Chapter Seven ~ Ambush.

*Kim's POV*

"I don't know... Maybe." He smiled taking my hand into his. I smiled back.

I had so many more questions to ask him, but he seemed lost in thought so i say nothing more. Strangely instead of figuring out something else to say I find myself leaning in. I couldn't believe what I was doing. I did have feelings for him, but after everything he had just done to me was I really up for a relationship with him? Was he ready to even have one? I went to pull back but he surprised me by leaning in too. He closed the gap quickly and our lips locked. I took a risk and deepen the kiss and strangely he followed my lead. The kiss was.. well how can I describe it but.. amazing. It latest for what seems like forever, and when it did end, I found myself not wanting it to. I opened my eyes to see a worried looking Jack. Was it not that good for him?

"Jack whats wrong?" I asked.

"It's just, I don't want you to..."

"Jack. Don't worry about all that." I cut in squeezing his hand.

"Kim I don't think that I'm ready..."

"Me either. Don't worry." I winked making him smile. Suddenly my phone burred out loudly singing my favorite Jam! Annoyed I picked it up and looked at who was calling me. "Crap it's my mum."

"Answer it then." Jack laughed. I do as I was told.

"Yes mum, ok I get it, I'm coming! Bye!" I snapped hanging up the phone. "Jack I have to go."

"It's ok, I understand." He sighed getting to his feet he held his hand out to me. I took his hand and also got to my feet.

"Say, Jack. Me and the guys are going for something to eat after training tomorrow. Want to join us?" I asked with a grin.

"Sure." He chuckled.

***A living nightmare***

*Jack's POV*

I followed the warriors to falafel phil's restaurant. Apparently the food isn't that great but I wasn't too sure on going to circus burger -due to the clowns- so they decided to go here instead. I sat in the booth next to Kim -making her blush might I add- and pretended to enjoy their conversations. One of the waiters came over and placed three of the drinks onto the table, he then left and came back with mine.

"There you go Jackie." He muttered placing the cup onto the table, his hand went a little too close to me and I quickly grabbed it. Everyone on the table went silent and Kim gave me a sidewards glance. I looked up at the waiter and upon not recognizing him I let him go. He quickly dashed off behind the kitchen doors.

"Jack?" Kim asked. I nodded and smiled trying to indicate that all was fine, but something wasn't right about that guy. For starters he called me 'Jackie', second he only waited our table and third did I really see something in his hand?

"So Kim see you and Jack are getting along much better." Milton exclaimed, hearing the sound of my name brought me out of my trance to look at the ginger haired boy. I smiled at him, but I had no intention in talking.

"You two kissed didn't you!" Jerry chuckled. Kim's face went bright red making me laugh.

"N..noo!" Kim tried to say but her face told it all. Everyone laughed at her. Finally dinner arrived breaking the awkward conversation.

***A living nightmare***

"Jack you coming to the skate park?" Jerry asked.

"No thank you." I waved heading in the other direction. I have had the feeling of being watched all night and I have now began to get annoyed of it. So I thought heading home early was the best choice. Plus I'd left my skate board at home and I just couldn't be asked to go home, fetch it and then come back.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow!" Kim calling running to catch me up.

"I can walk myself home you know." I chuckled.

"I know, but don't forget that I live this way, and I'm a girl... A girl who has no idea when it comes to skate boarding." She joked sticking her tongue out.

"Fair enough.." A slight sound catch my attention, fishing out a shuriken out of my jacket pocket I spun around and threw it at the guy holding the knife. The blade dropped to the floor, taking the chance I pushed Kim aside and did a spinning back kick. I landed a prefect shot in his chest sending him flying backwards. Once he was down on the ground, one punch was all it took to knock him out.

"Wow." Kim mouthed totally shocked. I shrugged my shoulders and went to take a look at our attacker. Sure enough, just as I thought, it was the waiter from the restaurant. Kim went to say something more, but some more faint noises caught my attention. He wasn't alone, others where coming. Grabbing Kim by the hand I quickly and quietly hid us in the safest location I could find.

"Shh.." I told Kim as she again went to speak. She nodded and kept her mouth shut. I watched as two silhouettes of two males appeared and helped the waiter to his feet. A third appeared and started looked around the alley. His eyes locked on our location making me hold my breath as his face came slightly into view. 'Please don't see us' I pleaded in my head. He turned around and headed after the others. I literally let out a deep breath and slumped against the wall, relieved they hadn't found us.

"Jack who, what.. why.." Kim blurred out too early.

"Other there!" One called. I pulled Kim further into the shadows and also hid myself too. One guy came close to me and I quickly pulled him to me and into the wall. He slumped into the shadows. Another followed and I did the same trick again, these guys seem quite dumb. Just as I went to take on the third I heard Kim yelp. I looked around to see one of them holding her by the hair. Finally the boss appeared in front of her holding the blade from earlier.

"Jackie. Come on out Jackie. Don't make me hurt her." He grinned holding the blade to Kim's neck. She closed her eyes and held back another scream. Taking in a deep breath I stood up and walked out of the shadows. In a blink of an eye the two men who where down, took a hold of my arms and pined me in a kneeling position.

"Jack!" Kim cried. I gave her a small smile trying to reassure her, but I was the one who needed that at the moment. The man from my nightmare came over and bent down so we where now face to face.

"It's been a while Jackie." He smirked holding the blade up so it gleamed in the light. Seeing the blade in his hand brought back all those painfully memories. He brought the blade to my skin and instinctively I flinched at the touch, half expecting it to carve my skin. His smile turned into a grin as he realized that I still remembered everything, and that I was indeed scared of him.

"All in good time." He winked taking the blade away. "Now lets go."

"Wait!" I yelled. He seemed surprise at my outburst. I maybe scared of him, but I'm not some weakling any more! "Let Kim go."

"Nah.."

"If you do I won't struggle one bit... I.."

"Jackie Jackie..." He teased. "We have you and as she witnessed it all, well.. we can't just let her go now can we? Especially not someone a good looking as her." I felt like I wanted to throw up and of course... I wanted to kill him! I do have feelings for her but I didn't know I had them this strong. Knowing that there was no way he was going to let her go I had one option, free her myself. Using all my strength I threw the guys holding my arms over my head. Bouncing to my feet I kicked them one by one aside. Using all the speed I could master I ran to Kim and attempted to Kick them off her. A blade came into my path scratching my side. I stumbled and came into the arms of him! He moved the blade to my throat and laughed.

"My my Jackie... You are defiantly stronger.. but as am I!" He laughed harder holding the blade closer to my neck. I gulped back the fear inside me and remained still. "Now as I said, Lets..."

"Jack? Kim? Whats going on here?" Rudy's voice called out. Quickly the blade was moved to my back and he held me by the back of the t-shirt so I couldn't escape.

"Say anything and this will go into you're back." He muttered.

"Just messing about Rudy." I fake smiled. Then an Idea came to me. "Say you're a third degree black belt. Show us some of you're moves!" I felt my t-shirt being let out and at the same time they released Kim, who came stumbling into my arms.

"Sure!" Rudy grinned proudly.

"Never mind Rudy." I chuckled as his face fell. "Christian and his gang where just leaving." Christian came over and leaned in close to me.

"This isn't over." He warned making the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

"It is for now." I glared. Thankfully they did as I predicated. Rudy is only one guy, but I knew that they wouldn't want to fight a black belt along with me. His little gang aren't that much of a match... Kim hugged me tighter making it a little hard to breath.

"You ok?" I asked. I felt her nod into my chest, clearly she wasn't. And that is the reason why I didn't want to get close to anyone anymore. I kissed her forehead and followed Rudy, who again was so lost in his own little world, that he didn't even seem to realize what had just happened.
