Chapter 16:

KALEN POV:

"Kalen?" I was snapped out of my horror by James' voice. "How do you like your house?"

"I- it's… it's nice." I said.

"OH GOOD! Now I'm going to introduce you to the last few citizens of our fair town, that is unless you'd rather sleep?"

"No I'm fine. Lead the way."

I followed him out of the small house and onto the street. "My house is right there!" He said motioning to the dog house next door to my own. "All you have left to meet is Kendal and Carlos."

"Okay." I followed down the street to a storefront across the street from Logan's doctor's office. "Kendal's the grocer in town. This is his store." James said leading me in. "Kendal you in here!?"

"IN THE BACK!" A voice said.

"Come up front! There's someone here for you to meet!"

Someone came up to the front of the store. He had blond hair and cat ears sticking out from under his hair. "You look like Katie." I said.

"Katie? You met my sister! You're the one who just moved in right?" He asked. "I'm Kendal."

"Kalen." I said shaking his hands.

"Well if you guys need anything let me know. I've got to take care of some stocking in the back!" He ran back to the back room and the door behind me opened. I turned around and froze at what I saw. A hockey helmet and clothes were floating in mid air. "Wha- huh- how?" I looked at James for an explanation.

"Hi Carlos!" He said. "Carlos has a rare condition. It makes him turn invisible whenever he's awake."

"Whoa cool." I said.

"Hi. You must be Kalen." A voice said. A sleeve shifted into my direction and I assumed he wanted to shake my hand. I reached out to where I assumed his hand would be and found something solid. Shaking it I smiled at him. "I'm Carlos."

"Kalen." I said smiling.

"Well I'm just here to pick up some things then I've got to get home. Helmet and I are going to watch Opra."

"O- Okay?" I said as the clothing moved around the store.

"OH! I almost forgot I have a meeting with The town mom! I'll be back later!" James yelled.

Hey Kalen.

I shook my head as the voice popped up. "Hm… while I'm here I better pick up some food…" I said to myself. I reached into my back pocket of my jeans. I don't know how but I knew a wallet would be there. When I opened it I found a hundred dollars and a school ID.

"MY NAME!" I yelled.

"What?" Kendal asked looking around the door.

"My name! IT has my name on it! It's really Kalen! AND MY LAST NAME IS DIMOND! I'm fifteen! I go to school? Huh, didn't see that one coming…"

"What's going on?" Carlos asked.

"I had amnesia. I mean I still do. BUT THIS ANSWERS QUESTIONS!" I said. "Oh! Kendal I'd like to buy this please." I put my groceries on the counter and he scanned them for me before letting me go and talking to Carlos.

I ran out the door and right into someone. "Ow…" I mumbled sitting up strait. "That hurt."

"Sorry. Are you alright?"

I looked up and blushed. It was Christopher. "I- I'm fine. What's up?"

"Not much. Need a hand?" I took his hand and let him help me up.

"Uh thanks." I said. "Um… would you want to… come over?"

"Sure. Here I'll carry your bag."

I felt myself turn red as his hand brushed over mine. "I can carry it."

"No really I've got it." He said. "So what's up? How's the place?"

"It's fine." I said. "And uh… close by to you guys so I could stop by…"

He smirked at the comment. "Well if you want."

We walked into my house and I started to put away the groceries. "So do you want to do something?" I asked him.

"Sure." He said.

"Like what?" I asked.

"Well everyone's been waiting for you to get up."

"What?" I shook my head. He was talking like the voices.

"I'm waiting for you to wake up."

"Christopher what are you talking about?"

He leaned over me and I blushed. "Come back to us soon."

CHRISOPHER POV:

The others had gone to get food. I was alone with Kalen for the first time in two days so I had started talking to her. "I'm waiting for you to wake up." I said squeezing her hand. She was one of my best friends, and I'd known for about a year that I had a crush on her. And now she was in a hospital. "Come back to us soon." I mumbled. I gave her a quick kiss on her forehead and saw her blush. "Hm… maybe you can hear us. If you can you better wake up."

Hi guys! Kalen's nightmare may be drawing to a close soon. But as a quick explanation She never met Carlos but heard about him so he's an invisible man. Then you'll all have to guess what kind of cat Kendal is.

Reviews make me happy. Remember to vote for the poll. I'll probably close it in about a week but at the moment I have a draw. I need a winner and runner up!
