Chapter 5

Disclaimer: Once again I don't own SSX 3 or anything it's company owns. Now, on to the story!

"Blah, blah, blah." Talking

Blah, blah, blah. Thinking

Blah, blah, blah. Talking in Japanese

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Griff-buzo! CLOSE THE DOOR!"

"Kaori! Sorry!" The both yelled at once. Griff shut the door with a loud slam. It took them 3 sec. to figure out what just happed before they both thought, WTF!

Griff didn't have much time to recover before he heard the commanding voice of Elise yelling, "The the Hell was that?"

Griff looked round the room franticly before he spotted the T.V. remote on a night stand.Now there's a good part and a bad part. the good part was that Griff got the remote just as Elise rammed into the room. What was the bad part you ask? He didn't exactly turn on the T.V. like he intened.

"Griff, what happened! I heard a girl scream!"

"Oh, um, that , it was the...T.V.!" Griff exclaimed pointing at the blank box.

Elise cocked one of her slender eyebrows before saying, "But its not even on." Griff looked disorieneted.

"Yeah, because I turned it off!" He said a little to loudly. Elise walked up really close to Griff, their nose's barely touching, and glared at him.

"I don't believe you. But I'll let it slide this time." She then turned around sharply, causing her ponytail to flip Griff in the face, and briskly walked towards the door. But before she got out the room, Elise looked back at Griff and smiled. "By the way, nice boxers."

And with that said, Elise left the room laughing.

If you were there, you would've seen a question mark pop up over Griff's head.

He looked down to see that his baggyblue jeans had fallen and nowwere warpped around his ankles. Thus exposing his SpongeBob SquarePants boxers.

"Gaauhh!" Griff blushed red again and hurriedly pulled his pants up. Once done, he slowly turned to the bathroom door. Griff gulped and proceded to the door, like a small kid going up to a mean neighbors house.

It was scary and forbidden.

"This is a dream, it has to be..." Griff muttered, grasping the door knob. But at the same time, Griff knew it wasn't a dream. Actually a little voice inside his head said taht it was impossible. Breathing in and out, shakily, Griff quickly pushed open the door to see...that the bathroom was empty.

"Huh?" Griff stared in disbelieve. That girl was right here! Griff thought, walking out to where he thought Kaori had been.

Then came the beating of his teenage life.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kaori yelled, dropping from the ceiling Ninja style, with a tin pan in her hand. (A/N: You know, the ones the japanese use when they take baths.) She latched onto Griff's back, her legs wrapping around his torso, and began beating him rapidily on the head.

"Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow , OWW!" Griff screamed in agony. Even though Griff was screaming for his life, he hoped no one had heard him.

Unfortuntily for him, several people did.

Mainly Elise and Nate next door. They were unpacking for their extremely long stay when they heard the sreaming and painful cries.

"What the hell is that?" Nate asked while Elise continued unpacking.

"T.V." She answered, going over to their t.v. and turning it on to drown out the other noise.

"You sure Bombshell? It doesn't sound like a t.v. show." Nate started, a bit worried about Griff.

"Don't worry," Elise said calmly, walking up to her husband and wrapping her arms loosely around his neck. "Whatever Gromment has to hide, he'll tell us in time. And if his little secret bothers us, I'll personly see to it." Elise leaned up and gave Nate a 5 second smooch, which caused him to rest his arms on her waist.

She pulled back and gazed up into his eyes, "Kay?"

Nate just smiled and nodded his head.(A/N: It's amazing what you can do to your boyfriends/ husbands)

Now, back to Griff and the beating of his teenage life.

"Ow! Stop it!" Griff yelled fustrated. Right before the tin pan was about to hit him again, Griff grabbed it and jerked it out of Kaori's hands. He then threw the thing across the bathroom, with a clang.

"Hey!" Kaori whinned. Griff, taking this as an opportunity, grabbed Kaori's hands and held them tightly.

Kaori, mad that Griff took her weapon and hands away, used her teeth to grab a mouthful of curly blonde hair, and pull. Griff started to scream even louder after noticing a new found pain to his head.

"Aaaggggghh! That really hurts! He-Hey! You let go of me, and I let go of you Kay!?" Griff asked, trying to make a deal.

Kaori, guilty about attacking him, let go of his blonde curls and unwrapped her legs. Griff, getting the message, let go of her hands and started rubbing his head hurriedly. While he was going that, Kaori couldn't help herself and started giggling. Suddenly, she started laughing her head off.

Kaori hadn't had this much fun since the SSX. Finally, tears began to peak her eyes. Not because she was happy (A/N: Well, not really), no, her stomach started to hurt.

With his back towards Kaori (A/N: He still doesn't know who she really is) Griff heard her laughing. Ticked off, Griff turned to confront her.

"You know miss, that really-AHHHHHHH!" Griff fell to the marble, bathroom floor, clutching were his heart was. It was beating hard enough for him to have a heart attack. For there in front of him, dressed in a pink bikini with chibified panda's, and with a laughing smile, was Kaori.

She shook her head, causing her pigtails to sway, and looked at Griff. Blushing a little, Kaori greeted him properly.

"Konnichiwa, Griff-buzo. It's been a long time, huh?"

A/N: Sorry! Sorry, sorry, sorry, SORRY!!!! I didn't mean for it to take this long, promise. Hope you all still love me out there.whine
