Jack's POV:
I don't know why I grabbed Kim's hand, but I was so glad when she didn't move away from me. I already feel like I have know Kim my life, but the scary thing is, I have only known her for about a week. My dad warned me about getting to close to someone to fast. There is always a possibility that we could move back to Denver. And if we did have to move back to Denver, I would consider staying with Kim or one of the guys.
"Are you okay Jack?" Kim asked interrupting me out of my thoughts.
"Ya, I am fine Kim. I am just thinking."
"About what, if you don't mind me asking?"
"Well, about us getting close so fast. My dad was saying that there is always a chance of moving back to Denver, and I was thinking that I would probably ask to stay with you or one of the guys," I said while looking into her beautiful chocolate brown eyes.
"Jack... If you needed to move back, you would need to. Even though I would miss you like crazy, staying with your family is the right thing to do."
"I don't Kim, I would miss you to much, and have you seen my family recently?" I asked jokingly. Kim looked back up to my eyes, and we broke into a fit of laughter.
"Come on, lets go get some ice cream," Kim said as I smirked.
"Race you there!" I yelled as I took off.
"HEY! Thats cheating!" I could hear Kim scream behind me, but I kept running towards the ice cream stand. By the time I got there, I was sweating from the heat. Kim then came right behind me and jumped on my back. I hooked my arms under her legs trying to keep her from falling. Her hands were around my neck as I looked up to her.
"Beat ya!" I said.
"SHUT UP!" she said while hitting me on the shoulder repeatedly.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow!" I yelled at each hit. By now, she was laughing her butt off. "I am glad that you think this is funny, but how about some ice cream?" I asked. In the corner of my eye I could see her nodding her head violently. I chuckled at this. "What flavor would you like?"
"I want chocolate, with rainbow sprinkles, and a cherry on top," Kim said.
"Ok then!" I said. I walked up to the man that was working at the stand. He was wearing a red work shirt and green, black, and white swim trunks. He had an apron on, which was covered in ice cream, and he was wearing a red visor that read "Ice Cream Man" in bold white letters.
"What can I get for you today?" the man asked.
"I will have an ice cream cone with mint ice cream, mixed with oreos, and a small amount of rainbow sprinkles on top," I said.
"Only a small amount!" Kim kinda yelled at me.
"Ya, you got a problem with that?" I asked her.
"Yes!" she yelled.
"Oh, and what would that be?"
"You are only getting a few sprinkles. If I were you, I would drench the ice cream with sprinkles!"
"Well sorry, but I rather not get too fat!" I said.
"Well then!" she yelled in defeat. I laughed at this.
"Here is your ice cream sir," the man stated, "and what can I get for the pretty little lady here?"
"Kim will have an ice cream cone with chocolate ice cream, TONS of rainbow sprinkles on top, and a cherry," I said to the man.
"Coming right up!" After a few minutes, the man finished making Kim's cone. "Here you go sweetheart!" the man said while handing Kim the cone while she was still on my back.
"Thanks," Kim stated as she got off of my back.
"Your total will be $1.50," he said.
"But I thought it was $1.50 for each cone. We bought 2 cones," Kim said.
"Yes I know, but I gave your for free." I knew this guy was hitting on Kim, and Kim actually didn't mind it.
"Well...thanks!" Kim stated.
"No problem! And here!" he said while handing Kim a napkin. When Kim received it, her face turned to shock. I saw the man smirk and wink at Kim. I clenched my fists and glared at him.
"Come on Kim!" I said while grabbing her hand again. When I felt her fingers grip mine, my muscles released a small amount of pressure.
"Jack?"
"Yes?"
"Why do you get so jealous all of the time?" Kim asked me.
"Because..." I started.
"Jack, you can tell me."
"Kim, you know that I like you, and it kind of hurt me to see you not mind that he was flirting with you," I ranted.
"Jack, we are not dating! And you don't control me. I can like whoever I want to! I can talk to whoever I want to! I can hang out with whoever I want to!" Kim yelled. I saw her eyes gloss over. Why am I always so stupid aroun Kim? She threw her cone in the trash can and stomped towards the beach. I decided to let her and I cool down, so I stayed back for a little bit. After a while, I walked down to the beach where she was sitting.
"Kim, I am sorry that I over reacted. I do need to learn how to control my anger, but the only thing is, I have never been jealous before. Yes, I have had crushes and stuff, but I have never been in this position with anyone before. Usually I don't mind if girls I liked talked to other guys, but with you it is different. I feel something more with you. I don't know if it is love, but I do not that my feelings for you are strong. I know that that is no excuse of why I over reacted, and I am sorry!" I said. I looked down at the sand as she looked at the waves.
"I am sorry too," she said. I looked up from the little tiny pebbles.
"Why are you sorry?"
"I over reacted about the whole getting jealous thing. I am so sorry!" she said. I lifted up her chin with my hand.
"Kim, it's just that I care about you so much. I don't want to lose you, so I got jealous. I have never had to deal with jealousy before."
"It's okay Jack. And just to let you know, I don't like that ice cream guy, I like you, and only you!" Kim said. I smiled at he as she smiled at me. I wrapped my arms around her petite waist and hugged her. My chin was on her shoulder as a rubbed her back soothingly. Her arms went under my armpits and around my shoulders. We stayed like that for a good 15 minutes before she pulled away.
"We should go get something to eat! I'm starving!" she said. I laughed at this.
"Ok, lets go!"
Kim's POV:
Jack and I are currently at Falafel Phils. We were sitting in a booth and talking about the most random things.
"Hey Jack?" I asked.
"Yes?"
"Since my parents went on that cruise, I am all alone with Ivory, and I was wondering..."
"You were wondering if I could stay at your house or you could stay at mine," Jack said. I nodded shyly. "Of course Kimmy!" I glared at him for that. "If it is okay, we should stay at your house because there are like 50 children over at mine!" Jack said completely exaggerating.
"Okay!" I replied happily as we laughed. "What if we invite the guys over?"
"That would be so much fun Kim!" Jack said. I smiled.
"Ok, I will call them when we go back to the houses."
"Ok."
Time Skip:
I was currently sitting on the living room couch, watching tv, bored to death. Jack and I just got home from lunch, and he is now over at his house packing for our fun 3 week sleepover! I was watching the show Dexter, even though it scared the crap out of me. After about 10 minutes, I heard the front door open, and Jack walked in with 2 bags. He only brought what he truly needed since his house was right next door.
"Hey Kimmy!"
"Don't call me that!" I yelled. He laughed as he put his stuff down on the floor.
"Did you call the guys?"
"Yep! Rudy, Jerry, and Milton are all coming over at 6, which is in an hour."
"Ok!" Jack said. "What are you watching?" referring to the tv.
"Dexter!" I said.
"Really? That is my favorite show!" Jack yelled as he jumped on the couch.
"Wow Jack!" I said. He didn't respond since he was so focused on the tv. After about 2 minutes, Jack stood up.
"It is just a re-run," he said glumly. I laughed at this. "Hey, isn't your sister supposed to be here?"
"Yes, but she met a new friend, and they are having a sleepover tonight, so we are alone."
"Sweet!" Jack yelled.
"I know right! NO SISTER FOR A NIGHT! YES!" I yelled. Jack looked at me and smiled. I smiled back.
"What do you want to do?" Jack asked after a while of silence.
"Do you want to go swimming in my pool?"
"Sure!" I walked upstairs to my room and grabbed a dull reddish/orange bikini that had blue, yellow, and green messy stripes on them. I went to the bathroom and changed, then I went downstairs. I saw Jack standing outside waiting for me. I had an idea! I ran outside quietly and attempted to push Jack into the water, but Jack somehow grabbed me by my shoulders as I looked into his eyes in fear. What was he going to do to me? All of a sudden, I am in the water.
"JACK!" I scream at him. I see him laughing next to the pool. Oh thats it! I swim over to him when he is not looking and grab his hand. I see him look at me, but I have a plan. I acted like I was getting out of the pool. I put my knee on the sidewalk and acted like I was trying to pull myself up while still holding his hand. It looked like Jack didn't catch on to my evil plan because he put his hands under my armpits trying to help me up. Thats when my plan was in the perfect place. I yanked on his hand making him fall head first into the water, and at the last second I pushed Jack with all my might and landed on the sidewalk. I smiled at what I did. Than I noticed something, Jack didn't come up. I saw him laying in the water lifeless. Before I knew it, I was in the pool again and trying to save him. I grabbed his armpits and pulled up towards the surface. Then Jack snuck his arms around my waist and spun me around so my back was on his chest. When we got to the surface, I turned towards him.
"What was that?" I asked.
"It's called acting Kim! Look it up!" he said jokingly. I glared at him.
"Said the person that totally believed my "trying to get out of the pool" act," I said with a smirk on my face. Jack's smirk left his face as fast as a lightning bolt. I laughed at this.
"I give up!" Jack said in defeat as I kept laughing at him. For the next half hour, we played around in the pool until the doorbell rang. I got out of the pool leaving Jack there. When I opened the front door, I was bombarded with 3 faces. Jerry was standing on the left, and he was wearing an orange mens tank top with black sports shorts, and vans on. In the middle was Rudy who was wearing an elbow lengths blue long sleeve shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes that looked pretty beaten. And on the right, Milton was standing there wearing a white t-shirt, a black jacket, black skinny jeans, and vans. A few years ago, Milton was a huge nerd, but now he is actually pretty cool. He wears really cool clothing and everything.
"Yo what it do Kim!" Jerry said.
"Hey Kimmy!" Rudy said.
"Hi Kim," Milton stated.
"First, hi guys! Second, do NOT call me Kimmy! And third, come on in!" I said. They barged in and saw that I was in a bikini and Jack was in the pool. They all quickly split up and ran into different bathrooms. About 5 minutes later, they all came running back. Jerry was wearing black swim trunks like Jack, Rudy was wearing blue swim trunks, and Milton was wearing blue swim trunks that went light blue, dark blue, light blue, dark blue, and so on. They all ran outside and jumped into the pool. I laughed at their antics. When I got outside, they had started a splash war, so I joined in. It lasted for about an hour before everyone got tired of it.
"Hey Kim?" Jack asked.
Ya?"
"We should order the pizza now!"
"Okay! Come on guys." They all ran inside and went to the bathrooms to shower and get dressed into their pajamas. Jack and I stood there not knowing what to do.
"Come on Jack, you can have my bedroom and I will take the bathroom, then we can switch," I said to Jack. He nodded and we walked upstairs.
"Or, I can just go to my room!" he said.
"Ya, you can do that!" Jack then climbed through the window to his house as I went into the bathroom to take a shower as Jack took his.
Time Skip (Rudy's POV):
I just got done finishing my shower when I walked to Kim's living room. I saw that Jerry and Milton were laying on the couch bored to death.
"Hey guys!" I said.
"Hi!" they said together.
"Is it just me, or do you think that Kim and Jack seem very comfortable around each other?"
"Ya, I saw that!" Milton said.
"Yo! I have an idea!" Jerry yelled.
"Well thats a first!" Milton stated as we laughed at that.
"Hey!" Jerry stated. Milton and I just kept laughing.
"Anyways, what is your so called "idea", Jerry?" I asked.
"Well, why don't we play truth or dare, and try to make them admit their feelings or kiss!" Jerry stated.
"Thats a great idea!" I yelled. Jerry was smiling.
"Ya, so when they come downstairs, we will-" our plan was interrupted by Jack and Kim walking in.
"So, what do you guys want to do now?" Jack asked.
"How about truth or dare?" we all said. Jack and Kim looked at each other then shrugged.
"I will get the bottle," Jack said as he walked into the kitchen. He walked back in with a glass root beer bottle. We all sat in a circle as Jack went first. The bottle landed on Milton.
"Ok Milton, truth or dare?" Jack asked.
"Truth!" Milton said.
"Why do you like school so much?"
"Because you get to do the coolest stuff ever! I get to do math and science and Language Arts! It is all so awesome!" Milton said cheerfully.
"You're weird!" Jack stated as the rest of us nodded in agreement. Milton then spun the bottle and it landed on me.
"Dare!" I said.
"Ok, I dare you to lick Jerry's foot!"
"Ewwwwww!" we all yelled.
"But you have to do it!" Milton said. I shrugged then licked Jerry's foot. The moment my tongue left his foot, I got up and ran to the bathroom. They all laughed at my antics. Once I finished cleaning my mouth, I went back and spun the bottle and it landed on Kim.
"Kim, truth or dare?"
"Truth!" Kim stated.
"Do you like Jack?" Kim and Jack looked at each other. Kim blushed and Jack gave her a look. I couldn't make out what the look was saying, but I knew that it was something important.
"As a friend!" Kim stated smiling as she hugged Jack.
"But do you like him more than a friend?" I asked.
"Hey, only one question!" Kim yelled. I looked at Milton and saw that there was no use in playing anymore. Kim and Jack could get out of any question.
"I give up! Lets watch a movie," I said. Everyone agreed and we walked to the living room and decided to watch Mama. Kim was the only one that didn't want to watch it, but Jack got her into it, and she said yes.
Kim's POV:
Right now, I am currently sitting on the couch next to Jack watching Mama. I really didn't want to watch a horror movie, but Jack begged me, so I said yes. Rudy was on the chair, and milton and Jerry had made a bed on the floor.
It was now dark outside and I was so scared that I was hugging Jack for dear life. Every time a scary part happened, I would scrunch my eyes closed, and when they were over, Jack would say that it was gone and he would kiss my forehead. One time, I was scared so much that I screamed and ran upstairs. I ran to my bedroom and hid under the sheets as I let tears fall from my eyes. I heard Jack come in and lay next to me. He pulled me closer and whispered soothing things into my ear. He kissed my tears away and we cuddled as midnight drew closer. The last words that I heard that night were...
"I love you Kim, and I always will no matter what happens." As badly as I wanted to reply, I was already drifting off into a deep slumber.
And at that moment, I swear we were infinite!
