Believe In My Love
Chapter 9...Falling... In What Way?
"I need to think of a way to deal with this..." Omi stated.
"Yeah, let's help Omi first, his case seems a lot easier." Raimundo agreed, sitting in his living room.
"Actually, I think Clay's sounds the easiest, he doesn't have to put up with the girl for two and a half months." Jack shrugged.
"Jack's sounds the easiest." Clay decided to be funny. "He doesn't have a girl." They all laughed, but Jack had to think about it for a second.
"Hey! That wasn't nice!" He pouted.
"Dude, you do not look good when you pout!" Omi laughed.
Then he turned his face to a playful stare. "At least it's Friday... Right?" Jack brightened up.
"Yeah!" He cheered.
"Okay Jack..." Raimundo began.
"You mean Clay... right?"
"No, I mean Jack. We're gunna get you a girl." Everyone laughed again, but this time at the annoyed expression on his face. "How do we do this?"
"Easy, go to your fanclub!" Jack nodded proudly.
"Yeah, and go back to the girl you made out with when I was gone, and never cared to tell me?" Raimundo asked, in a playfully angry voice.
Omi and Clay moked a couple of girls. "Ooooo!"
"Hey, you were gone, what was I suppose to do?" Jack shrugged innocently, only to get a pillow thrown at his head, knocking him over.
"That's why cell phones were invented oh so smart one!" Raimundo laughed.
"Jack, just go tell her how you feel. Obviously, if she made out with you, she'll feel the same way."
"Call her now!" Raimundo then threw Jack's cell phone at him, it also hitting him in the face.
He pressed speed dial (2) and everyone stared.
"Hey! Hey! What's up Kitten?... Oh the idea just sorta jumped out at me... No, it just hit me in the eye!... Long story, but that's for another time to make you laugh... Nothing really, just wondering something... Would you like to go out for a movie maybe tomorrow night?... really?... That's cool... See ya Kitten... Bye." He dropped the phone in amazement.
"Wooo! Jack got a date!" Omi burst out, laughing at everyone's surprise.
"Smooth Jack." Raimundo smirked.
"Wow."
"Now Clay's problem?" Omi suggested.
"Clay, tell the girl that you love her too, then you guys go out, all is happy."
"But..."
"Of course, there has to be a problem, doesn't there?"
"Yes!" Clay's eyes turned into narrow slits. "She got my hopes up, and I got mad at her, and she turns around and tells Jesse to tell me that she loves me. I think it's rather odd!"
"Oh come on Clay!" Omi whined. "Don't make this hard! I seriously need help with my problem!"
"Then call her Clay." Raimundo shrugged.
"Rai, is that your solution to everything these days?" Jack asked, forcing a scolding tone.
"Well, hey it worked with you! And only to you and Clay, because, Omi can't simply call Kieko, and I can't simply call Kimiko." He shot back in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Why not?"
"And tell her that I really didn't have this girl as a girlfriend, but didn't want Adrenia to be mad." He laughed, but stopped when he realized no one was laughing with him. "Oops."
"Rai..." Clay started, but trailed off, not having the heart to say it.
"Are you cheating on her?" Omi asked, outright bluntly.
"No!" Raimundo's anger began to boil. "Maybe..." Everyone stared wide-eyed at him. "Sorta... Kinda..." He was trying to ensure himself now. Then he looked up. "No!"
"Raimundo..." Jack began to press.
"I'm just trying to find the meaning!" He whined, "Jack, you should know what I mean!"
"I do, but... That would be tecnically cheating."
"I didn't mean to!" He began to panic.
"You didn't seem to hold back..." Jack pointed out once more.
Raimundo fell to his back from his position on the floor. "I'm screwed."
"Mind tellin' us what happened par'ner?" Clay bud in.
"I kissed Adrenia when I got back."
Omi gasped. "Raimundo! That was only like two days after you started going out with her!"
"Hey! I went out with Adrenia the night before I left, I just couldn't help it... It was the first time I'd seen her in two and a half months! I just wanted the thought of having to not see Kimiko for like a million years be gone for like two seconds."
"Try two minutes." Jack muttered.
"You aren't helping!" Raimundo cried out.
"Raimundo, you do realize that you're trying to defend yourself against something that you know was bad, right?" Omi pointed out.
"I know." He let out a sigh. "It's just so hard... Ya know?"
"To admit you're cheating on your girlfriend?" Jack asked.
"Jack, this isn't the time to be funny!" Raimundo snapped.
"Sorry, but I mean... You guys could have an open relationship?"
This made Raimundo glared unplayfully. "Kim is not that kind of skank!"
"And I never said that!" Jack defened himself. But, that only made it worse.
"You were indicating that both of us were that kind of person by saying that we'd have an open relationship."
"Rai... you need to settle down, so we can think things over." Clay tried to calm him down, but again, that didn't work.
"YOU TRY TO CALM DOWN AFTER FINALLY REALIZING YOU CHEATED ON YOUR GIRLFRIEND YOU ONLY WAITED FOR TWO AND A HALF MONTHS TO GO OUT WITH! YOU BIG SON OF A - "
"Raimundo!" Jack snapped, shaking him. "Shut up! You're only making things worse!"
"YOU SHUT UP YOU ANNO -" This time he stopped himself. "I'm gunna end up with no friends after this, huh?"
"Yeah..." Jack laughed, lifting the conversation.
"Clay, dude, man I'm sorry." Raimundo looked down.
"It's cool, but... I mean, let's help Omi first before getting into your problem."
"Right!" Raimundo smiled. "But we never finished yours!"
"Umm, I have two and a half months to think about what I'm going to say to that girl, so I'm just gunna have to wait. We have bigger problems." Clay waved his hand, indicating they should move on... Then he chuckled. "Besides, I sort of have a little idea what I'm gunna say."
"Oh?" Jack asked, a smug look danced upon his face.
"Oh!" Clay agreed. "I'll just tell her what I really feel."
"Wow! Clay's turning into a softy!" Omi joked.
Raimundo smiled with sympathy, knowing it's good that Jack slapped some sense into him. "So, Omi, what's this about."
"Well... Kimiko and Kieko had that pla-" He stopped short eying Clay. "plan, that they were gunna plan something big for this trip here in Rio, but... they told Clay, and not me."
"Ouch... Kieko was part of this?" Raimundo asked.
"Who's Kieko?" Jack asked with a stupid tone.
"Kimiko's best friend... And Kimiko's the one who kissed me today."
"I see, continue!" He then smiled stupidly.
Omi rolled his eyes. "It makes me wonder why she didn't tell me? What am I suppose to do?"
"Who knew guys had a conversation like this..." Raimundo randomly brought up, only to get glares. "What? Sorry, only trying to lighten the oh so thick mood!"
"Do I break up with her?"
"I say see what happens." Jack shrugged. "If she ends up cheating on you for some hot guy here - what?"
"Did you just call guys hot?"
"Well, in a girls point of view, yes... In my point of view... no way!"
"Let's hope so Par'ner." Clay laughed.
Jack simply sunk even further into the floor.
"Omi, just let it be, and see what happens... Eventually something drastic will happen and the winds will change... So you can be sure that things won't stay like this." Raimundo gave advice to his yellow friend.
"But will things turn for the worst?"
"Only time can tell." Clay said, tipping his hat. "Only time can tell." He sigh.
They all didn't know exactly what that meant... But they were going to find out soon enough.

...Kimiko was looking at her friend, when suddenly she bumped into someone. She was just about to tell them to watch it, but then she looked up.
"Oh, sorry, my fault." There was a strong hand extended to her, and Kimiko tenderly took it with a smile. "My name's Alex."
"I'm Kimiko." She smiled at him...
"You don't look like you're from around here... Am I right?" He asked with a smile.
"Actually... I'm from Japan..." She smiled back.
"I see. Well... If you ladies... and Adrenia, would like a grand tour, I'd be happy to give it to you." He shrugged.
Kimiko blinked. He had messy blonde hair, clear, sapphire, ocean blue eyes, a great smile, tanned skin... and an already oh so great personality. "Sure!" She happilly offered.
"Kim-" Kieko was about to say, but someone walked up to Alex.
"Hey! You coming with us and these lovely ladies... And Adrenia to take a tour?" He asked his friend.
"Sure!"
"Great, come on Griffon." Griffon had brown hair that stuck up every which way, cute hazel green eyes, also with tanned skin.
"So, who are these lovely girls?"
"This is Kimiko." Alex put his arm around her, "And that's..."
"Kieko!" Kieko piped up, obviously looking at the one called Griffon.
"Right." Alex smiled. It wasn't sarcastic, or uncaring... Or even a mock. It was a true, nice, considerate, and caring smile. Everything that made Kimiko melt. What she didn't understand was... When she fell for Raimundo, she fell for the cocky, charming, uncaring but caring, ego maniac with a problem for smirking or having a really smug look on his face, but also when he meant it, was really sincere, kind, caring... And all of that. But, when she melted for Alex, she did because he was everything Raimundo turned out to be at first glance... She thought of all of the things that Alex really was, when it was time to get to know him.
"Hey, you know..." Adrenia started, but then she stopped. I'm going to let this go... Because if Kimiko falls for Alex, Raimundo will be all mine... She smirked evily to herself and kept walking.
"Yeah?" Alex asked.
"Oh no, just ignore me!" She smiled tenitivly.
"No, it's okay... Go ahead." He nodded to her with another charming smile.
"I was just going to say... You know, we could go out to eat!"
"That sounds great!" Griffon cheered, "Let's go!" They all ran off.
Kimiko's mind was in a jumble. She had so many thoughts, but the only one that came out clear was going out to eat with these newly found boys, Kieko and Adrenia. There was another clearing... And it was her crush voice that said, 'You're falling for him Kimiko' With that, the thought twisted again, becoming unreadable.
No I'm not... I love Raimundo... Right?
