Chapter 2!
Disclaimer: I do NOT own RFR. I wish I did though that would be wicked sweet.
Recap: "Well if you expect me to be a friend with benefits it's not going to happen. I'm not that kind of girl."
"I know that's what I like about you" he said leaning in close, about to kiss her again.
When his lips were just inches away from hers the bell above the door chimed. And in walked Kairi holding Robbie's hand.
Now what's going on with those two? Craig wondered eyeing Kairi and Robbie suspiciously.
"Hey guys, where's Lily and Ray?" Parker asked looking for the couple.
"Oh they went to Lily's house. I was too afraid to ask to do what" Kairi laughed.
Parker smiled and shook her head. "Never ask" she laughed. "I learned that the hard way."
"So Kairi what time do you have to be in at? Craig asked.
"Mom didn't give me a time, why?"
"Just wondering, I don't have a curfew so just wanted to see if you wanted to hang out longer."
"Oh sure, hey Robbie, Parker when do you got to be home?"
"Eleven" they answered.
"Um, you guys might want to jet."
"Why" Robbie asked looking confused.
"Cause it's ten to eleven" she said looking at the clock.
"Oh! Come on Parker. I'll call you tomorrow Kairi" Robbie said rushing out the door.
"So what's up with you and Robbie?"
"What do you mean?" she blushed.
"I mean you guys walked in holding hands. So what's up? I know you like him."
"I don't know what's up. We held hands walking back from. And don't look at me like that we only held hands. Trust me I'd have a huge smile on my face if we had kissed."
"Okay fine I'll believe you. But are you going to ask him out?"
"I don't know. I only met him today. I'll see what happens. Now the more important question is are you going to ask out Parker?"
"Good question, one I really don't know the answer to. She is seriously depressed cause of her ex I'm not sure if she even wants a boyfriend right now."
"Wait you found out why she looked so sad."
"Yeah, that's why we left. So we could talk."
"Well what's up with her?"
"You'll have to ask her yourself."
"Urge your no help."
Craig just rolled his eyes at her and smiled.
"So did you kiss her?"
"What?"
"Did you kiss her? Cause when I walked in it looked like you were about to" she smiled.
"Yeah I kissed her, but don't go telling everyone about it."
"Don't worry I won't. So what do you want to do anyways? I don't really feel like going home."
"Wanna go hang out at my place? My parents are gone for the weekend."
"Sounds good to me lets go."
While Kairi was walking with Craig to his house she couldn't help but notice how much Craig looked like her ex boyfriend Kyle.
There is just no escaping Kyle is there. I thought when I moved to Roscoe that I would be leaving behind all the things that reminded me of him and now I'm friends with a guy who mine as well be his twin. Well looks wise anyways. There personalities aren't that a like. Well not that I know of yet. Ok going to stop thinking now. Now. Now.
Kairi shook her head in frustration and Craig just looked at her like she was on drugs.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah fine, why do you ask?"
"Cause you're shaking your head like something is wrong."
"Oh no nothings wrong" she said with a fake smile.
"Okaaay, well here's my house."
They had stopped in front of a blue house with a large wrap around deck and a cute little flower garden.
"I'm going to guess your mom likes flowers" Kairi said pointing at the roses.
"Yeah it's one of her many hobbies. Now come on let go inside its starting to get a little chilly out here" he said unlocking the front door.
"I'm coming I'm coming."
Craig closed the fridge in the basement and looked at Kairi sitting awkwardly on the couch.
"Do you want something to drink?" he asked pointing at the fridge behind him. "We've got like every kind of pop imaginable and coolers if you're more in the mood for something with alcohol."
"Naw I'm good, so what do you wanna do?" she asked taking in the room.
"Well we could watch a movie, we've got tons" he said waving at the home entertainment system.
"Do you have The Nightmare before Christmas?" she asked with a smile.
"And now what kind of Tim Burton fan would I be if I didn't have Nightmare."
"Not a very good one" she laughed.
Craig grabbed the remotes for the TV and DVD player, turned them on and got settled into the couch.
"Going to take a wild guess and say Nightmare was the last movie you watch" she giggled.
"Yeah now shh the movie is starting" he said getting pulled into Halloween Town.
Kairi just smiled at her friend mouthing all the words to the movie and watched Jack take on Oogie Boogie.
By the time the movie had finished Kairi was asleep on Craig's shoulder and he didn't have the heart to wake her.
Wow she reminds me so much of Ashley. Man I miss her, I wonder if she can come down at Christmas. I think her and Kairi would get along great. And she would love Parker; I should email her later and tell her about Kairi and Parker.
Craig felt Kairi stirring beside him; he looked down to see her staring at him.
"Hey sleepy head."
"Hi, how long have I been asleep" she asked rubbing at her eyes.
"Not very long, the movie only ended like twenty minutes ago so about an hour" he grinned.
"What time is it?"
"Around one why?"
"I need to call my mom and tell her where I am. Actually I should probable just head on home. Walk me out?" she asked standing up and adjusting her shirt.
"Do you want me to walk you home?"
"Naw I'll be good it's not like this is Ottawa it's only Roscoe I'll be fine. I'll call you tomorrow okay" she said putting on her shoes.
"Yeah I guess…so I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"Yep, bye" she said closing the door behind her.
Kairi stopped in front of her house and saw that all the lights were off.
Mom must be asleep that's good. Hopefully she's not mad that I didn't call she thought unlocking the door as quietly as she could.
"Kairi Artemis Goudie do you have any idea what time it is" her mother said turning on the light.
"Um some time around one" she smiled innocently.
"Exactly why didn't you call? You know the one rule is if you're going to be out past midnight that you call and tell me where you are. Now what is your excuse for not calling?"
"Well see Craig and I went to Craig's house and started watching The Nightmare before Christmas and I guess I fell asleep. When I woke up it was a little after one so I came home right away. If I had known I was going to be there so late I would have called. You know I'm good for calling mom this is like what the second time I haven't called since I was 14. I say that's pretty good for someone my age."
"What ever missy go to bed we will talk about this more tomorrow when I get home from work" she said pointing her daughter towards the stairs.
Kairi just nodded and started her trek up the stairs. Of course her mom would put her new job before her daughter. She always did.
Kairi was sleeping when she felt the vibrations from her cell phone ringing. Then came the music.
Dance dance we're falling apart at halftime dance dance and these are the lives you like to lead.
Urge next time I choose my ring tone I'm choosing one that isn't so loud she thought checking the called id.
She saw that it was Robbie calling, then looked at her alarm and saw that it was a little after ten am.
Who in there right mind gets up before noon on a Sunday?
"Hello" she answered groggily.
"Hey, did I wake you up?"
"Yeah kind of" she said rubbing at her eyes.
"I'm sorry I'll let you go back to sleep if you want."
"No its okay I'm up now. So why did you call?"
"I was wondering if maybe you wanted to hang out. Go get an ice cream or something."
"Yeah sure but can we meet around say noon, I need to get ready and eat something first."
"Yeah of course no problem. So what time did you get in last night?"
"A little after one, Craig and I watched a movie at his place and I guess I fell asleep during the movie. Man did I ever get yelled at for not calling."
"Oh that sucks. Well I've got to go my mom wants help with the dishes so call me around noon, okay?"
"Sure, yeah noon. Bye" she said snapping shut her phone.
Kairi was looking at her phone wondering why Robbie sounded so weird after she said she fell asleep at Craig's. She just shook her head in confusion, decided that boys were just weird and headed downstairs for a bowl of fruit loops.
