[Kim]

I took a deep breath and pushed open the doors of Seaford High. I walked in with my flats making a faint tapping on the linoleum floor.

This was my third new school in four months. I was determined to make this time better. My dad's company moves him around a lot, but he promised me we're going to stay here until I graduate college. If I'm going to be stuck here for the next four years of my life, I better make a good first impression.

My schedules was clenched in my hand, only slightly crumpled.

1st period- Drama

it read. I took another deep breath and headed off to what I believed was the drama room.

I hear screaming from outside the door and was inclined to wait for second period. I push myself, though. I walk in and everyone starts staring at me. I gulp.

The drama teacher looke at me. (A/N: Just imagine the music teacher from Lemonade Mouth.)

"Sit," she orders. Her voice was so commanding I was inclined to sit on the floor. I thought that would be a little smart, so I took an open seat next to a kid with shaggy brown hair. He smiled at me, which I returned.

"Name," the drama teacher said pointing at me.

"K-Kim Crawford," I say shakily as I tried my best to sit up straight.

Her mood changed instantly."Well Kim," she says sweetly," I hope we'll have a great rest of the year with you joining us." But then her mood changed again."But if you make me mad, I will be your living nightmare," she says sternly. I nod.

"Well Kim you came just in time. We're short one person. You'll be paired with-" she took a look at her clipboard"-Jack for the rest of the year. Jack's the one sitting right next to you."

"Practice your skits, and some of you will be performing in front of us after class," she says and walks over to her desk doing who knows what.

I turn to Jack.

"So," I say with my hands on my lap," I guess we're partners."

"I guess we are," he says with a twinkle in his eyes. "I'm Jack Brewer, third-degree black belt," he says as he offers his hand.

"My, my, don't we like to gloat," I say jokingly.

"I admit, that was a little conceited. But when you're the only third-degree black belt, it gives you a few bragging rights," he admits.

"Well not anymore. I'm Kim Crawford, the newest third-degree black belt of Seaford High," I say with a smile.

"Really? Well Kim, you should join the Bobby Wasabi dojo. It's probably the most 'unique' dojo there is. But it's a blast." He offers.

"I just might," I say and bite my lip, a bad habit of mine.

"Jack and Kim! I hear a lot of talking and no acting!" the drama teacher yells without looking up.

"How does she know what acting sounds like?" I ask confused.

"Mrs. Bruner? It's just something she can do. She seems a bit scary but she's really cool," Jack explains.

"I'll take your word for it." I say, blushing slightly.

"Jack! Kim!" Mrs. Bruner yells.

We both murmur sorry.

"Um, so what's our skit?" I ask nervously.

"Well I was working with Stevie Baskara (A/N: I couldn't resist!) but she moved to California. We were doing a modern-take on Romeo & Juliet," Jack answers.

"Okay. So are you Romeo, or Juliet?" I say teasingly, which gets a laugh out of Jack and I think I even saw Mrs Bruner's lip waver a little.

Just then the bell rings. I couldn't believe a whole hour passed that fast. It feels like I just got here.

"Practice your skits at home! We'll be performing soon!" Mrs. Bruner yells over the clatter of chairs and backpacks.

I pick up my stuff and am about to head for door when I stop dead in my tracks.. I have no idea where my next class. I spin around, hoping someone is still her and can help. Fortunately, Jack is still here. I tap him on the shoulder.

"Hey Jack, I'm sorta lost and I was wondering if-"

"No worries Kim, I was new before too. I'll help you find your classes," he says with a genuine smile which I can't help but return.

"Here, hand me your schedule," he says. I reach into my jeans pocket and pull out a slip of paper, crumpled more than I remember.

"Now way," Jack says as he stares at the paper in disbelief.

"What?" I say worried.

"Your schedule matches mine exactly," he says not taking his eyes of the paper. Finally, he snaps out of it.

"Well, then you won't be needing this anymore," Jack says as he crumples up the paper and throws it into the wastebasket.

"I know my schedule better than the back of my hand," he explains.

"But I was supposed to show that to all of my teachers," I say worriedly.

"Oh," Jack says with a shocked expression. He walks over the wastebasket and is about to put his hand in when I yell 'Stop!'

He looks at me in confusion.

"I was only joking," I say a smile creeping onto my face. I worry for a minute that he'll be mad, but he breaks into a grin instead.

"Nice one. but I'll be getting you back soon," he says mischievously.

"I wouldn't count on it. I'm a black-belt, remember?" I remind him.

"But I am too," he shoots back.

"But you have too much boy-ego-pride to hit a girl," I says with a satisfied smirk.

I see him about to say something, but then he stops dead in his tracks. I know I've won.

He walks out the door and I follow him. This is gonna be a great four years of my life.

So how was that? Please review, I love getting your feedback, whether good or bad. Also, I want ot apologize again about the excessive use of the word 'say' and 'says'. I could literally not think of any other words. The next chapter will be about Kim meeting Jerry, Eddie, Milton & Rudy.
