Lunar Chronicles

Cyborgs

Kai:

Kai stared at Cinder. He didn't see this coming.

The pretty girl in front of her is a cyborg. Half human, half robot android thing.

'Cool' he thought but immediately chastised himself. She wasn't a toy.

Kai regained his posture.

"Will you show me?" He asked.

He immediately felt like an idiot.

Cinder laughed, she sounded cute when she did that.

"You want me to show you?" She asked.

Kai nodded his head.

"Well I'm sorry Kai but I'm not going to undress for you."

Kai went red.

"Well at least show me what you don't have to undress." He said to cover it up.

Cinder sighed.

She took of her glove. And there was a metal hand instead of one with flesh.

She looked up at Kai.

"My hand, my leg, and half my head." She whispered.

Kai looked at her, she was beautiful. And the metal parts just added to that.

He had the sudden urge to kiss her but he restrained.

Something must have shown because Cinder immediately put her glove on.

"You're not the only one hiding secrets." Kai said.

Cinder raised an eyebrow.

"My dad, he's a business man," he said.

"My name is Kaito Rikan,"

Cinder gasped.

"You're a billionaire." She said.

Kai looked down and nodded.

Then suddenly someone came out from the back of the store.

"Cinder, oh my god. Is that a boy?"

Cinder nodded and Kai laughed.

"Hello," he said to the girl.

"Hi, my name is Iko, are you and Cinder dating?" She asked.

Kai blushed and Cinder stepped on Iko's foot.

"Ow, is that your metal one?" She wailed.

Cinder smiled. Making Kai wanted to kiss her again.

"No Iko, me and Kai are just friends." She said emphasis given friends.

Kai cringed. He wanted them to be more than friends, but his I'm a billionaire speech didn't make Cinder like him in any other way.

Kai thought back to the conversation they had. Of course she wasn't attracted to him for his money…. She was a freakin rich person too.

Kai felt like slapping himself, why couldn't he like a girl who would like him back in a heart beat. No, he had to like a cyborg girl who had absolutely no intention of being more then friends with him.

"Kai, I have to work now." Cinder said, bringing him back to reality.

"Umm. Yea of course." Kai said feeling like an idiot.

"Can I accompany you tomorrow to the store agin?" He asked.

Cinder seemed taken aback.

"You want to be seen with me?" She asked.

"What's wrong with you?" Kai asked, completely lost.

Cinder shook her head.

"Sure why not," She said.

She gave Kai a big smile.

Kai melted and stared at her.

She was the prettiest girl in the world.

"Love.." Iko said, sighing,

Kai blushed furiously.

Cinder rolled her eyes.

"I'm going, bye." She said.

"B-" he said before the door closed on his face.

He was standing outside the door with Iko starting at him.

"You really like her don't you? " she asked him.

Kai blushed.

"Is it that easy to tell?" He asked.

"Well you didn't go running when you found out she was a cyborg and you go all gushy when she smiles," Iko answered.

Kai's blush deepened.

"Don't tell her," he said to her.

"I won't. I'll let you tell her yourself." She said and went in.

Kai started walking towards school.

He told Torin, his butler and friend to wait for him there.

He took out his phone and dialled Wolf's number.

When he didn't respond he thought back.

He seemed very interested in Cinder's friend.

Kai smiled at himself and continued walking.

Everyone seems to be finding love.

In the distance, a person was watching him.

"We have a problem." He said into a phone.

"What?" Asked a raspy voice from the other end.

"A boy seems to be taking and interest in our target."

He waited for a second, but then the voice answered.

"Then take them both."
