04: Sleepless Beauty

 

“Now don't you be spending all your money, T-man!” Gramps waved his kendo training lance at his grandson in warning. “Don't blow all your dough, yo?”

Tyson sweatdropped, rolling his eyes as he slipped into his shoes and slung his overnight bag over his shoulder. “Yeah, yeah, Grandpa! I won't! By the time we get there, we'll probably just go to the hotel and crash. And I doubt Kai will want to shop much tomorrow.”

“Maybe, maybe not! Just don't waste your cash on trash!”

“Sheesh!” Tyson waved over his shoulder. “Okay, Gramps! I'm going to wait for Kai out front. See ya!” He hurried out the door before his grand father could protest, missing the sly grin on the old man's face.

Looking up and down the street, but not spotting Kai's car yet, Tyson leaned against the dojo wall in a pose he'd learned from Kai - ankles crossed casually, weight leaned back with shoulders to the wall, and arms folded over his chest. The only difference was that Tyson's eyes were open behind the dark pair of sunglasses he wore.

He didn't have to wait long for his rival. Not five minutes later, Kai pulled up in his shiny black sports car and got out, eyeing the other teen and his bag.

“What? Are you moving out or something?” Kai inquired in amusement. “That bag looks big enough to hold all your clothes.”

Tyson stuck out his tongue and picked up his bag, walking over to the car to stow it in the trunk as Kai opened it for him. “It's the only bag I have - other than my school bag, I'll have you know.”

“Oh, relax.” They slid into their seats and Kai pulled away from the curb after a quick shoulder check, leaving the dojo behind.

“You're in a good mood.” The bluenette observed after a moment.

“Am I?” Kai shrugged. “I guess so. I don't have anything to complain about…yet.”

Tyson made a face. “You're so pessimistic. Can't you just enjoy yourself for once?”

“I didn't say I wasn't. And I'm not pessimistic.” Kai frowned at him through the darkness of the sunglasses on his face. “I'm a realist.”

“Whatever. Same difference.” Indifferently, Tyson shrugged and wiggled around in his seat until he was comfortably slouched and relaxed, settling in for the ride.

“You did remember to bring the tickets, didn't you?” Kai asked, glancing at him sideways as he manoeuvred through traffic.

“Of course I did! You think I'd be stupid enough to forget something THAT important?” the bluenette scoffed, then hastily added, “Don't answer that. You would think I was that stupid.”

“I didn't say that, either. I was just asking to make sure before we got so far away that turning around would really have pissed me off.”

Tyson just pouted, wondering if maybe this hadn't been such a great idea after all. “Gee, thanks.”

“You're welcome. No charge.”

“Argh!”

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

The ride to Tokyo was a long one, even if it wasn't that far away. Traffic was killer on the major highways, since it was a weekend, and by the time they pulled up into the parking lot of the hotel that went with the tickets, it was nearly midnight. And sometime during the ride, Kai happened to glance over at his travelling companion when an unnatural silence had descended on the car, only to discover the bluenette had fallen asleep.

It took some serious willpower on the crimson-eyed teen's part to keep his attention on the road and not simply sit there and stare at Tyson, watching him sleep. He was…beautiful in his slumber, lips parted slightly with every little puff of breath, midnight blue hair flopping into his face, a faint splash of pink colouring his cheeks, and his body curled up just a little in the seat. Those lips were tempting Kai to lean over and place is own against them, and the hair looked silky, making him want to run his fingers through it just to find out if it really was or not.

But he resisted long enough to get them out of traffic and into a parking spot. Then, turning the car off, he unbuckled his seatbelt and turned a bit in his seat to study Tyson some more. Luckily for him, he hadn't woken up the bluenette when he'd turned off the car, so he actually could sit and ogle Tyson as much as he wanted.

He still had to sit on his hands, though, to keep them from reaching out on their own to touch and pet.

After five minutes of staring at Tyson and openly admiring his sleeping beauty, Kai shook himself back into his usual demeanour and nudged the younger teen to wake him up. “Hey. Tyson, we're here. Wake up.”

“Un~gh?” A gloved hand came up to swat at Kai. “Go `way.”

“Wake up, baka. We're at the hotel. You can sleep in the room.” Kai tapped him on the nose until he wiggled it and sneezed.

“ACHOO! Damn it. What was that for?” The World Champ grumbled and sat up straight, rubbing sleepily at his eyes. “Where…?”

“At least you're awake. We're here.” Kai repeated. “Grab your bag and let's go in.”

“Wow…I must have slept like a rock.” Tyson got out and went around to the trunk to get his bag. His stomach rumbled hungrily as he slung the bag over his shoulder, and he grinned sheepishly. “Can we grab something to eat, too?”

Kai sighed and nodded, smiling faintly to himself as Tyson ran ahead a little in his haste to get food. Some things never change…

After eating in the hotel's restaurant (which Tyson gave five stars), they made their way up to the suite that had been part of the prize. Tyson pushed open the door and walked in, flicking on the lights.

And as soon as he did, he had to stop and gaped at the room.

“Whoa. Fancy.”

Kai stopped next to him and surveyed his surroundings with a raised eyebrow. “It's nicer than Voltaire's taste in décor, that's for sure.”

“Is that a hot tub?!” Tyson dropped his bag and dashed over to check it out. Kai shook his head and went looking for the actual bed in the suite. The room the doors had opened into was one big one, with a marble-looking hot tub in one corner, a kitchenette in another, and the rest was a living area. There were two doors along one wall, and opening the first, Kai found the bathroom - which was huge. Opening the second, he found the bedroom, and inside were two queen-sized beds on either side of the room, with their own nightstands and dressing tables, and a small table and chairs set in the middle of the room. Striding into the large bedroom, Kai dropped his own bag on the nearest bed to the door and went back out to see what Tyson was doing.

His jaw nearly dropped open when he spotted the bluenette bent over, wriggling out of his shorts and trying to pull off his socks at the same time. He made an inarticulate noise and croaked, “Kinomiya, what the hell are you doing?”

Tyson yelped and fell over, doing a face plant on the floor. “OW! Kami-sama!” He sat up and glared at Kai. “Did you have to sneak up on me like that?! Ow, ow, ow!”

“I didn't sneak. I…never mind. What are you doing?”

“What's it look like? I'm going in the hot tub!” Tyson, still scowling, pulled off his socks and pushed himself back up on his feet, padding over to the tub in his boxers. “I'm not letting this thing go to waste, since we're here…”

“At midnight? I thought you were tired…”

“I was. But that nap in the car helped. Besides, this'll relax me more, and I'll sleep like a baby. You should come in, too, Kai. You could use some relaxation.” Tyson gingerly stepped into the bubbling, steaming pool of water. “O-oh! That's warm!”

“Ah, I really don't think…”

“Come on, Kai! I promise I won't tell anyone that you were actually relaxing and enjoying yourself while you were here, okay? Your reputation is safe with me.” Tyson teased, grinning cheekily at his friend.

Kai held his gaze solidly for about ten seconds before he had to break it and heave a sigh, giving in. He couldn't say no to those eyes. “Fine. But I'm not just stripping right here, like you did. I'll be right back.” He turned to go to the bedroom and find two towels in the bathroom while he was at it.

“Aww...why not?” Tyson complained before he realized what he was saying. The second he did, his face turned bright red, and he hastily tried to cover his slip up by continuing the statement, to make it sound like he was just teasing. “I mean, I'm sure the show would be worth it…you sexy beast, you.”

Kai nearly tripped over his own feet at that, his own face flushing. He spun around to stare at Tyson, dumbfounded for a moment, until he realized the bluenette was teasing him. He must be teasing…right?

“Tyson no baka! I swear you're going to get drowned when I come back.” He snarled in embarrassment, turning on his heel to find a moment of recovery in the bedroom while he changed.

An hour later, Kai pretty much had to carry Tyson to bed. The bluenette got relaxed, alright - so much so that he was falling asleep sitting up, and had Kai not opened his eyes at the sudden splash as Tyson's face hit the water, the bluenette just might have drowned, inhaling the water. At that point, Kai made Tyson get out of the hot tub and dry off.

With Tyson leaning on him all the way to the other bed, Kai dropped him off and rolled his eyes. “You're on your own, Kinomiya. You can get yourself ready for bed. I'm not your mother.”

“Thank Kami. I'd have hated you.” Tyson grunted, yawning widely and crawling up the bed to pull back covers and crawling under them. “G'night, Kai.”

“Yeah.” Kai shook his head again and flicked off the lights, making his way over to his own bed to finally get some rest.

He had a feeling that tomorrow, he was going to need it to keep up with his energetic rival.
