Chapter 8- Alexis Rhodes and Jaden Yuki
1 month and 1 week later...
"Cassidy Rhodes! Your ride is here!"
"Oh!" Katherine gasped, "Bye girls!" Kathy hugged them all.
"Remember Kathy! Find out about their first date and why they divorced!" Cassidy urged.
"You too!" Katherine hugged her.
"CASSIDY RHODES PLEASE REPORT YOUR RIDE, NOW!"
"BE PATIENT!" the real Cassidy yelled.
The other girls giggled.
"Bye! All of you!" Katherine hugged them again and ran off.
"Good luck!" they all yelled after her.
When Katherine got up front she saw a limo, "Hey Dan!"
"Hello Ms. Cassidy," he smiled opening the door, "Please, step inside."
Katherine smiled, "Thank you."
She went inside and they headed off.
-Hours later...
Katherine walked into the house and looked around. The walls were white, and the first thing you saw when you walked in was a flight of stairs. To her right was a doorless walkway that led into the living room. Grampa Fetch was in an armchair watching telivision while smoking pipe.
He looked up, "Oi! Your home!" he stood up and hugged her, "How was it, now?"
"Great! I met new people." Katherine hugged back.
"What happened to yer hair?" he raised an eyebrow.
"Cut it!" she smiled, "Where's mom?"
"Yer mother's upstairs." he informed, "Yer grandmother's not gonna like that hair of yours."
"Ok! Good seeing you!" she chuckled and walked out.
She seems... different, Grampa thought.
Katherine was half way through the staircase when she saw a lady walking down, she looked down and smiled.
"How are you,sweetie?" she asked, "Welcome home!" the lady held out her arms.
"Mom!" Katherine gasped running up to her and hugging her tightly.
"Cassidy! You got stronger! And taller! What have you done with your hair?" Alexis examined her.
"I cut it." Kathy answered.
"Your grandmother's not gonna like that." Alexis stated.
"And so I heard." Kathy replied.
"Oh! You're home!" Katherine's grandmother was walking down the stairs, "My golly! What have you done with your beautiful long hair?!"
"Oh, I cut it!" Katherine answered.
"I can see that!" her grandmother stroked her short hair, "Why did you?"
"Umm... I got hot?" she shrugged.
Hailey hugged her and kissed her forehead, "Now you look like-"
"Look like who?" though Katherine knew who she 'looked' like.
"Nevermind." Hailey walked away.
"I'm going to the store, what color dress would you like?" Alexis asked.
"Red." Katherine smiled.
"Just like your fa-" Katherine raised an eyebrow.
"Fa- what?"
"Nevermind, now go unpack!"
-With the real Cassidy.
Cassidy got off the plane and looked around, where is he?
"Hey sweetheart! Over here!" a man yelled.
"Daddy?!" Cassidy screeched running toward him and hugging him.
He picked her up, "You got taller."
"Put me down!" Cassidy wiggled.
"Nope." he smirked.
"Dad!"
"Fine. You win!" he put her down, "Jesse's at the house, Eric and Julie are already there."
"How'd they get there first?!" Cassidy gasped, wow acting like Kathy is easy! All I have to do is act stubborn!
"Instant transmission?" he guessed.
Cassidy giggle, "Ya right! Now, let's go!" she pulled on his arm.
"Gosh! You're violent today!"
"Today?"
"Nah, always!" he smiled, "Now common'!"
They walked over to Jaden's car, how am I going to tell her? Jaden asked himself. After five minutes on the road Jaden spoke up.
"Why are you staring at me so much, Kath?"
"I'm just glad that I got to see you again."
"Again? Why wouldn't you see me again?" he raised an eyebrow.
"Wait, what?" Cassidy asked, who was obviously just out of it.
"Hmm? Nevermind," he looked ahead, "We're here."
"Okay" she opened the car door, got out, shut it and ran towards the house. In the front yard was a woman watering some plants. The woman looked up and smiled radiantly. Jaden already wandered off somewhere.
"Welcome back, Kathy!" she welcomed, "You've grown!"
"Good to see you again Roxana!" Cassidy hugged her. She hugged back, and then barking filled the yard.
Prince, their dog ran over to Cassidy, smelt her and started to bark.
"Prince!" Roxana gasped, "Shame on you! Stop, that's Katherine!"
The dog kept barking.
"Oh, don't worry Roxy! I probably just still smell like camp," Cassidy assured, though not believing that herself, "I'm going to go unpack."
"Ok, I'll bring dinner up soon," Roxy started, "Jesse and the kids already left!"
"Oh, okay!" Cassidy walked into the house and to her room.
I wonder how Katherine's doing with mom, Cassidy thought, I hope nothing goes wrong.
Ok! The next chapter's going to be called 'Another Woman?' just a heads up, and here's a couple of hints on who this 'Other Woman' is: "But she's young enough to be my sister!" and "But why?! Uncle Jesse said you usually just ignored the fact that she liked you in duel academy!" that's enough. You probably already know who it is... it's obvious. Any way see you next time!
