Kyira, Bella, Marcello, and Zane: How It All Began

Kyira opened the front door and walked into the living room. She sat on her recliner and curled into a ball, her hair covered her face as her tears fell silently.

Zane took Bella in the other room and laid her down, then came back into the living room with Marcello and Kyira. He sat on the arm of the chair and put his arms around Kyira's shoulders, but didn't say anything. There was only so much you could say to someone who had just been told that their best friend was about to die.

Kyira moved over in the chair so Zane could sit with her. She knew how uncomfortable the arm was and she needed someone to hold her right now.

Zane slid in next to her, still with his arms around her, "I apologize if I'm squeezing you out of the chair. I have a BGH." he chuckled lightly, "Big girly hiney."

Kyira laughed and smiled lightly.
"Well excuse me, I have a BFA."
((I'll let you figure out that on your own ^-^))

Zane laughed, "That makes two of us."

Kyira sighed and she felt another wave of sadness come on. She buried her head into Zane's chest and sobbed quietly.

"What's going on here?" Bella droned groggily as she dragged herself into the living room and sat on the couch, "Who died? It's so... dismal in here."

Kyira tried to dry off her tears the best she could and lifted her head, knowing her eyes were probably red.
"Nothing, Zane's cat just die and after he told me about her...I felt so bad for him..."
He better play along or else...

Zane nodded, sniffling very realisticly, "I named her Socks... we only had her a few weeks, but she was one of the few creatures I had ever gotten attached to..."
Marcello nodded as well.
Bella stuck her lower lip out and threw her arms around Marcello, "I'm so sorry about your cat!! I had one named Socks, too, and if she died, I'd be heartbroken!"

Kyira couldn't help but hide her face to grin. Bella was easily fooled, and even though it really wasn't a time to laugh or smile, she couldn't help to. Bella was just too innocent sometimes.

Zane almost chuckled a little himself. While Bella had her face buried in Marcello, he had to struggle not to burst into laughter.

"Okay, I'm going to go fix some food. Bella, stay. Watch some TV."
Kyira jumped up and sprinted to the kitchen.
((Day or night time darling?))

((night))
Bella crossed her arms, "But nothing good is on right now... You know I rarely watch TV..."
Zane and Marcello laughed at the exact same time.

"I'll go get my neighbors porn if you don't watch something." Kyira called as she pulled out a frozen pizza and turned on the oven.
She grabbed 3 cans of soda and went back to the living room. Tossing to at Marcello, one for him and one for him to hand to Bella, and tossing one to Zane.

"I'd rather watch Zane strip." Bella muttered, "It's better than fatso next door's redneck porn on ice."
Zane couldn't help but blush as Marcello laughed so hard he couldn't breathe.

Kyira laughed and dropped to the floor, remembering when they had foolishly left the window open and saw Mr. Shwartz watching to the show porn.
"Oh man, that was so hilarious. He was so into the movie."

Bella frowned, "It wasn't funny, it was disgusting. She looked like the before pictures to a rapid weight loss diet."

Kyira felt herself twitch, then she felt queasy.
"Oh geeze Bella..."
She gave Bella that thanks-for-making-me-vomit look as she ran down the fall gagging.

Bella looked over at Zane with the most sincere face she could make without appearing sick to her stomach, "It's the truth. I don't know why she didn't just shut the window quickly and back off."

"Because I was in shock..." Kyira called from the hall as she walked back, a bit green.
She looked towards Bella with a frustrated face.
"Thanks..."

Zane smiled playfully, "Still want to watch me strip?"
Marcello rolled his eyes, but Bella laughed and clapped, "Just get down to your boxers, is all."

Kyira ignored this, as best she could, and went into the kitchen to finish the pizza.
Oh man, oh man, oh man!!!

There was a lot of whooping and hollering from Bella in the other room, followed by silence and shushing. When Kyira came back in, Zane was sitting on the chair in his boxers, waving with his fingertips to Kyira. He looked incredibly embarrassed, but Kyira knew firsthand how persuasive Bella could be. His boxers were pink plaid with a pink rhinestone skull on them. His body was covered in tattoos, including the word "faithful" on his stomach and black angel wings covering his whole back. He was blushing a bright shade of red. Marcello pointed at a hysterical Bella, "It was all her idea."

Kyira stood there, in a bit of shock. Next thing everyone heard was a loud thump and Kyira laying passed out on the floor.
