Match Made In Outcast Heaven
Chapter 2 I Don't Freak You Out?
By Sound Of Raindrops On Water
Once they defeated the monster everyone went back to Tommy's place. Everyone went back to the conversations that they had been having earlier.
"Hey, Blake do whatever you want to tonight. I gotta bounce", Hunter said.
"What? Why? It's Friday, we don't have to work or anything", Blake said wondering why on earth his brother hated the idea of having a social life.
"You know I have my reasons…I'll see you tomorrow aiight?"
"Aiight."
"Kira can I talk to you for a sec?"
"Yeah, is this about our conversation at the basketball court?"
"No and Yes. I was wondering whether you wanted to hang out tomorrow?"
"Yeah, sure. I'd like that", Kira said ecstatic.
"Ok meet me at the Black Point woods at twelve", Hunter said he grabbed a permanent marker off of Tommy's desk and grabbed Kira's upper arm and wrote his number on it.
"Smooth", Kira said looking at her arm, "If this doesn't come off, you'll be sorry", Hunter chuckled and then he left.

Hunter got to the Shimmer Lake (an old almost-abandoned town) about an hour later, he had a drug deal there and he had to be very careful.
"Yo! Hunter, my man. What's going down homey?" Travis asked giving Hunter a one-arm hug. Travis looked a lot like Hunter except that his eyes were green, his nose was crooked, and he was shorter.
"Nothing much, bro nothing much. Where's that kid who wanted the joint?"
"Suppose to be here at ten the name's Alan, I believe, Derek is gonna take care of 'em. Lenny's over there with that tall Chinese dude. You know we gotta be careful around that dude, if he don't get want he wants…let just say it ain't pretty…aiight?"
"Aiight…I'll try to keep cool", Hunter said and walked over to Lenny and the Chinese man who had a small suit case in his hand.
"How much do you want for it?" the Chinese man asked.
Hunter looked at Lenny and Lenny said, "Four grand."
"Four grand? Man is you fucking crazy? I ain't got money like that!" the Chinese man said in disbelief, "You give it to me for two grand and we have a deal?"
"Two grand? Man that's not even have of what it's worth!" Hunter said forgetting to control his temper.
"You give it to me for two grand or else!" the man said heatedly.
"Or else what?" asked Lenny grasping the gun that was hanging on the back of his pants and Hunter doing the same.
"Or else you heads are gone", he said and he pulled out his gun.
Lenny, quite impulsively, grabbed the suit case in his hand and ran. Hunter let out a groan of frustration. The Chinese man was about to shoot Lenny but Hunter shot him in the ankle and he fell screaming to the ground while Hunter, Lenny, and Travis ran into the woods. The could here the police approaching. They three of them ran all the way to the beach.
"Lenny what you did back there won't cool…at all man…at all", Hunter said awhile later.
"Yeah, dog, what the fuck has gotten into you", Travis asked slapping Lenny on the side of his head.
"Yo, look I won't the one who shot 'em, aiight?" Lenny said hotly.
"Yeah! I shot him! Only to save your dumb ass", Hunter said pushing Lenny so hard that he fell onto the sand.
"Oh…you wanna fuck like that, bitch? You wanna fuck like that?" Lenny asked pushing Hunter back.
Hunter tackled him and the both fell to the ground rolling over each other and hitting each other until Travis separated them.
"YO! You two chill! It's over and we ain't behind bars, aiight?" Travis said extending his arms between the two.
"So how we gonna split the money?" Lenny asked.
"How about I take five-hundred and you two split the rest", Hunter suggested.
"Five-hundred? Dog, that's all you want?" Lenny asked surprised.
"Yeah, you can take more than that", Travis agreed.
"I would but my lies are getting old and I took more last time", Hunter replied.
"K. That's good with me, 'bout you, Lenny?"
"I'm down with that too. Let's do this quick."
So they split the money and the three went their ways.

Kira went home around 11:30. She went up to the back door and went inside. The lights flipped on.
"Jesus Christ! Dad what are you trying to do? Give me a heart attack?" Kira said calming herself down from the shock of her dad being there.
"Where have you been? Do you have any idea what time it is?" John asked angrily.
"It's Friday and it's not that late. What's it to you anyway and why are you here?" Kira asked rather rude questions but didn't ask them ruthlessly.
"Don't talk to me like that! I'm your father and I have a right to know where my underage daughter is. You know I can't keep worrying about you all the time!" her dad hissed.
"Oh! Now you're worried about me? Now that I'm old enough to take care of myself? Wow, great timing, dad", Kira said this time speaking ruthlessly.
"Take care of yourself? Please just look at the useless thing you've become. You got suspended today! That's perfect proof that you're still immature! Well it's probably your mother's fault –"
"Hey she's not the only one to blame!" Kira said passing by him and going into the kitchen and he followed her.
"So where were you?" Kira's dad asked once more.
"I was at a party", Kira lied just to make him angry. She grabbed three oranges and began to peel them with a knife.
"A party? What kind of party", her dad asked raising his eye brows.
"I don't know", Kira shrugged, she pictured of the face of the woman he lived with on the orange and peeled the orange rather violently, "Just some party a lot of people were at".
"What's that on your arm?" he asked referring to Hunter's phone number.
"Some dude's digits", Kira said as if it didn't have any significance.
"Are you going to see him again?"
"Yeah I am…so what?" Kira said slamming the knife on the table.
"So what? What do you mean 'so what'? I know how you are, Kira –"
"Dad! You don't know a damn thing about me! So don't say you do!" Kira said continuing to peel the orange ferociously.
"I know more about you that you know. I know that if you see that boy again all you'll do is have sex with him and then after getting what you want you won't see him again –"
"WHAT? You think I'm a slut? I'm not Brianna, Dad!" yelling at him now and standing up from the table to face him.
"Don't you dare talk bad about Brianna! She is a good child! She's better than you! She's a lady! She's not like you, with all this… Goth shit! With this gloom and doom shit! Her dreams are realistic and yours are pathetic!"
Snap.
"That's it!" Kira hollered biting her tongue so she wouldn't cry, "Get out! Get the fuck out!" Kira grabbed a bowl and threw it at him and it narrowly missed his left ear. Taking the warning he ran out.
Kira's drunk mom came downstairs and Cecile wearily asked, "W-what was…what…what was", but she wasn't even able to finish her sentence before she had to run to the bathroom to retch.
Listening to her mother being sick…that was it. Kira snatched-up the knife she had been cutting the oranges with and sat on the kitchen floor, knowing that it didn't matter if she did it there; her mother would probably pass out on the bathroom floor.
Kira pulled her arm warmer, of her left arm, off and slowly pressed the knife to it. Rubbing it back and forth at first but when that wasn't enough to help her grasp air she craved. She engraved the knife into her arm. Back and forth until the red stream came. Kira could still feel the weight on her chest; so she did it once more and once more after that. She washed her arm in the sink and them put alcohol over the cuts then the band-aids.
She went upstairs up to her room, grasping her arm feeling her arm throbbing in three separate areas. During the whole process no tears had made an entry…none…at all…

The next morning Kira woke-up at eight. She took a shower and got dressed. She decided to wear a black mini skirt, boots, fishnets, a black shirt with a yellow skull on it, her usual black eye shadow and eye liner, her yellow and black arm warmers, and kept her same hair style of the previous day.
Kira got to Black Point woods at quarter 'til twelve, so she waited. She looked around the woods and wondered why on earth Hunter wanted to meet here. It was very dark, well that's why the call it Black Point, Kira thought. Kira sat down and waited for Hunter.
"BOO!" something all of a sudden yelled behind her.
Kira got up and screamed and kicked whatever was behind her in the stomach, "Ah! You son of a –", but when she saw Hunter raise his eyebrows she took a breath and put her fists down, "Hunter! I – I thought you were –"
"A goon?"
"Yeah, pretty much." Kira said staring at him he was wearing baggy blue jeans, sneakers, and a the sweater he had been wearing the previous day, God he's so cute, Kira thought, whoa! I just said he's cute! What the hell's that all about?
"Kira, are you in there?" Hunter asked.
"Huh? Oh yeah so what are we doing here anyway?" Kira asked snapping out of her trance.
Hunter chuckled, she's kinda cute when she's uneasy, he thought, "I wanted to show you the view from the point here", Hunter said.
"What view? I've been here a thousand times and there's nothing special about it; there's no view. Really I think this place should be called Lame Black Woods not Black Point woods."
"Well it's just like looking at a person", Hunter said walking now and Kira following him.
"What do you mean?"
Hunter stopped and looked at her and said, "You can look at a person a billion times but you still won't know who they are. You have to look deep down inside of them to see their inner beauty. That's why I don't really have that many friends, because no one bothers to look past this mask."
"What mask? I don't see a mask?" Kira asked.
"Some people wear visible, honest masks. I wear an invisible one. You know the guys call me the 'brooding' one and I am brooding, but there are so many sides to me that people don't bother to see because they're to preoccupied looking at the outside of me", Hunter said.
"I never knew a boy could be so deep", Kira said.
"I wouldn't call it deep, just something I know, wise or something like that", Hunter said smiling.
"I learn from you…" I like that Kira thought returning the smile.
"Ok, enough of this 'Sensei-like' shit time for you to see the view", Hunter said, "All we have to do is jump into this ditch and go into a cave that's in it", Hunter said as if it was no big deal jumping into a ditch that seemed to be ten feet deep.
"All we have to do is jump into this ditch?" Kira repeated astounded, "It's what? Ten feet deep?"
"Ok, I'll jump first and I'll catch you aiight?" Hunter said.
"Aiight?" Kira said raising an eyebrow.
"I have some friends who talk all wrong and sorta didn't get to go to school so it became a habit", Hunter explained and he jumped.
"Boy! You crazy!" Kira hollered.
"Jump! I'm right here."
"Something tells me I'm going to regret this", Kira said to herself.
She closed her eyes and jumped. Amazingly, Hunter caught her but the force from her jump caused him to stumble backwards and they fell together on the ground.
Hunter chuckled and said, "Well, I caught you", Kira laughed nervously and got off of him.
"So where's that cave? I just love bats", Kira said sarcastically.
"I'm sure you do, vampire", Hunter smirked.
"Hey! I thought you said you didn't label people", Kira spat.
"I never said that", Hunter said grinning and motioning Kira towards the cave.
When they got to the other side Kira gasped, "Wow, I never thought there could be a view in such a ugly-ass place like this."
"Told ya, you gotta farther than what you see as the cover", Hunter said sitting down on the ground and he added, "I think you're cute", surprisingly he didn't seem embarrassed at all.
Kira sat next to him, "You're the first guy who's ever said that to me", Kira said blushing and Hunter smiled. "I hope you don't mind me asking but what it like being without parents?"
"It has it good and bad sides to it", Hunter said honestly.
"I wish I was parentless, wait…I already am", Kira said still figuring out why the hell she was opening up to him. He gave her a questioningly look so she added, "Let's just say they're not really around."
"I always wonder why real parents left me, but I never new them and because of that I don't judge them."
"My situation is a little different", Kira sighed. Well a drunk of a mother and a father who hates me – that's very different…oh God Kira! I don't need this shit right now! Let me go at least a day without thinking about the crap that goes on, she told herself.
"So how are you dealing with your ex being gay?" Hunter asked.
"Um…better actually. I know it's not my fault he's gay. I guess I was just upset that he preferred this guy name Dylan over me…but I think I found…never mind. "Have you ever been inside a school?" Kira asked out of curiosity.
"Only the Ninja schools and the Gym at your school, that's it. Ain't it funny? I don't know what a classroom looks like", they both chuckled.
"If you want we can go to school so you can see what it looks like in the inside. Dr. O leaves his window open and we can get in from there. It's nothing special but you've never seen one."
"That's breaking and entering but it's not like I've never done anything against the law", Hunter said impulsively, Kira looked at him questioning filling her eyes, "Ok, let go", they both got up and let to Reefside High School.

When they got there and went inside Hunter said, "You were right, they ain't nothing special about this place", he said in a disapproving face.
Kira laughed and said, "Come on, it's my turn to show you something."
"It's not going to be some boring science room is it?"
"No, now come on", Kira said taking hold of his arm and pulling him out of the classroom and leading him downstairs, "This is the basement and we have an elevator that leads to the roof. I found it one day I had detention and the teacher in charge fell asleep and everyone sorta left her to sleep and we explored the school and I'm rambling", Kira took a breath and Hunter laughed and they both stepped into the small elevator.
They got to the roof and walked onto it, "This is nice, the perfect place to skip class", Hunter said.
"Yeah, I come here when I don't feel like going to class", Kira said as she laid back on near the edge of roof. Hunter laid next to her.
"You remember when we were talking about the labels people put on us?" Hunter asked, Kira nodded, "Well, I left one out, no one really knows about it. Except for so people on the streets."
"What is it", Kira asked turning her head sideways to look at him.
He looked up at the sky and said in an undertone, "Criminal."
"Criminal?"
"Yeah, criminal. I get myself into shit, drug deals, street fights and the list would take an hour to complete", Hunter looking over at her to see her reaction. Surprisingly there was no reaction.
"Even though it's not right sometimes you, sometimes, have to do whatever it takes to survive", Kira said looking at him.
"You don't seem scared of me", Hunter said in surprise.
"Nope, I'm not…I have no reason to be…", she replied.
Hunter pulled the gun from his back and Kira said, "It's just a gun…"
Hunter snapped it open and it revealed an empty slot where he had shot the Chinese man, "Are you scared now?"
Kira stared at the empty slot for a minute before she said, "You're not a criminal, you're a survivor… You don't seem freaked by me", Kira said trying to keep her voice from trembling, now she looked up to the sky.
"Why should I be because you're a Goth? I'm not…"
Kira took a mental deep breath and pulled her left arm warmer off, looked him straight in the eyes and said, "Are you freaked now?"
Hunter stared at the scars, "You're –"
"A cutter", Kira finished for him, "That's the part of my label I left out…so how much do I freak you out?"
Hunter, with his right hand, traced over some of the scars and slowly reached up to her hand and their fingers entwined.
"So I don't freak you out?" Kira asked.
Hunter shook his head, "So I don't scare you?" Kira shook her head and they smiled at each other.
