Chapter 4: The kiss and the talk

During the movie, Hilary was scared stiff. She was hanging on to Tyson's arm and his face showed that she was cutting off his blood flow. I sat down next to Kai and Ray on the couch. Kai would ask me once in a while if I was scared, my answer was always no. Ray wasn't speaking to me, and I started to wonder if he was mad at me or something. Kai saw that I was paying more attention to Ray then him, and he started to get a bit jealous. At the time I didn't notice, but looking back, it was kinda obvious. Suddenly, Max shouted out, "We need more popcorn over here!" I took the chance to talk to Ray.

"Ray, could you help me with the popcorn?" I asked him.Kai was even more jealous because he thought I was going to ask him to help me. Ray just nodded and followed me into the kitchen. As I was looking for the popcorn kernels and Ray was looking for a pot, I decided to talk to him. "Ray, I couldn't help but notice your silence towards me. Are you mad at me or something?"

"No, I'm not mad. It's just…"

"Come on Ray. You could tell me."

"It's jus that… hmm…" He lost his words and couldn't tell me.

"You don't have to tell me now. You could always tell me later."

"Okay. Thanks, Serenity."

"Your welcome."

The popcorn was done and we got to bowls and put the popcorn in them. Ray took one and I gave the other to Max, who eagerly accepted. Ray was in a happier mood and I was glad. I glanced outside and saw that it was almost sun set. "Umm, I'll be right back. I got to do something out side."

Then I left Ray's side and went outside. I ran to the tree by the cliff. I was in luck to arrive just as the sun was setting. I jumped onto a branch so I could get a better view. The water was a yellow-orange/ orange color. I then heard footsteps and knew I wasn't alone. I looked to my side and saw Kai there next to me, his face only centimeters from mine.

"Kai, What are you doing here?" I asked as I turned my head so he wouldn't see me blushing.

"Just wanted to see the sun set. I've been coming here since the last time we met. Remember?" Kai told me.

"Yeah, I remember. I also remember telling you to meet me here when I came back. You won't here."

"Well, yeah. You saw how I was. I forgot."

"It looked like you had forgotten everything, even who you were. I was surprised that you even remembered my name. So what made you snap out of your trance?"

"I think it was the slap you gave me."

"I thought that got through. Well, whatever."

"Serenity, I still owe you that kiss."

"Yeah, but ay least it's on the cheek." Then, without warning, Kai kissed me on the cheek. My face went 10 shades of red.

"Yeah, to bad it was only the cheek." He whispered in my ear. I felt a sudden urge to kiss him; his whisper just did that to me. I could see that he wanted me to kiss him, and I almost did, if it hadn't been for my cell ringing.Ilooked at the caller i.d. andmy eyes widened as I saw who the call was from. "Sorry Kai. But I really need to take this." I told him.He took a deep breath and jumped off the branch. I sighed deeply and answered the phone. "What do you want, 'dad'?" I asked in a cold voice.

"Hmmm. What? No love for your father?" A voice answered.

"What do you what?" I asked again.

"I want you to come over tomorrow at 8:30 in the morning. We have things we need to discuses."

"Fine. I'll be there."
" Oh, and Serenity. Don't get too attached to your friends; I don't want it to be hard for you when the time comes to join me."

"Since when do you care?"

"I just don't want to be distracted; you might not be able to perform at your best. After all-"

I hung up, not wanting to hear him anymore. Right then I didn't care about what I had to do; I just wanted to have fun with my friends. Well, my temporary friends. Kai jumped up next to me and asked who it was.

"Just… no one important." I said

"No one important, huh? Then why did your eyes widen?"

"Oh… Be-because it was a surprise to gat a call from that person."

"Who was it? An old boyfriend?"

"No. I- It was- It was my 'dad'."

"Oh… then why didn't you just say it?"

"Because I loath my 'father' and wish him the worst."

"I guess he wasn't a great dad, huh?"

"You have no idea. You know what… I- I really don't want to talk about it."

"Oh… Okay. Hey! How about I take you out on our date tomorrow? 8 at night?"

"Sure Kai."

M.N.: What do you think? Bad, I know. Still, review! And… Review! Oh, crap KillerDolly is looking for me; she heard about the rumble and is mad that I didn't call her so she could join.

KillerDolly: MacchiNightmares! There you are! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT THE RUMBLE!

M.N.: Sorry K.D. it... uh... it kinda slipped my mind.

K.D.: I bet that was my only chance to beat up Tamao…. I should beat you up instead!

(suddenly Tamao appears)

M.N.: (smirks evilly) K.D. looks who's over there. (points to Tamao)

K.D.: (looks to where M.N. is pointing) all right. Call her over here, will ya?

M.N.: Hey! Tamao! Come over for a minute will ya?

Tamao: O-Okay… (Walks to M.N. and K.D.) What do you want?

K.D.: THIS! (punches Tamao in the face and jumps on here)

(Now Pirika appeared)

Pirika: Hey, M.N. Have you seen… (looks at K.D. beating up Tamao) TAMAO! What are you doing K.D.!

M.N.: Hi… Pirika… (Smirks evilly)

Pirika: Oh no. AHHHHHH! (Gets jumped by M.N.)

Kai: Should we stop them?

Tyson: Nah, if we do, K.D. and M.N. will beat us up.

Kai: No, they won't.

Ren: They could beat you up. Since you're so weak.

Kai: Take. That. Back.

Ren: No.

Kai: (Jumps on Ren) TAKE IT BACK! (Punches Ren)

Ren: NO! (Punches Kai)

Tyson: (sweat drop) not again. (Tries to stop Kai and Ren, but ends up getting punched out cold with a bleeding nose)
