Chapter 10 and so the truth comes out
The rest of the day was pretty much normal, for a day on Souleater planet. Seriously how many girls get to say that? Blackstar and Rose continued to insult each other. I went to art class with Kid and he freaked out over his painting's symmetry, yelling about how he didn't deserve to be a grim reaper.
I assured him that he was an awesome grim reaper and just because a painting was asymmetrical that doesn't mean that the whole world is over. I thought his painting was nice. When I told him so he said 'you really think so' I nodded and smiled at him.
After school we headed over to his house to hang out. Liz and Patti set it up. Figures. All of us are walking to Kid's house, Rose and Blackstar yelling themselves sick. Liz, Patti and Ciara chatting, Maka and Trice geeking it up and Soul complaining about how uncool they are. I heard a bit of their conversation and shook my head at them.
"So Trice what's you favorite color?" Maka asked.
"Oh that's easy, it's the color of the large central vacuole in a plant cell" Trice said. It's true, when we were learning about cells in class and I saw the transparent watery color tinted blue I pointed it out to Trice because she always said that that was her absolute favorite color.
"Seriously?! Me too! See Soul, I told you someone else had that favorite color." Maka exclaimed.
"Whatever it's still lame" Soul said in a board voice. And he revived a Maka chop and, in turn, Maka revived a high five from Trice.
I turned back to Kid, he looked far away. Like something was bothering him. I put a comforting hand on his shoulder. I was worried about him, I don't like it when something bothers him. He smiled at me reassuringly looking at me with that damn expression again! What was it? It's driving me crazy.
We got to the front door when I realized that I'm about to enter the gallows manor! This is just too awesome. Kid held the door open for me and I stepped inside taking in the perfectly symmetrical gothic style home. It was beautiful, down to the last symmetrical detail even Rose was speechless. Me Rose and Trice stood with our mouths open gaping at the vastness of it all. The stylized house was so much more that we have ever seen, ever.
"You done drooling over my humble abode" Kid said, smiling at our expressions.
"I am not drooling" I said "and humble? Kid, this is far from humble."
He shrugged and said "Any symmetrical dwelling would do but dad insisted on me living somewhere 'fit for a grim reaper'" he said, exaggerating the last words.
"That's all good and well but this place, beside not being at all humble, is the most beautiful home I have ever seen." I say.
Kid blushes and the rest of them completely ignore us and head off to some room. I grab Kid's hand and drag him along, following the others.
We all enter a large room with black walls and a Death skull mural painted on two of the shorter walls in the rectangular space. The carpet was black and white striped, wall to wall mind you. And there was various pieces of red furniture mostly focused around the fire place in the direct middle of the long wall, which was a white marble and had two logs currently burning in it. Lastly, white candles were scattered throughout the room.
"TRUTH OR DARE?" Patti shouted, more of a demand than a question.
"Great idea Patti!" Liz said.
"Are you sure about this?" Maka said nervously.
"HELL YEAH! TRUTH OR DARE IS AWESOME!" Rose yelled.
"I WILL SURPASS GOD AT TRUTH OR DARE" Blackstar yelled. Both Rose and Blackstar were so excited they forgot to insult each other.
"Don't worry about it Maka it's cool" Soul said
"Oh-ok-kay" Maka said shakily. Trice gave a comforting smile before joining the others near the fireplace. I thought it was a great idea. I sat down next to Trice, smiled at Kid and patted the spot next to me. He came over and sat on the red four-seater with me. Liz sat next to him Patti sat next to Liz but on the ground. Next came Rose and Blackstar in front of the fireplace then Tsubaki on another red four-seater with Soul and Maka. Ciara next to them.
"I'll start" Liz said looking around to pick out her first victim "Maka, truth or dare?"
"Uhhhh I don't know. Truth?" She said.
"Do you have a crush on anyone in this room?" Liz asked. Maka nodded, blushing.
"Now you pick someone" Soul said.
"Ok, Patti truth-"
"DARE!" She yelled
"Ok, uhhhhhh I dare you to do ten jumping jacks while spelling out your crush's name" Maka said sheepishly.
"OK!" "C-H-R-O-N-A " she yelled, doing jumping jacks.
"Seriously?" Liz asked.
Patti shrugged "his hair is PINK"
"OK, KIDDO! TRUTH OR DARE?!" Patti said to Kid.
"Dare" Kid said, unafraid.
"7 MINUTES IN HEAVEN! With... SABRINA" shit!
"Truth! Truth! Truth!" Kid said.
"No no Kiddo you can't do that, know, INTO THE CLOSET YOU GO!" Patti said. Damn her!
"But I" I said only to be shut up by Liz pushing me towards the closet and Patti doing the same for Kid. Before I could get out again they closed the closet door. I tried to open it but it wouldn't budge. I'd bet you anything that Blackstar is holding the door shut. Damn it!
"So" I said looking at Kid and practically crashing into him as I turned around to see his face. Of course this had to be the smallest closet ever.
"I uh, well, so" Kid said.
I looked at our surroundings since Kid doesn't plan on talking anytime soon. There is a row of coats on a rod and a line of shoes below. Maybe if I move the coats aside I can make a bit more space.
"I think I can make some more space in here" I said
"Go right ahead" Kid stepped out of the way, or rather we both shuffled around at the same time to move. I started fiddling with the coats and I tripped on a shoe. I fell over right into Kid, who caught me so we both wouldn't hit the wall. He caught me bridal style.
"Thanks Kid" I said. He carefully let me down so that I wouldn't fall again.
"No problem" he said
"Well" I said. I couldn't concentrate on anything when he was this close to me especially with my whole damn body on fire from our previous episode.
"Hey, Sabrina I wanted to ask you something"
"Sure, ask away"
"Well..." He said with that expression "I was wondering..." He paused. Not wanting to rush him I didn't press the matter.
"If you... You know... Had feelings for... Someone" he said
"Yes" I said truthfully
"Oh..." He said disappointed.
"I like someone playing truth or dare with us right now"
"Well it can't be Blackstar" Kid stated. I nod. "So it must be, oh damn it!"
"What? Who?" I said a little insulted. I like him and he's upset? What the hell is this?
"First Maka and now you" he muttered. Maka liked him? What is going on?
"Kid slow down and don't jump to conclusions. Now tell me what happened from the beginning"
"About a year ago I had a little crush on Maka and I got up the courage to ask her who she liked. She said Soul. It broke my heart but eventually I got over it. But it kept nagging at me. Then you showed up and you were so sweet and kind to me. You were perfect and I gave you my heart, I showed you my garden, my special place where no one else has ever been but me. And now you are going to leave me for Soul because I screwed up our friendship."
I started laughing at him I couldn't help it.
"You think" I said through giggles "that I like Soul?"
"You don't then who-"
"Even reaper boys are blind, Kid Soul is an asshole to Maka and Trice. But he does that to show he cares about Maka and he's an ass to Trice to cover up the fact that he cares for Maka. But I don't like that kind of stuff. I like it when a boy trusts you from your first meeting. Shows you his secrets. Is nice and kind and sweet and charming and I like it when his name is Death the Kid."
"You like me?"
"Does this answer your question?" I said and kissed him on the cheek. He beamed at me and I'm positive that I was beaming back. It's amazing how you can know a person for a week and it can feel like an eternity. I hugged Kid forgetting about his stupidness and I felt true happiness. We stopped hugging and he looked at me with that expression again and now I know what it is, love.
Just then Patti opened the door with a loud clang.
"TIMES UP!" She screamed at us childishly.
We both came out beaming. We got some looks and then Liz finally said "Alright what the hell did you do in there?"
"Wouldn't you like to know" Kid said playfully.
"Yes I would now tell us! Or would you rather wait for a truth?" Liz said mischievously.
Kid rolled his eyes at her and said "Soul, truth or dare?"
"Dare" Soul said.
"Tuck in your shirt, put an ice cube down it and sing the trollolol song until it melts or comes out" Kid said
"Not cool"
Kid shrugged "you chose dare"
Liz dashed out of the room and brought back a plastic cup with one ice cube in it. Soul stood up, tucked in his shirt put the ice cube in and started singing trollolol while jumping up and down from the ice cube. We all started laughing so hard it finally melted and we got on with our game
"Sabrina, truth or dare?" Soul said.
"Dare" I'm gonna regret that.
"Sit on Kid's shoulders until your turn" shit.
Kid was blushing a lot. So I sucked in a breath and climbed up the couch and sat on Kid's shoulders. Everyone hates me today. To make sure I didn't fall Kid grabbed my knees and made sure not to lean to the left or right.
"Alright Blackstar tr-"
"THE GREAT BLACKSTAR WILL CHOOSE DARE!"
"Switch clothes with Rose for the rest of the game" I said Rose glared murderously at me and Blackstar asked where the two nearest rooms were that they could change separately in. Liz told them where and led the way since Kid was currently occupied. Blackstar practically had to push Rose into the hallway.
A few minutes later they came back, Rose didn't look that bad except for the fact that the pants were two sizes to big for her and Blackstar, well he was wearing a skirt need I say more. Rose muttered something along the lines of 'mother of all fucking things that are fucking fuck worthy, fuckety mother of fuck' and lots of other things with the word fuck thrown in multiple times
We all laughed at them especially Blackstar. And continued Blackstar asked Tsubaki if she loved anyone in this room. She replied with a nope and then dared Trice to sing every thing to the melody of happy birth day until her next turn.
"Death the Kid, truth or dare?"
"Dare"
"I dare you to-o-o, mess up the symmetry, of your outfit for as, long as you can, with out exploding, do it right now, this'll be fun to watch" she sang, repeating the melody once.
Kid slipped only one arm out of his blazer. His eye was twitching like crazy. He was furiously muttering 'symmetry oh, symmetry. I'm trash asymmerticallllllll-' "GARBAGE" he yelled slipping his arm back inside the blazer and straitened it out again. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to me, well looked up at me since I was on his shoulders. I climbed down and he said "Sabrina truth or dare"
"Dare"
"I dare you to go into the room next door and tell someone your darkest secret"
"Fine" I said grabbing his elbow and taking him into the next room smiling. He was surprised, but he went along with it. I had to tell him someday. It might as well be today. I heard someone wolf-whistle as we walked out, probably Blackstar.
We went into a room that seemed to be a guest bedroom.
"You better sit down" I said, closing the door.
"Ok" Kid said "It can't be that bad right?"
I looked seriously at him. "Kid, I'm about to spill my entire reason for being here. Are you alright with that?"
"Yeah I guess so"
"Alright then sit down" he sat and I started my long explanation.
"Ok, so I'm not exactly from here, I'm from some where very, very, far away. I'm from a place called earth. It's a planet in the Milky Way. You see I use my powers to get here. This is a whole dimension away from earth." I said opening a portal to some random place and commanding any animal nearest to push the white board, which was on wheels, through the portal so I could use it. I picked up a marker that was left on the lip of the board. Drawing a diagram as I explained. "So, here is earth, and here's our sun, and here's our moon. And here is a bunch of other planets that orbit the sun, but none of them have life on them. All of that together makes my solar system and a bunch of solar systems together make a galaxy, like the Milky Way. Then a bunch of galaxy's together make a universe. You go me so far?" I said. He nodded not looking at me. Shock spread all over his features.
"This is were it gets beyond most earthly knowledge, a bunch of universes together make a dimension. Lastly, a bunch of dimensions together make the cosmic-sphere. Which is the eternity of space, surrounding that is the eternity of time and no one I know of knows what's surrounding that. The point is though, earth is here and right now we are somewhere here" I said pointing to places on the map I just drew. "I am able to travel back and forth by using a portal" I open a few random portals. Then close them all with one snap.
"Also the reason that I'm always here and that I'm not gone for sometime during the day living on earth is because coming here sort of fucks with the space time continuum. I'm sorry I didn't tell you all this before but that not really the kind of thing you say to some one. Like hi, I'm from another dimension. But I wanted to tell you this before we get serious. I like you Kid, I really do so I'm giving you a chance to decide what you want to do." I said
Kid looked from me to the board to the only still open portal were I got the white board from. And again he looked at me, the board, the portal. Me, board, portal. Me, board, portal. Me, board, portal. Then he put his head in his hands. I walked over and put my hand on his back.
"I'm sorry Kid. I know that this is a lot to take in" I said.
"Is your world perfectly symmetrical?" He asked.
"No" I said.
"Then I can see why you would want to come here! Oh you poor, poor thing" he said hugging me and cuddling me closer like an orphan. "A beautiful and symmetrical creature like you shouldn't be forced to deal with asymmetrical garbage every day!"
"That's what your worried about?" I said
"Yes it's absolutely terrible" he said pulling me even closer so that I was forced to sit on his lap or else my spine would snap in half. He pulled away slightly to kiss my cheek then hugged me even closer. "My poor symmetrical girl"
"Ok Kid. Whatever you say."
"Wait a minute" he said letting me sit on my own "you were from another dimension this whole time and you didn't tell anyone until now?"
"Yep" he shook his head at me and we started ack to the room.
