Chapter 1 : Kim's First Day in her New World

KIM'S POV

I woke up early and finished trying to decide what I was going to wear for my first day at my new school. Being new and coming into a school four months into the year is not the easiest thing to do, but it is nothing new for me. My dad is in the navy and we move around a lot. I love getting to see so much of the world, but have to admit that it would be really nice to finish a school year in one place. So far my high school career has been spread out over seven schools and I am only a junior.

My dad offered to let me go to a boarding school for high school so that I wouldn't have to move around with him, but I just couldn't leave him alone. When my mom passed away, it was all he could do to hold himself together. I have to stay with him to make sure that he is alright. As much as I hate moving, I despise the thought of being away from my dad. He has such a big heart and I know that he would do anything for me so I want to do the same thing for him.

I was aimlessly shuffling through all of the clothes in my closet trying to find something that would work for today and not having any luck. I didn't know what to wear to make the right impression here in California. I continued to look through everything and was getting more and more frustrated.

There was a knock at my door and I said, "Come in."

"Good morning, beautiful." My dad said with a smile peeking his head around my door. "Having trouble deciding what to wear still?"

I looked over at him with a sad face and he laughed. "Dad!" I scolded. "This is a really big deal. If I wear the wrong thing, I might not make the right impression. I want this to be a really good year."

He looked at me and shook his head. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. How can I make it up to you?"

I smiled at him and replied, "Dad, I don't know, but I will think about it and get back to you." Then I giggled lightly.

"Ok. How about I see if this helps?" He said with a smile and came into my room holding a dress bag and shopping bag.

I ran over to him and jumped up to hug him. He squeezed me with his free arm and then I gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, Daddy! Thank you!" I squealed. "When did you have time to do this?" I asked.

He poked me gently on the tip of my nose with his finger and answered, "Kimmy, I made the time. I will always make the time for you."

I hugged him again and said, "Thank you. This means a lot. I am going to get dressed right now."

He kissed me on the forehead and started out the door. "If you hurry up, I will give you a ride on my way to the base."

"Sounds perfect." I said and then remembered the breakfast I had made for him downstairs. "Dad, I left your breakfast in the oven for you so it should still be hot."

He turned to me still smiling and said, "Thank you, Kimmy."

As he closed the door, I tore into the bags he had left for me. He had gotten me a simple short sleeve ivory blouse with navy trim where the buttons were and a beautiful navy beaded cardigan. The skirt he had bought was a gorgeous hand painted paisley circle skirt in navy and ivory. He even got me an ivory straw percher hat with a white feather which I placed on top of my loosely half pulled back hair. I quickly slipped on my bobby socks and black and white saddle shoes and ran down the stairs to do my signature twirl for him.

He was sitting at our table eating the pancakes I had left for him and stopped to watch me. He clapped his hands and said, "Perfect. You look absolutely perfect. You need one more thing."

I looked at him questioningly as he pulled something shiny out of his coat pocket. "This was one of your mother's favorite bracelets. I know that she would want you to have it." He said softly.

I looked at the schreiner bracelet in my hands. It was beautiful with blue and red jewels all around it. I slipped it on my arm and let a single tear escape my eye. My dad stood up and wiped it away. "Thank you, Daddy. I love you."

"I know, sweetheart. I love you, too. Are you ready to go so that you and I are not late for our first days?" He said trying to look serious.

"Yes. I am ready." I replied.

He grabbed my navy blue wool coat dress out of the closet and held it out for me. It really wasn't as cold here as it was in Maine, but I slipped it on my arms and buttoned it quickly. We walked out to the car together and I climbed in the door that he had opened for me. He drove me to the school and to my new world for at least a little while.

The school itself looked bigger than my last several schools. When we pulled up, there were students everywhere. I took a deep breath, turned to my dad, and smiled. "I will see you for dinner."

"Do you want me to just pick something up tonight?" He asked.

"No. I can handle schoolwork and dinner. Goodbye, Dad." I said with a smile as I climbed out of the car and headed for the school.

"Kim!" I heard from my dad's car. I turned around to look at him. "Have a good day. And Kim, stay away from the troublemakers, okay?"

I smiled and shook my head. You go on a date with one bad boy and your dad never lets you live it down. "Dad, don't worry so much. It has been a long time since Dylan. You have nothing to worry about with me." I said calmly. And then I followed my dad's eyes to see what he was looking at and saw a group of guys and girls hanging out around some motorcycles. I laughed lightly and added, "Really, Dad? I have to get to class."

I turned and walked into the school thinking how overprotective my dad is and how ridiculous it was for him to think that I would ever make that mistake again. I headed straight to the office ignoring all of the stares coming at me from all sides. I just had to make it through the first day in my new world and I knew that everything would be okay.

JACK'S POV(A few minutes earlier)

I was standing there with the guys when I caught the site of a new girl. I gave her the once over, but with that full coat on she looked way to prissy for me. It wasn't until she turned back around and looked over in our direction that something about her peaked my interest. I don't know what it was, but she definitely had a pretty face. This will be an interesting year with her here.

I was noticing that I was not the only one starring in her direction and quickly snuffed out most of my competition with a few dirty looks in their directions. There aren't many guys in this school that would go up against me or any of my guys because that would just be stupid on their parts. I would have to see if this new pretty face was worth any effort or not.

The bell was about to ring so I slowly started to make my way toward the school when I saw Brody jump off of his bike and walk straight into the building instead of over to the rest of us. I followed him into the building and saw him leaning up against some lockers across from the office. I followed his gaze and saw that he was starring at the new girl.

"Really, Man. Do you want me to take a picture for you? I mean it would last longer. Besides you can't even tell anything about her all bundled up like that." I said with a smirk.

"Please, Jack! I can tell enough. That coat is snug fitting in all the right places. She is going to be very popular around here." He said hitting me in the shoulder.

"I guess. We will have to see." I replied coolly.

We started to walk away to our lockers when three girls ran up to us and threw their arms around the two of us. Brody smiled and shook his head and me. "Jack, I have missed you so much." Donna squealed. "Why didn't you call me over the weekend?"

I put my hand on hers and unwound them from my neck. "I told you that we were over, Babe. I can't be tied down. I don't have time for it." I told her with a smirk.

Brody laughed lightly as he got the girl that was hanging on him removed as well. This only left Claire clinging to my waist. I removed her arms from me and said, "Claire, what are you doing?"

"Oh come on, Jack. You know how much fun I am and you know that you want to have more fun with me." She said with a crazy smile.

"Sorry, but no." I said shaking my head and walking off with Brody. "God, the girls around her are so desperate that it is really too easy. I'm kind of tired of them."

"We need a new challenge." Brody said walking backwards in front of me. "And here comes mine."

I looked over my shoulder to see the new girl at a locker and just shook my head at him. "Man, I am telling you right now that she is not going to be a challenge either."

"Why because no girl can resist your powers?" He said laughing.

"Yo, that was a low blow, Brody." Jerry said as he walked up to us with Grace under his arm. "We all know how sensitive Jack is about his powers of persuasion."

They both started laughing and I punched them both in the arm. "You are both idiots. Let's get to class and then maybe we can find a real challenge after school." I said walking ahead of them.

"Whatever you say, Jack." Brody said.

We all went to our classes. I had biology with Jerry, Brody, Eddie, and Sam. We all sat in the back of the room so that we didn't have to pay much attention. Everyone else was pretty much in the room waiting for the teacher when we got there. Our seats were empty and waiting for us.

As soon as I sat down, I looked up just in time to see the new girl glide into the room. Now that the coat was off, I could see her a bit better. She looked cute in her full skirt and sweater with a white collared shirt under it, but cute was not what I wanted. She sat down in at an empty desk in front of me. She did smell fabulous which was a vast improvement around here. Most of the girls around here put on way too much perfume and it makes you want to gage when you are around them.

Our teacher came in and gave everyone in the front row some papers to pass back to the rest of us. I waited for her to turn around so I could get a better look at her. She turned slightly and handed me the paper. She had a great smile on her face and her eyes were like huge doe eyes.

"Thank you….What's your name?" I asked.

She smiled at me and said simply. "You are welcome and my name is Kim." With that she turned back around leaving me slightly in shock that she didn't want more conversation with me.

I leaned forward and whispered in her ear. "My name is Jack. It is nice to meet you, Kim."

She nodded her head, but never turned back around. Maybe I was wrong, maybe she would be a good challenge. This could be an interesting year after all.

Please let me know what you think. I would like to keep this story going along with my other one, but I need to know if you like it or not.
