Notes: o.o I figured that I ought to type something up and I went to read Chapter 2 of Hesitating and decided that I really wanted to type more on that and it would be good to update it for Dev :) So, yeah. Thinks On another note, I watched Wolf's Rain last night and I have decided that I absolutely DESPISE Cheza. Beats her to death STUPID. x.x She's messing everything up. Now Kiba's completely attached to her, Hige keeps talking about 'pretty girls', and Toboe has 'a fluttery feeling in his chest' and his heart skipped a beat...DIE CHEZA. DIE! Die and stop murdering my yaoi pairings, damnit. Deep breath Moving on...
Chapter 3
"Rei, Tala, you two need to get up. I washed Tala's clothes in case he wanted to wear those. And maybe he can find some time to get clothes from his house while his father's gone." Mrs. Kon said before closing the door behind her.
"You awake, Tala?" Rei asked.
"Mmhmm..."
"Are you going to wear your clothes? We could probably sneak into your house to get more while your dad's at work." Rei said.
"Yeah. There's plenty of time after school. He wont be home until five tonight. Unless he goes out. Then he wont be back until tomorrow morning." Tala said. "Hey, Rei?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you think I could bring Koonan? I don't really want to leave her with my father."
"Sure. Mom wont mind, I don't think." Rei said, rolling out of bed and picking up his brush from the table by his bed.
"Okay." Tala sat up, yawning. "Guess what."
"You changed your mind."
"Nope."
"You're failing math."
"Nope."
"Koonan's your daughter."
"Nope."
"You're really a girl."
"You wish."
"No, not really."
"Good."
"So, what?"
"My arm hurts."
"Well, duh."
"Don't 'well, duh' me. If was such an obvious answer, you would have said that in the first place."
"Go get dressed, Tala."
"Yessir." Tala pushed off of the edge of the bed like he had the night before and picked his clothes up off of the desk by the door. "Today is going to feel really weird." Tala commented as he opened the bedroom door.
"No kidding. No regrets?" Rei said, looking up from his work on his hair.
"None."
"'Kay."
"Be right back."
"'Kay"
"I love you, mom. See you when we get home!" Rei called.
"Okay! Have a good day, you guys! I love you, Rei!" Mrs. Kon called back from her room upstairs.
"Bye!"
Once they were outside and the door was shut, Rei and Tala looked at each other. "I repeat, this is going to be really weird. But I find it amusing to imagine the reaction of my "friends". And I think it will be even more amusing to ignore them all day."
"Sounds like fun. Come on. Supposed to be out there five minutes ago." Rei said, starting forward. Tala followed.
"You know, for once it's a good thing we have all of today's classes together." Tala commented.
"Why's that?"
"For one, it'll be easier to get used to being around you again. And, remember, I have none of my school work or anything." Tala said, smiling. "Which means I wont be turning in the project that is due today. Lucky me."
"Not done?"
"No, no. I finished it. The problem is that my father destroyed it when he decided that the computer needed to learn a lesson." Tala explained.
"Oh. That's not good." Rei shook his head. "Maybe he'll accept an excuse?"
"Are you kidding? This is Snyder we're talking about. He wouldn't accept an excuse if you were his favorite student and you payed him. And I don't think he's ever had a favorite student." Tala responded.
Rei laughed. "Yeah, I guess your right. I guess we'll just have to start over again. Do you remember anything you did?" Rei asked as they turned a corner and arrived at the bus stop.
"Most of it. But I'll have to do my works cited page over again. Which is a bad thing, seeing as I don't remember where I got my information." Tala said. Neither Rei nor Tala noticed two of Rei's friends quickly approaching.
"You did the Holocaust, right?" Rei asked.
"Yeah."
"Then you can use some of mine and we can do a bit of quick research tonight." Rei said, shrugging. "Hey Tyson, hey Max." Rei greeted his two friends as they stopped a few feet away.
"Uhm, hey Rei." Max greeted. Tyson just glanced from Tala to Rei while Tala stared at the stone wall that surrounded the huge yard of the large house on the other side.
"I'll explain on the bus." Rei said, smiling. "Hey, Tala?"
"Yeah?" Tala tore his eyes away from the wall to look at Rei.
"Did you understand the Practice test?" Rei asked him.
"For the most part. Why?"
"Mind helping me with mine? I never finished it and I don't remember half the stuff we learned earlier this semester."
"Sure. How much do you not remember?" Tala asked as the bus drove up.
"Just the things that were on the first three or four pages of the review sheet." Rei answered, shrugging.
"I'm not sure I remember what was on the first three or four pages." Tala said as they got on the bus. Rei pulled Tala down to sit beside him in the second seat from the front which was right above the front right wheel.
"This is depressing." Tala commented.
"Why?"
"I haven't sat up front for ages and it only makes me remember."
"Yes, well, I haven't sat here for ages either." Rei said, raising an eyebrow. "Can you guess why?"
"No. I have -no- idea." Tala said. "Try not to remind me?"
"No problem. Now. You two wanted an explanation, then?" Rei inquired, looking over the back of the seat at Tyson and Max. Both nodded.
A few things:
1) I know NOTHING about Japanese schools. So I'm basing their school off of my school. 'cept for the fact that Mr. Snyder is a middle school teacher, not a junior high teacher. I never had Mr. Snyder myself, but my best friend did. Didn't like him at all. :) Who did? Anyway...
2) Yeah, I almost forgot that Tala had no stuff :)
3) Koonan is a husky. .- It's Nanook backwards, if you didn't notice. Nanook is a beanie baby husky, my mom's old dog, and the name of a friend online (Which is where Koonan came from) I call her Koonan and she called me Revlistfiws. Happy Okay. My sister's rushing me. Wants to go on a walk (In other words, she wants to go spend money XD)
4) (Next day .) Forgot to mention that I hate it when people say "wheel" when referring to a TIRE. But it sounded weird to say that they were above the right front tire. Reminds me too much of racing. Which reminds me: They SO should have called the caution when what's-his-butt was spewing stuff everywhere. Kasey wouldn't have lost his position if they hadn't waited until he spun out to call a caution! Grrrrrrrr.
Well, thanks for reading and please review! Later! (Has everyone stopped updating for a reason?)
