Bryan
and Ray have a thing for each other we know, but do they know?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
“News!”
Ray
groaned, rolling onto his side and pulling his pillow over his head. It had been
two weeks now since Bryan had escaped from the flat, and in that time Ray had
visited on multiple occasions with the excuse he was seeing Chung Hu. One
occasion had been the night before when he and Lee had gone over and left rather
late.
“Yo
Ray!”
Yes,
they were excuses, he admitted that now. It was becoming obvious to him that
there was more to those visits, though he wouldn’t admit it to Lee. Though Ray
really did go to help train and generally be with Chung Hu, he also knew that he
went to see Bryan. He felt… safer
around the elder man.
He
smiled faintly, remembering the night, now seemingly so long ago, where he had
crept into Bryan’s room and they had… He chuckled. Yes, they had made love,
there was no other way of saying it. And now of a night Ray dreamed about that
night, of repeating it sometime in the future.
“RAY!”
He
growled slightly, burying his head deeper under the pillow. Why couldn’t they
just leave him alone? All he wanted to do was lay there and think about Bryan.
Either that, of think about new ways to stop Kai and Tala from trying to follow
and corner him every time he went out.
“RAAAAAY!”
“What!?”
He sat up, tossing the pillow aside. “Tyson, do you have to yell like that!”
“Well
get up! We’ve got news out here!”
Growling,
Ray pulled himself out of bed and made about getting dressed before unlocking
his door and stepping out into the corridor, hiding a yawn with the back of his
hand before he rubbed his eyes.
“Hi
there, Ray.” Mariah smiled up at him as he stepped into the room. “The BBA
just called. There’s going to be another meeting regarding the next
Championship.”
“They’ve
set a date?” Ray looked up, blinking. “When?”
“No
date yet, old friend.” Lee glanced up from where he was flicking through the calendar
pencilling in dates. “Just some rough estimates, plus a couple of meetings.”
“They’ve
changed a couple of things,” Kenny told him. “For startles, we’ll be
competing in the Adult division.”
“Adult
division?” Ray frowned. “Just brought it in, have they?”
“Yeah.”
Kenny straightened his glasses. “They’ve divided the competition. There are
now Junior, Juvenile and Adult divisions. Junior is up to 12 years, Juvenile
goes up to 20, and adult is everyone above. It is judged by the two oldest
members of the team, therefore we are all adults.”
“Not
that we younger ones are far off anyway.” Kevin scratched at the stubble on
his chin. “Ian’s the youngest out of us all, and he ain’t young. Give a
few years…”
Lee
looked toward him. “Though some of us should still be classed as Junior when
it comes to mentality and maturity.”
Kevin
glared and gave him the finger.
“Boys,
please.” Mariah chuckled, stepping forward and resting her hands on Kevin’s
shoulders. “Can’t you two go a minute without squabbling like children?”
Kevin
pulled a face. “Not you too. Can’t a guy get a break around here?”
Lee
smirked, returning his attention to the calendar. “An arm maybe…”
“Lee.”
Mariah shot him a warning look though they could see the amusement playing
through her golden eyes. She tugged at Kevin’s hair before looking toward Ray.
“Think they’ll ever grow up?”
“Doubt
it, and they’re not the only ones.” Ray nodded toward his younger teammates.
“What can I say?”
“Gary’s
mature,” Mariah pointed out. “When he’s not eating.”
Hearing
his name, the eldest of the household looked up. “Huh?”
Mariah
rolled her eyes as Kevin chuckled, Ray simply shaking his head and smiling and
meeting Lee’s amused gaze. Max and Tyson were still fighting over an aspect of
their favourite tv show as Kenny listened in before he looked up and moved to
answer the door as the doorbell rang.
“So
are they going to ban bit beasts?” Ray asked.
Lee
frowned, looking up. “Who gave you that idea?”
“Me.
Kai and Tala told Bryan and I about the meeting where they called you ‘old
fashioned’.”
Lee
snorted. “I’ll give them old fashioned. I would’ve punched their noses in
if I weren’t so busy helping Robert restrain Michael. Michael can be a real
fighter when he wants.”
“When
he’s not flirting with you, you mean.”
Lee
scowled, eyes moving downward to the calendar once more. “Don’t remind
me.”
“Lee.”
Mariah looked up from where she had her arms draped around Kevin’s neck from
behind, whispering in his ear. “Just when are
you going to get into a relationship?”
Lee
narrowed his eyes, smirking. “Who says I’m not already in one?”
“Yeah
right.” Kevin snorted. “I think we’d know, Lion.”
“Oh
really?”
“Really.”
“Boys…”
Mariah looked from one to the other. “Enough.”
Ray
looked thoughtfully toward his best friend, trying to read Lee’s expression. Already
in a relationship? Kev’s right, we’d know about it if Lee was, unless…
He wouldn’t, would he? That would
explain-
They
all looked up as Kenny re-entered the room, skin pale as he seemed to look over
them before casting a glance behind. Ray knew he was there before he even
entered the room, sensing the presence he had come to know well. A presence he
had once longed for. A presence he now dreaded.
Tyson
straightened sharply. “Kai.”
“I
see you’ve heard about the meeting.” Kai settled his eyes on Lee, taking in
that the neko-jin was writing on his calendar. His crimson gaze rose, narrowing
slightly at the corners of his eyes tightened. “Hello Ray.”
Ray
didn’t answer, meeting those eyes that haunted his dreams.
Kenny
cleared his throat, forcing a grin onto his lips. “We called Ray to come over
as soon as we heard about the meeting. We knew you would probably come over,
Kai, to discuss the new rules and that and begin preparation for the
championship, so we figured it would be a good idea to have the whole team
gathered.”
“Hn.”
Kai spotted Kevin, Mariah, Tyson and Lee glaring at him and turned his back on
them, moving toward the lounge area of the house. “Lets get started then. I
have better things to do.”
Ray
shot Kenny a small thankful smile as the youngers shoulders slumped, before the
rest of the Blade Breakers moved to follow their captain, Tyson and Max already
planning for Ray to sit between them so that Kai could do no harm…
~~~~*~~~~
“Well
what do we have here?”
Bryan
narrowed his eyes before stepping passed Tala toward the kitchen. “Piss off,
Ivanov.”
“I’m
afraid I can’t do that.” Tala smirked, looking to the side as he saw Ian and
Spencer joining them. “Team meeting. Right now.”
“Why?”
Ian asked, looking toward his captain. “Discover some new sexual feat you want
to tell us about?”
“Not
this time.” Tala’s eyes were cold as he moved toward the kitchen table, gaze
taking in the lavender haired man. “So why are
you here, Bryan?”
“Spent
the night. My room at my new place is getting painted and my housemate hated the
idea of me sleeping on the couch. I’ll be out of here in one more night. Not
that it has anything to do with you.”
“I
see.” Tala narrowed his eyes as Ian and Spencer joined them at the table.
“The real reason I’m here is because I got a phone call from the BBA this
morning informing me of the changes to the Championship setup, and I needed to
tell you just how it’s going to work…”
