Chapter One

Jason stood by his locker, waiting for his friend to show. It had felt weird, at first, being back in school, after being away for almost 2 years. But things were finally getting back to normal, like he was never away. The only thing that was different was some of his friends were gone. He had learned that Kimberly had an offer to compete with other top gymnasts and had gone to Florida and Aisha had stayed in Africa, to help save some sick animals, when she was sent on her Zeo Quest. Zack and Trini had gone their separate ways after the peace conference was over, but he still talked to them occasionally.

He looked around the school. The only thing that had stayed the same, he spotted Bulk and Skull picking on a young kid. He shook his head, as he closed his locker. "Some things never change," He said to himself, as he watched the two wannabe bullies for a minute. He turned his back to them, just as Tommy was heading his way.

"Hey Tommy," He said, placing his backpack on his one shoulder.

"Hey man," Tommy said, as he walked to his locker, which was next to his. "We are heading to the Juice Bar after school?"

"Yeah," He said. "Maybe we could do some sparing."

"Sounds good to me."

The two best friends started walking down the hall, to their last class of the day.

"Have you heard from Kimberly lately?" Jason asked, as he looked at his friend.

Tommy's face lit up. "Yeah, she called last night," He told him. "She said that she might come visit once things cool down with the competition."

"That's cool. It'd be good to see her, if she does. Like old times."

Tommy smiled at his friend, as he remembered the old days. Hanging out, fighting along side each other, like they were doing now.

Jason's heart skipped a beat, when he made eye contact with the prettiest girl in the school, or at least he thought so. Emma Adams. Emma smiled shyly, then quickly looked away going to her locker for her math book.

Tommy noticed and smiled. "I heard Emma isn't seeing anyone at the moment. If you like her, why don't you ask her out?"

Jason laughed. "HA! Like she would go out with someone like me. And who says I like her?"

"Jase, I've known you for almost 4 years. You're my best friend. I know these things. Plus, it's written all over your face."

"I don't know. We don't even know if she likes me."

"Trust me, she does. She's friends with Tanya and Kat and I over heard them talking about you," Tommy told him, as they stopped in front of Miss Appleby's class. "There's a Spring Dance this Friday, why don't you ask her to go."

Jason sighed; he knew if he didn't agree to do it, Tommy would be hounding him until he does. "I'll think about it."

"Well, you better think fast before someone else snatches her," Tommy said, and walked in the classroom, and taking his seat next to Rocky, who was talking to one of the girls in the class.

Just then the bell rang and Jason quickly hurried to take his seat next to Tanya. She smiled up at Jason, then turned her attention to Miss Appleby, as she started her daily lecture.

During those 50 minutes, not once had Jason paid any attention. His attention was on her and how he was going to ask Emma to the Spring Dace. He wasn't very good at asking a girl out, especially if she was beautiful, at that. Something about her, that had his full attention. She was shy, he could tell that much, just by looking at her. She had sent these feelings, he never felt before, about anyone, in his heart. He didn't know how to act around her, afraid that he would make a fool of himself and that would turn her away. He didn't want that. He would hate himself, if that had happened.

The bell rang, breaking his thoughts away from her. He stood up, grabbing his backpack off the floor and went to catch up with Tommy and the others.
