Chapter 2

Kai followed her outside but by the time he reached there, she was gone. He looked around a couple of times but it was no use. She was a tough one but he would break her like he broke every other one. He had to admit that he was quite surprised when she refused him AND punched Michael.

He shook his head and cleared the thoughts as he headed back inside to grab his jacket from his locker and Math books. Not wanting to deal with anyone at the moment, he went to the parking lot, got in his car and sped away.

-O-

Isha looked back and sighed. He hadn't followed. She shook her head and then continued walking home, slowly. As she was walking, she saw a familiar car stop right in front of her. The driver pulled down the window and stuck their head out.

"Hey Isha, wanna ride home?" It was a guy. He had black hair, like her, but no highlights or streaks. He had dark blue eyes and he wore a dark gray hoodie. Isha grinned and nodded. She ran to the other side of the car and got in.

"Thanks, Chase," she said as she closed the door. What neither of them had noticed was a very familiar red head watching.

"So, how was school?" Chase asked.

"Same old shit, you know. Not really different from Surrey," Isha said putting Fallen by Evanescence in the CD drive. She smiled as she listened to My Immortal.

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time can not erase

"You just love this song, don't you?" Chase asked turning right.

"Yeah, so any plans today?" Isha asked.

"I think mom and dad got invited by our neighbors or something. I'm not sure who they are but that's all they said," Chase said shrugging.

"Great! And I was looking forward to being alone tonight," Isha groaned.

"What is with you and being alone?"

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

"Nothing, I just like the loneliness. I like to think without anyone disturbing me," Isha said carelessly, not answering for a long time. "Why do you care so much?"

"I am you brother, Isha, it's my duty to care." Isha shook her head and looked out the window.

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time can not erase

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

-O-

"Kai, there you are!" He heard his mother's voice calling him.

"Yeah, what?"

"Kai, we have guests coming over," His mother said more calmly.

"Who?" Kai asked, a little surprised. 'Great, just what I need,' he thought sarcastically but didn't say it out loud.

"They're our old friends. They used to live here, in New York, before they moved to London a few years back. I think they have a girl and I think she's your age and a son who's about 21," His mom informed as she prepared the salad in a decorative manner.

"Oh, okay. Does Maressa know?" Kai asked, getting ready to leave.

"Yes, she does. By the way, it's not formal or anything so you can wear whatever you want," His mother called out.

'Well, atleast one thing is good,' he thought as he entered his room. Maressa was his sister. She goes to the same school as him but was absent today as she was sick. He went and sat on the computer and logged on his AIM. He looked down the list and saw that only 2 people were online. Ray and Johnny.

I'm the sexiest…says: hey kai

Stupid guests comin' over says: hey Johnny

I'm the sexiest…says: what's up?

Stupid guests comin' over says: read my AIM name…wut do u think?

I'm the sexiest…says: ooo…sux to be u :) btw, I saw the new girl getting into a car when I was coming home with some guy that looked like 20 or 21 n he dunt go to our skool.

Stupid guests comin' over says: and I care…?

I'm the sexiest…says: u gotta do the bet, remember?

Stupid guests comin' over says: whatever, I gotta go, I think they're here and btw, ur not the sexiest…

Stupid guests are comin' over signed off at 6:37 am.

Kai closed AIM and shut down the computer. He exited the room and went to his sister's room. Kai opened the door and peaked in.

"Hey, Maressa," Kai called out.

"Yeah?" A girl's voice came out of the bathroom. After a moment, she came out. The girl had soft brown hair and stunning gray eyes. She wore a blue belled-sleeve top and black pants. "What?"

"They're here," Kai answered.

"Oh. You go ahead, I'll be right there," Maressa said turning back around and going to the bathroom. Kai nodded and closed the door. He sighed and went down the stairs.

As he neared the living room, he could hear noises coming from there. He walked in the living room and the talking stopped. Everybody looked at him.

"There you are, Kai!" His mother, Adrienne Hiwatari, exclaimed.

"Maressa is gonna come in a second," Kai said automatically. He looked at the guests. The man had soft raven hair and bluish-green eyes and he wore a casual t-shirt on jeans. The woman had soft caramel hair and hazel eyes. She wore a simple beige skirt with a brown top.

Kai moved his eyes to their children and widened them as he saw Isha. She didn't have a look of surprise on her face. Either she already knew she was coming to his house or she was really good at hiding the surprise. She wore a black off-the-shoulder top with spaghetti straps showing and crimson jeans. She had a silver chain around her neck and the pendant was that of a black dragon with real emerald eyes. The boy next to her had black hair, like the man and Isha, and dark blue eyes. He wore gray cargo pants and a white t-shirt underneath a V-shaped full-sleeved sweater.

"What did I miss?" Maressa said from behind him and grinned. She looked over at Isha and grinned even more. "Are you that new girl everyone's talking about?" Isha nodded slowly.

"Why?"

"Hey, it's not everyday a girl turns down Michael, you know," Maressa said smirking. "I think we're gonna get along just fine." With that, she walked over to Isha, took her arm and dragged her upstairs to her room. Chase blinked a couple of times before registering what just happened.

"Now you know she's gonna turn out just like Anjali," Adrienne Hiwatari teased. Kai thought it Anjali must be the woman because she was blushing a bit.

"I'm going to be up in my room, finishing my homework if you need me," Kai said, turning around and going back to his room.

Dinner went oddly well. Isha didn't find Maressa that bad even though she had her doubts because of Maressa being related to Kai. Her parents and Maressa's parents had caught up and refreshed an old friendship. Chase had to leave soon because even though it was a Friday, he still had to finish his work since he attended NYU. And fortunately for all of them, Isha and Kai didn't talk much. God knows if they did, it would be utter chaos.

Just as they were leaving, Maressa pulled Isha aside. "Is there something between you and the ass?" She asked motioning to her brother. Isha grinned at the insult and shook her head.

"Hell no, I'd die before I had anything to do with him," Isha grinned even more and gave a silent laugh.

"I'll see you in school tomorrow, Isha. You HAVE to meet my other friends, especially Brooklyn," Maressa smirked and they walked back to the living room. Her parents got up as they entered and she took it as a sign to go.

Maybe all Hiwataris aren't that bad, she thought with amusement dancing in her eyes.

Dragon: There you have it people! The second chapter! REVIEW , oki doki? Bye for now…
