Big Time Sparks:
It's Not What It Looks Like
Kendall couldn't believe his awful luck these past two days with Jo and Jordan Sparks. First Jo catches him catching Jordan after she slipped on a banana peel. Then she catches Jordan sitting down to a table he prepared for himself and Jo after Jordan was practically mauled by a cat his idiot friends accidently tossed on her. Next she catches him and Jordan down a well they knocked Jordan down with a horseshoe and him falling down since James decided now would be a good time to let go of the rope to get the four leaf clover. And finally to make it all worse she catches him hugging Jordan goodbye. It was just one complete and utter misunderstanding after another.
Kendall wondered if someone had planned this, waited for just the perfect moment to send Jo by him, and make it look like he had a thing for Jordan. Which he doesn't!
Kendall called after Jo as she continued to briskly walk away from him. She had practically walked around the entire Palm Woods to avoid him and they were back in the lobby. Jordan and the guys were already gone.
"Jo, wait!" Kendall said. "It's not what it looks like!"
Jo stopped short suddenly causing him to nearly bowl her over. Kendall leaned around her making sure he didn't hit her.
"Are you sure?!" Jo yelled poking him in the chest. Kendall backed away one step at a time. "Because to me, it looks like you have a thing for Jordan! For the past two days every time I've you you've been with her! Please, explain! I'm dying to hear it."
"This is all one big misunderstanding. I do not have a thing for Jordan Sparks." Kendall said. Out of the corner of his eyes he saw Mr. Bitters, the hotel manager eating popcorn while staring intently at them. Kendall wondered if Mr. Bitters thought they were better than a TV soap. "She slipped on a banana peel," he checked them off as he spoke. "I caught her. She was attacked by a psycho cat and fell into the seat. I pulled it off and just sat down without thinking. The guys and I were fighting over a horseshoe I was going to use for our date and it slipped knocking Jordan down a well. The guys decided I was the best to go down the hole to get her but James let go of the rope and I fell. Today, all I was doing was hugging her goodbye."
Kendall sighed seeing her face waver slightly and decided to go in for the kill. "I don't have a thing for Jordan. I have a thing for you. Which I'm hoping you won't end here."
Jo saw Kendall smile in a way that made her heart skip a beat. It was an innocent but I'm really not innocent kind of smile. It was her favorite smile on Kendall. She wondered if he actually knew that since he seemed to use it on her a lot. Especially when he tries to get out of trouble. She wanted to believe him. She could see the sincerity in his eyes.
"You swear you don't have a thing for Jordan?" Jo asked sternly pointing a finger at him.
Kendall held his hands up in an I surrender sort of way. "I swear!"
Jo laughed softly and Kendall took it as a cue to hug Jo tightly. "Can we please have our date now?"
"Sure," Jo said softly. Out of the corner of her eye she could see Mr. Bitters face fall like he had been hoping for more drama, more of a fight between the two of them. But all Jo needed was one look in Kendall's eyes to know he wasn't lying. His eyes were so expressive. It's one of the reasons he's said he's a terrible faker, actor thing his eyes give him away. Something she was extremely happy for now.
Jo and Kendall enjoyed a beautiful sunny day out by the pool at the Palm Woods. Jo had spent the last day so upset with Kendall for spending all his time with Jordan when she should have just talked to him instead. Except for maybe while he was stuck in a well, then may not have been a good time to talk.
It was then she realized how deep she was in with Kendall. She had started off here not wanting a boyfriend. She just wanted to focus on work and leave boys until later more appropriate time but in came Kendall who wouldn't take no for an answer. He had somehow managed to worm his way under her skin and into her heart. There was a real possibility she could fall in love with him. Jo swallowed nervously as she looked at Kendall who had gone to get them a drink. He waved happily at her.
Ever since she had forgiven him the smile on his face wouldn't seem to go away. Jo swallowed again as her heart pounded in her chest. Oh, yes there was a very real chance she could fall in love with Kendall Knight. The thought terrified and thrilled her. There was one nagging thought though at the back of her mind. Her mother.
Great, she thought. Now she's going to have to endure the wrath of her mother. She's never going to let her me live this one down, Jo thought. I'll be hearing the I-told-you-so until the day they get break-up or get married.
