Chapter 20

A/N: It's 20 chapters and not even halfway done! If only my English teacher could see this, maybe she'd give me a better grade. ;p Nyways, the first part of this chapter is gonna be Chris's point of view because he just fainted and I felt like writing from his POV.



~~*~~~ Chris's POV ~~*~~~

I opened my eyes and everything was blurry, someone was sitting next to me, but his/her back was turned towards me. My head really hurt.

The person turned around and I saw that it was Kel-Kally. After a couple of weeks, I still thought of her as Kelly, not some stuck-up princess.

" Ah, so my hero finally awakes," she said dryly.

" What happened?"

" Am I really that bad at kissing? You fainted and now you can't even remember?"

" What?" Then my memory came back. " Oh, I remember now."

" Yay "

" The kiss is a little blurry though, maybe you can refresh my memory?" I asked a little more than hopeful.

" No. You might not remember, but I do. I can still see you falling off your horse." She grinned as she said this. She has a really nice smile...Wait! Did she just say I fell off my horse!? And she saw it! Oh yeah Chris, great way to impress her, and while she was kissing you too, you idiot!

I smiled weakly. " Did I really fall off?"

She burst into laughter; did I mention she has a nice laugh too? " You swooned before you fell off."

" Swooned?"

" Like a lovesick girl meeting the knight of her dreams," she batted her eyes before she started laughing again.

I groaned, this was just great. The girl I loved was laughing at me because I fainted when she kissed me. Chris, you stupid idiot!

" I want to die!" I said.

"Oh, it wasn't that bad." She said.

" You weren't the one who fainted!"

" You're overreacting. Besides, I thought it was kinda cute."

" Really?"

" Yeah, in a weird kind of way."

" Kiss me again."

" No."

" Why not?" I whined, putting on the sad little puppy-dog face girls can't resist.

" Because."

" Because why?"

" Because I don't want to."

" Ok fine, I'll just die then."

" If you die, I can't kiss you."

" It's not like you're going to anyways."

" Not right now. I have to go tell everyone you're up first."

" And then?"

" Maybe." I knew I had a goofy grin on my face when she left. I felt like singing, but if I did she'd probably strangle me or something.

~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~

Kally told Bobbie and Robbie that Chris was up and then sat down when they left to see them. It was dark now, all the gypsies were dancing and singing around the fire, but she was oblivious to it all as she thought.

She didn't know why she had kissed him. She really, REALLY liked him, but a romance between them would never work out. He'd keep trying to sleep with her and when she refused, he'd go somewhere else. Even if she let him have his way, after a week he'd get bored. Their friendship would be ruined. And then there was her father; her father was probably arranging another marriage for her as she sat here. When she went back home he would have a whole wedding arranged for her, the dress was probably being made now. She should probably try contacting her father, she hadn't heard from him since she got rid of Willy the Ugly. She shuddered at the thought of her former beau. ' I need to stop thinking about that. Time to dance.' She thought as she got up and started dancing with some guy.

She didn't notice Chris come out. He stopped and stared. ' Time to go claim that kiss.' He thought. He walked over and pulled Kally away.

" Hey, your up!"

"Why shouldn't I be?"

" Dunno. So, any particular reason why you dragged me away from having fun?"

" I wanted to claim my kiss."

" What kiss?"

" The one you promised me!"

" Oh, that one," she hesitated. " Close your eyes."

" Why?" Chris asked suspiciously.

" Just do it." His eyes snapped shut. " Don't faint this time."

" I'll try not to." He said dryly. She leaned in and kissed him. He put his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him. They pulled back at the same time to breathe.

" Hey! You're still conscious!" Kally joked.

" Ha Ha." He said sarcastically before kissing her again. Kally pulled back when he tried to put his tongue in her mouth.

" What's wrong?" he asked.

" Nothing. I just don't want your tongue in my mouth."

" Oook. Let's go back to the wagon then."

" I am not having sex with you."

" I know, I wasn't going to ask you to. However, I am very turned on right now."

" Yeah, well, turn off!"

" ok. I'll try." He turned and walked away.

" You better," she muttered, before running to catch up.













Mystic Queen: Do you really love or r u just sayin that?

Felsong: Of course it's funny, I'm ALWAYS funny. *coughs* yea right. Bye.

Tigress FN: All this story needs is a brain surgery, amnesia, a mysterious murder, and then it could be a soap! J/K!

Anastazia: Yup. *sigh* Ain't he romantic? * rolls eyes*

Loopeeee: I don't think that's much of a long review, it's mostly spaces. Oh well. And kally doesn't have PMS. She's just...um...I'm thinkin, hang on.....oh! got it! * takes deep breath* She's just different. * smiles triumphantly* but I'm differenter. :P

Loki- goddess of destruction: Yup, Chris is a wuss. Sad huh? Well at least he didn't faint when he saw a mouse, that would be really pathetic.

Hyacinth:Yah, I hate the prig too. If his mother had made him marry Delia or Josiane, Kally wouldn't have the whole arranged thingy. Actually, it'd be worse, she'd have the parents from hell. I might do the stranger thing, but that would be later. Robbie and Bobbie stand for Robert and Bobert, at least, that's what their parents thought. They were having Dr. Pepper when Bobbie and Robbie were born.

Hawaiikel:I know, I am a genius aren't I? Ur very good at rhyming. U should write a book. Like Rhyming 4 Dummies or somthin like that. Then u could dedicate it 2 me cause i'm the queen of the dummies. I'm tellin the truth, i really am queen of the dummies.

Not so faerie L: I didn't see nything that woul insult her either, but o well. I know Chris is a bit of a jerk, I made him like that on purpose. Maybe he'll try changin 4 Kally. He could go to jerks anonymous meetings.

Demented-dreamer: yah, big smooch was a bit of an exageration, but I felt like writin that and i'm sorry u think it ruined the chappie
