[A/N:]I still want to know: What do you think of Jared's POV? I don't know how much to put in. Still some in this chapter.

I'm going to put this up as quick as I can because my exams will be soon and I won't be on this at all so it won't be exactly how I want it until I fix it later (After 5th June) but it will be as close as I can get.

Also in this chap there is a twilight ref. but it is not at the right time. You will know what I'm talking about. I knwo Jared imprints before New Moon or even before that but he doesn't until slightly before Eclipse and it is going to be quite a long chapter.

Chapter 6

KPOV

"Kim, you have missed enough school and I know you're not happy here for ...because of, well, numerours reasons...so you should go back home. Take the car and you can come and pick us up whenever....we, ah, whenever we need to okay?" That was what my mother had said to me this morning while we were at my grandmothers house. She was still in hospital and I was going crazy.

I was driving home now and I couldn't wait. I didn't like Seattle, the most obvious reason being the murders that were taking place recently but that wasn't wasn't bigest reason, it wasn't because of the school work I had missed as I could easily get caught up and as much as I hated myself for it, It wasn't all to do with my grandmothers illness either. Although that was a big part, I couldn't feel happy in Seattle, I had no reason to. It was the same for my mother.

I couldn't wait to get away from the sadness because of how it depressed me, My granny and I were not very close, she was very forgetful and often got me mixed up with cousins and we had nothing in common. The reason that I really couldn't wait to get home because I wanted to see Jared. And I hated myself for wanting to see him when he was just so damn perfect and out of my league and I hated myself for wanting to see him when my family was in so much pain.

But I needed to see him. I knew how stupid that sounded, of course I did. I didn't know him all that well but I felt an aching pain in the pit of my stomach when I was away from him. It hurt like hell. It was always there eating away at me and the longer I was away the worse it got. I barely ate. I was going crazy, this obsession I had with him had to stop. I unfortunately didn't know how to stop it. I wasn't even sure that I believed that I wanted it to stop. That was the most pathetic part.

I drove for hours without stopping worring about my mental stability. It was not normal to like someone like this, not when you didn't really know them and especially not when they thought more of the dirt on the bottom of their shoes than they thought of you.

There wasn't much point in going home yet, I wouldn't see him until monday and it was only saturday. When I got home around 2pm I got changed and text Emma to get the work i had missed.

'Hey! I'm glad ur bak. hw r things?'
'Ok, been betr. wat did I miss?'
'lots. come 2 cafe nd I will tell u. my treat. meet abot 4?'
'Ok.c u then. xx =]'

I didn't normally go out but since I was on my own I could, I didn't have to saty and watch Sarah and Cody. I watched TV and then left for the cafe. I was there a bit early. I ordered a coke and sat down in a booth hidden from everyone else in the cafe thinking, of course, about Jared.

Around 2 O' clock I felt better. I didn't know why. It didn't feel like I had gotten used to it but the pain in my stomach had ceased a little. The itching to see Kim was still as strong as it was when I was around her. Then I realised that I was starving and Paul had eaten just about everthing in our house. That was the last time I would ever have him into my house. I text him complaining and he told me to meet him at the cafe and I told him that he was paying.

I walked into the cafe before 4 and I felt immediately better as soon as I entered it. It wasn't anything special, it was loud and there was a child crying non stop with a frustrated mother trying to calm her other two children running around and there was a huge spill along the walkway that hadn't been cleaned up yet. It wasn't really even nice it was just that it was really the only place around that you could go to, but it had such a calming effect on me, maybe it was because I knew that I was going to get food.

Paul eventually came in looking very smug, as he always did, he had the kind of ego that was always pleased with itself. I would never know why, there certainly wasn't any reason why Paul should be pleased with himself. He never did anything productive.

We ordered and he rambled on about something. I only listened to him when I heard him say 'Kim.'
"Wait what?"

He sighed and rolled his eyes at me."Kim's friend just walked in through the door." I looked over and a girl was standing looking around for someone, she spotted them in the booths and walked over to them out of my line of sight.

"Oh." I said. "Who's she with?"

"No idea." Paul replied. Our order was called and he went up to collect it. I sat thinking about Kim. I wanted to know where she was, how she was, what she was doing.

I didn't feel so bad in the cafe, it was busy so I went in unnoticed and sat waiting until Emma came in, she did and sat down across from me. After ordering I asked her what I had missed.

"So what did I miss?"

"Normal work, nothing important."

"So what was the 'lots' that you have to tell me?" I asked confused

"Well, Jared went into school on wednesday for half a day, he skipped all of his classes after geography, then he didn't come in thursday or friday." She gushed.

"Yea...so?" It wasn't like I didn't want to know this, I did, I was grateful for every detail but I didn't know what it had to do with me.

"Would you wait! Yesterday Paul came up to me and asked me where you were and I told him that it was none of his business, of course, but then he said that Jared and you had a project to do so I said you would be back soon." She was practically shouting.

"Right, yes, we do have a project, you know that. Why are you so excited?" I asked still confused.

"Well Jared obviously wanted to know when you would be back becasue he told Paul who asked me." She said exasperated now.

"Yea, we do have a project to do?"

"Kim! Do you really think that's all he wanted to know for?!" She yelled.

"Um yes? Unless he wanted to laugh at me for what happened or tell me that he was swaping partners or something."

"Maybe but..."

"Order 24!" That was us, I got up quickly so I wouldn't have to listen to her weird twisted views on what Jared thought or felt.

I was walking along the walkway when I saw that the floor was wet but I noticed this 30 seconds to late and had already slipped and was falling backwards. How wonderful. I braced my self for impact and a soaked backside but instead felt something firm and hot catch me around the waist and lift me away from the spill like literally by my elbow.

I was so surprised it took me a while to work out that I should turn around to see who it was that had miraculously caught me. When I did I saw the most perfect person in my world. Jared Talin. I very nearly fell again when I saw that it was him who had his arm around my waist.

I stepped back quickly and stupidly I might add and looked up at him. He looked happy, ecstatic and relieved.

"Wow. Thank you so much." That sounded so stupid. Nice one Kim.

"You're welcome." He said.

I wrenched myself from his gaze and walked up to collect the order. Should I have said something more? Why did he do that? Was he in here the whole time? Why was he so happy? When walking back down I cast a gaze at him and he was staring right back at me I blushed and looked around the rest of the room before hurrying to the table.

"WOW! Did you just see that? Jared just caught you and saved you from a wet ass!"

"Of course I saw it Emma it was me that he caught!" I said still blushing furiously. We talked alot more and I kept my eye on the door and didn't see Jared leave.

But then I got angry at myself and him. I was still upset over last tuesday. I practically screamed at him too. He must have thought I was a complete freak. I probably was but still, it wasn't like I wanted him to know that!

"I'm going to go now. Thanks for this you really cheered me up."

She nodded and smiled and followed me out before waving goodbye.

Paul was wolfing down half of the menu while I stuck to one meal, I was eating it when I felt a strange pull. I looked up and saw her, my Kim. She looked beautiful. The ache and itching immediately went away and I had never felt so happy in all of my life. I was so ecstatic I wanted to dance and I never danced.

She was walking along the walkway and I remembered the spill. She hadn't seen it. I immediately got up using all the speed I could muster without drawing attention and caught her before she hurt herself. She was so surprised, I just stared at her until she turned around. She seemed shocked by what had happened and thanked me.

"You're welcome." I would do anything for you. I silently added. She went up and collected her food. When she saw me staring she looked away. I didn't. I couldn't. I wouldn't. Not after not seeing her for over 3 days.

She hadn't left yet so I waited until she did. Paul was annoyed by my actions but turned it into a chance for more food which shut him up and kept him happy.

Then I saw her and her friend...Emma! That was it, get up and leave. I immediately followed. She was walking and had already fgot a fair distance but with my long strides I had quickly caught up with her.

"Hey." I said. How stupid! say something else! But I couldn't think of anything. I could only look at her.

"Hello." she said but kept walking. After what seemed like an eternity of silence as I watched different emotions cross her face she whirled around to look at me.

"Why did you catch me?" She asked in an almost angry tone.

"I, uh, would you rather I let you fall? You could have got hurt."

She looked confused. "Why would you want me not hurt? Wouldn't it have been more funny to see me fall?"

"Kim do you really think that I'm like that?!" I started shaking with anger, not at her but at myself for ever giving her that impression.

"Okay, Jared, Thank you for catching me. Goodbye."

"Wait...uh...um...what about the geography project?" I asked desperate to keep her talking.

"We can work on it monday and get it finished after school if we have to. Or I will if you can't or something. I have to go. See you."

Then she left. She didn't want me around so I didn't follow. Then I remembered Paul in the cafe. I should probably go back but decided to see if Kim got home alright instead.

Thanks for reading!
