Chapter Eighteen: Hanging Out

Kira's POV

I had so much fun on set today. I aced my scenes, and people treated me so nicely! But I still couldn't understand why Addison and Diego are still worried unlike Chris and Rosa, who I spent so much time with today. Jack just ignored me, but I don't really care. It's not Like I liked him anyway.

Since I didn't want to ruin my good mood, I went to Ryan who was with Jack and when she saw me, she smiled.

"Hey Kira! What's wrong?"

"Since I'm such in a good mood today, can I invite you two for pizza dinner at the Pizza Palace in the mall?" I ask them.

"Of coarse! Can I invite one of my friends?" Ryan questions.

"Sure! I'll wait for you guys at seven. See you there!"

"Can't wait!" She says before I left. I was about to invite Addison and Diego but they left. I tried to call Audrey but she didn't answer. The adults had their own plans, so I didn't butt in their business.

I went home and greeted my dad who was taking pictures of the moon, and baking some bread.

"Hey dad! I'm gonna be eating dinner out with my friends! Would you like to come?" i ask my dad.

"I actually have plans with your mom tonight, but thank you!" He answers and goes to the kitchen to check his bread.

I just shrugged and went upstairs to change to a simple grey polka-dotted dress with flower patterns on it and put my hair on a hight ponytail. I wore grey flats and got my purse then put my needed things in it and I left my house.

Walking to the mall, I realized that it was still early so I went to the park near Paramount. It wasn't really that far from the mall so I walked around anyway. I sat on swings, listened to music, watched kids play around and more. I went to a large tree in the hilly side of the park and sat there. I love the cool breeze.

My phone suddenly rang. I answered. "Hello?"

"Hey Kira, we're waiting for you at the Pizza Palace now."

"Oh okay. See you!" I drop the phone call and checked the time. Gosh, it passed seven already! That was quick.

I ran to the mall and went inside and looked for the table they were sitting in. Someone's waving phone suddenly caught my attention. It was them!

I walked to their table and took a couple of breaths.

"Were you running?" Ryan asks.

"Y- yeah." I looked around and saw that her friend wasn't here. "Where's your friend?"

"He went to the comfort room."

"I think I need to go too. Where is it?" Without looking at me, Jack pointed to his back and continued whatever he was doing on his phone.

Walking to the comfort room, I suddenly bumped into someone and he accidentally spilled juice on my arms.

"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!" I say to the guy and when I looked up, I couldn't agree that he was a good- looking guy. I mean, he is, but he's just a -- Kira, you're staring at him!

"It's okay. I'm also sorry. Here," he hand me tissue papers which I use to wipe my juiced arms.

"Thanks," after wiping, I held my hands up. "Sorry for that. My name is Kira, by the way."

He takes my hand and shakes it. "Chase. Chase Austin."

"Nice to meet you, Chase."

"And to you, Kira."

"Uh... I gotta go to the comfort room... So, excuse me,"

"Oh I'm sorry! I'll have to goto my friends now too. Nice meeting you!"

I smile and walk inside the comfort room. Chase is a nice guy.

After using the comfort room, I go back to Ryan and Jack's table only to find Chase with them too.

"Chase! You're here!" I say to him in suprise.

"You two know each other?" Ryan asks.

"I met her just a few minutes ago." Chase says to Ryan.

"Well, that's good!"

At that moment, Pizza was already served. I'm guessing they ordered first, but I'm okay with it.

I spent the night laughing with Chase and talking with Ryan. When I tried to talk to Jack, he just says, "Okay," or "That's great." which is unlike him. He still looked at me sometimes, which freaks me out a little.

I ended the night by paying the bill, even if Ryan and Chase wanted to pay, nobody could persuade me. Jack said the same thing, actually.

I said goodbye to Jack and Ryan, and they left. I was about to say goodbye to chase too but he didn't want to leave me.

"You're so kind!" I compliment him, as he walks me home.

"Look, I had a really great time with you tonight. I wish we could do it again sometime. Can I invite you to, maybe lunch, or something?" He asks me.

I thought of it for a moment and replied saying, "Sure! You're a really nice and polite guy. I would love to."

When I reached my house, I waves foodbye to Chase. He shot me a smile nut I just laughed and closed the door.
