Wow, OH wow, Oh wow! I'm so sorry i can't believe i haven't updated for so long! I'm so so so so so sorry! I promise i will try to update more! and faster too. Well here it is, the long overdue chapter 17.

"What are you doing here?" asked a confused Fuu.

"What do you mean? I'm I not allowed to walk around freely? It's a free country you know." The guy gave a wide grin to her and held the phone in his hand and leaned towards her. "Here."

She quickly snatched it away, leaving him confused on why she was so angry.

"Thanks…" she managed to say under her breath. "…drunkard."

As she began to walk away, he spoke in a loud voice. "It's Eric, but my friends call me Kit." He produced a crooked smile that made Fuu laugh.

"Well, Eric," Fuu accentuated "you weren't that sober when I first met you."

"Yah, about that," he ran his fingers through his hair, "sorry. And plus you kicked me pretty hard."

"Hah! You deserved it." Fuu turned around once again hoping to never see him again.

"Hey wait!" He again called to her, "let me at least take you out. It's your birthday after all."

This made Fuu turn around without hesitation. "How did you kno-"

Kit picked up a card laying on the roadside with a huge "Happy Birthday Fuu" writing on it.

Oh crap. She thought. Why did her mom have to make a card too? And stick it right in my bag.

"Well, I am still hungry…" She thought out loud. "Those pancakes were not enough and I really don't have any friends…"

"Well that's sad isn't it?" She heard Kit trying to stifle his laughter.

Fuu realized that she was thinking out loud! Her cheeks slowly turned red. "Oh shut up."

Kit made another crooked grin, which to Fuu was a bit charming but in a weird kind of way, and patted Fuu on her shoulder. "So we're going right?"

Fuu just gave a timid nod.

"Right! It's a date then!"

"Wait…WHAT?" She exclaimed. "It is not!"

"Then what do you call it?" Kit rose one eyebrow in confusion. "We're not exactly friends, and we just sort of met and we-"

"Oh whatever." She sauntered off with Kit walking beside her.

"So where to?" Fuu asked with a bit of excitement.

"Well, where do you want to go?"

"I'm not that familiar with the town. I just moved here a couple months ago." Fuu fiddle her thumbs trying to distract herself from looking up at him.

"Well…"

Kit led her into the nearest restaurant. They sat down by the window, from the inside you could see the roadside filled with vendors and slow paced cars.

"Wow, I've never been here before."

"Nice huh?" He grinned.

"Yah…" She peacefully accepted this "date" of hers.

While she was slurping on her drink and staring out the window, she noticed a cake sitting in front of her. "Happy Birthday" it read. She made a grin from ear to ear, she was so happy.

"Really, you didn't have to…" She managed to blurt out.

"Not at all, it's your birthday after all."

After they finished eating the cake (Fuu eating most of it anyhow), she said thank you and goodbye to Kit.

"What do you mean good bye?" Kit raised an eyebrow. "It's not even the best part."

When he happily paid for the cake, he dragged her out somewhere else. The problem was, Fuu had no clue where. She got kind of worry. What if he…

But it was only the movie theater. Thank god. She sighed of relief.

"Why are you sighing?"

"Oh, no reason," She let out. "So what movie are we seeing?"

"How about that one?"

"Sure."

After purchasing two tickets to the movie, Kit and Fuu lined up to get some popcorn (for Fuu anyhow) and while they waited Fuu spotted something shocking. There he was, just standing so close, yet so far. It was Jamie.

"You know what," Fuu said quickly, "I'm not that hungry and I don't think we really need popcorn." As she tried to dash away, not looking where she was going, she bumped into the last person she wanted to encounter. Jamie stood in front of her holding a half spilt coke. The other half was on Fuu.

"Wow." Fuu felt the drips of coke falling onto her clothing. "I'm really sorry."

"God!" Jamie shrieked, "Look what you made me do! You spilt my drink on me. Now you're going to have to buy me another one."

"What?" Fuu looked up from her coke filled hair. She winced to see what she was talking about. Apparently there was a dot of coke on her shirt.

"Fuu, are you okay?" Kit asked. He helped her up from her

"Hey Jamie, what's taking so long?" A voice bellowed.

"Mugen, that friend of yours just wasted my two dollars, and she spilt coke and me too." Jamie managed to shriek once again.

"I did not!" Fuu tried not to yell, but she did anyways. "I said I was sorry, and it's only a speck! You can't even see it…and, and… hey, Mugen what are you doing here?"

An attendant went over to the two overexcited girls and asked them to leave since they were causing such a ruckus.

"Fine, I hate this stupid theater anyways. Let's go Mugen." Jamie huffed.

"Sorry, no can do. You already paid for my movie." With that, he walked away into the movie he was seeing.

She huffed and cursed so loudly the attendants nearly had to drag her out.

"Well, I guess we don't have a risk a chance of seeing a really crappy movie." Kit laughed.

"Yah, well, you can laugh, I'm covered with diet coke I suppose."

While they were coming out, Fuu noticed at the corner of her eye that Mugen was still standing by the doorway of the theater. He snorted and entered the theater.

Geez, what's his problem? Fuu thought.

They exit the theater and walked almost two blocks to the next destination point. Fuu was bewildered. Even though she was covered in coke, she could think of nothing else. In front of her was a huge mansion, maybe bigger than her whole complex.

"What are you just standing there for?" Kit asked as he tugged on her arm.

"What are we doing here?"

"Well, you should get out of those clothes, and take a shower or something." Kit stated. "My house was close by anyhow."

"My god it's huge!" Fuu accidentally spoke out loud and then covered her mouth since she realized her mistake.

Kit just laughed heartily. "Yah, I guess."

When they entered the castle a woman stood by the door and bowed. "Welcome back Master Eric."

"Thank you, I was wondering if you could just take care of her."

"Not a problem." The woman beckoned to Fuu to follow her. "Come along now."

Fuu came back dressed in her usual outfit.

"Didn't they give you something else to wear?" Kit wondered.

"Oh, well I couldn't take it really. And plus they washed my clothes so quickly."

"Oh, well," he started, "It's almost time, and I guess we could do it at my house…"

Confused, Fuu was about to ask when Kit raced her up to what seemed like the rooftop of their enormous house.

When they finally reached the top, Fuu had to catch her breath she was so tired. "What are-" She began.

"Shhh, just wait for it."

With a grand explosion, fireworks flew from a far.

"That's great, you can actually see it from my rooftop." Kit satisfied.

"Oh wow! It's so beautiful." Fuu loved it.

"I thought you'd like it."

"Oh, I love it."

Kit escorted Fuu back home in a Mercedes driven by his chauffer. It was already late so the street lamps were on.

Kit walked Fuu to her door. "Thanks for today."

"Happy to do it." He smiled. This time a normal smile, not a lopsided grin.

She smiled back and suddenly froze when he leaned in towards her. He gave a gentle kiss on her cheek. "I'll see you around."

She graced her hand on her cheek when he kissed. "Yah, see yah…" She could feel her face getting warm.

The car drove away as Mugen popped out of nowhere. "So what was that all about?"

"What jealous?" Fuu grimaced.

Mugen snorted and walked back to his house. "Yah right."

Fuu entered her house and leaned against the door. Well, at least I got to have really good cake.
