A.N: This is what happens after Jack's parents find out about Jack being all nice with Katherine and Katherine giving him the goo-goo eyes. Again sorry for the late update, I had to study a lot for a math exam. A+ though, so it was worth it.

Jack stood in front of the mirror in his parents bedroom. His mom was combing his hair for the fifth time that day. "Mother, I think that's enough."

"I would have left it the first time if you hadn't messed around with it."

"Well it's not my fault that Elizabeth decided to jump on me and climb up to my head."

"After you decided to ruff house with Little Finny."

"He looked bored."

"Then take him outside next time.

"I'll do that now" Jack treid to pull away but his mom grabbed him."

"No. I'm going to make sure that when Katherine pictures you, you have nicely combed hair."

"Why are we doing this again?"

"Because by what you told me a few days ago, that sweet young girl might have some interest in you."

"Oh let him go, Lara." His father said walking in the room. " The boy already looks spiff enough."

"Well men don't understand that it's best to take time to get ready."

"I will take that to note."

"Good, know as for Jack, we need to practice on what you are going to say."

"I thought I was going to just leave the flowers on the porch." Jack almost shouted.

"Why do you think I want you to look good?"

"Gah…" Jack whined.

"I have them!" Elizabeth shouted running into the room. She held 3 parsnip flowers in her hand and handed them to her mother.

"Thank you, deary." She put down the comb and handed the flowers to Jack. "The best thing to do is start a conversation. After you hand her the flowers, complemant her."

"On what?" Jack asked.

"Her dress!" Elizabeth suggested.

"Her eyes." His mother added.

"I heard from Eddy that the best compliment would be about her breast." Jack stated.

His father began to laugh histarically. Lara tried to get her husband to stop laughing. Elizabeth was just confused. Once she was done calming her huspand, Jack's mother said, "You will not say-"

"I know, I just wanted to make this conversation less boring." Jack said with his famous smirk.

"Why not her breast?" Elizabeth said.

"It's nothing, Elizabeth. Just go down staires and I'll see to you that you get a filling lunch."

"Ok, mother." Elizabeth said running out.

Jack's mother looked at him. "I will speak to Eddy's mother. For know, I want you to remember to just be yourself when you talk. It seems that's the reason Katherine likes you."

"Mother, I keep telling you that she doesn't seem to like me. And I'm just being nice, it's not like I have…..well..."

"Jackson Overland, this is just a friendly visit….."

))))))) few minutes later (((((

Jack knocked on the Burgess door, hoping that Katherine wasn't there so he didn't have to go through this. Unfortunatly for him, Katherine opened the door. "Jack. I didn't expect you to come."

No kidding. "I just wanted to stop by…and here." Jack handed Katherine the parsnips his sister collected.

"Oh wow, they are beautiful." She said looking at them.

"I thought you would like them."

"I do, thank you." She looked at Jack and he looked back at her. For the first time, Jack finally took in Katherin's features. Her brown short hair was parted on the side, her light brown eyes sparkled in the afternoon sun. Her smile made the boy feel light on his feet. Jack never knew why he was always nice to her, he just thought it was because this girl had a bad brother and some children were afraid to be friends with the town founders daughter. Now that Jack stood there, he knew it wasn't because of that. She was so nice and kind. Shy at some points but treid her best to make friends. Jack had finally figured it out. Jack Liked Katherine.

"Are you all right?" Katherine asked at the dreamy looking Jack.

They young man shook his head and came back to reality. "Yeah um… I'm fine… I…" Jack treid to remember what he had to do next. He said the first thing that came to his head. "Your Breast."

"What?" Katherine became wide eyed.

"I mean you are looking frest. Wait, No! That's not a word. Your-Your smile!"

"My smile?"

"Ye-Yes." Jack tried to keep from stummering. Katherine giggled.

))))))))from a hiding spot with a view of the scene. ((((((((((99

"Well beside that breast comment, I think it went well." Jack's mother said.

"Jack would never have hesitated like that." Jack's father said

"This time he really took the time for Katherine."

"But he always has given time. Didn't you hear?"

"Yes but all he said was that he was being nice. I made sure todays visit opened his eyes to see why he was being nice. Next time I'll make sure he finds out she likes him."

"How do you know?"

"From what he told me, she takes interest in his activities. To me, she just wants to be with him."

"You are smarter then you look."

"Do I?" she said as they leaned in and kissed.

A.N: I hoped you liked it. Sorry I have to rush. I'm KikaKatTIOI, peace out!
