Chapter three

"See Kai," Tala said pointing to the picture Bryan was stabbing, "Its working perfectly, Bryan's already jealous."

"Tala," Kai growled, "This isn't working perfectly. You lied to me about them."

"About who," Tala asked confused.

"Mariah and Rei."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw them together. He was hugging her and laughing!"

"Are you sure he wasn't crying?"

"Yes Tala! I know the difference between crying and laughing. This was definitely laughing!"

"How much do you want to bet that he wasn't laughing?"

"$100."

"Deal."


Spencer, Bryan, Rei, Mariah and Oliver had all gotten to the vicinity of the Majestics rooms at the same time.

"So Oliver," Mariah began, "How did you meet this girl?"

"Her room is right next to ours and Johnny ran into her…literally. Then his insisted upon making sure she was alright even though she said she was fine."

Mariah batted her eyelashes, "You don't like her Olli do you?"

Oliver gave her a sideways glance, "No Mariah I don't," Mariah smiled and Spencer rolled his eyes at her ignorance, "I have Enrique." Mariah's grin faltered and became a pout.

Oliver opened the door and ushered them in. He led them through the kitchen and into the dining room, where an anxious Enrique was waiting. He greeted his boyfriend with a kiss, "Thank goodness you're here! I think he's about to ask her."

Enrique took them to the living room where they met the girl who caught Johnny's meticulous eye.

"Rei, Mariah, Bryan, this is Rayne." Said three looked towards the couch to see Johnny practically throwing himself on Rayne. She wasn't what people would call 'hot,' but she wasn't ugly either. She was pretty in the sense that she didn't care what anyone thought, and was comfortable with herself.

"You know," Mariah began blunt as usual, "You could be really pretty if you wore makeup."

Rayne turned as if she didn't even the comment, "You were right Johnny she does wear too much pink."

Rei held back a laugh at the look on Johnny's face while Bryan snickered openly. Spencer and Oliver shared a gleeful glance.

"What did you say about me Johnny?"

"Down Kitty," Rayne mumbled.

"Well-I," Johnny collected himself, "What I meant to say Mariah was that you wear a lot of pink and it wouldn't work on many girls like…Rayne for example," said girl just shook her head with a smile, "she could never pull it off, but for you it works perfectly." Mariah calmed down but still glared at them.

"Johnny," Rayne began, "Have you ever considered becoming a lawyer?"

"He can't be a lawyer," Rei burst, "Kai's going to be a lawyer!"

"Are you saying that Kai would me a better lawyer than me because-"

"Down Johnny, down boy," Rayne commanded, "What do you mean Rei?" She nodded towards the empty space on the couch. Rei went over to her and explained The Book.

"How did she do that," Oliver commented to his boyfriend, "I've never seen anyone but Robert make him quiet before."

"Who cares how as long as she teaches it to me," Enrique exclaimed.

"Hey Rayne?"

"Oooooo… guys this is it; he's going to ask her!"

"Could I talk to you alone?"

"Johnny if you have anything to say to me, you can say it in front of everyone."

"Fine," Johnny mumbled disappointed, "Will you go out with me?"

"No."

"What to you mean no," Johnny exploded.

"I mean," Rayne replied as calm as usual, "no I don't want to go out with you. I'm no interested in dating anyone right now."

Johnny's face softened, "You mean I might still have a chance?" He asked hopefully.

"Maybe," She replied softly.

"Guys I'm confused," Enrique whined, "Was that a yes or a no?"

"Both," Robert appeared in the doorway giving his lover a quick peck on the mouth, "She would make a great diplomat. By saying both no and maybe she left her options open, allowing her to stay friends with Johnny while deciding whether or not he would make a good boyfriend."

Rayne hearing this flashed Robert a grin.

"Wait," Spencer said, "than who won the bet?"


"But Tala," Kai whined, "How do I know if he's gay?"

Tala sighed at Kai's ignorance, "I'll come to your room tonight and if he leaves without insulting us we'll assume he's gay."

"But Tala!"

"No, stop worrying about it, everything will be fine."

"You're right. Wait!" Tala sighed, "What if Bryan isn't gay?"

Tala's eyes went wide, "I hadn't thought of that…"


"Pay up Spencer. I told you she would be able to cheer Rei up." Spencer grudgingly handed Oliver a 20 dollar bill.

Rayne looked at them warily, "You bet on whether or not I could cheer Rei up," they nodded in response, "You're insane."

"Tell me about it," Robert muttered.

"Back to the matter at hand," Enrique interrupted, "Did anyone figure out what was bothering Rei?"

Everyone except Rayne nodded no, "Isn't it obvious? Rei likes Kai. Did you see the way he brightened when we spoke of Kai?"

They were all dumbstruck. How could they have missed it? Rei was heartbroken.

"You guys call yourself his friends, yet you couldn't even figure out what was bothering him, while an outsider could guess it on the first try!"

"Johnny, don't be mean. Besides," she grinned, "You didn't know either."

"I did so know it, I was just testing you," she gave him a disbelieving look, "Okay fine I didn't know. Are you happy now?" Rayne and Johnny kept arguing while their friends set up another bet.

"Look at them," Enrique said, "They are so into each other."

"Johnny might actually fall for this one," Robert said wisely, "He really seems to care about what she thinks."

"They'll be together in three days," Oliver stated.

"No way," Spencer rebutted, "A week."

"You want to bet?"

"$20"

"Deal," They shook.

"You guys gamble way too much," Robert mumbled.

"We know."


Rei was tired, both mentally and physically. All he wanted to do was go to his room and sleep. But, he was afraid, afraid of Kai. He wasn't ready to face him yet and he certainly ready to face Tala. True Rayne had cheered him up, but as soon as he left all his troubles came crashing down on him.

Rei looked like a zombie and he was scaring little children away. "Rei," Lee began worried about his friend's health, "Go upstairs and get some rest, you like the walking dead." Rei nodded too tired to complain and headed upstairs.

Lee shook his head at his friend's odd behavior and continued on his way. Michael had called him saying something about Mariah and Emily arguing over Kenny again. He reached the All Starz room a few moments later and entered the living room only to see Emily pulling Kenny one way and Mariah pulling him in the opposite direction.

"Michael," Lee growled, "What happened here?"

Michael shuttered at the memory, "Mariah and Emily asked Kenny which one of them he wanted to go out with and he answered Emily. The next thing I knew Mariah had grabbed Kenny and Emily tried to take him back."

Lee sighed embarrassed by his sister's actions, "How do we get them to stop before Kenny is torn in half?"

Michael replied his voice suddenly husky, "I know one way."

"Wha-" Lee was cut off by Michael's lips upon his own. His eyes fluttered and closed while he began to kiss back.

They were broken apart by Mariah's cry of, "Why doesn't anyone love ME!"

She ran away crying not noticing a figure following her.


"Tala, do we have to do this now?" Kai protested, "He's asleep! I don't want to wake him!"

"Kai, if we don't do in there and pretend to ravish each others bodies, Bryan will know we aren't really together!"

"Fine," Kai huffed.

He opened his door and Tala began kissing him as they fumbled towards the bed.


Rei was startled awake by the sound of the door opening. He looked up expecting to see Kai…alone. Instead he was greeted by the sight of Tala and Kai exploring each other, finding their way to Kai's bed.

Silently he grabbed his pillow and blanket and crept out the door. He went to the one person who would understand his situation better than anyone else. He ventured into a dangerous unknown territory…Bryan's room.


That's all for Chapter three. Who do you guys want Mariah to be with because I have absolutely no idea who to put her with. It would be the person who followed her while she was crying.
