Here is a brand new story based in the middle of season 4, it's about Jack making some difficult choices between Taylor (girl from Nerd with a cape) and someone else when they come back into town to stay for a while. Hope you enjoy this, won't be a one-shot most likely there'll be a few chapters. By the way I came up with this idea when I first started watching the series but I never had the chance to write it and I thought I should write this before Disney 'steals' it! Enjoy and review please!


Jack was practicing a new Bo staff routine in the dojo with Taylor watching

"Wow Jack, you're really good."

"Thanks."

"It looks hard."

"It isn't, why don't you come over here and I'll show you." Jack said

"No no no, I'm fine over here thanks."

"You'll be fine."

"No I have to work."

"Jerry!" Jack said

"Yeah man?" Jerry asked coming over

"Take care of Taylor's job while I show her how to use a Bo staff." Jack replied

"Sure no prob."

"Thanks." Jack said walking towards Taylor "Come on."

"No, Jack. I don't think this is such a good idea." Taylor said while Jack was pulling her to the mats

"It'll be fine. Just keep your eyes on me." Jack reassured Taylor

"I don't know Jack, maybe you can show me."

"Ok, here's an easy routine." Jack said then demonstrated

"Ok, is there an easier one?"

"No, that's the easiest one there is."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah."

"Fine, I'll try." Taylor said then failed trying

"No, not like that, like this." He said holding the Bo staff around her, holding her arms and moving them to do the routine properly but Taylor wasn't concentrating. She turned around facing Jack and they looked into each other's eyes for a moment until Taylor leaned in.

But Jack stepped away before anything happened.

"Great. You're doing… great. I've got to go." Jack said going into the changing room

But Jack didn't notice what fell out of his pocket.

After a few minutes of being in the smoothie station, Taylor noticed it on the floor.

It was a single cherry blossom petal. Taylor was about to put it in the bin.

Jerry shouted "Taylor stop!"

"What? Why?" Taylor asked "It's just a cherry blossom petal."

"It's Jack's and he will go berserk if anything happens to it!"

"Why?" Taylor asked

"His ex-girlfriend gave it to him."

"If it's from his ex why does he keep it?"

"Because they both still like each other."

"Then why'd they break up?"

"What's with all the questions?" Jerry asked "They broke up because she moved to Japan to go to the Otai academy."

"But-"

"Sorry, no more questions." Jerry said as Jack came out

"Jerry have you seen it?"

"Seen what?"

"You know what!"

"You mean that thing from her."

"Yes."

"Here you go." Jerry said giving it to him

"You knew I was looking for it?" Jack asked

"No…" Jerry said awkwardly "I was going to give it to you."

"Really?" Jack said not believing him

"Yeah, I was. I stopped someone from putting it in the bin."

"Who? Who was it?" Jack said grabbing Jerry's shirt

"I don't know."

"You stopped someone you don't know from putting the most important thing to me in the bin and then you tried to toy with me about it?" Jack said starting to get aggressive

"Jack calm down. I nearly put it in the bin. I didn't know it was yours or how important it was but thank goodness Jerry stopped me."

"Yeah, thank goodness." Jack scoffed letting go of Jerry's shirt and walking away

"Sorry about that." Taylor said to Jerry

"Nah, it's cool." Jerry said "Just remember, if you see a cherry blossom petal anywhere where Jack has been, pick it up and give it to him straight away."

"Then why didn't you?"

"I wanted to show you what he's like if you do that to him."

"Thanks. I think." Taylor said walking back to the smoothie station and Jerry walked over to Jack who was sitting on the bench by his locker looking at the picture of Kim he kept in there.

"Hey man, are you okay?"

"Fine. Dude, I'm sorry about earlier."

"It's cool yo." Jerry replied "So, I noticed you and Taylor had a moment. Are you going to ask her out?"

"No."

"Why not?" Jerry said then noticed at the picture of Kim in Jack's hands "Kim?"

"Yeah."

"Man, you've got to get over her."

"I know."

"She's not going to come back for a while. And who knows maybe things would've changed between you two by then." Jerry said "You've got to let her go."

"I know."

"What are you talking about?" Milton asked coming over

"Jack should ask Taylor out."

"Why?"

"Because they like each other."

"They do? You do?" Milton asked Jerry then Jack

"Look Taylor's great but..."

"You still like Kim." Milton said and Jack nodded

"Look Jack, Kim's in Japan. She's not coming back for a while and probably she's going through the same thing as you."

"You're right?" Jack replied

"He's right?"

"I'm right?"

"How does it feel?" Milton asked

"My head's pulsing and instead of it being blank I can picture stuff."

"It's called thinking." Jack said

"I don't like it! Make it stop!" Jerry

"Jack, the real question is do you still like her?"

"Of course."

"Then it shouldn't matter that she's in another country, another continent even. If you really love her then you'd wait."

Before Jack could say anything about what Milton had just said Jerry beat him to it "Yeah man but what happens when she comes back here and if she's over him and moved on. What happens then? Jack's going to be alone and trying to get over Kim all over again."

Milton also beat Jack and spoke first "Are you saying that Kim doesn't love Jack?"

"No dude of course I'm saying that." Jerry replied "I'm just saying what if she meets someone in Japan and was thinking that Jack would want her to move on, goes out with him and finds someone new. A lot can happen in a few years."

"You probably don't even believe in love anyway because you can't even have one girlfriend at a time and when you're older you'll never be able to 'tie down' with one girl!" Milton said

"Okay, two things. One, true yes I'm not a big believer of love and two, this isn't about me. This is about Jack needing to move on and get over Kim!"

The two of them then began arguing about relationships, Jerry insulted Milton by saying he can't give romantic advice because he's only ever had like three girlfriends. Milton said he shouldn't give Jack romantic advice because he knows nothing about romance only how to play girls. In fact those two were so involved in arguing that they didn't even notice Jack leave.

Jack just went outside of the dojo to get away from Milton and Jerry fighting when Taylor goes up to him about to go back in the dojo from her regularly scheduled break.

"Hey Jack." Taylor said then noticed the time "Weird, you don't normally finish for another 40 minutes."

"I know but Milton and Jerry are arguing and I had to just get out of there."

"What is it this time?"

"Just something stupid." Jack said noticing Taylor was smiling to everything he was saying

"Can I ask you something?" Taylor asked

"Sure."

"If a girl likes a guy and wants to know if he likes her back. How does she do it? I mean, does she make it obvious enough that she's flirting with him, just tell him, wait to find out if he likes her or get someone to find out for them." Taylor said "Or just ask him out on a date?"

"Well, really get someone but it depends. Maybe she should just tell him and ask him out, it seems best." Jack said not realising what Taylor was doing

"Thanks Jack. That really helps."

"Glad to." Jack said about to walk off when Taylor says something

"So would you like to go on a date?"
