"Here's the second chapter to my fanfic. I hope you guys like it!
Oh, and if I suddenly stop updating, all you have to do is nag me! I
probably won't stop updating this for a long period of time, since I'm
so excited that I want to write a chapter everyday, sadly that's not
possible."

Chapter TwoSo there we were. Silent. Awkward or not, it was very uncomfortable. Our parents chit chatted for a few more minutes, and I just looked out the nearby window.
"So," Mom said while she stood up and slung her purse on her shoulder. "Let's get going to that restaurant you were talking about!" I sank more into the couch. I was not in the mood to go out anymore.
"We can take you on our car!" Becca said, doing almost exactly the same thing my mom did. Stand, sling purse over shoulder. It kinda made me flip out, but then all moms do that. I guess.
So my mom agreed, and we went into their van. His dad was driving, my dad was in the passenger seat, our moms were in the next two seats, and guess what? I had to sit with him again, way at the back. Of course, we weren't really sitting beside each other. We were sitting on opposite edges of the seat, like we were on the couch. Strangely enough, we both had our arms folded and were looking out the window.
It was a painfully long trip. Neither one of us talked the whole time, just our mothers, and occassional lame jokes from one of our dads. I shifted my position slightly because I had stayed in my previous one for too long. But before I could enjoy my new position, we arrived at the restaurant. It was some sort of high-class cafe place.
"Okay, we're here! Oh, the chicken here is absolutely heavenly!" Becca said, waving her hand as a signal for us to get out of the car. I got off of the car and fixed up my dress. I watched as he, Sora (Becca was talking about how he's studying in the same school I go to. It's strange how I never noticed him before.), got off the car by jumping, tripping, falling, and getting up. It was actually funny, and I couldn't help but giggle a bit. He scratched his head as he shrugged it off like it happened everyday. I wouldn't be surprised if it did.
So, we entered the restaurant. Just as I suspected, it was a classy cafe, much like Cheescake factory, in fact. We found a place to sit. Who would've thought that Sora decided to sit in the seat directly in front of mine. Is he trying to make me nervous throughout the whole thing! I mean, he shouldn't have sat in front of me.
An unsuspecting, young, waitress greeted us and handed us our menus. She was ugly beyond belief.
Sorry, I lied.
She was unbelievably beautiful. She had long, jet black, flowing hair that ended at her shoulder blades. They were so perfectly straight, and it didn't seem too dull, or too shiny. Just right. Her skin was neither pale nor dark, they were just right. And her eyes--you guessed it. Just right.
It was then on that I deemed this girl, Ms. Just Right. The epitome of beauty, I wouldn't be surprised if Sora there had fallen for her.
"You're awfully young to be a waitress.." Becca placed her right hand on her chin as she examined Ms. Just Right, as if she were looking at her for possibilities of a nice future daughter-in-law, perhaps? I bet she was.
"Oh, I just felt like helping my mom out.." The girl smiled. Her pearly whites were.. pearly white. She's pretty and all that, but she can't have looks and a heavenly personality, can she?
"Your mom owns the restaurant? But doesn't she have employees to help her out?" My mom asked.
"Oh, but isn't it nice to help out a lot? Tomorrow, I'm going to visit a local soup kitchen." Ms. Just Right smiled again. Dammit, so she has looks and a heavenly personality. But she can't be smart!
"Wow.. so where do you study?"
"At Destiny High." She nodded. So she goes to the same top-school as Sora as well. Maybe they know each other? "I just moved here."
"How wonderful!" My mom clapped her hands together. "My Kairi just got accepted into that school, so you two can be good friends!" My mom pointed to me as I acted happy and excited. In truth, I was jealous. How can she be so perfect? She has a weak point, I know it. Ms. Just Right held out her hand to me and smiled that smile of hers.
"I'm Dinah." She introduced herself.
"I'm Kairi." I returned the shake and the smile. We nodded to each other and she turned back to all of us.
"I'll give you some time to decide on your orders! Thanks for letting me talk to you!" Dinah bowed down and went off.
"She seemed like a very pleasant girl!" Becca exclaimed.
"She's you're type, huh, Sora?" Sora's dad playfully punched him in the shoulder. Sora just blushed and rubbed his shoulder a bit. I looked away. Of course she was his type. She's every girl's type, I take it. She's perfect and all. I bet you that guys will flock to her like birds to a piece of bread or something.
