Dangerous Thoughts:

The two parted when someone interrupted them, Kick instantly glaring at the person.

"Hope I wasn't interrupting anything?" The person raised an eyebrow.

"Ronaldo." Kick narrowed his eyes. "What the hell do you want?" He sneered.

"Surprising to see you out and about, being that there is class currently." Kendall mentioned, folding her arms, curious.

"I could say the same to you two, can't I?" Ronaldo argued, rather neutrally.

"We have a note." Kendall replied. "Not that, that's any of your concern." She spoke. "Being that you're not the hall monitor." He rolled his eyes at that comment.

"We'll I have my own reason for being out." He held up his own pass. The two seeing it. "I just happened to be passing by when I saw something interesting…"

"You might have a bathroom pass, however, the bathroom is down a different hallway isn't it?" Kick countered.

"Like I said, I was on my way from there when something caught my attention." Ronaldo spoke.

"That so…" Kick rolled his eyes at that. "Well maybe like Kendall said, you should just keep to yourself." He reiterated. 'What curiosity going to do, kill the cat?' Ronaldo thought. Kick eyes widened. Ronaldo let out a small huff.

"Just what do you want anyway Ronaldo?" Kendall questioned. He glanced away.

"This might surprise you but nothing." Kick was suspicious of the answer. "You don't have to believe me, but I don't want anything." He said turning away, walking. Kendall glanced at Kick, as she was a bit surprised. Kick did a small shrug. He looked back at Ronaldo. The blonde boy did a small breath, stopping. "Did you mean it?" He suddenly asked, catching the two off guard. Kendall looked at him.

"What?" She commented.

"Did you mean it?" He reiterated, he looked back at her. She had a curious look.

"I don't know what you mean." She told him.

"What you said." He clarified. "That you…that you never loved me." Kick gave him a look, because for the first time Ronaldo looked hurt. "Did you mean it?" Kendall let out a breath.

"Yes." She answered. "I wanted to break up with you since eighth grade." She added, Ronaldo's eyes widening. "I didn't…our relationship was…I didn't want to be with you Ronaldo." She finally said. He glanced away.

"That's…that's not…true…" He spoke quietly.

"Yes it is." Kendall assured. "Our relationship was long over on my side."

"Then that summer, freshman year….all of it…." He tried to rationalize.

"Ronaldo you were kind, sweet and a really nice person back then." Kendall told him. He tightened his fists. "Until my father happened." Kick's and Ronaldo's eyes widened.

"What are you talking about?" Kick questioned.

"He told you…" Ronaldo was shocked. Kendall shook her head.

"No." She replied. "I just know my father too well." She let her hand go to arm again.

"What the hell is she talking about?" Kick re-questioned. Ronaldo let out a breath.

"She's talking about how her father threatened me." Ronaldo responded. Kick was shocked.

"You mean…" Kick couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Ronaldo did what he did for reasons, because my father threatened his future probably and I'm sure his life." Kendall stared up at Ronaldo, who glanced away.

"Your father was intimidating and very powerful, where he got that power I'll never know but he was." Ronaldo commented.

"So you did all of that shit to her because her father told you to?" Kick didn't know if he should kick his ass, stay where he was, or what he should do.

"If you had to deal with a man like that, trust me, you wouldn't know what to do." Ronaldo argued. "He was terrifying. He said he could ruin me, and I even believed he could kill me." He added. "He told me to make her a "respectful, obedient woman" whatever the hell that meant…" Ronaldo continued. "And I held out for as long as I could, why do you think I wanted us to leave this place?" He argued. "But he told me if didn't start doing something, especially with the twins coming back, and the new British students who he absolutely hated, I was….he just told me to act or else….so I listened alright…And I regret it…you think I wanted to do what I did?" Ronaldo questioned.

"Might I ask how Debbie fit into all of this?" Kendall asked. "She seems to be the only thing I never understood about the whole thing."

"I wanted to save you…eventually, but let's just say because of the stress, because of everything, I found myself getting closer to her naturally. It was a pure accident, but she helped. However, our affair was exaggerated with how long we were together."

"Was it? So you didn't get together in sophomore year?" She inquired.

"Not quite. More like towards the end of junior year, but we started to get closer in the beginning of sophomore year… that's when your father started to really get on me." He replied.

"Right…that's when I noticed you started to change…" Kendall confessed, as she thought about it.

"I admit I made a poor choice…." He glanced down. "A very regrettable choice, but I never wanted to hurt you Kendall…and I still don't…" Kick never thought about that, until something occurred to him.

"Then why the hell are you still bothering us?" Kick questioned. "Her father is locked up. He has no power. Even more that doesn't excuse anything you fucking did to her." Ronaldo glanced away. Kendall staring at him now.

"He has a point. Somewhat." She said. "My father's power, maybe he still has it, I'm not sure, however…" She stared at Ronaldo. "You…you haven't left me alone. And you're still acting out, acting as though my father has control." Ronaldo let out a breath.

"Your father I don't believe has any power…but let's just say…it's not him that has the control now…" Ronaldo glanced at Kick. 'And you know that.' He thought. Kick stared at him.

"You're…. no…" Kick barely whispered.

"Then answer this Ronaldo, will you leave me alone? Leave me and my friends alone." Kendall questioned. He let out another sigh.

"Kends…there's a lot….a lot you don't know….You and Jackie…" He spoke. "I…" He let out a huff. "I still don't want to hurt you…" He continued. "I just have to follow rules." He finished. 'Keep that in mind.' Ronaldo warned. Kick glared, as Ronaldo started to walk away.

"Ronaldo." Kick's voice was low and pissed. He glanced back him. Kendall looked between the two.

"Something wrong?" Ronaldo questioned. Kick let out a grunt.

"A displeasing thought came to mind." He commented. "However, it be best if you remember who it is you're dealing with." He warned, still glaring.

"Trust me, I know." Ronaldo said, still sounding neutral. "I know." He turned around walking back to his class. Kick let out a frustrated breath.

"Um…what was that about?" Kendall asked.

"Nothing." Kick rolled his eyes. "Just….Ronaldo being a nuisance." He added. "Although I didn't…I didn't know about…"

"It's okay, that's why I don't care about it anymore." She stated. "It will never make it right, but I can tell it kinda torments him. But you can see now my father…he did a lot." She said, holding her arm.

"Yeah…" Kick agreed.

"Mr. Buttowski, Ms. Perkins." Ms. Fitzpatrick came jogging up to them. They turned looking at her.

"Ms. Fitzpatrick, is something wrong?" Kendall inquired.

"No, but I believe I gave you the wrong note." She handed them a new note. "I wanted to give you the whole period to discuss a schedule for Kick's tutoring, knowing you can get him back on track, and I believe I wrote the wrong time." She explained.

"Oh, we thought you might have wrote the wrong time, however not for that reason, but by giving us too much time." Kendall informed.

"Oh not at all." Kick gave back the original note. "We want him to pass this semester, so we knew scheduling how this tutoring would go was going to be important." She stated. "Anyway here is the new note."

"Thank you, oh we have the schedule all worked out, I will be sending you an email by lunch of how will go." Kendall told her.

"Excellent. Glad to hear." She smiled. "I expect positive results Mr. Buttowski." She walked away. The two started to walk down the halls again. They wondered for a bit in silence.

"Our next class we'll be starting soon." Kendall brought up.

"That's true." A thought occurring to him. "Hey Kends." He glanced at her. She looked at him in acknowledgement. "Earlier…um before all that with Ronaldo…" He had to admit that was still heavily on his mind. "You…were going to tell me something?" He questioned. "I think you were, but I can't remember, given all that just happened…" He had to admit. Her face heated up again. 'I…oh my….I was….I was about to….AHHH…' She screamed in her head.

"I…uh…that is…um…." Her anxiety rising again. "You know…uh…I don't remember either." She tried to throw suspicion. "With….um all the subject changes…" She had a nervous laugh. He raised a curious eyebrow. "Anyway, don't we have class? We have class…I um…bye." She rushed out of there so fast to get to her next class. He had a strange confused look.

"Okay...that was weird." He had a small laugh, heading to his class.

(**)

"What the hell do you mean he's one?!" Nicolette exclaimed, as her hands slammed on the table. Kendall, Jackie and Teena lucky at the girls' lockers getting a few things while the group discussed some things. "Since when the hell did that happen?" She asked.

"I don't know." Brianna had a suspicious look. "But now things are starting to add up from before." She reasoned.

"I know, but that still doesn't explain how he was able to evade our abilities for so long." Loraina commented. "Especially mine."

"He must have found a loop hole or something and figured it out." Scarlet explained.

"Plus given that he hangs out with Gordie." Kick added.

"True." Gunther nodded. "But that doesn't make this any better. Do you think he can pose a threat?"

"Absolutely." Nicolette replied. "Look at what he did. Are we seriously asking that?"

"Yes, but if he did it because her father…and now is following…" Mouth brought up.

"Doesn't matter, he's still a threat." Brianna interrupted. "I just wonder why he didn't…" She began to think.

"I don't care, so long as she doesn't know, that's all that matters." Kick came in.

"That and it keeps Jackie and Kendall safer." Gunther added.

"Are you guys saying that because it keeps them unaware or actually safer?" Scarlet had a bit of sly look, but was curious. The boys gave her a look.

"I'd say both options, knowing these two." Brianna answered. They let out low huffs of air.

"That sounds about right with those two." Loraina giggled. The two rolled their eyes to that.

"Are you all done?" Kick asked. The others having a chuckle at that.

"Shame though…" Brianna glanced, gaining the other's attention. "Shame you forgot what it is she was going to say." She had a sly expression and smirk. Kick almost chocked on his saliva with that.

"Brianna damnit!" He shot her a look. "Will you just stay the hell out of my head?!" Scarlet, Mouth and Gunther laughing at them.

"Oh please, like you don't go in mine." She countered.

"Now that you mention it, you two were absent all class." Nicolette came in, wanting to tease Kick.

"Anything happen?" Scarlet quirked.

"No, jeez, will all of you just quit it, ugh…" He gave them all looks.

"Sure about that?" Brianna folded her arms.

"Damnit Brianna, mind your own business!" He shot back at her.

"Hey, I find this unfair that you two can read one another's minds." Nicolette commented. "Share Brianna."

"She isn't sharing anything!" Kick pointed. Scarlet, Mouth, Gunther and Brianna laughed.

"Although the fact you can see his dreams later isn't at all unfair either?" Loraina reminded with a look.

"Oh, right." Nicolette somewhat forgot. Kick smacked his head on the table again, the others enjoying teasing him.

"You know until you grow some and finally tell her how you feel, you're going to have to deal with this." Scarlet whispered.

"So I'm gathering." He concluded.

"Best do something, especially since you were so nice to her." Brianna winked. He rolled his eyes.

"I'm just glad Kendall is okay. She is amazing, awesome, beautiful, and one of the best people I have ever known." Kyle came in. "I am her number one fan and want her to always be happy. And if possible mine forever, because she is just so fantastic, creative, and brilliant. I think she is incredible and love being her number one fan." He was talking fast again with hearts in his eyes. Brianna and Kick getting an annoyed look. Both of them then smacking him, causing him to hit the ground.

"Kyle, we love you and you're our cousin…" Brianna started, messaging her temples as a headache was forming. "But keep this up, saying stuff like that, and I will hurt you." She let out.

"Agreed." Kick folded his arms, sighing with as much annoyance. The others laughed again.
