Sweet Revenge
A/N I have never seen The Ring before so I don't know what happens. I only know it's a really scary movie so no flames on not telling any part of The Ring. I only used it because my friends said it was a scary movie. Also, sum1 said that the action in ma story is sorta taperin off, these couple of chappies r just goin 2 b mostly humor and romance. Sorri, lots more action will b comin in da near future...
"Where is he," was her first words when she entered the room.
All of the guys kept silent. They averted their eyes from her gaze and
kept them glued to the TV screen. Except for Kai of course, he stood
silently in his usual position. He never believed in butting into a problem
unless he can solve it. Suddenly, a small movement from the curtains
caught the observant eye of Raven. As she walked over wordlessly, Tyson
and Max gulped. This was not going to be a pretty picture.
She pulled back the drapes and their stood Rei, now as still as a rock.
His eyes portrayed fear as she grasped the front of his shirt and pulled him
to her; their faces only mere centimetres apart. It looked weird though
because Rei was half a head taller than she was! He practically towered
over her, but she didn't let that stop her! She spoke only 5 words slowly
before letting him go.
"Don't ever do that again!"
Raven walked back to where the guys were sitting before and playing
Gamecube. Rei hesitated before sitting down on the other side of Max.
"So where's the video?" he asked.
"Here," Tyson pulled it out and without looking at the title, slipped it into the
VCR.
"What movie did you guys rent?" was Kai's only question
"The Ring," Raven said automatically.
Rei leaned back to enjoy the movie while Max moved to sit beside
Tyson, leaving Raven beside Rei. Kai stood up from the wall he was holding
up and went to sit close to Raven. Tyson scrambled up to go turn off the
lights. For the first 5 min, there were commercials, then the feature
presentation started... (a/n O.o)
After a few min. Tyson realized that The Ring was a horror movie and
ran out the door whimpering and crying. Max lasted only a quarter of the
movie before running out to join his friend. And so the battle of who could
last the longest started.
Rei conveniently left at the scariest parts to make more popcorn and
Raven went to the bathroom one too many times. Kai just stared at the
screen throughout the entire movie with his hands on his lap. Several times,
he silently let out breaths that he had been holding. Rei kept stuffing
popcorn in his mouth to distract himself while some other frightening scenes
came on. Raven hugged a pillow tightly to her while muttering under her
breath. "This is not scary, this is not scary..."
Raven liked to be close to people, especially when she was scared
and this was one of those times she wish she had a friend with her. She
moved right next to Rei and latched onto his arm; only letting go when he
went to make popcorn. Rei was thankful that the lights were off or else
Kai would've seen him blushing at the closeness of Raven.
After 3 quarters of the movie, Raven fell asleep. Being scared had
tensed up all her muscles and now they were all tired and begging her to rest.
Raven gladly obliged and fell asleep on Rei's shoulder.
The movie ended not a minute too early and Kai stood up to stretch.
Rei attempted to stand up, but Raven had embraced him with a firm grip.
Kai looked in Rei's direction and snickered. Rei blushed and couldn't think
of anything to say. They had to get back to their room and somebody had
to carry Raven. Rei saw the look on Kai's face and immediately started to
quietly protest.
Kai shrugged at Rei and walked out leaving only Raven and Rei now.
Rei sighed. Why did Kai always leave him with the hard job? He picked her
up gently in a bridal style and stood up. Raven snuggled closer to Rei and
wrapped her arms around his neck. Rei blushed profusely and walked back
to their room.
She was light and her skin was smooth to the touch. Rei looked down
at the angel in his arms and for the first time in his life, wished that she was
his.
He laid her gently down on the cot, but noticed something. The cot
was half her size! It was definitely way too small for her.
"Uh, Kai, don't you think that the cot is too short for her? I mean, her feet
are hanging over, not just her feet, but starting from her knees down!"
Kai glanced at her and snorted,
"Just tuck her feet in then. It's not my fault that the hotel has only these
puny cots." He sneered and headed for a short shower.
Rei sighed at the rudeness of Kai, but tucked her knees up to her chin.
He pulled the blanket over her body and went to the washroom when Kai
came out. After washing his hair, he managed somehow to dry it with a hair
dryer.
He walked into the bedroom and made his way to the bed. He
flopped onto it and quickly fell asleep.
Late into the night, Kai was having nightmares in his sleep and awoke
with a start.
"Maybe watching The Ring wasn't such a good idea," he mumbled to
himself.
Kai felt as if his throat was on fire and he needed a cup of water badly.
He started to get out of the bed, but remembered that Raven was his servant.
He smiled wickedly and bent down to waken Raven. He shook her shoulder
several times, but all she did was stir a little. He finally resorted to a bit of
violence and punched her arm a couple of times.
She at last raised her head grunted,
"What do you want?"
"My throat is burning and I need a cup of water, slave" he emphasized the
word slave.
Raven dragged herself out of bed and into the washroom. She heard
Kai's sharp, "Hurry up!", but didn't really care. She filled a cup with water
and staggered back to the bedroom, spilling a quarter of the contents on the
way. As she neared Kai's bedside, she tripped on her cot and landed on Kai.
All the water dripped onto a very annoyed and angry Kai.
"Sorry," Raven mumbled and picked herself up.
Before Kai could say another word, Raven headed out to the
washroom again. She heard Kai call out, "KLUTZ!" but didn't give a damn.
She hurried out again and this time was more careful.
Without even thanks he gulped down the glass of cool water. The
liquid relieved his parched throat and he felt much better. Raven stood by
his bed all the while and when he was finished, asked,
"Anything else? Master." She also stressed the word master.
"No" came Kai's reply and he fell asleep again.
Raven curled up in her little cramped cot and tried to go back to sleep.
Her body protested against the cot and she felt very uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, she at long last, fell asleep.
