Classes had switched, because their was a male basket ball team on in the gym the same time as dancing, the boys now had to dance in the gym and the girls in the drama area. A lot of the basket ball players were laughing at them. Kali snorted.

"Stupid third years." He snapped. They soon, however shut up once the boys started dancing.

"This should get them to shut up." Kali said with a smirk. He back rolled and brought himself up onto his arms. He walked down the hall for a few minutes on his hands, then keeping his legs straight in the air, he brought one hand away from the ground balancing on one hand. He placed it behind his back and slowly began to do push ups with his one arm. Soon enough the basket ball team all shrunk away, tossing him reproachful looks. Phoenix and Cerulean soon joined him, although it took Phoenix a few tries to get fully balanced. Luckily there were mats around them.

Just as Kali thought. Ty didn't show up. Phoenix was finding it hard to concentrate, which made Kali give him twenty more of those hand stand/ push ups.

"I-I'm j-j-just w-w-w-worried is a-all." Phoenix puffed, having just completed his nineteenth push up.

Soon the basket ball teem began to leave and five minutes or so later the bell sounded for the end of the day. "What do we do? Go home or wait here."

"Lets wait here for a few minutes, Ty may want to stay behind by himself either way we need to know what he's doing." Kali said.

"Can't we text him?" Cerulean asked.

"I've phoned him before at his 'work' but he either doesn't answer, or his mobile is off." Kali said sighing.

"What kind of job requires you not to answer your phone, requires possibly dancing or even ballet, and has unusual hours." Kali said.

"And requires him to wear make up!" Phoenix said.

"He said it was cream." Kali shrugged.

Ceruleans face lit up in an instant. "Of course what was I thinking!" He jumped up. "I know what it is! At least I think I do, see you guys later I'm off."

"Whoa! What is it?" Kali asked.

"Well if it is what I think it is, I can understand why he isn't telling us…" Cerulean said pausing for a moment.

"Just tell us god damn it!" Kali snapped.

"I may be wrong, I'll see you guys later, I have some research to take care of." Cerulean bounded out the hall leaving a stunned Phoenix and a furious Kali behind.

"God what is it with people and secrets!" Kali snapped hitting his hand hard against the wall and wincing. Just then the doors opened and Ty walked in.

"Listen Kali I'm really sorry, I tried to get here as soon as I could!" Ty said.

"Well Cerulean thinks he knows were your working about!" Kali snapped.

"H-He does?" Ty gulped.

"Yeah he recons he does…" kali sighed. "Why won't you tell us?"

"I will, when I'm ready, I'll even show you!" He said smiling.

Kali blinked. " 'Show us?' "

Ty smiled and nodded.

"Listen Ty, I can take a job, one that doesn't interfere with school, I just don't want you to ruin your education!"

"Oh don't worry about that, I make up for it with homework and such. Another reason I didn't want to go to the sleep over!"

"I can get a job, we can all get small part time jobs!" Kali said.

"I like my job, I enjoy it!"

"More than dancing." Phoenix said raising his eye brows.

"Well I dance at my job, so technically no." He smiled. "Anyway here are the house keys you can go home, I'm going to stay behind, do a bit of dancing then go and see my teachers for any work I may have missed." Ty said sighing.

Kali and Phoenix nodded, grabbing their things they walked out the gym hall and down the corridor towards the male changing rooms. Not a word was spoken and just as they were about to enter the male rooms. Zia, who was walking down the corridor towards them, shouted:

"Did you get Ty?" She asked.

"Yeah he's staying behind, he's in the gym hall." Kali replied. Zia nodded and made her way towards the hall. Phoenix watched her go then raised his eye brows at Kali who just shrugged. And without anymore words or signals entered the showers.

"Gosh it's eight and Ty still isn't home." Phoenix said gazing at the clock.

"No sign of Cerulean either." Kali said with a sigh.

Just then the door opened and Cerulean walked in. A big grin on his face.

"I assume you've found out what our brother is up to?" Kali asked smiling.

"I sure have, and I'm so proud of him!" Cerulean placed his coat over the seat and sat down.

"So it's nothing like stripping?" Kali said with a sigh.

"I never said that, all I can say is he's braver than I first thought."

Kali let out a small howl of frustration. "Can someone just tell me?" He snapped.

"Don't worry you'll find out soon!" Cerulean said smiling.

Just as Kali was about to throw a temper tantrum the door flew open and Ty bolted in slamming it shut he bolted for his room.

"What the hell was that about?" Kali asked raising an eye brow at the door.

Cerulean walked over to it and tapped lightly on it. "Ty, are you okay?"

There was a short silence. "Yeah just fine…"

"What the hell happened?" Kali asked pressing his ear to the door.

"I had a run in with Zia." Came the muffled reply.

Kali pressed his ear harder against the door. "What did she do?"

"Nothing much… she walked in on me dancing."

"Please tell me you weren't wearing your leather pants!" Kali said.

"Yeah I was, and that was the only thing I was wearing, I mean apart from under wear."

Kali winced. "Oh god that must have been embarrassing."

"It was, but she told me…" He hesitated.

"Told you what?" Kali asked. All three boys now had their ears pressed against the door. The door was thrown open and all three of them were thrown into the room at Ty's feet. Ty chuckled lightly.

"She told me, she liked what she seen." He said, a small blush forming on his face.

"SCORE! Ty!" Kali hopped up and punched his brothers arm. "So what happened then?"

"Nothing…" He blushed deeply.

"My ass nothing!" Kali laughed. "If nothing then why the hell are you blushing?"

Cerulean and Phoenix had peeled themselves from the floor and now sat on Ty's bed.

"Well… she backed me into the corner and…"

"And?"

Ty shook his head, the red on his face never leaving.

"Don't you have something better to do?" Ty asked gazing at his feet.

"No." Kali answered honestly.

Ty sighed. "Well she kinda felt me up and…" He shrugged. "Kissed me, it was no big deal-"

"GOD TY! Congrats!" Kali sprung up and down. "She's a keeper for sure!"

Ty blushed, if possible, even more.

"So your going to ask her out right?" Cerulean asked.

"I dunno…" He shrugged.

"What do you mean you 'don't know'?" Kali asked.

"Well I'm not sure if she actually likes me, she doesn't really know me!"

"Ty stop being an old school boy! This is Two thousand and seven mate! Get in there!"

"Isn't that exactly what she said to you?" Ty asked the blush fading. "That your like most males? Excuse me for being different, did it ever cross your mind maybe that's why she likes me?"

Kali sighed. "Your right, you scored this chick your way, you should keep doing it your way." He smiled. "Sorry."

Ty grinned. "It's alright. I think I'll wait to get to know her first." He shrugged. "You never know, she might not like me!"

"Dude, she'd be crazy not to like you, your one hell of a find." Kali said smiling at him. Ty beamed up at him and Phoenix and Cerulean gazed at Kali as if seeing him for the first time. Since when did he ever compliment Ty?

Zia's words still rung in his head. She was right, he was the oldest and he needed to start acting like it! Since mother was no longer around to raise Ty's self esteem, Kali had to try.

"I forgot about the sleep over tomorrow. Does anyone else know who's going?" Cerulean asked.

"Raven, ZIIIIAAAA." Kali said wriggling his brows at Ty before finishing the others quickly. "Rowan and Epona." He smiled. "It was meant to be an all girls thing, but Zia…" He paused and looked back at Ty. "Wanted it to be a bit more fun!"

Ty blushed and sighed. "Kali you'd best apologise to Raven before this! She doesn't like you right now. Zia told me she's always complaining about you!"

"Ach." He shrugged his shoulders. "it's a 'love/ hate thing'"

Phoenix and Cerulean smiled and shook their head. "Tomorrow night should be VERY interesting…" Cerulean said with a small grin.

"We're just getting ready to head over to Raven's. I took Ty's advice and said sorry to her today, but she, like me, was more interested in the fact that Zia and Ty were VERY close at school today! Any chance Zia got she'd slip her hand in his and walk down the corridor with him. Or she'd sit on his lap when he was least expecting it. We'd all just grin and watch him blush and mutter to himself.

"Something tells me that for two people so different, they could be together for a while, I'm not sure about Zia, but Ty is very loyal! He must be, look at the number of times he's stood by my side, and all I've ever given him, is shit. Anyway, we're off to have some fun, and drag Ty by the ears. I'll write in you soon.

Kali."

Kali walked out of his room and his coat was thrown in his face.

"Erm, thanks, I guess…" Kali said putting it on.

"No problem, now hurry up or we'll be late!" Cerulean said.

"Isn't that in fashion right now?" Kali said.

"Being late?" Cerulean said raising a brow.

"Yeah it's some sort of stupid girl rule!" Phoenix said smiling.

"Right!" Cerulean said pushing them all out the door.

"Wait!" Ty shouted.

"What is it now?" Cerulean asked.

"I need to lock the fucking door you idiot."
