Kenzi x Vincent
Chapter one:
Second Chance and Meeting
Five minutes pass and after being shot by either Butch or Richie Gecko and seemingly dying, Vincent starts breathing and clutching his hurting and bleeding gut. It isn't until he hears himself moaning in pain that he soon realizes the bullets didn't kill him.
Inside Vincent's Mind
How did this not kill me? Why am I not dead?
Usually when you are shot multiple times you just lay there and die but I didn't.
*I then think about the miracle Jules talked about*
Maybe this could be the miracle Jules and I experienced and saw.
*Then I realize that I denied it*
But I denied the miracle and kept on with my drug addicted and hit man life.
Then karma bit me in the ass and I think Butch shot me. Not too sure.
I remember the Gecko Brothers. Seth and Richie that is. Nothing else.
*I then think about what an asshole I really am*
Well serves me right for being such an asshole. But then again could this mean that God is giving me a second chance to redeem myself? But then again why me? Why me of all people?
Why?
*I think of the people I hung out with*
Hmmmm...maybe it was because of those I hung out with.
Yeah maybe I was hanging out with the wrong people and it led me down the wrong path of life. That could be it.
Hmmmm...Maybe it is best I change the group of people I hang with although I did enjoy Mia Wallace. What a beauty but then again she was probably helping me go down the wrong path. I mean think about it Vince she almost overdosed on cocaine do you seriously want to relive that again and kill more people?
*I look at my gun sitting on my table*
Maybe it is best that I hang up the gun, drugs, and hit man life all around and just be myself.
*I smile until I see a picture of my dad but nod my head*
Yeah dear old dad is right. This isn't the gateway to the ""good life"". Besides Vic is dead and do I seriously want to go the same way he did?
Fuck no! It isn't my time!
*I clutch my gut as I stand up slowly*
Owwww! I really need to get these bullets out!
Yeah probably should head to the hospital!
Outside Vincent's mind
Vincent staggers to his car, gets in, and pulls out of his driveway. He heads straight to the hospital in order to get these bullets removed before they could do further damage.
Meanwhile...
After fifteen minutes have passed, Kenzi opens her eyes slowly and looks around for either Dyson or Bo. Neither of them are there. Kenzi looks around and ponders to herself.
Inside Kenzi's mind
Why isn't Bo here? She's usually here for me. Dyson too. What's happened?
*I realize that I have been given a second chance to life as it wasn't my time to go*
Wow! This is cool! I sacrifice myself yet I am given a second chance! Awesome!
*I get sad when I realize Bo and the others have forgotten about me and I must move along*
Well I guess Bo and the others have completely forgotten about me and moved on. I suppose it is time I quit being a con artist and thief and instead wander until I find a new best friend.
It may take a long time but so be it, I was never meant to stick to one group of friends and even after I am brought back from the dead Bo and the others have forgotten about me after a while.
*I ponder about who could possibly be my new best friend*
Hmmmm...who could possibly be my new best friend?
I mean I want someone who is straight like me. Yeah that'd be nice since I am into guys.
I hope I find someone!
Well I guess I could travel to the U.S. as it wouldn't hurt to move and be out of my comfort zone and get a new one. Although I might be shy but still it wouldn't hurt. Besides I already have a plane ticket now I need to pack my stuff and move.
Outside Kenzi's mind
Kenzi starts packing her belongings in order to be ready to go to the airport and depart to the U.S. in order to begin a newer life. She is sad that Bo and the others forgot about her but she is relieved that she can still find a best friend.
Meanwhile...
Vincent has finally gotten the bullets removed from his gut without leaving or doing any damage. He is kept in the hospital over night in order to be monitored in case there is a change in his condition.
While he is staying in the hospital over night, Kenzi finally arrives into the U.S., gets granted citizenship, then takes another plane in order to arrive to LAX.
She finally arrives to LAX then grabs a taxi cab and goes straight to Los Angeles. She finally arrives to L.A. and checks into a hotel for the night.
However unbeknownst to her, the hospital where Vincent is staying is about 15 minutes from the hotel. Kenzi sits on her bed and thinks to herself.
Inside Kenzi's mind
Well it is time to start my new life here in Los Angeles. I am liking it so far but I really hope to find a friend and I hope to have a new start and a good one at that.
Outside Kenzi's mind
Kenzi sits back in the couch and turns the t.v. on to see what's on. Surprisingly she finds herself watching the 1943 film "Frankenstein meets the Wolf Man". She says to herself, "I've never watched an old black and white horror film before so I hope this is good.".
Meanwhile back at the hospital...
Vincent is skimming through the channels and finds nothing that interests him until he runs across the 1941 film "Hold That Ghost". He says to himself, "Oh my god! This is my childhood. Hmm let's see what is after it." then he checks the guide and sees the 1942 film "Who Done It?" and after it the 1953 film "Stalag 17". He says, "Wow i'm really lucky tonight." and sits back.
Back in Kenzi's room...
Kenzi just sits back and thinks to herself, "I really enjoy this movie but I would rather have a friend or someone watch it with me. It'd be more exciting." then she sees the transformation scene and says to herself, "Wow. That's so amazing how they did those make up effects back then. Just amazing. I hope I meet a new friend tomorrow as I really don't like to be alone.". She just sits back and watches as the Wolf Man stalks the police officer and kills him.
Meanwhile at the hospital...
Vincent is watching the scene where Ferdie and Camille are dancing and thinks to himself, "Wow that is a romantic dance scene and funny at the same time. It would be nice to have a romantic dance. I hope I have that dance with someone and have fun with that same someone. That someone cannot be Mia Wallace. I do not want any dealings with her or anyone like her or associated. I guess it is good to hang with new people. I hope I find someone who is a good influence. I really hope so. I am kinda lonely but I should start out with whoever as friends." and laughs when Ferdie falls into the piano. He says to himself, "It would be funnier if someone was here with me.".
Hours later...
Both Kenzi and Vincent are sleeping and thinking about what tomorrow holds. What they do not know is that they are right near eachother.
...
The very next morning...
Kenzi decides to go out to get herself a cup of coffee as she usually would do. While she is going out, Vincent is discharged from the hospital and decides to take a walk and get a breath of air.
It isn't too long until they are on the same sidewalk.
Kenzi is drinking her coffee and looking at her phone when suddenly she bumps into Vincent. She says, "Oh."
Vincent says, "Excuse me miss."
Kenzi who spilled coffee on him says, "Oh my god i'm so sorry sir." and rubs it off the best she can
Vincent says, "It's alright miss?"
Kenzi says, "Oh where are my manners? My name is Kenzi." then extends her hand out for a handshake
Vincent shakes her hand and says, "Kenzi it's nice to meet you. My name is Vincent."
Kenzi says, "Nice to meet you Vincent."
Vincent says, "Do you want me to buy you another coffee?"
Kenzi says, "If you don't mind Vincent."
Vincent says, "Not at all."
Then they both walk together toward the coffee shop
Inside Kenzi's mind...
Wow! I just met a nice guy and he offered to buy me another coffee!
He could be my new best friend or even more!
*I get wide eyed for a minute*
Ok Kenzi you never even saw this guy before in your life so just start out as friends then work it up if it is meant to be.
*I smile as I look at him*
My god he is handsome!
*I then remember self discipline*
Ok Kenzi remember friendship first then romance!
Outside Kenzi's mind...
Kenzi tries to resist the urge to hold Vincent's arm since she has fell head over heels for him but she remembers friendship first relationship later if it is meant to be.
Inside Vincent's mind...
Wow! This girl seems very nice so far! She could be the one I have been looking for.
*I then remember self discipline*
Ok ok Vince you're getting ahead of yourself! Just be her friend then see if it is meant to be!
*Then I shrug*
Eh what the hell! I'm buying her a new coffee so I can bravely say that she and I are becoming friends.
*I look at her and get mesmerized by her beauty*
She is so beautiful! Oh my god!
Ok Vince friendship first!
Outside Vincent's mind
Vincent and Kenzi go inside the coffee shop and he buys her a new fresh coffee. Then they sit down and talk.
Kenzi says, "Thanks Vincent."
Vincent asks, "For what?"
Kenzi says, "Buying me a new coffee silly."
Vincent says, "Any time."
Kenzi asks, "So Vincent how's it like living in Los Angeles?"
Vincent shrugs and says,"Eh it's alright. Just has a few sketchy areas but it's cool."
Kenzi asks, "Sketchy? Like what do you mean?"
Vincent says, "Gangs and Crime. I don't do that though. I use to but I have decided to put those days in the past and move on with my life. How long have you lived in L.A.?"
Kenzi says,"Since last night."
Vincent asks, "Where did you live before?"
Kenzi says, "Toronto, Canada."
Vincent says, "Oh wow! So you're brand new here."
Kenzi says, "Yeah pretty much."
Vincent asks, "You have any place to stay?"
Kenzi says, "A hotel room."
Vincent says, "Eh a hotel is no place to live."
Kenzi says,"It's all I can afford at the moment. Tonight i'll be searching for another one to stay the night as I do not want to be on the streets."
Vincent feeling bad for her, says, "Hey why don't I help you move."
Kenzi asks, "Move?"
Vincent says, "Yeah move."
Kenzi asks, "Where the fae am I going to move?"
Vincent says,"To my house where the fuck did you think I was going to move you?" and giggles a bit
Kenzi asks, "Why are you moving me into your house?"
Vincent says, "Because I need a roommate and you need a place to live. So why not."
Kenzi asks, "You really mean that?"
Vincent says, "Every word."
Kenzi says, "Wow Vincent! You're a great friend!"
Vincent says, "Well come on it's the right thing to d-You consider me a friend?"
Kenzi says, "Of course."
Vincent says, "Thanks Kenzi."
Kenzi says, "Don't mention it."
Inside Kenzi's mind
Wow! Just wow! He is going to move me into his house! He is such a great guy!
I love hi-
No no no wait a minute Kenzi he is just a friend remember he is just a handsome, good looking, friend who you will get to know.
Outside Kenzi's mind
Kenzi asks, "Vincent can I hug you?"
Vincent says, "Sure."
Then they both get up and hug eachother
Inside Vincent's mind
I'm really beginning to think she and I just bonded a friendship! Oh my dad will be proud!
I know he'll tell me to be nice to her in which I will.
*I look at her*
So far she's the sweetest thing I ever met!
*I smile*
Outside Vincent's mind
They stop hugging and Vincent says, "Kenzi how about we go to your hotel room and start packing your things."
Kenzi says, "Ok if you don't mind."
Vincent says, "I don't a bit."
Then they go out, get into Vincent's car, and drive off to the hotel she is staying at. Kenzi now feels real safe and less lonely. Vincent feels the same way.
