Cat and Robbie - A Cabbie Love Story

'Disney!'

Chapter 2 - 'Disney!'

__________________________

Cat's POV

So, as Robbie suggested, we pushed through the door into Sikowitz's room with our heads held high.

Just as I suspected, every eye in the room was on us. I squeaked and held onto Robbie's arm even harder.

We casually strode down a path in the middle of the seats to the front as Jade stood up.

'May I now present to you, the newly wed Mr and Mrs Shapiro!' she exclaimed loudly, in the voice she uses to mock Tori.

Everyone started to laugh.

'I don't get it?' I said, tilting my head to the side and staring at Robbie, waiting for an answer from him.

He looked peeved and shot a death glare at Jade. He then looked at me and motioned to the arm I was clutching and then the path through the seats we walked down.

'Ohhhh... We look like a bride and groom!' I exclaimed, giggling at the thought.

Robbie was not so amused. He looked more uncomfortable than anything.

My face dropped as I broke away from him and sat down in a huff. He sat in the chair furthest away from me.

Was the thought of marrying me really THAT depressing?

I guess so.

'SO that was eventful! Sikowitz said with a crazy laugh.

He took a sip of his coconut milk and moved to the centre of the small stage.

'Today class, we will be doing improv.' he started

There were a few hoots from around the room. Improv was fun! For both the performers and the audience, which made everything even more enjoyable.

We hadn't done it for a while, as last time there was a little incident involving Jade, Tori and coffee...

'Right. So I will pick 4 of you to come up one by one. And each time, someone from the class will decide that person's character. Compredes?'

'Okay'

'Yeah sure'

'Cooool!'

'First up! Since you were late today Cat, you will be the first character'

ugh.

I stood up and made my way to the stage, looking out at all the faces waiting to give me a humiliating role, most probably to do with Robbie since he was late too.

'Next, lets see... Andre! Up here please'

phew. No Robbie. I don't think I could take another public show.

'Right... Now Torro!'

'Is that supposed to be me...?' asked Tori, looking behind her as if there were some other 'torro' here.

'and finally...'

'WAIT!' yelled Jade, standing up.

oh no.

'Why is Cat up there, and not Robbie? He was late too. You wanna start a riot here Sikowitz?!'

Sikowitz rolled his eyes.

'ugh fine. Afro get up here'

Robbie touched his hair self-consciously and slowly got up from his chair. Rigid as a board.

Robbie's POV

Oh great, now I get to turn into a tomato in front of the whole class.

There's no doubt in my mind that Jade will make Cat and I act out something to do with kissing or whatever...

It's not that I wouldn't want to do that, it would be unbelievable, it's just... I don't think Cat would feel comfortable and I couldn't take it if she rejected me, even if it was just for a sketch...

Hesitantly, I made my way up to the stage and stood beside Tori.

'Don't worry, Sikowitz won't let Jade make you do something awkward. Ignore her anyways, she's just being a wazzbag as usual' she said to me, with a swift elbow nudge.

I sniggered and noticed Cat look across Andre and Tori at me. Boy, if looks could kill! I suppose she's guessed that we're going to be put together for something and has decided that it's my fault.

'Alright! Now we have our actooors!' Sikowitz began, throwing his arms in the air and sending coconut milk flying all over the place.

'We need to set the theme-'

'A Wedding!' yelled Lexi, some bimbo at the back of the class.

'The birth of a baby with curly red hair?' giggled Britney, Lexi's best friend.

The two girls winked at each other.

'Or what about two teenagers about to have-' started Jeremy, Britney's boyfriend.

'ALRIGHT THAT'S ENOUGH!' yelled Sikowitz, making a 'cut' motion with his hands.

These, ladies and gentlemen, are what I call the mean kids.

I looked over at Cat to see her reaction and saw her roll her eyes. She looked up at me and shrugged her shoulders, looked pissed.

The class were in hysterics.

'Ignore them' I mouthed to her with a smile.

She nodded and grinned back at me.

'I think we'll let one of our actors decide this one, as our audience have the maturity of small raccoons today' Sikowitz said, folding his arms and turning to face us.

We all stood there thinking for a second when and idea seemed to dawn on us and all four of us started to talk at once.

'A restaurant-' Tori started

'Music-' said Andre

'A day at the-' I began

'DISNEY!' yelled Cat jumping up and down, so loud that you could barely hear any of our answers.

'Okey dokey monkey smokey' chimed Sikowitz, throwing his head back to laugh like some kind of crazy man.

Disney, hm. That could work.
