Cake And Kai Hiwatari

By Talis Quia

When entering a room, there are two different kinds of people, some say: "Here I am!" And the others: "There you are!"

Chapter One

I was sitting on the ground of Kai's room. Somehow I always ended up there, no matter what I did or why. It must have been the aura of the room.

The silence was unbearably. Kai was at it again, reading one of those fat books, I wouldn't be able to even start. It must have had the weight of a ton. I stared at the cover, squinting to see what the book was called. I couldn't read the title.

"Kai, do you like cake?" I asked out of curiosity. He raised his eyebrows and stared at me.

"You're asking me if I like cake?"

"Uhuh."

"Yeah I do." He replied and continued reading.

"I do too. Do you know what happens to people who eat cake?" I asked, just because. He put down the book, glared at me with that scary eyes of his and cocked his head to the right.

"Eventually they die." He answered calmly. I blinked and grinned at his drop-dead logical and morbid answer. Just gotta love the guy.

"Uhuh. And do you know what happens to people who don't eat cake?" I asked.

"…wha?" He asked after a while. "What happens to people who don't eat cake?"

"Yeah, do you know what happens to people who don't eat cake?"

"They die too." He stated.

"No."

"What do you mean, no?"

"Well…they won't eat cake."

"What?"

"I asked what happens to people who don't eat cake – they won't eat cake!" I said triumphantly.

"You know what?" He said frowning. "You're stupid."

"Only when I'm with you." I replied grinning.

"Now that's just great." He muttered and continued reading.

"Kai?" I asked, plainly to annoy him. Lately he started to handle my attacks of idiocy much too calmly for my liking. Just a month ago he'd have kicked me out of his room for talking like that. Two weeks ago he actually told me to go away and last week he just groaned in frustration. What was up with that guy? Did he begin to get used to it? How could anyone possibly get used to me!

"Hn?" His eyes moved right and left and right and left and right and left – next page – right and left and right and left and… - he turned the page – right and left and right and left – to right always slightly slower than to left. Watching him was fun. He was always acting so serious and intelligent that it made me want to…watch. I didn't know why, really.

"I think goofy sounds goofy." He stopped reading again and looked at me, not actually looking annoyed or anywhere near it. He was just sort of staring. It was odd.

"Indeed?" He asked plainly, continuing that freaky staring, which made me feel slightly uncomfortable.

"Yeah, what do you think?" I asked. He suddenly smirked. I was confused. Was there anything amusing?

"I think…" He started drawling. "That it's rather interesting how you come here every single afternoon to just lie on the ground, thinking up unimportant stuff."

"Oh well…I think that it's even more interesting that you let me stay here every single afternoon just to lie on the ground and tell you unimportant stuff."

"Yeah, that's rather interesting too." Kai admitted still smirking. "I don't know the answer." He suddenly chuckled. "Oh, but maybe I do know the answer…" He put away his heavy book and leaned back, crossing his arms like he always does when he's concentrating on something. "But I certainly won't tell you."

"Why?" I asked in surprise.

"Because…" He said in delight. "You are you."

"You're evil." I groaned. "It's always like that, once you actually talk to someone you're getting all hateful and aloof."

"Really?" He asked truly surprised. "That true?"

"You don't even notice it!" I shouted in shock. Now that was weird. "Dude, once you open your mouth you're as distant as England!"

"Oh…" He made, looking troubled by what I had told him. "Tyson, I never meant to…" He started but suddenly cut off staring perplexed at me. "That's why…" He never ended that sentence either, staring wide-eyed at me.

"That's why what?" I asked fed up that he left me hanging.

"Why you didn't notice." He ended, leaving me with almost as much information as I had before.

"Why I didn't notice what?" I asked annoyed, that he wouldn't just explain himself.

"Nothing…" He whispered and somehow sounded sad.

"Hey, I did notice nothing!" I declared fiercely. "I notice it everyday, you see? Everyday I notice all over again that there's nothing in my head."

"Ow, you're giving me a headache." Kai said, smiling weakly.

"Good." I said finally. "Now go get to reading or else I might start believing that you're socialising with your minors." He snorted and really took his book to continue reading. What a guy – simply terrifying in his own sweet way.

Only after a few minutes did I realize that he wasn't in fact continuing with his book, but merely staring over the book at me. That was even odder than the rest of all the things he had said and done that very afternoon.

"You're scary." I said.

"Hn." He only continued staring with that intense expression on his face, of which I didn't know what to make, so I simply stared right back.

"Stop it." I demanded.

"No." He answered, but his answer should have been meant in a funny way, yet he said it sternly.

"Why?" I whined because I didn't know what else I could do.

"Because I now know why you never noticed." He stated calmly, not smiling nor smirking, merely staring at me, watching me so intensely that I wanted to get out of the room.

"Did I do something wrong?" I asked finally, not able to bear having his blood red eyes on me for much longer.

"Yes." He replied calmly. "You made me want to look at you." He sighed. "I want to warn you Kinomiya, it was a big mistake of you to catch my eye."
