You Can Have The Best Of Me

Chapter 6: Work Things Out

Saturday afternoon had came and Conner and Kira hadn't talked to each other since last night. Conner was a bit ticked off of what he heard last night. He wasn't sure why though. Maybe because she was acting cold hearted and mean or maybe because he knew she was right and he just didn't want to hear the truth, whatever it was, it didn't quite end well. Conner was driving his car down the street out of boredom. He looked over and noticed Kira walking along the side walks holding her guitar. He pulled up near her and slowly started to drive next to her, looking out the window.


Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don't ask why
It's not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life


"Do you need a lift?" He asked.

Kira ignored him and kept walking. She didn't want to deal with a stupid jock right now. She wasn't in a mood for more arguments. Conner sighed and glanced back at the raod before looking back at her.

"Come on Kira. I want to talk. I'm sorry if I got mad last night." He said.

Kira stopped and looked at him before sighing. Conner stopped the car and opened the passenger seat for her to get in. She stuck the guitar in the back and climbed in, putting on her seat belt. He drove off and headed towards Reefside Park. They both remained silent on the way, Kira kept her eyes looking out the window. Conner pulled up into a parking lot and shut off the car. He remained silent looking at her.

"You know Conner. I like you, I just don't like the fact that you get jealous of every guy I talk to." She spoke up.

Conner's mouth dropped, he was shocked of what she just said, "Where the heck did this come from?"

She turned and looked at him, "Conner. Listen to me closely, so even your thickheaded brain can pick up on this. I-Like-You. I mean, ever since we met, I always thought you were some stuck up jerk, but I realize how sweet you can be."


So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it's worth
It was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life


"So why didn't you just ask me to dance?" He asked.

Kira smirked, "First of all Conner, why didn't you ask me? Second of all, I didn't know you even had feelings for me. I went with Trent because I obviously wanted to go with someone, and he just so happen to ask me."

"Well I do like you." He explained.

Kira chuckled sarcastically, "Yeah, I realize that at the dance. Then realize what a jelous jerk you can be."

Conner sighed, "I'm sorry."
She smiled, "It's all right." She said as she climbed out of the car.

Conner unbuckled his seatbelt and got out also. Looking around. The sun was shining brightly on them. Kira ran forward and waved for him to follow.

"Come on Con boy. Let's go have some fun!" She exclaimed.

Conner smiled and chased after her as they ran through the park. She laughed and jumped over a park bench and started to run down a hill.


It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life


"You're not getting away from me!" Conner joked as he continued to chase after her.

Kira started to heard towards the long hill at the end of the park. Conner cheated and used his dino speed to catch up, tackling her. They both fell and started to roll down the hill, Kira holding onto Conner tightly. As they made there way to the bottom, Kira opened his eyes and found herself on top of Conner. She looked down at him and laughed as he smiled at her. She rolled off and laid on the grass, looking up at the clouds.

"Hey look! I can see a rabbit in the clouds!" She pointed at one of the clouds.

"I don't see it?" Conner admitted as he tried to look.

Kira sighed, "Never mined. I guess you need a better imagination."

"Ouch." Conner responded, "I do try." He chuckled.

Kira sighed, feeling the soft ground underneath her.

"What do you think of my music?" She asked randomly

Conner lifted his head and looked at her, "I think its good. Why?"

She shrugged, "I always wanted to become a well known singer, but this whole ranger thing is slowing that dream down."

Conner began to laugh out loud. Kira sat up and glared at him, wondering what was so funny. He sighed and sat up and looked at her.

"I can say the same thing Kira, about my soccer, but we know this is important."

"yeah.." She trailed off.

"Oh come on Kira. You're a great singer. I don't think it will hurt taking a little detour.'


It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life


She nodded, "You're right." She smiled.

Suddenly an explosion was heard from the top of the hills. Conner and Kira both scrambled to their feet and ran up to see what was going on. As they got to the top, they witness Elsa attacking innocent people. She turned around and spotted them.

"There you guys are." She grinned.

"What kind of sick freak let you out?" Kira insulted her.

She drew her sword and pointed it at them, "My master would like a word with one of you." She laughed.

Conner rolled his eyes, "Pu-lease. Tell your ugly dinosaur master were not interested.

"He never said you had a choice." She responded as she charged froward at them.

Conner pushed Kira to the side and roundhouse kicked Elsa back. Elsa blocked it and grabbed his foot, and threw him away. Kira got up and summoned her moprher. Before she got a chance to morph, Elsa quickly grabbed her and shot a blast at Conner.

"Conner!" Kira screamed.

Conner flipped out of the way and rolled back down the hill. Kira struggled to break away but Elsa smacked her in the side of the head and knocked her unconscious and they both disappeared. Conner quickly ran back up the hills and noticed they were gone.

"Damnit!" He yelled at himself, "What do they want with her?"
