Finally! It let me update!!! I know it's been a while, so I'll just get right to it.

Disclaimer:I own nothing in this story, except for the original characters and the storyline (of course).
Oh, and I don't own Cloud or Kadaj (though I wish I owned the latter...er, former...I mean...ugh. -facepalms-)

"I think we should just throw them both out."Lindsey stared at them thoughtfully.

"Well maybe."

"Maybe nothing. I can do whatever I please. Besides, we need to think of somewhere to put them. They can't stay here forever."

"Hmmm. I guess you're right. But we just can't out right destroy them!" Yeah right, I thought to myself. I would never be able to bring myself to do that...

"Yeah, yeah," said Lindsey sulkily.

At that moment Kadaj strolled in eating a bar of chocolate ice cream. "What are you two plotting?"

"The demise of the two unicorn knickknacks in Lindsey's living room. They were starting to creep us out," I said matter of factly. It was true, we hated those damn unicorns;they were just creepy.

Kadaj quickly stepped over to them. "Are these the unicorns in question?" I nodded. There was a flash and then the unicorns were no more. Lindsey burst out laughing. Kadaj looked absurdly pleased with himself.

"Kadaj!" I reprimanded.

"What?" he said, calmly sheathing his sword.

"You just broke the unicorns !!!," I scolded, pointing at the horribly broken knickknacks. "Lindsey, why are you laughing?! He just destroyed your mom's property!"

Lindsey shrugged and continued laughing. "S-so what? I wish I had had balls enough to do that! Hahaha. I...I only wish...mom could've been here...to see it happen!" Kadaj smiled widely. I rolled my eyes and groaned. Boy oh boy, was she gonna be in for it when her mom got home...

Cloud walked in. "What's so funny?" That only served to intensify the hilarity for Lindsey and she laughed all the harder.

The phone began to ring. "I..I got it," Lindsey said. She walked down the hall, still chuckling to herself.

It was silent for a few moments. "No, really, what was funny?" Cloud asked again. Kadaj chuckled while I just shook my head.

There was a clatter from the kitchen. Thinking it was yet another intruder, we all rushed into the kitchen to see what was happening.

We found Lindsey standing there stock still, the phone she'd been using on the floor, while her eyes wide with some unseen terror. "L-Lindsey?" I began. What the hell's going on now?!

Lindsey slowly turned her head to look at us. And even though her eyes were trained on us, her gaze was far away, focused on some distant event. "My-my parents..."

"What about them?," I asked urgently.

"They're almost home!"

My eyes widened. "Oh. Shit."

Cloud looked confused for a second. "Why does that matter?"

"Because if they catch you or Kadaj here for that matter THEY WILL KILL ME, RAISE ME FROM THE DEAD, TORTURE ME WITH FAMILY REUNIONS, AND THEN KILL ME AGAIN!" Lindsey yelled dramatically.

I nodded vehemently, trying my best not to laugh at her over-dramatic outburst.. "Oh," said Cloud.

"Now think, think. Where is a place where we can hide them so that our parents won't know, and so that we have easy access to give them food and needed supplies?" Lindsey said tapping her chin. I crossed my arms and thought for a moment.

"I've got it!" I exclaimed. "The tree house in the woods behind my house! My mom doesn't know about it since Dad built it, and it's not like they talk to each other since the divorce."

"Perfect!," she exclaimed. "Now....GET THEM OUT!!!!" I looked at her like she was nuts.

"How? I don't have my car here!!!"

"Take mine. I don't care. Just get out!" Lindsey said, practically shoving them out of the door and then throwing the keys after them. I barely managed to catch them; she threw them so hard and fast that my hand literally stung from where the keys had impacted. Damn her and having a pitcher's arm...

"Until we next meet, love," said Kadaj playfully, but it was too late. Lindsey had already slammed the door shut. I had to turn around to keep from laughing in his face, and Cloud looked as amused as I did.

As we sped away and off Lindsey's street, I saw Lindsey's parents' black SUV turning down the same road in the rear-view mirror. I sighed in relief. We had just missed them.

Speeding down the highway, (though I know I shouldn't have been;don't speed, people!), I looked in the rear view mirror to see Kadaj looking glumly out of the backseat window.

"What's wrong, Kadaj?"

"My only entertainment for the evening is gone..."

"Who...?, " I wondered aloud. Then it occurred to me. "Oh, you mean Lindsey?"

Kadaj nodded.

"I think we have a love struck puppy with us," Cloud said, trying his hardest not to laugh. Trust me, I could tell;I had the same expression on my face, I was sure.

"I so am not!," Kadaj retorted. I took one glance at Cloud, and it was too much;we both burst out laughing.

Kadaj just looked back and forth between us, looking slightly embarrassed (did I mention that his face was red?). He came back quick from that, I'll admit it, because then he retorted, "....well if I am, I'm not the only one."

Cloud and I both shut up abruptly, my thoughts immediately jumping to the conclusion that he was referring to us, more specifically, me. My face felt hot, and I didn't want to look in the mirror to see if my face was red. I stole a quick glance at Cloud, and I couldn't believe my eyes. He...--woah, I thought.

His face was just as red as mine.

Shaking my head and snapping from my thoughts, I cleared my throat. "Anyways...." I said cheerfully, and she changed the subject.

Dude, this is the weirdest car ride I've ever taken...
