Chapter 5

Sweet Kelly

Kelly was on her way to the president's residence, when she saw the woman walking towards her. "Hi Kelly," Mac said with a smile, "Horace is waiting for you in the living room."

"Yes Madame President." Kelly said returning the smile.

"Hey I appreciate you helping him, but you really don't have to." Mac thanked her Press secretary.

"I know Mac, but I want to. He asked me so nicely."

"Yeah, you know it doesn't surprise me that he would go into politics. Just like his mother, that one. Anyway, thanks Kelly, make yourself at home." Mac said her back fast retreating towards the office.

"Thank you ma'am," Kelly frankly wasn't used to seeing her president in such informal setting. She seemed a lot happier than she had been earlier. Vince said that Rod had come to get her that afternoon, basically dragging her out of 'The Oval' with a dazed look on her face. "I guess it was a productive afternoon." Kelly murmured with a smirk, as she walked on towards residence.

When Kelly walked into the residence, Horace was looking at his notes looking as if he didn't know where to start. "Hey Horace." She said walking towards him.

"Hey... um, have a seat. Do you want anything to drink?" Horace said signaling to the couch he had been sitting in.

"Sure I'll have some water." Kelly stated taking a seat. As he headed to the kitchen on residence, Kelly looked down at Horace's notes. She couldn't make heads or tails of what he wanted to do for the school.

"Here you go." Horace said handing her a cold glass.

"Thanks," she said then took a satisfying sip, "Talking all day can take its toll."

Horace plopped down on the couch next to her. "I bet."

"Listen, I don't see where you are going with this. What is going to happen when you take office?" Kelly said shuffling the papers on the coffee table. "Where are your campaign promises? What will you do for them when you win"

"You sound as if I've already won" Horace said

"Oh please... I know for a fact that just because you are the son of the President you have office. Now you are only as good as what you say you'll do for them." Kelly said reminding him of what both his mom and Becca had told him.

"Well I don't know." Horace said not knowing exactly what to do with school stuff. "What are the usual school stuff? I mean student body presidents don't really have anything to do with what happens in the school, do they?"

"If that's how you feel Horace, why did you even accept the nod?" Kelly asked.

"I don't know. Everyone really wanted me to do it. I'm supposed to be a natural born leader. It's in my blood." Horace answered.

"Horace, there is no such thing as a natural born leader. Your mom and dad work at what they do. They work at being leaders." Kelly answers. "You lead only when you know what you are getting into."

Horace looked down on his notes. "Well, now I've come this far, I don't want to look like some looser."

"Then come up with something you want to lead your class into. Figure that out and we will be able to put your speech together." Kelly said just as Mac was walking back towards her den.

"Well said," The president said as she walked through the living room. "Horace, don't keep her up too late."

"I won't mom." Horace answered with a smile.

"Your mom's my hero." Kelly said, "She is the only one I know that I can write a whole speech for, then totally blow my work off and I won't get pissed for it. Then I get credit for all the brilliant things that she says."

"What about when she messes up?" Horace asks.

"Oh she is so good about taking accountability for her actions, and that makes her a great leader." Kelly answered, then looked down on his note pad. "Now, write down things that you would like to change about your school."

"Okay, Here we go." He said beginning to write some ideas out as Kelly watched.
