First things first, sorry I didn't post yesterday. I was out all day and by the time I came home I was exhausted, but I do appreciate the reviews you guys are amazing! (: btw this story will seem like it's taking a different route, but I promise it's still a Jack and Kim story. KACK FOREVERRRR!

Jack's POV:

I sped down the hall and barged into Erica's room; she looked up at me and opened her mouth to speak, but I cut her off.

"BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING I NEED TO GET THIS OUT SO YOU'RE GONNA SHUTUP, SIT THERE AND LISTEN YOU GOT ME?!" I yelled out, as the door closed.

Erica closed her mouth and nodded, while signaling me to speak. This was something new. Usually she never let me get a word in otherwise.

"YOU ARE A COMPLETELY PHSYCHOTIC GIRL AND YOU NEED HELP! I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS. THE ONLY REASON I WAS BEING SO NICE BEFORE WAS BECAUSE I'M NOT THIS GUY. I'M NOT THE TYPE OF GUY TO YELL AT A GIRL LIKE THIS EVER, BUT YOU HAVE JUST PUSHED ME TOO FAR TODAY BY HURTING THE GIRL THAT I LOVE AND CARE FOR MOST IN THIS WORLD. YOU THINK YOU COULD REPLACE KIM? I DON'T THINK SO. YOU COULD NEVER BE LIKE KIM BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST TOO DAMN NEEDY. AND IF YOU EVER TRY TO HURT HER AGAIN I SWEAR TO GOD I'LL…." I tried to continue, but Erica interrupted with a deep sigh.

"Jack I'm sorry." Erica said with tears in her eyes. "But can you blame me? I know that you're this nice and wonderful guy, that's why I just never wanted to lose you. Look at the way my life has turned out? i don't have anyone Jack, and you were the one person that I thought I could trust until that day you broke up with me. What else was I supposed to do?"

I have known Erica long enough to know when she was fake crying, but in all the time I've known her she's never opened up to me like this before. I suppose this is partly my fault.

"Erica, I know that you've had a hard life, and I know you hardly see your mom, and I know your dad is a bastard for everything he did to you when you were little, but I can't be your hero. And you can't blame Kim for that. This is my fault. I didn't break up with you because you weren't good enough; I broke up with you because my heart belonged to someone else that whole time. And that person is Kim. "I said calmly while sitting at the foot of Erica's bed.

Erica continued to look down and sniffed. "I know Jack, I know. But you got to believe me when I say I was drunk and I didn't mean to hit Kim. I know I'm a bitch, but I mean I'm not a killer bitch. Do you think I can apologize to her?" Erica said while looking back up at me.

"Uhhh… Considering the way you treated her the first time you met her, and then hitting her with your car…probably not." I said awkwardly. "I'll pass on the message."

Kim's Pov:

I stared at Jerry blabbing his mouth to Rudy about something that neither of us could comprehend.

"It's like he's trying to speak to me. I know it." Rudy said as he stared at Jerry in a peculiar way.

I laughed through my nose and rolled my eyes as I looked to see Jack walk back in.

"Hey where were you?" I asked looking at him lightly.

"Oh I just went to make sure something was taken care of."

"Something or someone?" I asked

"Don't worry; you won't have to worry about her ever again."

"Oh really?"

"Yeah really." Jack said as he kissed my forehead. I blushed a bit and leaned into his chest, as he wrapped his arms around me. I know we're not a couple, but I just can't help but wonder sometimes.

"The doctors said I can be out sooner than expected." I said as I tried to move my head up.

"Great and I'm gonna be the one to take care of you." Jack said as he looked down.

I smiled and held on to him tighter.

Jack's POV:

I held on to Kim, as she squeezed me tighter. I love her, and I want to be there for her especially because I'm the one that brought Erica here in the first place, but I can't help but continue on thinking about Erica as well… Maybe I had her wrong all the time. Maybe she was different.

END OF CHAPTER.

Uh oh Jack, you can't possibly be thinking of that girl right? I mean you belong with Kim! Kim I say KIM! Lol

What do you guys think about Erica? Let me know in a review. (:
