KIM
There were many things Kim enjoyed. Having her sweet sixteen party and driving around in her new car (it was used but at least it was all hers) were just a couple of those things. Hanging out with Jack was one that stood out among all of them. They'd been best friends for the past two and a half years, ever since he moved to Seaford and they both joined the Bobby Wasabi dojo. She sometimes wondered if he heard her heart pounding furiously whenever they brushed hands or made eye contact. She wasn't used to having a crush. Usually guys just had a crush on her, and she went out with them just to have fun. But Jack was different.
He was kind, he was always making her laugh, and he was extremely loyal to her and her friends, J.E.M. (Jerry, Eddie, and Milton). They had grown so close the past couple years that now they knew so much about each other, which was precisely why Kim swallowed her feelings for him and focused on their friendship. Jack was pretty flirtatious with every girl in their school, but she had never seen any signs that he liked her back. So for now, she settled for just being friends.
JACK
He had awesome focus when it came to karate, but Jack had terrible focus right now, it seemed, as he and Kim were eating at Filafel Phil's. He was aware that she was talking, and he was supposed to be listening, but for some reason he kept staring at her face, trying to memorize every part of it.
"Jack? Uh, Jack?" Now he noticed Kim's face was confused. "Are you in there?"
"Huh? I'm sorry what did you say?"
"I asked you if you were paying attention, but your blank face says it all." She rolled her eyes, a disappointed look on her face. Jack, feeling terrible since he always listened to her, decided just to be honest. Ever since he met her, he had thought she was cute. As he got to know her, he developed a crush. Now his feelings had grown stronger, so much so that he would do anything for her, always protect her and be there for her. So that mixed with his old reckless actions made him finally make a move.
"I'm sorry, really," he said, turning on his "charming" voice. "It's just that I was getting lost in your eyes. He winked.
KIM
She rolled her eyes, not daring to believe he actually meant what he said. But she better get out of there before he saw her blush.
"Whatever, Anderson." Kim got up from her seat, her blonde hair covering her red cheeks. "I better be getting home, though."
"Let me walk you home, then."
She sighed, then smiled and nodded. It was much easier being nice than acting tough and mean. Jack rushed to the door and opened it for her. Kim gave him a bemused look, yet she was surprised by his sudden charm. As she walked through the door, he put his hand on her back, as though he were guiding her through. The spot where he touched her tingled even after he took his hand off.
"Quite the charmer today, I see," she remarked as they started walking home. She wanted to ask him why he was suddenly different tonight, but decided she didn't want to spoil the mystery. She knew he wasn't going to get her hopes up for nothing and just turn into a total tool bag. "Kinda like Ricky Weaver," she added out loud.
He sighed at the mention of the doll-haired pop star they met about a couple years ago. "Ah, yes. That was pretty awesome how you tossed him."
They continued talking about their adventures they had with J.E.M. and Rudy, their karate sensei until they almost got to Kim's house. The sun was just going down, and the light shown on their faces as they walked closely on the sidewalk, hands sometimes brushing. As they began to walk up the front steps to her door, he asked, "You know, every now and then I wonder why you still don't have a boyfriend."
"Maybe I just haven't found the right guy yet," she said indignantly, looking him straight in the eye.
"I think," said Jack, lowering his voice and leaning close to her, "it's because you have a crush on me."
Kim sighed, exasperated. Was he really bringing that up again after all this time? She thought they had an agreement to stop teasing her about that!
"For the last time, Jack, I do NOT have a crush –"
She was pleasantly interrupted, though, when Jack suddenly but gently pressed his lips to hers.
JACK
For a moment, everything disappeared except for Kim and himself. His head spun – or was it the ground? – as she kissed him back, and he felt her hands cling to his arms. He put his hands lightly on her slender hips, and he was just about to hug her closer when the world stopped spinning around him all too quickly. He opened his eyes to see Kim staring at him with a bewildered look on her face. He couldn't help but notice how the setting sun made her hair shine beautifully around her face.
He was stunned at the feelings swirling around inside him. Jack was starting to think he didn't just like Kim.
"I think I'm falling for you," he said quietly. There! It felt really good to say that, like he discovered a mystery and just unveiled the truth.
At Kim's sudden intake of breath, he began to worry she was going to slap him.
"You're not just saying that to get me to admit I have a crush on you, are you?" she asked just as quietly.
Jack blinked. That was not what he was expecting. He just shared something serious with her and she thought he was joking? His frustration had him throwing his hands up. "Oh, for the love of –"
Then it was Kim's turn to interrupt him with a kiss. He experienced the same emotion as before. When they broke apart, she whispered in his ear, "'Cause I think I'm falling for you, too." With that said, she quickly went inside, leaving him to stiffly turn around. As he walked down the front steps towards his house, he put a hand to his lips and smiled.
