Chapter 8



Kitty's ponytail flicked around behind her as she walked. She was headed towards the front of the school, where she found Toad the day before... or rather ran into him. After Kitty made her way to the doors she pushed them open with little effort, and emerged from the building.

"Yo Kitty!" Toad called waving his hand.

"Hi Toad! Are you---"

"Kitty zere you are!" Kurt said popping out of nowhere, followed by a hard breathing Lance.

"Kurt, get lost, if she is going to the movies with anyone it's me!"

"I don't zink so!"

They began to argue, and Kitty looked from one to the other, and began to get angry. t

"Look, you two, I'm not like, going with either of you! While you were busy fighting before, I decided Toad and I would see the movie!" She informed them, inturrupting their fued.

With that she grabbed Toad by the hand, and began to walk away, leaving them stunned. She was going with Toad?! Lance crossed his arms and without looking at Kurt left. But Kurt just stood there at loss for words, wondering if his fight with Lance was the smartest thing to do...

Kitty and Toad walked down the street, Kitty was still a little huffy, but calming down.

"You okay?" Toad questioned, he was watching her for the last five minutes, the entire time she had the same look on her face.

"Yah, it's just, like, I wish they would just like get along." Kitty sighed.

"Yah well, why don't you just ditch em both then?" Toad asked, kind of hopeful.

"It's just, um well..." She trailed off, slightly blushing.

"What?" Toad asked

"Well I kind of have.. um... Crushes on them..." Kitty admitted, playing with her fingers. She looked to Toad and noticed that he was silent, though she couldn't figure out why... Kitty couldn't stand the silence so she broke it with,

"So, like, where are the movies?"

"Oh yeah, that's it over there." Toad pointed out a building to their left. He wanted to let go of his horrible feelings. Why did he have to like her? It was killing him inside...

"Let's go then!" Kitty yelled cheerfully, grabbing his hand once more and running over to the theater; Toad following behind. She went over to the ticket booth, but when she saw the prices her eyes grew wide.

"$7.50 for the matinee?!" She cried in suprise. Kitty started to search through her purse, she had only expected it to be around $5.00... at least that was what it was in Chicago...

"I only have $6.75..." She moaned, but stopped when Toad pulled her around the corner.

"Toad what is it?" Kitty asked looking around, she was met with a dumpster filled with stale popcorn and garbage.

'She likes bad boys? Fine, that's what I'll give her'

"Come on Kitty." He said, going over to the handless door. Toad stuck his hand upon it, and then pulled back his arm. Amazingly enough it opened.

"After you..." He said jokingly.

"How do you... but what if we're ca---" She said cut off, Toad made the choice for her by pushing her through the door.

"Kitty with the prices their chargin' they can afford to have us see the 'Ring' for free." Toad grinned. Kitty looked from him to the money she still held in her hand.

"Alright." She agreed smiling.

The pair took their a seats near the front of the theater, watching the previews. Soon the audience filed in, and the movie began. It started up mild enough, two teenage girls talking about boys, until one starts to talk about a tape that can kill you...

"The acting sucks..." Toad laughed

It ends up one girl had watched the tape, and was supposed to die in 7 days. That night. In the end she dies from something unseen. At that point Kitty grabbed Toads arm jumping in fright. Toad felt his pulse quicken. The movie wore on, and you find out this psychic child was killed by her mother and now wants the world to know what happened through the tape. The two heroes (Ex-husband and wife) seemingly put the girl's spirit to rest, but in the end the girl come out of a television and kills the Ex- husband. Kitty clung to Toad, burying her face in his shirt, while squeezing close her eyes. Toad was worried at first, but remembered that he had wore deodorant, and relaxed. He felt --- it was unexplainable, having her in his arms, it was the best feeling he had ever experienced. Toad felt both exhilarated and nervous at the same time... He had the urge to put his arm around her, but the movie ended and Kitty released him.

"Omigod I think that was the scariest thing I have ever seen in my life!" She exclaimed as they exited the theater. It was five o'clock, and the sun hung low in the blue sky. Kitty told Toad that she needed to go home, and so they began walking in the direction. As they went, Toad did a few flips out of habit.

"So how long did it take you to do that?" Kitty asked still amazed that he was able to be so acrobatic.

"Heh, I dunno, I have always been able to do it." He replied landing on his hands.

"Do think you could, like, maybe teach me?" She asked meekly, Toad scrambled to upright himself,

"What?"

"Well, I've always totally wanted to be able to do flips like that, so would you teach me?" Kitty asked again.

"Uh, yeah sure!" He grinned, was it possible that this was the best day of his life ever?

"How about we do it at the park, I'll ask my parents and we can, like go there after school."

"Okay."

Kitty's house came into view, and she turned to him.

"Thanks Toad that was so fun! I'll see you tomorrow 'kay?"

"Uh, yah bye." He replied waving, he didn't leave until she was in the door...
