Thanks for reviewing the last chapter much appreciated. Sorry it took me a while to update but I've been writitng some songfics and it slipped my mind. So anyway on with the story.
Wally stared at Kay/Kuki unblinkingly for a few minutes, attracting attention from the other students. "Hey, new guy take a picture it'll last longer" a dark haired boy called out. Causing Wally to blush and look down t the question sheet in front of him. Kay hadn't noticed him staring…or at least didn't seem to.
Kuki/Kay's Pov
For god's sake can't he look at someone else? I inwardly groan, sure he's cute but staring is just plain weird. Theo Rose called out something to...what was his name again...oh yeah Rebel, Kinda dumb name I feel but whatever, the comment broke his trance and he turned back to his work. So many idiots used to take the piss outta my name. Wow the hilarity, Kuki pure comic genius, that's why I shortened it to Kay. When I started at this school I was so happy and full of energy but the other guys here hated me. The bullying started soon after we began, Numbuh 5 or should I say Abby deserted me when I needed her the most. I was so alone and used to hide away and cry. That was until Ingrid showed up. She was really nice to me and had this air of menace the other kids liked to avoid. Since then everything has gotten better well almost everything. When Ingrid's not around I feel vulnerable but she is hardly ever not there and always apologises if shes late to meet me. All I have to do is keep my head down and I become almost invisible. The whole Goth me came into play when I found listening to angrier more meaning full songs helped me to get rid of my frustrations. I didn't feel my change was all that major, I mean my hair was already black.
The old Kuki is still deep inside me but I fear that if I was ever her again I would have to face the torment and isolation all over again. I prefer to remain invisible gothic Kay, for now at least.
1 hour later
Normal POV
Wally grabbed his bag and stood up, searching the crowd of students for Ku-Kay. He spotted her leaning against the door frame waiting for him, so she could show him to his next class.
"Just take a right then a left, go up the stairs and it'll be right in front of you" Kay pointed out to Wally. He looked at her confused but nodded his head anyway. "okay, I'll see you at lunch then" Kay smiled, unconsciously Wally grinned back, Still after all these years he liked her a lot, maybe even more then intense like. Wally shivered slightly these feelings weren't new to him, hey he'd had them so often when he was younger it almost felt like the past was repeating itself, Wally wasn't sure if this was a good thing though.I should tell her I'm Wally, he realised zoning out on what Kay was telling him. Whilst he'd been lost in his thoughts Kay had walked off, leaving him standing alone in the deserted corridor. Only then did he realise, He had no idea where his class was!!
LATER
Kay pushed the cafeteria door open hoping against hope that no one would notice her go in. Gingerly glancing into the large room she was relieved to find it practically empty bar a few girls the year younger then her, oh and Rebel. He looked up as she walked over and waved slightly. Back tracking a bit she stared hard at him, something, something was so familiar, very familiar. It was beginning to annoy her where did she know this guy from? Sitting down she smiled at him, "so find your class ok?" she asked, the boy grimaced "um…define find?" they both laughed Kay noticed a slight Australian twang in his voice, very slight almost gone. Wait Wally sounded sort of like that, well with a higher pitch. That thought made Kay giggle. Out loud. Rebel looked at her confused. "What?" he asked "oh it's nothing, I just thought of something" she explained. He still looked unsure though. Trying to steer away from the subject she asked him about his old school. "It was crud, the teachers were idiots and I was always in fights with kids" he stared down at his lunch and sighed "hopefully it will be better here, I mean…" he paused sheepishly "you're here". Kuki was stunned and blushed prettily. "Well…um…thanks?" she flustered not used to compliments. A shrill shriek broke the moment. They both looked up to see Ingrid grinning wildly. "My my, aren't we comfortable" Ingrid teased. Wally fidgeted uncomfortably in his seat avoiding eye contact, whilst Kay blushed an even deeper red and glared at her friend.
Shrugging innocently Ingrid sat down next to Wally. "So...Rebel? I like your lip ring" Ingrid said pointing to the green lip ring. "Um, thanks" Wally replied suddenly self conscious. "Oh I got silverstein's new album" Ingrid suddenly remembered reaching into her black bag to get it. Pulling it out she waved the case in Kay's face, swatting the CD case away Kay started to eat her lunch. Rebel ate his too, trying to not look at Kay so obviously. Noticing his blatant crush on her friend Ingrid silently laughed, formulating a plan in her head.
After eating lunch Ingrid remembered some random homework she needed to do quite convenient really. Leaving Kay and Rebel alone again. Instantly remembering his comment from before Kay became shy wanting to run away and hide. "Soooo, wanna show me round" Wally said. Realising the comment was directed at her Kay silently nodded and gathered her stuff together.
Leaving the cafeteria they walked out into the courtyard. A lone bench was placed in the corner in front of the school, the pair walked over. Past a group of kids from their year. "Hey…YOU, Goth freak" A nasally voice called out nastily. Kuki tensed and pretended not to hear. "I'M talkin to you!!!!" the voice shouted angrily. "Rebel sensed Kay's uneasiness; looking over at the owner of the voice he balled his hand into a fist. But remembering his decision to avoid fights unclenched it. Instead he called out "Just shut up dude before things get REALLY nasty", it was an empty threat but the look he gave the guy was very dangerous almost psychotic. A small smile spread across his lips at the guys shocked expression. But it did the trick they all walked off leaving him and Kay to sit at the bench. Alone. They sat in an awkward silence both wondering what to say. All of a sudden a voice called out to Wally. "Wally!!!...is that you?!" A tall boy walked over he wore black shades, a red t-shirt, Black drainpipes and red converse. Wally instantly recognised him as Nigel Uno. Numbuh one. Grinning broadly Wally got up and walked over to him. "Nigel, how ya doin?" Launching into a conversation about each other lives since the decommissioning, they forgot about Kuki sat on the bench. She sat mouth open staring at Rebel…or should she say Wally! She felt weird, why hadn't he said?! That must have been why he was looking at her all through their lesson together. He'd heard her name called out. But that was almost 3 hours ago and they'd been alone for ages it's not like he couldn't have told her. Now her shock melted into anger she frowned at Wally walked back over smiling. "Whoa, cool Numbuh 1, God it seems like forever since…."his voice trailed off when he saw the look on Kuki's face. It had finally dawned on him that Nigel had called him Wally. Kuki knew. Wally gulped loudly. "So Rebel…or should I say WALLY". She said Wally so venomously he stepped back. "look, Kay…I was gunna tell you, it….it just…slipped my mind" he cringed at his lame excuse" Kuki stood up glaring at him, "yeah sure…whatever" she hissed storming off to find Ingrid.
Wally stared after her mentally kicking himself. He had really forgotten to tell her, Kinda. He had planned to tell her a second before Nigel called out to him. Now, well now he didn't know what to do. It was obvious he had to face her, and soon. Wally groaned wouldn't it just be easier to switch schools?
