Chapter 8
“What do you think, blue shirt or green shirt?” Taylor asked Katrina, as he and his brothers dug through their many suitcases, trying to find something to wear for the photoshoot.
“Hmmm.....blue, it’ll go better with your eyes,” Katrina decided.
“Good choice, I’m going to the bathroom to get changed into it,” Taylor replied.
“Zac, what happened to your hair! It’s so tangled!” Katrina exclaimed, examining Zac’s knotted, messy hair.
“Well I was tired for waiting for mom to do my braids, so I decided to try to do them myself.....Zac said sheepishly.
“Here, let’s see what I can do,” Katrina said, grabbing a brush and getting to work.
After 10 minutes Katrina finally fixed Zac’s hair.
“Wow, it looks a lot better, thanks Kat!” Zac said, admiring his hair,
Luckily Ike wasn’t wearing too much of a bad outfit, other than his horrible orange-red cords he wanted to wear (sorry Ike, but they are HORRIBLE). After convincing him to change into another pair of pants, he looked so much better!
Katrina was pleased with they’re results. Taylor was wearing a blue shirt and a pair of baggy blue jeans with his hair back in a ponytail. Isaac was wearing a green shirt and a pair of chinos, with his hair down. Zac was wearing a dark blue shirt with a pair of baggy beige pants, with his hair in braids and a pair of black sunglasses. They were all wearing Airwalks and they all looked terrific! Luckily the photo shoot was one where they got to choose what they wanted to wear for once!
They all ran down to the 2nd floor of the dock to the Game Room. The lady in charge of the shoot allowed Katrina to watch, once the boys told the lady that Katrina was a friend.
The boys did a great job on the shoot. They played video games and foozball and ping pong. Taylor actually smiled for the pictures and Katrina knew that the pictures of all 3 of them would turn out great.
For the rest of the day, the boys and Katrina rollerbladed on the deck. They also went ‘exploring’ a bit more, checking out the shops on the ship. They also went back to the Games room and played more games and stuff.
At 11 o’clock, Katrina said good-bye to the boys and promised she’d call them the next day.
***************************************
When she got home, Katrina decided it was time to call her parents. Her eyes filled with tears and she had to bite her lip from crying, as she slowly dialed her phone number. The phone rang and Katrina recognized her mother’s voice say hello as she picked up the phone.
“Mom....” Katrina said sobbing.
“Katrina! Oh honey, where are you? You have us so worried! Are you okay??? Oh it’s so good to hear from you! Don’t ever do that to us again! Oh I miss you so much! When are you coming home??????” Mrs.Warrners tearful voice asked.
“Just a second! One question at a time!” Katrina said, a bit more happy to speak to her mother.
“Oh, I missed you so much! Where the heck are you? The police and the whole town has been searching for you!” Mrs.Warrner asked.
“I miss you too mom! I’m on a cruise ship, that’s probably why you can’t find me. It goes to Hawaii, there’s only 20 more days before I come home,” Katrina said.
“Oh, honey are you all right?” Mrs.Warrner asked.
“I’m doing great, actually. Besides the fact that I miss you guys like crazy! I met a nice family and I’m baby-sitting for them, I’m friends with their 3 oldest kids,” Katrina explained.
“Just a second...I’m going to put your father on,” Mrs.Warrner said.
“Sweetie?” Mr.Warrners deep voice asked.
“Yes, it’s me,” Katrina said, getting teary eyed again.
“Are you okay?” Mr.Warrner asked.
“I’m fine,” Katrina replied, “Daddy I gotta go, I have to get ready for bed, it’s already 11:30.”
“So soon!” Mr.Warrner said in a disappointed voice.
“Yes, sorry. Bye Dad, I love you. Can you put mom on?” Katrina asked.
“Yes, I love you too,” Mr.Warrner said.
“Katrina?” Mrs.Warrner asked, “what would you like?”
“I just wanted to say goodnight and I love you,” Katrina said tearfully.
“Goodnight sweetie, I love you too,” Mrs.Warrner said softly.
“Give a hug and kiss to Nicki for me, bye mom,” Katrina said.
“I will, goodnight,” Mrs.Warrner said.
Katrina sat there for a minute, just thinking in silence.
BBBBBBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
Katrina nearly jumped 10 feet in the air when she heard the phone ring.
“Hello?” Katrina asked.
“Hi!” a hyper voice said back.
“Zac?” Katrina asked unsurely.
“Yep that’s my name, don’t wear it out. You are the most hardest person to get a hold of! Your phone line has been busy for the last hour!” Zac complained.
“Sorry bout that, what did you want?” Katrina asked.
“Well first of all, I wanted to ask if 10 o’clock tomorrow morning was too early to come over at. And Tay wanted me to tell you, he loves you!” Zac yelled gleefully.
Katrina heard a bunch of yelling and “You jerk!” being said from someone (probably Taylor!). She also heard a big crash and Zac yelling “HELP KAT, TAYLOR’S KILLING ME! HE’S ATTACKING ME WITH A PILLOW! THIS IS HARASSMENT AND I DON’T HAVE TO TAKE IT!”
Finally someone came on the phone.
“Katrina, you still there?” a voice asked.
“Yea, who is this?” Katrina asked.
“It’s Taylor. Sorry about that. Zac has locked himself in the bathroom now, so I can’t kill him at the moment,” Taylor said in a evil voice.
“Jordan Taylor Hanson, beating up on your brother, I’m ashamed of you!” Katrina teased him.
“Good! By the way, I didn’t tell Zac to say what he told you....” Taylor said, sounding embarrassed.
Katrina could just picture Taylor standing by the phone and turning red.
“That’s okay, Zac can be an idiot at times,” Katrina said with a giggle.
“AT TIMES! How about always!” Taylor replied.
“Well, I better get going, I have to get some sleep tonight,” Katrina said with a yawn.
“Okay, we shouldn’t keep you up. So is it okay if we come by at 10 tomorrow?” Taylor asked.
“Sure that’s fine, goodnight Taylor,” Katrina said.
“Night Kat, see you tomorrow,” Taylor said.
Katrina hanged up the phone. She wondered how long Zac would be locked in the bathroom, Taylor sounded really PO’d at Zac.
She got into her PJ’s and turned on the TV. She fell asleep in the glow of the TV and the quiet sound of the TV.
