Chapter 4

Jack's POV

Today is the day my parents were going to meet Kim's parents. I'm currently laying on my bed being a nervous wreck. It's just that my parents are so different than Kim's parents. I don't see this ending well. Anyway, we're going to eat at Phil's at five and it's already four. I wondered how Kim was feeling about this so I got out my phone and started texting her.

J- What do you think about this dinner tonight?

K- Why are you so nervous about this? We're just going to Phil's.

J- But we're going with your parents, who don't like me!

K- Just calm down!

J- We need to cancel this dinner. I know something bad is going to happen.

K- We can't put this of forever. Our parents have to meet eventually.

J- Not really.

K- Yes they do Jack!

J- What if we ran away and moved to another state? Then it wouldn't matter if they met or not.

K- Be serious Jack.

J- Okay. See you in a few minutes.

K- Love you.

J- Love you too Kimmy.

"Jack, time to go," my mom yelled from downstairs. I got up and slowly walked down the stairs. I got into my car with my mom and dad and drove to Phil's. My parents have never eaten at Phil's before. I guess that's kind of weird considering I eat there all the time.

We went into the restaurant and Kim was already there with her parents. After our parents introduced themselves we ordered. Next came the part I was worried about. "So, are you okay with Jack and Kim dating?" Kate asked my parents. "Yeah. I don't have a problem with it," my mom told her. "You're completely okay with their relationship even though it is so serious?" Kevin asked.

"What do you mean by serious?" my dad asked him. "I'm talking about them claiming to be 'in love' with each other," Kevin said sounding annoyed. My dad turned to me. Not good. "Jack, you can't be serious," he said. "How can you say that you're in love? You're only 16." "I'm 17 dad." "Still, how can you say that? You're too young to make decisions that will have this much of your impact on your future."

"No I'm not. I'm in love with Kim and I am never letting her go. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me and I don't know what I would do if I lost her. And I don't care if you approve of us dating. I will end up with Kim no matter what." I looked at Kim. She was smiling at me.

"Clearly you two should not be together until you are more mature," my dad said. "I agree," Kevin said. "Jack was very disrespectful and immature when he came to dinner the other day." My dad looked angry. "Jack may be immature, but he is not disrespectful. I raised him better than that," my dad yelled. "Well obviously you failed at raising him," Kate said. "Who are you to judge whether or not we're good parents or not?" my mom shot back.

Soon the argument escalated into into a screaming war. I couldn't even understand who was saying what. I leaned over to Kim and whispered, "You want to head over to the dojo until their done?" She nodded and we got up. Our parents were to busy arguing to notice we left.

We went into Rudy's office and sat down on the couch. Kim leaned her head on my shoulder and said, "What are we going to do about this?" I kissed her forehead. "We're going to just keep dating like everything is normal," I told her. "But for the record, you probably shouldn't have done that."

She turned and looked at me, frowning. "What do you mean, 'You probably shouldn't have done that'?" "Well, you were the one who first brought up the whole 'meet each other's parent's at dinner' thing that led us into this situation," I explained. "My parents were only half the problem. Your parents are a problem too," Kim told me. "I guess you're right," I admitted.

"We probably shouldn't have done that."

A/N- Sorry it has taken me so long to update. I've been working on this for weeks but I had writer's block. I will be at camp all next week, so chances are this will be the last time I update until the week after next.
