Chapter 16
"Ack!"
Jade looked up upon hearing Hilary's cry of panic. She glanced at Mariam who was going slowly through a rack of dresses. The other girl looked up as well and their eyes met. Simultaneously they rolled their eyes and sighed. They knew what was to come next. On cue, Hilary burst from the store's changing room dressed in a light blue puff-sleeved gown. The fifth dress she had tried on since they entered the shopping mall's Costume Town on the day before the Autumn Dance.
"Say it." she groaned.
Mariam pretended to look puzzled. "Say what?"
Hilary dropped her arms to her sides, her shoulders slumping. "This dress does make me look fat, doesn't it? Just say it."
"Alright. The dress does make you look fat." the blue-haired girl said with a grin.
As Hilary groaned again in despair, Jade unhooked a dress from the rack she was scrutinizing and held it out to Hilary. "Here. Try this one."
"Yellow makes me look fat." Hilary pouted.
"Fatter." Mariam chimed in.
Jade gave the girl a chill look. "Not helping here." she said and turned back to the brunette. "Come on, Hil. Don't knock it until you try it."
"Fine." Hilary sighed and taking the dress from her, retreated back into the changing room.
Mariam crossed her arms in front of her and tilted her head. "You know, in the many years that I have known Hilary, this is the first time I've seen her go through so much trouble to find a costume for the dance."
"Really?" Jade looked surprised. "What did she dress up as last year?"
"A reporter."
"Oh."
"Surprising not I know." the girl sighed. "I wonder what changed this year."
Jade's gaze roamed the store until it rested on one particular person rummaging from rack to rack, shelves to shelves. "I think that reason starts with a 'T' and ends with an 'N'."
"Alright! I found a costume that is so me!" a familiar voice declared as Tyson emerged from the rack with a toy gun strapped across his chest and an army hat on his head.
Mariam's mouth fell open. "Tyson?"
"Yup." Jade quipped.
"Hello, ladies. Agent Granger at your service." Tyson saluted them. "Would you like me to escort you for today?"
Mariam smiled sweetly. "No thanks, Tyson. Max has already filled that role."
"And somehow I don't think Kai would like you taking his role either." Jade said. "But thanks anyway, Tyson."
Tyson although seemly rejected, flipped them another salute. "As you wish, ladies."
"We wish." Mariam said and started pushing him away. "Now march off in to the sunset or whatever it is you soldiers do."
"Alright. Alright. I get it already." he adjusted his hat as it was about to fall off. "I know when I'm not wanted."
The girls watched until they were sure he was out of ear-shot before they turned back to the changing rooms where Hilary was.
"Hilary, are you okay?" Mariam called distractedly as she watched Tyson's retreating back. "Did you hurt yourself or something?"
"It's just a changing room, Mariam!" Hilary huffed as she stepped out. "It's not like I'm going to hang myself on the hanger or something!"
"I wouldn't put it past you." Max's sweetheart murmured and took a look at her friend. "Hilary…is that you?"
Hilary nervously smoothened out the folds of the yellow dress and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Well? What do you think? Does it make me look fat?"
Mariam was flabbergasted with awe, making her speechless. Jade stepped in, a pleased expression on her face. "Wow. Meet the hidden princess. Hilary, you look gorgeous." she said.
"Really?" Hilary sounded uncertain as she looked down at herself.
The dress fitted her like a glove. It showed-off the soft curves of her body and brought out the color of her hair and eyes, making her look astonishing lovely to look at.
"You look like Belle from Disney's Beauty and the Beast. You are a total babe!" Mariam finally found her voice. Then sending Jade a sly glance, she added. "Of course that would make him the Beast, wouldn't it?"
"He did become a prince in the end." Jade replied, grinning.
Hilary frowned suspiciously. "Make who the Beast? And was that Tyson's voice I heard earlier?"
"Yup." Mariam bobbed her head. "Of course I hope he hasn't paid for his costume yet."
"Why?" Hilary's eyes narrowed in slits and her voice was suspicious with doubt. "What is he going as?"
"That is for us to know and for you to find out tomorrow!" the blue-haired girl said cheerily. She spun Hilary around and shoved her back into the changing room. "Now go change back into your clothes and pay for that dress!"
"Wait! I'm not sure I like the dress." Hilary started to protest.
Mariam yanked close the curtains, cutting off her friend's protests abruptly. With a self-congratulation smile, she clapped her hands together as though dusting off dust and finally noticed the almost-amused look her other friend was giving her.
"What?"
"Not bad." Jade said, crossing her arms.
"I'm a good friend. I can't stand to see one of my friends all alone on the night of the Autumn Dance." Mariam preened. "It's different this year, you know. Everyone has a date. I mean, you have the Ice Prince, I have my cute adorable-sugar-hyper Maxie. Mariah's going with Ray and Tanya with Tala."
Jade's eyes brightened with interest. "Tala already asked Tanya to the dance?"
"Nope." Mariam shook her head. "She asked him. She got kind of tired with all the waiting and decided to ask him herself."
"Bout time." Jade said.
"Yeah. So anyway, she-,"Mariam beckoned at Hilary's changing room with a tilt of her head before she went back to picking a costume for herself. "-is so far the only one without a date. And I, being the incredibly good friend that I am, am going to help her."
"You're such a Cupid." Jade grinned.
Mariam winked at her. "I know. I'm a gift from God. Just call me the angel in disguise."
"That you are."
"So what are you going as?" Mariam asked. She pulled out a Catwoman costume from the rack, studied it and making a face, placed it back. "Too tame." she decided.
Jade shifted from one foot to another. "I don't know yet."
"You don't know?" Mariam was shocked to hear that. She rolled her eyes upwards as if to ask 'why do I have to do everything'. "You do know you're going for the dance which by the way is tomorrow?"
"Yeah." the green-eyed girl shrugged. "But it's just that…I never been to one of these things before. I don't know what to go as."
"Use your imagination." Mariam retorted.
Now it was Jade who moved from rack to rack. Mariam followed, hounding her. "I just don't know. I don't even know what Kai's going as."
"You mean, Iceberg hasn't told you yet what he's going as?" Mariam asked. Then she brightened and Jade could almost see a light bulb go off over her head. "Hey, he can go as an iceberg and you can go as a penguin. That's an idea."
Jade couldn't help but laugh. She tried picturing her boyfriend in her mind dressed in an iceberg costume and found that she couldn't. "Very funny."
"I know I am."
Again Jade shrugged, pausing to study a full-body costume that creepily resembles a rabbit hide. She hung it back. "I'm going over to Kai's later. He said he wants to talk about what we're going as."
"What is he, your mom now?" Mariam said sarcastically. "Don't tell me he's not going to let you wear anything 'over-revealing'" she emphasized her point by going the thing with her fingers.
"Kai's not like that." Jade said defensively. "You'll see. It'll probably be nothing. What about you? What are you and Max going as?"
"Eh? Me?" Mariah grinned sheepishly. "No idea."
"Mariam…"
"Hey, I was looking out for my friends first. Don't worry. I'll find something. That's why I'm looking." she pulled out a white sheet that had two holes and the word 'boo!' on it.
Her friend gave her the skeptical look.
"I'll find something." she repeated lamely.
"Mariam think I should go as an iceberg?" Kai snorted in absurdities of the thought. "I always knew she had a rather dull imagination. Although you'll look adorable in a penguin outfit…"
Jade chuckled. "Keep dreaming, sweetie."
Kai chuckled at his girlfriend seated on his bed in the midst of a fortress made of pillows. She was cuddling the heart-shaped pillow she had given him for no particular reason except that she loved him. The word 'I love you' was written across the red velvet pillow in big white letters. She looked fragile yet there was a child-like innocence about her.
Bouncing a little on the bed, she tilted her head at him. "So speaking of outfits, you said you wanted to talk about what we should go as. Any ideas?"
"I have an idea." he said. He went to his cupboard, opened it and removed a big square box from the top shelve. The box was light blue and was slightly dusty due to years of storage in the cupboard. Jade watched with curiosity and interest as he carried the box with great care to where she sat. She edged over to the side of the bed, closer to him. Kai sat down next to her settling the box on the bed.
"What's it?" she asked.
"It's a present." he told her simply.
"Ooh, I love presents." she quipped. "What is it?"
"Go ahead. Open it." he encouraged.
Carefully, she lifted the lid of the box and stared at the fine material that rested within the box. Her hand touched it gingerly as though she was afraid it might ripe and tear.
"Kai, it's…" her words drifted as she began to carefully lift the dress from its box. It looked familiar, this red gown she held up. Her fingers traced the fine careful cutting of the outfit. "It's beautiful, Kai." then she remembered where she has seen it. "Isn't this…your mom's?"
He nodded, his expression hard to read even after all the time they had been together. "It is."
"Then why…Kai?" tearing her eyes away from the lovely dress, she looked at him puzzled.
"Because I think it has been kept away for too long. It wasn't meant to be kept in a box for too long." he said. "And because I think my mother would want the one person who made me happy to wear it. You're that one person."
"Kai…" she looked back at the dress again almost longingly. Then slowly she shook her head. "I don't think I would…accept this. It's too lovely…"
"As you are." he told her as he leaned in and kissed her on her forehead. His lips trailed down her cheek to her throat. She moaned softly, her eyes closing for a moment. He breathed his words to her ears, low and husky with love and need for her. "You will look beautiful in this dress. My mother would want this too you know." he added. "So please…"
"Are you sure?" opening her eyes, she looked at him. Hesitation still glimmered in her eyes but faintly. She wanted it as much as he wanted her to wear it for the dance.
"Very." he kissed her gently on her lips, sealing a promise.
She sighed, looking at the dress again. She couldn't seem to tear her eyes away from it. It truly was a lovely work of art. "Alright. But on one condition…"
Kai frowned, pulling back slightly from her. "What?"
"You," she kissed his lips lightly then his nose, "have to go my Prince Charming." she muttered mischievously.
"Planning to." he assured her. His lips sought hers, capturing her. After a while he broke the kiss and with a small grin said, "Well, guess I don't have to go as an iceberg now."
"Crap."
At seven'o clock the next day, Kai pulled up in his car at Jade's house. Checking his reflection in the view mirror, he killed the engine and grabbed the small box sitting in the passenger seat. He climbed out of the car and hurried up to the door. He knocked once and Ivy answered the door.
"Kai, you're early." she said, positively beaming. "It's good to see you."
He nodded in respect. "Hello, Mrs. Summers. I'm here to take Jade to the dance."
Ivy glanced up the stairs. "I'm sure she'll be down in a moment. Until then would you like to come in? Have a seat and maybe some tea?"
"No, thank you." he said politely.
Phillip Summers appeared at the doorway, next to his wife. "You take care of my girl, ya hear. If you make her cry, I'll make you cry."
His voice was light, jesting and Kai relaxed. "I promise, sir. I'll take care of Jade with my life."
Mr. Summers chuckled in satisfaction. "Good."
"Okay. I'm here!" Jade announced cheerily as she bounded down the stairs. "Whoa, what's with the welcoming committee?"
Everyone turned to look at her and was struck amazed by her stunning beauty. The gown fitted her well, caressing her slim supple body in its gentle folds. Her hair was piled up atop her head, with strands curling at her nape, skillfully done by Ivy herself.
"Honey…" Ivy was the first to find her voice. "Baby, you look lovely."
"I'm going to have to agree with your mother on that one, Jade." her father said, nodding his approval.
"Thank you." Jade beamed as she reached the bottom of the steps. Her eyes turned to Kai, waiting expectantly to hear what he had to say. To her delight, he seemed lost at words. "What's the matter, Kai? Cat got your tongue?"
"No…It's just that…you…" he breathed, breaking from his stupor. "Jade, you look beautiful."
"Good. Cause that was what I was aiming for anyway." she smiled and gave him an once-over. "You look handsome yourself."
Kai wore a simple black blazer with the shirt collar open at the throat. He did look like Prince Charming. Her Prince Charming. The necklace she had given him hung at his throat, glimmering in the light of the Summers home. He was still staring at her in wonder when he remembered the box in his hand. "Here. Open it." he urged.
Frowning in curiosity, she undid the ribbon and removed the lid. She gasped for sitting in the folds of soft paper was an antique comb, very much like the one him mother wore in the painting. "Oh, my…Kai, it's lovely. Could you?"
Obligating, he took the comb from the box and carefully arranged it in her hair so that it sat on her head like a crowd. Then he stood back to admired it and her. "You look like a true princess. Fit for a prince."
She laughed. "I love it, Kai. Thank you."
"Well, you kids better be off." Phillip reminded them, glancing at the clock in the hallway. "Or you'll be late. And that Porsche over there might turn into a pumpkin."
Ivy rolled her eyes at her husband while Jade said deadpanned at her father. "Funny, dad. Real funny."
Kai found himself smiling slightly at the man's joke. "I promise I'll have her back early."
"Nah. Forget the curfew. Just enjoy yourself." Mr. Summers waved his hand in dismiss.
"Thank you, daddy!" Jade hugged her father then kissed her mother on her cheek. "I love you guys."
"Have fun." Ivy called as she watched her daughter and the nice handsome young man escort her to his car. Like the prefect gentleman, he opened the car door for her and helped her in before he climbed in himself. Ivy was still waving when the car dove off for a night to remember. Then she turned to Phillip.
"Okay, fess up. What's with the 'forget the curfew' part?" she demanded.
Phillip grinned. "Nothing. I just thought I'll just let them have some fun for tonight. Just tonight."
She eyed him skeptically. "Uh-huh…"
"Besides…" he added cheekily. "I thought maybe we could work on our second child…"
"Phil!" laughing, Ivy whacked him on his arm only to be scoped up in his arms like the day they were wedded and as he carried her back into the house, he managed to shut the door with a nudge of his heel.
The night of the dance was to be held in the school gymnasium. From what used to serve as a basketball court and P.E class was transformed overnight into a place of magic. A large crystal ball hanging from the ceiling spun slowly in the center, reflecting colorful lights onto arriving students dressed in a variety of outfits. Jade could not believe her eyes when she stepped into the gym. It was breathtaking. The Senior Committee had done a wonderful job.
"This is…unbelievable…"she muttered.
"Tell me about it." he said, scanning the crowd. "Check out all those outfits those girls are wearing…or not wearing…"
"Kai!" Jade whacked him unknowingly just as her mother had done.
Kai laughed, pulling her closer to him. "Relax, Jade. I was only teasing. You're the only girl I look at. Especially tonight. You look stunning."
He whispered the last part to her ear, gently nibbling her earlobe. She flushed but under the dim lights, no one noticed.
"Jade! Is that you?" Hilary's voice rose over the loud music. Within seconds, Hilary was pushing her way over to them. Behind her, Mariam and Max followed closely, moving through the crowd that parted for the girl ahead of them. Hilary was wearing the dress she had purchased at Costume Town and she looked gorgeous in it with her shoulder-length brown-hair tied in a loose half ponytail, held in place by a silk yellow ribbon.
Max wore an orange full bodied bunny outfit. He looked adorable as one of his bunny ears kept flopping down in front of his right eye and he kept with an annoyed huff, pushing it back only to have to fall back down again.
Mariam on the other hand, had finally chosen an outfit that revealed her wild side. The outfit showed off her flat mid-riff and the short jean skirt was just above her knees. She wore a pair of dark brown stiletto boots. Dangling earrings glittered from her eyes and shook every time she moved her head. The dark eyeliner around her eyes gave her a dark sensual look. Her hair like Jade was tied in a loose up-swept. She was a total biker chick.
"I leave you on your own at the store and this is what you came up with?" Jade teased.
"Hey, I had to improvise." Mariam struck a pose, showing off her pierced belly. "What do you think?"
"You look like a total babe."
"Good." the girl grinned. "That was exactly what I was going for."
"Really?" Max scratched his left ear with a puzzled look. "I thought her outfit practically screams 'Look at me! I'm in need of proper clothes!'"
Kai smirked. "Hate to say this but I kinda agree with the Easter Bunny."
Mariam shot Max a withering look. "Not really helping, bunny boy."
"Have anyone seen Ray and Mariah?"
Mariam scanned the crowd. "I saw them here somewhere. Boy, you should have seen Mariah. She could have replace Halle Berry anytime in Catwoman. And Ray…well…let's just say he's a Jet Li in the making."
"He actually dressed up in a martial arts costume?" Jade said. "I thought he was just joking."
"Of course that is nothing compared to Tyson…" Mariam grinned mischievously. "I'm sure G.I Joe is around here…somewhere…"
"Hey!" Hilary waved her hands to be noticed, distracting them from the faint blush that colored her cheeks. "Missing the point here, people! Jade, you look stunning."
"Told you." Kai whispered to Jade's ear, earning him a nudge.
"Where did you get that dress?" Hilary asked, looking at her friend up and down. "It's beautiful. I don't recall seeing it at the store."
"It's the real thing, Hil." Jade answered proudly. "Kai gave it to me."
"Oh, that's so sweet!" Hilary said.
"Why, thank you, Hilary." Kai cut in smoothly.
She looked at him, eyes narrowing. "You on the other hand…I have nothing to say to you."
Jade laughed at the adorable confused puzzled look that crossed his face as Hilary strolled away. "She's probably just speechless by the way you look." she said to comfort him. "You look great, Kai."
"You know what would make me look better?" he asked thoughtfully. His gaze drifted over the crowd on the dance floor.
She frowned, tilting her head. "What?"
"You in my arms on that dance floor." he nodded his head at the massive sea of bodies.
Jade smiled, her eyes lilted with laughter. "Are you asking me for a dance?"
"To put it plainly." he shrugged. He held out a hand and looked at her with a lifted eyebrow. "So?"
Smiling, she took his hand and allowed him to pull her into the crowd. The student DJ was playing a pop ballad song by Kelly Clarkson, an attempt to coax more couples on to the dance floor.
I wonder how I ever made it through a day
How did I settle for a world in shades of gray
When you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
And you don't know why and I looked into your eyes
Where the world stretched out in front of me and I realized
She relaxed in his arms, resting her head on his shoulder as he rested his head on the crown of her head and breathed in her scent. It was beautiful, this moment between them. Magical. The memory of their first date resurfaced, the first time he had taken her out…danced with her….told her he loved her….kissed her…A similar moment where nothing else mattered. Just the both of them with no one else. No harsh cruel world. No illness. No pain. Just them and their love for each other.
I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived, before your love
Mariam gazed out at crowd, watching her friend in the arms of the one she loved. She smiled slightly, a little envious of them. They looked good together while she and Max…well…were two worlds apart. Then a determine look crossed her eyes and she marched off in search for her bunny boyfriend. She found him not surprisingly by the candy table, sucking on a lolly pop. His face, a mask of pure pleasure, turned into that of surprise when she walked up to him and took his hand.
"Come on, Max." she said, dragging him away from the table. "Let's dance."
Max recognized the tone in her voice and he knew there was no saying 'no' to that tone. She was in command here, not him. And he didn't mind. Tossing the last of his candy over his shoulder, he grinned stupidly and followed with her unto the dance floor. "Yes, ma'am!"
I wanted more than just an ordinary life
All of my dreams seemed like castles in the sky
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands
And I don't know how I survived without your kiss
'Cause you've given me a reason to exist
Tyson had tried grooving to the music on his own but it was too weird even for him as he had left the floor to others with couples. He started in direction of the buffet table, eyeing the mini cocktails served on a silver tray. Then from the corner of his eye, he noticed someone standing alone in the corner of the hall. It was odd seeing Hilary on her own. As he watched her, she sighed and gazed at the crowded space before her with a longing look in her eyes. The he realized why. All her friends had a date and she didn't. She must feel so alone…
For a moment, his eyes went back to the food on the table. Then Tyson straightened his shoulders and smiled as he headed over to her. Hilary was surprised when he slipped up to her and asked her to dance with him. But she did not refuse. Instead, she accepted the hand he held out to her and smiled at him in all his goofiness. It was then did he see how pretty she truly was. Not the bossy noisy girl whom he was used to but a different Hilary with a feminine side he never knew she had.
I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived, before your love
Ray did not ask Mariah to dance nor did she ask him to dance. They just sat at an empty table, watching the others dance. They shared a similar smile when they spotted Tyson leading Hilary into the dancing crowd. It was about time those two got together. Then they looked at each other and their eyes locked. They shared a moment of understanding…as well as something else.
Slowly, as though by an unexplainable magnetic energy, their lips drew closer.
And I don't know why
Why the sun decides to shine
But you breathed your love into me just in time
Tala and Tanya walked into the decorated gym and stood at the top of the stairs, looking around. Tala was wearing a red track suit, something he had just thrown together at the last minute. Tanya wore her hair in a braid and her cheerleader outfit fitted right for the occasion.
"Well, looks like things are kicking off without us." Tala said.
"Yeah." his date agreed, scanning the crowd. She nudged his arms when she noticed something unusual. "Hey, is that Tyson dancing with Hilary?"
"Either that or we need to get our eyes checked." Tala said. He then looked at her and held out his hand to her. "So shall we?"
She took his hand and held it, not breaking eye contact as she suggested slyly. "I have a better idea."
Reading the look on her face, he understood what she meant and with a smirk, led her back the way they came.
I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived, before your love
And love was in the air, the comfort, the sensing of belong in the arms of the one made for each other…the passion…it all revolved back to the true lovers.
Kai and Jade.
She in his arms, fitting as though she was made for him and him for her. That everything that had happened, the whole world, destiny…fate….came down to them being together. To love and support each other. She to save his soul…and he…to show her life…
Just them, unaware that they were the center of attention as everyone else around them watched them They knew of the terrible trial tossed their way by fate and they admired Jade and Kai for the strength they had displayed. A test of true love.
"Everyone's looking." she whispered.
He smiled at her. "Let them." he said. "They have never seen anyone as beautiful as you before tonight."
She smiled back at him, her smile soft and warm. "Thank you, Kai." she muttered as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"What for?"
"For all that you have done for me…" she murmured.
He held her close and stroked her hair, enjoying the soft silkiness feeling of it beneath his fingertips. His lips brushed against her cheek and he breathed in her scent. She smelt nice, the way she always did.
"Jade?"
"Hm?" she muttered softly.
He felt her leaned against him and he frowned slightly. He pulled away from their embrace, taking her by her upper arms gently. He looked at her face, noting the pale coloring of her skin, almost translucent.
"Hey, you okay?" he asked worriedly. "You want to sit out this dance?"
She shook her head and even then her movements seemed weak. "No. I'm fine. Really, Kai. I'm okay…"
"You don't look okay." he observed. "You look exhausted."
"Looks can be deceiving." Jade reminded him.
"Yeah but words even more so. Come on. Let's sit down." he took her gently by her hand and guided her to one of the empty tables that lined the edge of the dance floor. He felt her grip in his hand tighten and he glanced back at her with worry visible in his dark eyes. Her green eyes seemed distracted, unfocused. He coaxed her into a chair, telling her to rest while he went to get her a drink.
When he returned, he found her coughing into a tissue. Concerned, Kai hurried over to her. "Jade, maybe we should go." he said, setting the drink on the table.
Quickly, she removed the tissue from her lips and balled her hand around it but not before he saw the deep red stain on it. His eyes widened in alarm as he looked back at her.
"Kai…" she whispered his name ever so softly before her eyes fluttered closed and she slumped in his arms, unconscioused.
The screams of a siren rang loud and clear in her head, drumming into her already pained mind. Her eyes opened a crack to see Kai sitting next to her as she laid on a stretcher. They were in an ambulance and his face was ashen. She wanted to say something to him, to calm him down, to tell him she was fine and that this was not necessary. But her voice wouldn't work either did her limbs or any part of her body.
She just felt so….tired…
Her hand was in his and she tried to concentrate on the assuring hold he had on her. But the feeling slipped from her and she was drifting once more. Too tired and exhausted, she finally gave in to the silent restless sleep that come over her conscious.
And the ambulance's siren kept screaming as it raced to the hospital.
A/N: The song is called Before your love by Kelly Clarkson. Hope you like it!
