Two in one day...Awesome. Enjoy….
After dinner, Kendall helped Mrs Buttowski clean up, "dinner was lovely Mrs Buttowski, thank you very much for having me." She said gratefully. "Oh you're welcome dear." She said. She smile, "It's late, I have to get going, my dad will get worried." "I understand, Kick will walk you home." She said.
They walked home in silence. Kick kept thinking if had pushed things too far when he kissed her. He didn't want it to affect their new found friendship, as she put it earlier today, so he decided to break the silence, "So you got into Harvard." He looked down at the pavement. "Yes, I received my acceptance letter earlier today" she replied shyly. "Congratz, so when are you leaving?" he asked. "Boy Clarence can't wait to get rid of me. Can you?" She mockingly asked "That's not how I meant it." He said in disbelief. "I'm kidding, I know, I know anyways I leave a week after graduation." She said. "I bet you're going to be the valedictorian." He added. She smiled, "I don't know, I have a lot of competition." "And you'll win hands down." He said. They continued to walk in silence. "Don't you have this huge stunt coming up before home coming?" she asked. "Keeping tabs on me I see." He said smiling. "Oh don't flatter yourself Clarence." She deadpanned. "I'm kidding, but yeah I do. Gunther and I have been planning it for weeks now." He explained. "So what is it?" she asked curiously. "It's a secret, but I will tell you it involves my dirt bike and Dead mans drop." He said smiling. "That sound dangerous." She said concerned. "Well danger is my middle name." he said cockily. "I thought it was Francis." She laughed. "Not funny Perkins, not funny." He nodded. They reached her front door; "Thanks for walking me over" she said opening the door. "Goodnight Kendall" he whispered. "Goodnight Kick" she smiled closing the door behind her. She leaned against the door taking in the days events, smiling. "Kendall, sweetheart, is that you?" her father called out. "Yes dad, it's me." She answered. "There's a letter that was dropped off for you not too long ago. You'll find that I left it on the counter." Her father informed her. "Thanks dad." She said taking it up to her room.
She got ready for bed, then she re-reads her acceptance letter from Harvard, I can't believe this is finally happening she thought. "I wonder who this could be from" she mumbled to herself while ripping it opened. As she read the letter a frightful look fell over her face. She put down the letter, "what the hell?" she said getting up and pacing in her room. Stay away from Kick or else! "Ronaldo, you son of" She picked her phone and dialled his number.
"What the hell you jerk. Or else what?" she asked infuriated. "Kendall, how could you do this to me?" Ronaldo asked. "You think that's an excuse to threaten me?" she asked. "Well if it gets you to stay away from HIM" he snared. "You can't tell me who I can or cannot see. Nobody does. So why don't you get off whatever you're on and stay away from me." She demanded. "You listen to me Kendall; it's not you who'll get hurt. I know you're inlove with him; I've known for some time now. I've never stood a chance with you. So even if you don't want anything to do with me, you have to stay away from him. I'll do anything to stop this, ANYTHING. I won't lose to that Neanderthal again, especially you." He threatened. "Oh my God Ronaldo, just listen to yourself, you sound like a deranged person." She yelled. "I assure Kendall, if you don't stay away from him, let's just say he might have a little accident." He threatened. "I'll go to the police." She said confidently. He laughed, "Just try, falsely accusing someone could have major consequences especially for Harvard, if you catch my drift." He smirked. "You son of a.." she was cut off by Ronaldo. "Watch it Kendall. Do what I say or lover boy gets it. This conversation is over. Goodbye." He said then hung up. Kendall slumped onto the bed sobbing over thinking the situation eventually she fell asleep.
The next day, Kendall thought of not going to school to completely avoid Kick, but she had a biology test and a student meeting. She knew Ronaldo well enough to know that he wouldn't go this far if he wasn't serious and the fact that he hates Kick. "This is going be awkward." She mumbled as she made her way into the bus. "Hey Kendall" her friend called out. She simply smiled and sat beside her. When they reached the school, she saw Kick, Gunther and Jackie standing at Kicks bike, taking. Kick saw her walking so he called out to her, but she rushed into the hall successfully avoiding him. "This is for our own good Kick" she mumbled and made her way into class. During class Kick kept glancing over at Kendall, trying to get her attention, but to know avail, she just continued to ignore him. Kick thought that this had something to do with that kiss last night, which made no sense because they were fine when he walked her home last night. He hated being ignored so he made it his mission to confront her.
During the first brake, he called out to her in the hall, but this time she entered the girls' bathroom. "What the hell?" he cursed. "She can't stay in there forever. He thought to himself. "Kick, don't forget we have your practice run later." Gunther reminded him. "You're really hung up on her" Gunther winked. Kick dropped his head and walked away. "If you need me, you can contact me on my cell" he said before walking out. He made his way to their secret place and spent the afternoon their. He made his way home, knowing that Kendall wouldn't show up this late. He walked home thinking about the chance the he blew with Kendall. If that was the closest he could get to her then it was worth it.
The following day was the same. "Hey, sweety now that Kendall doesn't need extra credit, that's probably why she's avoiding him." Jackie told Gunther. "But don't you think that's a little weird for her to avoid him like the plague. It's not the Kendall I know. She sees everything she does through. Something's up" Gunther said. "And we're going to find out." Jackie added. "We make a good team you know that my sugar plum." Jackie told Gunther. "Yes we do." He replied.
Kendall didn't show up at school. She knew that it would be impossible to avoid Kick two days in a row, so called in sick. When Jackie got wind of Kendall's absence, it cemented their theory of something's up.
Thursday, Kendall decided to walk to school. She needed to draw up a plan to avoid Kick. To her surprise Kick wasn't at school. She was greeted by Jackie, who was waiting for her at the gates. "Good morning Kendall, How are you feeling, I heard you called in sick, did you go to the doctor, what did he say, I also heard you are avoiding my pal Kick. We're friends, so what's up"" Jackie interrogated the poor girl. "Look Jackie it's personal." She said. "Come on Kendall, have you seen how miserable you're making Kick. He hates when people ignore him." Jackie pleaded. Kendall sighed and pulled Jackie into the corner, "Look Jackie, I am walking on eggshells around Kick right now and it's best to for the both of us if I away from him." She explained. "Kendall I don't understand, it seems to me like you're being blackmailed." She said. "What? don't be silly Jackie" she said looking away. "Look, Kendall, Whatever the reason, I think you should tell Kick the truth, he deserves that much." She said. "It's not that easy Jackie." She sighed. "Kick is a really great guy, try talking to him, he might surprise you." Jackie said walking away. The entire day Jackie's words played on her mind. It was driving her crazy, talking to him would risk their lives but avoiding him is making her life a living hell. She needed to get away from the school so she ran to her hideout.
She lay facing the sky, appreciating the peace and stillness. She heard the bushes shake and quickly stood up. She slowly made her way up to the hedge and leaned up against it to see who it was. Just then out of now where, a hand covered her mouth and pulled her back. She was panicking, "Shhh, it's me, I'm going to let go now, please don't scream. Nod if you understand. I think someone followed me here." Kick said releasing her. "What the hell Kick? Do you want to scare me to death?" she hissed. "What part of shhh don't you understand?" he hissed. The bushes rattled again, so Kick pushed Kendall against the hedge and leaned up against her. She felt her heart pounding in her ears, being this close to Kick was driving her crazy, all she needs is to lean in and taste those soft sweet lips again. Get your head out the gutter Kendall she mentally kicked herself. "Good they're gone." He said looking at Kendall.
"I, I , I'm sorry I startled you." He said looking down at her lips then back into her eyes. He leaned and captured her lips, she didn't fight it, instead she played with hairs on the back of his neck. He snaked his hand around her waist, running his hand up and down her spine causing her to moan into his mouth. Kick deepened the kiss, causing her moans to get louder. After what seemed like hours, they pulled apart. Panting, "What was that for?" she asked breathlessly. "I don't know, it felt like the right thing to do." He smiled. "And I'd like to do it again" he said leaning in to kiss her. She placed both he hands on his chest to prevent him from coming closer, "Wait Kick. We need to talk." She said sliding her hand down to hold his. "What's going on?" he asked concerned.
"Something happened that night we kissed, after I went home, I received a letter. It said that if I continued to see you that something bad will happen to you and they would make sure I never see Harvard. I tried to call his bluff but Kick he means business." She said in tears. "Ronaldo, that son of a.." Kick was cut off by Kendall. "Look Kick we'll only get into trouble if we.." she managed. "You don't understand, he was the one following me." He said. "I'm going kill that geek." He threatened.
