Chapter Twelve: Doing the chicken dance in a movie audition
Kai yawned as he looked at his watch and then back at the person at the head of the table. Why on earth his grandfather thought this would beneficial, he would never know. Kai already knew how to do this kind of stuff and having to do this when didn't really need to was just annoying. Then again, Maybe Voltaire was just using Kai's experiencing this meeting as an excuse to not be here himself. It was quite possible that the older Hiwatari didn't like these meetings anymore than Kai did.
Kai smirked at that.
Then Kai sighed and decided to think about something else. What else was there to think about? Well he had another audition today and thankfully it was the last one. They had even said that it wasn't as stupid as the rest of the auditions had been, well actually Leslie had said that. Leslie had said that they were just going to make Kai do a simple reading, like they had at the beginning, and they were going to weed people out by that. Kai didn't exactly understand how they were going to do that but eh, he was sure that he would figure it out.
"So Mr. Hiwatari-" the presenter said with a shaky voice. "-did you, do you..." He took a deep breath. "What do you think of our probability in this?"
Kai snapped back to attention and glared at the people that looked at him with surprise for not being paying absolute attention. They all looked away and Kai mentally took names down.
Kai leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling. "I think that you need to work on getting a better presenter." Kai said simply. "I will go over your case again next week but this time, bring someone in who doesn't trip over his tongue." Kai glared at the presenter. "This meeting has been adjured."
Kai got up, out of his chair and made his way towards the door that lead to his office, he opened it and heard the voice of some female calling his name. Kai turned around and ended up face to face with one of the presenter's supporters, so to speak.
Kai snorted at that, if this guy thought that bringing a nice looking girl with him so that Kai would pay a more generous look at the presentation, he was wrong. Besides Kai didn't need that kind of people to get anything. He had Krys.
"Can I help you?" Kai asked, not moving from being two inches away from this girl's face and just glared. She backed up immediately and realized that she was definitely in the wrong.
"I'm sorry, I just was wondering if you could tell me when exactly I was going to get this second chance."
"Go talk to my secretary." Kai said simply. She sighed and turned away, not willing to say anything else to Kai's face anymore.
Kai smirked, that's what she gets for thinking that every rich guy was just going to throw themselves at her. Being rich meant you had more options so there weren't that many rich guys that didn't have a couple girls, at least, to choose from. And Kai had already made that choice.
Kai yawned and stretched. He didn't have any more meetings scheduled for today so he go home now after looking at any paper work that his secretary had left on his desk during that last meeting.
Kai closed his office door behind him and looked at his desk, nothing was on it. Kai grinned, he had to like his secretary.
Kai grabbed his coat and closed the blinds on his window. He could now go home and have a nice shower before he had to go to the audition. Kai sighed and made a note to make sure that the chicks weren't in the bathroom this time. Kai was still recovering from the shock of being jumped on by a chick in the middle of a shower.
Kai groaned at that thought. He wasn't sure how, but the chicks had decided that he was their father. They didn't follow him around as loyally as they would follow around Rei but they were still there most of the time. Kai couldn't wait to give Rei back his 'babies' today.
"I'm out Sharon." Kai said as he passed his secretary on the way out. Sharon just nodded and waved him away. Kai chuckled, that was Sharon for you. She certainly wasn't going to keep here Kai all day so that he could bug her into giving him some more work so she was ready and willing to get rid of him. It made Kai's life a lot better.
Kai climbed into his car and turned the key. He wanted to get home and fast. He turned around to back out of his parking spot and saw that damn presenter again standing in his way. Kai sighed and beeped the horn but the guy just stood there as if he was extra determined.
"Fuck." Kai said with a glare. "I'd just have to have one of those guys that treat this stupid thing a little more seriously than they need to." Kai sighed and honked his horn again then he rolled down his window. "If you don't get the hell out of there I'm going to run you over."
"You just have to say yes to our business." The guy said. "Please?"
"I told you." Kai said with a scowl. "You can come back in two weeks and try again. But for right now I'm not impressed with either you or your presentation. And if you don't get the hell out of the way, I'm going to revoke my request for you to come and see me in two weeks."
The guy sighed and stepped out of the way and Kai backed up, after rerolling up his window and drove off. What a freak! This was going to be a long day.
Kai pulled in his driveway and sighed, sitting in the car for a minute more than he had to. He really didn't want to go in there and see what the chicks had left for him to clean up today. Definitely didn't want to go see that. Kai breathed out and then got out of his car.
It would only be worse if he left them for any longer than he had to. Kai opened the door and wondered why he didn't just put them in the cage when he left and then heard the familiar crying of one of the chicks. Oh yeah, that's why.
Kai hated the crying more than he hated the mess. The mess he could clean up, the crying he couldn't. All of a sudden eight chicks were at the door in front of him, all of them peeping and jumping up and down happily, including the one that had been crying just a few seconds again. Guess that one had been missing Kai.
Kai scooped down and patted them all on the head in hello and then walked to the kitchen, where he left his briefcase and refilled the chick's water and food dishes on the floor.
Kai smirked. "I feel like I'm feeding a dog but instead there's eight of them and none of them are bigger than my hand." The chicks just looked up at him and blinked. Kai rolled his eyes. "Yah, yah. I know, I know. You don't like being compared to the dog."
Kai rolled his eyes but said nothing and ran upstairs, closing the bathroom door quickly. "Safe."
No sooner had he said that then all eight chicks were heard from outside the bathroom door, crying. Kai banged his head on the door. "Why me?"
*****
Raye snuggled into Joey and listened to the continous sound of the rain that kept any notion of an awkward silence from happening. Raye's eyes drifted to Bryan and Tempest. Raye blinked and looked away, not wanting to linger too long on the direction that her thoughts were taking.
So anyways, Kai has my chicks." Rei said wtih a defeated sigh. "And he's not returning my phone calls and won't open the door and-" Rei's head fell into his hands. "Oh what do you think happened to my poor chicks? Do you think they're okay? Do you think Kai got rid of them?" Rei began to shake.
Hannah put her arms around him. "It's okay Rei, I'm sure that Kai didn't do anything to your chicks. I'm sure they're just fine. I'll bet he's just doing this to make you upset."
"Kai wouldn't do that." Krys said in his defense. "Rei probably pissed him off and Kai's just taking a little bit of revenge."
"On chicks?" Hannah asked, disgusted.
"Oh stop fighting." Tempest snapped. "We all know that Kai will give the chicks back so why anyone is worried I don't know."
"Yeah well, I'm going to phone him." Krys got up and went over to the phone.
Raye rolled her reyes. "He's not going to answer."
"Yes he will." Krys growled.
'If you say so."
"I do." Krys dailed Kai's number and then hung up. "He's in a meeting."
"Oh?" Tempest asked in disbelief. "And how exactly did you know that? Did his pretty little blonde secretary tell you or are you just using your 'girlfriend intuition'? Hm?"
"Very funny." Krys said. "As a matter of face, he told me that he was going to be in a meeting today about three days ago. He had it planned for that long."
"Ah huh. Sure." Tempest rolled her eyes and snuggled into Bryan. "if you say sso Krys, if you say so."
Raye sighed and got up. "Would y'all stop it? You should know better than this." Raye moved to where her keys were hanging. "Come on, auditions start in an hour. Lets go get something to eat."
Everyone looked at each other and then sighed. There was nothing better to do.
*****
Kai exited the bathroom with his eight little followers behind him. Kai sighed, this was inhuman. Kai couldn't wait to get these stupid chicks back to Rei, and fast.
Kai walked past the answering machine and sighed. There was ten messages and he knew for a fact that most of them were from Rei, asking about the chicks. The only thing was, did Kai think that anyone else had phoned him?
Kai sighed and pressed the 'read messages' button. The answering machine instantly kicked into action. "Message one, recorded at seven thirty-six AM."
Rei's voice dominated the room. "Kai! I know you have to be home sometime. You can't just stay away from your house. Kai! I need you to pick up or phone me back or something. What did you do with my chicks? Kai? Kai?"
"End of message one." The answering machine said cheerfully. "If you'd like to listen to-" Kai quickly pressed three and went to the next message. "Message two, recorded at eleven forty-nine AM."
Rei's voice came over the room again and Kai rolled his eyes and just quickly pressed three.
"Message three, recorded at eleven fifty-two AM."
"KAI!" Rei's voice yelled and Kai almost jumped but regained composure and pressed three again.
"Message four, recorded at twelve twelve PM."
"KAI!" Rei's voice again and Kai pressed the next button for the third time.
"Message five, recorded at one twenty-three PM."
"Kai Hiwatari." Voltaire's voice said over the phone. "About the fact that you let some company have another chance. You and I are going to have a very long talk about that. You know better than that. You'd better phone me before my ten o'clock meeting tomorrow."
"End of message five. If you'd-" Once again the button was pressed to go on. "Message six, recorded at one forty-six PM."
"Kai! I want my-"
"Message seven, recorded at three o'clock."
"Hey Kai, it's Tala. Would you please tell Rei what you did with the chicks before he has a heart attack and does something stupid. I realize that you were mad at us but you can't be this mad, right?" Tala inhaled. "Thanks Kai."
"End of message seven." The answering machine didn't even have a chance to say what it wanted to next. "Message eight, recorded at three oh-two."
"Kai Hiwatari." This time it was Krys. "If you don't get Rei back those stupid chicks I'm going to come over there and murder you. I realize that you think you're teaching him a lesson but don't you think that this is a little harsh? You'd better give those chicks back. That's all I can say. Bye."
"End of message eight. If-" If the answering machine had feelings it was probably mad by now because it had been interupted so many times. "Message nine, recorded at three oh-six."
"KAI!" Rei's voice sounded really desperate now. "Please Kai...I want my chicks back."
"End of message nine-" Again the answering machine was interupted. "Message ten, recorded at three oh-seven."
"Kai? Are you there? Auditions start in an half an hour. Get your ass over here." That was Tala. "Bye."
"End of message ten." Kai sighed and pressed the 'stop' button.
Kai rolled his eyes and looked at the chicks. "Ready to go back to your mother?" The chicks all cocked their head and peeped. "Good, 'cause that's where we're going now."
*****
Shara sighed as she waited for Ttala's car to pull in the parking lot. His friend Rei, and his girlfriend, were already here, as was the rest of the 'group'. Shara sneered. How dare those jealous want-to-bes attempt to keep her and Tala apart any longer. Shara was going to have tala whether they wanted her to or not. And there was nothing that any of those freaks could do about it either. Especially when Shara worked her plan into action and got a picture that would have Aurora steaming at Tala. Shara smirked, and then Shara would be able to move in. The greatest part was that no one would be able to connect her to this incident. It was completely and totally perfect and all she had to do was switch Tala's script with her 'improved one'.
Shara giggled, that would be easy enough. One of the script managers had the hots for her, it would be a sinch to slip it in. Tala and Aurora will be broken up before the end of the day! Oh, it is so difficult being so perfectly geniously evil.
Shara spotted the red-headed script manager and headed over to him. She knew that Tala was going to be second to audition, so all she had to do was get her script second from the top. Piece of cake that would be.
"Iain?" Shara called out to the red-head. "Iain!"
"Yes?" Iain asked and then turned around, quickly becoming as red as his hair when he saw just who was calling him.
"Iain! I dropped my key. Can you help me find it?" In about three point six seconds, Iain was down on his hands and knees, attempting to find the lost key.
"Where did you lose it?" Iain asked as Shara walked towards the pile of scripts.
"Um, just a few feet in front of you." Shara called back as she lifted the top script and placed hers underneath it.
"Found it!" Iain said triumphantly, turning around and standing up.
Shara quickly let go of the first script and didn't notice as it fluttered to the ground. "Oh thank you!" Shara squealed an dtook the key from him. "I'd better be going now. See you around Iain." Shara winked and then walked away.
When Shara was gone, Iain looked back at his pile and noticed the script on the floor. "Stupid thing, trying to get away from me." Iain picked it up and put it on the bottom of the pile. "Alright, lets go and get these things to the directors."
Iain proudly picked up the pile and headed to the director's room, Shara's script laying on the top...
*****
"Look. There's Kai's car." Rei said all of a sudden, leaping up off the ground where he was sitting. "Lets go get my chicks back."
Hannah got up with him and slowly everyone else followed suit. "You'd think he actually was their mother for Pete's sake." Krys whispered to Aurora who just shrugged and leaned into Tala.
For once Kai's roof was up and his tainted windows all rolled up. Krys loved this car but preferrred to have all the windows down. Krys wondered what exactly Kai was up to.
Rei banged needlessly on the car window. "Kai! Get out here! I want my chicks back!" Rei kept hammering away on the car window until he heard the familiar click of the door lock and Rei stepped back.
Kai climbed out, his best (or at least one of his best) business suits were on. A very sharp black suit which Kai had paired with sunglasses. If Krys wasn't already going out with him, she'd probably be after him right now.
Kai slammed his door shut and looked around. Within a second Rei had his fingers around Kai's neck and was squeezing. "Kai Hiwatari, you'd better get my chicks to me right about NOW!"
Kai glared at Rei, which made Rei back off a little bit and then Kai pulled at his collar to straight it and then he turned and walked to the other side of his car and opened it. Eight, happy, hyper, curious, fluffy chicks hopped out and began running to and fro.
"My chicks!" Rei screeched and went for them.
The chicks heard that noise and all peeped, scurrying to get behind Kai's legs, obviously for protection. Kai laughed and moved out from in front of them. "Looks like they want to get away from your whining as much as I do."
Rei glared and sighed. "Mean jerk."
Kai chuckled and looked down at his feet. "Alright chicks, go find your mother..."
The chicks all looked innocently up at Kai and seemed to be pondering his actions as Kai motioned over to Rei. Then the chicks all clucked and ran over to Rei's feet, jumping up and down madly. Kai beamed and leaned down to sweep them up.
Krys gave a pointed look at all of her friends. She was gloating in the fact that all of her friends had been wrong about Kai being mean to the chicks. Obviously the chicks just adored Kai and they wouldn't do that if Kai had been mean to them.
Just then a little crying noise started. Everyone looked around frantically for the source and eventually everyon'es eyes fell on one of the chicks.
"What's wrong with it?" Rei asked as he attempted to soothe the chick by rocking it back and forth. "Why won't it stop crying?"
Kai rolled his eyes, or at least Krys was sure that he did, and walked over to Rei and took the chick from Rei's hands and looked at it. "Would you just stop it?"
The chick looked at Kai for a moment and then peeped happily and jumped up and down. Rei shrugged and took the chick back, which instantly restarted the crying episode. Rei quickly gave it back and growled. "What did you do to it? You poisoned its mind against its own mother."
Kai rolled his eyes as he took off his sunglasses and neatly foled them into his pocket. "Look Rei, I did no such thing. This one just needs to get used to you again, that's all. She cries everytime that I leave the house."
"Really?" Rei asked, tilting his head as he looked at the chick that Kai was still holding.
"Trust me, she does. And the rest of them cry when you put them in a cage and they can't see you anymore." Kai shrugged. "You'll get used to it pretty quickly. Or go mad with the crying."
Rei sighed and looked at the chick that was following Kai around now since Kai put it down. Rei wordlessly shook his head. "Well whatever happens, you're keeping that chick. I'd never be able to stand that much crying!"
The chick peeped happily while Kai grunted.
*****
Kai was called first into the 'reading room'. From outside, Kai could have sworn that it was just a broom closet and that they were seriously just kidding him about the fact that he was going to have to read in that room. Then Kai had gone in.
From inside, Kai knew that it was a broom closet. It had been cleaned out before they used it for this stupid thing but anyone with a brain could tell that it was a broom closet. And there, about three feet away from Kai were the judges, looking at him and smiling, though they were completely squished into the closet with their chairs. Kai just raised his eyebrow and shook his head. This was going to be one low-budget movie and Kai didn't know if he actually wanted to be apart of it.
"Just take a script off of the stand and READ it." Jeremy said, empathesizing the word 'read'. Kai smirked, he knew what these two were up to. They just wanted him to read it and not do any actions. Not that Kai would have anyways, but now..now Kai was interested in flunking this. And what better way to do so than do just screw up the final cut?
Kai grabbed a script and flipped it open. Kai's eyes opened wide. No wonder they didn't want anyone to act this out, this was absolutely horrible. It was disgusting and Kai knew disgusting. He wasn't that stupid. Kai shuddered. Well it wasn't too late to back out now. Kai looked at the faces of his future 'directors' though and shuddered. Forget that!
{A/N: No this isn't Fyne Inverse's script..This is 'Shara's'..*nods* just so you know ^_^} Kai took a deep breath. "First of all my name is Kai Hiwatari and I'm 15 years old. I have a girlfriend currently and her name is Krys but I most definitely do not love her. I just think that she's a horrible person and if I could, I would go and kill her." Kai made a disgusted face. "And I just think that you're lovely." Kai sighed, knowing this was his big chance to blow it and he threw himself at Sandra.
Sandra squealed as Kai seemed to be attempting to tackle him.
"I LOVE YOU!"
*****
Shara smirked as she thought about the geniusness of her plan. She just had to edit her tape and wipe out Kai's audition before Tala's and Rei's afterwards and she'd be all good. No one would know that it was her that did it and Aurora's temper would carry it from there on. Tala wouldn't know what hit him, the poor guy. Shara shrugged. Too bad, he should have came to her when he had the choice. Now she would force him to.
Tala would be so upset because Aurora hated him and he didn't know why that he wouldn't question Shara coming to comfort him. Then she would slowly move in, become the 'blacklash' and then she would keep him from getting away.
Shara giggled, this would be soo easy.
*****
{A/N: Okay I'm not going to drag this chapter out forever...I'm just going to show you Tala and Rei's auditions so that you can see the actual script that Fyne Inverse wrote me because I think it's kinda funny ^_^ plus I said that I would use it and in case you didn't know..she's scarey when she's mad lol}
Tala sat in the chair that he was 'assigned' to sit in. Tala growled, it had been almost an hour since Kai had gone in there. What on earth were they making him read in there? Kai still hadn't come out and no one else had been called in. It was stupid and frusterating. Who did these directors think they were? Did they think that they were going to win any scout points by keeping him waiting this long? Well guess what, they weren't!!!
Tala was about to get up and leave when someone opened the door of the 'reading room' and peeked out. "Tala? You may come in now."
Tala growled and got up, waved to Rei who was occupying himself with his chicks and then walked into the room....Kai had been right, it was a broom closet.
Tala rolled his eyes, he wasn't going to work in a movie with this kind of conditions. Maybe he should pull a 'Kai' and just 'read' the script and not do anything else. Tala nodded, that was exactly what he was going to do.
"Take a script off of the pile and just read from it." Sandra said simply and then motioned to the pile of scripts.
Tala did so, opened it and then cleared his throat. "Hello my name is, say your name." Tala looked up and saw that neither of the directors had even blinked. Maybe he hadn't made it clear enough that he wasn't doing what they wanted him to. "I was born in, say wherever you were born." Tala looked up again, still nothing. What in the hell was going on? They should be at least a little upset or something. Maybe they really don't like this script or aren't even listening to me. Tala decided to speak a little bit louder. "And I'm the, say what place you have in your family." Tala growled when he still didn't get a reaction.
"Keep going Tala." Jeremy coaxed. "You're doing great."
Tala blinked. What on earth was that supposed to be. Tala bit off his frusterations and continued to read. "I like to dance like a duck, make a duck-like dance please-" Tala growled again. "And I'm secretly a nudist, take your shirt and pants off please." Tala bit his tongue in his attempt NOT to yell at the directors. "And I really love your work, blow a kiss to the directors" Still, they didn't seem surprised he wasn't doing what the script told him to. "Please include me in your play, kneel in front of the directors and bow your head please." Tala gave up. "Stand up, gather your things and exit the room quietly." Tala growled, threw the script at the directors and left. Stupid SOB's.
*****
Rei watched as Tala stomped out of the room and ran out into the parking lot. Rei shrugged, guess something bad had happened to him in there. Rei shrugged and picked up his chicks and had them follow him into the room. Then he looked around him.
It was broom closet, that was the first thing that Rei noticed. Then he noticed a pile of scripts in front of him. Rei picked one up.
"Just-" Sandra coughed. "-read that."
Rei nodded. He looked over it, it shouldn't be too bad. Rei smiled, he was going to make this the best script reading they had ever heard and that's all there was to it. Rei beamed and then cleared his throat.
"Hello, my name is Rei. I was born in China." Rei blinked when they looked at him and sighed. Rei didn't get it, what was wrong with his reading? Maybe they wanted more enthusiasm. Rei started bouncing up an ddown. "I'm the eldest in my family." {A/N: Yeah yeah yeah, i don't know if he is or if he isn't or if he's an only child so don't flame me if i'm wrong *nods*} Rei blinked again. "I like to dance like a duck." Rei giggled and then went around in circles in his version of a 'duck dance'. "And I'm secretly a nudist." Rei did a nice little strip tease. His shirt ended up on one of the chick's head. "And I really love your work." Rei decided to take the 'blowing a kiss' thing furthur and he went and kissed Sandra on the check. "Please include me in your play." Rei kneeled in front of the directors and bowed his head. Then Rei stood up, gathered his stuff, called to his chicks and exited the room.
As Rei left he realized why he hadn't seen Kai go back through the main room...it was because there was another door.
As Rei exited the room Sandra and Jeremy just exchanged looks.
*****
Shara was going through the last phases of her plan. The directors were almost done with everyone that they had to go through. Then everyone, and their friends, would be herded in here so that they could be shown the results. At the moment everyone was staring at the front of the room, Shara would turn on the projector and BOOM, Tala would be hers.
Shara couldn't believe that this plan hadn't come to her before. It was so ingenious. So perfect. So flawless...
"Now, I want you all to head in this room." Shara heard someone call and Shara chuckled to herself. That's right Aurora, come in here. I want you especially to see EXACTLY what Tala thinks of all of Sandra. Shara continued to giggle.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen. I know that most of you in the room were in the audition process one time or another and I hope that you all find the people that we choose to be people that can think are great." Jeremy said with a smile.
"So for the final result-" Sandra started.
"We chose-" Jeremy continued.
Shara decided to, at that exact moment, turn on the video tape. All of a sudden there was a murmur across the crowd and Shara came out to look at the screen.
And saw, to her horror, Kai Hiwatari standing on the screen.
Kai raised his eyebrow and shook his head. He looked like he was in disgust at where he was. And he probably had a reason to be because he seemed to be in some sort of closet, obviously where they were taking the final auditions.
Jeremy smiled and looked at Kai warmly. "Just take a script off the stand and READ it." Jeremy was so obvious with the empathesizing that Kai would have to be an idiot to do anything that involved him do a reaction.
But then Kai smirked and everyone in the room knew that the last thing he was going to do was to just read it. Then Kai flipped open the script and his eyes went wide and the only person in the room that knew exactly why, was Shara.
Shara was thinking to herself as she watched what was going on. FUCK! How on earth could my plan go bad? What happened? I know I put the script in the right spot! Why? Why? WHY?
For a minute it looked like Kai wasn't going to act anything else and then Shara would be safe. But then Kai looked at the faces of the directors and shuddered and Shara knew that wasn't going to happen.
Kai took a deep breath. "First of all, my name is Kai Hiwatari and I'm 15 years old. I have a girlfriend currently and her name is Krys but I most definitely do not love her."
Shara could see her life flash before her life. Krys wouldn't be fooled by this. Krys was going to be looking for blood and most likely not Kai's.
"I just think that she's a horrible person and if I could, I would go and kill her." Kai made a disgusted face.
Shara figured that was the look people were going to give her when they saw her face once Krys was done with her.
"And I just think that you're lovely." Kai sighed and Shara wished she could make it stop right now.
Kai threw himself at Sandra. Literally.
Sandra and Shara both squealed at the same time.
"I LOVE YOU!" Kai yelled and began to leave kisses all over Sandra's face.
Shara looked over at where Krys was sitting and saw her scanning the crowd. Then Krys' eyes went over to where Shara was standing and glared. She jumped up and started running for Shara. Shara screamed.
She was dead meat!
*****
Kai didn't want to think about what had just happened. Someone had taped his audition and that wasn't really that cool. Then Krys had got up and ran after someone, probably who she thought had taped him. Kai shrugged, oh well, at least it's over. Kai got up and stetched, only to have Sandra and Jeremy head over to him.
Sandra handed him a piece of paper.
"I want you to sign this." She said with a smile. "We've decided to sign you."
Kai looked at her and looked her expression up and down. Then he chuckled and pushed the paper into her chest. "Forget it lady, I don't want anything to do with you." With that Kai got up and headed over to where he was sure that Krys had gone.
Sure enough he found her. And Shara. Kai smirked and leaned against the wall, letting Krys get a few more punches in before coming in and pulling her away, whipping her around and pressing his mouth against hers.
"Ready to go?" Kai asked.
"Yeap." Krys said with a smile, kicking Shara again and then following Kai out to the car. "So who won?"
Kai climbed in the car and Shara did the same. Kai pulled out of the parking lot, the top now down and the wind rushing over them. Kai headed for the free way.
"Well? Who won?" Krys asked again.
"I did."
"Oh?" Krys sighed and then shook her head. "I'm so proud of you. You'll have fun. Sure you won't have any time for me but you deserve-"
"I turned them down."
"You did?" Krys didn't try to hide her pleasure at that. "Did I ever tell you that I love you?" Kai chuckled and Krys blushed. "I didn't mean it-"
Kai waved her off and they sped down the freeway, listening to nothing but the wind.
Then Kai grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "I love you too."
{A/N: And that's the end of it ^____^ What do you think? I expect to get a review (at least one) for this chapter !! lol..my hopes aren't that high..i haven't updated for two months, my readers have probably all got bored and ran away *sobs* I miss you guys !! *sobs some more* I think I'm going to do a 'recognition chapter' next...list all the people that supported me during this fanfic (and it's prequels) So look for that...it should be up within a day or two...
BTW...have you noticed how I'm completely and totally ignoring the girls in this fanfic except for when I need them for little things (like driving Tala home)????? I didn't notice that before..okay, I'm going to write a girl into this chappter, I promise *nods*
Anyways I also want to say thank you to Fyne Inverse who gave me the script that I'm going to use for this chapter ^_^ thankies
Chapter Twelve: Doing the chicken dance in a movie audition
Kai yawned as he looked at his watch and then back at the person at the head of the table. Why on earth his grandfather thought this would beneficial, he would never know. Kai already knew how to do this kind of stuff and having to do this when didn't really need to was just annoying. Then again, Maybe Voltaire was just using Kai's experiencing this meeting as an excuse to not be here himself. It was quite possible that the older Hiwatari didn't like these meetings anymore than Kai did.
Kai smirked at that.
Then Kai sighed and decided to think about something else. What else was there to think about? Well he had another audition today and thankfully it was the last one. They had even said that it wasn't as stupid as the rest of the auditions had been, well actually Leslie had said that. Leslie had said that they were just going to make Kai do a simple reading, like they had at the beginning, and they were going to weed people out by that. Kai didn't exactly understand how they were going to do that but eh, he was sure that he would figure it out.
"So Mr. Hiwatari-" the presenter said with a shaky voice. "-did you, do you..." He took a deep breath. "What do you think of our probability in this?"
Kai snapped back to attention and glared at the people that looked at him with surprise for not being paying absolute attention. They all looked away and Kai mentally took names down.
Kai leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling. "I think that you need to work on getting a better presenter." Kai said simply. "I will go over your case again next week but this time, bring someone in who doesn't trip over his tongue." Kai glared at the presenter. "This meeting has been adjured."
Kai got up, out of his chair and made his way towards the door that lead to his office, he opened it and heard the voice of some female calling his name. Kai turned around and ended up face to face with one of the presenter's supporters, so to speak.
Kai snorted at that, if this guy thought that bringing a nice looking girl with him so that Kai would pay a more generous look at the presentation, he was wrong. Besides Kai didn't need that kind of people to get anything. He had Krys.
"Can I help you?" Kai asked, not moving from being two inches away from this girl's face and just glared. She backed up immediately and realized that she was definitely in the wrong.
"I'm sorry, I just was wondering if you could tell me when exactly I was going to get this second chance."
"Go talk to my secretary." Kai said simply. She sighed and turned away, not willing to say anything else to Kai's face anymore.
Kai smirked, that's what she gets for thinking that every rich guy was just going to throw themselves at her. Being rich meant you had more options so there weren't that many rich guys that didn't have a couple girls, at least, to choose from. And Kai had already made that choice.
Kai yawned and stretched. He didn't have any more meetings scheduled for today so he go home now after looking at any paper work that his secretary had left on his desk during that last meeting.
Kai closed his office door behind him and looked at his desk, nothing was on it. Kai grinned, he had to like his secretary.
Kai grabbed his coat and closed the blinds on his window. He could now go home and have a nice shower before he had to go to the audition. Kai sighed and made a note to make sure that the chicks weren't in the bathroom this time. Kai was still recovering from the shock of being jumped on by a chick in the middle of a shower.
Kai groaned at that thought. He wasn't sure how, but the chicks had decided that he was their father. They didn't follow him around as loyally as they would follow around Rei but they were still there most of the time. Kai couldn't wait to give Rei back his 'babies' today.
"I'm out Sharon." Kai said as he passed his secretary on the way out. Sharon just nodded and waved him away. Kai chuckled, that was Sharon for you. She certainly wasn't going to keep here Kai all day so that he could bug her into giving him some more work so she was ready and willing to get rid of him. It made Kai's life a lot better.
Kai climbed into his car and turned the key. He wanted to get home and fast. He turned around to back out of his parking spot and saw that damn presenter again standing in his way. Kai sighed and beeped the horn but the guy just stood there as if he was extra determined.
"Fuck." Kai said with a glare. "I'd just have to have one of those guys that treat this stupid thing a little more seriously than they need to." Kai sighed and honked his horn again then he rolled down his window. "If you don't get the hell out of there I'm going to run you over."
"You just have to say yes to our business." The guy said. "Please?"
"I told you." Kai said with a scowl. "You can come back in two weeks and try again. But for right now I'm not impressed with either you or your presentation. And if you don't get the hell out of the way, I'm going to revoke my request for you to come and see me in two weeks."
The guy sighed and stepped out of the way and Kai backed up, after rerolling up his window and drove off. What a freak! This was going to be a long day.
Kai pulled in his driveway and sighed, sitting in the car for a minute more than he had to. He really didn't want to go in there and see what the chicks had left for him to clean up today. Definitely didn't want to go see that. Kai breathed out and then got out of his car.
It would only be worse if he left them for any longer than he had to. Kai opened the door and wondered why he didn't just put them in the cage when he left and then heard the familiar crying of one of the chicks. Oh yeah, that's why.
Kai hated the crying more than he hated the mess. The mess he could clean up, the crying he couldn't. All of a sudden eight chicks were at the door in front of him, all of them peeping and jumping up and down happily, including the one that had been crying just a few seconds again. Guess that one had been missing Kai.
Kai scooped down and patted them all on the head in hello and then walked to the kitchen, where he left his briefcase and refilled the chick's water and food dishes on the floor.
Kai smirked. "I feel like I'm feeding a dog but instead there's eight of them and none of them are bigger than my hand." The chicks just looked up at him and blinked. Kai rolled his eyes. "Yah, yah. I know, I know. You don't like being compared to the dog."
Kai rolled his eyes but said nothing and ran upstairs, closing the bathroom door quickly. "Safe."
No sooner had he said that then all eight chicks were heard from outside the bathroom door, crying. Kai banged his head on the door. "Why me?"
*****
Raye snuggled into Joey and listened to the continous sound of the rain that kept any notion of an awkward silence from happening. Raye's eyes drifted to Bryan and Tempest. Raye blinked and looked away, not wanting to linger too long on the direction that her thoughts were taking.
So anyways, Kai has my chicks." Rei said wtih a defeated sigh. "And he's not returning my phone calls and won't open the door and-" Rei's head fell into his hands. "Oh what do you think happened to my poor chicks? Do you think they're okay? Do you think Kai got rid of them?" Rei began to shake.
Hannah put her arms around him. "It's okay Rei, I'm sure that Kai didn't do anything to your chicks. I'm sure they're just fine. I'll bet he's just doing this to make you upset."
"Kai wouldn't do that." Krys said in his defense. "Rei probably pissed him off and Kai's just taking a little bit of revenge."
"On chicks?" Hannah asked, disgusted.
"Oh stop fighting." Tempest snapped. "We all know that Kai will give the chicks back so why anyone is worried I don't know."
"Yeah well, I'm going to phone him." Krys got up and went over to the phone.
Raye rolled her reyes. "He's not going to answer."
"Yes he will." Krys growled.
'If you say so."
"I do." Krys dailed Kai's number and then hung up. "He's in a meeting."
"Oh?" Tempest asked in disbelief. "And how exactly did you know that? Did his pretty little blonde secretary tell you or are you just using your 'girlfriend intuition'? Hm?"
"Very funny." Krys said. "As a matter of face, he told me that he was going to be in a meeting today about three days ago. He had it planned for that long."
"Ah huh. Sure." Tempest rolled her eyes and snuggled into Bryan. "if you say sso Krys, if you say so."
Raye sighed and got up. "Would y'all stop it? You should know better than this." Raye moved to where her keys were hanging. "Come on, auditions start in an hour. Lets go get something to eat."
Everyone looked at each other and then sighed. There was nothing better to do.
*****
Kai exited the bathroom with his eight little followers behind him. Kai sighed, this was inhuman. Kai couldn't wait to get these stupid chicks back to Rei, and fast.
Kai walked past the answering machine and sighed. There was ten messages and he knew for a fact that most of them were from Rei, asking about the chicks. The only thing was, did Kai think that anyone else had phoned him?
Kai sighed and pressed the 'read messages' button. The answering machine instantly kicked into action. "Message one, recorded at seven thirty-six AM."
Rei's voice dominated the room. "Kai! I know you have to be home sometime. You can't just stay away from your house. Kai! I need you to pick up or phone me back or something. What did you do with my chicks? Kai? Kai?"
"End of message one." The answering machine said cheerfully. "If you'd like to listen to-" Kai quickly pressed three and went to the next message. "Message two, recorded at eleven forty-nine AM."
Rei's voice came over the room again and Kai rolled his eyes and just quickly pressed three.
"Message three, recorded at eleven fifty-two AM."
"KAI!" Rei's voice yelled and Kai almost jumped but regained composure and pressed three again.
"Message four, recorded at twelve twelve PM."
"KAI!" Rei's voice again and Kai pressed the next button for the third time.
"Message five, recorded at one twenty-three PM."
"Kai Hiwatari." Voltaire's voice said over the phone. "About the fact that you let some company have another chance. You and I are going to have a very long talk about that. You know better than that. You'd better phone me before my ten o'clock meeting tomorrow."
"End of message five. If you'd-" Once again the button was pressed to go on. "Message six, recorded at one forty-six PM."
"Kai! I want my-"
"Message seven, recorded at three o'clock."
"Hey Kai, it's Tala. Would you please tell Rei what you did with the chicks before he has a heart attack and does something stupid. I realize that you were mad at us but you can't be this mad, right?" Tala inhaled. "Thanks Kai."
"End of message seven." The answering machine didn't even have a chance to say what it wanted to next. "Message eight, recorded at three oh-two."
"Kai Hiwatari." This time it was Krys. "If you don't get Rei back those stupid chicks I'm going to come over there and murder you. I realize that you think you're teaching him a lesson but don't you think that this is a little harsh? You'd better give those chicks back. That's all I can say. Bye."
"End of message eight. If-" If the answering machine had feelings it was probably mad by now because it had been interupted so many times. "Message nine, recorded at three oh-six."
"KAI!" Rei's voice sounded really desperate now. "Please Kai...I want my chicks back."
"End of message nine-" Again the answering machine was interupted. "Message ten, recorded at three oh-seven."
"Kai? Are you there? Auditions start in an half an hour. Get your ass over here." That was Tala. "Bye."
"End of message ten." Kai sighed and pressed the 'stop' button.
Kai rolled his eyes and looked at the chicks. "Ready to go back to your mother?" The chicks all cocked their head and peeped. "Good, 'cause that's where we're going now."
*****
Shara sighed as she waited for Ttala's car to pull in the parking lot. His friend Rei, and his girlfriend, were already here, as was the rest of the 'group'. Shara sneered. How dare those jealous want-to-bes attempt to keep her and Tala apart any longer. Shara was going to have tala whether they wanted her to or not. And there was nothing that any of those freaks could do about it either. Especially when Shara worked her plan into action and got a picture that would have Aurora steaming at Tala. Shara smirked, and then Shara would be able to move in. The greatest part was that no one would be able to connect her to this incident. It was completely and totally perfect and all she had to do was switch Tala's script with her 'improved one'.
Shara giggled, that would be easy enough. One of the script managers had the hots for her, it would be a sinch to slip it in. Tala and Aurora will be broken up before the end of the day! Oh, it is so difficult being so perfectly geniously evil.
Shara spotted the red-headed script manager and headed over to him. She knew that Tala was going to be second to audition, so all she had to do was get her script second from the top. Piece of cake that would be.
"Iain?" Shara called out to the red-head. "Iain!"
"Yes?" Iain asked and then turned around, quickly becoming as red as his hair when he saw just who was calling him.
"Iain! I dropped my key. Can you help me find it?" In about three point six seconds, Iain was down on his hands and knees, attempting to find the lost key.
"Where did you lose it?" Iain asked as Shara walked towards the pile of scripts.
"Um, just a few feet in front of you." Shara called back as she lifted the top script and placed hers underneath it.
"Found it!" Iain said triumphantly, turning around and standing up.
Shara quickly let go of the first script and didn't notice as it fluttered to the ground. "Oh thank you!" Shara squealed an dtook the key from him. "I'd better be going now. See you around Iain." Shara winked and then walked away.
When Shara was gone, Iain looked back at his pile and noticed the script on the floor. "Stupid thing, trying to get away from me." Iain picked it up and put it on the bottom of the pile. "Alright, lets go and get these things to the directors."
Iain proudly picked up the pile and headed to the director's room, Shara's script laying on the top...
*****
"Look. There's Kai's car." Rei said all of a sudden, leaping up off the ground where he was sitting. "Lets go get my chicks back."
Hannah got up with him and slowly everyone else followed suit. "You'd think he actually was their mother for Pete's sake." Krys whispered to Aurora who just shrugged and leaned into Tala.
For once Kai's roof was up and his tainted windows all rolled up. Krys loved this car but preferrred to have all the windows down. Krys wondered what exactly Kai was up to.
Rei banged needlessly on the car window. "Kai! Get out here! I want my chicks back!" Rei kept hammering away on the car window until he heard the familiar click of the door lock and Rei stepped back.
Kai climbed out, his best (or at least one of his best) business suits were on. A very sharp black suit which Kai had paired with sunglasses. If Krys wasn't already going out with him, she'd probably be after him right now.
Kai slammed his door shut and looked around. Within a second Rei had his fingers around Kai's neck and was squeezing. "Kai Hiwatari, you'd better get my chicks to me right about NOW!"
Kai glared at Rei, which made Rei back off a little bit and then Kai pulled at his collar to straight it and then he turned and walked to the other side of his car and opened it. Eight, happy, hyper, curious, fluffy chicks hopped out and began running to and fro.
"My chicks!" Rei screeched and went for them.
The chicks heard that noise and all peeped, scurrying to get behind Kai's legs, obviously for protection. Kai laughed and moved out from in front of them. "Looks like they want to get away from your whining as much as I do."
Rei glared and sighed. "Mean jerk."
Kai chuckled and looked down at his feet. "Alright chicks, go find your mother..."
The chicks all looked innocently up at Kai and seemed to be pondering his actions as Kai motioned over to Rei. Then the chicks all clucked and ran over to Rei's feet, jumping up and down madly. Kai beamed and leaned down to sweep them up.
Krys gave a pointed look at all of her friends. She was gloating in the fact that all of her friends had been wrong about Kai being mean to the chicks. Obviously the chicks just adored Kai and they wouldn't do that if Kai had been mean to them.
Just then a little crying noise started. Everyone looked around frantically for the source and eventually everyon'es eyes fell on one of the chicks.
"What's wrong with it?" Rei asked as he attempted to soothe the chick by rocking it back and forth. "Why won't it stop crying?"
Kai rolled his eyes, or at least Krys was sure that he did, and walked over to Rei and took the chick from Rei's hands and looked at it. "Would you just stop it?"
The chick looked at Kai for a moment and then peeped happily and jumped up and down. Rei shrugged and took the chick back, which instantly restarted the crying episode. Rei quickly gave it back and growled. "What did you do to it? You poisoned its mind against its own mother."
Kai rolled his eyes as he took off his sunglasses and neatly foled them into his pocket. "Look Rei, I did no such thing. This one just needs to get used to you again, that's all. She cries everytime that I leave the house."
"Really?" Rei asked, tilting his head as he looked at the chick that Kai was still holding.
"Trust me, she does. And the rest of them cry when you put them in a cage and they can't see you anymore." Kai shrugged. "You'll get used to it pretty quickly. Or go mad with the crying."
Rei sighed and looked at the chick that was following Kai around now since Kai put it down. Rei wordlessly shook his head. "Well whatever happens, you're keeping that chick. I'd never be able to stand that much crying!"
The chick peeped happily while Kai grunted.
*****
Kai was called first into the 'reading room'. From outside, Kai could have sworn that it was just a broom closet and that they were seriously just kidding him about the fact that he was going to have to read in that room. Then Kai had gone in.
From inside, Kai knew that it was a broom closet. It had been cleaned out before they used it for this stupid thing but anyone with a brain could tell that it was a broom closet. And there, about three feet away from Kai were the judges, looking at him and smiling, though they were completely squished into the closet with their chairs. Kai just raised his eyebrow and shook his head. This was going to be one low-budget movie and Kai didn't know if he actually wanted to be apart of it.
"Just take a script off of the stand and READ it." Jeremy said, empathesizing the word 'read'. Kai smirked, he knew what these two were up to. They just wanted him to read it and not do any actions. Not that Kai would have anyways, but now..now Kai was interested in flunking this. And what better way to do so than do just screw up the final cut?
Kai grabbed a script and flipped it open. Kai's eyes opened wide. No wonder they didn't want anyone to act this out, this was absolutely horrible. It was disgusting and Kai knew disgusting. He wasn't that stupid. Kai shuddered. Well it wasn't too late to back out now. Kai looked at the faces of his future 'directors' though and shuddered. Forget that!
{A/N: No this isn't Fyne Inverse's script..This is 'Shara's'..*nods* just so you know ^_^} Kai took a deep breath. "First of all my name is Kai Hiwatari and I'm 15 years old. I have a girlfriend currently and her name is Krys but I most definitely do not love her. I just think that she's a horrible person and if I could, I would go and kill her." Kai made a disgusted face. "And I just think that you're lovely." Kai sighed, knowing this was his big chance to blow it and he threw himself at Sandra.
Sandra squealed as Kai seemed to be attempting to tackle him.
"I LOVE YOU!"
*****
Shara smirked as she thought about the geniusness of her plan. She just had to edit her tape and wipe out Kai's audition before Tala's and Rei's afterwards and she'd be all good. No one would know that it was her that did it and Aurora's temper would carry it from there on. Tala wouldn't know what hit him, the poor guy. Shara shrugged. Too bad, he should have came to her when he had the choice. Now she would force him to.
Tala would be so upset because Aurora hated him and he didn't know why that he wouldn't question Shara coming to comfort him. Then she would slowly move in, become the 'blacklash' and then she would keep him from getting away.
Shara giggled, this would be soo easy.
*****
{A/N: Okay I'm not going to drag this chapter out forever...I'm just going to show you Tala and Rei's auditions so that you can see the actual script that Fyne Inverse wrote me because I think it's kinda funny ^_^ plus I said that I would use it and in case you didn't know..she's scarey when she's mad lol}
Tala sat in the chair that he was 'assigned' to sit in. Tala growled, it had been almost an hour since Kai had gone in there. What on earth were they making him read in there? Kai still hadn't come out and no one else had been called in. It was stupid and frusterating. Who did these directors think they were? Did they think that they were going to win any scout points by keeping him waiting this long? Well guess what, they weren't!!!
Tala was about to get up and leave when someone opened the door of the 'reading room' and peeked out. "Tala? You may come in now."
Tala growled and got up, waved to Rei who was occupying himself with his chicks and then walked into the room....Kai had been right, it was a broom closet.
Tala rolled his eyes, he wasn't going to work in a movie with this kind of conditions. Maybe he should pull a 'Kai' and just 'read' the script and not do anything else. Tala nodded, that was exactly what he was going to do.
"Take a script off of the pile and just read from it." Sandra said simply and then motioned to the pile of scripts.
Tala did so, opened it and then cleared his throat. "Hello my name is, say your name." Tala looked up and saw that neither of the directors had even blinked. Maybe he hadn't made it clear enough that he wasn't doing what they wanted him to. "I was born in, say wherever you were born." Tala looked up again, still nothing. What in the hell was going on? They should be at least a little upset or something. Maybe they really don't like this script or aren't even listening to me. Tala decided to speak a little bit louder. "And I'm the, say what place you have in your family." Tala growled when he still didn't get a reaction.
"Keep going Tala." Jeremy coaxed. "You're doing great."
Tala blinked. What on earth was that supposed to be. Tala bit off his frusterations and continued to read. "I like to dance like a duck, make a duck-like dance please-" Tala growled again. "And I'm secretly a nudist, take your shirt and pants off please." Tala bit his tongue in his attempt NOT to yell at the directors. "And I really love your work, blow a kiss to the directors" Still, they didn't seem surprised he wasn't doing what the script told him to. "Please include me in your play, kneel in front of the directors and bow your head please." Tala gave up. "Stand up, gather your things and exit the room quietly." Tala growled, threw the script at the directors and left. Stupid SOB's.
*****
Rei watched as Tala stomped out of the room and ran out into the parking lot. Rei shrugged, guess something bad had happened to him in there. Rei shrugged and picked up his chicks and had them follow him into the room. Then he looked around him.
It was broom closet, that was the first thing that Rei noticed. Then he noticed a pile of scripts in front of him. Rei picked one up.
"Just-" Sandra coughed. "-read that."
Rei nodded. He looked over it, it shouldn't be too bad. Rei smiled, he was going to make this the best script reading they had ever heard and that's all there was to it. Rei beamed and then cleared his throat.
"Hello, my name is Rei. I was born in China." Rei blinked when they looked at him and sighed. Rei didn't get it, what was wrong with his reading? Maybe they wanted more enthusiasm. Rei started bouncing up an ddown. "I'm the eldest in my family." {A/N: Yeah yeah yeah, i don't know if he is or if he isn't or if he's an only child so don't flame me if i'm wrong *nods*} Rei blinked again. "I like to dance like a duck." Rei giggled and then went around in circles in his version of a 'duck dance'. "And I'm secretly a nudist." Rei did a nice little strip tease. His shirt ended up on one of the chick's head. "And I really love your work." Rei decided to take the 'blowing a kiss' thing furthur and he went and kissed Sandra on the check. "Please include me in your play." Rei kneeled in front of the directors and bowed his head. Then Rei stood up, gathered his stuff, called to his chicks and exited the room.
As Rei left he realized why he hadn't seen Kai go back through the main room...it was because there was another door.
As Rei exited the room Sandra and Jeremy just exchanged looks.
*****
Shara was going through the last phases of her plan. The directors were almost done with everyone that they had to go through. Then everyone, and their friends, would be herded in here so that they could be shown the results. At the moment everyone was staring at the front of the room, Shara would turn on the projector and BOOM, Tala would be hers.
Shara couldn't believe that this plan hadn't come to her before. It was so ingenious. So perfect. So flawless...
"Now, I want you all to head in this room." Shara heard someone call and Shara chuckled to herself. That's right Aurora, come in here. I want you especially to see EXACTLY what Tala thinks of all of Sandra. Shara continued to giggle.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen. I know that most of you in the room were in the audition process one time or another and I hope that you all find the people that we choose to be people that can think are great." Jeremy said with a smile.
"So for the final result-" Sandra started.
"We chose-" Jeremy continued.
Shara decided to, at that exact moment, turn on the video tape. All of a sudden there was a murmur across the crowd and Shara came out to look at the screen.
And saw, to her horror, Kai Hiwatari standing on the screen.
Kai raised his eyebrow and shook his head. He looked like he was in disgust at where he was. And he probably had a reason to be because he seemed to be in some sort of closet, obviously where they were taking the final auditions.
Jeremy smiled and looked at Kai warmly. "Just take a script off the stand and READ it." Jeremy was so obvious with the empathesizing that Kai would have to be an idiot to do anything that involved him do a reaction.
But then Kai smirked and everyone in the room knew that the last thing he was going to do was to just read it. Then Kai flipped open the script and his eyes went wide and the only person in the room that knew exactly why, was Shara.
Shara was thinking to herself as she watched what was going on. FUCK! How on earth could my plan go bad? What happened? I know I put the script in the right spot! Why? Why? WHY?
For a minute it looked like Kai wasn't going to act anything else and then Shara would be safe. But then Kai looked at the faces of the directors and shuddered and Shara knew that wasn't going to happen.
Kai took a deep breath. "First of all, my name is Kai Hiwatari and I'm 15 years old. I have a girlfriend currently and her name is Krys but I most definitely do not love her."
Shara could see her life flash before her life. Krys wouldn't be fooled by this. Krys was going to be looking for blood and most likely not Kai's.
"I just think that she's a horrible person and if I could, I would go and kill her." Kai made a disgusted face.
Shara figured that was the look people were going to give her when they saw her face once Krys was done with her.
"And I just think that you're lovely." Kai sighed and Shara wished she could make it stop right now.
Kai threw himself at Sandra. Literally.
Sandra and Shara both squealed at the same time.
"I LOVE YOU!" Kai yelled and began to leave kisses all over Sandra's face.
Shara looked over at where Krys was sitting and saw her scanning the crowd. Then Krys' eyes went over to where Shara was standing and glared. She jumped up and started running for Shara. Shara screamed.
She was dead meat!
*****
Kai didn't want to think about what had just happened. Someone had taped his audition and that wasn't really that cool. Then Krys had got up and ran after someone, probably who she thought had taped him. Kai shrugged, oh well, at least it's over. Kai got up and stetched, only to have Sandra and Jeremy head over to him.
Sandra handed him a piece of paper.
"I want you to sign this." She said with a smile. "We've decided to sign you."
Kai looked at her and looked her expression up and down. Then he chuckled and pushed the paper into her chest. "Forget it lady, I don't want anything to do with you." With that Kai got up and headed over to where he was sure that Krys had gone.
Sure enough he found her. And Shara. Kai smirked and leaned against the wall, letting Krys get a few more punches in before coming in and pulling her away, whipping her around and pressing his mouth against hers.
"Ready to go?" Kai asked.
"Yeap." Krys said with a smile, kicking Shara again and then following Kai out to the car. "So who won?"
Kai climbed in the car and Shara did the same. Kai pulled out of the parking lot, the top now down and the wind rushing over them. Kai headed for the free way.
"Well? Who won?" Krys asked again.
"I did."
"Oh?" Krys sighed and then shook her head. "I'm so proud of you. You'll have fun. Sure you won't have any time for me but you deserve-"
"I turned them down."
"You did?" Krys didn't try to hide her pleasure at that. "Did I ever tell you that I love you?" Kai chuckled and Krys blushed. "I didn't mean it-"
Kai waved her off and they sped down the freeway, listening to nothing but the wind.
Then Kai grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "I love you too."
