Chapter 2
Once Krissy got into her house she ran straight to her room and grabbed her towel. After a 10 minute shower she put on a pair of flared black hip huggers and a red tank top that said "my imaginary friend thinks your crazy" in black writing. She quickly brushed out her hair and ran out the door.
She stood outside for a little while and realized it only took her 15 minutes to get ready.
"Wow all new record" she mumbled under her breath.
Just then Travis was walking up to her.
'Wow she looks really good. She has a great figure. I wonder how she keeps it that way. Or is she like Lily and can eat anything and still look great' Travis wondered.
"Hey Krissy ready to go?" Travis said.
"You know it!"
As they were walking they talked about everything. Where they had lived before Roscoe, what there favourite band is, favourite colour, and stuff like that. Turns out they both love techno music, they have both lived in Hong Kong at one point in their life but Krissy had lived there when she was 5.
"This is Mickey's" Travis said with an arm gesture. "Everyone hangs out here so if you're every looking for someone good chance is they will be here."
"I will have to remember that next time I am looking for you" Krissy said with a giggle. Travis just gave her a warm smile.
They walked in and Lily ran up to Travis and gave him a hug.
'I bet this is his girlfriend. She is really pretty and I bet she is really nice and in every possible way better then me' with this thought Krissy frowned.
"Krissy I would like you to meet Lily. Lily I would like you to meet Krissy. She just moved in on my street and I thought I should show her around Roscoe."
"That's really nice of you Travis. You're such a sweetheart" Lily said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "So you're new here huh. How old are you?"
"I'm 14."
"Cool so you are in our grade. When is your birthday?"
"February 2."
"Cool" "so Travis is she why you were late to meet me?"
"Yeah Krissy and I started talking and then since it sucks being new and not knowing anyone or any where I decided to show her around."
"Good reason" said Lily.
'Man I really don't like this Lily girl. She seems kind of rude to me but she is a friend of Travis so I will be nice.' Krissy thought to herself and feigned a smile.
"Come on Krissy I want you to meet my other friends" said Travis. "Krissy this is Robbie and Ray." Travis said pointing them out. "Guys this is Krissy she is new to Roscoe."
'Holy crap are all of Travis' friends as cute as Robbie?' Krissy thought.
"Hey Krissy welcome to roscoe" Robbie said with a smile.
"Hey there pretty lady" Ray said with a big goofy grin.
'I think I am going to get a long with these two just fine' thought Krissy.
While Travis introduced Krissy, Lily thought, 'I don't really like this girl. She is too different from us. But she is new we haven't gotten to know her yet so I can't judge her.'
"So Krissy, where did you live before Roscoe?" asked Robbie.
"Lived in the capital of Canada." Krissy said. Ray looked at her as if she was an alien. He made a gesture that implied 'that would be.'
"And for people like Ray who obviously don't know their Canadian geography that is Ottawa." said Krissy with a smirk.
"I knew that just wanted to see if you knew it."
"Sure Ray you keep telling yourself that" said Robbie. Everyone laughed at Robbie's remark to Ray.
"So how long did you live in Ottawa for?" asked Lily.
"Lived there for two years which was the longest I had ever stayed in one city or town."
"Why?" asked Lily.
"My dad is in the army we get posted a lot but it's not a big deal I'm use to it. We never stay in one place longer then 3 years."
"So you're just like Travis. Always moving and having to make new friends" said Ray.
"Yep just another thing me and Mr. Strong have in common" Krissy said with a laugh.
"You and Travis have things in common, eh" Lily said with what looked like a twitch in her eye.
"What do you think Travis? Think we got things in common?"
"I would definitely say so." Travis replied.
"That's really cool" said Robbie.
"Yeah it was great. All the buses and downtown and the shopping but I didn't really like my school much." Krissy said.
"Why not? You seem fine to me." said Ray.
Krissy laughs at Ray's remark. "Thanks Ray, it was just the people at the school like I had friends but only a certain few and that was all I really needed. I kept getting in to fights with the preps because they bugged me 'cause I dressed different from everyone else. Oh well, their loss of not having my friendship."
"Are you sure it wasn't your attitude that made them pick fights with you?" asked Lily.
"Dude what's your problem? You don't even know my attitude and here you are judging me." Krissy said clear to what Lily was trying to imply. "Man remind me of Pius much!"
"Krissy just ignore her, she is in a bad mood today that is all. So what do you think of Roscoe" asked Robbie.
"Meh, its ok, kind of small. Not really use to the small town thing. Never lived in one. Always lived in the city with all the lights, shopping, buses, cabs, and all the different kinds of people. Like in downtown Ottawa, you saw so many different types of people it was really cool, and a lot of them were really nice."
"So you would talk to random people?" asked Ray
"Yeah sure, why not? But only the ones who didn't look like they wanted to kill me and all that jazz. Just the ones who looked nice and that. I always had my camcorder with me. Never left home without it my disc men and extra stuff for the cam."
"That sounds really cool you remind me of one girl back at my old school in Hong Kong. She was always being different from everyone around her. I remember one day she asked questions to everyone she saw and video tapped it. She asked me what I thought about the people of this school and I told her everyone has their own sides they are just afraid to show and be different so they follow the crowds."
"Wow Travis, that's really deep. I like your answer. I think I will follow her lead and ask a question to everyone in our school. Should get some interesting answer." Krissy said with a sassy wink.
"Oh shit, look at the time!" Krissy said noticing the time. "Man my dad is going to kill me I was suppose to be home at 8 and its 8:30. It was really great meeting you guys but I got to jet! Dad's are really tight on rules when they are general's. Nice meeting you all" Krissy said as she left.
"Krissy wait! I'll walk with you." said Travis following Krissy out the door.
"Okay" Krissy said with a huge smile on her face.
