All the songs for you~

Chapter 8-

"The lunch was made by Sal, hey!" Kane frowned, ready to pounce on Max who was teasing Kane.

"Salima and you are officially dating now. Isn't it?" Tala smirked

"Unofficially I guess?" Kane left Max's collar and thought about it.

"Just because we haven't given her a welcome sister in law party, huh?" Tyson laughed.

"Give it then." Kane dared, smirking confidently.

"We will!" Everyone minus Kai roared. Kane flushed, happily though.

That Saturday night, Salima was invited by the Stereo Hearts at Kai's place. Large and exquisite mansion to hold free welcome party. Kane hasn't said a word to her and simply invited her saying that it was just a dinner. Salima has picked up Hilary on way from mall and thought to have a ride with her till she reached, however when Tyson, who was standing at the foyer with flowers to sparkle on Salima along with Zeo and Max, spotted Hilary in Salima's car and by her nose stud, he easily made sure that it wasn't Hikari.

And when the ruby eyes met Tyson's, there was an instant attraction, once again. There was no way she was expecting to see Tyson at the last hour of the day's end, when she was bathed in tiredness, craving for sleep, dressed informally in black jeans shorts and grey full sleeve tee. Salima was sort of surprised to find Tyson and others. She was expecting only Kane to meet her. However before she could ring her phone to him, Max has opened the door and pulled her out and Tyson momentarily dismissed Hilary's presence in the car, and jauntily sparkled flowers on Salima,

"Welcome to us, sister in law!" They yelled in unison, giving her a group hug, Tala joined as well, attempting to pull Kai who summoned all his strength to stay away. He has smiled at her and that was enough sign that she was warmly welcomed here.

However Hilary didn't understand what she was supposed to do. She was watching them celebrate, the guys taking her inside like she was a bride. Kane has just strode out from mansion, smiling thunderously, holding her hand and kissing softly on her hand. The guys cheered, especially Tyson.

"Damn, he can't just get his eyes off you, Salima." Tala laughed.

Kane broke his eye contact from her and looked around to break the unease his best friends were determined on creating up.

Hilary understood that she wasn't invited in, so she did what seemed suitable- broke her longing staring period from Tyson, not knowing why he was stealing glances at her so constantly. She shifted from passenger seat aside, asking the driver to drive her home, ignoring the stingy feeling of leaving this perky place that had Tyson in here.

However Tyson has beckoned the driver and probably asked him to get some snacks. Hilary thought that she better waited until the driver returned. When the foyer cleared and he was alone standing there, Hilary timidly shivered, she could feel his eyes boring into hers through the half paned down window of her seat. 'He would leave soon.' She appeased her thoughts.

She looked at other side, trying strenuously to stop thinking of his actions. Flash forward ten seconds, Tyson had dared to fling open the door and get himself inside, startling her. He slammed the door shut, and slumped against the backseat.

"Uhm, hey hi." She smiled slightly.

He didn't respond, instead, he softly sparkled flowers over her from the bare basket he was carrying all along.

Hilary gasped, looking at the petals covering her all over and the seat. He smiled genuinely at her, and sprinkled more petals on her.

"Keep looking out at me in my most unexpected times." He summoned his fleek voice to sing the lyric he has last written. He dreamily and gently stared at her, his cheek tiredly pressed against the back of seat rest. Hilary looked like a bride, with rose petals scattered all over her, nose stud shining out, bare street light illuminating her glowing face. Weakly smiling, he stretched his arm and grazed his fingers across her side of nape to pull out her hair band in one go.

"You keep on making all of my dreams come true," he whispered the lyric mellifluously, just missing his guitar right now.

This seemed more of night that should have belonged for Hilary and him, but anyways they were celebrating Kane and Salima.

Hilary was fumbling her fingers, caught up between her lover's eyes and drink in his sweet voice or bashfully look around at roses.

He yawned loudly, feeling sleepy. He just wanted to sleep, too tired for today. He just wanted to pull off his shirt and lie down into a slumber. However as his conscious hit him, he ignored his shirt and just slipped off clumsily to lie down in Hilary's lap.

"T-Tyson, uh sir!" Hilary shook.

"Shush." He demanded and grabbed her nearest palm and sandwiched weakly between his own palms.

"It's just you and me. Now. Call me Tyson." His tipsy and weak voice said her. His eyes became teary and a sudden memory from past hit him. She sensed that he had become emotional. His eyes were teary.

"Tyson...what's wrong?" She asked him, caressing his head,

"I never want it to happen," he softly cried and then fell into sleep as his mind flashed him the memory of his past dream with Hilary. Something which he dreaded to happen. Scared so cryptically that shook his tired soul.

Hilary was slightly perplexed. Probably he was just blabbering things in tiredness.

Hilary waited the entire night in the car, after sending the driver off, not wanting anything to disturb Tyson's sleep. She had fallen asleep in stationary car with Tyson in her lap, hands held together, snores softly in sync, breaths dancing tiredly.

When Kai had come out to check Tyson after he didn't pick their calls to participate in their little celebration, he caught the glimpse of them sleeping in car and he had no intentions of disturbing them anytime. He'd informed others that Tyson went after Hiro's call which they reluctantly bought.

When Hilary stirred at 2 a.m, she made sure she took this chance even when her eyes were bleary, consciousness half faded- she leaned towards him and nuzzled across her cheek and stubbled jaw breezily, closing her eyes and not moving, letting the touch burn her for a while then, "I love you, Tyson." She mumbled, shedding a tear before slumbering against him.

The celebration went all throughout the night. It seemed just a little less than an official wedding itself! There was dinner, sweets, dances, games, movies, jokes, pictures and talks which drifted them to sleep, splayed across the couches, duvets on marbled floor and even the sofas. Kai's grandfather was gone for a trip abroad, and the other 2 occupants of the house, his parents were hospitable enough to allow Kai's friends party there and create all the mess and havoc to enjoy out.

When the dawn broke, Hilary had stirred again, but seeing that Tyson was sleeping the same, she didn't make any efforts to get up either. His stubble pricked her skin, her nose was red, however she only slightly shifted her skin across his, but didn't pulled away even a tad. He was never this closer before, never for this longer, never this peaceful.

'I've spend the night together with the person I adore the most, what could be more embellishing than this?'

When Tyson was sleeping, Hilary knew he wouldn't shout at her, he wouldn't tease her or hurt her. He would just be quiet, and yet be there. All these days, her moments have been caught up between his sweet side and his rash attitude that came up aggressively and suddenly, and she had a hard time not focusing on the latter. Their day to day moments made it all, she knew how he smelt, how he felt, how he smiled and even closed his eyes.

Now when they were locked in this proximity, scooted against each other, she had breathed his scent the entire night, felt his head and unruly hair on her bare legs the entire time, getting her blood numb and aching by now. Her back ached by bending the all night in an attempt to keep her face on his, and let herself take in, in her bare desires.

As the sunrays hit the window panes, Tyson stirred and frowned in his sleep. 'Why didn't Hiro pull the curtains yet?' He thought in his sleep. He hated morning sunshine disturbing his sleep.

'And why the hell is my body aching this hard?' He strenuously opened his eyes which first glanced at the Hilary palm locked in his.

'Why there are 3 hands here? Am I dreaming?' He blinked a couple of times to realize that he wasn't even in his bedroom but a car and he was half slumped on seat. His cheek was slightly heavy as hers laid against his. He ghastly pulled away, badly waking up Hilary as well who got hit by his head in her forehead in the swift process.

"What's happening?" He yelled. Hilary was very sleepy initially but his loud irate voice made her bristle up. She looked confusingly at him.

'Oh I remember now...' He sheepishly rubbed his head. The events of last night unfolded slowly, 'But why even my friends didn't come to call me up?' He groaned inwardly.

When he was busy wrecking his wires, Hilary stretched her back and aimed to relax her worked up muscles.

"Are you okay?" She asked gently.

"No!" He yelled at her face, "My entire body feels like it went through a hell of ride of last night." His words felt like they could cut through her skin, she worriedly nodded.

"And why didn't YOU wake me up?" He protested.

"You had quietened me. Don't you remember?" She said politely. 'Yea, now I remember that.'

"Whatever." He sulked, rubbing his cheek. He suddenly noticed that her one side of cheek was flushed red too.

"Hilary," his serious voice asked, "Now, I know I'd slumped on your lap last night, b-because I was tired out of world, I didn't know what happened to me."

She briskly nodded.

"But why where you snuggling your face against mine! What's wrong! How dare you?" He has slid a step closer to her, glaring mightily.

A sweat bead trailed off her forehead. 'I don't know why I did that.' Her mind was addled.

"Answer me girl!" He said in an aggressively heavy tone. She slouched back against the window at the lack of distance between them suddenly and dangerously.

"I'm sorry." She said, her nose reddened even more, eyes half closed.

"I know you look pretty when you're scared but that doesn't even interests me anymore. You. Had. Taken advantage of me in one way, and no, I DON'T APPRECIATE that, at all." He barked, causing a single tear to roll down on her side which she quickly masked by her hair through slight moments of her head.

"I never meant to." Her voice came hoarse and stuttering, "I'm really sorry."

"Ugh, I don't believe this. I hope my friends didn't watch me here last night. I wouldn't hear the end of it if they discovered what happened here," he pulled away and ran his fingers through his sweaty hair, sulkily looking around. The garden and foyer were empty as of now, only few gardeners were spraying water in some sight.

"This is one horrible morning." He incoherent mumbled, and roughly got himself out of the car,

She watched him meticulously, heart beating in anxiety as his words stung real bad.

"And! One more thing," he peeped through the window, scrunching the basket under his feet on turf, "I will check out the project today in lunch. Keep it ready properly."

"Yea, I'll." She mumbled, "It's in locker anyway."

He plodded towards the mansion, to grab a plush duvet and dive into sleep for some more time until all the Stereo Hearts woke up to pester him to wake up for Uni, minus Kai; because Tyson caught a glimpse of him walking with a towel on his shoulder in corridor.

Hilary swept swiftly the remnants of tears as she unlocked the door of her apartment. She was expecting Hikari to yell and launch at her, and maybe then she would hug her twin and relieve her stress even if she wasn't planning exactly to tell what had happened up all. But to her surprise, Hikari was at breakfast table, warmly smiling at her sister,

"Oh it's time you showed up! Welcome up,"

"Hey, thanks." Hilary smiled back, finding it all uncanny.

"I couldn't pick your phone last-"

"It's okay. I know you were with Stereo Hearts with Salima at celebrations."

Hilary's eyed widened.

"Kai had called me last night and told me not to worry. I know you'd good time there. Plus why would I worry when Kai and Salima were both there around you." Hikari passed the platter to her.

"Yea, it was good," Hilary smiled, pulling off a facade so finely this time that her twin failed to notice.

Hilary begrudgingly ate the breakfast and scooted to washroom, to vent out entirely in shower for once and all.

She didn't understand of what she should be doing, what she should be feeling about him after what all he said her, criticized her and panned all over.

'I love you...can't you see it? Don't you? Why are you hurting me... it's getting hard day by day. Please don't do this to me...It's getting very bitter and painful.'

He'd so blatantly taken her for granted, admonishing her, venting off, kissing her abruptly near lockers, smiling softly. All mixes up together and didn't made sense, except at the end, she was utterly hurt.

Tyson woke up when Kai flashed a mug of water on his face, followed by Kane throwing a towel in his direction,

"You missed the party last night!" Zeo forwarded his hand,

"Oh ," Tyson caught his and Zeo pulled him up,

"We had tons of fun." Max chirped,

"Come for the breakfast," Kai said, his tone somewhat surreptiously.

"What work Hiro had anyway? That he called you up from our gathering." Ray asked, packing his bag pack.

"Hiro?" Tyson asked with a frown.

"Kai said that Hiro called you up, shortly after we led Salima inside into hall." Kane added,

"Ohh," Tyson understood the entirely story now, "Yeah, he needed my help. Cases piled up."

The entire first years crew gasped as their lecturer, Miss Smith threw a big news at them. Final exams in 15 days. They just wrote their internals a month back and now this sudden notice?

"Is this a joke?" Lydia asked,

"I hope so," Hikari sighed, seething inwards.

"So much to wrack brains through these obese books!" Hilary groaned as well.

"Nothing much for you, genius," Lydia and Hikari said airily.

She sighed. As the lecture ended and the crew walked out for Physiology lab, Hilary noticed the festive mood of peers on hallways and canteen court. Mostly occupied by Interns and few seniors, they were planning out the last preparations for the Exhibition. There seemed to be a free feast as well.

Hilary hoped she didn't have to crash Tyson somehow until they both met when it was expected and decided, after the working hours and just sort out the project once and all.

She smiled as they finally stepped in the hall. Her smile faltered as saw Kane and Kai standing on podium, with Kane nastily smirking at the present peers.

"Well come in guys!"

They went to their counters and looked at the cards splayed there. Surprise test?

Hilary's eyes widened, 'Evaluate the WBC count for your partner.' She looked at her opposite. Hikari blinked at her own card. It read the same.

The twins pricked each other's fingers that day and tested the blood.

"I gotta test Tyson's blood actually." Hikari wickedly laughed,

"C'mon, give it a rest." Hilary petulantly sighed.

Lydia received the RBC count placard and the peers were busy pricking, testing and noting the observations.

They submitted their sheets after clicking the microscopic pictures and submitting the testubes.

Tyson was walking to his car, watching Hiro tiredly waiting for him in distance when his phone buzzed,

"Today was tiring, football match is up in a week, Tys." Max reminded.

"Yea yea, I know. We'll practice in evening." He checked his phone,

'I was waiting to show you the project since quite time.'

"Oh fish! I forgot about it, how could I!" He rubbed his head and looked nervously at Hiro. Smiling sheepishly with sweatdrop.

"I've some work, you carry on Doc!" He blurted before darting off in opposite direction towards the reception entrance.

"Hey! What's up?" Zeo and Max chased,

"Leave him. It's Hilary I suppose," Kai said and lifted the two friends bags in air from back to stop them. They gulped.

"He doesn't have the courtesy to come on time, careless guy!" Hikari slammed the table again.

"I don't know, he should be here-"

"I'm here!" He stormed towards the empty cafeteria and bumped against the table almost.

"Ouch, you're so clumsy."

"Okay, it kinda slipped from my mind. I've my show next week and a football match, plus my internals are coming up too. Too much to cope for me!" Tyson panted, while Hilary forwarded her hand to give him tissue papers.

"Oh," Hilary nodded, "I see..."

"I'm waiting in the car, don't take too long." Hikari grumbled and left.

"Bye Hiks!"

Hilary tore the packaging cover of the project and showed him.

Tyson stared at it for a second longer and nodded, "Perfect." He looked it from all angles hurriedly and peered closely, skimming the highlighted contents of boards.

"You made the bacteria more pretty than they should be," he chuckled.

"Oh!" Hilary slightly laughed as well.

"So, like your sister said, I'm clumsy, so you take this model home, keep it safe. Get it tomorrow!"

She nodded, dully looking at him and away.

He was about to leave, hoping that Hiro still waited or he could ask Kai drive him to home but then a sudden thought stopped him.

He carefully turned to look at her. She looked sad and dejected. Dull.

"Did you have your lunch, Hilary?" He asked,

"Yeah," She picked up the model carefully to leave,

"Okay, I guess you're nervous for tomorrow but chill out, okay. We are together in this, nothing will go wrong." He said optimistically, "It will be easy."

She blinked at him. He had got her all wrong, but now that he mentioned it, she did realize she will be nervous for tomorrow,

"Hope so," she meekly mumbled. He looked at her for few seconds, making it difficult for her to leave, "Or are you upset for something between us?"

His voice was straight and clear, on point.

She fought whether to admit the truth or not,

"I guess yea," she smiled jadedly,

"Take it easy, I'm not always cool to put this straight. I get angry often-"

"Rude often, sir."

"Argh, yea, so what? Forget it, you've more important things to focus for tomorrow. I'm not going to stand here all day to cheer you up." He stepped towards her and smiled, "Alright, I'm sorry okay,"

She smiled back in maudlin, the bulk of sadness easing up in her chest, "Hmm," she nodded,

"It was early morning and I kinda panicked out today. Plus we were in car, not even somewhere uh private. So... don't mind."

She nodded maturely.

"Good, that's the spirit!" He rubbed on her head, "Goodbye,"

Her mood was better now that he said sorry. She has messaged him about the topics she was reading in evening. He rather send his own picture in black sweatshirt and shorts, standing in a background of ground with football swishing in air with his friends. He was smiling half heartily, as if his friends were teasing him in background. The bleachers were empty.

"Seems he's practicing." She said to herself, 'Good luck :)' She pressed the sent button.

"Tyson's gonna loose this time, Kai will win! Hikari smirked at her, standing behind and giggling.

"Manners Hiky!" Hilary jumped away.

Her phone buzzed, 'I'm all dependent on you for tomorrow. I'm not sure if I'll get time to check out the topics today; the match's still not over, please handle it all. I trust you.'

Hilary immediately texted, 'You focus on your match, don't worry about tomorrow.'

Tyson messaged, 'Thanks, you're always sweet. :) bye!'

Hilary blushed happily and spun on her heels,

"I bet he'll win!" Hilary smirked at her twin confidently.

Hikari glared back, "We'll see."

'KAI, BABE, listen. You will have to win the match tonight and in the next week. Don't let Hilary laugh at me here. Show that Tyson that you're better!'

Even Hikari didn't expect but Kai instantly replied back, 'You got me, Hiky. :3'

Tyson was sweating hard, drenched, it was the last minute inn, his hair were disheveled, sole of his shoes half torn, calf muscles aching tremulously, his tired face glowing in mix of peach and red. He looked at Max, Ray and Zeo. They smiled at him cheerfully though they looked half dead there.

The ball came running in his direction which he passed to Ray, blocking Kane from chasing. Kane was speeding faster and Tyson felt his muscles tear out of burdening and running. Kai ambushed the ball and trotted straight towards the net. Tyson's eyes widened and his all hopes relied on Max.

A bated breath escaped his burning throat as Max caught the ball. Time over. They were even.

"Well that was quite a match now." Tala smirked, returning from the goalkeeper's net side.

They changed and Tyson quickly bathed before the boys left. He has asked Kane to drop him home on his bike. Tyson was too tired but he didn't miss laughing and teasing when Kane relieved Salima's call on their ride to home, who was excited to hear about his match.

Tyson surreptitiously messaged Hilary, loyally, 'We were even. Good night, ;)'
