Last time-There was a knock on his cabin door, when he opened it he found Mai standing there with a blanket. They were meant to sit and watch the fireworks together but with Jess leaving he had completely forgotten.
"I'll just get my jacket." Tala went to his section of the wardrobe and pulled out his brown leather bomber jacket. While Tala was doing this Mai looked to where Kai was laying on his bunk.
"Kai, do you want to come with us?" Mai was tourn, she was best friends with Jess but Kai was her cousin, she didn't know who she should be loyal to. She had discussed this dilemma with Tala earlier but her was in the same boat. The only difference was Tala knew where his priorities lie.
Chapter 14
Mai didn't like the way Jess leaving had affected the guys. She could understand they were upset but that didn't explain the recklessness. In the two weeks since Jess had left Kai and Tala had been taking their frustrations out on the school and its staff. The current score was something like Kai & Tala 27- Staff 0. Yeah is was a pretty sad effort on the staffs part and considering they had blackmailed the principal it didn't seem like it was ever going to end. Oh well, today was Friday so the staff will get a break for a few days. Mai let out a defeated sigh as the Black Eyed Peas new song My Humps came blasting out over the loud speakers. They were at it again.
What you gon' do with all that junk?
All that junk inside your trunk?
I'ma get, get, get, get, you drunk,

Mai swayed her head to the music that was blasting out of the speakers whilst she worked. Most of the girls were singing along and a few had gotten out of their seats to dance.

So Real
By the time the song was finished all the student were up dancing, boys included and the teachers had given up trying to control the uncontrollable. Instead they say behind their desks and hoped it would be over soon.
Tala sat at the Kitchen table sipping his coffee and reading the letter he had received that morning in the mail from Jess.
Hey Sweats,
How have you been? I haven't been doing much
though Enrique and I have been having a lot of
fun, the other day we went to one of the beaches
it was great. Just sitting there with everyone else,
just being normal, one of the crowd. I know that I
am just an ordinary person but being in a different
place where no one knows my problems or what
has happened to me makes a nice change. Whenever
I'm at home or around most of the guys I get this
feeling like pity. I hate it, I don't know why but it
makes me feel really low. Anyway that is enough
about my problems. I am having a good time over
here and I an still passing my school work with
flying colours so you don't have to worry. I'll be
coming home soon but I'm not sure when, before
the end of school I suspect. Couldn't miss the
formal now could I? Or the chance to go shopping
with Mai and spend a heap of money! How is Mai?
I'll have to write or call her. I am hating myself for
asking this but how is Kai? It is funny, sometime
I feel really bad for treating him the way I did,
but then I think of how he lied to me and I get
angry. I could have handled the fact that he slept
with Hillary but he told me that he didn't and
that he had never had anything to do with her
or ever wanted to.
Oh and by the way, happy birthday!
Lots and Lots of love,
Jess

Tala folded the letter before butting it back into the envelope in which it came. So she had remembered that it was his birthday. But then again, how could she ever forget, this was Jess after all. He finished his coffee before going to the sink to wash his mug. Kai, Mai and a heap of his other friends were coming over later for party, which Mai had insisted on throwing for him. He didn't really feel like a party right now but hopefully it would get his mind off his problems for a while. Tala was just setting his mug down on the drainer when the doorbell rang. Jess's puppy ran to the door and immediately started to scratch at the bottom of the door begging to get to the person on the other side.
When Tala finally made it to the door he was hesitant to open it. He didn't know why, just something in his gut told him it might be bad.
He took a deep breath before reaching out to open the door. Stepping back to survey the person before him. He felt a warm feeling spread across him as Jess smiled up at him holding a large box.
"Happy birthday." Jess smiled.
Tala didn't move. Staring straight at Jess as he felt a huge stupid grin spread across his face. Jess stood watching him, a slight feeling of uneasiness forming in the pit of her stomach. She was about to take a step back but at that moment Tala pulled her into a bear hug. The feeling of uneasiness slipped away as she tried to hug him back and not drop his present at the same time. After a moment Tala took a step back still smiling like an idiot.
"Your back?" he asked, Jess didn't miss the silent 'for good' that Tala put onto the end of the sentence.
"I couldn't miss your birthday now could I?"
"No, I don't suppose you could."
Jess was back.
Kai thought it was hard being around Jess, well it was but now she was gone and never going to speak to him again it was even harder. Kai rubbed his hands over his eyes. On the computer screen before him was a picture of him and Jess on her birthday. He let out a sigh as he took off his shirt and headed to the bathroom. He had been taking a lot of could showers lately.
Mai sighed as she heard the shower running again. Poor Kai! She returned to reading her book but was interrupted when her cell phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello."
"Hey, what's up?" Mai asked once she distinguished the person on the other end of the phone to be Tala.
"Jess is back." Tala sounded so happy, she could imagine the stupid grin on his face.
"What?" Mai couldn't believe it, she thought Jess wasn't coming back. Atleast not of a while.
"She came back for my birthday. Now the reason I rang. We need to do something about Jess and Kai."
"Tell me about it, Kai is currently having his fourth cold shower today and it's only eleven thirty." She could hear Tala chuckling on the other end.
"Well what can we do?" Tala asked once he got his laughter under control.
"I think we should just wait and see how your birthday party turns out. She going isn't she?"
"Of course, she wouldn't miss it for the world. Though I haven't told her about it yet."
"Good, don't. I wont tell Kai she is back, we'll just wait and see how things go."
"Sounds good. When are you coming over?"
"Around seven."
"I'll see you then."
"Yep, Happy birthday Hun."
"Bye."
They disconnected and Mai went back to reading her book though she found it hard to concentrate. So many different scenarios were running through her head.
"Tala I'm going out. See you later." Jess called as she left the house and made her way to her car.
"Whatever."
"Jess got into the front seat ready to go. She had spent all morning working her self up for this and now it was time.
Kai stepped out of the shower again. He had been in there for half an hour; if he kept it up he would get sick. Ah lets face it you are sick. Love sick. He had never full grasped the meaning before but now he got it, boy did he get it. It was actually a sickness. Kai hadn't eaten in days. Whenever he thought about food he was starving but then when it came around to eating he lost his apatite. He couldn't sleep, or at least very little and his body finically hurt. Not just his heart but his whole body.
After getting dressed Kai wondered down into the kitchen. Today he would eat something; today would be a good day. He was starving. Kai put two slices of bread in the toaster and waited for them to cook. It smelled great. He made a cup of coffee and was sitting down looking at the toast when it happened, just like it always did. It sneaks up on him. Kai felt his throat contract as he let the usual waves of nauseous wash over him. Maybe not today.
The door be rang just as he was putting his plate away.
"I'll get it." Kai yelled up the stairs to Mai.
Kai opened the door. Standing before him was Jess looking nervous and furtive. (Bet you all knew it was going to be Jess.)
Kai looked at Jess. Then as if not believing his eyes he blinked several times. After the figure didn't go away he reached out to touch her.
Jess watched Kai with amusement and chronic relief, he hadn't slammed the door in her face, he hadn't stormed of or threatened to call the police. She watched as he blinked then stretched out a hand to touch her as if he wasn't sure she was real.
As his hand came towards her Jess intercepted it with her own and laced their fingers together. He jumped, so she was real.
"Kai?" there was a hint of shyness in her voice, which Kai didn't miss.
Both their senses were on over drive as they stared into each others eyes, neither daring to blink. They both took a step forward. Now they were only inches apart. Familiar scents filled their nostrils and till neither blinked.
"Jess?" Kai breathed, as he looked deeper into her eyes trying to find meaning in their depths.
"Hmm?"
"Can I kiss you?" …
Sorry it was so short but I kind of like the ending of this chappi, plenty of suspense. Hope you all enjoyed it! The next chappi should be up pretty soon. Please review.
The perfect oasis
