Chapter 4, I don't own Rugrats

Kimi:

I glumly watched as poor Phil trailed into his house. He must be feeling the pain of being without his sister terribly, as they have been almost inseparable for as long as I can remember, and now there Lil goes, without a care in the world about her younger twin. Still, I really wished that Phil would do some of the things for me that Tommy does for Lil, like whispering to each other in the classes we have together and passing little notes. I had P.E with Tommy earlier that day, and he wouldn't stop nattering on about him and Lil and about their passionate kiss they had the day before. I really wasn't interested but I politely paid attention until the lesson ended. "Kimi is something wrong?" Chuckie asked me, as I suddenly snapped back into consciousness. "I've been calling you for about five minutes telling you to get a move on but all you were doing was staring at Phil's house." "Huh?" I mumbled. "Oh nothings wrong Chuckie." "Good." Chuckie grinned showing off his silver braces that shone in the evening sunlight. "Then lets go." And we started walking home.

"Kimi, Chuckie, is that you?" I heard my dad's voice as soon as we walked through the door. "Yep!" I smiled as I walked into the living room. Chas was crouched on the floor looking through some old CD's. "Dinner's on the table darlings" My mum shouted, the smell of chips and sausages wafting through the kitchen door. "Great!" I cried, dumping my bags on the sofa and running into the dining room. I slumped onto my seat and started throwing the food down my neck, whilst Chuckie just picked at his food. "Mum, how many times have I told you I'm allergic to sausages." Chuckie moaned. "You are NOT Chuckie honey, your just not hungry, now come on eat up." I giggled at my mum's tone, she still treated us like babies, although we were a lot older now. I finished my tea and went back into the living room, where my dad was still on the floor with a pile of CD's to the side of him. "Oh rats," He muttered, not really talking to me, but to anyone who could have been listening. "I really need to give these CD's to Howard but I can't go out because of my hay fever." He finished the sentence with a loud sneeze to prove his point, and then dug around in his pocket, pulling out a long stream of toilet roll. "I'll go over and give the CD's to Howard!" I cried, happy to have a chance to see Phil. "Oh thank you so much Kimi!" Chas said and then gave me about 15 CD's. "Be back soon!" I yelled to my mum, as I dumped the CD's in a plastic bag and hurried through the front door.

I wandered down the road, the trees blowing steadily in the gentle breeze, and the sun disappearing on the horizon, leaving the sky a soft pink and orange colour. The street lamps were just beginning to light up, some flickering orange and others reddish colour's whilst the they warmed up.

Soon I reached Phil's house and knocked on the tall wooden door. Betty answered it, and instead of her usual cheeky face, she had a stern look. "Oh thank god its you Kimi." She said, biting her nails nervously. I think Phil really needs someone to chat to. "Ok" I murmured, and then added, "I was sent over to give these CD's to Howard." "Thanks sweety, I'll give them to him." Betty replied, taking the plastic bag and opening the door widely so I could walk in. I ran up the stairs and knocked gently on Phil and Lil's bedroom door. "Phil?" I whispered, putting my ear to the door, listening for movements inside. "Phil its me, Kimi." I heard some groaning and someone shuffling towards the door. "Kimi." I heard his voice, but it sounded rough and husky - not the normal Phil tone. He opened the door and I hugged him SO hard. He returned the hug and I started crying, big salty tears ran down my cheeks as I wept into his shoulder, making his t-shirt damp. "Oh Phil," I sniffed between tears, "What has she done to you." He was wearing an old green t-shirt and a pair of navy jeans with holes in the knees. I saw cans of beer scattered around his room and a packet of cigarettes bursting from his pocket. "There's no point in living now." He muttered to me. "She was all I needed sure we had arguments and fights, but now she's ditching her twin for Tommy." I looked at his tired face, bags under his eyes and his hair sticking up like a cockerel. "Phil." I whispered to him, tucking a piece of stray hair behind his ear, "You do have a point in living, I love you. I will always love you forever and ever, and Lil will always love you forever and ever, and everyone will love you forever and ever. Lil is going through a faze of boy madness, but its just a part of growing up. Puberty I call it." I saw a smile tweak on his lips and I grinned. "Lets clean you up." I said to him, and then thought of the cigarettes. "You haven't had any yet have you?" I said, looking him deeply in the eyes. "Any what?" He replied. "Fags" I said. "No." He said taking the packet out of his pocket and reading the warnings. "But thank god you came because I was about to light one." I took the packet and went over to his bedroom window, opening it. I then threw the packet out of the window. Phil just smiled at me. I got him a glass of water to get rid of the taste of beer he said he had in his mouth, and then let him have a tictac to clear the smell. I then made my way to the bathroom and ran a hot bath for him, he thanked me, and said he would be at school tomorrow, and asked me to go on the chat rooms at about 9 pm. I agreed and left the Deville household.

I smiled as I entered my home and gave Chas a big hug as I wandered into the dining room. "What are you so happy about?" He asked me, grinning. "Oh nothing!" I smiled as he ran his fingers through my hair. "I can't believe my little Kimi is growing up." He muttered, but then said sternly, "your school bags are by the stairs, take them to your room and do any homework you have. I moaned as I lifted my bags and heaved them into my room. I didn't have any homework due for the next day, so I stuck my head around Chuckie's bedroom door and grinned. My nerdy brother was studying, over his desk, his large glasses almost brushing the tabletop as he busily worked out his algebra questions. "Hi Chuckie!" I said cheerfully, as I tottered into his bedroom and switched the computer on. "Awww Kimi, I was about to use that to double check my algebra." He moaned. "Sorry Chuck, but I'm using the chat rooms." I cried, as I entered my password and logged onto AOL. There were only three of us in the chat room today, including me.

Poor old Phil, he still haden't got over it. I decided to ring him, and see if I could cheer him up a little.

"Hello?" "Hi Phil, its Kimi." "Hi gorgeous." "Yo, listen, I no Lil is being right out of order but don't let it get to you. Just coz she turns up in the chat room doesn't mean you have to leave it. "I know, I know, but I just couldn't put up with that kind of torture she would give me, ya know, like 'Oh Phil I'm not ditching you I'm just being with my boyfriend a little while' which is an absolute lie in its self, she just doesn't want to tell me that she couldn't care less about me any more." "That's not true Phil!!! She WILL always love you forever, as I said its Puberty." "Then how come you aren't going through it?" "I dunno, maybe I'm late!" "Oh well, see ya tomorrow!" "Yep see ya babe!"

I sighed as I put down the phone. I was encouraging Phil with everything I had, but it didn't seem to be working. I guess he would have to work out some of his troubles on his own.

Ok that's that chapter, hope you like!
