A/N- Hey people- I really have nothing to say for this chapter, except for THANKS for the reviews.
Disclaimer: Do I really have to say it?
Chapter 4: It's a Date
It was the middle of lunch, and our favorite teenagers were sitting down at their usual table, talking as usual. Rena approached them, dragging a rather reluctant girl by the wrist.
"Guys, this is Andrea," Rena announced, gesturing to the lanky girl. "She's new to Cherry Hill High."
"Err. Hi," she said, grinning sheepishly.
"Hey Andrea, Welcome to Cherry Hill High," Ray welcomed, and the others followed in suit. All except for Tyson, who was busy stuffing his face with his lunch.
"Does he talk?" Andrea asked, pointing at Tyson.
"Not when there's food around." Kitty snorted. She turned to the new girl. "Do I know you or something? Cause you look familiar."
"Uh- I sit in front of you in Homeroom and next to you in Spanish class, so I should hope so!" she stated.
Kitty's mouth formed into an "O", and her face turned into a deep shade of red. "Oh! Right, sorry! You must think I'm such a bitch."
"Yeah, I do," She agreed, nodding, to the rest of the table's amusement.
Just then, Trina, with her usual good timing, strutted up with her band of dimwits trailing her closely.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Andrea. Seems you've joined the loser brigade."
"Screw off, Trina. There's a pole waiting for you on the other end of the cafeteria." Starr glared, nodding towards the other side of the room.
"Well, a word of warning- don't step too close to her," She pointed towards Andrea, "she just might sacrifice you. Virgins first," she implied, sending a meaningful look in Kitty's general direction.
"Oh Trina. Single digit IQ Trina. You know sluts always go first. You're a witch you should know!" She retorted.
The tall girl Humph-ed and stormed off, her gang of bimbos following.
Kai combed the halls, looking for a particular blue- streaked head. He found her, speaking to that dumb blonde girl and the raven-haired boy. He had to get her alone. Asking her out every year was just for kicks, but asking her out seriously was social suicide on his part. His circle of friend didn't really intermix with hers. Not to mention his fathers voice in his head yammering on about social class and standards, blah blah blah. He clenched his fists. Kai detested that man he was forced to call a father.
His eyes snapped back to attention, and he watched the three all go off in separate directions. 'Time to make a move,' He thought, grinning to himself.
"Ryouku!" He hissed, as she passed him.
"Hiwatari? To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?" she complained.
"I was just wondering if you were free on Saturday night."
"Why?" She asked, eyeing him suspiciously. "You asked me out for the year, why are you asking again?"
"No, I mean- a real date. There's a party at my friend's place, and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me." He shrugged, leaning on the wall next to her.
Her eyes widened. Was Kai Hiwatari actually asking her out?
"Hold on, Mr. Happypants," she said. "Your friends are going to be there, it's a party, you're Kai Hiwatari- and you're asking me to go?"
He nodded, smiling awkwardly.
"Are you that desperate?"
"Well yeah, the party's in three days, and I haven't got a date. You should feel honored, Ryouku."
"Right. So why didn't you ask Trina to go with you?" She inquired. Trina was after all, his main bimbo.
"I'd rather get run over by a bus." He made a disgusted face. "So what do you say?"
After a short pause, she replied. "Fine. Since you're so hopeless, I will go out with you. I guess it will be my charity work for the day."
"Well the only reason I asked you was because you're my last choice."
"Well fine! Now I won't go!" Kitty turned around and 'hmphed' in mock anger.
Kai smirked. She was actually kind of cute when she acted like that. He took her hand and turned her around. "Pick you up at eight?" He grinned. He was so fucking confident!
"I'll think about it," she muttered, crossing her arms over her chest and leaving.
Kitty was in her homeroom, Algebra. Her most hated subject. She sighed, she only knew a couple of people in the class, and she didn't like half of them.
As the final bell sounded, indicating the end of the day, she picked up her schoolbag and headed out the door.
"Hey, Kitty! Wait up!" Andrea called out, chasing her.
"What?" she asked
"A couple of us are going to a party on Saturday, and I was wondering if you wanted to come."
"Sure, I guess. Who else is coming?"
"Starr and Ray already said yes, and Rena can't come It's at Johnny McGregor's house. His parents are off to some island again, so he's got the place to himself."
Hmm? Johnny's party? Isn't that the party Kai asked her to? If Starr, Andrea, and Ray were going, she might as well go with Kai.
"How did you get invited to McGregor's party?" Kitty questioned, as the two walked down the corridor.
"I pulled some strings." She smirked. "Actually, a friend got me in. Enrique Giancarlo. He's in our homeroom too- not that you would notice." Andrea added sarcastically.
"Ha- ha very funny." Kitty retorted. "But I do know Enrique, and he knows me."
In reality, he was Starr's cousin. They had all met each other when they were 6 at Starr's birthday party. Even 10 years later, they all managed to go to the same school.
The girls chatted on about random things, as they walked home. Bands they liked, teachers they hated, that kind of stuff. Eventually, they got onto the subject of the party.
"Actually, Kai Hiwatari asked me out to the party before you told me about it," Kitty confessed to her new friend.
"Ugh, that annoying idiot?" Andrea asked in disgust.
"Yes, that annoying idiot."
"Isn't he hot?" She sighed dramatically, fake-fainting into Kitty's arms.
Both girls burst out laughing. They both knew Andrea was right, on both counts.
"Well? What did you say to him?" The dark-haired girl asked, dusting off her uniform.
"I said I'd think about it." Kitty shrugged. "Why? What should I say?"
Her companion thought about it for a while, and they didn't talk for quite some time. Finally, before they reached Andrea's house, she answered.
"I think you should go out with him," Andrea stated rather bluntly.
"Really?" Kitty asked, slightly shocked.
"Yeah, I guess," she said simply. "Later," she called, as she opened the door to her house.
"Bye." Kitty exhaled, and began to walk towards her home just a few blocks off. It was then and there she decided that as soon as she got home, she'd call Hiwatari and tell him yes.
A/N: Yay- another chapter done. Andrea was an OC by one of my friends who has the same name. I promise to update within the next couple of days. Until then- Follow the three R's: Read, Re-read and Review!
