Chapter 6

We get to our hotel 40 minutes later.

"The damage is $69.42," the driver says.

I look at the counter that says 42.86.

"But…" Kenny starts but I interrupt him.

"Plus 40, Kenny," I say and hand the driver the money.

Everyone gets out of the cab and the driver drives away.

"But that doesn't add up," Kenny says as we walk into the hotel lobby.

"He just added little less than 10 bucks," I say walking to the elevator. "No big deal."

"But he was already getting 40 why did he want more?" Tyson asks.

"He, like everyone else, is greedy," I say pushing the button for up. "He was just asking as much as he thought he could get."

"I can't believe it," Max says.

"What can't you believe?" I ask as the elevator doors open and we walk into the empty elevator.

"That you are carrying that much money around in your pocket," Max says as the elevator door closes.

"Oh that. Yeah, I carry around 100 dollars in pocket at one time," I say pushing the button for our floor.

The other four stare at me.

"What?" I ask.

"That's a lot of money to be carrying around," Kenny says. "Aren't you afraid it will get stolen?"

"No," I say.

"Pretty certain of yourself, aren't you?" Ray asks.

"Is there a reason I shouldn't be?" I ask.

"You are sick," Ray says.

"You are right," I say.

"You're not up to your regular health," Ray says.

"I know that," I say.

"I don't think you do," Ray says.

"Stop worrying, Ray," I say as the elevator door opens. "I'll be fine."

I walk out of the elevator with Ray right behind me.

"Not if you push yourself to the brink of fainting," Ray says. "You did that once, you could do it again."

"You are really pushing it, Ray," I say stopping in front of the door to the team's room.

"So what are you going to do about it," Ray says.

"You'll see," I say.

"Sure," Ray says taking the key out of his pocket and unlocking the door. "What ever you say, Kai."

I open the door and walk inside.

"Don't say that, Ray," I say. "You'll live to regret it."

"Right," Ray says.

I walk into the room I share with Ray, close the door behind me then lends against it.

Was it just me or were we flirting?

No.

Couldn't be.

Right?

And end scene.

Thanks for correcting me on the spelling of déjà vu, Curtis Zidane Ziraa.
