I'm back, and yes, I write longer chapters () and my writing might be a bit different too. But I've grown older and I have changed and I finally got the password to this account. Sorry for the million years of wait. So sorry.

Chapter Eleven
As In Not Warren?
----- Krystal -----
I stood there helpless as Jessica twirled her hair and giggled. I felt a sudden drop and I could feel my self disappearing. In moments I was completely invisible. No one had seen me, or else I would have heard gasps and whispers. But all I heard was that little snob's giggles.
I couldn't watch this any longer. I quickly ran to the kitchen, taking my form again. Once I reached the door I was completely back to normal…on the inside.
----- Warren -----
"I'll see you tomorrow, Warren!" Jessica called across the room as she left. I nodded and got up and hurried to the kitchen. I had to start working. That was already my break, but hey, it was enjoyable.
I sauntered over to the kitchen door. And just before I pushed it open, someone pushed it open. It was a two way pushing type door. And there stood Krys with a whole tray of food. "Hey K-"
"Excuse me." She said flatly, not looking up at me. I raised an eyebrow and slowly moved over. "Thank you." She walked past me without even looking back. What did I do? I rolled my eyes and continued on.
----- Krystal -----
My shift was almost over. I couldn't wait to get out of here. I just…I just had to get away from him.
I was scrubbing a table while Warren was doing something else. I had been avoiding him all day and I convinced myself to not even look at him. I knew that if he had brought up that stupid Jessica or asked why I was avoiding him, I'd burst. I sighed as I wiped off the last of the fortune cookie crumbs. I looked over my shoulder. He was looking at me and I quickly turned around before I could even confirm he was looking at me.
I finished up and hurried into the kitchen. I pulled off my apron, grabbed my stuff and hurried out the door. I hadn't noticed Warren had done the same.
"Hey, Krys!" He called out. I didn't even look back, instead I just started to walk faster down the sidewalk. "Krys!" He called out again. I was walking as fast as I could which wasn't really fast.
----- Warren -----
What was she doing? Didn't she hear me? I jogged over to her and finally caught up. "Krys, didn't you hear me?" She just kept looking straight as she struggled to walk faster. "Krys," I muttered again.
Nothing.
Finally, I stood in front of her and stopped her by putting my hands on her shoulders. "Krys, what's wrong?" I asked.
----- Krystal -----
I was already furious at him and he just stops me like that! Rude much!?! "WRONG!?!NOTHING'SWRONG!" I yelled rather quickly, "IT'SNO LIKEIMMADATYOUORJEALOUS!WHY THEHELLWOULDIBEJEALOUS?" I quickly walked around him and he didn't seem to follow.
After a minute or so, I realized how stupid that was. "Oh my God, I'm such an idiot!" I whispered to myself. I shook my head and walked on towards home. There was nothing I could do about it now.
----- Warren -----
I stood there somewhat shocked as she just walked past me. I wasn't sure that I had gotten all that. All I understood was that she was definitely mad, but just denying it.
I stood there for awhile, with my mouth ajar. I don't know how long I finally got back to reality. I looked behind me, but she was long gone. I sighed. I'd just talk to her tomorrow.
-----
The next day I quickly got to the bus stop, hoping I'd see Krys there before my bus arrived. Nothing.
I got off the bus quickly and hoped I'd see Krys get off hers. When it arrived, she didn't seem to be on it. Did she not come to school today?
I hurried into the school and looked around the hall. I seriously had no idea why I was going crazy over looking for this girl. It wasn't like she was that important to me…right?
When I turned a corner I bumped into Jessica. I remember dancing with her at the homecoming. It was so weird, she was popular and I hadn't been so popular then; I was rather angsty and she was preppy and social; she was ice, I was fire. But we got along and really well.
"Hey, Warren!" She said.
"Hey," I muttered, giving her a small grin.
"I wanted to ask you someth-"
BRING. BRING.
Damn, the bell. Jessica sighed and muttered, "I'll tell you at lunch." I nodded and she ran off.
I slowly walked to class, just thinking. I knew I was going to be late, but I didn't care.
Jessica was about to ask me to the dance, it was pretty obvious. I wanted to say yes…but then again, I didn't. I didn't know why, but deep down in my gut I didn't want to go with her. But most of me said yes. She was great. Then why did somewhere inside me did I want to say no?
-----
After class I was on the search for Krys again. I could talk to Jessica at lunch. I saw her in class, but she quickly dashed off and I lost her. I hurried down the halls towards her locker. I bet she was there. Once I turned the corner, I saw her with someone else by her locker. I stopped, not wanted to get too close so that she would notice me breathing down her neck.
Krys was leaning against her locker and the boy had his hands in his pockets. Krys was giggling her head off and red.
I wanted to hear what they were saying, but the noise from everyone else was blurring it. I was already too close so I didn't want to get any closer.
Suddenly, Krys had a shocked look on her face, but then she rapidly smiled and nodded. The boy's smile grew wide and nodded too. Then he left and she sighed, watching him walk away, turning her back on me. She watched him until he turned the corner. Finally, she turned to her locker and started at the lock.
I hurried over to her and leaned against one of the lockers beside her. I literally slammed myself against the lockers. "Where were you?" I asked right away, not caring if she had seen me or not.
She looked up at me and muttered, "What? When? I was…at school."
I rolled my eyes, "No, I meant like…why weren't you at the bus?"
"Why do you care?"
She finally got her locker open and swung the door open, almost hitting me. Her locker was draped in paper flowers and magnets in all different shades of blue. I examined it for a moment, then got back on the subject.
"I...I…I," I started to red. Damn.
I think she smirked, but I couldn't exactly tell since she wasn't exactly looking at me. But if she did, it was a small one.
"I don't." I said firmly. "I'm just…just wondering."
Krys rolled her eyes and turned to me. "If you must know," She muttered, starting to pull books out of her locker, "Carson gave me a ride in his car."
"Carson? Who's Carson?"
"Are you my mother?" She asked, slowly turning to me.
"No!" I exclaimed. "I…I'm just wondering."
Krys shut her locker and started walking away, but I chased after her.
"So who the hell is Carson?" I asked once I finally caught up with her.
"Carson is a junior here." Krys muttered, not glancing over at me, "He's my date to the dance."
I swear, I was think I was chocking over my words because I suddenly felt an itch in my throat. "W-what!?!"
Krys finally looked at me and muttered, "Did you not hear? Carson. Is. My. Date."
----- Krystal -----
It's incredible, how I talk to Warren. I'm just so open and he sees a completely different side of me. Usually I'm shy and awkward. Around him I'm really sarcastic and witty and not afraid to be…well I just can't find the words, but you get it, I guess. Of course, I can be shy and awkward around him too.
Anywho, when I got home for some strange reason Kevin called. We started talking, but only for a minute because he handed the phone over to Carson. I'm guessing that Kevin called only so Carson could talk to me. I began to blush when he first mentioned his name. Eventually, somehow I randomly asked if he could drive me to school. I don't know if I asked because I wanted to avoid Warren or I just wanted to spend time with Carson. Either way, he said yes.
So after our first class, Carson followed me to my locker and we started talking.
"So, uh, Krys," He started out.
"Yes,"
"So, um, the dance is comin' up."
"Oh yea, that…um…the…yea, that dance." He chuckled and I let soft giggles escape, turning red.
"Yea, that dance." He muttered, "So I was wondering if you'd like to go with me."
I was shocked for a moment, but then quickly nodded. "Y-yea…I-I'd love to!"
He smiled and nodded. "Great, I'll, um, I'll-I'll call you."
"Ok," I said in a soft voice. Carson walked away and my eye's followed until he disappeared around the corner. I sighed and smiled, then finally started at the lock of my locker.
Then, Warren came.
-----
"Layla, Layla!" I called out, running towards the girl in green.
She twirled around and asked, "What, Krys?"
When I finally reached her I smiled and muttered, "You will not guess who my date to the dance is!"
----- Layla -----
"You will not guess who my date to the dance is!"
"Who?" I asked with a smile, but like I didn't already know.
"Carson!"
My smile suddenly disappeared. First Kevin, then Carson, goodness.
"W-wait…who?"
"Carson, Carson Johnson, the junior."
"You mean…Carson Johnson as in not Warren Peace?"
