This is a 3 book in my "series". You have to read the other one's to understand. All of the other characters will show up later, so don't worry.

I quickly walked over to Jack, with what Annabeth had just said still in my head. I didn't know if what she said was true, but I guess that it was worth a shot. Jack was surrounded by the guys so I knew that I couldn't ask him there. While the others were busy laughing at Jerry I walked up to him. "Jack can I talk to you some where later?" I whispered in his ear. He looked worried and confused, but nodded his head.

"We can meet at the park at 12?" He asked. I smiled and nodded.

In the park

Jack's P.O.V

I was a bit worried. I hopped that Kim was okay. I was sitting on bench thinking this when I saw her coming towards me. I stood up when she got closer. She smiled and then we both sat down on the bench together. We sat there in peaceful silence for a few minutes. Finally I had to ask. "Kim are you okay?" I asked, my voice filled with worry.

"I'm not sure. To be honest I'm a bit nervous," she said looking down at the ground. I instinctively moved closer to her, and put my arm around her shoulder. I hated seeing her this way. What she did next surprised me. She leaned in to me and put her head on my shoulder. "Come on Kimmy. You can tell me anything." For calling her Kimmy I figured that I would get punched in the shoulder, but she didn't move.

"You know this was stupid. I'm sorry that I brought you out here," she said slowly moving away from me. I don't know why, but I didn't let her go. I get my arm tight around her. At first she looked shocked and then smiled. She soon returned to our original position. We sat there in silence again for a few minutes. This time I decided that she would tell me, whatever it was, when she was ready. "Jack I really like you," I heard someone say all of a sudden. I looked around trying to figure out who it was. I then heard it again. This time I looked down at Kim, but she hadn't moved. I was about to ask her if she had heard it when she sat up. "Jack, I really, really like you." This time she said it straight to my face. I was so shocked that I couldn't move. When I didn't move Kim started to pull away. This time I pulled her straight to my face, until my forehead was touching her's. She looked slightly nervous. "I like you more, I bet," I said still staring into her eyes. She soon smiled. I did to and then did something totally unexpected. I kissed her.
