Chapter 25: Life Is Good

When Kellie got home, she closed the door behind her, panting. (hey, you would be panting too if you just ran ten blocks to your house!) A few minutes later, Zuko walked in, sighing dreamily.

"Meet the new girl?" Kellie asked darkly as she did her homework.

"No, but I've seen her. You?" Kellie gave him a glare.

"Yes." Zuko walked up to her.

"Did she say anything about me?" Kellie looked up, and sighed.

"I'm surprised you don't know her. After all, she sent you here." Zuko's eyes got wide, but he never spoke.

"Poor baby, you're dumber than I thought. It's Kierra, you moron!" Kellie hissed. Zuko glared at her.

"You have no right to call me that." Kellie glared him back.

"Yes I do. Because you're in no position to make threats. If you duel a fire and water bender, you'll lose." Zuko took a steadying breath. She was right.

"But, as true as that may be, I can win with this." And Zuko walked up behind Kellie and rubbed her shoulders.

She moaned softly and leaned into Zuko's hands. He was right, when he massaged her shoulders, kissed her, or held her, she was butter in his hand.

But it's the same way around.

Zuko dug his fingers deeper into Kellie's sore shoulders. Like her, Zuko's shoulders got very sore after carrying a heavy backpack. He honestly wished she would wrench herself from his grip and rub his shoulders.

But still, this is just as good.

Kellie seemed to sense he wanted her to do the same thing, so slowly, reluctantly, she got out of Zuko's grip, walked behind him, and rubbed his shoulders.

Zuko groaned and leaned into her. Kellie was surprised by the sudden amount of weight leaning into her, so she fell, and Zuko came tumbling after. (recognize that from a nursery rhyme?)

Somehow, Zuko landed on top of Kellie, facing her, a knee between her legs, and a hand grasping each of her arms.

There was the click of a lock, and Kellie shoved Zuko off.

And not a moment too soon, for her father just walked in. Kellie's dad took one look around the living room, then walked into the computer room.

Kellie looked over at Zuko, who was doing his homework. He sensed her gaze and looked up. Her eyes told him something.

Next time you do that, you better kiss me.

Kellie looked over her shoulder to the new girl called Kierra. She was actually a Water goddess in disguise.

"Kierra?" Kierra turned around to see her old friend before her.

"Yes?" Kellie looked away for a moment.

"I'm, sorry about yesterday. I was just, caught off guard." Kierra smiled.

"That's alright." And held out her hand. Kellie took it, and shook it.

After that, Kellie and Kierra were like from two years ago, inseparable. Kierra had her schedule just to be with Kellie. They were best friends of long ago.

Thanks to Kierra, boys started to notice Kellie. Though Kellie never noticed them back.

Kellie was too busy with her new boyfriend.

After having her room of ice and stone demolished, Kellie became the girl she had once been, years ago. But, she was different. She was dating the Prince of the Fire Nation. She was on top of the world.

Whitney glared at her from afar. Up close, Whitney was the friend Kellie had known since preschool, but far away she was far from it. Far away, Whitney was the jealous girl plotting to get rid of an old friend, just to get to her boyfriend. And her plans were getting ugly.

It won't be long now.

Whitney grinned evilly as she walked into her kitchen, and picked up a giant knife.

OMG! Is Whitney planning wut I think she is? Hehe, well, I ain't telling. U'll just have 2 wait and find out.

INSANITY AT ITS FINEST

LONG LIVE HIPPIES!
