Max sighed looking out the kitchen window, Kai had called for an extra practice since the beyblade season was starting up next week. He idly stirred the noodles in the pan; it was his turn to cook. He was the one other then Rei and Kai who could cook, well Tyson could but he always ate everything before it was even on the table, and Kenny...well lets just say he's not allowed in the kitchen anymore.
The blue-eyed boy placed the noodles in a bowel and looked out the window again, Kai was talking to Tyson, Max blinked when Tyson rolled his eyes and leaned up giving Kai a chaste kiss. Max had to snicker when the older boy's mouth snapped shut and blushed, the blonde boy looked around until he found who he was looking for.
Rei was sitting under the tree obviously laughing at the couple. Max's eyes softened, he was actually jealous of Tyson and Kai. Two years ago Tyson had confessed his love for Kai at a school dance, they had been together ever since. Max shut his eyes as he felt tears well up, he wished he could tell Rei how he felt, but he was too scared of how Rei would react or if he even went that way.
After a few big breaths Max went to the back door and yelled for the other to come in for lunch. As they group came in Max was putting things on the table humming to himself. “Wow this looks really good Max.” Rei said smiling, Max smiled back “Thanks Rei.” After they had sat down the all dug in to the beef and noodles and all the vegetables that Max had prepared. “Max this is soooo good!” Tyson said complimented filling his bowel again. A round of agreements came from everyone else at the table made Max blush.
“So Kai, what are you guys doing for your anniversary?” Kenny asked, it was coming up and they had said nothing of what they were doing. “Don't even try chief I've been trying to tell me what he's been planning but apparently it's a surprise.” Tyson said looking at his lover with suspicious eyes. Kai rolled his eyes, “I'll tell you later Kenny.” He said taking another bite. Tyson's mouth dropped, “How can you tell him and not me?” he asked shocked by Kai's answer. “Because I've told you a million times it's a surprise. Now don't worry about it alright?” he asked softly, the bluenette smiled and nodded his head.
Lunch was finished in silence and the dishes were quickly washed and put away. Kai and Kenny went outside to talk about the surprise and Rei just disappeared. Max and Tyson were in the living room talking about different things. “Hey Tyson…can I ask you something?” Max asked seriously looking over at his friend. Tyson stopped his giggling at once, “Sure Max what is it? Is something wrong?” he asked.
Max bit his lip, “Well kind of…see I'm…in love with someone.” He said lowering his head. “That's great! Who's the lucky girl…or guy.” Tyson asked, he saw the other boy blush and smiled softly, “Ok so who's the guy? Anyone I know?” Max nodded, “Anyone I'm good friends with?” Max blush darkened and he nodded again. “It's…someone here isn't it?” he asked Max again nodded. This is why Max told Tyson everything, the other boy was just good at things like this and it saved Max the embarrassment of saying anything.
“It's…Rei right?” he whispered not knowing where the black-haired boy had gone. Max looked up and nodded. “I knew it, I've seen you sneak glances at him during practice. Now I know the reason behind it.” Tyson smiled, “So are you going to tell him?” he asked getting serious. Max shook his head, “I don't know if he even likes guys, and I try to tell him but…I always chicken out.” Max said quietly, “I…just love him so much Tyson, and if he stopped being my friend because of my confession I just couldn't stand it!” Max was crying softly now. Tyson quickly wrapped his arms around him, rubbing his back and saying soothing words as Max cried on his shoulder.
“It's ok, shhh it's ok.” Tyson said, he looked up as the back door slid open and sighed in relief when he saw Kai and Kenny walk in. When he got two confused looks after they noticed Max Tyson mouthed “I'll tell you later.” and got two nods and then was left alone again. `Poor Maxie I wonder how long he's been holding this in.' Tyson thought, holding the crying boy closer.
Max finally pulled back rubbing his now red and puffy eyes. “T-thanks Tyson.” He said quietly, “For what?”, “Everything…you've listened and help me through so much. I don't even know how to repay you for your kindness.” He shook his head and sighed. “Hey look at me.” Tyson said gently, Max lifted his head and looked in his friend's eyes, “You're my best friend Maxie, and friends do things to help each other, don't interrupt me-“ he said when Max opened his mouth. “As I was saying friends do things to help each other, I listen to you whenever you need someone, and your always here willing to help and listen and whatever.
“You helped hold me together when I broke down after Kai joined up with the Demolition Boys in Russia almost two years ago. You do other things that you don't know about that helps me so much.” He smiled, “So don't ever put yourself down because you thing your not good enough, when you are.” He brought Max into another hug and he heard Max sniffle.
“Thanks Tyson, I couldn't ask for a better friend.” He said pulling back grinning. Tyson grinned, “No you couldn't because there's no friend greater than me! Now come on lets find the rest of the guys and pop in a movie….a scary movie.” He added as an after thought.” Max's eyes widened, he absolutely hated scary movies. Tyson just grinned and winked, this would be a good opportunity for him to do a little match making Tyson giggled to himself. He was such a genius at times.

“So that's why he was crying earlier?” Kai asked as he crawled into bed. Tyson sighed and nodded. “Yes that's exactly why, and I think Rei likes Max to.” Tyson said, getting into bed and automatically snuggled against Kai, whose arm went around his waist. “You think? We'll have to watch him, he's been sneaking off after practice to who knows where.” Kai frowned, “Come to think of it he's also been real secretive as well.”
“You've noticed to?” Tyson asked looking up, “I'll ask him about it tomorrow. Right now let's just go to sleep.” Kai said. “Alright, good night koi. Love you.” Tyson whispered, “Love you too.” Kai whispered falling asleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
“Star light, Star Bright, first star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.” Max said closing his eyes, his wish the last thing on his lips before falling asleep.
