1This is really really AU and almost all the characters are as OC as they can get. Anyway pairings are TalaXBryan and slight RayXKai and a little Boris bashing here and there. There may be an early death. I warn you it is Yaoi so if you don't like it get out of Dodge!! Rated M for words and later Lemon

Third chapter!!! yeah!! Ok I decided to be very mean to all those (other) kai fangirls out there. KAI AB---- I cant tell you that. Hehe. Anyway I don't want to hear all this "I cant believe you did that to kai!" cause I like him to. We all know he's hot lay off.

Disclaimer: yeah dreaming about something never seems to work. I don't own BeyBlade and probably never will. I make no profit from these stories and write this only for my own, and anyone else's, pleasure.

Bryan led Tala out to the waiting room and set him in a chair. He then went to the counter to give the hospital his number for any problems that may arise. When he looked back to where the redhead was he was gone. Bryan rushed out of the hospital and looked around the parking lot frantically. "Tala?" he called

"Hey I'm over here!" he called from behind. "Hey you got a smoke? I need one bad."

"Do you smoke?" Bryan asked pulling out his car keys.

"No, not usually, but every once in a while I need one. Especially if I don't have a boyfriend to shag or something like this happens." he said, looking at the sky. "I mean every time I had a hard day he was there to comfort me and help me. After all of my boyfriends left me- when they found out what I had as a father- Ian was always there, with shoulder there to cry on."

Bryan had led him to his car and opened the door. Tala got in and went on with his story. Bryan listened eagerly wanting to know everything about this man.

"I moved out when I was 19. The guy I was sleeping with was abusive and controlling. The only one that would believe me was Ian."

"So your younger brother's name was Ian?" Bryan

"Yes his name was Ian Papov. We were half brothers. Our mothers were the same but he kept his dad's name to piss Boris off. That is my dad's name and that is part of the reason my dad hated her so much. She went off and decided to cheat on him with Ian's dad and even gave him his name to carry. So as soon as she had him he had her shot right in front of us in the middle of the nursery. We were only 7. After that we decided never to let him know any thing that would anger him about us. We would always hide or run away together. Boris always brought us back though and punished us pretty bad." Tala finished his story with a sigh. Bryan pulled up to his apartment building and got out helping Tala to his feet.

"I'm fine, really, I can –" Tala tried to stand on his own and fell flat on his butt. "Oooh that's cold ice, cold, cold ice!" he said taking Bryan's arm as he held on for dear life. He helped Tala to the lobby and towards the elevator taking it up to the fifth floor. When they reached it he slowly led his way over to the room marked 59. As Bryan took out his keys he heard a voice.

"Hey Bryan. How's the new house? And who's your friend?" He and Tala turned to see a man with shoulder length, layered, raven black hair and honey golden eyes. He had just came out of his house with some jogging shorts and a navy blue wife beater on. Bryan looked past him and saw a very clean house. 'Hmm that's very odd Ray and Kai are usually kinda messy.' Looking at Ray again he saw that there were a few bruises around his neck. They also littered his arms and it looked as though a few made there way to his chest.

"Oh the house is doing ok. This is Tala. Tala, meet Ray" Bryan said gesturing to Ray

"Pleasure to meet you Tala" Ray smiled holding out a hand.

"You too." Tala tried to smile making it look kind of lopsided. Looking at Bryan pointedly he added "I think I may be staying with Bryan for a few days. I've just been evicted and I need to get back on my feet." he said hoping Bryan could read the hint and not dump him on the street.

"Yeah, we're old buddies from high school and I decided to help out a friend, ya know?" he covered smiling at Ray.

"Oh yeah, I understand." Ray looked at his door with sorrow in his eyes. "Hey, do you think I could come over for dinner tonight? Kai and I had a fight and he won't be back 'till tomorrow on business. I don't like eating by myself, and we can welcome you to town you know?"

"Sure, I think I have to go to the store now but that's ok. I mean if it is for you?" Bryan asked Tala. He gave him a look that said please don't turn him down.

"Sure that's fine." he said putting on a fake smile. Ray bought it and called on his way out "Hey, I'll get dinner don't worry, it will be great!"

As he jogged away Bryan made a mental note to keep a watch on him as he led Tala inside. Once inside he showed him were the bathroom was and where to find towels. "Soap's in the tub; you can shower or you can have a bath it, doesn't matter." he said leaving him alone and turning on his IPod Home. 'Lips of an Angel' started to play and he layed on his couch with his head leaning back. About thirty minutes later he heard the water cut off. Lifting his head he saw Tala and caught his breath. He was beautiful. His wet hair came down to frame his beautiful face. The towel he wore around his waist hung low and Bryan couldn't help but look at the tattoo on his hip. It was a purple lizard that went head first down to the one thing Bryan really wanted to see. 'Pull yourself together man you just met him! You can't go around screwing every hot guy that come your way! If you did you'd be dead!'
