Chapter 3: The Fan Club
Freya started to shift her weight from side to side and she started to feel uncomfortable. Why did Kenny put the tablet in the wrong drink! Dam him, I won't give him his money! She drummed her fingers on the table and stared out of the window thinking about kai…
"Kai!" Freya shouted.
"Freya, your disturbing my lesson, please sit down and-" Mrs.nami said
"Kai! Omg! KAI!" Freya yelled.
"Ok! Your interrupting my class so please step outside, NOW!" Mrs.nami's voice rose. All eyes followed Freya out of the classroom.
"Ahem! Please turn to page 96, class…"
Freya slowly walked out of the classroom and leaned against the cool cement wall. She looked down at her own feet and wondered about kai. Hey! Maybe I could find Kai, he couldn't have gone far in this state. Then I'll return to the classroom before the class ends!
"Fine, only because of you," one voice said.
"Oh, Tyson you're the best!"
Tyson! Freya crept stealthily around the corner and saw something that made her boil. Nakuru giving Tyson a peck with him carrying kai on his back! She couldn't take it anymore, all she wanted to do was to slap that wrench's face! Slowly she start to clam down and she went to stand back outside the classroom.
"Ah… no…"
"kai…"
"Omg, NOOO…"
The class roared with female voices, class had just heard the news about Kai. Freya's eyes were almost in tears and a few girls were comforting her.
Flashback
"Ahem!" Freya cleared her throat.
Tyson and Nakuru quickly separated from each other and they stood 3 meters apart. Freya stared at them weirdly.
"o-oh hi, we didn't see you t-there," Nakuru gave Freya a huge smile.
"Yea… apparently you didn't!" Freya snapped.
"What happened to kai I saw him and-"
"He fainted and I had to-"
"OMG! KAI FAINTED!" Freya burst in to the classroom giving mrs.nami a fright causing her to fall on to the floor and spilt her tight skirt.
"KAI! Omg! KAI… he fainted!"
End of Flashback
A few days later:
Freya glued on a picture of kai in her scrapbook and wrote the date down. She gave a dreamy sigh and gently closed her scrapbook. He's just too handsome I bet there are loads of girls like me too… maybe I could…
Mariah sat in her bed and leaned against the bed post staring into space. Kai… he's cute and not to mention hot but still… Rei I love him. Maybe I should change my likings and go for Kai. Maybe, just maybe…
Next morning:
"Sign up now and get a free picture…"
"Hurry up while there's still space!"
"Calling all girls"
There was a large crowd mainly girls crowded around a table with Freya standing behind it and writing down names. The rest of the school were guys venting their anger on a poor wall or just ignoring the commotion, one of them happen to be Rei.
"I'm not looking and I do not know that Mariah is one of the fan club girls. I'm not looking…"
"Dude, you really go to clam down and think straight man!" Tyson walked over to Rei's side and sat down in a hard plastic chair, "it's not the end of the world."
"Can't you see I'm trying to think straight here instead of looking at that group of people stand there and screaming his name (mimics their voices): oh… kai! You're the best and the most handsome guy on earth… oh… and come to think of it, Mariah is in there some where! And I'm going to talk some sense into her!" Rei looked over at Tyson to find him kissing with Nakuru on his lap, "don't you ever listen!"
Rei looked over at the crowd and found Mariah waving a banner with "I love kai" words on it. That's it! It's the final straw! I'm snapping her out of this madness! Rei stomped as loud as he could towards the table and snatch the banner away from Mariah. He threw it on the floor and jumped on it tearing it into shreds. Everyone cautiously stepped away from him and a few gapes could be heard in the awkward silence. The silence broke when Rei shouted and grab Mariah's arm, "Am I not good enough for you? What does kai have that I don't? Am I that good to be dumped at, huh? Is it because he's more handsome than me--"
"Yes…" Mariah barely whispered.
"What--?" Rei chocked on his sliver, he wouldn't, he will not believe his ears… they were playing a trick on him, "what did you say?"
"Yes… Yes…YES…"Mariah couldn't hold back her tears and she started sobbing. Freya came and put an arm around Mariah slender shoulders and led her away from Rei, glaring at him. Rei looked down at his hands and his foot where the torn banner lay. No… Mariah was everything he had. And she was gone… the crowd started to scatter and a lone figure stood there still staring into space.
Soft footsteps approached him. Step by step, it came right next to him.
"I'm really sorry," a deep husky voice said.
A gentle breeze blew across the campus causing a nearby heap of dried leaves to rustle in the wind. The long pony tail of one swayed from side to side and a long white scarf waved in the wind. The bell rang signally for class to start, but that seemed far away for the two of them.
"You…" Rei's dry and caustic voice made kai looked up at the leaves falling from the trees, "Darn you! It's your entire fault…" Rei turned around and strode away to class leaving kai standing there.
"Why does it always have to be me to cause trouble…" kai gave a hearty sigh and another wind blew across his face gently pushing his hair back together with his scarf flapping in the wind.
"Why…"
After school:
"K-A-I, we love kai!"
"kkkkaaaaaaiii!"
3 girls were using their bodies to form the shape of K A I. Freya did a small summersault and handed on her butt which caused the other three girls to topple over each other. The crowd roared with laughter and a few cheered. Kai couldn't be bother with them. He was standing in front of four pathetic girls. Freya's head was just at Kai's foot and she quickly stood up dusting dust of her and linked arms with kai. Kai stood there frozen on the spot. He had never held a girl before. Shaking the feeling of him, he pulled his arm away and pushed Freya down again.
"Who does he think he is? Pushing girls around," Rei hissed angrily.
Tyson just frown, he couldn't agree more when he remembered kai pushing Nakuru's body, and it just made him angry.
"What is it with him. He's just a guy who doesn't know how to treat girls when they throw themselves at his feet!" Rei's voice rose.
"Now, now, you shouldn't be pissed off. Heck care what he does to girls all-"
"You don't know the feeling of losing to him! Mariah might be the next girl hurt and I can't do anything but stand at one side. I don't want Mariah to be hurt, I've a ready caused her enough pain and I can't stand anyone, or even me, to hurt her again!" Rei's voice softened down.
"I'm sorry, don't fret, we'll think of a way to work this out," Tyson passed Rei a cup of coffee and sat down next to him.
"Kai…… please wait up," Freya shouted and ran in a funny way as she was wearing a mini skirt, kai was a few meter ahead of her brisk walking.
Kai quickly ran into the male's toilet and almost slam into the door, he abruptly stopped 1inch away from it. He closed the door silently and hoped that none of those crazy barbarians heard him.
"Ahem!"
Kai slowly turned around to face two angry male faces.
"You kid."
Kai composed himself before answering, "Who are you calling kid?"
The door slowly opened and another shorter kid with blond hair came in. He gave Kai a glance and nodded his head towards the other two. The two huge bullies came forward and cornered kai. The so called leader of the gang turned around and opened the door.
"Wait," Kai called.
The boy just turned his head slightly to the side and kai continued, "What do you want?"
"You…" the boy used a finger to cross his own neck once.
(A/N: He means he wants kai dead if you don't get it.)
Like it? Hate it? Review it!
