KALI WAKES UP TO HEARING her phone ring. She looks at her alarm clock and answers "hello?" She says her voice raspy from just waking up "Kali Raylynn Carrera. You were supposed to be here fifteen minutes ago! Why are you still sleeping?!" Her dad yells at her through the phone as she gets up and mumbles a few curse words as she gets out her clothes.

"I'm on my way! My alarm didn't go off till late I'm so sorry dad!" She says hanging up the phone and rushing to get in the shower and be ready.

Kie had told Kali that their dad needed her to work today and that was an hour ago and she was half sleep when her sister rudely barged in her room. She rushes out to her car fixing her hair a bit and drives to the wreck.

As Kali pulls up she sees JJ, Kie, John B, and Pope. She walks in and goes straight to the back not wanted to talk to them. "Kal we need to show you something" she hears JJ say she gets some cups. Kali ignores the blonde boy and continues to work. "Kal please, we need you there"

Kali debates on responding as she pauses. She looks to JJ "I'm not doing this stupid treasure hunt with you guys anymore." She says walking to the kitchen with dishes.

Kali hears someone else follow her back and assumes it's Lucy "Lu I'm sorry but I ca-" she says turning around to see Kie "look Lii..I'm sorry about what I said to you I didn't mean it" she says with a hint of annoyance in her tone at how 'childish' Kali is being. Kali continues to work and ignores her sister "but please don't back out on John B because of me" she says the last part with less attitude.

Kali continues to ignore her. Kie sighs and goes back to the group and Kali lets out a breath she didn't know she was holding in and leans on the counter. She hears the door open and she looks up to see Rafe. Her heart skipped a beat as all the events from last night come back to her in a flash.

Kali shakes her head and walks towards Rafe "not here not while they are here" Kali says pointing to her sister and friends as they look back to her with the at most shock on their faces. Well except for Lucy because Wheezie over heard Rafe talking to Kelce about Kali and had to tell Lucy who wanted to ask Kali but never had the chance.

Kali takes Rafes arm and walks him out through the back. Once she's out of the door Kali makes sure no one but her and Rafe are out here "what are you doing here?" She says and Rafe shrugs "I wanted to check on you after last night" he says and Kali's attitude softens a bit. She never knew Rafe would actually check up on her after what all they have done to each other since they were kids.

"I'm fine now im still pissed at my sister but it's fine" Kali says whipping her hand on her pants as they had got super sweaty. Rafe looks at her and opens his mouth to say something but closes it "so what happened with you two?"

Kali physically gets uncomfortable and looks down at her feet "nothing. It was just a stupid argument.." she lies and Rafe crosses his arms "Kali your lying. I'm not forcing you to tell me it's your choice" he says and Kali looks to him with a small smile.

Kali just says ok and looks to Rafe "was that all?" She asks and her shakes his head "no I'm here to remind you about Kelce's party" Kali rolls her eyes "do I seriously have to go" Rafe nods his head "yep and there's no objections allowed" he says with a smirk and Kali just rolls her eyes "fine whatever I'll ask my dad"
