Chapter 2: The Fire Of Passion Gets Hotter
"What's wrong? Did this 'total hottie' scare you?" the guy named Duo said mimicking Acire's voice.
"Hahahaha...." Acire laughed, still embarrassed.
"Anyways, follow me." Duo said.
Duo and Acire stepped out of the small room and into a hallway. Acire gazed all around. She was amazed that something like this would be at an almost dead looking factory. Duo led Acire to a door at the end of the hallway. Before he could open it, Acire gasped.
"What's wrong?" Duo asked.
"I left my backpack in the room!"
"Is that all? Just come and get it later."
"Ok."
Duo opened the door and Acire was awed. The room was huge. It was a big auditorium like the ones they have at school. There was rows and rows of chairs and in the middle of it all was a small stage sort of place. There was 4 boys sitting on the edge of the stage talking. That is, until Duo and Acire showed up.
"Hi guys!" Duo said
His voice echoed throughout the area.
"Hi Duo. Wow, we let you go outside for a while and you come back with a girlfriend?" said one of the boys, who stood out with blonde hair and blue eyes. All the other boys had dark hair.
"Shut it, Quatre, "Duo snapped, "She is here about the...job."
One of the boys who had short black hair which he had in a small, tight ponytail, raised his eyebrow.
"Her? But she is a girl...nothing but a girl."
Acire gasped and grew mad.
"I probably have more talent then you will ever have!" She yelled at him.
"What like cooking? Cleaning a house?, I'm sorry we don't need you here, go home." said the boy sarcastically.
Acire collapsed on the floor and tried not to cry in front of the guys on the stage or Duo.
"You don't understand, I don't have a home to go to anymore..." Acire said in a tiny whisper.
Duo looked down at her and felt sorry for her.
"Wufei--" Duo started to say.
Duo ran down to the stage and engaged into a conversation with the guy named Wufei. Acire only caught snippets of their conversation. They were obviously talking about her. Acire stood up and dusted herself.
"Well I guess I won't be helping you out after all. Good luck finding someone who can help." she said, her voice trembling.
She turned around and opened the door.
"No! Acire wait!" Duo called out.
Acire paid no attention and headed out the door. She had to get her backpack first. As soon as she went in the room and got it, she went back into the hallway and looked at all the different doors.
"Which one of these doors leads back outside?" Acire said frustrated.
Acire picked a door that was on the other end of the hallway, opposite of the assembly door. She ran to it and opened it. There was a long staircase leading up. She started climbing it when someone grabbed her arm.
"Acire come back, please." said the person.
It was Duo. He had ran after her. She stared down at her feet.
"No why should I? Your friend is an ass!"
"He didn't mean it, just come back and we can talk to him together. Please? For me?" he pleaded.
He lifted her chin up so that she could see his blue eyes. His gorgeous blue eyes.
"Okay then." she said.
