Thanks to everyone who reviewed!

And, okay, two-shot it is…

Oh, and there were two people who correctly guessed the identity of the "He" in the story…they would be: Lioness Of the fire and Crazy fanfic girl loves-anime

It was: Kai!

Let the two-shot commence!

-x-x-x-x-

"H-home," Hilary stuttered. A small nod was her answer. Without even thinking, she grabbed his hand and ran towards the dojo. "Rei! Kenny! Max! Tyson!"

Tyson was furiously hitting buttons, his eyes glued to the screen as he tried to stop Max from winning the fifth straight game.

Kenny sat in a corner, talking to Dizzi. They were going over stats and strategies for an upcoming battle.

Rei was sitting on the couch above Tyson, and Max. He was reading a manga and glancing up at the clock every so often.

'I'll bring Hilary in soon…right now I think she needs some alone time…' Said neko-jin decided and his eyes wandered back to the page.

They all started when they heard Hilary's shout. All of them immediately dropped their things and raced outside to the porch of the dojo as Hilary came running around the corner.

"Hil," Rei asked worriedly before realizing she was pulling someone along.

"C'mon Kai," Hilary murmured softly, pulling him around the corner.

'Might as well…' The cold Russian teen thought and allowed Hilary to pull him around the corner to come face to face with the shocked Bladebreakers.

"Kai!" Rei was the first one to speak. He gave a small nod of recognition and as soon as he did, all four boys ran forward and were soon pelting him with questions.

A small smile wormed its way to Hilary's face as she stepped back and went out on to the lawn to allow the boys' their reunion in private.

She sat down on the surprisingly dry grass and looked up at the sky again.

"Thank you…" She whispered aloud as another shooting star flew across the sky.

After a few minutes, she noticed someone was standing behind her. Cautiously turning around, she found herself looking up into purplish crimson eyes. Suddenly, her mouth was dry.

"Hi Kai…" She muttered.

"Where did you go," the Russian teen replied. Hilary froze for a second. Was there a hint of a reprimand in his voice?

"I figured you guys would want your reunion with the team…" She shrugged and turned back to the night's sky. A hand entered her vision and gently spun her to face him again.

"You are part of the team," he told her, his hard purplish crimson eyes softening for a second as they gazed into her ruby ones.

Rei smirked from the window.

'I knew it…' He thought in satisfaction as he dropped the bottom of the curtain and headed back to his perch on the couch. 'All's well that ends well…' The neko-jin decided as he picked up his manga again.

She just stared into his eyes, frozen. He, the Kai Hiwatari, was close enough to kiss her!

'Wait, I did not just think that! Kai might be the team captain and he's saved me and the others a fair few times, but…' It was then that realization dawned on her. 'I wasn't feeling guilty…I missed him…plain and simple!'

Kai stared down at the girl who appeared lost in her thoughts. Yes, this was the same girl he couldn't get out of his.

Ever since he had left the dojo, she had never been far from his thoughts, although he'd rather die than admit it. He couldn't believe it had taken him this long to realize he missed her; he had thought it was just because he had left her with his teammates.

Well, Kon was capable of protecting her, he knew that…and Tyson would rather die than let anything bad happen to her, but he still wasn't at ease.

But…he had waited too long. Kon had taken the place he had hoped to fill.

"Um…Kai?" She watched as his eyes lost the almost thoughtful look that had adorned them. "Could you…let go now?" His hand immediately released her chin, like dropping a hot brick. "Kai?" Hilary felt really pathetic for asking this, but she had to know. "Why did you come back?"

When she got no reply, she sighed; typical Kai. As she turned around, something brushed against her lips. It took her a few moments to realize they were Kai's own.

OWARI!

Okay, now it's done….

Unless anyone asks for a three-shot…and by then, I might as well make it a story, not a one-shot…

Oh well…

Let me know what you think!
