Believe In My Love
Chapter 2...Consider The Following
"What if... I just avoided her. Would that work?"
"No, she's gunna stick to you like glue, man come on!"
"You're right. Should I tell her?"
"And get her and her little possie to hate you... Umm, not cool for your rep..."
"Someone is going to find out I have a girlfriend."
"And until then, you will still be Raimundo Pedrosa, star soccer player, and the centre of every girl's world!" Jack extended his arm, with his hand straight and made an imaginary arch in the air.
"So what? I don't talk about Kim, and I go on flirting with every girl in the entire school? No, not gunna happen. I love Kim, and Adrenia is not gunna change that."
"It seems she's already started."
"Oh no... No she has not! Besides... in ten days, they're coming for a exchange student reunion, right here in Rio." Raimundo said proudly.
Jack's jaw dropped.
"Already? It's your first day back, and you're already going to see them again in ten days? You are insane!"
"No, Jack... I'm not. I wanna see my best friends, and my girl friend!"
"Best friend?" Jack backed down. He turned to walk away.
"No, Jack... Come on, I didn't mean that! You have to give me time! I spent two and a half months with them! Jaack!" Raimundo ran after him, but Jack wouldn't have it.
"Raimundo, what's the matter with you! You're crazy! Your... Your just... Ack!" Jack threw up his hands in disgust and began to walk again.
"Please Jack. I really need you right now. Please... Dude, come on."
"Fine Raimundo." Jack sigh in defeat. "What do you want."
"Jack... Listen to me. I know, I haven't been all that great for the like three hours I've been back. But you have to realize, I only talked to you three times in two and a half months. I stayed with my friend for that long... In the same house as well... You gotta give me a break man... Come on. You'll always be my best friend... Ever since kindergarten... You remember?"
Jack shuddered. "I try to forget..."
"Everyone threw rocks at you... Cause you talked funny. And your two front teeth were brown." (incase some of you notice, yes that's from The Hot Chick... movie.)
"Man, don't get sappy. I'm not mad, but... When you've been the only best friend it's difference."
"I'd reply to that, but that's getting sappy." Raimundo laughed as they walked.
"So what'cha gunna-"
"What? Do about Adrenia?-" He tried to finish.
"What about me?" Adrenia came up behind them and asked.
"About... What you and Rai are gunna do later! If he's not busy... Rai?"
"Umm... I might be. Ya know, some people back in Japan wanted me to call - "
"Couldn't they wait...?" She asked, innocence getting the best of Raimundo.
"Yeah." Jack nudged him. "Right Jack?" Raimundo turned to his best friend. He said that, but his expression said 'Since you brought it up'.
"Right." His expression also read differerently. 'But don't blame me if Kimiko calls later because you didn't pick up earlier.'
"Cool, when?" asked Adrenia.
"Give us fifteen." Jack suggested.
"Sounds good... See you then Raimundo." She kissed him on the cheek, although she felt him stiffen.
They both blinked and then ran down an ally so she didn't see them.
"Jack, are you nuts?" Raimundo spat in irritation. "Only fifteen minutes?!!?"
"Well, I have a plan, don't worry."
"Okay, well I'd like to hear it. She'll think of this as a date... Which is completely stupid!" He hit Jack across the head.
"You won't be cheating on this Kimiko chick because... You won't think it is. You gotta make this date go bad. That's all you have to do. Make it so it's like you're into other chicks now... Easy as pie, right?"
"Maybe for you... but I have rep."
"Well, I'll get some chicks from our grade to go to the same cafe as you guys, and you can flirt with them. I'll tell them the plan. They hate Adrenia... Don't worry... It'll work!"
"I hope you're right..."
"I know I am, trust me... It's gold."
"Who are you going to get? Some girls from my fanclub."
Jack got a smug look on his face.
"Oh no... No, Jack... Forget it. No, not gunna happen, no..."
"Come on... It'll be perfect! They'll go for it!"
"Where will you find these... Fanclubees."
"Fanclubees? What has Japan done to your grammer?"
"You're so stupid, ya know? It's actually improved it believe it or not!" Raimundo laughed.
"The bowling ally mostly... Since it's like, ya know, it's one of the last places you hung with people.
"I see... Well, it better work!"
"It will! Don't worry..." Jack's smug look became even more smugger.
"Oh my god! Papa, you are the best person in the world! I love you, you're the best dad ever!!! Okay... I'll see you tnoghit. Yep, bye!" Kimiko squealed as she put the phone down.
Then Kieko started squealing, and Omi and Clay covered their ears.
"We get it!" shouted Omi.
"What's the news?" asked Clay.
"He said yes!" The boy's swore she'd break glass, but she didn't.
"That's great!" Omi said, hugging Kieko. She kissed him on the cheek.
"Well, I think personally the girls are gunna need the most time to pack."
"Where'd that come from Clay?" Kimiko asked, curiousity filling her voice.
"I dunno, just a random thought."
"We need to talk about this with Raimundo." Omi said, changing the subject.
"Alright... That works, let's do it!" Kieko agreed with a nod.
Kimiko pulled out her cell phone and clicked the 4 and put it to her ear.
(Wow, he's actually gunna answer... Bold - Kimiko Bold Italic - Raimundo)
Hey Kim!
Hi Raimundo!
What's up?
Not much, how about you... Everyone glad to have you back?
Yeah... Real glad... Some a little too glad.
He heard her laugh. He missed her so bad already.
Like who?
Fanclub...
There was another laugh. Fanclub?
Creepy I know.
Just a little.
So what's up?
Well, we need to just talk a little about this thing... in ten days... Clay told you, right?
Oh yeah...
What?
Just a little busy at the moment, but go ahead.
So... Ten days... It's official... My Papa is paying for it! I'm coming to see you! We're going to go sign up tonight.
That's great!
I know... So, umm... The boy's obviously will be with you, and we'll be placed with a volinteer. We'll go to school with you, etc.
Once again... Completely cool. How long does it go for?
Two and a half months.
Even better! We'll talk before you guys come, right?
Right!
Okay, I gotta go... Love you.
Love you too... Bye!
Talk to you later, bye!
Raimundo happily sigh. It was all gunna work.
"Raimundo!"
"Huh?"
"You gotta get out there!" Jack pushed him forward just enough for Adrenia to see him.
"Raimundo!" She waved, as a joyfilled smile danced upon her lips.
And you're going to go on this date with her... why?
Are you seriously still here?
Like I said... I always am. (yes, I'm putting that voice in Raimundo's head in this story aswell... It's seems right, and gives the story humour... Deal with it... :D)
Great.
I know I am.
That was sarcasm you idiot.
I'm you, so you just insulted yourself.
Oohh... That hurt, I think I'm gunna go cry in a corner now...
That would suit you...
Shut up.
Oh, now I think I'm going to cry.
That would seriously suit you... Cause, I mean... You don't have the awsome nerves of steel that I have!
Yeah... sure... Raimundo could tell the conversation was over with that comment dripping with sarcasm. But he couldn't help to ask.
Is our conversation over yet?
Do you not want it to be?
Well, yeah I want it to be, but are you gunna keep quiet?
You're the one who just talked to me... And by the way, the bitch Adrenia is trying to get your attention...
"So, what'cha wanna do Rai?" Adrenia asked. "That cafe? That's a good idea, you come up with great ideas Rai!" (1... Check Authors Note) She began to tug him towards the spot but then stopped. "Ummm..."
"Don't remember?" Raimundo smirked, she could be so thick sometimes.
"Sorry... It's been a while."
"It's okay. Come on."
"Hey! How do you remember where it is!" she said in an accusing voice.
"I'm sorry that you've only been there once, and I've been there like five times."
"With who?!" she asked with a laugh.
"Umm... One with you, one with that girl I took to the dance last year, and another to go on a date with a girl, and two to spy on friends... Why else?"
"Oh."
"What else?" he asked, knowing her all to well.
"Who'd you go with?"
"Exchange student."
"We haven't had very many... When was this?"
"Uhh..." He supposed he had just made a mistake... (2...Check Authors note)
"So Kim... what'd he say?" Kieko pressed.
"He was fine with it... I'm surprised. Even though I don't really have to do it either... He I suppose probably didn't even ask his parents."
"Maybe he was really listening when Clay talked to him on the phone?" Omi suggested.
"I just don't know." she shrugged.
"Clay?" Kieko turned.
"Huh?"
"Were you listening...?" Omi asked, a playful glare was tossed his friend's direction.
"No I was think about b-... Never mind."
"You're lucky. If that was a joke between you and Raimundo, none of us know it, so you're safe to say you won't get teased!" Kimiko smiled, again making her eyes shut to avoid the glare coming her way.
"Whatever." He muttered.
"So... What now?"
"We let the girls pack..."
"You are so not fun Omi!" Kieko whined.
"What is there to do at Kimiko's house, with a gigantic entertainment room, gym (not Clay's specialty), E-T-C, E-T-C... Hmmm... I wonder..." Kimiko said, wondering stupidly.
Kieko muffled a laugh, as a pillow was thrown her way. "Hey!" she laughed aswell.
"My bad..." Clay muttered again.
"Claaay..." Kimiko threw a pillow back at him, again skimming his head, and knocking his hat clear across the room.
He grumbled and went to pick it up.
"Oh my god! Clay had to move! Whatever shall we do... I think the world is coming to an end!" Kieko gasped.
"Here we go... The flirting with the pillows starts again!" Omi laughed, receiving once again, two pillows to the head.
"You're an easy target Omi... You have a big head." Kimiko pointed out.
"Surprise of the centaury!" Clay gasped.
"Well... You... You... You have a cowboy hat Clay!"
"So? You're short!"
"Well your name is Clay!"
"Your name is Omi!"
"You can't match your clothes!" Kieko decided to stick up for her boyfriend.
"Well you're yellow!"
"You're fat!" Omi laughed.
"You're small!"
"Clay your comeback sucked!" Kimiko cut into the playful arguement.
Okay, there's your chapter! I tried to write it ASAP, but... Ya know, when you guys review fast (that's what I'm loving, keep it up) I had barely started the chapter... Grats to you all, I'm proud!

Oo, what will happen on this fake date... I wonder... Curiousity, curiousity... killed the cat! Wow, that was random... Anyways, moving along... REVIEW:) thanks!
Check Authors Note:
1. This states that Adrenia is completely insecure with Raimundo coming back from spending time with people she didn't know. It also shows she is going to become over protective if Raimundo if he doesn't do something about this soon enough.
2. Instead of going on this fake date with Adrenia, Raimundo should have just said something to Jack instead of Jack giving him that plan. It was stupid, although it may work... It may not... Or something might slip when Kimiko comes. Although it seems flawless now, Raimundo should be smart enough to know that something could bring this up later, so he better not make much of it. On the upside... It shows he's thinking more of Kimiko now instead of falling for Adrenia. He thinks it was a mistake, because... If he didn't remember the name, he knew she'd catch him.
