A/N: So yeah...this one I thought of while lying in bed, trying (and failing) to sleep. It's the first in a seires of connected one-shots. So, if you like it, put this on your alert, cuz more will be coming. ...As soon as a figure out what more to write about.

#1 - Why Laugh Now?

Netspeak. Chatspeak. Whatever the hell you want to call it - it pisses me off. I hate it with a flaming passion that consumes my soul.

And that's why she has to go.

She may be talented. She may be absolutely gorgeous. And she may be the absolute best when it comes to...what it is that she...does... (A/N: Alright, yeah...I had to...change this part. Otherwise it makes the girl come off as...skanky, and Chad come off as a total perve. =P AND if I have it this way, then I can give it a lower rating.) But Dammit...Kelly...no, Kathy....No....Kayla! That's her name! And dammit, she just can't go through a conversation without saying L.....o....L.

Every time she says it, or writes it, or texts it, I want to take a pin to that blonde balloon she calls her head.

Those stupid three letters just...ugh....Every. Single. Time. I hear them, I start to grit my teeth, my hands clench into fists and I just...

And this Kayla, she's one of those people that uses it in actual conversation. Dammit! If you're talking to someone, then they'll hear you if you laugh out loud! And it's not like it o c c a s i o n a l l y slips out. She uses it all the time.

And she seemed so....so promising. But then I got a text from her. I actually spoke to her. And it all came crashing down.

And you know who's decided to rub it in my face? That's right ladies and gentleman! Little miss bright ole beam of Sonny sunshine Monroe!

Yeah, she may act like she isn't trying to rub it in my face, But every time I talk to her, she never says it. Every time we IM, it's never there. I even looked through all the texts I've gotten from her - nothing.

That just makes it even harder to be with this girl gor another second.

Hey...Kayla, we need to talk.

Wut is it babe? lol

Ugh...Just....meet me Starbucks in 20, ok?

lol. Sure.

Damn her.

Soon enough, she'll have no need to laugh anymore...
