Ok so now that I'm on summer vacation I'll try and work on this more often. I know you all really like this story (at least the ones that have reviewed.) so I have made a promise to finish this story. I already have four more stories after this lined up with these characters so hold on. Ok now to the reviewers.

Kasumi: sigh gee thanks for the review at school. I know it was short but I decided to put what they were doing in different chapters. Here's your hulless cheesy popcorn and cherry kool-aid. Please keep reviewing. Aragato.

I Need More Cowbell: Cool name! Once again I know what its like to have a computer being stupid so thanks for reading. I will try and update faster. Here's some popcorn and kool-aid. (whatever flavors you like)

As for everyone else REVIEW! Unless your computer is being stupid then I completely forgive you.

One more thing, I would like to dedicate this story. I dedicate it to all my friends who gave me great character personalities for this story, and I would REALLY like to thank the right back corner of my driver's education class. You guys are real inspirers.

NOW ON WITH THE STORY!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This is strictly following Kristen and Bri

Chapter 8: Room Discussions

(Once again this takes place during the last chapter)

Kristen and Bri sat in Kristen's stateroom as they looked at the menu for that night. Kristen was busy trying to pronounce the names of the foods while Bri had a look of disgust for every description. Finally Bri just fell back onto the bed.

"That's it. If we survive this thing, I am going to make sure we get a burger in America." She exclaimed, tossing a pillow up into the air.

"I'll agree with you there Bri. Looking at the menu I think I'd rather be down in third class. They have like normal chicken and that kind of thing." Kristen said as she too fell backward. The two began a game of tossing the pillow back and forth, until Bri sat back up.

"Well then why don't we go down there tomorrow night? We could probably get everyone else to come, especially Emma since her whole little group is down there. We could see what the food is really like down there and probably have a lot more fun than talking about these horrible dresses like we always do with the wealthy." Bri said to Kristen in almost a pleading sort of way. Kristen for once did not roll her eyes at this kind of tone. Instead she got up and nodded. Bri was about to cheer when she heard yelling outside their door.

"Hey you! Can you please tell me who the heck I am engaged to? Hey, don't give me that look. I'm not crazy! DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THIS SHIP IS GOING TO SINK!" Kristen and Bri popped their heads out of the door to see a short, teenage, boy yelling at a poor man that looked like he was about to call the asylum. The two girls looked at each other with their eyebrows raised.

"Rory?" Bri asked.

"Rory." Kristen said shaking her head in a desperate sort of way. Rory was their friend from school who was often mistaken for a girl, at least when you looked at him from far away. His temper almost matched Ashley's and his long black hair covered his eyes. He turned around to see the two looking at him oddly.

"Oh my God thank you I have found someone I know!" He screamed and then, without even asking he ran inside the stateroom and sat down on the bed. The girls quickly turned around while shutting the door. They began to think that maybe they should be calling the asylum too.

"Umm…Rory, are you ok?" Bri asked while Kristen stood by the door just in case someone was bringing officers to arrest their friend.

"Actually Bri I'm not alright. Everyone keeps congratulating me for being engaged, and I have no clue who I'm engaged to. Even when I told the purser that her initials were A.M. he said their were too many people with those initials. So right now I've been wandering around the ship asking people if they know who I'm engaged to. Does that sound crazy?" He redirected his voice toward Kristen, who was laughing loudly. Bri was also laughing but it was more of a giggle, not the way Kristen was laughing right now. The tall brunette wiped a small tear from her eye before looking at the short boy.

"Well Rory I think I can help you out because I think I know who you're engaged to." She said with a smirk. Rory stood up quickly with anticipation while Bri sat there confused.

"Who is it!" Rory asked excitedly, as if his whole life he had been waiting for this answer.

"Tell you what, I'll bring her to meet you tomorrow." Kristen said with a smile. Rory nodded ok and was about to leave when he pointed to the window. The group looked out and saw Emma tying a rope around her and then they watched as she jumped down to the lower deck. A couple minutes passed, and Courtney and John showed up looking over the deck. The group looked at each other.

"Well that was weird…" Kristen said softly.

"Yeah it was." Rory added.

"Pretend we didn't see a thing?" Bri asked, still looking out the window.

"Yep." The other two said unanimously. Rory, once again said good-bye and then this time he left. The two girls sat quietly for a moment before Bri looked Kristen in admiration.

"So who is Rory's fiancée?" she asked her tall friend who was still standing up. Kristen got the goofy grin on her face again and looked at her.

"Well you weren't there the whole time yesterday but when we were in Ashley's and Courtney's stateroom, Ashley had been going on about a fiancée by the initials of R.B., and if my memory is correct I believe that those are Rory's exact initials." She stated, watching as Bri got an equally crazy look on her face.

"And I believe our dear friend Ashley has the last name that starts with M right?" the small gothic girl added. Kristen nodded furiously before looking back out the window to see that Ashley, and a wounded TJ had joined the group. "Should we tell her?" Bri asked.

"No, we'll let her find out tomorrow." Kristen said. "Now let's get ready for dinner." She added as the trumpet sounded.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

(At dinner)

Kristen and Bri entered the dinning area after watching as TJ and John tried to help Ashley down the Grand Staircase. The room, once again, looked huge beyond compare and it took the two three minutes to find the right table.

It did not go unnoticed by the two that Emma had brought her jocks here and right now the guy-obsessed girl was talking to Matt while looking at Rose. Kristen turned her head to the heiress and saw that she was wearing the ruby dress she tried to jump off the ship in.

"Emma better be careful if she's planning something. She might get in trouble with the whole Rose hanging off the back of the ship deal." Kristen whispered to Bri only to hear Bri choke as she tried to eat caviar. Kristen looked at her own plate and pushed it away. The next course didn't look too bad; it was some kind of bird. The two began eating it when they heard Ashley choking on it. Bri looked at Courtney who didn't seem to be paying attention at Ashley, but rather Rose, who had just gotten up from her table and was asking to leave. As if it was instinct, Bri looked over to Emma, who was mouthing words to Chelsea and Courtney.

"Emma's leaving." Bri mentioned to Kristen and then the two watched as Emma quickly stood up and walked out of the room, dragging Matt behind her. "And it looks like she has company. I wonder why he's going with her."

"An even bigger question is why he is following them." Kristen said pointing her fork at TJ. The blonde boy had just finished telling John something before he too got up and followed the two teenagers. Bri simply shrugged.

"It's their business. I say let them get into trouble, Emma has a way of talking her way out of things." She said while taking another mouthful of whatever the bird was. IT was quickly finished when the dessert was brought out. Kristen sighed happily at the sight of chocolate cake. She had taken two bites when she noticed that Courtney was bouncing up and down in her chair while John whispered something to her. Whatever it was seemed to get her mad. The blonde girl was about to take a bite when Ashley started yelling, "ALL RIGHT NOW IT'S A PARTY SINCE WE GOT SCOTCH!" The two watched as Courtney choked on her cake and finally put the whole thing in her purse.

"Is she allowed to do that?" Bri asked, tilting her head.

"My question would be is she allowed to do that." Kristen stated after Courtney had said good-night but then poured scotch on John's head. The two carried Ashley out of the room. "Guess their allowed to do both." She smiled.

"Whatever, let's just enjoy our dessert now." Bri said as she began to eat. Kristen nodded quickly and the two finished up their meal in complete silence.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Ok well there is chapter 8. Once again, thank you to all who reviewed. I would like to get twenty reviews by the time I post chapter nine, which will be about Emma, Chelsea, and the boys. If you review I will give you pop-tarts and a chocolate milkshake. I hoped you all liked this chapter. Please review. Aragato.
