CHAPTER 2 of Fayth
The auditorium. This was Kairi's favorite place in all the school, and it was a big school. She walked through the large oak doors, with a feeling that nothing could go wrong. Of course, something always goes wrong. If nothing went wrong, there would be no story. "Kairi!" came a familiar squeel from the balcony above. A girl, brown hair that flips out in excitement, green eyes, an orange dress, and a sense of hyper activity, throws her body over the edge of the rails and falls to the ground beside Kairi.
"Selphie! Don't, you'll get hurt!" Kairi shouts. "Too Late!" The cheery girl replies. Kairi shakes her head, laughing. "Do I look dead to you?!" Kairi smiles, knowing the obvious and sane answer, but, for fun, adds, "Ill prepare for the funeral, lets see….." Selphie giggles. "Hmm, yes, your outfit will be black….." The sound of someone clearing their throat above the girls gave Kairi shivers. She turns to see Mrs Webber staring down at them. Kairi waves, nervously, laughing. She then grabs Selphie by the arm and drags her down the concrete stairs leading to the stage. "Why does she do that?!" Kairi asks, annoyed by her teachers odd habits, as she sits in the balconys above the class, watching…. Just watching… "Its kinda creepy…" She adds
"I guess so she can see everything…" Selphie whispers… obviously…. Kairi realizes something "Hey?" Selphie looks at her. "Yeah?" Kairi continues, "Why were you up there?" Selphie laughs, "Hiding!" at this Kairi cant help but laugh a little. "From?" suddenly, the auditorium doors open again. Karu comes in. Kairi and Selphie duck into a row one away from he stage, where a giant screen sits. Kairi looks back, to see Karu, climbing another set of stairs to the balcony, where Webber was sitting. He shows his hall pass to her. Kairi, feeling proud, realizes that she got into class with out a pass. She giggles. Then she notices Selphie, gazing at Karu. Her eyes, literally glued…. "Oh….." Kairi breathed. "Selph, I think you should tell him…." Selphie hides her blushing face in her hands. "No No No No No No!!! I cant, I—" Kairi places her hand on Selphie's shoulder.
"Hey, I think it might help. I mean your always chasing older guys around the island, you say you want a boyfriend….here is your chance! Karu is such a sweet guy, he's great, and he is smart, and understanding…. He'd wanna know, you should tell him how you feel….." As she finishes, loud footsteps behind them are noticeable, as Karu takes his seat. He hadn't heard, but when Kairi looked back at him. Their eyes met, perfectly, it was weird. He held her in his gaze for a moment. Then looked away. Kairi decides to watch the movie. What had she missed?
CAT's, that's right, Karu said they were watching CAT's. Kairi began to listen as all the cats jumped happily across the stage. Then, Kairi felt a tap on her shoulder. She looked to her left, and there was Selphie, pulling her arm. "Hey…." She whispers.
Kairi look at her. "Yeah?" Selphie, looking totally confused, says, "I thought only cows had utters…?" Kairi's eyes widen as she places two and two together. She turns to the giant screen, and watches. The woman, playing RumpleTeaser had enormous boobs…As she dances, they flop around. 'Utters?' Kairi thinks, then Kairi laughs. Was Selphie kidding? She looks to her friend. There sits Selphie, eye opened wide, watching te actress move. The expressions on the girls face telling her that she was completely, and 'utterly' confused. Kairi laughs, not sure, of course, she felt bad for her friend, but it was pretty funny. Kairi hears laughter, she turns around to see Karu. He was laughing. He'd heard Selphie! Selphie, now blushing, drops her jaw in awe. "OH!" she shrieks. She giggles. "Kairi, those aren't utters! They're ---" Kairi covers Selphie's mouth with her hands. Karu and Kairi are still lost for words, yet, full of laughter.
The movie continued, all the way until 'Grizabella's' solo of Memory. 'Such a lovely song….' Kairi thought, she closes her eyes. But when she opens them again, a strange feeling hits her, and she knows she is no longer in Destiny High school auditorium anymore……
