Coincidence: Where to
Coincidence: Where to?
A/N: Um… sorry for not updating in… more than 3 years now? I was having a) major writers block and b) major persona-writing-style crisis (which you may or may not see in this chapter) c) a tonne load of course work and whatnots… but hopefully, I'll be writing more regularly now as I just quit my summer internship. Omg… I can't believe it, the last time I updated, I was still in year 11…. And to think I'm a university student now, time really does fly, even when you're not having fun… anyway! One with the chapter!! I hope you'll enjoy this )
Rei's POV
I sat there stiffly; frozen from the initial shock; my mouth opening and shutting like I was some pretty goldfish.
OH. MY. GOD.
The limo looked even bigger on the inside, as if a whole family of 20 could fit in it and will still be able to throw a party.
Ok, so maybe that's a bit exaggerated, but it isn't far away from the truth.
The space between Kai and I could simply fit another 5 people loosely in-between, there's what appears to be a mini movie screen in front of us, AND a projector hanging above our heads, not to mention a semi-mini stereo system (amplifier, back sets, front sets and all) I'm beginning to wonder whether or not they were actually planning to create a home theatre instead of a vehicle. There's also a fridge the size of a pull-out-drawer under the screen.
Talking about the fridge, I don't think I've eaten anything for the past 24 hours, if my memory hasn't got haywire, the last time I ate was before I started to go to the Check Lap Kok airport (1), and since I used to live all the way in Hong Kong Island (2), (it takes an average of one hour just to get to the airport, that is IF there wasn't any traffic going on)I was supposed to wake up 3 hours before hand, but the alarm clock just HAD to choose today to break down, resulting in me, waking up late, rushing out the door , going back because I nearly forgot my passport, going back out, getting stuck in the traffic…. You get the point.
OK, he must think that I'm really weird now; my mouth is still hanging open…. Mouth, shut it. Great, now my jaw has gone numb and it's not listening to me. Maybe if I just slowly move my hand to my face and shut my stupid mouth, it will be less obvious…. There, it's shut.
Kai's POV
Heh, I can even feel myself smirking. Rei is just so adorable when he's in shock. It's not an image you get to see all that often. Images…… of Rei licking ice cream, of Rei blading, of Rei in swimming trunks….of Rei in bed sleeping, shirt halfway undone and breathing rhythmically….
Those were only a few of which you would never see unless you stay up for more than 20 hours a day, which is exactly what I do. All thanks to that "grandfather" of mine… all those years of training and getting chips inserted into my body finally paid off.
I can't wait to see his face when we reach the "school dorm"… being the CEO of a well know airline, as well as a…"well known author" (3) does have its advantages. It makes life easier, especially when it comes to making arrangements with school and other organizations. You wouldn't believe how easy it is to bribe those people… with MONEY, what else were you thinking about? (A/N: I KNOW it sounds like narrator's POV…. Deal with it, cuz I like it this way P and the OOCness? I warned you about that already…)
I think that world loves me, the traffic ahead is just another excuse for me to be with Rei alone for more time. Mmm he seemed to have found a way to shut his mouth, pity, it was giving quite a bit of nice images…as to what images, I'll leave that to your own imagination.
We should be there at approximately…now.
Normal POV
And so, our poor little Rei started to have a conversation with himself in his head for what seems like the millionth time in the past 12 hours: -I'm staring again….IT'S NOT MY FAULT!! This is NOT a dorm…definitely NOT a DORM. IT A FRIGGIN MANSION!!-
After the initial shock wore off, Rei finally decided to say something,"Kai… this isn't…the dormitories…is it…?"
"No, it isn't"
"Um, care to elaborate?"
"The headmaster contacted me just a few days ago and told me that the dormitories are actually full, so I offered to stay in my own place and he asked me if it was possible to take in another student, and I agreed, since my place is kinda big, and I figured it'd be a nice change to have someone other than the servants and butler around…." Kai paused for a few seconds to breathe.
"Plus, even if they turned out to be someone annoying, I can always just avoid them cuz, as I've said, my place is big."-All of which is just a big ass lie, but you don't have to know that-
"But I never even hear about this, you can't just… take me in without my permission? I never agreed to live here!"
Kai just raised his eyebrows at Rei.
"Ok, I know it sounded weird, so stop looking at me like that now would you."
"But are you saying you'd rather live in a crappy university dorm than in a mansion?"
"No, but… this is kind of… different from what I expected to happen."
"You don't really have a choice, but it's ok if you'd rather live in cheap motels, having to pay for yourself in the process, and be far away from the school without an easy way of getting there. Because as you may or may not have realized, I'll be going to school everyday in my limo, and to be honest, I'd much rather ride to school every morning with someone to talk to, meaning, you'll get a free ride to school everyday. This is assuming that, of course, if you aren't against the idea of getting a nice, FREE ride every morning."
Silence fell between the two of them as Rei took his time to process everything Kai had just said, and the situation at hand.
"Kai…" Rei started,
"are you really so lonely that you have to half force half bribe your ex-teammate/ friend to live with you in your mansion and ride with you to school every morning."
Kai started at Rei for a bit –ok, not the kind of reaction I was hoping for, but no matter…-
"No, I'm simply offering you a better alternative to living in a) a crappy university dorm b) in a crappy motel and c) on the streets. Did I mention we have a chef that cooks for me every meal?"
Rei just stared right back at Kai. (A/N: Is it just me, or is Kai becoming even more ooc than before, cuz I think he starting to act a bit desprate..rofl)
Silence fell once again. Oh the awkwardness of it all. Kai decided to take the silence as a good sign, (A/N: and a lot more optimistic than he's supposed to be…omg, he's becoming a Takao..noo!!) and said,
"So, would you like me to give you a tour around the place?"
UKL: Ok, so there was chapter number 3, just wanted to end it before it goes any weirder. Not sure if I like it or not, because its definitely not turning out as I thought it would…. And I can't tell whether or not if that's a good thing at the moment, but I'll just have to see where my inspiration takes me I guess.
Leave a review if you have the time, I thank those who do before hand, as for those who don't, I thank you for reading any way. It still amazes me that people read the that I write… it really is really bad compared to all those great ffs out there.
Till the next chapter then!
