Mandy Kino was in her bedroom, flopped on the bed, tuned out from the world. She often did this, as it was quite relaxing to just lie on her bed, listening to her CD player, or reading a book. Right now however, she was listening to music. Her kitten Mystic was curled up on her stomach, sleeping. The phone rang, but Mandy ignored it, deciding to let her sister answer it. She was comfy, and didn't want to get up. It was peaceful…until Lita opened the door, yelling for Mandy to get up, which startled both the girl and the cat. After gathering her nerves, Mandy looked dully at her sister. "What was that for?" she asked. Lita ignored her. "Serena just called. She said you are late." she told her. Mandy's eyes widened. "Ack! I was supposed to meet Serena at the arcade!" she cried jumping up. "That's what I said.." Lita said sweatdropping. "Bye Lita thanks!" her sister said shutting the door in her face. Lita sweatdropped, shaking her head and returning downstairs.
Mandy looked through her closet trying to find something to wear. Mystic was now curled up on Mandy's pillow. He watched her silently as she pulled out the outfit she had decided to wear. It was a purple skirt, with a white shirt, that had a bow on it similar to her school outfit. She changed into it, then pulled on her brown boots, glancing at the clock. She pulled her hair into a loose ponytail, then grabbed her purse and rubbed Mystic behind the ears. "Bye Mystic. See ya later!" she called scurrying downstairs. Mystic rolled his eyes. "There she goes again." he murmured, falling asleep again.
Mandy ran down the street, heading for the arcade. As she turned the corner, she ran into someone, knocking them both down. "Oh my god. I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed looking up at the person she had run into. She reconigized this person as Mat Konnai, a boy from her math class. He smiled at her, standing up. He held out his hand to her. "It's alright. Where's the fire?" he asked. She accepted his hand, and when she did, she felt some surge of energy enter her. He helped her up. "I'm sorry…I was late for meeting my friend at the arcade…I shouldn't have been running like that…I'm sorry." she said. "Like I said, it's ok." he replied smiling. She looked at him and smiled. "Well, you don't want to be later than you already are. Catch you later!" he said waving, then he walked off. Mandy stood watching him go, then turned and ran into the arcade.
Serena looked up from her milkshake as her disheveled best friend ran in, slipping into the booth she was sitting at. "Hi..Serena.." she said panting. Serena grinned. "Hi Mandy! Look who was late today!" she said laughing. "Gomen Serena…I ran into someone." Mandy explained. Serena giggled. "What's new." she teased. Mandy sighed. She knew that Serena was right. She had a habit of running into people. "But Serena, he was cute!" Mandy said. Serena's eyes widened. "That's new. I've never heard you call anyone cute!" she squealed looking at her best friend. "Finally! Mandy's got a crush!" she cried. Mandy sweatdropped. "Thank you for informing the whole world Serena." she said. Serena sweatdropped. "Gomen." she said. She squealed again. "But it's so cool!" she said. Mandy smiled watching her friend's reaction. She thought Serena was over-reacting. It's not like she would ever go out with this guy or anything. She wasn't THAT lucky.
