AN: Hi to anyone who's still reading this! Sorry I haven't updated in ages, but to be
perfectly honest, I haven't really watched Passions since Taylor Anne Mountz left the show.
I'll try and finish this story, but please don't expect it to be updated regularly, because
I have other stories taking priority over this one. Thank you for understanding.

After serving their time in detention, Kay and Reese walked to the Book Café together. Kay
couldn't help noticing the many stares that Reese was receiving, especially from the female
population of Harmony. "It looks like you've got a fan club," she remarked.
Reese looked around and blushed. "Why are they looking at me?" he asked.
Kay had to keep her mouth from falling open. "You really have no idea?" she inquired,
surprised.
Reese shrugged. "Because I'm not wearing my glasses?" he guessed.
Kay swallowed a giggle. "Yeah, you could say that," she replied with a straight face.
Reese noticed Kay's expression and was puzzled by it. "What's so funny?" he asked, confused.
Kay lost it and burst into giggles. "You haven't looked in a mirror lately, have you?" she
asked with amusement.
"Just this morning," Reese replied obliviously. "Do I have something on my face?" He began
wiping his chin and cheeks self-consciously.
Kay put her hands on Reese's shoulders and looked up into his blue eyes. "Reese, you know
I'm your friend and I'm not going to lie to you, right?"
Reese nodded cautiously, worried about what Kay was going to say next. "I know," he replied
hesitantly.
The corner of Kay's mouth twitched as she tried not to laugh at Reese's concerned
expression. "Reese, you're hot."
Reese's brow furrowed. "No, I'm not," he responded. "I'm actually kind of cold, since it got
cloudy."
Kay shook her head, frustrated. He really didn't get it. "Reese, you're cute," she tried
again. "You're absolutely gorgeous. You've just been hiding behind your chunky glasses for
the longest time. Now that everyone can see your face, of course they're going to want to
look at you."
Reese looked at Kay doubtfully. "I'm cute," he said skeptically.
Kay nodded. "Definitely," she replied.
Reese burst into laughter. "Sure thing, Bennett," he responded. "Yeah, and you really like
algebra."
"All right, if the next girl we see flirts with you, then you owe me coffee, deal?" Kay
challenged playfully.
Reese smiled, knowing that she'd lose. "Deal," he agreed.
********************************************************************************************
Kay smirked at Reese over her large mug of imported Swiss Almond Mocha. "Thanks for the
coffee, Reese," she told him. "It's really good."
"It should be, considering it's the most expensive," Reese grumbled good-naturedly. "I still
think it's unfair, since it was Beth that flirted with me."
"Hey, a bet's a bet," Kay replied, grinning. "I should be asking for more, since it was an
older woman."
Just then, Simone came into the café. She saw Kay sitting on the couch waved happily at her
best friend.
Kay waved back and gestured for Simone to join her.
"What on earth did you do today?" Simone demanded eagerly as she sat down beside Kay.
"Miguel told me that you belted him and then went off with some guy that he'd never seen
before. And I heard from some girls that this mystery guy was really hot."
Kay nearly choked on her coffee. "Um...Simone?" She pointed to the person sitting on the
other couch.
Simone slowly turned around and saw a handsome boy watching her with amusement. It took her
a second to realize that the boy was Reese. Despite her dark skin, she managed to blush
deeply. "Hi Reese," she mumbled.
"You can call me Mystery Guy," Reese replied teasingly.
If it was even possible, Simone blushed even darker. "You're not wearing your glasses," she
said, stating the obvious.
"Contact lenses," Reese explained.
"Oh," Simone replied faintly. "You look really good."
Reese's cheeks reddened slightly and he smiled at Simone. "Thanks," he replied.
Kay watched the exchange between Simone and Reese, seemingly forgotten by her best friend.
She decided to remind Simone that she was still there. "So, how mad is Miguel at me?" she
inquired.
"What?" Simone asked distractedly.
Kay grinned at Simone's preoccupation. "Miguel? My fist? His face? That's why you're here,
isn't it?" she reminded her friend.
Simone shook herself out of her stupor and focused on what Kay was saying. "Oh, right! So
what happened?" she asked.
"I'll tell you later, okay?" Kay promised. For some reason, she didn't want Reese to know
that she'd hit Miguel because of him, in a way.
"All right," Simone agreed easily. "You should see Miguel's jaw though. You really did a
number on him. There's this huge bruise on it, and it's every color of the rainbow. He had
to go see the nurse."
Kay immediately felt guilty. True, at the time, she'd felt pretty damn good, slugging
Miguel. But now that she'd had time to think about it, she wished that she hadn't let her
emotions get the better of her. "But he's okay, right?" she asked concernedly.
Simone nodded. "Oh, sure," she replied. "He's just going to be sore for a while."
Kay sighed with relief. Then she groaned. "I'm going to be in so much trouble," she
declared.
Simone shook her head. "Miguel told the nurse that he fell," she told Kay.
Kay was shocked. "But everyone saw me hit him," she protested.
Simone shrugged. "He was the victim, so his story is the truth," she replied. "I guess he's
protecting you."
Kay was touched. "I can't believe he'd do that for me," she said softly.
"He's your friend, Kay," Reese reminded her.
Kay rolled her eyes disdainfully. "He has a funny way of showing it," she retorted.
"I think he just did," Reese countered.
Kay fell silent as she contemplated what Reese had just said.
The chime above the café door jingled merrily as someone walked in. The three teens on the
couches looked up to see the newcomer. Kay tensed visibly as she watched Miguel hold the
door open for Charity.
