We go back to the main story with Kai on this one, and don't worry there will be a part two to Matt and Kyle's story. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for reading the story this far. Its good to know that you guys enjoy the story. So let begin shall we... I was in a clearing, Looking around I saw nothing but snow covered hills and a forest of snow covered trees behind me. I walked up a hill and that's when I saw what looked like a palace made of ice. I walked and made my way to the palace, As I got on I saw ice sculptures of animals and people. I walked into the court yard and looked around, a low roar got my attention and I turned around. I saw the white tiger again, "I see you found your way here Little one, You must be close to my master." the tiger said. "Why am I here?, Am I dreaming?" I asked, "your not dreaming little one, this is a vision. A vision that will soon change your life" He said to me. "But why me?, what's so special about me?" I asked. "Soon you'll know, But for now you must go back" He said to me, I was about to speak when a gust of wind and snow circled me. "Soon little one very soon, My master is close to you." The voice of the tiger faded away. I awoke with a gasp for air, Breathing heavy I looked around. Snow was falling and all seemed like it should be, I walked to my bathroom and took a hot shower. I looked in the mirror and saw a lock of hair hanging near my left ear, I brought my left hand a pulled it back behind my ear. I then saw it, bringing my left hand up I saw the ring Andrew gave me. I smiled and remembered last night, I walked back to my room and changed into a red turtleneck that hung to my body. I put on a pair of white tight jeans and then slipped on my black boots. I made my way down stairs, and into the kitchen where I saw Lilly was already making breakfast. "Oh good morning Kai. Did you sleep well?" She asked. "Good morning, Ya I slept ok. How about you?" I asked, Lilly blushed and said " Uhh, Yes we did, I-I-I mean I did. Oh god!" She babbled on, I laughed and said "Lilly its alright, It good to know the old dogs Happy. That's all that matters to me." I said to her calming her down. "Thank you Kai, You don't know what this means to your father and me. Could you please get the OJ out for me please." I nodded and took out the OJ from the fridge. I brought it to the table and heard a gasp. "Kai! I-I-Is that a ring I see." Lilly said to me, I blushed and pulled my hand back behind me. "Umm, well yes. You see Andrew gave it to me last night." I blushed even more remembering last night. Lilly smiled and gave me a hug, "You love this man don't you?" she asked and I nodded. She gave me a hug and we talked about what happened last night, "Oh that's so romantic, You got yourself one great catch." Lilly smiled at me. We talked a laughed for about 30 minutes, then dad came in "Well sounds like you two have been talking about me." dad said to us. We laughed even more and I said "No dad we were just talking about my date last night and how lucky we are to have great guys in our lives." I said to him " Well I'm done, I'll see you guys tonight." I kisses them both and headed to Matt's house. I chose to walk since it was snowing. I walked down the street to Matt's, I knocked and Mike answered the door. "Morning Kai, Its good to see you." He smiled, "Hey Mike is Matt up yet?" I asked. He shook his head and said "No, he's asleep. He got in late last night." "Okay, I'll handle that." I walked in the kitchen and grabbed a cup of coffee said Good morning to Matt's mom and sister. I walked up the stairs and in to Matt's room, I saw him on the bed and made my way to him. But I wasn't prepared for what I saw, Matt was with Kyle his arm spooned him and his head rested on Kyle's shoulder. I dropped the mug I had in hand, It broke on the floor with a loud crash. Matt opened his eye's and turned to look at me. His eye's widen and his mouth hung open, "K-k-kai, wait let me explain." He started. I backed away slowly, not knowing what to do. Kyle began to wake up to and he saw me, His face went white. I turned and ran for it, I bolted down the stairs and out the door. "Kai! Wait!!" I heard Matt shouting. I ran as fast as I could, not knowing where I was headed or where I was going, Next thing I know I was at home. I went to my car and started it up, I pulled out the drive way and then Matt came to my window. "Kai!! Wait, Open the door, lets talk Please." He was shouting, I shook my head and was about to drive away but Matt jumped in front of my car to stop me. "Stop the car Kai, Lets talk about this" He said to me. I looked at him, not knowing what to do I put the car in park. He came to the passenger and said "Open the door Kai, Please we have to talk." He begged. I unlocked the door and he came in. We drove to the pond and just sat in the car. Silence filled the air, and I couldn't take it. I got out of the car and walked over to the edge of the Ice. Looking out on the surface as the wind blew snow from it I felt lost."Are you angry?" I heard Matt said from behind me, I didn't know what to say to him. What could I say to him. I turned and said "Do you love him?" "I think so." was all he could say to me. "How long has this been going on?" I asked, He looked down for a second and then said "Since last night". I nodded and looked out at the lake. "Are you angry at me?" He asked. I thought about it for a minute. "No, I'm not angry. Shocked yes, but not angry." I said to him, "He loves you too." Matt said to me. "Who?" I asked, "Kyle, He's in love with you. He's been in love with you ever since the 3rd grade." Matt said. "What? How do you know that?" I asked, "He told me last night, we talked for a long time before we went to my place." Matt said, "That's why he's been acting funny this whole time." He continued. I though about all the things Kyle did this past few days, It some how all made sense. I looked up and took a deep breath, "He's hurting for you Kai. The Same as me, all the times he's been mean to you all he wanted to do is hold you" Matt said. "Dose he know about Andrew?" I asked, "Yes, I told him about it last night." Matt said to me. "Let's go" I said to him, He looked at me and nodded. We got in my car again and we drove back to his house. We got out and headed back in and I said to Matt "I want to go talk to him, could you wait here please." I asked. He nodded his head and I made my way up to Matt's room. I knocked and there was no answer, I opened the door and went in. Sitting on the bed Kyle looked up to see me standing, I walked over and sat beside him on the bed. "I'm sorry I ran away like that." I said to him "No, I shouldn't have been here.", "Kyle for once in your life don't argue with me."He smiled a little and nodded " Matt told me about what you guys talked about last night." I said to him. "Why didn't you tell me Kyle?" I asked, "I don't know, I guess I was to afraid of what you'd say to me." He said to me."I've wanted to say so much to you but I could never bring myself to telling you how I fell." he said to me, "All the years I've kept my feelings for you a secret, I wanted to tell you be I never could." He continued. "Sometimes when I see you in the halls all I want to do is tell you how beautiful you look." he said with a smile. "Kyle, I'm sorry but I can't return your feelings. As much as I want to I can't." I said to him, He nodded and said "Matt told me about the guy. Are you happy with him?" He said. "Yes, I'm happy. I love him, I never felt this way about anyone." I said to him. "If you love him and are happy then I'll back off." He said to me, "If this guy ever hurts you, I'll kick his ass." Kyle said to me. "Your just like Matt you know that." I smiled, "and I see your just as bad with rooms." I said to him. He scratched the back of his head with a goofy grin, "Well I'm a guy after all, and not just a guy I'm a jock that's what we do." He said. I shook my head and told him to get a shower and come down stairs. I walked down and saw that Matt was talking with his sister, I felt something squeeze my leg and looked down to see a 2 year old holding my right leg. I smiled and bent down, "Well hello there Ashley, Do you remember me?" I asked to toddler. She smiled and I didn't know if that meant she did know me or not, I picked her up and kissed her cheek. "Have you been a good girl?" I asked, She giggled and squealed. I walked with her into the living room. "So that's where you've been you little devil, I've been looking for you" Jasmine said to her daughter. I held her and kissed her cheek, She squealed and giggled as I handed her over to her mother. I walked to Matt and said "I talked to him, He's just like you. He told me if Andrew ever hurts me he'll kick his ass." I smiled, "And I told him that I can't return his feelings, He took it well I think." I continued. "Is he going to be alright?" He asked "Ya I'm going to be ok." Kyle said from the stairs, "Is there anything to eat around here?" He asked. I smile and so did Matt, we ate and talked about what we were going to do today. We agreed to go skiing with the gang and I went home to change my clothes, After putting on my black snow boarding pants I went to grab my white cross jacket. I picked them up and we headed to the lodge, Matt showed Kyle how to ski and Kelly looked happy with Jack. Jen and Johnny were goofing off, We skied for a few hours. Taking a break we went to the lodge, I walked over to the fire place and looked at the love seat near the fire place. I smiled and remembered last night. I felt two arms circle me and pull me into a warm hard body, I turned my head and saw Andrew smiling at me. I smiled back at him as he leaned down to kiss me, his lips parted and his tongue slipped in to my mouth. He held me in this passionate kiss for 5 minutes. I sighed as he moved away, "You look wonderful today, Were you skiing?" He asked. I nodded and we sat down, "So did you enjoy yourself last night?" He asked. "Yes I did, thank you." He and I talked for an hour about what life was life for us back then, the gang came over and were asking questions. I blushed and shook my head at them, but Andrew smiled and gave my hand a squeeze. That's when all hell broke lose, we all heard a grumbling sound then the lodge started to shake. We looked out the window and saw an avalanche heading straight to the lodge, People were screaming and running out the lodge Andrew grabbed me and my friends weren't far behind. We went out and saw the avalanche was almost on us, Johnny held Jen tight and Jack did the same to Kelly. Matt shielded Kyle with his body and Andrew stepped in front of me, he held his hand up and soon the avalanche slowly stopped. Andrew was glowing with a strange ice blue light, He's blue eyes glowed bright and hair was floating as if by some unknown force. All I could do was look at him shocked and amazed. What is he? How did he do that? Where the questions I had no answer to. There has to be some reason for this, No one saw what Andrew did. I turned and walked away heading to my car. I got in a drove away to the pond, I needed time to think. Time to figure out what happened back at the lodge, I felt a nudge on my hand and looked back to see the tiger in my dreams. I walked back and tripped over a log, scrambling to my feet I looked at it. "Y-y-your real, Oh my god I've gone crazy. This is a dream right" I said to the tiger, "No little one this is not a dream nor is it a vision." He said to me. "How are you? What's your name?" I asked the big cat. "My master has named me Kazuki. He has asked me to watch over you, for you little one are in danger." Kazuki said to me. "What kind of danger am I in?" I asked the big cat. And Before he could answer we heard several growls behind us, We turned and saw a pack of gray wolves. "Kai, Get behind me." Kazuki said to me, The wolves growled and Kazuki stepped forward. He roared and bore his fangs, I looked at these I could do to help the big cat. I found a thick tree branch and held it up. Three of the wolves lunched there attack on Kazuki and the other three came and circled me. One of them made his move, I swung and hit him on the face. The beast yelped, then another took hold of the branch and took it from me. I backed away from them, one jumped and was about to attack me. I felt something in me shift, my green eyes felt like there were ablaze. I thrusted my hand forward and out of the ground tree roots struck the wolf hard sending him in to the air. I felt my body weaken and I felt dizzy, The other wolves looked at me and made there move. Before they could get to me a beam of blue light hit them and they were frozen in a block of ice. I turned and saw Andrew draw a ice blade and helped Kazuki fight the three remaining wolves. My vision went fuzzy and a Passed out. When I came to I saw my dad looking over me, Lilly by his side. My friends were close by too, I was back home. "How did I get here?" I asked bringing everyone's attention to me. They all come over to me asking me I was alright, "I'm fine, but how did I get here?" "Andrew brought you here." my dad said to me. "Where is he?" I asked. "He said he had something important to take care of, But he said he would come by to see how your doing." Lilly said to me. I nodded and sat up, "I think I'm going to take a shower. I said to them, "Alright, Well see you tomorrow then." Jen said and they all left. I walked up stair and took a hot shower, I put on a white sweater and a pair of back jeans. "I'm going to go for a drive, I'll be back in an hour or two." I said to my Dad and Lilly. "Are you sure your ok Champ, We could go to the hospital and have you checked out." My dad said to me. "No, I'm ok dad. I'll see you guy's later ok." I said to them, I gave both of them a kiss and headed out. I drove around back to the pond. I looked around and saw the root of the tree that sent the wolf flying. I heard a twig break and turned to see Kazuki. "What are you doing out here Little one? You should be resting." the tiger said to me. "Kazuki who is Andrew? What is he?" I asked. The tiger looked down and then looked back up to me. "I'm afraid that my master is the only one who could tell you that." The tiger said to me. "How is your master?" I asked. "That would be me." Said a voice behind me. I didn't need to turn to see who it was, I already knew who it is. I turned and saw Andrew in a white robe with a ice sword around his waist. He's gaze was of sorrow and fear. "My name is not just Andrew, Its Prince Andrew for I am the Snow Prince." To Be Continued...
