Thank you soosoooo much for 71 reviews! When I saw I had 71, I literally screamed and I woke up my family. Alyssa was like, 'Are you crazy?' and I'm like, 'I got 71 reviews!' so Alyssa got surprised and wished she had that much on her story!

OMG! My favorite authors are noticing me, thank you!

And without further ado, here's chapter 4!

. . .

"Jack!" Mrs. Brewer yelled from the kitchen which made us jump. "Come help throw the garbage!"

Well, this is awkward.

"Uhh-I should go…" Without another word, Jack left the room. Now, I have something to write in my diary!

I grabbed my diary from the study desk and pulled out my lucky pen.

Dear diary,

I know I haven't written in a while. Well, that's because there was a surprise. Jack came back. He came back to the beach party I attended. Why did Kelsey invite him anyways? Jack expected me to forgive him. I saw him when we were playing Truth or Dare. First, Jessica O'Brien dared me to leave a hickey on Jerry's neck. But, then we both denied it. So, Jessica dared me to make out with Jack instead. And that's where we met again. After Truth or Dare, he asked me what's wrong so I gave him a lecture. I ran to the bathroom and came back a few minutes later. Then, I slapped Jack with all the pain he caused me. Now, I have to stay in his house while my mom is at Maine! And I have to stay here for 5 weeks! That's most of summer. Anyways, we just almost kissed. Until, his mom interrupted by telling him had to throw the garbage. And, he left. Phew. The past few days have been awkward…I also have to celebrate the 4th of July without my mom. We always spend it together! But, this is life.

Love, Kim.

I closed my diary and texted Grace.

To: Grace

From: Kim

Hey! Jack and I almost KISSED! OM to the G! LOL. Anyways, wanna go to the mall?

I went on the social apps while waiting. Then, I got a reply.

To: Kim

From: Grace

Seriously!? You need to tell me the deets! And sure. Meet me near Forever 21 in twenty minutes! Cya.

Great. Now, I don't have to stay here in the AWKWARD and silent house. No offense, though.

I changed into a plain yellow t-shirt with cut-out bows in the back and white high waisted shorts. Of course, my yellow Converse. I added an owl necklace and a bracelet. (Link on my profile!) I think I have every color of Converse. You know, the one-colored kind. I brushed my hair…I don't know a gazillion times? Hey, a girl needs their hair to look good! Then, I put it into a side braid.

I looked inside the closet and tried choosing which bag to bring.(A/N: In this story, Kim's family is rich. And, so is Jack.) I wanted to bring my Vera Bradley purse but I changed my mind and went for the Chanel purse. I'm kind of bipolar.

I skipped down the stairs like I did on the night Jack and I broke up…Why am I thinking about this? Jack and his parents were in the living room watching TV. Well, until they saw me.

"Where you off to, Kim?" Mr. Brewer questioned. Jack turned his body back to the TV.

"Umm…I'm going to the mall with my friend. I'll be back soon," I say. Mr. and Mrs. Brewer nodded their heads.

"Well, have a good time!" he said. Mr. Brewer passed me the keys to the house. I thanked him and headed for the mall.

Change of POV (Jack)

I can't believe it. I almost kissed Kim…I almost kissed Kim! The girl who hates me! Well, the truth is, I lied about me and Heather Clarke. I broke up with Kim because I was moving to New York. I just didn't want to tell her.

I walked back downstairs to the kitchen where Mom was sitting down. "Where's the garbage?" I ask Mom. She looked kind of sad.

She sighed. "There's no trash. Listen, honey. I need to tell you something."

"Wait, we're not moving back to New York, are we?" I hope not.

"No. Jack, have a seat," Mom sighed again. "Do you still like Kim?"

"Of course, I do. But, I had to break up with her with a lie because we had to move to New York!" I said.

"Honey, you didn't need to break up with Kim. Long-distance relationships work! That's why she doesn't like you now?"

"Yeah," I filled in Mom with what happened two years ago. "…and I told Kim she was a dumb blonde so she slammed the door in my face. After lunch, I heard her sing like an angel! I said she needed to forget the past and move on. But she said 'You want me to forget on how you called me a dumb blonde?' so we almost kissed until you called me!"

Mom realized what she did. "Oh, dear. I'm sorry. I didn't know you two were having 'business' up there." Mom put air quotations on 'business'. Dad came in.

"Who wants to watch American Breeds?" he asked. My dad loves dogs and wants to get one soon but Mom won't allow him.

"Me!" Mom and I said to cheer Dad up. We settled in the living room. A few minutes later, Kim came downstairs in an A-MAZING outfit.

"Where you off to, Kim?" Dad asked. I turned back to the TV so Kim won't see me.

"Umm…I'm going to the mall with my friend. I'll be back soon," she replied. It should be Grace.

"Well, have a good time!" Dad said, handing Kim the house keys. She thanked him and went outside.

"Wha-she's allowed to have the house keys but not me?" I complained. Ever since we moved here, I never took the keys with me when I leave.

"Jack, she's our guest. Besides, we might go somewhere so she won't be stuck outside." Dad answered.

"Okay…" I muttered. Mom went back inside the kitchen to bake cookies. I started falling asleep.

Change of POV (Kim)

I walked fast to the mall. When Grace says, twenty minutes, she really means it! She means it on everything. I started sprinting.

Gonna be late, gonna be late.

Finally, I made it to the mall. Luckily, Forever 21 was near the entrance. So, when I got there, Grace was looking impatient.

"You were supposed to be here 4 minutes ago!" she complained.

"Well, sorry. The Brewers' house is far from the mall," I said. She forgave me.

"Give me the details, girl!" Grace ushered me towards a bench. We sat down before I explained.

"Okay. So, after lunch, I went to my room and sang Perfect Two by Auburn (A/N: Winners are on the bottom. Good job, guys!) and when I was about to finish I heard a gasp. I locked the door but Jack was leaning against the wall. Then, he walked up to me and tried to make me forgive him. He also told me to forget the past! How can I forget on how he called me a dumb blonde!" Grace nodded in continuation. "Anyways, he took the guitar away from me and started leaning in. I didn't want to kiss him but my body couldn't move for some reason. Thank goodness, Mrs. Brewer called Jack. After that, I wrote in my diary on what happened then, texted you."

"Wow," Grace exhaled. "That's intense."

"Not really," I shrugged. "So, who wants to get new stuff?"

"WE DO!" Grace and I said in unison. People started looking at us so we burst into laughter.

We started in Forever 21. I got an outfit for the 4th of July and so did Grace. (I'll link it once it's the 4th of July for them.) I got more muscle tanks, two bandeaux, crop tops, and sundresses. Grace got bows, ripped shorts, tank tops, and bralet tops. I had two bags and Grace had three. Wow…. Next, we went to Brandy Melville! Brandy is my bestie. I got light washed shorts, more bandeaux, more crop tops, and hair accessories. Grace got a 'Stay Weird' tank top, bracelets, dresses, and skirts. In the end, I had…2…4…7…9 bags. And Grace had…3…5…6…8 bags.

"That was fun!" Grace exclaims.

"Yeah," I said as we walk outside. "Want to sleepover tonight?"

"Sure, why not? Let me call my Mom." Grace took out her phone and after a few rings, somebody answered. "Hey Mom…I'm good…Can I sleepover at Kim's house?...Thanks!...See you, tomorrow!" Grace's parents don't know that I'm staying with the Brewers.

"Now, I have to call Mr. Brewer." I took my phone out, and called the Brewer residence. "Hello…" It was Jack!

"What?"

"Can Grace sleepover? I have a king-sized bed."

"Let me ask Mom and Dad…" He shouted in a distance. "Hey Mom! Dad! Can Kim's friend sleepover?...Okay. They said sure."

"Whatever, bye." That may have been the longest conversation we had…well, exclude the almost-kiss.

"They agreed." Grace squealed. When we reached the house, I had trouble with the keys. There were at least 5! I tried the one that sticks out the most…gold. And tada! It worked!

"I'm back!" I said. The family was still sitting in the living room, munching on cookies.

"Here, Kim. Have some. Oh, and your friend too." Mrs. Brewer handed me the plate.

"Mr. and Mrs. Brewer, this is Grace. Grace, this is Mr. and Mrs. Brewer." I introduced while getting a cookie.

"Call me Mike or Todd."

"Nice to meet you, Grace."

"You too." Grace said.

"We'll be in my room." I put the plate on the coffee table. "Thanks for the cookies!" I notice Grace took four. I just took two.

"Okay!"

We marched up the stairs like we're in a parade. When we got to my room, we burst out into laughter.
