Author: Thanks to everyone who reviewed! You guys rock and I love ya'll to death! Hope you like this chapter! REVIEW!
Kennedy woke up the next night to find Jack sleeping peacefully next her to his bed. She smiled and ran her hand through his hair. He moved over and wrapped his arms around her waist. She giggled before laying her head down on his chest. Within in minutes she was asleep again. In the morning Jack woke up to Kennedy moving in her sleep. He opened his eyes and saw she was lying on his chest. He smiled to himself before rubbing the side of her head causing her to wake up. She looked up at his eyes and smiled
"Hey beautiful." He replied with a smile.
"Hey yourself."
"You look absolutely gorgeous in the morning times."
"Well you look gorgeous all the time." He leaned down and kissed her on the nose. "What would you like to do today?" he asked her
"It doesn't matter. I just want to spend the day with you." She smiled at him.
"Well I can stay in this bed all day with you looking like this." Jack replied. Kennedy looked down and saw that their bodies were wrapped in a blanket, both naked underneath. Before she could say anything they heard footsteps coming up the stairs. "We don't have school today right?" Jack asked looking at her
"No, it's Saturday." Kennedy replied.
"Good…" Jack replied before throwing her backwards and kissing her neck
"Jack!" she squealed. She began laughing and trying to fight him off of her. "Stop…that tickles." She yelled. She finally got him off of her and moved to get off the bed when she heard the door of the room open. "Holy shit!" she yelled. She grabbed the sheet and the comforter off the bed and wrapped it around her body, leaving Jack naked in the bed.
"Um….." Angel began. He was lost for words. Jack just sat there staring at his brother until he noticed nothing was covering him up. He took the pillow and placed it in his lap. Kennedy just stared at him with eyes the size of Texas.
"Angel, did you need something?" Jack asked
"I…we…" Angel began stuttering "You guys get dressed, I can't talk to you looking like this. It's too distracting."
Jack began laughing while Kennedy just continued to stare at Angel. Angel turned around and walked out the door.
"Um…baby. Can I have some of that blanket please?" he asked. Kennedy looked over at him.
"How could you just sit there?" she yelled.
"What was I suppose to do?" he asked laughing "You took everything off my bed. You were the one who actually had something to cover yourself up in."
"Do you not know how to lock your door?"
"Well it's kind of hard when I have your body up against me. I kind of wasn't thinking about locking the door or anything but you for that matter."
Kennedy laughed "Come here." He replied smiling. Kennedy waddled over to him with the blankets still wrapped around her body. He pulled her so close to him that they fell back on the bed.
"Baby, we have to get up now. Angel needs to tell us something." Kennedy replied. Jack shook his head and began kissing her "You can't keep doing this to me Jack. It's not right."
"It's not right?"
"Yeah, you're so cute, did you know that?"
Jack nodded his head and smiled. "You're cute too that's why we aren't moving."
A loud bang came on the door causing Kennedy to jump. Jack laughed "We are coming!" he yelled.
"Hurry your ass up!" Angel yelled.
"Shutup!" Jack yelled, but Kennedy leaned down and kissed him before moving. "No, baby don't listen to him."
Kennedy laughed "We need to get up anyways." She grabbed his hand and pulled him up. They grabbed their clothes off the floor before getting dressed. Jack opened the door to his bedroom and saw Angel standing at the top of the stiars
"Whats wrong with you?" Jack asked
"You better not let ma find out about you guys. You know she will put a stop to it immediately."
"And you should be talking. Having Sofi over here almost everynight doing god knows what in your room." Jack replied
"That's beside the point." Angel replied "Anyways….ma wants ya'll to come downstairs. This woman and her two daughters moved in beside us. She wants us to go over and meet them and all this shit. Why do we always have to be the nice family."
Jack and Kennedy laughed "Look who our mother is and then you can answer that question." Jack replied "Besides, its good to be nice neighbors."
"Right." Angel replied "Just go downstairs and eat breakfast. I have a feeling we wont be eating until later on tonight. We are suppose to be helping them move in."
Jack groaned as he grabbed Kennedy's hand and went downstairs "Hey sweethearts. Did you two sleep good?" Evelyn asked placing plates on the table. Jack looked over at Kennedy who was just smiling
"Yes ma'am." Kennedy replied
"Well good, because we have a long day ahead of us. We have neighbors living beside us now and I told them we would help them move in today. Now eat up and go outside. The moving van is waiting."
"Yes ma'am." They replied in unison. As they finished eating their breakfast Jack made his way to the door "I'll be right back. I need to get something. You go ahead." Kennedy replied. Jack leaned over and kissed her before moving outside. Kennedy ran upstairs and grabbed her bag full of her personal belongings and ran to the bathroom.
Jack walked outside to see a huge moving van sitting in the middle of the street. He followed his brothers over to the house. He saw a little girl standing next to her mother who was talking to Evelyn. He walked towards the van and saw a figure standing inside. "Hi, I'm Laiken. You must be one of the boys who lives beside us."
Jack looked at the girl who was standing in front of him. She had a long blonde hair down to her butt, she had very tan skin, and had legs for days. "I'm Jack. You're right, I'm one of the boys that lives beside you. We came over to help you move in."
"Thanks for your help."
"No problem. How old are you?"
"I'm 18. You?"
"I'm 17. Will you be going to Detroit High?"
"Yeah, I am suppose to start Monday."
"That's cool. Well maybe we can hang out or something. I can show you around if you would like." Jack replied smiling.
"Yeah that would be great. And I told my mother that I would hate it here because I would no anyone. Who would have known that I would have a very nice neighbor willing to show a stranger around."
"Well hey it's the least I can do." Laiken smiled at him before grabbing a box and taking to the house. Jack looked towards the house to see if Kennedy was coming, but she wasn't in sight. He leaned down and grabbed a box and brought it into the house. He followed Laiken back out to the van. "So where did you move here from?" Jack asked
"New York. My mom was transferred here with her work."
"New York? I have always wanted to go there."
"You should some time. It's the best place to live. Tons of shopping."
Jack laughed "You sound just like a girl."
"Well, what do you expect?"
Jack laughed again.
Kennedy walked outside and looked for Jack. She couldn't find him anywhere until she saw her walk out of the van with a girl next to him. She watched as he laughed at the girl. Kennedy couldn't help but feel jealous. She walked over to them. "Hey." She replied. Jack looked up at her "Hey baby." Jack replied
"Hi, I'm Laiken." Laiken held out her hand.
Kennedy looked at her and smiled "Hi, I'm Kennedy."
"She moved here from New York. She will be going to school with us on Monday."
"Oh that's great. I'm sure you will love it here."
"Yeah I hope so. Jack's going to show me around on Monday. So hopefully I can find some shopping."
Kennedy looked over at Jack who was grabbing boxes "Yeah, thought I would be the nice neighbor and help her out a little."
"Yeah…" Kennedy replied. She bent down and grabbed boxes and took them into the house
"Is that your girlfriend?" Laiken asked
"Yeah, she just moved her about a month ago from California."
"Well I guess me and her need to do some shopping together. I heard California has some of the best shopping."
Jack laughed "Yeah, well her birthday is in 2 weeks and I wanted to do something very special for her. Maybe you can help me find her something. You guys seem a like and I know that you would know just what she wants." Laiken laughed
"Yeah I would love to help."
"Good, I thought I was going to have to do this all by myself. I have 3 brothers who know nothing about shopping or gifts."
"Well, I'll be glad to help. I love buying gifts for people. Are you having a party?"
"Naw probably not. I'll probably just take her out and do something at home with the family. You can come over if you want. You can meet our best friend Jenna. I'm sure you would love her too. You girls should just move in together."
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"It would be like a big sleepover every night."
Laiken laughed again. She bent down to pick up a box but it was too heavy and fell on her finger. "Shit!" she yelled. Jack rushed over to her. Just as Kennedy walked out of the house she saw Jack holding onto Laikens hand. "What the hell?" she said to herself.
"That girl is gorgeous." Bobby replied walking out of the house with Jerry and Angel right behind him.
"Yeah she's pretty hot." Angel replied
"You guys can shut up now." Kennedy replied
"Do I sense some jealousy miss Kennedy?" Bobby asked
"No, I mean just because Jack is holding some girls hand doesn't mean that I am jealous. I mean just because he is making her laugh and is going to show her around on Monday doesn't mean anything." Kennedy replied. She saw all 3 brothers staring at her "maybe…" she replied
"Don't worry baby girl, he loves you. He talks about you all the time. He wouldn't just dump you some girl right in front of you. Jack isn't like that at all." Angel rpelied
"Angel, don't ever call me that again." Kennedy replied.
"Let's just finish all this shit so I can go home and sit down." Bobby replied.
Kennedy sighed before going back to the van. "Are you ok?" Jack asked still holding the girls hand
"Wow I didn't know how heavy that box was. I'm ok." Laiken pulled her hand away.
Kennedy stood at the bottom of the van and just stared at Jack and Laiken. She grabbed a box and stormed into the house. "Thanks." She heard Laiken say. She turned around and saw Jack grab the box she dropped on her hand. He walked into the house as Kennedy was leaving. "Hey baby, you ok?" he asked
"Yeah its just hot." Kennedy lied. She walked past him and back outside.
"You children take a break. I just made to ice cold lemonade." Laikens mother replied with a tray of lemonade in her hand.
"So Laiken are you excited about going to school Monday?" Evelyn asked
"Yeah I guess. I mean who gets excited about going to school." Laiken replied as Jack began laughing
"Well it just so happens that Kennedy loves going to school." Jack replied still laughing. Kennedy just looked at him before excusing herself from the table.
"If you will excuse me I need to use the bathroom." Kennedy replied rushing back over to the Mercer household. Bobby, Angel, and Jerry were the only ones who noticed something was wrong.
"I'll go talk to her." Bobby replied. He set down his drink and walked over to the house. He walked in and saw Kennedy sitting on the stairs. "You alright?"
"Does it look like I am alright?"
Bobby flinched a little to not say something back "I'm sorry that he embarrassed you like that."
"I don't want to be jealous Bobby, but its so hard. That girl is beautiful and Jack is gorgeous. I mean they look so cute together and I hate to say it."
"But you know what she doesn't have?"
"What?"
"Jack. You know how nice he is. He's probably not even knowing how what he is doing. He probably just thinks he is being nice to the new girl."
"I guess he has the tendency of liking new girls."
"Come on Kennedy!" Bobby yelled "That boy is in love with you. Do you not see that? He was with you everyday while you were in the hospital. He almost went to jail for you. He would do anything for you. Do you not see that at all?"
"Can anyone ever be on my side?"
"Theres not sides to this situation. He loves you. You need to see that."
"I do see that. I see that all the time, but it just seems like when a beautiful girl comes into our lives that he just shuts me out like I'm not even there."
"He introduced you as his girlfriend."
"No, he introduced me as Kennedy."
"Please don't treat him like this ok. He doesn't deserve this and you know it. I think you are overreacting just a little bit. Talk to him. See for yourself. It wouldn't hurt to find out what he is really feeling. Don't let this get to you ok. Please, you have gone through enough to put yourself through all this shit again."
Kennedy smiled "I just don't want to lose him."
"You will lose him if you keep acting like this."
Before Kennedy could answer she heard laughing outside. She quickly got up from the stairs and moved over to the door. Jack and Laiken walked in laughing. "Hey, we were just coming to look for you. We are going to go to the movies. Do you want to come?" Jack asked
"You decided to go to the movies?" Kennedy asked
"Yeah, Laiken was talking how bad she wanted to see 'The Decent' and I told her we should go and see it tonight."
Kennedy looked over at Bobby was had a confused look on his face. "So you want to go or not?" Jack asked
"Um….I think Jenna wanted to do something tonight with me." Kennedy lied
"Well invite her along too. We could all just hang out." Jack replied. Kennedy nodded her head. She looked over at Bobby who just shrugged his shoulders before moving to the phone. As she was dialing Jenna's number, she felt her hand begin to shake. "Hey you." Jenna answered the phone
"Jen, its Kennedy."
"Hey girl. Whats up?"
"Do you want to go to the movies with me, Jack, and this girl Laiken tonight?"
"Excuse me? Girl?"
"Yeah, we are going to see 'The Decent'." Kennedy looked over at Laiken and Jack who were sitting on the couch
"Is she pretty?"
"Yeah, I heard it was good."
"Do I need to kill someone?"
"Yeah, you might want too."
"Yeah I'll go. Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'll see you in a few."
"Ok, I'll be there in a few minutes. I'll bring my knife too." Kennedy laughed before hanging up the phone. "She'll be here in a few minutes. I am going to go upstairs and freshen up a bit."
"Trying to impress anyone?" Jack asked smiling.
"Maybe." Kennedy replied. She moved over to the stairs.
"She is beautiful Jack." Laiken replied. Jack smiled
"Yeah she is."
"You guys are cute together. I wish my boyfriend moved here with us but I had to leave him back in New York. Hopefully when I go and visit my dad we can get together but I doubt everything will be the same."
"Well I'm sure he will be waiting on you."
Laiken smiled "I hope so."
Kennedy made her way back down the stairs when she heard a knock on the door. She rushed to the door and embraced Jenna in a hug before Jenna could open her mouth. "Hey to you too." Jenna replied tensing up and patting Kennedy on the back
"I am so happy that you are here." Kennedy replied pulling her in and shutting the door.
"So where is she?" Jenna whispered.
"Her and Jack are sitting on the couch watching tv."
"I'm sure its nothing."
"Yeah, me too." Kennedy replied rolling her eyes. She heard footsteps coming towards them. "So you ready for the movie? I heard it suppose to be scary." Kennedy replied
"Yeah I did too. All I know if you better sit next to me. I get scared very easily."
"Hey Jen!" Jack leaned over and hugged his friend. "Jen, this is Laiken. She just moved here from New York."
"Hi." Jenna replied "Its nice to meet you."
"Yeah you too. I have heard a lot about you."
"You guys ready to go to the movies?" Kennedy asked.
"Yeah, just let me go tell my mom and I'll be all set." Laiken replied. "I'll be right back." Laiken walked outside.
"So what do you guys think?" Jack asked
"She seems nice." Jenna replied
"Yeah, she seems nice." Kennedy replied repeating Jenna. "We need to hurry or the movie is going to start without us."
"Ok, I'm ready. Let's go." Laiken replied poking her head in the door. Kennedy grabbed Jack's hand and walked outside. As they were walking outside, he let go of her hand and opened the door for Laiken. Kennedy felt her mouth tighten. Jenna saw this and looped her arm through Kennedys "Breathe." Jenna replied. Kennedy gave a soft smile to Jenna before getting inside the car.
