Chapter Seven-But where's Kai?

Shanna sat on the coach as April had instructed, wondering what in the world was going on. All April had told her was that they had to watch the HWN (Hiwatari World Network). Shanna had, of course, protested against it but April said that if Shanna wasn't going to watch or touch anything that was made by a Hiwatari company, she might as well throw out her entire room.

"Here you go, it's butter-free because we don't want you to be a, I mean get a, bigger ass." April said and passed Tala the bowl of popcorn.

"Very funny April, very funny." Tala said and rolled his eyes.

April giggled and leaned in to give Tala a quick kiss. Shanna pretended to gag and Rei giggled. April turned around and caught the both of them in the act and gave them her 'evil eye' which just made them laugh harder. April rolled her eyes and sat down, on Tala's lap, which of course Tala didn't mind.

"Okay, we're going to watch this, shut up and respect the HWN." April said and enthusiastically wiggled in Tala's lap.

Tala groaned and grabbed her hips to keep her still.

"Okay guys, get a room." Shanna instructed. "We don't want to see your mating rituals."

"Mating rituals?" April asked shocked.

"Yes, mating rituals." Shanna replied and rolled her eyes. "I mean the whole sitting in his lap thing is bad enough but wiggling..."

"Just because you're not getting any doesn't mean I can't." April said and then clasped her hand over her mouth. Slowly she brought it away. "Sorry."

Shanna sighed. "It's alright. I'm okay with the fact that Kai would rather have his fun with other girls. After all, I can get another guy, can't I?"

Rei yawned. "Of course you can. Just please don't let it be me."

Shanna glared at Rei. "If you don't stop being mean, I'm going to spread the most awful rumors about how big your cock is."

April and Rei started to cough automatically, both of their faces going a dark red.

Shanna looked at both of them and then stared at April, her eyebrow raised. "You are sick."

"What?" April demanded between coughs. "I didn't always know that Tala existed."

Shanna groaned. "But Rei?"

"What? There are worse looking guys then Rei."

"Yah!" Rei agreed. "A lot of them."

"Yah right Rei."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Rei demanded. Everyone else burst into laughter. "What?"

~K~ ~I~ ~M~ ~K~ ~A~ ~I~ ~K~ ~I~ ~M~ ~K~ ~A~ ~I~ ~K~ ~I~ ~M~ ~K~ ~A~ ~I~ ~K~

Kai drummed his fingers on the desk impatiently. He checked his clock again and then went back to drumming his fingers. What in the hell was taking so long to get to the first commercial break? Didn't they understand that this was an important step in getting his Shanna back?

The sound of a heavy dance flooded it's way through the room and Kai looked up, surprised to see his commercial. He smiled and could do nothing but hope that Shanna was watching this.

~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~ ~Å~

Shanna jumped up. "OH MY GOD! THAT'S ME!"

"What was your first hint? What I want to know is why the hell are you on the tv?" Rei exclaimed. "Why wasn't I told that Shanna was going to be on the tv?"

"Don't look at me." Tala said. "I didn't know about this either."

Everyone turned to look at April. April threw her hands up in the room and shrugged. "What?"

"I can't believe you didn't tell us that Shanna was going to be on tv." Rei said and pouted again. "No one ever tells me anything."

"Hey! I should be the one upset! I'm the one that's her boyfriend and I didn't get to know. I should be the first one who gets to know about anything."

Shanna shook her head as both of them began to argue and then she turned her head back to the tv. Another commercial came up and there she was again. What in the hell was Kai trying to do?

Finally one last commercial came up. Kai was there, running down a road all by himself. He stopped and turned to face the camera. He motioned to the emptyness around him and sighed. "This is how I feel Shanna when you're mad at me. I feel like I'm all alone. If you're watching this, please forgive me."

Shanna could feel her heart stop as the commercial changed. Suddenly she turned to April. "WHERE THE HELL IS MY KAI?"

April's eyes widened as Shanna lunged for her.
