Just my Luck

Chapter one

Just my luck, just my luck, I sighed again. A minute ago we were all sitting cozily at Takao's house, drinking warm tea; and the next thing I knew I was in a deserted island, alone with the ice king himself Kai Hiwatari. I huffed. This was all because of Takao's stupid ideas. It was his fault I, we are stuck in this stupid, desolate island. I wonder if they even know that we're still alive… But hey! I must admit I've always fantasized about being stuck in a deserted island with a cute boy. What? He is cute, but then again Rei is too. Kyaa. Oh hell… get a hold of yourself Hilary. It all started that night at Takao's house…

"A vacation!" I shrieked, my eyes glistened in excitement.

"Yes Hilary, a vacation," the chief repeated, rubbing his ears in the process.

"Sorry," I whisper as I sit back down. I turned to the rest of the BBA team, "So where are we going?"

"I got my mom to book us in one of them cruise ship thingies!" Max announced grinning widely.

"Cruise S-ship?" I stutter in excitement as if to believe this is really happening to me.

Takao nodded in agreement.

"One week of non-stop fun…" Rei trailed on.

Takao beamed as he turned to the last member of their team, "What about you? Are you coming Kai?"

Kai opened one eye and replied, "Yeah sure,"

Takao smiled as he spoke up, "It's agreed then! To the one week cruise ship we go!"

"Yeah!"

I rolled my eyes at the memory. Everything was going so well. But then a storm had to hit. Makes me wonder if heaven hates me. I frowned.

"Cheers!"

Everybody raised their glass. I smiled. Everybody looks so happy. It's nice to have a vacation once in a while. I turned to look at the members of the BBA team. Takao was busy gobbling as much amount of food he could fit in his big mouth. Max was busy relaying his jokes to Rei who was laughing hard. And then there was Kai, he was the same as always, he had the same emotional look on his face and showed absolutely no interest as usual. I watched him stand up.

"I'm taking a walk outside," He announced flatly as he made his way out the door.

"Be back soon!" I heard Takao call. "They say there's a raging storm outside!"

I elbowed the chief. "Doesn't that Kai care if he might actually get sick?"

The chief shook his head, "Nah, he's always like that, pretends he doesn't care, when he actually does,"

"I see," I murmur back, as my gaze fell toward the door. I felt myself get up, "I'm gonna get some air,"

"Ok then Hilary!" I hear Rei call after me. "Be careful!" I smiled as I went my way out. It's nice that the guys care for me.

I made my way down the deck. The wind was blowing hard today and it was raining cats and dogs. Who would want to take a walk outside in this weather? Oh yes, Kai would. I walked some more, my hands never leaving the wooden interiors of the ship, heck I was practically hugging it! From afar I could make out Kai's figure. I slowly walked over to him.

"H-hey Kai?" I started, my voice a little jittery. What? Who wouldn't get scared? Just looking at him at times makes you want to scream bloody murder.

"What are you doing here?" Kai asked, giving me one of his I'm-so-anti-social-so-stay-out-of-my-life look.

I swallowed, "I… um… just thought you'd get sick if you stayed out longer, in this rain…"

He turned his back at me as he rested his shoulders on the railing, "I'm capable of taking care of myself you know, it's you who should be going back inside,"

I felt a vein pop in my forehead. He did not just say that! Has he no sense of gratitude! He should even thank me for worrying about his sorry behind! I put my hands behind my hips and opened my mouth to speak,

"Hey! I was only—" I was cut off when the boat shook and made a violent right turn. My eyes widened as I was lifted off my feet and flung over the railings to the cold waters below.

"Hilary!" I heard Kai scream after me.

"Oh no! Hilary fell overboard!" I heard Max yell. "Kai! What are you doing!"

As I felt the cold waters make contact with my body, I squeezed my eyes shut. Is this the end? I don't want to die yet! I haven't even kissed who I'd kiss yet! I want to do so much more things! I breathed my last breath as my body gave up and began sinking. Oh God, this is really happening! I'm sorry for all the bad things I've done! I didn't mean to boss Takao around! Honest! Oh God, I wish I end up in heaven. And also—I didn't get to finish as a pair of warm arms enveloped my body.

"Hilary?" I felt somebody shake my shoulders. "Hey Hilary!" The person screaming my name sounded desperate. What the hell is he doing! I find myself cursing. Can't he understand that if I am going to die I would probably want to die in peace! I opened my eyes to tell the person to shut up. I opened my mouth to speak but it had seemed like something had stuck itself on my throat as I met with Kai's usually cold eyes. Which were surprisingly mixed with concern.

"K-kai..?" I mumble coughing out salt water as he sat me up. I swallowed as a tinge of pink made its way to my cheek.

"Are you alright?" He asked scanning my body, looking for any sign of injuries.

"Y-yes," I stuttered as I rub my aching head, "W-what happened? Where are we?"

Kai averted his gaze from me as he stared at the sea before us. "You fell overboard and I had to jump in after you and now we're stuck in this deserted island, miles from home,"

"Wow, that sure made me feel better," I murmur as I squeeze the water out of my wet clothes.

He raised his head as he scanned the sky, "It'll get dark soon, we should probably find shelter and dry our clothes," He tried to stand up but failed miserably as he winced.

"What's the matter?" I asked, my eyes widened as I saw a large gash on his left leg. "Oh no Kai!" I fell kneeling behind him as I examined his wound.

"I must have got it when we were floating our way here," He explained, gritting his teeth. He tried standing up again and this time succeeded, he proceeded on making his way towards the forest.

"Hey! You shouldn't force it!" I shout after him.

He turned his head to glare at me, "This is nothing! Now come on! We have to find shelter or do you want to catch a cold?"

I sighed. He sounds like my mother. I sighed again and went to follow him into the dark scary forest.

"Hilary. Hey," I started from my thoughts as Kai shoved a twig into my empty unsuspecting hands.

I raised my eyes, "What do you want me to do with this thing?"

He pointed to the fire he made. We were now seated inside a cave. A small cave. Sheesh… its not like I can choose which cave to stay. My attention went back to Kai's fire. Oh he grilled some fish… Hey wait… where did he get the fish? Never mind! My stomach has been buzzing for food hours ago! I smiled and whispered a soft thank you as I dug into our dinner.

"You should go to sleep," He started, his emotionless eyes never leaving the crackling fire between us.

I raised my head, "What about you?"

"I'm going to stand guard," He stood up and walked to the outer side of the cave limping.

"Isn't your leg still a little sore?" I ask as my eyebrows furrowed in worry.

He turned his head to speak, "I told you I'm fine, it stopped bleeding minutes ago anyway," He answered flatly. "Now go to sleep, No harm will come," He assured.

I felt that sneaky blush creep its way to my cheek again. Who knew he could be so kind and caring? I lay down on the hard cave floor and tried to get some sleep.

A/N: A stupid ending for a chapter I know. Anyways… I intended for this to be a KaixHilary fic all the way… but I just couldn't bear not to put the whole team in! Especially cute little Rei! Anyway I'll try to put more fluff in there… even though its hard to imagine Kai getting fluffy with anybody.. but I will try! I'm sorry if they are OOC! Anyways… please Read and review! Remember! A review is food for an author's soul! (What the hell is that!) Thankies!
