Chapter 3- The beginning of true love

Rrrrrrriiiiinnnnnngggggg! Rriiinnnggg! Rrrriiiiinnnnnnnngggg!

"Yoh! Get the door!" Anna's shrill voice squealed from inside the bathroom.

"All right! All right! I'll get it. 'Yoh, get the door'," Yoh mimicked in an Anna-like voice and got up from his comfy, warm bed.

"I heard that!! Just for that you'll be cleaning the house today instead of Morty!" she screamed. Yoh mumbled something under his breath that sounded like 'when did she get so mean – bossy- again- after- training so hard- I thought she- become –nice!' He got to the lounge when he saw Tamera opening the door already.

"It's okay, Yoh. I got it," she smiled.

"Thanks Tammy!" Yoh said and got ready to greet the visitor. It was Len. Tamera's eyes widened as she nervously said hello.

"Uh-Hi. Is Yoh here? I am here for practice," he said slowly, carefully choosing words.

"Um-hum," Tamera nodded, "It's Len, Yoh," she said looking at Yoh who was putting on his famous orange headphones.

"Hey, Lenny!" Yoh waved towards him, "You here for battling? Cuz I'm ready! Bring it on," Yoh motioned a bring-it-on action with his fingers and grinned an evil grin.

"That was supposed to be my line, usually," Len said, his eyes half-closed and arms crossed over his chest. Anna came in.

"Did you get the door, Yoh darling?" she said, wearing a bathrobe, her hair shining wet, "Oh, and I'm sorry about that cleaning thing. Morty'll do it," she looked at Len, "Hum? Welcome Len. I'm sure Yoh needs some training but I'm just too busy to train him." She was too shy to admit that she didn't want to train and torture Yoh anymore, "By the way, when's Shorty coming, anyway? He must be here by now! It's cleaning time,"

"I'm sure he'll be here soon Anna and you should try to be better towards him, you know. I don't know what I did that got you so soft towards me," Yoh said. Anna cheeks were suddenly flushed a deep red color

"I-you-I am-oohh!!" she mumbled, blushing. She recovered soon anyway and commanded, "You're cooking the supper today and Amidamaru! You'll do the bathroom. I want everything sparkly clean before mid-night!" she stalked off to her room.

Amidamaru looked angrily at Yoh, "You really had to say that, didn't you,"

"Heh, Heh. Sorry!" Yoh turned back towards Len, "So Len? Come on! Let's battle!!" he said menacingly.

"We've gotten much better since the tournament Asakura!" Len grinned as Bason appeared.

"Um? I think I should leave now," Tamera said and started towards her room.

"No wait, Tammy," Yoh looked at her, "You can be the audience for the battle and tell Len just how much better we have gotten with our skills!"

"You can't battle in the house!! Use the backyard," Anna commanded. She had changed in her normal clothes again with her red scarf around the neck.

The trio silently went out the backdoor.

"That was great! I can't believe you let me win so easily!" Yoh cried, entering through the main door. Amidamaru and Bason had gone to take a walk and talk for relaxation.

"I told you! It was just a warm up to see your new techniques and use them against you!" Len said, blushing hard with embarrassment. To tell the truth he was too caught up in Tamera constantly blushing, when looking at him. Whenever he looked at her she would be blushing and poor Len would loose all concentration.

Why do I always loose myself in front of her!? No Fair! Len sat down on a soft couch angrily. Tamera was pouring Pirika's fresh juice for the both of them. Suddenly he felt his head grow hot and sweaty. No, No! He shook his head. It can't be! I don't have any of those feelings for her. Len looked at her. Hummpph… Whatever. I don't like her. Final!!! But Len couldn't force his heart to like or not to like someone. Tamera returned with two glasses of juice in her hands. She put one in the kitchen counter, as Yoh had gone to the washroom, and walked pretty unsteadily towards Len. She was so nervous that she looked straight at the ground and didn't notice the small round table placed in front of the sofa. She stumbled over the table and spilled the glass of punch on Len's maroon pajamas.

"Whoa!!!" Len got up; "You!" he looked angrily at Tamera but suddenly softened up as he saw the tears that stood in the ends of her eyes.

"Ooh…" she moaned sadly, "I-I'm so sorry Len. I- I didn't mean to. Oh!" she sobbed a little. He must think I'm so clumsy! She burst into tears.

"Hum?" Len looked at her, "It-it's all right. You don't need to cry," He felt very uneasy and red. Did I make her cry? He thought worriedly. Normally, Len wouldn't even care if anyone was crying or not, never mind he thinking the reason behind it. But now?

"Um. Tam?" he whispered, feeling a little guilty. She continued weeping a little and then looked up, brushing away a pink strands matted to her tear-stained face, "It's all right," he said. Her face glowed a light pink color.

"I'm sorry," Tamera whimpered.

"No. I told you its okay. I'll just go home," he stood up to leave and walked to the door. Tamera sat on the ground, looking at him sadly. Then she stood up and went to close the door as Len left. Len!!!! I like you so much. I- I think I even love you!! Her heart screamed and it looked like Len heard it. He looked back instantly, his eyes wide and then quickly smiled. Tamera looked at him, wide-eyed. Did he hear it? He couldn't have. She tried to smile back at him happily but failed. Her heart was aching to tell Len but she was just too shy. Tamera closed the door. Len kept looking at the door for a little while and then snapped back to reality. Huh? What? Tamao…… I should leave. Len quickly walked back to his house.

sO? DId yOu liKe iT? It wAs sWeEt wAsN't it? I really liked it anyway. Please review! I'll write soon. The next chapter will be more about Lee and Jun.
