Finally got this chapter done. Thank you everyone for those amazing reviews it means a lot when you start out with none. I know you've all been asking for this, and sorry for making you wait.
Disclaimer: I don't own Darren Shan characters only Raina and Kai.
Now on with the story!
-Kai-
I grabbed a clean pair of jeans and white blouse and pulled them on. Grabbing the comb I brush out my long locks.
Gathering up my dirty clothes, I lugged them over to the washer machine. After tossing them in, I then walked to Larten's room. Grabbing an arm full of clothes I had gotten for him. I opened his door slowly.
"Larten, I need your clothes and I got these for you." I said placing trousers, and button up shirt on his bed I ambling out. Soon the door opened and an arm full of dirty clothes was put in my arms. I looked Larten up and down.
The clothes fit him wonderfully. When I looked into his eyes I noticed they were twinkling. I took his clothes to the washer machine and started it. Then sauntered back to Larten.
"So, what do you think of your new clothes?"
"They are wonderful, thank you Kai." Larten said showing his gratitude.
I soon remembered something that I had forgot. Laundry detergent. I rushed to the load of laundry and stopped it, then put a cup of the detergent in it.
Trudging to Larten's room I bid him goodnight. I then sunk into my bed for a nice peaceful sleep.
The next morning I crawled resentfully out of my bed and into the kitchen to start breakfast. With heavy eyelids I attempted to make eggs. I nearly dropped two of them on the ground. A pair of arm gently pushed me to the side.
"Here, let me help. You go have a shower. It will help wake you up." Larten told me. I nodded and did as he requested.
-Larten-
I felt sorry for Kai. She had been up all night. I heard her crying, and before that she was screaming in her sleep. I sighed and continued making the eggs. I heard the shower turn off and a couple minutes after Kai walked out.
She was still in her pajamas. And she stumbled over to me.
"Here." Kai yawned. I stopped her from grabbing the pan.
"No do not touch. You are to tired to think or see straight." Kai nodded in agreement instead of putting up a fight.
"Go back to your room, and sleep for a bit longer." I instructed. Kai leisurely made her way to her room to sleep. When the eggs were cooked I knocked on Raina and Vancha's doors. (Since they now are sharing a bed)
"Breakfast." I called then walked back to the kitchen. Scooping eggs onto three plates I sat them on the table for breakfast. I heard the footsteps of Raina and Vancha, and soon they joined me at the table.
"Where's Kai?" Raina asked.
"In bed, she had a long night." I said simply. They both nodded in response. As we finished I collected the plates and put them in the sink.
"Thanks Larten." Came a mumble from behind me.
"You are welcome."
-Kai-
After I woke up from a peaceful sleep. I marched into the living room to find Larten sitting alone on the couch.
"Hey Larten. Want to go to the Library with me?" I asked generously.
"Okay that would be pleasurable. Just allow me to get my duster." Larten agreed as he swiftly headed to his room.
Then just as fast he was out the door. I jumped into my car and Larten got in the other side. Turning the car key and off we went.
When we arrived at the library I grabbed my large ring of keys and unlocked it. I instantly walked towards one of my favorite book series. The Lord of The Rings and grabbed the three of them and the book The Hobbit.
I stuck my nose into it and examine were I left off in the first book. Larten made himself comfortable in one of the overstuffed armchairs. I sat across from him.
"Anything you like?" I asked him
"Well I do enjoy Shakespeare."
"Anything to narrow it down?"
"No not really." I sat my copy of The Fellowship of The Rings on the table with the rest of the books and walked to the section with Shakespeare books.
I grasp my favorite book, Hamlet and walked back and settled into the chair beside him.
"Want me to read it to you?"
"Please." he replied.
"Who's there?" I resisted. Sinking into the story, Larten relaxed in the chair and listened to the whole thing.
I almost got three quarters of the way done. By the time I realized that it was 6 in the morning. We had been here for 8 hours sheesh.
"We should be getting back." I told him. He nodding and stood up. I grabbed the 5 books and walked to the door. My parents would kill me if they found out about this. No one is allowed to take the books out except for them. Which in my opinion is a very stupid thing.
Handing the books to Larten I climbed into the car. After an hour of driving, we finally arrived.
I yawned and pushed open the door to the trailer letting the door bang close.
"How was your night?" Vancha asked us when he stepped out around the corner. Raina followed him like a lost puppy.
"Good your's?"
"Spectacular." Vancha beamed making Raina blushed. Larten dropped the books in my arms.
I looked at the clock, 7. The stores should be open in an hour. It would take more then that long to drive there. I desperately needed new clothes.
"Hey Raina want to go shopping?"
"Yeah, that sounds fun." she replied happily. I like how she's so eager to try new things.
We walked out of the room to my car until I remembered I forgot my purse in my bedroom. I raced back inside and fetched it. When I was back we climbed into the car and drove to the mall. Shopping here we come.
-Larten-
"So what'd you do today?" Vancha asked.
"Nothing, Kai read to me but other then that...and you."
"Nothing!" he said quickly. I looked at him with a raised eyebrow then shook my head.
"I don't want to know. At all, ever."
"You got it Larten." Vancha snickered.
That's the end of the chapter. Sorry for stopping there, I had to. The next chapter shall be out tomorrow or hopefully today. When ever I can get it done. Anyway please R&R.
