Hey dudes! Thanks to all of you who reviewed! Here's what I've promised to give you guys out there, soooo without further ado please put your hands together for the second chapter of...Love and Hate?

"Admit it. We're lost" Richard glared at Kori who shook her head stubbornly

"We are definately not lost! There are some calculation difficulties which made us take a few wrong steps, nothing that we cannot easily re-trace" Kori seemed to have every idea of what she was talking about, which only made one of them.

"Okay then. We are definately lost" Richrd paused "and now I've got proof" Richard shook his head in an over dramatic way

"You have definately gone mental" Richard continued before Kori had a chance to protest

"One: You're speaking in that technical way again, a thing you only do when you either have no idea what you are talking about or when you're just plainly confused. And two: It's supposed to be the men that are always too stubborn" there was a pause when Kori grumbled something that sounded suspiciously like 'You're as stubborn as I am not to mention a moron'

"and you know were lost but just don't want to admit it" Richad said the last part in a sing-song voice.

"WE. ARE. NOT. LOST!" Richard could see that Kori was fuming

"Are too" Richard knew that what got Kori the most was when someone contradicted her

"ARE" Kori took a moment to take deep breaths in and out "not"

"Are too" Richard said in a bored tone, folding his arms over his chest

"Are not! We are definately not lost" Kori looked about ready to bite his head off. They were standing opposite each other now, a few feet apart, and Kori looked ready to kill him if came to that. Kori started walking towards him with a threatning look on her face but Richard wasn't the least bit scared. They were standing right opposite to each other (Richard gaining the advantage because he was a few inches taller that her) noses nearly touching, when Richard said

"Why can't you just admit that we are lo-" Kori gave a little start when they heard bushes behind them. Richard grabbed her hand to stop her from falling and was about to tease her about her little weakness when he realised that she was shivering, and for the first time he realised that it was cold, really cold.

"Why couldn't you have bought your jacket, its not like you've got to go around parading like that" Richard gave her a disgusted look which was closely followed by confusion when she didn't snap something back at him. He looked over his shoulder to her and was surprised to see that she was avoiding looking at him and was staring pointedly at the bush. And he thought, just thought that he could see tears in her eyes. Guilt struk him like a blade, Richard could see that she was still shivering, but he could also see that she was trying to keep her body steady and was rubbing her hands together frantically trying to make herself warm. Richard shrugged his jacket off and placed it on Kori's shivering body. She stiffened at his touch but didn't say anything, Richard wrapped his arms around her and Kori could feel that his hands were cold. Then she remembered that Richard NEVER did anything that he couldn't benifit from. She sighed and held tightly onto the coat

"We probably are lost" She said quietly, shuffling her feet. Richard had never been so confused in his life. How could girls moods change so quickly?

"We're not lost...we're just in a place where we've never been before. I hardly call that lost" He grabbed Kori's hand, softly, and started toward the never ending path he saw before him.

"I think we should go back...and skive off the whole day" Kori said as they walked along "That way, when they ask us where we were, we could just say that there were no buses." She concluded. None of them had noticed that Richard was still hoding Kori's hand, but then again, none of them would have pointed it out if they had. Someone whistled behind them, Kori froze and Richard looked behind his shoulder.

"C'mon its probably the wind" Richard said although Kori noted that his voice quivered a little. Kori nodded and they'd only started walking when they heard the whistling again. Only this time it was played out as a tune. A smile drifted across Kori's face dispite everything that was happening, she was only too familiar with that tune...

"Why the hell did Richard talk back Mr.Slade for. I mean now we've got detention after school!" whined Bee

"Well it not like its Richards fault! He was only standing up for himself, you're a human rights person yourself aren't you?" Kori shot back. Bee whistled

"Looks like someone's a bit touchy and want to defend her richie-poo. Raven?" Kori rolled her eyes

"Guys-"

"I agree with you" Was Ravens simple reply. Little did she know that her reply was going to create such an affect. Kori mouth hung open in shock and Bee started dancing in a circle around her. Since Bee was considerate of her friends reputation she hummed the tune instead of singing it. But Kori could hear the words clearly...

"Richard and Kori sitting in the tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G, first comes love then comes marrige then comes the baby in the carrige!"

"Kori, Kori...Kori...Ko-ri...KORI!" Kori jumped up only to hear Richard's sigh

"You had the damndest look on your face. I thought you were gone for a minute there" That was a complete lie and Richard knew it. She had a beautiful smile on her face that enhanced her features better than any make-up could. Her eyes were sparkling and her mouth was formed in a lucious smile. That beautiful curvy, full lips...

Richard shook his heads to shake those day dreams away

"Speak for yourself Grayson, I'm not the one shaking my head like an untrained dog" He looked up to see Kori with her hands on her hips and, as if he didn't know, a smirk on her lips.

"What's with using the surname?" He asked, one eye brow raised

"Well, I was thinking of using 'Richard' but...it just didn't have a ring to it. I definately like your surname" Richard's eye brow went higher, but beause of his thoughts this time. It was on the tip of his tounge to say 'add it on to your name' but that would lead to him asking her to marry him, then her slapping him, then them never being friends again, or worse, her moving. But...Then again if she said yes He'd pick her up, say 'to hell with school' and whisk her away while the sun sets behind them. He groaned inawardly, he was day dreaming again. But both their day dreams were cut short as they heard the tune again, this time Kori was annoyed

"Do we have some weird stalker you forgot to tell me about" She eyed him expectantly. He looked amazed

"You come up with the weirdest thing sometimes" She simplay shrugged and turned around, with every intention to try getting back to school...and fainted after seeing what was in front of her.

Hey, sorry for the long time for the update but my baby brother was in hospital AND my stupid family disconnected the internet. So what do you thing about this chapter? I'm not going to say much but here's one hint...the next chapter is going to be funny. Until then bye!
