Hey guys! Please don't kill me! I've had this massive case of writer's block. Every time I start a story, I never can finish it. I'm really sad to say this, but this is the last chapter. :'-( I'll write a one-shot every once in a while, but for right now, I just don't have the inspiration nor the time.

Before I start crying, here is the last one-shot of this collection dedicated to the guest who gave me the idea of a story based on the song, Speak Now, by Taylor Swift. I didn't add all of it in to the plot,but I hope I did you justice. Presenting:

Speak Now

Kim's Point of View

Sadness. That's the first emotion I felt when the announcement was made about Jack's wedding with Heather. I should've interfered; I should've done anything to stop this, but no, I was too much of a chicken. I didn't think they would last, but somehow, they managed.

Heather wasn't the right person for him-she never was. I've seen her bring guys in the janitor's closer or in her dorm room at college; I've watched as she flirted with other guys in front of Jack. Whenever I tried to tell him she wasn't good for him, he would always find some way to argue and tell me that she was perfect. Which was exactly what he was doing now.

"I think you're making the wrong decision!" I yelled.

"If I was making the wrong decision, why would I propose to her in the first place?!" Jack shouted.

I sighed. He's too stubborn, and this obviously wasn't going to be easy.

"I know you don't love her," I stated. "I see the way you look at her, and it's everything but love. You may think you have true feelings for her and that she's the right one, but she's not! You know it's true even if it took you until now to realize that! You need to get that into your thick skull, Jack! You might think she's perfect, but she's not the girl for you. She's not the right person for you, and she's definitely not the one you should spend the rest of your life with!"

"Then, who is?!" He exclaimed.

Here goes nothing.

"Me," I murmured.

"Who?"

"Me okay?!" I blurted. "You belong with me! I'm in love with you, Jack! I have been since the seventh grade, but I've been too much of a scaredy cat to make a move! Every time you talked about Heather, every time I saw you guys together, every time you came to me advice about her, you never saw my true feelings. You knew I loved you, but you still went for her, and that's what makes my heart break even more."

"Kim-"

I cut him off. "Don't say anything. Please just don't. I needed to say that just once before you're with her for forever. I just needed you to know. What I don't need is you telling me you can't be with me because I know that's just going to make me crumble even more. Please just don't."

Minutes passed like a ticking time bomb waiting to happen, but neither of us spoke a word.

"I'll still go to the wedding," I whispered. "I won't be happy, but I'll do it for you because I know how much it means to you, and I don't want to let you down. Even if you don't realize it, I'd do anything for you, Jack... Even if it means putting up that fake smile when you're newly wed. Even when I know it's not right. But no matter what, in the end, you'll always be my best friend. You always have been. I'm doing this for you, Jack."

A tear slid down my cheek as I slammed his house door behind me.


I stood there staring at my waiting doom. I reluctantly stepped through the door of the church when I heard a familiar voice in a nearby room. Heather. She went completely ballistic at her bride maids, and I raised my eyebrow as I heard the words, "Wrong fabric! You ruined everything,and you ruined my wedding!"

I rolled my eyes. Typical.

I quietly took a seat at the end of the pew as I saw Jerry and Milton sending me sympathetic looks from the altar. I returned it with a tight smile glancing at anything that would make the time go longer.

Across from us, I saw a glimpse of Heather's family in their designer pastel outfits. They were focused intently on tapping away at their phones ignoring the world around them.

I mentally snorted. Of course. They care more about status updates instead of their own daughter's wedding.

I looked away with my mind reminding me the reason I was in this church in the first place. I tried thinking of something else, but nothing worked. My mind was always going back to him. I even lost myself in a reverie where I was the one in the wedding dress, but I knew it wasn't real. Some dreams just can't and won't come true.

I found my eyes staring at Jack, but he was already studying me. I could tell there was regret in his eyes, but he was sending that sorry expression of 'I'm sorry, but there's no turning back now.'

I turned to face the entrance as I heard that horrendous music being played on the organ. Heather walked graciously in her father's arm before she saw me. Obviously, Heather wasn't fond of me, and the only reason I was invited was because of Jack. She glared at me before returning to her happy facade. It was only seconds away before my heart would completely break apart as Heather took Jack's hand.

The wedding passed by quicker than I hoped it would until the I Dos. Heather, of course, easily said those two words, but it seemed that Jack had trouble doing so. He stayed silent as everyone looked at him expectantly. Heather and her parents glowered at him to say the impending dreadful words. 'Please don't do say it,' I silently begged.

"I uh," he stammered out while glancing at me, "I-I."

He sighed before turning back at Heather once again. "I do."

Her parents smiled approvingly, and Heather smirked at me triumphantly.

Realization hit me like a ton of bricks. It's over. He's never going to be mine. I'll never be able to have him. His heart has already been given away to someone else.

I felt a stab in the gut, and suddenly, I fell apart. Tears stung my eyes, but I didn't let them fall. The last thing I wanted was to strike a scene.

I completely forgot about the objection until my head propped up at the priest's words of, "If any man can show why they may not lawfully be joined together, speak now or forever hold your peace."

This was my chance. It went completely hushed until I nervously stood up.

Oh my gosh, I'm actually doing this.

My hands were constantly shaking and were sweaty as I wiped them at the hem of my dress. I may have physically felt and strike as uneasy and hesitant, but I confidently spoke the next words that would determine my future. "I object."

I ignored people's gasps and judgmental stares; I needed to do this.

"Jack, please," I pleaded. "Please don't do this. Don't you remember what I said yesterday? Doesn't that mean anything? I need you; I love you. You and I both know this isn't the right decision. You may love Heather but not in this way. I can't go through the rest of my life knowing that I could've stopped this. That I could've stopped you from making the worst choice in your life. Please, you can't marry her."

A droplet finally fell to my cheeks as I whispered, "Please."

Jack's eyes bored into mine as if saying, 'I'm sorry,' and turned back to Heather. She gave that once again victorious smirk, and I embarrassedly took my seat again. I still felt all eyes gawking at me which made it all the more worse. I just wanted this to be over.

Jack's Point of View

Am I really going to do this? Marry the person I truly don't love? What about all the times Kim has been there for me and Heather hasn't?

I thought about all the moments with Kim and compared it with Heather. Sudden realization hit me. What am I doing? I can't do this. I'm in love with Kim.

I couldn't stand to see Kim so depressed, but I couldn't just leave with her and let everyone down. I hesitantly turned from Kim to Heather.

Heather smirked and said, "She's so stupid to think she could steal you from me."

It was as if she triggered something in as I disdainfully responded, "Don't you ever talk that way about Kim. She's better than you could ever be. She wouldn't talk about anyone like that."

She smiled, "Then, why are you marrying me? You chose me not her."

I grinned. "I'm not. It wasn't a choice in the first place."

"What are you saying, Jack?"

"I'm saying I made a mistake."

I feel as if the chains had finally freed me. I suddenly knew what the right thing to do was. I faced the crowd and announced, "I made a mistake everybody."

Kim's Point of View

I tilted my head up at his familiar voice. What is he doing?

"I made a mistake everybody," He announced.

Everyone gaped at him as his eyes peered into mine. "I'm marrying the wrong girl, and I was too afraid to say that earlier. I'm a coward because I should've said no. I shouldn't have lied to you guys, and I am completely and utterly sorry. Someone finally stood up to me about Heather, but I never believed her until now. I should've done this a long time, but I admit that I'm in complete love with Kim Crawford. I'm really sorry to those of you who came and expected a wedding, but now I guess that can't happen. I can't make the wrong decision."

My eyes softened, and a small smile graced upon my face.

Heather seemed to finally understand as she interrupted, "I always knew you had a thing for her. I was just too jealous to admit that. I hope you guys are happy with each other."

She stepped towards me. "I'm sorry, Kim. I apologize for being so mean to you for the past years. You really do deserve him, and I don't want to step in the way of that."

I gave her a slight hug before she walked out the door finally smiling. I guess she didn't want to marry him either. She probably was so competitive that she wanted to beat me.

Jack continued, "I know a lot of you won't forgive for this, but I understand that…But I can't go the rest of my life knowing that I didn't make the right choice.I made a mistake, and I apologize for that. I'm sorry I wasted your time everybody."

He made his way over to me and took my hands. "I'm so sorry, Kim. I just didn't want to let everyone else down. I hope you find in your heart to forgive me. I knew I felt something missing with Heather, and I figured out that it was you. I always promised to never let anyone hurt you, but I did that myself. From now on, I'll listen to you. I promise. I now know that you're truly my other half and that I would crawl to the ends of the earth to make you happy."

Awws were heard through our peers, and I smiled up at him. I threw my arms around him while he wrapped his arms around me.

I pulled away before the most unexpected thing happened: Jack kissed me. Cheers echoed throughout the background, but as a reply to that, Jack pulled me even closer to him.

Our foreheads leaned onto each other's, and he stated, "I know this ten years late, but Kim Crawford, will you please go out with me?"

I smiled from ear to ear. "I don't think I'd think of anything else that would be better. Better late than never, right?"

Jack smiled and once again pressed his lips against mine.

I never thought I would be in this position, but one brave move easily changed the whole direction. These past few days may have had a weird turn of events, but it had a happy ending. I finally had my happy ending.

The End

And there's the cheesy romantic ending for you. I made Heather a dynamic character because I couldn't stand her to make her one of those cruel characters. I'm going to miss this story a lot. :'( Thanks to every single one of you who read my story. You were the reason I kept writing. Thank you to the guest who gave me this idea, for I couldn't think of a better way to end this collection. I'm going to miss you guys a ton, and to anyone who saw the promo of the last episode of Season 3, leave it in the review about what you thought about it. I think I might even cry at that episode with Olivia leaving. Thank you to the Kickin' It writers who gave me inspiration and molded me into who I am today. Leave a review about what you thought about this one-shot and what you thought about this collection. I promise I'll read all of it.

We swear by the light of the dragon's eye to be loyal honest and never say die. Wasabi!
