Chap. 12 : Rehearsal
' Grrrr… Hate my life.' Thought Lei as she opened her laptop.
Neko : Hey Mashi. It was a bad day today.
Mashi : Me too. What happened to you ?
The rest of the groupie was out partying. Lei was in the room and Kai was outside the living room, going online.
Neko : Got to act with Hiwatari for the school play. Bunch of shit isn't it ?
Kai gulped as he typed his reply.
Mashi : Yeah. Saw the play today. And damn it was boring.
Neko : Wait ! You're one of those punks isn't it ? Or were you one of the participants ?
Mashi : Guess. Anyway, it was boring. Dammit all. It was even lousy than a bunch of shit.
Neko : Glad you found it boring. Sigh.
Mashi : Well, congrats anyway.
Neko : Go kill Ivanov for it.
Mashi : Oh I will.
Kai got nervous. ' SHIT !'
Neko : Thanks for the support. You're a great friend to talk to. I read the script and it was a bunch of shit.
Kai sighed. Tala and Denise gave the script to them before they went out. Boy was he shocked when he had to play some embarrassing parts. But the fighting part was okay. At least he still had a stunt male.
Mashi : Really ? How's the script ?
Neko : Firstly, I HAVE TO CRY ! I HATE TO CRY ! But the quarreling parts are okay. I'm gonna have a great time with that. Then I have to pretend to faint and wait for Hiwatari to carry me. That'll make me look like I'm a disable !
Kai shook his head. True, it was all like what Lei said. ' Ewww… I'm gonna make Ivanov pay.'
Mashi : That's gross. Can see how much you hate Kai.
Neko : Well, he's an alright guy I guess.
Mashi : Oh. So what do you think about the others ? I always see that you hang out with them.
Neko : Well, Hilary is funny when she argues with Tyson, Mariah and Ray are okay. Max and Mariam will make a cute and bubbly couple. Tala and Denise are prankster experts. Emily and Kenny are smartasses. Hiro and Anna are bookworms. Kai is well, an alright guy.
Mashi : Oh. Anyway, I gotta go now. See you later.
Neko : Okay. Bye.
Kai closed his laptop before Lei came out of the room, holding her night clothes and a towel, opening the bathroom door.
" So fast. They aren't even back yet." Mumbled Kai.
" I'm POSITIVELY sure that they'll be fighting for the showers. Common sense tells you that Kai." Sighed Lei as she slammed the door, leaving Kai silent.
' She does have a point. Now just let me get my stuff.' Thought Kai.
-
" Why must my life be like this ?" asked Lei pityingly as Lucy snorted at the backstage.
The actors were having the first rehearsal at the hall. Lei was acting the part where Serene had to yell her heart out. Everyone was praising about how Lei could act with the exception of three certain sluts. Most students were also watching the rehearsal.
" I understand Serene." Said Salima who was acting as Celina.
" No you don't. Just leave me alone." Sniffed Lei as Salima sighed.
" If that's what you want." Said Salima.
" CUT !" yelled Tala as everyone clapped.
" Very good." He smiled.
" Yeah. It looked so real. Now all it that's left for is Kai. We'll see how good you are. Let's see if your skills had gone rusty." Smirked Denise as Kai jumped up the stage.
" Hn." He said.
Now was the scene where Kai and Lei will have a little fight over Mimi's injury.
" Take 1." Announced Tala as the show began.
" What do you mean you don't know ? YOU HIT HER !" yelled Lei as Kai's left eyebrow twitched.
" Shut up loser. AND I DID NOT hit the bookworm friend of yours. She just fainted." Snorted Kai. Lei fumed.
" WHAT ! YOU HIT HER ! IF NOT, HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THE BRUISES ON HER FACE !" yelled Lei, pointing at Salima's face which had a blue black on it. It was actually Hilary's make-up.
" I DID NOT ! NOW BEAT IT KID. I'M NOT WASTING MY TIME ON LOSERS LIKE YOU !" retorted Kai.
Lei pretended to look offended. " KAI-"
" CUT ! Lei, this isn't real life." Sighed Tala.
" Oops." Said Lei as she giggled. Kai smiling slightly but a frown replaced it when he realized what he was doing.
" Take 2. ACTION !"
" DAVID ! YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL YOU GIVE ME HER MEDICAL BILLS ! NOW HAND IT OVER !' yelled Lei.
" GO AWAY ! I'M NOT WASTING MY TIME ON AMATUERS LIKE YOU."
" AMATUERS ? AMATUERS ! WHY YOU LITTLE SCUMBAG ! I'LL MAKE YOU PAY !" yelled Lei as she coughed but no one heard it except for Kai.
" YOU CALLED ME A SCUMBAG ?" Yelled Kai as Lucy growled.
" Yeah I did. And here's an advice. GO TO THE DOCTOR ! YOU'RE CRAZY !" Yelled Lei as she and Salima stomped off towards the backstage.
" CUT !" yelled Tala.
" That was beyond awesome." He smiled.
" Uh huh ?" said Kai in a monotone.
" A break for ten minutes." Announced Denise as Lei cheered.
" Here you go." Said Kai as he handed Lei a bottle of water.
Lei looked at it and at Kai's hand. " NO FAIR !" she yelled as everyone looked at her, puzzled. " YOU GET TO HAVE COKE !" she yelled.
Everyone fell and raised their legs in anime style. " Lei, you are really …" said Hilary, trying not to laugh.
" No need to get so fucked up." Mumbled Lucy as Lei glared at her.
" Here you are sweetie." Drawled a voice that sent Lei shivering. She looked up only to see Richard smiling fakely at her.
" Hit the road." She said as she punched him in the eye. " Jerk." She mumbled as she took the can of coke from Kai's hand which was just opened.
" HEY !" yelled Kai as Lei took a gulped.
" Thanks Kai." She smiled as Kai's left eyebrow twitched.
" You're so gonna be dead." He hissed as he shot Lei a death glare.
Lei also shot him a death glare that made everyone cowered down. Kai was burning with fiery flames and Lei looked as if she had black flames behind her.
" Ahem." Coughed Tala when he raised enough courage to break the glaring competition which like, took a century or longer.
" I'll make you pay." Growled Lei as Kai shot her one last glare before he went to buy another can of coke.
" Wow." Said Mariam quietly.
" I think we have another version of Kai in our girls' side. Just that the Kai here is a girl." Mumbled Emily. Lei turned her gaze towards her.
" Emily …" she said as Emily raised her hands in surrender.
" Anyway, when Kai's back, break's over." Said Denise as she and Tala went to discuss something about the show in a corner.
-
" Okay guys. This is the part where we're gonna rehearsal for the big finale." Said Tala, hiding a smirk.
Kai and Lei were sitting on chairs, crossing their legs, the others were either leaning against the wall ( although not as cool as Kai. HA !) or sitting on the floor. Kai and Lei looked bored, the others were all either excited or fidgeting.
" Salima, you're going to leave Lei when she's alone. And this is where you come in Kai. Just act a bit nervous and tell Richard, Jake and Kent that you're leaving the team and Lucy, Fanny and Chloe will act shocked. Mariah, you will also be with Salima when she's going back. Kai, when you see Lei, pretend like you're lovesick or something-"
Kai snorted as Lei giggled.
" Anyway, back to the script. Pretend that you're lovesick or something and approach Lei. Then you tell her how you feel and Lei, you're gonna smile. Kai, you'll take this time and well, kiss her and-"
Kai and Lei fell off their chair.
" WHAT ! K-K-KISS HIM/HER !" they both yelled in unison.
Lucy looked horrified but she didn't say a word. Other than the other three sluts and playboys, everyone else was smirking or giggling away loudly.
" But-" protested lei as Tala hold a hand up.
" No buts. Case closed. Now places everyone." Said Tala as he sat down on his director chair and Denise beside him. Kai and Lei glared at each other before standing up.
-
" Just leave me alone." Said Lei as Mariah and Salima left Lei alone and went towards the backstage. Lei sighed and held a depression look on her face. But inside, she wanted to run for her life.
At another side of the stadium …
" WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU"RE LEAVING ?" exploded Richard. A vein popped from Kai's temple. ' How dare he yell to me.' He thought.
" Yeah, and take care of the team." Said Kai as he walked off, leaving the gangsters in shock as they went off stage.
" Hey Serene." Said Kai after some hesitation.
Lei really wanted to puke. ' HELP RAVEN !' screamed Lei inside her head as she opened her mouth to speak. " Hello David." She said as a smile lit across her face.
" So, alone huh ?" asked Kai as Lei nodded.
Hilary and the others were laughing silently.
" It's coming." Whispered Mariah excitedly as everyone leaned forward to get a better look when Kai was 'lying' ( But will it happen ? )about his feelings towards Lei.
" Look Serene, I don't care about how you think about me but, I always wanted to tell you this." Said Kai, crossing his fingers as Lei screamed in her mind loudly.
" I … I …" said Kai as he tried to force those words out of his mouth.
' DON'T SAY IT !' screamed Lei in her mind as she bit her lip.
" I love you." Said Kai.
Lei nearly screamed blue murder.
" TALA ! I WANT A CUT NOW !" yelled Lei as everyone fell down and raised their legs in anime style.
" You're supposed to kiss her Kai." Said Tala, disappointed at Kai for ruining his masterpiece.
" I don't want to." Said Kai stubbornly.
" Let Ray and Mariah do it." Suggested Lei as two certain neko-jins blushed.
" No. They don't have the same colour of hair. Besides, you two are the best actors around here." Smirked Denise as Tala nodded in agreement.
" No." said Kai flatly.
" C'mon Kai. Like a kiss will kill you." Mumbled Tala.
" Yes it would." Said Kai.
" Same goes for me." Said Lei. " I'm not giving my first kiss away."
Denise sighed. " Do it." She said.
" No."
" Yes."
" No !"
" Yes !"
" No !"
" Yes !"
" NO !"
" YES !" yelled Tala. " I'm director here. Just do it." Said Tala flatly.
" No. We are NOT gonna do it." Said Kai.
" Do it. Or its Lucy you're gonna kiss." Said Tala as Lucy's face brightened up.
Kai felt himself in a hard spot. He bit his lip nervously.
" Choose one or else … " Said Denise. Kai sighed.
" Fine. I'll do it." He said quietly, forcing those words out of his mouth as Lei looked as if she wanted to cry.
" Oh shit." She mumbled.
Slowly, Kai leaned forward as pulled Lei into a gentle kiss, wrapping his arms around her waist. Kai felt a tinge of pink appeared on his cheeks. When they broke apart, Lei was blushing furiously whereas Kai was blushing slightly but his bangs covered it. Everyone applauded loudly. Some were even making wolf whistles. Tala was grinning and Denise was hugging him, tears of joy flowing out from her eyes. The others were hugging each other, cheering loudly. ( I won't talk about Lucy and the other baddies. It'll spoil the scene. ) Lei biting her lip.
' Why must it be me ?' she asked herself this question silently as she sighed, walking towards the backstage. Everyone was grinning from ear to ear.
" That was great Blue." Smiled Ray as Lei shot him a death glare.
" C'mon. You were awesome. You made it look real." Said Mariam as Lei sighed.
" Don't get us wrong. It was only an act." She said as she grabbed her things and walked off.
Kai picked his bag and walked towards a different direction.
" Don't you think we're being a bit far ?" asked Anna as Emily nodded, feeling sorry for Lei and Kai.
" Yeah. I have a feeling we're being a bit too much on them." Said Emily.
" Well, this is only the beginning of realizing something." Said Hilary as Hiro sighed.
" I DO think we're being a bit far." He said as the others sighed.
Okay. So, there you have it. Review plase. Thanks !
