About seven in morning
Cole woke up. Stretching, the girl yawned and successfully pushed two girls off the bed.
Thump
Thump
"Hey! Cole!!"
"Don't blame me! Teressa made me sore when she slept on us…I needed to stretch!" The said girl lifted her head from a pillow and opposed the responsibility.
"Hey! It's not my fault! You kept stealing the covers! I needed to stay warm somehow!" The girls glared at each other for a moment before turning to the top of the bed.
"RENNN!!!!" Another moment passed as the girls stared at the empty spot of the bed, before realizing that the older sister was not present. "OMB! SHE'S GONE! NOOO!!! WHERE DID SHE GO?!? WHO COULD'VE TAKEN HER?!? REEEEENNNNNN!!!!!!" The girls made a loud crash as they scrambled to get off the bed and ran towards the door; as they opened it, they found sleepy and worried boys (Max, Daichi, Tyson, and Rei) at the door. "REN'S GONE! SHE'S BEEN KIDNAPPED!" Tyson frowned.
"What makes you think she's been kidnapped?"
"BECAUSE SHE'S NOT IN OUR ROOM!" Max blinked at the statement.
"…Doesn't she room with Kai?"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"KAAAAIIII!" The group ran towards the Hiwatari's room and began banging on the door. "KAI! IS REN-" The door opened and the now furious boy stepped out, clad only in his black boxers.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…" The bluenette glared at the group, before turning around and spoke to someone in bedroom.
"They want you." A muffled noise replied, before Ren came around the corner of the room, in a pair of black pajama pants and a big white t-shirt, with a tired expression.
"Can you ladies explain to me that we could hear you from your bedroom that's down the hall?"
"…Umm…" While Hillary and Ming-Ming stared at the ground, embarrassed, Teressa and Cole defended their weird and random actions.
"We wouldn't have done that if you were in our room!"
"You should've been in our room! Why weren't you in our room?"
"You should've-" Ren put her hand over her own face, before turning to her partner.
"How many times am I gonna get this lecture?" The bluenette had an amused expression.
"Not sure." The group gave the two a look, before deciding that they didn't want to know. Ren turned back to the others.
"Now go back to your rooms and change, we need to get ready so we can go back home."
"Yes Ma'am."
"Ma'am?" Ren looked at them. "Just say okay and go."
"Oh…ok." As the boys left, the girls paused for a moment, looking at the two roommates.
"So…"
"…?"
"…"
"Why doesn't Kai have a shirt on?" Ren glared at the girls.
"Some boys don't sleep with one. Why?"
"Just checking…"
"Goodbye ladies." The girls left, giggling and with a slight blush on their faces; Ren sighed, before going back into the bedroom, with Kai close behind. "They're going to be the death in me."
"Hn." They sat on the bed, intending to continue the staring contest that they were participating in before they were interrupted.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…Dang…" The girl blinked away the tears that filled her eyes.
"Hn."
"Fine…you win."
"Told you that you weren't going to win."
"I still had to try."
"Hn. We should start getting ready to go."
"Okay." Ren got her stuff out of her bag, before locking herself in the bathroom, while Kai got dressed in the bedroom. After a while, Ren knocked on the door. "Can I come in yet?"
"Yeah." The girl entered the room to find the Russian boy lying on the bed, reading a book.
"What are you reading?"
"Dragonlance."
"What is it about?"
"It's kind of like Lord of the Rings, but more fighting and plot twists." Ren raised her brow.
"Really? Can I borrow it when you're done?"
"Yeah."
"Kay." They sat and talked for a little bit, until Hiro called from his room. The Hiwatari answered the phone.
"What?"
"That's a nice way to answer the phone, Kai…can you be anymore pleasant?"
"What do you want Granger?"
"Geez Kai…can you at least attempt to be a little polite?" Kai scowled, before tossing the phone to Ren, who barely caught it.
"He wants to talk to me?"
"He wants someone polite."
"Oh…" She put the phone to her ear. "Hello?"
"Ren? What happened to Kai?"
"He gave the phone to me…I guess its too early for politeness."
"I guess…well, can you relay a message to him?"
"Of course."
"Tell him that check out is noon, we arrive at the dojo at one, and once we unpack, we all have a interview with some news channel. Has Rei made up with Cole yet?"
"Nope…she holds grudges for a while…so it's gonna be a bit until she begins talking to him again…but after that, it should move smoothly again."
"Ok. Well I guess that's it…tell Kai and have him get everyone ready. The taxi's come at 12:30."
"Okay."
"Later." The older brother hung up, and Ren put the phone down.
"What did he want?"
"Check out is noon; we leave at 12:30, and after we unpack, we have a interview with a news channel." The bluenette sighed.
"Most likely wanting to know about what happened at the ball."
"Yeah…I'll talk to Cole and see if she can pretend to be Rei's girlfriend for a little bit."
"She's coming?"
"No…but we have to get in the taxis, and there's probably going to be paparazzi there. Right?"
"Hn." The two began packing their stuff, before going to the other's rooms to tell them the schedule.
Noon-ish (a little bit after it, to be precise, lol)
The girls and Hiro were waiting in the lobby, for the boys to check out. Cole was slightly scowling, having agreed to pretend to be Rei's girlfriend, thanks to Ren's persuasive skills. Because of that, the other girls were a few steps away from the older sister, with frightened expressions.
"Get over it ladies."
"But you were scary!"
"I can get worse."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"You have all of your things, right?"
"Yes."
"Good." The Bladebreakers came down the stairs with their thing, meeting the girls in the middle of the lobby. Rei smiled at Cole, who in turn ignored him. Ren raised her brow.
"Cole…I don't think that's how you treat your boyfriend, am I correct?" The cousin scowled, before turning and glaring at her best friend.
"I will treat him however I like, since I don't want to be with him, Ren." The friend glared with equal, if not greater, anger.
"Suck it up. We wouldn't have the issue if you got over your pride. And since you can't do it yourself, I apparently have to do it for you. Now smile and act like you like him…it's not that hard, I'm not asking you to act like Teressa and Max…just like Tyson and Hillary, or Daichi and Ming-Ming…just deal with him."
"Hey!"
Glare.
"…" Cole sighed.
"Fine…but I'm not kissing him."
"I never asked you to…or hug him. Just don't glare at him or any other ugly look. And don't slap him if his hand goes on your back, he's just 'showing his territory'."
"I'm not 'territory'."
"Never said you were, but you know how guys get, just go along with it."
"Why should I?"
"…" Ren gave Cole a look, who began to look worried.
"You wouldn't seriously do that, right?"
"…"
"Ren…seriously…you wouldn't…"
"…"
"Ren…"
"…"
"I'm serious Ren…you wouldn't dare." Ren snorted, before turning around to look at the paintings that were in the room.
"…"
"Ren…"
"…"
"…Okay…fine…I'll play along." Ren turned back around, with a small smirk.
"Glad to have you on board. Now get next to him and attempt to look happy." The cousin did so, and the taxis arrived. They got into the cabs in the same order they did when they went to the ball (Rei, Cole, Max, and Teressa in the first cab; Tyson, Hillary, Daichi, Ming-Ming, and Hiro in the second; Kai and Ren in the last.)
Okay…I'm sooo much better! Thank you so much for the love guys! (Throws lotta lotta love back at readers and reviewers), I'm still sorry for the last chapter, and its crappy-ness…
I was reading through the story (I have the entire story on one document, instead of chapter by chapter), and I noticed that Ren and Kai were beginning to act like Cole and Rei on the talkative level, and a little bit friendly, so I started changing that in the chapter, if you saw. Kai said 'hn' a lot more than he has in a while, and Ren was a little bit more uptight and rude-er. So sorry on their OC-ness…lol…well, I guess that's it! Next chappy is either going to be the ride in the taxi and unpacking, or I'm just gonna skip straight to the interview (bet ya'll weren't expecting that!) THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE LOVE!
