Fools Rush In
Well, this is the 2nd story of AitV. Why didn't I just continue?
Because it ended, that's why.
I felt comfortable with it being 8 chapters-if I kept writing that one, it wouldn't have been as good as if I had just started a second part. After all, all things must come to an end. And from now on, I shall copyright my fics! Because I'm noticing plagiarism in these here parts....;;eyes narrow in suspicion;;
Anywho, This is done for all you people who review! Like Jynk, Kurumi, Jay P, Snowri, Sakura*Star, B-chan, Angel from Hell, Yoshi12, and MikomiTenshi. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!
Well, anyway, this has nothing to do with the movie of the same name. I got it from a song lyric. If you can guess what song it's from (and if you now pop music, YOU WILL), I'll take any songfic request! ANY! You heard me! Same for the music right beneath me. It's quite easy too. R &R!
And by the way....am I the only one who thinks Justin from American Idol looks like Eddie?
~*~*~*~
You make me high
I wish that you knew
I wish I could tell you
Together we'd fly
So open your eyes:
Start reading my mind!

Kaori focused in the mirror, braiding her hair into her trademark pigtails. The sunlight wafted through her bedroom window, giving everything an almost expectant glow.
For once, Kaori was somewhat contented with her life.
Orange Explosion Fun Girl was bigger-and her opinion, better-than ever. Ever since Brodi joined up...
//Face it Kaori//, a more mature side of her kidded //The main reason you like it is cause it's flirting you can get away with.//
She sighed. Sometimes she hated her conscience: it always seemed to be right.
Tying the elastic around the right braid, she sighed. It was true: her...feelings for Brodi hadn't diminished. The closer they got as friends, the more she wanted to be to him.
But the friendship was strong: she knew she could always count on him.
And she knew he trusted her.
It was how she knew so much about him. And Marisol...
Marisol. The name made her stomach churn, and for the first time in her life, she truly hated someone. How could she just...have him? He didn't love her, but she never stopped! Couldn't she see she was hurting him more by being with him than she ever could if she left?
Kaori doubted she even cared.
//Come now, Kaori...Time to check your email...// Her breath caught in her throat.
Mac.
She slipped on a kimono and made her way to her computer.
"You've Got Mail!" The friendly voice cried out cheerily---and destroying any illusion of a good day.
Why, may you ask?
Cause Mac and Kaori were going out.
~*~*~*~
Brodi sat Indian style in his small condo, meditating under the morning light. He breathed deeply, allowing him brief refuge from all the ails of life. He smelled the incense-vanilla today. A sweet scent....He rarely used vanilla-he thought it was too sugary to reach true nirvana.
But yet...
Nothing else had worked.
He inhaled deeply. //Clear your mind...focus on nothing but the truth.//
He was to meditate a lot that morning. In fact, with his mind in that calm state, he was able, for a while, to forget.
Forget all about Marisol.
Forget all about SSX
Forget all about Kaori.
Forget all about the time.
~*~*~*~
Kaori was chatting somewhat happily with Mac.
DJBoarder001: so Kaori, are you ready for the Snowdream showoff?
OEFunGirl: Hai! It sounds like fun!
DJBoarder001: can't wait to see ya
Kaori bit her lip, and sighed
OEFunGirl: Yeah.
DJBoarder: See ya then! ;kisses cheek;
OEFUnGirl: Bye!
She logged off quickly, not wanting to see the text anymore. Why!? Why couldn't she break it off!
//Well, that's easy. He's your best friend.//
And as much as she sometimes wished it weren't so, her inner voice was right again. She couldn't have asked for a nicer guyfriend. Sure, he was a little self-centered, and he could do with a bit of maturity...but she could do worse.
But she didn't feel IT.
You know how you're supposed to feel tingly whenever you hold your boyfriend's hand? She didn't feel that.
She didn't feel the sort of gaze that makes you want to drown in his eyes.
And there were certainly no fireworks.
That was the worst, what with all the fans-heck, even fanfiction!-devoted to them.
She felt guilty. She had never meant for things to go so far...but they did. And she was stuck like this.
Forever.

Well, this is the first chapter. It's going to be a bit darker than the first, for obvious reasons. But there will be a happy ending. For everyone! You hear? FOR EVERYONE!!
Read and review folks! But first, an insane messed up quote!
"Beware the cosmic watermelon!"
