What Should Have Happened:
A Kenna/Clenna Story
"I know exactly what Clare's is gonna look like when she find out about this!" Those words were ringing in Jenna Middleton's ears, as she grabbed punch. Alli would no doubt tell Clare that Jenna and KC had kissed at the banquet. Jenna couldn't help it. She had liked KC for months. But Clare was also a friend. She didn't know what to do. They had only been broken up a day, was she over him? And more importantly was KC over her?
"Hey Jenna." KC came over to her at the punch bowl. He smiled and Jenna's stomach flipped into a kind of sick that she had never known. "Lets get out of here." he said and she followed him into a hotel room. "Look at the size of the bed." KC said
"There is a whorl pool tube." Jenna said a little giddy.
"Well look at this." KC said and held up a chocolate bar.
"You know that is probably a $10 chocolate bar." she said.
"When I know what I want." he said coming closer to her. "I go after it." and he leaned in to kiss her
"KC wait." she said
"What?" he said
"I can't do this."
"Can't do what?" KC said confused. Jenna walked away, trying to find the courage to say this
"This, us." she said
"I thought that you wanted this?" he said
"I do. Its just.." her voice trailed off. She was finding the strength to say it "Alli is right."
"Right about what?"
"I don't want to see Clare's face when she finds out about us." she said
"I don't care." he said
"Yeah but I do. She isn't over you." Jenna said
"So what?"
"So what? KC you broke up with her yesterday. No way is she gonna be ok with us dating." she said
"Well Alli needs to mind her own business" KC said
"I don't care. Look, I like you, ok a lot. But Clare was my first friend when I got here. Before anyone else befriended me, she did. And I, well I came between you, and that was wrong."
"Whatever." KC said "Don't let it bother you."
"KC you don't get it. She is my friend. And she isn't over you. Not that I blame her." she said "And I am not totally convinced that you are over her."
"I am."
"You guys just broke up yesterday."
"Ok so maybe I still a little like her, but who cares I like you."
"Well, if you still like her, then that makes me the rebound girl. And rebounds never last." she touched KC face. "As long as Clare likes you and you like her, I wont be with you." she smiled and left the room. That was the hardest thing she ever had to do. She walked to Clare's house and hoped that she would answer the door. She did , her eyes were red and puffy.
"What the hell do you want?" Alli said who was beside her.
"To apologize." and Clare let her in. "Look Clare, I am sorry. I was a horrible friend. You really cared about KC, and I was selfish. I can't really blame you." Jenna said "I just want you to know, that after Alli talked to me, I realized that as long as you have feelings for KC, I won't do anything. Promise." Jenna said
"I forgive you, and thanks." Clare wiped her eyes. And Jenna hugged her. Jenna knew that the chances of her and KC getting together were slim to none know, but she thought about something she had said to Alli and she was gonna apply it to her and KC. If it is meant to be you and KC will be together, like destiny. Jenna didn't know if that was true, but she could always hope,
