Kim POV

It was already 6 o'clock leaving only a few hours until we rang in the new year! I was extremely excited and wondered what Jack had in store for me but no matter how much I begged he wouldn't spill.

Jack finally claimed it was time for me to get ready and I immediately hopped up and ran to my room leaving a chuckling Jack behind. It took me 20 minutes to get my long blonde hair into natural looking wavy, 5 to put on some light makeup and another 20 to slip into my 'New Years' outfit which consisted of gold hoop earrings, a wooly forest green sweater, black skinny jeans, green beanie and black scarf and gloves because Jack said his surprise would be outside.

Once I'd finished I ran to the living room to be greeted by an empty room with a huge holiday card in the middle. I cautiously looked around whilst inching towards the card. When it was in my hand's range I grabbed hold of it and flipped it open to find the truck keys with a note attached to it. I looked around once more before curiously opening the note which read "Drive to the place you let of steam and look your best (even if you don't believe me) – Your Secret Admirer." I laughed out loud at the note and thought over where this could be.

Easy, the dojo. I always go there to let of steam when I'm angry and Jack used to always joke around about me looking super 'hot' when I was sweating. Of course this comment would always make me charge at him, but no amount of punches could ever mask the light pink which flashed on my face and the flutter I felt in my stomach. After debating over searching for Jack and ruining his plans I decided to play along so I grabbed my coat, slipped my light grey studded boots on and headed to the truck.

I pulled up into the malls parking lot and started walking towards the dojo which already had the lights turned on. This meant I was right and that Jack was probably near as he didn't want anything happening to me because it was 'too dark' for women to be out alone.

I opened the door once more and looked around before stepping in. In the centre of the dojo was a vase of white, pink, yellow and red roses. Next to it was a beautiful collage of pictures from pictures which dated back to when we first met. I smiled a shaky smile and tried not to let my tears spill. I've been so emotional lately! What is wrong with me!

Around the neck of vase was a small note tied with red ribbon. I sat cross legged on the floor and read the note. "Go to the place where I first called you beautiful. - Your Secret Admirer" I smiled to myself as I recalled the memory of when Jack first did this and meant it in a serious way.

I was fifteen and had my first boyfriend who's name was Jason. Jason didn't mean as much to me as Jack did, the only reason why I even thought of dating a guy other than Jack was because Jack started noticing girls in a more then 'friendly' way. This wouldn't have been a problem if those girls were been me, but they weren't.

I was weak and broken so when Jason showed me affection I jumped in not caring about how it would end up. A month into dating Jason I really fell for him. Not as much as Jack but evidently close. On our fourth month anniversary I caught Jason making out with Lorie. He called me an ugly troll and told me that he used me to make other girls jealous, and that I wasn't worth any of his time.

That was the first time I broke completely and Jack was the first to find me. He was also the first to comfort me by spending countless sleepless nights with me, simply lying together in bed and was also the first to punch Jason in the nose, giving him a broken nose and Jack himself a three day suspension.

Jack found me on the roof of our school. A place no one really knows of, but Jack did, because he knew me well enough to know exactly where I'd end up. He'd pulled me into his arms, kissing my forehead and whispered comforting words into my ear. His last action was the one which meant, and still does mean the most to me. He pulled my forehead to his and whispered "You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met Kim, don't you dare let some fucking asshole tell you otherwise." That one sentence made my stomach flip flop and my mind empty all thoughts about Jason and simply focus on the boy in front of me.

I cut the engine off and stepped out into the cool air. I stuffed my gloved hands into my pocket and looked up at the roof to see little chinese air balloons being lifted into the sky. They were all different colours and lifted into the air seconds after each other filling the sky with endless balloons. Jack really does go out when he wants too!

I was thinking about how in the world I was supposed to get to the roof of the school without being able to go inside when a small parachute with a pink letter hanging from it drifted down. I grabbed it before the balloon touched the ground and immediately opened it up. I had to be fast if I wanted to count down with Jack! "First kiss – Your Secret Admirer" Along with the note was Hershey Kiss* which I unwrapped and popped in my mouth before taking one last look at the hot air balloons and turning to the truck.

Jack and I were hanging out at around 10pm by the park in our neighbourhood. Jack and I were close too back then so talking about anything from sexual frustrations to period pains was normal. That night our conversation was about how we'd had less kisses then half the people at our school and that we wished kisses didn't make relationships so weird.

This led to us getting into a heated argument about wether kissing your best friend was okay or not which then led to Jack pinning me to a tree. The rest was quick, heated and passionate but was chosen to be forgotten the next day. Not necessarily chosen but more forced to forget as we both feared the effect it would have on our relationship.

The moon lit up the sky as I walked towards the tree where we had our first kiss. I grinned at the heart carved into the tree along with J+K carved in the middle. Underneath was a small yellow sticky note along with a picture of Jack and I which was taken by Eddie. The picture was taken when we finally managed to put together enough money to buy the apartment and had first moved in. Jack insisted on carrying me over the thresh hold and Eddie whipped out his phone just as we were walking over. Jack was carrying me bridal style and grinning while looking down at me. I was laughing whilst looking up at Jack, and had one arm around his neck and the other on my head trying to keep my beanie from slipping off along with one leg in the air and other dangling.

I loved this picture because it was taken unexpectedly so everything was natural. This picture pretty much described my entire relationship with Jack. Completely natural, totally real and never failing to make me happy.

The note said "The last, I promise. Off to the place where we found each other and our own land – I love you Kimmy hurry to me."

I immediately knew where this was. Jack and I found a little lake in a forest at around the age of 13. Funny story really, a month after we became best friends Jack and I had our first REAL time alone. Milton had french horn practice, Eddie had to help his grandmother clean her house and Jerry had Saturday detention (no surprise there) so we had an entire day to ourselves.

I had already started falling for Jack then, but my feelings weren't very strong so I wasn't too worried about how the day would go. This didn't mean I wasn't worried at all though, I still spent an hour trying to find clothes which looked nice but not like I was trying to hard.

Jack walked over to my house that morning to pick me up and we spent half the day at the park but eventually got bored and decided to go on an adventure. This lead to us exploring the forest and finding this lake. Through the years we became closer by taking a break from the guys and coming there just the two of us. I think this private place is actually one of the reasons our bond is so tight today. When we were old enough we managed to build a tree house, but no matter what we always kept it a secret. That place belong to Jack and I only.

I traced the fresh carving on the tree lightly with my fingers before checking my watch. I should get going because there was only 20 minutes left until midnight!

I made it to the forest in 10 minutes flat and when I got out of the truck I saw a path of candles placed on little holders which rested on dried leaves. The candles led to the little tree house. I climbed up the ladder and opened the hatch so I could climb inside the tree house then closed the hatch behind me and dusted myself off before looking up.

Jack was down on one knee with a ring box in his hand. My hands flew to my mouth and tears filled my eyes. "Kim I love you more then you'll ever know I-" I cut Jack off and flew into his arms "YES A MILLION TIMES YES!" I said while crying happily. Jack grinned widely whilst slipping the ring on my finger and kissing me passionately.

I suddenly heard a loud popping noise and looked up from my place on the ground to the window to find a firework show begin. Jack stood and held his arm out to me than pulled me up and wrapped his arms around my side. "It's time." He whispered.

Fireworks of every colours popped out of everywhere, it was absolutely magnificent. We started counting down and when we reached 1 Jack pulled me to his lips and we kissed.

He pulled me to his forehead. "Happy New Year Kimmy." He whispered before leaning down to capture my lips once more.

DONE. :)
