Me: Hi all! So, long story short, there was a technical problem which resulted in my first chapter being where my 7th chapter is supposed to be. Many thanks to V2113 for pointing this out! So here is the new and improved chapter 7 of This Feeling that I Have!

The next morning, Kimiko awoke to the birds singing, the sun shining, and Rai's arms.

"Morning sunshine. Sleep well?" Rai smiled gently at her.

"Very. You make a very good pillow." Kimiko blushed, still not used to their new relationship.

"Hey Rai, I never did thank you properly last night. You saved my life. Thank you." she said gratefully, tears forming in her eyes.

"Hey now, the badass Kimiko I know wouldn't cry this easily." Rai chided gently.

"Shut up." she stuck her tongue out at him.

"Kimiko," Rai said, turning serious, "I will always be there for you no matter what. You have nothing to thank me for, because if you die, then I die. Simple." he kissed her gently, not breaking contact until they needed to come up for air.

"Come on chica. If we stay in here too long, people will wonder what we're up to." Rai winked at her, which sent a firey blush to her cheeks. Kimiko took his hand and pulled him to his feet, and together they walked out into the sunshine.

"There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you!" Lilia smiled at Omi.

"I have actually been looking for you too 'Lia." Omi suddenly blushed, remembering their kiss last night. Knowing what he was thinking about, Lilia giggled and playfully pounced on him, sending them both tumbling to the grass. There they lay, just staring at each other in wonder, neither believing that they actually belonged to the other.

"What are you thinking of?" Omi asked softly as a gentle breeze rippled though the air.

"You. And me. Us." she slowly shifted closer to him until they were nose-to-nose.

"Is there an 'us'?" Omi whispered.

"Always." they closed the small distance between them and locked lips. Unlike last night's kiss, which had been passionate and spontaneous, this kiss was slower and sweeter. When they finally broke apart, Lilia laughed breathlessly.

"What?" Omi asked, a smile playing on his lips.

"I've never been kissed like that. It was...nice."Lilia admitted, a light blush spreading on her cheeks. Still smiling, she turned her body so that she was laying on her back, her long red hair splashed beneath her. Together they watched the clouds peacefully, not knowing that this would be one of the last peaceful moments before their lives were turned upside down by none other than Chase Young.

Me:Ahh, ok. Shorter than i wanted it to be, but hopefully a better ending. Foreshadowing, which isn't really necessary unless you haven't read the other 2 stories in the Thunder and Lightning series. Anyways, to everyone else who stayed along for the ride, a million thanks!
