I have not written anything for a while since I have been busy. So I've decided that I will write a couple of short and cute Kim and Jack Drabbles every week or so. Nothing too long just short stories that have no relation to each other.
Here is the first one.
Love's Equation
"Please, Jack. Please!" Kim pleaded. She was asking if I could help her study for an algebra test over the weekend. That seemed to be the one area where Kim struggled in school.
"I don't know," I said. "I am a little busy this weekend."
That wasn't really true. The real reason I didn't want to help Kim was the fact that every time I spent quality time with her I start feeling really close to her. I just want to plant a kiss on those gorgeous lips of hers, but I can't. I don't want to jeopardize our friendship by kissing her.
"Why don't you ask Milton to help you. He is much better at school stuff than I am," I said.
"Milton is so confusing! Every time I ask him for help on any thing he start babbling about the stupid details that are completely unrelated to our tests."
I sighed.
"Please," she asked with a cute, irresistible puppy dog face. I couldn't say no.
I smiled. "Sure, why not."
"Yay!" She gave me a hug. "See you on Saturday."
Great, I thought to myself. Now I have to spend hours with Kim trying not to think of how beautiful she is or how much I love her. No, I have to sit down and teach her how to solve her math problems, pretending that I don't think of her as more than a trustworthy companion.
Saturday, I went over to Kim's place and tried to explain the concepts of inequalities. It wasn't going to well.
"Why is algebra so complicated!" Kim yelled.
I tried to calm her. "How 'bout we try something a little more simple."
Kim nodded. "Can we do something with out quadratic equations?"
"Sure," I said. I tried to think of a problem to give her, but I was too distracted. Kim looked so adorable when she was frustrated. Then it hit me, the perfect problem that might give Kim a confidence boost and might get rid of the heavy feeling in my heart. I started to right the problem down, but I was nervous. What if this did ruin our friendship? I decided to take the risk, and I wrote down the problem of love:
2i+3 is less than 6u+3
"Solve for 'i'," I said.
"That's easy," Kim said. "First you subtract from both sides."
She subtracted and wrote down: 2i is less than 6u
"Then you divide by two and you get i is less than 3u," She smiled with confidence.
"That's right," I said. I could feel my cheeks burning.
"Jack, you're turning red. Everything alright?" She asked. Then she looked at her answer again. I could see her piecing it together in her head.
i is less than 3u, she thought. I heart you! Oh...
She blushed, and she asked me, "Do you love me?"
I looked down and nodded sheepishly, "Well, I guess I better get going." I start heading towards the door, but Kim rushed in front and blocked me. She stood slightly on her toes and kissed me.
"I is less than 3 u too." She winked.
Grinning, I cupped her cheek, and we kissed for who knows how long.
I wasn't able to use the less than symbol :/. So what did you think? :)
