Several moments have passed since Rodrick left you reeling by the window. You WERE the teaser. NO! ARE the teaser. He was not supposed to do that to you. It felt wrong on so many levels. It felt wrong that your body reacted like that. You remember how his large hands felt on your waist and his hips pressing into yours by the pool. His soft lips on your collarbone. You did not want to think of Rodrick like that. He was a pissy little emo boy who kissed you. That's right. He only kissed your forehead, but that was the final straw.
You quickly grabbed a duffel bag that was under your bed and headed towards your closet. You finally put on a pair of pants and a bra. You were not showing up without those two things. You stuff some clothes inside your bag and then head towards the mini kitchen in your basement, putting in some snacks and grabbing a bottle of wine. Zipping up the back, you move past some of the couples who have taken to the basement to make-out. Heading up the stairs you run into Kai.
"Oh hey." you say, flatly. He wasn't someone you really wanted to see after Chirag announced you and Rodrick were sleeping together (you weren't) and Heather thought you and Kai were dating (again, you weren't).
"I was trying to find you. I saw Rodrick come up the stairs so I thought I'd find you down here too." Kai says with a twinge of resentment. Ouch. You liked Kai and hated that he felt this way towards you. Towards Rodrick. There was still something there. What was Heather talking about a love triangle for? You also realize that if he saw Rodrick and You, freshly showered, you hoped his mind didn't think that you SHOWERED TOGETHER. You did not. It was spaced out. He saw you naked, but you were going to your grave with that secret. And now you realize you'll have to bribe or blackmail Rodrick to his.
"Kai... Rodrick and I aren't-" You say, trying to get the words out. Kai holds his hand up.
"Stop. I don't care about whatever's going on between you two. I know you're close because of the Fail-Safe program and now you're helping him with Battle of the Bands, that's fine." Kai says cutting you off. He realizes that it must sound a little sharp and takes your hand, running his thumb over your knuckles. "[Y/N]." Kai sighs out.
You watch him, but feel slight urgency in getting to Rodricks house. One, he has your robe with eyeliner smeared on it. That's gonna be a bitch to get out. Two, he was flirting with you and kissed you on the head. Three, he knew it was your birthday. Kai was important to you and you felt so comfortable with him and safe. But Rodrick had infuriated you tonight. It didn't help that your Father was also here and said something to Rodrick. Which made you wish you could figure it out as well.
"I just want to clear up something that Heather said. I am NOT using you in any way. I genuinely like you and have since you first blew me off in the parking lot on the first day of school." You both laugh at the memory. "I just want to let you know that. I like you. And when you are ready and not however-many- shots deep and sober, I'd like to take you on a date sometime." Kai looks deep into your eyes, still holding your hand.
Mentally, your jaw drops. In reality, you perk up. Kai likes you? And wants to take you on a date? What the ever-loving fuck is going on tonight? Why are all the boys, Rodrick, Kai, and even Chirag, hitting on you? You knew you were pretty hot, but that's because you were the new girl who could give a fuck about them. That is what made you interesting.
"I'm not..." You start and then stop yourself. You had trouble opening up, but Kai was sweet and kind. He was there for you when you were upset. He deserved at least one date. And you can't lie and say you weren't interested in him. He was attractive and talented. "Sure, Kai. I'll need to sober up, but I'll call you when I am ready for that date." He smiles at you and leans in. He kisses your cheek lightly and when he pulls away, smiles once again. He lets go of your hand gently and walks away. You leave the basement stairs area and walk towards the kitchen.
