It was about half an hour since Kaylen had discovered Ricky's secret talent, but neither of them had said anything about it. But they hadn't gotten any work done on their project, either.
Suddenly, Kaylen spazzed. A song had come on, her head popped up, and her eyes got really big. Then her face exploded into the biggest smile Ricky had ever seen. She began to sing along to the song. "Please take me ouuuuuuut tonight..." was pretty much the whole song. In Ricky's mind, it was probably the most annoying song he had ever heard, but watching Kaylen was almost worth it. She was bouncing up and down, and you could tell she would have been jumping around her room spazically if he weren't there. She was also lip-synching with perfect timing. Ricky was trying not to smile, but it was hard not to. Kaylen was just so...animated. Goofy. Weird.
"Holy shit!" Kaylen exclaimed after the song ended. "It's 5:00, and we haven't gotten ANYTHING done!!"
"Yeah, maybe we should get some done."
"Yeah. Any ideas?
"Not one. You?"
"Um...well...actually..." Kaylen began.
"'Um...well...' what, Kaylen??"
"Um...maybe you could...draw some pictures to put on the board?" Kaylen said, more as a question than a statement. Ricky was taken a little aback. HE knew she had seen his drawing, but he had hoped she wouldn't mention it at all. He didn't want the whole world to know that he was an artist. He didn't even like using that word...he thought it made him sound too sappy. Like he was one of those artists that goes around in a beret and paints people on the street. He didn't want to be seen as that. He liked being known as the badass. No one messed with him.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Kaylen said automatically. She was absorbed in her thoughts.
"Dinners ready." A tall girl with banana blond hair said. "Ooooh," she squealed. "Who's your friend??"
"Stace, this is Ricky. We're doing an english project together. Ricky, this is Stacey, my brother's girlfriend."
"Pleased to meet you." Stacey said to Ricky. Then she turned to Kaylen. "Noting romantic at all?" She asked. Kaylen turned red.
"No."
"Are you suuuure??" Stacey pressed on.
"Yes."
"Is he staying for dinner??"
"I guess. If he wants to."
Stacey turned to Ricky. "Ohhhhhhh!! Do you want to Ricky??"
"Um, I guess, if no one minds." Ricky replied.
"Ugh, Stace. LEAVE!" Kaylen said. She sounded extremely aggrivated.
"Awww...Poor Kay-Kay. Am I bothering you?" Stacey said, in an annoying baby voice.
"YES!" Kaylen said angrily. "Now go downstairs. We'll be down in a few. We have to pick this mess up."
Ricky looked around. Despite the fact that they hadn't gotten any of the project done, that had succeeded in making a fairly large mess. He shuffled over to where they had put out a pile of blank papers, and proceeded to pick the scattered pile up. Kaylen crossed to the other side of the room, picked up the posterboard, and lay it on her bed.
"Sorry about that. Stacey is nice, but she overreacts a lot. And just because she's dating Brian, she feels the need to act like an older sister to me. Believe me, that act got old...fast. I'd like her a lot better if she didn't."
"It's okay."
"Thanks. You don't have to stay for dinner, if you don't want. Considering how she's gonna act, I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave." Kaylen said 'she' with a little contempt.
"Actually, I promised my brother I'd be home by quarter to six. I don't know when my mom is gonna get home, and Eric doesn't like to be home alone. He's only 6."
Why did I just tell her that?? Ricky thought. I can't just go around telling every single person about my home life!!
"Oh...okay. I understand. Follow me. If we dart around the kitchen and through the living room, we can get you out of here without Stacey noticing."
"Alright. That's probly be good.
Kaylen led him down the hall. They had to walk very slow so that the floor wouldn't creak, as the house was very old. When they got to the top of the stairs, Kaylen whispered, "Watch out for the 4th step down. It creaks. The rest are okay though."
"OK." Ricky and Kaylen both skipped the 4th stair very carefully. Once they got down the stairs, they waited until they were sure Stacey was in the kitchen, then darted past the kitchen door, through the living room, and to the front door. When they got outside, Ricky walked across the driveway to his bike.
"Um...considering the fact that we accomplished nothing today, we should probly get together again tomorrow. You can come here, since i have all the stuff already."
"Okay."
"Yeah, and try to think of some ideas too, so that way when we start we can pitch ideas, rather than spending all day trying to come up with one. Okay?"
"Yup." Ricky got on his bike and started to ride away. He stopped and turned around. "Wait. What time tomorrow?"
"How about...noon-ish? You can have lunch here if you want.
"Okay. See ya tomorrow.
"Yep. Bye."
