Chapter four:
"Adam? Where are your fangs?!" I demanded curiously.
"Oh…" Adam smiled and opened his mouth allowing two slender fangs to slip down and indent his lower lip.
"I learned how to hide them…" His fangs slowly shrunk and slid back into his gums as Adam closed his mouth once again.
"wow…how can you be out in the sunlight here and not on Kyan?" I asked as I layed back down.
"I don't know…I guess here it doesn't matter…" Adam replied as he pushed a bunch of the blankets away from us. Soft sunlight was pouring in through the window and I remembered what had happened with Cory last night.
"Adam…why did you come back?" My smile faded and my eyes stared out across the floor.
"What are you talking about?! You know I came back to save you…I love you and I would never forgive myself if I let you get hurt!" Adam pulled my chin up with his index finger and stared me deep in the eyes.
"I know that Adam…I love you too…but It's the same with me…Cory is here to kill you…and I cant stand the thought of loosing you…" I started
"Kitana…" Adam interrupted
"No…just wait…I'm not finished…" I wiped a single tear away.
"I want you to go back Adam…I'm serious…leave me here…I can handle it…but I wouldn't be able to if you weren't alive…" I took a hold of Adams hands and watched his silent form for a few minutes. Adams eyes rested on the carpet while I was talking, and for a great while afterwards, but eventually they returned to my face.
"I'm sorry Kitana…but I can't leave until my mission is complete…because that's the only time the next portal will come…besides you know I would never leave you…" Adam smiled smugly.
"Fine…but I want you to promise you wont fight him!" I said firmly
"I cant do that Kitana…" Adam replied quietly.
"Adam he is too strong! I could feel the force of his power radiating off of him! You don't have a chance Adam! Please! Please promise me!" I pleaded, my voice cracked slightly and I had to avert my gaze.
"Look…I can't promise I wont fight him at all…because I would end up breaking it; but I can promise I wont anytime soon okay?" Adam pulled my chin up once again and held it there until I looked him in the eye. I sighed.
"I guess that will have to do for now…" I stood up slowly and forced down a wave of dizziness.
"Where did the others go?" I asked as I opened the guys' door and saw no one.
"They said they would take Tiko for a walk and head to the store…" Adam said, smiling as I pulled off is leather jacket that I was still wearing.
"You kept it…"
"Of course…I never leave home without it…" I grinned and watched as he pulled my small pendant out from under his shirt.
"That's how it is with this…" We both grinned goofily until I realized my sudden thirst.
"You thirsty?" I asked as I walked to the kitchen, not waiting for Adam to answer. He ended up giving me the elevator stare as I left the room but I never noticed. Adam then stood up and followed me out to the kitchen. I showed Adam what there was to drink, but since he didn't know what anything was except for water, he chose that. I had a large glass of chocolate milk. We sat down at the kitchen table and caught up on our past two years. When we were done our drinks and I was just putting them in the sink when the others walked in. I turned to Matt, he smiled.
"Thank you so much Matt…I don't know what would have happened to me if you hadn't shown up." I said as I leaned over and kissed him sweetly on the cheek.
"Hey, no problem…" Matt grinned coolly and I couldn't help but grin back. Kari ran over to me and threw her arms tightly around my neck hugging me tight.
"It's okay Kari…I'm fine…" I said as I rubbed her back gently.
"Oh Kitana, you are my very best friend…and if anything ever happened to you I don't know what I would do…" Kari leaned back and wiped the tears from her eyes.
"None of us would…" Ti said as he hugged me as well. After the final tears were shed and all the hugs were exchanged I glanced over at Adam.
"Well…I guess Adam is going to stay here for awhile eh?" Matt said as he walked into his bedroom and pulled a cot out of the closet. He laid it out on the floor next to T.K's bed, then grabbed an extra pillow and blanket and made the bed. Once he was finished he returned to the kitchen to chat with us some more. We spent the rest of the day talking and catching up, Adam and I told more stories from where I had been transported to Kyan while the others listened intently. At around ten o'clock pm I began to get tired. I was sitting at the table in between Matt and Adam, resting comfortably on Adams shoulder. I yawned and was barely able to keep my eyes open. Kari laughed at my attempts to stay awake.
"Come on Kitana…lets go and get some sleep…" She said as she walked around the table towards me.
"Yeah…I'm pretty tired too…" Mimi said before she bent down and gave Davis a kiss goodnight. I kissed Matt on the cheek.
"Thanks again." I said and then turned to face Adam. I leaned over and gave him a peck on the lips.
"Night…" I said to everyone as I turned and followed Mimi and Kari out towards our bedroom.
"Night!" All the guys said in unison. I walked tiredly to my dresser and searched for a pair of pajamas. I decided on a long Winnie the Poo t-shirt that came down just past my butt. Then I found the matching pair of boxers that were just a little too big, but I was too tired to care. Kari pulled on a pair of green and blue plaid pajama bottoms and gray sports bra. Mimi chose a one piece t-shirt and shorts set that had pink and green snowboarding cows on them. I crawled into my bunk and pulled the blankets up to my chin, Kari and Mimi did the same. Now there was only one problem…who would turn out the light?
"Kari…" I groaned pitifully
"Turn out the light please!!" I said smiling.
"You!" she said laughing
"Mimi…can you please turn out the light?" I called.
"No…I'm too comfortable!" Mimi laughed. I groaned again and chucked my pillow at Kari.
"Hey!" She said as the pillow hit her right in the face. A miniature pillow fight broke out between the three of us. Matt walked into the room suddenly, a wide grin on his face.
"What are you doing?" He laughed as I got hit in the head with a pillow sent flying by Mimi. We all giggled and laid back down.
"Nothing!" We all cried in unison.
"Uh...Matt, would you mind turning out the light?" I asked sheepishly. Matt shook his head and turned to go.
"okay…goodnight…" He switched off the light and closed the door behind himself. Mimi, Kari and I all broke out into fits of laughter. Once we finally settled down we fell straight to sleep.
