Chapter 5
Kono practically barged her way through the crowd as she made her way to the table to find Steve, it seemed as though everyone was slowing her down as she kept bumping into a few people and she could have sworn the bar had gotten busier. Danny had seen the whole exchange between Steve and Kono next to bar but noticed Steve pulled out his phone and the something else catch Kono's eye and left Steve standing there alone. Danny frowned at what had taken place and was about to ask Steve what was going on until he seen Kono rushing over to the table her eyes fixed on Steve the whole time. Steve just went to lift his beer when Kono suddenly grabbed his arm and practically dragged him towards the backstage area; the others looked on wondering what the heck was going on and decided to keep a close eye on the entrance at the side to which Kono had dragged Steve down.
"What the hell Kono" Steve asks in a serious but concerned tone; she had never dragged him away like that before. Kono paced back and forth while rubbing her forehead before stopping and looking at Steve;
"The weird looking guy at the bar he's HPD and I overheard his phone call" she said while looking around making sure no-one could hear. Steve was a little confused so if the guy was HPD that's ok because the Governor must have some back up in with them. "I only hear his side of course but he said something about a certain group saying how they don't suspect anything and there with three guys but they won't be a problem and he also mention their performance and they're onto a winner" Kono all but rushed out and looked at Steve with pleading eyes. Steve frowned trying to understand what she had just said and he didn't like the feeling he got at all;
"Ok listen I'm going to look into it ok and you have nothing to worry about. Now go and get ready for the next song with Lori and Malia as you're up next." Steve said lifting her chin with his finger and looking straight into her eyes, Kono so the honesty there and nodded before turning to meet up with the girls but she stopped when Steve called her name, turning around she was meet with a dimpled face;
"I've got your back" and Kono didn't miss the double meaning and she felt the butterflies in her stomach. She gave him her best smile before once again heading off to meet Lori and Malia. Once Kono was out of sight Steve made his way back to the table and was met with questioning looks from Danny and Chin;
"Chin the guy at the bar" Steve pointed him out "See if you can get a picture of him and run a background check, he's from HPD and Kono has a hunch about him" Steve said not wanting to give to much away as to what Kono actually said. Danny looked at the guy Steve had pointed out and gave out a laugh which he got a glare in return from Steve;
"That is not who we are looking for, he's someone from HPD alright but Grace is going to his daughter's party next week and I for one would not let Grace go if I thought he was dangerous" Danny said with his hands moving everywhere as he spoke, Steve wasn't convinced;
"Look Kono said something about the conversation he had on the phone and I promised I would look into it so please Chin just have a look, that's all I ask for Kono's sake" Steve knew Chin would do anything for his cousin as he nodded in agreement.
The girls were standing off to the side of the stage ready for their next song, as the announcer called out their name saying that they were singing "Tik Tok" by Keisha, the music started and they made their way onto the stage. The guys sat waiting for the girls to make their entrance and they weren't disappointed in the least, they had the whole bad girl image going with the ripped jeans, black high heeled boots, tight black tank tops, black leather mini jackets and gloves that left the fingers open. Steve thought Kono had never looked sexier in this moment.
Kono Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy
Grab my glasses, I'm out the door, I'm gonna hit this city
Before I leave brush my teeth with a bottle of jack
'Cause when I leave for the night I ain't coming back
Malia I'm talking pedicure on our toes, toes
Trying on all our clothes, clothes,
Boys blowing up our phones, phones
Lori Drop-topping, playing our favourite CDs
Pulling up to the parties
Trying to get a little bit tipsy
All Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
Steve once again was in complete shock he had never seen this side to Kono, sure he knew she was a bad ass but this, this just completely made him realise why he fell in love with her in the first place and no-one else could come close, not even Catherine.
Malia Ain't got a care in the world but got plenty of beer
Ain't got no money in my pocket but I'm already here
And now the dudes are lining up cause they hear we got swagger
But we kick them to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger
Kono I'm talking about everybody getting crunk, crunk
Boys trying to touch my junk, junk
Gonna smack him if he getting to drunk, drunk
Steve nearly choked on his beer when Kono sang her next part, she bent down just low enough for Steve to get a quick flash at her chest and threw him a wink just for extra which got the exact reaction Steve thought would happen as he pulled down his jeans slightly hoping no-one would notice "this is why I hate jeans" he thought to himself.
Lori Now, now, we go until they kick us out, out
Or the police shut us down, down
Police shut us down, down
Po-po shut us
All Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
Lori DJ, you build me up
You break me down
My heart it pounds
Yeah you got me
Malia With my hands up
You got me now
You got that sound
Yeah you got me
Kono DJ, you build me up
You break me down
You got that sound
Yeah you got me
All With my hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up
Kono Now, the party don't start til I walk in
All Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
Don't stop make it pop
DJ blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-oh
The girls finished as the place went wild and again the girls found themselves heading through to the third round. When Kono looked over in Steve's direction this time he was standing whistling, clapping and had a huge smile on his face which caused Kono to smile back. The girls made their way towards the table for a quick break as the board was held up for them to see that they were up first in the next round. Danny and Chin offered to go and get another round, once they were out of ear shot Danny spoke;
"Do you think this will work?" Danny asked Chin hoping he would have the answer. Chin just let out a breath before replying;
"I have no idea brah but all I know is that if it doesn't then we're sure as hell going to be getting our asses kicked by them both" Chin said chuckling slightly at the thought "And when a certain someone finds out about the text I won't be hanging around" he said while laughing at Danny groaning, he just slapped him on the back, grabbed the beers and made his way back to the table for hopefully an eventful night ahead.
Time seemed to be going all too fast as the girls found themselves once again behind the side of the stage waiting to go on. Kono still couldn't get over the thought that Steve had sang that song and she was sure it was directed at her and if his eyes gave anything away it was that she was sure he felt the same. A smile came across her lips just at the thought; she would have to think of something in return. She nearly jumped when Malia placed a hand on her shoulder;
"What's the smile for?" she asking smiling back with a twinkle in her eyes, as if she didn't already know.
"Oh nothing just thinking of someone that's all, best we better head out" Kono motioned to the announcer hoping to get away before this conversation could head somewhere. Malia just stood and shook her head chuckling. Again for the third time that night they heard the announcer call out their names and singing "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis. When the music started the girls made their way on stage and sat on the stools that had been placed out for them. The guys' mouths hung open at the sight of the girls, they were gorgeous with their tight mini black dresses and strappy black high heeled shoes and how they wished this place was on the beach for air.
Lori Closed off from love, I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain
Time starts to pass, before you know it your frozen
Malia But something happened for the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground, found something true
And everyone's looking round thinking I'm going crazy
Kono But I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
All Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Malia Trying hard not to hear but they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears; try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know what the goal is to keep me from falling
Kono But nothing's greater than the rush that comes from your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see you face
Yet everyone around me thinks that I'm going crazy
Maybe, maybe
Lori But I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
Kono You cut me open and I
All Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Lori And it's draining all of me
Oh, they find it hard to believe
Malia I'll be wearing these scares for everyone to see
Kono I don't care what they say I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away but they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
All Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding, I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
Kono You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
The song finished and everyone was stunned, the cheers weren't as loud as before but just as strong, the girls stood holding hands waiting to see if they have made it through to the final round so they could finally finish this case but if they were being honest with themselves they were loving every minute of it. The girls screamed when they found out they had made it through but Kono's smile was quickly wiped off her face when she looked across and spotted Steve and a blonde talking, well more like flirting. She felt her heart rate quicken when Steve caught her eye and quickly made his way towards the stage, as she came down she came face to face with him;
"I'm just….just going to see someone" she quickly mumbled out not daring to look him in the eye. She had waited too long to take the chance on someone that she loved so much, she knew what she had to do and hopefully he'll get the message.
And there is chapter 4 I hope you enjoy. Was Steve really chatting someone up and what were Danny & Chin talking about? What does Kono do to try and reveal her feelings? Also how will the case turn out? Find out in chapter 5 which will be up soon.
