So look who's back on this, eh? Yup… Re-read it… Wanna at least try and work on it… Currently I'm updating "Spell of Love"… Difficult… Very difficult… Anywho, hope this chapter doesn't suck.
Not So Wrong- Chapter 4- Chase, you idiot.
Kimiko wasn't sure how long she had been sitting with Chase, but so far he had just been sniffling and explaining his life story to her. Apparently Chase had once been infatuated with a young boy he had known in his youth, but when his master had found out, the boy had been burned at the stake, saying he was a warlock. The boy had red hair, and way back then, that was the only reason they needed to kill him. Chase said all his life after the incident he had been taught and re-taught to only hold affections for women- obviously that didn't really work.
When her phone went off with a text from Raimundo asking where she was, Kimiko lied and said she was looking for an actual bouquet for Jack since Omi's was so dirty. She guessed he believed that because she got no response. Kimiko looked back at Chase and saw that he was still incredibly depressed. She didn't entirely understand his sorrow, though; if someone makes you happy, why keep yourself from them? She had been able to explain that to Keiko when Keiko admitted she was madly in love with a man about twice her age. (Now Keiko's actually dating said man, so that worked out perfectly…) And Kimiko's met and encouraged gay friends to go for their loves successfully many times. Why was Chase so difficult?
"I shouldn't have run away," Chase muttered, resting his chin on his desk again.
Smirking, Kimiko said, "No, you idiot, you shouldn't have…"
"We'd never be able to have children…" he mumbled into his arms, which were now folded in front of his nose, "At least with you Jack would be able to continue his family lineage…"
"You could adopt," Kimiko offered, trying to make Chase see the bright side. Difficult with an evil super villain…
Chase suddenly sat up and scowled at her. "And what would I tell the children? How would we explain to them about their mothers? Or what if they're teased by their friends?" he spat.
Kimiko couldn't help but giggle at the prince of Darkness. "Chase, you sound like a dad," she said with a smile. Chase blinked and then quickly looked away.
"Well, even if I were to admit to him, he still loves you and it wouldn't work out…" he said, looking at the ground.
"Chase, you really are an idiot," Kimiko said, causing him to look at her with wide golden eyes, "If you tell Jack that you're in love with him too, then he's gonna immediately be overjoyed and I'm sure that he'll realize he loves you a heck of a lot more than me."
"But he said-" Chase began, but was cut off.
"Chase, I've been a frigid bitch to Jack for forever, at least you and he have had some evil bonding time, right?" she asked, smiling. She knew she was right, and Chase knew too- he couldn't argue. But he still looked wary, so Kimiko decided to give him a break. "Look, Chase, you don't have to tell him right away, but I do want to see you make some sort of attempt at showing him that you didn't mean to run out on him like you did, kay?"
Chase simply nodded and Kimiko left. On her way back to the Temple, she made sure to pluck lots of flowers for Jack's bouquet- she hadn't forgotten her excuse. Once she had the biggest, prettiest, most flamboyant bouquet, Kimiko returned to her friends and presented Jack with the flowers.
Joking with the red-head, Kimiko giggled and said, "Now I see why you said you wanted to be queen- you're just too darn pretty when you have flowers to be anything else." Jack smiled happily at her, and Omi then began bowing to the queen. Jack's smile only grew at Omi's silly gesture of kindness. Kimiko curtsied for him, and addressed him as Queen Jack Spicer, his royal evilness.
Well… I guess this was in honor of coming out day, which I was informed was the eleventh of October. So, happy belated coming out day. I hope you all have a friend who came out to hug. Whether it be sexually or citizenship status-ally… Um… Is that a word?
