-Larten-
After all my dishes were washed, bags packed and my clothes out of the dryer. Kai and I got in her car and drove to her house. Her car was a black Mercedes. Which apparently a Mercedes is a very expensive brand of car.
"I have a convertible and about three other different kinds of Mercedes..." She yammered on and on about the cars until me finally came to a set of huge iron gates.
Kai jumped out of the car and inserted a key in the lock. She then leaped back in and drove through. As soon as we passed, the gate closed behind us. We drove up a paved driveway to an enormous house. I undid my seatbelt, and walked to the steps. Kai kept driving up to the garage to put the car away. When she returned she unlocked the door and pushed it open.
It was a very unkept house. There were clothes on the floor, books on couches, plates on tables. I could see a blush forming on Kai's face.
She led me though the mess to the cleanest room that was out of the sun. Which happened to be her sisters.
"Thank you Larten. For saving me." I nodded my head.
She then beckoned me to follow her. Kai led me around the house until we came to purple curtain. She pulled it back reveling a metal door. Kai reached up to a brick and pulled it lose. And flipped the brick upside down, and pulled out a key that was hidden in a slot. Kai put the brick back and unlocked the door. Behind the door there was a long spiraling staircase. When we were half way up the staircase Kai broke the silence.
"I would appreciate it if you did not tell anyone about this. No one knows about it except me. I found it when I was younger." I wondered how on earth she found it.
We kept going and arrived at the top. Another door was sitting on ground of us. She grabbed a brick and pulled it out. Kai did the same thing as she did before. She pushed open the door to reveal a hall. And she opened the first door to reveal an old fashioned bathroom. In the next was a kitchen and another a bedroom.
"This one's my Favorite." Kai smiled and pushed open the door. A huge library was behind this one. There were desks and rows upon rows of books. The floor was carpeted. Kai's eyes lit up with joy. She must be fond of books.
We stayed up there for a while then decided to back downstairs. She locked both doors and put the keys in her sweater pocket. I looked out the window. We had three minutes until the sun came up.
Kai looked at me. As if she was sizing me up. A piece of her hair fell in her eyes. And she fluidly brushed it away. I stuck my hands in my duster pocket to come across cold metal. I fingers it, until I realized it was Kai's promise and engagement rings.
"Goodnight Miss..."
"Addison."
"Goodnight Miss. Addison." I smiled slipped off to my room. Kai followed me and after I had taken off all my clothes except my underwear she knocked on the door.
"Dirty clothes please." she called. I opened the door and dropped them. She opened the door and tossed me some underwear. I raised an eyebrow but accepted them.
Closing the door and switched the underwear. Then dropped the dirty ones on the pile. Kai picked them up and trekked downstairs. I slipped under the cool, silky sheets and fell asleep.
-Kai-
After I took Larten's clothes to the wash. I sprawled on the couch to watch some TV. After awhile I heard a creek of the front door and soft footsteps. I scampered towards the kitchen and grabbed the first thing I saw. A frying pan. Darting to the hallway towards the people. I chucked the frying pan and it hit the man upside the head. The man fell on the floor, and girl bent over the man.
I dashed upstairs. And flung open Larten's bedroom door and shook him.
"Larten! There's someone in the house!" I hissed.
He sprang out of bed and I couldn't help but notice his scars, abs and muscle. I blushed as he ran down stairs.
Larten stopped at the two people standing at the door. One with a bump on his head from the frying pan and another with an eagle feather in her hair.
"Vancha?" Larten asked.
"Hello Larten." Vancha snickered, laughing at Larten's appearance.
I slipped around the corner.
"Who is that Vancha?" Larten puzzled.
This Vancha character had green hair, purple animal hides and very sunburn skin.
"This is Raina. Raina this is Larten."
Raina smiled and did a peace sign with her fingers.
"I'll go get you some clothes. I muttered and disappeared upstairs.
I grabbed a pair of black trousers and a white shirt. I returned back downstairs and gave them to Larten. He nodded in thanks and stalked around the corner to get dressed.
"What's your name?" Vancha asked quizzically.
"Kai Addison."
"Isn't Kai a guys name." He asked cheekily. I narrowed my eyes.
"No it's a unisexual name." I glared. He laughed and shook his head. Larten returned back just as I slapped Vancha across the face. Larten Blinked rapidly and I stalked off hotly.
-Larten-
"What did you do now Vancha?" I sighed in annoyance.
"Nothing." he said sulking, rubbing his face were Kai had smacked him. I tried hard to keep from laughing. Vancha, for some reason seemed to get slapped a lot.
I held up one finger and if to say one second. I chased after Kai who had 'Sulky' plastered all over her face.
"What did he do."
"Nothing of Importance." She spat.
Her eyes blazing with fire. I grabbed her arm and pulled her back down stairs.
"Kai, this is my good friend Vancha March." I told her.
"Nice to meet you." she snarled though gritted teeth. I mentally rolled my eyes at her. Female can be so bigheaded. She eyed him icily and looked him up and down.
"You are NOT getting any further into my house wearing...and smelling like that."
Poor Kai, lol. Anyway hope you liked it. There will be more in the future! (I will upload when I get 5-10 more reviews...) R&R plz! CYA!
