Amber dropped Kimiko off near a park where Jack was apparently taking a walk. The last thing Kimiko really wanted to do was to spend more time with Jack than she needed, but she couldn't exactly tell that to his mother. Especially after his mother had made it so obvious that she was glad they 'liked each other'.

Kimiko found jack sitting beneath the shade of a willow tree, with a portable radio next to him. It was blasting out the latest number one, but Jack appeared not to really be listening. He was staring off into space, a piece of crumpled paper in his hand.

"Spicer?" Asked Kimiko, edging a little closer.

Jack looked around, his eyes wide with fear.

"Kimiko?" He asked.

"Yes," Said Kimiko, "Did you hit your head or something?"

"Haven't you … don't you … have you checked your email today?" He asked.

"No, I've been shopping with your mother," explained Kimiko, "What's up with you?"

Jack didn't answer and Kimiko pulled her hand held computer out of her mini backpack. It beeped indicating that she had two new emails. One was from Keiko:

From: Keiko.

Hi Kimiko. Haven't spoken to you in ages, but I got an interesting email from someone I've never even heard of before. Cat …o… something. Anyway, you're so cheeky. Not telling me! Email me back, okay? Tell me everything.

From Keiko.

Kimiko was confused. This email didn't make any sense. What did her getting an email from someone have to do with her? What's so cheeky about her? What did she want to know about? Kimiko shook her head and turned to the next email.

She didn't recognise the name, but she realised this was who Keiko must have been talking about. It was from someone called 'Katonapp2020'. She clicked on it and as it loaded, she noticed that Jack had been watching her fearfully. What was in this email?

It loaded and at first all she could see were the words 'Number one cutest couple'. She scrolled down …

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

She scream would've been enough to shatter glass. The photo was on her computer. Not only that, but Keiko had gotten it and from the look on Jack's face he had gotten it. Kimiko pulled out her mobile and went onto her picture message. Again, she had a message from Katonapp2020. Whoever had taken this photo had sent it to every electrical device able to receive messages with pictures attached.

Hold on a second … Raimundo had a computer. He would get that message and show it to everyone!

"Oh god, oh god, oh god!" She said, rocking back and forth slightly.

Jack held out the paper that he had been holding in his hand. It was a print of the picture.

"Who … how … what …" Stammered Kimiko.

"Wish I knew, then I could kill them personally." Snarled Jack, "Everyone of my robots is telling me I've got mail and each one it printing off one of these photos. God, I long for the days that you guys would just smash them up."

"They're going to come here!" She said hysterically, "they're going to come here and yell at me and then kill you, but I'm not bothered about that."

"Oh, thanks," Said Jack, glaring at her.

"Oh god, what are they going to be thinking about me? They're going to be so mad. They're going to be judging me, always judging me!" She broke down to her knees.

Jack watched her kneeling on the grass, with shafts of light shining through the branches and gaps in the leaves falling across her (he had to admit) pretty face. A couple of tears fell down her pale cheeks as her hair fell down over her eyes. His heart was going a thousand beats a minute. It wouldn't stop. His face was burning and slowly going the same shade of red as his hair. His deep red eyes watched her and his breathing became heavier.

There had always been something he had liked about her, as he had told her when he had swapped her with the Chameleon-bot. "I'd rather have the real you around any day …". Had that been true? At the time he had thought he was just saying it because he wanted her to be on his side, but maybe there was something more there …

"What are you staring at?" Snapped Kimiko, standing up and brushing the tears away from her eyes.

"What … I'm not staring!" He said. All the feelings he had just had were gone and he was back to regretting that he had ever agreed to this stupid plan.

"You were!" She snapped, "What are we going to do now?"

"How should I know?" Asked Jack.

"This is all your fault!" Shouted Kimiko.

"Uh, hello? Are you on this planet? You hugged me!" He shouted.

"You didn't have to hug me back!" Kimiko shouted.

"It still would've looked the same on camera!" shouted Jack, "We can't change it now!"

Kimiko stopped and stared at him. Her face softened again and Jack backed off. He didn't like her when she wasn't mad, it just didn't seem right. Now his heart was starting again as she edged closer.

"I know," She whispered to him softly, "It was my fault and now … Raimundo and the others are going to be here by the morning I bet."

"Well then you should enjoy yourself while you can." Said Jack, shrugging, "No point dying miserable."

Jack was trying to convince himself more than her, but it still seemed to work. Her face filled with determination and she smiled gently.

"Let's get going then!" She said, enthusiastically.

"What?" Asked Jack.

"Well, they're probably going to arrive sometime tomorrow since Dojo probably needs to recharge," Explained Kimiko, "That gives time to go somewhere."

"Where?" Asked Jack, frightened of the answer already.

"You'll see." Said Kimiko simple before running off.

Raimundo sat on his bed listening to the clock tick … tick … tick …

He didn't even move when he heard Clay and Omi approaching his room. He didn't even move when the large, round, yellow head poked around the door. He remained sat there, staring at the clock face, watching that second had hit twelve again for the millionth time that night.

"Rai?" Asked Clay, before looking down at Omi, "He ain' movin'."

"You don't think he died do you?" Asked Omi, his face filling with fear.

"Not likely," Said Clay, "More like he's counting the seconds till midnigh' so he can ge' us all up to go an' ge' Kimiko."

"I AM NOT!" Shouted Raimundo, finally looking up from the clock.

"We understand Raimundo," Said Omi, "But you must wait until we are ready to leave. Dojo needs his rest."

"He needs more rest like I need a stomach ulcer!" Said Raimundo, "He's just being damn lazy! Let's get him up and go to Kimiko!"

Clay groaned and Omi sighed deeply.

"You are being irrational," Said Omi.

"I totally rational!" Said Raimundo, "She's with Jack Spicer … JACK SPICER! Don't you get it?"

"We know who he is," Said Clay, "doesn't mean nothin'. Like we said, she might be there be blackmail or it might not even be 'er."

"It IS her!" Said Raimundo desperately, "I know it is!"

Just then, Dojo came around the corner.

"I've got enough juice to get us there if you're that desperate to get to her," He said/

"Good," Said Raimundo, "then we're going!"

As night fell over Tokyo, Kimiko and Jack fell out of the last club in the entire city. Kimiko was laughing hysterically and Jack was trying to catch his breath as the security guard stood in the doorway.

"In future, don't turn up without ID!" He said, shutting the door.

Kimiko fell to her knees, still laughing.

"How many clubs have we been chucked out tonight?" Asked Jack, starting to laugh himself.

"Don't know, I lost count after the first sixteen." Said Kimiko.

"And in every one we've been kicked out after about ten minutes arguing with the security guards after sneaking in!" Said Jack, "Is this how you spend your spare time?"

"No, I just thought it would be fun!" Said Kimiko, as she finally stopped laughing.

"Well, where next?" asked Jack, "That was the last one wasn't it?"

"Yep, what do we do now?" Asked Kimiko.

"I don't know. How did all those guys tell we were under eighteen anyway?" asked Jack.

"Probably by your lame dancing." Said Kimiko.

"They can't tell from someone's dancing," Said Jack, "And what's wrong with my dancing?"

"You're serious aren't you?" Laughed Kimiko, "Well I'm very sorry to tell you this but … you dance like a dork!"

"I do not!" Snapped Jack.

"Oh please, what's with that lame version of the robot you were doing?" She asked.

She did an impression of him going stiff and turning and bending with a look of someone who's concentrating on what they're doing, but also trying to look blank like a robot at the same time.

"I do not dance like that!" He laughed, "And besides, you dance lame as well!"

"Excuse me?" Asked Kimiko, "I started dance classes at the age of three."

"What type of dancing?" Asked Jack, "Ballroom 'falling'? 'Cause that's what it looked like to me!"

"Well, I'd like to see you dance seriously. I bet you can't even slow dance or anything!" She said, flicking her hair out of her eyes.

"I've never tried!" Said Jack.

Kimiko stopped laughing.

"You've never danced with anyone?" Asked Kimiko.

"Never had to." Said Jack, shrugging.

"We'll you've got to at a wedding." Said Kimiko, (Trying not to say 'our wedding') "The bride and groom dance first."

"Aw crap!" Said Jack.

It was then that Kimiko decided to take pity on him. She smiled gently and took his hand. Jack's face went red as he stared down at his hand clasped in hers. His heart started pounding again.

"What are you …" He began, but Kimiko pulled out his portable radio and pulled him into the centre of the alley the club's main door opened onto.

She started twisting the dials and adjusting the signal until it came out with a clear, slow dance.

"Well, let me show you how it's done." She said.

She put on his hands on her shoulder and the other on her hip before putting her arms around his neck.

"Now, she said, just follow my feet and then next time, you lead. Alright?" she said.

Jack nodded. He looked down into her blue eyes and his heart beat faster and faster. Follow her feet, but don't tread on them! He couldn't mess this up.

Raimundo, Omi and Clay, sat on Dojo's back, touched down in the centre of Tokyo. They had gone to Kimiko's house first and her father had said that she was out.

"She could be anywhere!" Said Omi, with a moan of despair.

"Listen!" Said Raimundo, putting a finger to his lips.

From out of a near by alley way came a song and the sound of laughter. Raimundo gestured to the others and they edged nearer …

Everything had been going well. Jack had managed to avoid causing any problems as he stared down into Kimiko's eyes, his heart beating and his face slightly red. That was until he stepped forward too fast and they tripped up.

Kimiko called out as she fell backwards and Jack landed on top of her. They lay there for the second as the song changed before they burst out laughing. They lay there laughing for a couple of minutes before. Jack made a move to get up, but couldn't. Kimiko's arms were still around his neck. She went to let go, but her hands would let go.

Their eyes met, she knew what was going to happen, she knew it was wrong, she knew she was only doing it to let out the emotions she had kept locked up inside of her for the past few hours and yet, she let it happen anyway.

Very slowly their faces drew closer and their lips touched, ever so gently. Then, they grew tighter and she stopped trying to pull her arms apart, but just stayed there, kissing Jack Spicer.

At least, they stayed there until they heard a gasp an 'urgh' and a shout.

"KIMIKO!"

They pulled apart and Kimiko pushed him off her before standing up, her face bright red, and she brushed the dirt off her skirt.

Standing in the entrance of the alley way was Clay, Dojo, Omi and, looking so hurt she wanted to cry, stood …

"Raimundo …"

(A/N) I hope you're enjoying this. Something has actually happened at last. I made it so it was more obvious that it was Jack who was actually having true feelings, but Kimiko needed an outlet for her own emotions she had been hiding and they just seemed to spill out at the wrong moment, making her do something she wouldn't normally do.

I chose to have Jack's first realisation under a willow tree because I love willow trees. They're so pretty and in the summer it great just to sit beneath them and let the sun shine through the leaves. It's really nice. I hope you're enjoying it.

Lots of luv, Becky.
