Believe In My Love
Chapter 4... Brewing Trouble
Soo...
So what? Raimundo asked the voice in an irritated voice. He didn't need this right now. With Jack pacing around infront of him, occationally glanced at him, then shaking his head, and going back to pacing, he really wasn't in the mood.
Do you feel bad about that?
No... You think? And to think, I thought you were smart!
I'm going to ignore that last statement... but... Yes?
Yes! I cannot believe she did that... talk about a bitch!
Well, that IS Adrenia for you.
Yeah your right I suppose.
You suppose? Raimundo could sense the voices raise an eyebrow. (if it has any.)
Fine, she's completely bad!
Now your talking, jeez. Well say something to Jack, first thing to comes to mind, otherwhise he may know you are thinking completely off the subject, then he'll be mad.
"I feel so stupid!"
Wow...
"You should!"
"It was your plan!"
"You just admitted to feeling stupid!"
"It was still your plan!"
"Well, it was good if you hadn't screwed it up!"
"You were the one that called!" Raimundo shot back to Jack in defense.
Jack tilted his head up and held the bridge of his nose. "What are we going to do... You're reputation is OVER!"
"Jack!" He grabbed him by the front of the shirt. "You're worried about OUR reputation... Well I'm worried about my god damn relationship with Kimiko! You have made me flirt, date, and everything else in the book of wrong I've created when I began going out with Kimiko! It's going to ruin our damn relationship because of the damn reunion in a god damn nine damn days!" He shouted right up in his friend's face.
He let him go, sigh, and turned around.
"You aren't going to see her a lot." Jack muttered softly.
"What?" Raimundo spun around.
"She lives in Japan. Raimundo, I think your reputation for your four more years of school is more important than this short term relationship at the moment."
"Short term? Jack she's like perfect!" Jack was about to push him off the edge.
"And lives in Japan... Meaning she's not perfect."
"You're fricken crazed."
"You aren't so sane yourself!" Jack shot back.
"Why can't you just stick with me? Or is your status with the girl you made out with when I was gone and not bothertotellmeaboutthethingyouareworriedabout! Are you just worried about that and not what I feel! what kind of screw up I am, what kind of relationship problem this is going to cause for me? Despite the fact that you may not like Kimiko, I do, so live with it Jack!" Raimundo put his head in his hands and sigh. (1...Check Author's note)
Jack ran a hand throw his messy red hair. "What are we going to do?"
"We? Are you still helping me?" Raimundo looked up, shock spread across his face.
"Rai, course I am. Like you said, despite the fact that Adrenia is gunna screw up everything because of Kimiko, I am still your best friend... That's what they do, so live with it Rai." He smirked at his last mock comment.
"Don't go sappy." Raimundo scolded in his defense.
"It's the truth. Now... I have a plan... This time, it's a very good plan..." Jack rubbed his hands together, which reminded Raimundo how evil Jack could get. (2...Check Author's Note)
What's he gunna do?
I don't know, but I don't like the sound of whatever plot he has.
I hope it doesn't include Adrenia...
Knowing Jack, it's probably going to be something dirty, but not bluntly involving her and me. Which, in a sense is good, but with that smirk, I know Jack is planning something... Bad.
How do you know?
It's Jack! He ain't that hard to read!
Good point, but how can you be so sure he's going to do something 'evilish'.
Like I said... It's Jack.
But -
You know for the voice that is suppose to be in my mind, smarter than me, and know me, it asks an awful lot of questions about my best friend.
Hey, I'm you, not him.
But I know him, therefore you should. Raimundo knew he had one that arguement, because the voice's grumbling indicated that the conversation was over. He was proud, although tried not to triumph, that he actually one a conversation against the 'all point of few' voice inside his head.
"Are you ready to learn, to get some knowledge?" The glazed lips flipped into an automatic smile.
"Cut the Finding Nemo Crap, we all know you watch it." Omi sigh.
"I...I...Do you want my help or not?" The voice spat on the ground, close to Omi's foot.
"Sick!" Kieko almost squealed, but help her tongue just enough, to just move herself and Omi away.
"Miars, do you want to be cleared?" Kimiko asked, making her eyes small. Her look seemed to darken.
"Fine... What you need is diversion."
"Diversion?" Clay asked.
"Yes Cowboy Bailey, diversion."
"From what?"
"Raimundo of course! Who else!" She batted her eyelashes at the name. "The sweet, strong, hansome -"
"Gag fest! Just get us through this already."
"If you really wanted to put him to the test, hire someone." Ashley smirked.
"Hire..." Omi motioned for her to keep going as Kieko's grip on his arm tightened. She spat again, just to annoy.
"Hire a girl. A bitch, but someone pretty enough to get his attention, without him knowing who it is."
"This test..." Clay scratched his hat.
"You are seriously slow!" Whined Ashley, stomping her foot.
"Step to it, and stop stalling Miars." Kimiko was the one to spat this time. It landed on Ashley's new high heel. Ashley's face turned just as dark as Kimiko's.
"If you want my help, next time, you'll think before you spat on my new shoe Tohomiko."
"Fine, fine..." Kimiko let up with a mutter. "Just cut to it."
This made Ashley smile. "I'm saying... Take me with on the reunion... I can dye my hair, put in extensions, put some make up on, put on some weird outfit, and you have a picture cute girl, who will walk right into Raimundo's trap. If he's gunna fall for someone, or is with someone else, I'll be the one to know it."
Kimiko bit her lip, Is it worth it?
All eyes were on her, as she opened her mouth to answer.
"Come on you dirty snake, just take us to him already!" Jack snapped.
"Jack, I don't think this is such a good idea..." Raimundo muttered nervously.
"Take advice from the smart one Spicer. You don't want to see him." The crackly voice barked.
"Rai ain't smart, so just take us to him!" Jack began to whine.
"Oh, I hate how you whine!" The owner of the voice turned to Raimundo. "Pedrosa, I'm surprised you put up with him..." He knew the person expected an answer.
"So am I." He muttered back, taking a step up from nervous. Although, it was much more a jump than anything. It went from nervous, to blunt.
"Hey!" Hissed Jack.
"Sorry?" Raimundo shrugged as the person smirked.
"You have spunk Raimundo. I do not understand why you won't hang out with -"
"1) He's way to creepy... and 2) It would mean hanging with you." He stepped infront of Jack.
The voice hissed at him, as the person's eyes squinted. "What for?"
"Excuse me?" Raimundo suddenly shrunk back down to nervous.
"What do you want to see the great 'him' for?" The voice asked.
"The great 'him'?" Jack almost laughed.
"Silence!" the voice hissed, immediately shutting Jack up. "What for?"
"We need to ask a favor."
"You would have to repay the favor..." The person turned, maroon hair, swishing past Jack and Raimundo.
"Please, let us see him." Raimundo had to add, "We'll make it worth your while... " He managed to whisper.
The person, now revealed as a she, turned, her head, her green eyes piercing Raimundo's. It wasn't long until he had to turn away.
"Oh?" she managed to hit the note of the word as sly, sending chills down their spines.
"Maybe this was a bad idea..." Jack whispered with another shudder.
"Scared?" she hissed, coming close to him and putting a long fingered (and long nailed) hand on his shoulder, making him jump back.
"Yes!" Jack practically scream, but Raimundo hushed him.
"Look, we know he's me of the dark side, but -"
"You think highly of yourself," she noted with a sly grin.
"Yeah, he does - oww!" Jack had got nudged in the rib by the girl's sharp elbow.
"It's ashame you don't get to know him more, you'd be very happy with the friendship."
"You are worse than Ashley..." He muttered under his breath.
"What?" Her tone perked, making it sound less creepy and more angry.
"Nothing!" He held up his hands.
"What is this...propisition."
"I'll consider a friendship with him, if you help me get to him."
Her face brightened in a scary looking way. "Consider? Let's say, try the friendship for a week after this 'favor' is set into motion, with no Spicer -"
"Then the deal is off..."
"Alright... The deal shall be off..." she hissed, turning to leave.
"Wait!" Jack called. Raimundo looked at him with a 'WTF' face.
"Jack!" He whispered as she waited, to let them talk.
"What? We need this!"
"There's no way I'm going a week with them two and the dark side... No way, it's too creepy without you."
"Let's say half a week with Spicer, and half without." She considered.
Jack pushed Raimundo a little, almost making him lose his balance. "But, this plan will be in motion when my exchange students come what will -"
"Deal with the consiquences... Or like you said... The deal is off."
Raimundo took a glance at Jack, who simply nodded. "Alright." Raimundo gulped.
"The deal is sealed." She smirked. As she turned, her maroon hair swooshed from it's normal position, and whipped her softly. Well, it would have looked more peaceful if she hadn't been creepy.
Jack and Raimundo slowly followed into the long, dark ally of Rio, not knowing just what kind of trouble they were getting themselves into.
What have Kimiko and RAimundo gotton themselves into now? Hmm, I feel bad for Jack, he won't have many people to hang with for that half week, if all goes well with this 'him' guy. Haha, that sounds gay, but how else was I suppose to hide who the person was. You may know him, may not... And, he may be someone from the show... he may not, you never know. And dun dun dun.. Ashley is back, obviously Kim knows something is up with Rai... lawlz... once again, please review, and another 7 (yes we're moving it back down, I got the hint) will get you an update. Sorry if it seemed kind of short, but I needed cliff hangers for both ends of the stick :D Well, please review and keep reading... Thanks! Candy and Kudos for everyone!

1) You may think Raimundo is overreacting, but give the guy a break. He's under a lot of pressure. And he's not being too hard on Jack, but you know how... 'difficult' Jack can be sometimes. And, I suppose, if someone brought it up, Raimundo would truly be denying it.
2) Okay, so yeah, in the show, Jack isn't evil... At all... But considering the fact that he's usually good with Raimundo, he's definatly a bit more sneeky than normal with this plan. As for the really the seriously evil chick that they were talking to, well... She's worse than Jack, so I thought I should clear that up :D
