
"Don't worry, my friend I'm at the tip of my game!" I winced trying to sit up again trying to show that I was ok, but the pain was still a little too much for me.
"Hey take it easy, Omi. It's too early for you to try and get up and I think you mean at the top little dude," Raimundo said as he put his hand on my arm and gently pushing me down so I could lie down.
I blushed.
"So what happened Raimundo did we get the serpent's tail or did Jack take it?" I ask trying to change the subject.
"Don't worry about it little dude, Clay managed to kick his ass in a showdown," he said still looking at me worried.
I looked at him for a few seconds and started realizing why he was acting the way he was.
"Hey, I don't blame you for what happened. It wasn't your fault, Raimundo," I told him.
"I still feel like it is, Omi. I mean I was right there! I should have seen it coming," he looked at me sadly.
I sighed as I looked at him.
"Raimundo, tell me something. If that were me in trouble and not you would you have done anything to protect me?"
"You know I would!" He quickly responded.
"See? There's nothing for you to feel guilty about, Raimundo. You are my friend. I would do anything I can to help you," I smiled.
For a second I could have sworn that he was turning red.
"Besides even if you did try and stop me from protecting you I'd still make sure that you didn't get hurt."
Raimundo just nodded.
"Hey, Omi, can I ask you something?"
"Sure, what is it?"
"Do you have feelings for me?"
If it was possible my heart would have exploded out of my chest and my face would turn so red that I would look like a tomato.
"Uh…why do you ask?" I asked trying to keep my voice sound normal.
"I uh talked to Dojo earlier and he told me," Raimundo said rubbing the back of his head nervously.
'The next time I see Dojo, I'm going to strangle him!' I told myself.
"It's not a big deal, Omi, besides if it's true…I kinda….like you too."
Now I was really certain that Raimundo really was blushing.
"R-really?!" I almost squeaked a little.
"Yeah."
Raimundo started leaning closer to me, as he was on his hands and knees, making me turn even redder as we met in a kiss.
Kimiko POV
Clay and I were looking at them with the door barely opened. I giggled as I closed it.
"I told you they had a thing for each other," I turned to Clay smiling.
"Yep well you were right about that, but you wanna know something?" Clay said as he looked at me.
"Oh yeah what is it?"
Without warning, Clay leaned down and gave me a kiss.
"I don't reckon you knew about how I felt about you."
I turned hard red as Clay started running laughing.
"Clay, get back here! You are so going to get it!" I chased after him still feeling rather light headed and happy about that kiss.
