Kai and Eri have a civilized conversation for once. And Chi and Tala over hear. Let's see what happens.

Kai And Eri's civilized convo

Eri walked into the classroom early to find one other student there. Kai. It was as if he had been waiting for her because as soon as she sat down, he walked over. This confused her, thrilled her, and scared her. She wondered why too.

"What do you want Kai?" She asked in her calm and level tone.

"Look, I just want to talk for a while, ok?" He said sounding tired.

"'Bout what?" Eri asked without looking at him, again.

"Uh...You." He said sort of unsure of his answer.

"What about me?" Eri asked with a raised eyebrow as she turned her head to look at the older boy.

"Why are you here?" He asked with a desperate sort of tone.

"Because I have to be. I don't know why exactly, but I have to be." Eri whispered in her quiet voice.

"Why did you choose me?" Kai asked in a very direct voice.

Chi was walking down the hall when she saw Tala coming her way. She held in the urge to snort and spit at his feet while turning her head away from him. He noticed it too.

"Ok, look Christina, I'm sorry about Miaka, ok?" Tala asked and waited for the smaller girls response. He got none. "I found out what I did from Kane and I'm sorry. I just, I'm just like that sometimes and you know it." Tala persisted.

"I'm not the one you need to tell." Chi muttered angrily before shoving past Tala's larger form only to have him grab her wrist before she could get very far.

"I know that!" He hissed softly with his Russian accent shifting through his speech. "But I don't know where to find Miaka and I don't know what to say to her."

"Well, ask her on a date or something. OR have you finally learnt that you can't just ask people to go out with you because you think it'll make them feel better?" Chi's voice was like iced daggers piercing his very soul.

"Well I guess I could-" Chi had cut him off.

"The only person that knows where in Fe Miaka is is Eri. And right now, she's in that classroom having a chat with Kai..." Chi and Tala looked at each other momentarily.

"CHAT WITH KAI?!" They both shouted in whispered voices.

Tala looked at Chi asking her a silent question, she nodded back at his uncertain/mischievous eyes. It was time for a little eavesdropping.

"Well, your ego was too big and inflated. I just had to bring it down a notch. I often find it's my job to do that to people like you." Eri said matter-of-factly.

"Was? My ego was too big?" Kai asked with a smirk.

"Well I have taken it down a bit, haven't I?" Eri asked smirking back at him. "Or do you need more public humiliation?" she asked with a sinister grin taking her features.

"Fine, fine, I agree, it has gone down a bit since you came along. I mean, I try harder with most things...and I don't always use my money to get me what I want." Kai said with a thoughtful look on.

"And here I was planning to make you look like my submissive boyfriend in front of everybody." Eri chuckled.

"I don't think Johnny would like that." Kai muttered angrily.

"And why's that?" Eri asked a bit confused.

"Are you stupid?! It's so obvious!!!" Kai shouted waving his arms around for emphasis. "He likes you Eri! No, he is lovesick over you! Can't you see it?!" Kai shouted still waving his arms around.

"You're spluttering all over my desk, please stop. And I guess I have noticed that he treats me differently than all others. But I wouldn't exactly say that it is a movement of affection." Eri said once again staring blankly at Kai.

Kai sighed and slumped back into his chair. "You're a hopeless case woman." He muttered in frustration.

"Kai's right Eri, it is obvious." Said a familiar male voice. "Johnny totally digs you. Christina and I had this whole convo about it." Tala smirked.

"Oh great, now the world is conspiring against me." Eri muttered. "First Dero, then Tego and now Johnny. Joy." She said very unenthusiastically.

"I didn't mean to let Tala know you know?" Chi said as she appeared from behind Tala.

"So we're your whole world now are we?" Kai asked with a smirk.

"You're one of them. I have many worlds fool." Eri said in a slick voice that made Kai feel stupid.

"And who're Dero and Tego?" Kai added trying to recover.

"None of your business." Eri whispered in a harsh voice. That was the most interesting conversation of that day for our gang. And it would never be repeated.
