5 Comatoast 1 (2/2)
”There is still more in my car. Go get it.”
He sighed inwardly then he walked to her car and took her stuff to her room.
While Quinton Electra was carrying Carmen Kizler's stuff she sat next to Kai on a couch. Her hair was tied up in a bun. She was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and pink sweatpants, ”This place is sooo cool. We should totally hold a party. If I tell people that the campus celebrity lives here we could have a full house. I mean the fridge is full of beers, it's almost as if they want us to throw a party. Plus I'll make sure that the girl to guy ratio is in your favour. I go both ways so it doesn't bother me. So what do you say?” She said flickering her verdant eyes.
”Sounds like a plan.” Kai agreed immediately.
”Awesome!” She said while slapping his chest, ”I'll call it in and then the people should be here in about two hours.”
Then she stood up from the seat next to Kai and went to her room humming. By the time she stood up Quinton Electra was done packing her things so he came out her room and saw her humming. She walked past him and then closed her room's door. Once she closed the door Quinton Electra took a deep breath through his nostrils, 'Aah, the only thing that smells better than toast.'
Once he was done smelling her lavenderish scent. He walked to Kai and then sat down, ”So what did she say?”
”She wants to throw a party tonight to celebrate us three living together. I'm sorry man, she knows so much attractive girls. I kind of caved when she said that.”
”It's okay… I'd rather have her kissing other guys or girls in my presence than her doing it behind my back.”
”You know you should just tell her you like her. This is silly.”
”You know I can't. What if she says no…?”
”Oh, she is most definitely going to say no.” He said raising his eyebrows.
”Wow, thanks for the vote of confidence.”
”It's just that you act like a puppy when you are around her. She owns you, man… You do what she wants whenever she wants. No matter how much it inconveniences you. If I didn't know any better you have been friend zoned my guy. Also, she knows you like her and that is why she makes you her slave because she knows you can't say no. I don't understand how you don't see it. You have seen it happen many times. WE used to be the guys laughing at the guys she friendzoned. And here you are but I'm not laughing…”
Quinton Electra's whole mood plummeted after listening to Kai. He just stared into s.p.a.ce in silence.
”I'm sorry man, I just thought you needed to know. I didn't mean to be so blunt.”
”No, you are right. I have been her pet. But that ends tonight. Tonight I am going to kiss all her friends that ought to make her jealous!”
”I'm not sure that's the lesson I wanted you to take from this-”
”No, you are right. She doesn't see me as a man, but I'll make her see it tonight. Bro I'm going to need you to wing me.”
”Ag what the heck… So what you saying, the divine twins are back?”
”They are back and badder than ever. I'm going to rack up an insane body count tonight. I can feel it. I'm going to break my record. And maybe you can rack your first body tonight. Ha?”
”I love the enthusiasm but let's not get ahead of ourselves. You haven't been in the game for a while. And don't worry about me man. Tonight is about you.”
”Hha true. I need to start slow. Thanks, man”
”Exactly, and don't worry, I got you.”
”Thanks, man, I needed this. I haven't been this excited for a party since, since-”
”Since 6 months ago before you accidentally saw Carmen naked… I get it, man, she has the sauce. But yoh! She slapped you that day.” Kai said laughing.
”Dude it's not funny. Who soundproofs their shower room!? I had a red mark on my face for weeks! Mothers were grabbing their little girls when they saw me. It was tough…”
”I'm sure it was but I am going to go take a bath. Man needs to freshen up for the ladies.”
Trying to hold in his laugh, ”That would have sounded so cool but the word 'bath' sucked every bit of masculinity out of it.”
”I can't help it that this place doesn't have a shower! That is my only complaint. But I'm here for free so we are just going to deal with it. Also from now on, I'll be referring to the bath as a shower.”
”Good plan, good plan.” He said clapping his hands.
After talking with Quinton Electra, Kai went to his room and took his toiletries out of his bag. Then he took his toiletries with him to the bathroom and poured himself a bath. Which he then climbed in, the bath was more comfortable than he expected so he closed his eyes until Quinton Electra stormed in the bathroom abruptly waking him up, ”Dude! What the heck are you doing?! I am still in the bath!” He said trying to submerge himself deeper in the water.
”Sorry man, the party has already started and I haven't had my toast yet. You know I need to have my toast to get my confidence up.”
”Dude! There are plugs all over the house why do you want to make it here!?”
”Carmen has her stuff plugged in all other outlets. Also, her friends are charging their Genome watches on the other plugs. Trust me I have checked. This is the only outlet that isn't occupied in the house!”
”Just plug it out; it's your house too!”
”I tried but Carmen said she would kill me if she catches me. And you know she always does.”
Sighing deeply, ”Oh okay man. Do what you got to do but I'm not coming out until you leave.”
”No problem I will be gone in no time. I just got the new Toaster Perfect 2000 deluxe version. It's not even out on the shelves yet but I know a guy who knows a guy who got it early for me. I have been waiting for months for this baby. You know it supposedly makes the best toast in the world in just two minutes. It can take up to eight slices of toast at once. Everything in this baby is designed to make your mou-”
”Mouth explode with unexplainable flavour?” Kai completed his sentence, ”Yes, you have only told me this 400 times over the past four months.”
”Hha sorry man you know how I get over toast.”
”It's cool man just do what you got to do.”
Quinton Electra didn't need to be begged to make toast. He plugged the toast machine in the outlet by the basin that was few centimetres away from Kai. Then he took out eight slices of white bread put it in the toaster.
”Eight slices? You sure are hungry.”
”Four are for you. For the inconvenience, I am putting you through.”
”Oh, okay. Thanks.”
Then he took his mother's home-made b.u.t.ter out of his bag. It was in a plastic lunchbox. He took his knife out of the side pocket. And then watched from above how the toast was grilling. Quinton was so moved by how the toast was being twisted and turned inside the machine. How it was being put into direct heat then removed. It was essentially doing what he did but automatically. Excited by this he had to show Kai. He grabbed the machine and dangled it over the bath and to show his friend.
”Look, Kai. Look it's doing what I used to do.” He said excitedly.
Kai, on the other hand, was furious, coming half out the water he shouted, ”ARE YOU INSANE! Get that death-trap away from me.”
Realizing how careless he was being he moved the toaster away from the bath. He was halfway when the door flung open.
Quinton Electra dropped the toaster when he saw who was standing at the door, ”It's not what it looks like. I am not gay? I just needed to make toast since you and your friends where hogging all the plugs. See look I have the toaster in my hands…” He said feeling his hands were empty.
”Look I have the toaster in my hands.” He repeated himself and still didn't feel the toaster in his hands. Then he looked downwards and saw that his hands were empty, 'But if I don't have the toaster in my hands then where could it be?' That's when he looked into the bath and saw Kai getting electrocuted. There was electricity and sparks everywhere until it stopped and it was just Kai's unconscious body in the water. He panicked and didn't know what to do…
That's when Carmen Kizler ran out and turned all the plugs off. The music that was pumping outside stopped. Then she ran back to the bathroom and saw Kai's unconscious body lying in the bath.
Quinton Electra was still panicking and so he froze. Seeing this Carmen Kizler screamed at him, ”Take him out the bath before he drowns!” That's when she dialled 777 to get the ambulance.
Coming out his shock he looked into the bath and saw Kai's unconscious body as well as the pieces of toast floating in the water, ”My toast.” He complained and then took Kai's body out of the water.
