StormiXbaby: Well here it is.
Pepperfan1: Oh, thank you for helping with this chapter!
Ihatekoledude: She isn't that bad.
RheaThePsychoticNinja: This is the first time I've controlled myself, but you guys are tempting me. I shall not give in to temptation! NEVA!... Please excuse my craziness... Another story, I'll do something close.
DragonWinglet: You mean like Herald and Kole hooking up? I don't know... A different twist.
It's mid-evening and everyone is off doing their own things.
Kole walked over to Jericho's door and knocked.
Jericho opened it, smiling.
"Hi Jericho! I was, um, wondering if you wanted to go somewhere and hang out?"
Jericho nodded.
"Did you ask Herald?"
Kole shifted from her right foot to her left.
"I don't think he would wanna go to a carnival... Anyway you did lift the restraining order, right?"
Jericho gave her thumbs up before signing,
"You aren't as crazy as you used to be."
Kole took that as a compliment.
She grinned.
Jericho looked serious.
"But go ask if Herald wants to go."
Kole sighed and stomped to the next room.
She looked back and saw that Jericho was still watching.
She banged on Herald's door.
"Is there a fire?!" He asked, swinging the door open.
Then he spotted Kole.
"Oh... you." He put his hands on his hips. "What do you want?"
Kole looked at Jericho, who was still watching.
"Do you want to go to the carnival with me and Jericho?"
"Jericho and I." He corrected. "Um, I have something important to work on."
He looked upset.
Kole shrugged. "That's super with me."
He shut his door.
Kole skipped back over to Jericho and grabbed his hand.
"He said he's busy."
Jericho nodded, guessing that he was working on his song.
Kole hopped around, still hold Jericho's hand.
"Go throw on some casual's and meet me at the front door."
Jericho and Kole were sitting in a bus-like vehicle.
It was rounder than most Earth vehicles, but still took them where they needed to go.
Jericho had his hands in his jeans pockets.
Kole looked out the window.
"I can't believe I've been here for almost three months. It's so different from Earth."
Jericho nodded and pulled his hands out his pocket.
"I'm used to blue skies and occasional rainbows. Here the sky always looks like the sun is setting... But it's a nice place. So lively and upbeat."
Kole raised a finger and got up to help and elderly man press the stop button over his head.
He squinted at Kole. "Thank you, sir. I couldn't find it."
Kole's jaw dropped. "I'm a girl."
The old man cupped his ear.
"I didn't catch that, young man."
Kole patted his shoulder and sat in her seat.
She looked around at the people who were snickering to herself.
Kole rolled her eyes and turned to Jericho, who was smirking.
"Don't say anything, young lady."
He punched her arm playfully.
Kole giggled.
People were glancing at them.
Jericho poked her cheek.
Kole laughed. "You want to go there?"
Jericho nodded and looked fierce.
Kole poked his stomach.
They had an all out poke war.
Kole put her hands up in surrender after seeing something out the window.
"This is our stop."
The bus halted.
Jericho jumped up and pulled her up.
"Someone's anxious." Kole muttered after being dragged out through the crowded bus and onto the sidewalk.
Jericho and her ran towards the fair up ahead.
"Slow down!" Kole shouted after being knock into the armpit of a large male.
Jericho slowed a bit.
They walked to the express ticket gate.
When they reached the front of the line, a boy asked for her name while checking a list.
Kole smiled at the oily teen at the gate.
"Kole."
He coughed, blushed, and opened the gate.
Kole winked and pulled Jericho in with her.
Jericho dragged her over to the nearest bench.
She looked at him, muffling giggles.
Jericho smirked.
"You're not right."
Kole finally burst out in laughter.
"He was cute."
Jericho rolled his eyes.
"He wasn't cute."
Kole stood up.
"Well you and I have different tastes... Let's go through the metal detectors and head to the fun!"
2 hours later
The sounds of family fun and 'With A Little Help From My Friends' playing in the background.
Kole and Jericho were skipping with their arms hooked, trying to be ridiculous.
"Jericho! We've been on most rides. Let's get some snacks and go to the boardwalk."
Jericho thought it over.
It was getting dark and is clear they're going home soon.
He nodded and turned them to skip towards the soda cart.
"I want a slushy!" Kole squealed.
They had to move out the way of rushing people.
Jericho watched as Kole ordered them drink, knowing what he wanted.
She's actually a nice girl. Just has a few quirks.
Jericho just doesn't get why Herald and her dislike each other so much.
They're both good people and awesome friends to him, but hate each other with a passion.
Jericho pulled out his phone.
J: I really want to know why Herald and Kole can't stand each other. Give me some tips in about an hour.
Jericho was about to put his phone away, when it buzzed.
555-0909: So why text me now?
J: IDK... So I know you know that I know something is a total no-no.
555-0909: You're a nut.
J: LOL. Txt u l8er.
555-0909: You? Using text speak? What has this world come too?! LOL.
Jericho shook his head and put his phone away.
Kole held out his soda.
"Here ya go."
Jericho smiled and took it.
They walked in to see Herald sprawled out on the couch.
Jericho threw a teddy bear at him, which he caught mid-air.
"You gotta be quicker, bro."
He sat up and looked at the pair.
"About time you two came home."
Kole smirked.
"We had fun."
Jericho nodded.
"I'm beat. Goodnight guys."
He handed Kole the 2nd teddy bear he held.
She waved around.
"I'm calling it Snufflekins."
Jericho laughed as he walked out.
Herald stared Kole down.
She turned to him.
"Want something?"
He raised a finger and pointed to the empty spot next to him.
She shrugged and walked over.
Herald continued to glare at her.
Kole sighed. "Are you angry that Jericho and I had fun? 'Cause if you are, I-"
"Shut up."
He stood up and stood in front of her.
"Stop trying to become Jericho's best friend. I am."
Kole narrowed her eyes.
"You're being immature. Sure, I'll try to become his best friend and I will become his best friend, but you can always find someone else to love."
Herald snapped.
"If you know what I've been through, those words would have never exited your mouth. Friends like him don't come along often. He's my first friend in fact. SO BACK OFF!" He walked away.
Kole blinked.
