Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy! :D I is back! This chapter is mostly everyone's reactions to Julia's answer... and her answer. duh. Also, someone's got a secret ;)
Kru: AHHH THE SUSPENSE IS STILL KILLING ME!
Ok, calm down, I'm starting the story... Jesus.
Enjoy!
Julia's P.O.V.
This is all I ever wanted, I thought. I loved Kevin, there was no denying that. I've had my doubts about his love for me, but if he's proposing, he obviously loves me.
"Yes," I said. "Yes, I will marry you." He slid the ring onto my finger and wrapped my in a hug.
"I love you so much, Julia," Kevin said before kissing me.
"I love you, too."
"Did you really follow through with it?" Wait a sec. Was that Cole?
"Yeah, man! I'm engaged, now!" Kevin replied.
"Nice, man!" Cole gave him a high five. "Congratulations, guys. I'm really happy for you." Ok, this was just a tad bit awkward. Cole's happy for us? And he's friends with Kevin?! Where did this come from?!
Suddenly, the others heard the noise we were making, and started coming into the room asking questions.
"We're getting married!" Kevin announced. There was a pause, but then they started clapping.
"We're gonna through you the best bachelor party EVER!" Jay shouted. He would think a party first...
"How about tomorrow night?" Cole asked.
"Ok, it's settled! Guys, get ready to party tomorrow night!"
Everyone then started talking at once. The guys started planning the bachelor party, while the girls... left the room. Great friends, right?
Nya's P.O.V.
"Ok, I haven't known her as long as you, but I did NOT see their relationship going this far," I told Amanda and Kru. After the announcement, we were all pretty shocked, so we decided to have a little meeting.
"Is it just me, or does that relationship seem totally unnatural?" Amanda asked. "It's like Julia would be so much happier with someone else..."
"Like Kai!" Kru chimed in. "It's SO obvious that she loves him. I can see it in her eyes."
"Kai loves her, too," I said.
"WHAT?!" they said in unison.
"He told me he loved her. I just hope he's ok, ya know, now that she's getting married..."
"Dude, that sucks. I mean... poor Kai. What's he gonna do now?" Amanda asked.
"I don't know. But if Kevin and Julia aren't happy truly happy together, then why are they getting married?"
"Cuz Kevin's a bitch." Amanda and I shot Kru a look. "What? It's true. Why else would Kai knock him out like that in public? Unless he has anger management issues or something."
"Sometimes he does, but he doesn't usually take it out on people... What did Kevin say to Kai in the first place?" I said.
"I don't know..." Amanda said. "Maybe you can ask him? Ya know, him being your brother and all..."
"Ok. Maybe later, though."
Amanda's P.O.V.
"It just seems like... they're destined to be with other people, ya know?" I said to Zane. We were in our room, me climbing into bed.
"I agree," he said. Wow. Did NOT see that coming. "It seems something evil is surrounding their relationship."
"Maybe it's because Kevin was once a snake?"
Zane shook his head. God, he was so sexy when he was serious... "It is... something else. I am not sure. But something is not right with this marriage."
Cole's P.O.V.
After everyone went to their rooms for the night, I snuck out my window, racing to the bar down the street. I had just sent Melissa a text to meet me there in ten minutes.
Ok, I should probably explain who she is...
**Flashback (the night Julia and I broke up)
"Hey, Cole," a familiar voice said behind me. "You wanted to see me?" I turned away from my glass of beer long enough to look at the brown-haired woman who called my name.
"Hi, Melissa." Melissa was my neighbor growing up, and when I took off to become a ninja, we were still the best of friends.
"Oh God, Cole, you reek. How many beers have you had already?"
"... I dunno."
Melissa rolled her big, hazel eyes. "Whatever. What's wrong?" I explained to her what happened with me and Julia, and I how I think I might actually have feelings for her.
"OMG! Cole has a crush! That's sooo -"
"Do NOT say it."
She leaned in real close and said it anyway. "CUTE."
"Dude, why are you making such a big deal?"
"Cuz usually you date 'em and dump 'em like meaningless whores."
"UGH!" I chugged the rest of my beer and slammed the glass on the table. "What the hell is wrong with me? I finally find a decent girl that I can make a relationship out of and I blow it! I'm a fucking failure at EVERYTHING! Why do you even bother talking to a loser like me?" I looked her in the eyes and waited for an answer, and I realised how beautiful she really was. (I realised later on that this wasn't the alcohol talking)
"Cole, you're NOT a loser. You're actually one of the most caring and dedicating guys I know, it's just you need to find the right person. If you only asked her out for her looks, then she's definitely not the one. Besides, there are other people who want to be with you more than you could ever imagine." Her voice got soft at the end, and I realised she was giving me a hint. So I kissed her.
"So, um, you wanna... go out to a movie or something?"
Melissa smiled. "You've never seemed so awkward in your life." My heart sank, but then she said, "What does this tell you?" And she kissed me.
**End of Flashback
I only sneak out once a week, but today was special. I got to the bar just in time to open the door for a certain brown-haired angel.
"Allow me," I said. She smiled her beautiful smile, then kissed me.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey."
"So what's so urgent?"
"Julia's getting married." Her eyes widened in fear, but I continued anyway. "I was wondering if you'd like to be my date for the wedding?"
Melissa relaxed. "Of course, Cole. Was that really all that important? You knew I'd say yes."
"I know. I just wanted to see you."
Kai's P.O.V.
I tried my best not to burn Kevin's face off. If Julia's happy with him, maybe that's best. I had to keep reminding myself that Jules would be happy now - even if it WAS with... Kevin.
I hid in my room for most of the night, until Lloyd came in for bed. "You ok, man?" he asked me.
"I guess..."
"It'll be all right. Maybe you'll find someone else?" Lloyd was trying to make me feel better, but it really wasn't working.
"Maybe. I'm going for a run."
"You want me to come with you?"
"Nah, I need to be alone."
"Ok, just be careful." Oh, don't worry. I know exactly what I'm doing.
Julia's P.O.V.
Kevin said he was going out to tell his other friends about our engagement, so I was alone. I decided to pull out my guitar and play a little, but I needed somewhere more private. Too self-conscious. I packed my guitar on my bike and rode down to my favorite spot on the beach.
I sat on the rusty swing set and played "Million Bucks" by Cimorelli. (A/N: Never heard of them? Look them up on youtube they amazing!)
I don't need a thousand people screamin my name
I don't need overnight Hollywood fame
I don't need Platinum records up on my wall
I don't need a Lamborghini in my garage
Oh, oh, oh
Those things won't last forever
Oh, oh, oh
What I got is so much better
You and me on a summer night
Park that car, dancin in the headlights
You and I, late night drives
Your hand in mine, and all your time
I don't need money in my pockets, diamonds on my neck
The time I spent with you I know I'll never forget
You and me, is more than enough
Cuz you make me feel like a million bucks...
Kai's P.O.V.
I was depressed. I didn't know what else to do. The love of my life was marrying another man. My life seems so... pointless without her. I inched my way forward to the end of the rock, until my toes were hanging over the air.
Wait - what am I doing?! I don't wanna die!
I turned around to get back on the flat surface of the cliff, but it was too late; my trembling legs betrayed me, and all I could do was scream as the ground beneath me gave away.
Julia's P.O.V.
I kept playing and singing my heart out until I finished the song. While thinking of another song to match my happy mood, some part of me was compelled to look at the cliff to my left. Through the darkness, I saw a figure walk to the edge - and jump. The person was far away, but I could still hear the masculine scream as he fell.
Suddenly, it was as if I was falling with him. The strange vision showed me the man who jumped off the cliff.
"KAI! NOOOOOOO!" I yelled, even though I knew it wouldn't do anything. Then, I felt a strange power build up inside me, and my hands shot out, performing some kind of magic. What the hell?!
But I wasn't complaining, because whatever it was that I did held Kai in mid-air. When I realised what I was doing, I tried to control my new power. Slowly, I brought Kai back down to earth.
All lot of shit happened HERE. Can you BELIEVE Julia said yes? I can, cuz I know how the story ends... but that's only cuz I'm the author... How will Julia react to her friends non-approving attitude? And Cole DOES have feelings! He's in love now! Wouldn't it have sucked if I ended the chapter with Kai falling off the cliff? It's ok, I would never leave my baby's life hanging like that ;) Now, what about Julia's new powers? What's up with THAT? Will I ever stop questioning you at the end of my chapters? Maybe yes, maybe no, you will never know! XD
Ok, last question for now: Reviews?
