This is part two of the first chapter. Thanks for the uplifting comments.

KIM'S P.O.V

I can't believe that Jack is leaving today, we had such a great these past few days and I know I'm gonna miss him even more than I did when I first moved here. I kind of wish that he could stay here with me until I finish school here because I love Jack so much but I also love karate and Otai Academy is the best martial arts school there is. Having Jack here with me would be the best of both worlds.

"What ya' thinking about?" Jack asked me. I'm currently in his hotel room, taking up all the space on his bed.

"That should go without saying." I whispered. I moved over so that he could lay down next to me.

"Don't worry Kim, we'll be back together before you even know it." Jack said. He laid down next to me and I snuggled into his chest.

"But what if we don't see each other again. We can only talk on the phone once a month, I'm surprised we were able to hang out as much as we did these past days. What if you go back to Seaford and fall in love with someone else." I rambled.

"But what if I don't move on and I spend every hour of every day thinking about YOU?" HE asked. I stared into his eyes. I didn't have the guts to tell him what I really wanted to say. "Because that's what happened when you left and I can guarantee that the same things going to happen when I leave.

"I trust that you mean that but no matter how much I believe that, I also no that people change and so do feelings." I stated.

"Your right Kim, I wont have the same feelings for you when I leave." Jack said. I let one tear slip out but it was gone just as fast as it came. "I'll love you even more because people tend to want what they can't have and not having you in my life is thee greatest pain I could ever feel." Again I let a tear out but I didn't bother to wipe this one away. I let it glide down my cheek and land on Jack's shirt. "To be honest, I tried moving on because I thought the pain of not having you would go away if I found someone that I could love almost as much as I love you but in reality the pain grew because I knew that she wasn't the one fore me. I knew that you were the only person that can make me feel the way I do." My eyes had become a waterfall by the time he was finished. "His shirt was the pond that pond that gathered all of the flowing water.

"Did I really cause you that much pain?" I asked

"Don't take that the wrong way Kim. No matter how much it hurts to not be with you I'm willing to let you go because I know when we find each other again it's gonna feel great. You remember when I got here?" Jack asked. I nodded. "You leaped into my arms and held onto me like a life line, some people might call it a placebo but that truly is the way to heal all of your emotional pain."

"A simple hug doesn't make up for the pain I have put you through." I said.

"Maybe not to you but your presence alone has always made me feel better. Whether I was suffering through the death of a family member or I simply had a cold you would walk through the door and I was no longer sad. Trust me Kimmy, we're gonna make it through this." I smiled and snuggled closer to him.

"I know." I guess I don't really have doubts about us but I just wanted some type of reassurance that I could keep with me until I see him again. "I'm tired." I whispered.

"Then go to sleep," Jack whispered back.

"Okay, just...don't leave me?" I said.

"I'm not going anywhere Kimmy.

"Good." I shut my eyes and let sleep take over my body. The tranquility didn't last for long though because about an hour later Jack woke me up and told me that he had to go to the airport soon. I told him that I would go to the airport with him so once his bags were packed we left the room and signed out of the hotel before catching a cab to the airport. We went through baggage check and security check then sat down outside of his terminal. We had about an hour before his flight was scheduled to board.

"You want to grab something to eat?" Jack asked as we waited.

"Sure." I smiled up at him. 'This is my last hour with Jack before he leaves' I thought to myself as we walked across the airport. We stopped when we saw the only US food chain that I know, Panera Bread, we both got a broccoli cheddar bread bowl with extra sour dough bread. We took our food back to the terminal waiting area and talked while we ate. We finished eating only minutes before his flight was called for boarding.

"That's my cue." Jack sighed.

"I'm gonna miss you." I began tearing up.

"No matter where we go, we'll always be connected." He whispered.

" I'll call you as soon as my sensei gives me my day." I said.

"Cant wait." Jack said. I smiled and pulled him into a long passionate kiss. I made sure it lasted really long at sometime during the kiss, Jack slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out a box that he then slipped into my hand.

"Finale call for flight 782 to Las Angels, California" The lady on the intercom said. Jack and I slowly pulled away and he winked at me before running over to the loading gate. I looked at the tiny box in my hand and smiled as I opened it. I found a ring and a note on the inside the note read,

Dear Kimmy,

I figured you would want a little more then just my words to show you how I feel about you so I took one step forward. This is a promise ring, I promise you that you are the only girl that will cross my mind the whole time your gone and I promise when you get back we'll pick up right where we left off.

Love, Jack

I smiled and put the ring on my figure. I looked up to see Jack still standing in line at the loading gate. He was staring at me with a huge smiled on his face. I watched as his form disappeared down the long walkway to the plane. I watched as his plane took flight. The only thoughts that ran through my head were, I cant wait for my surprise for Jack.

So that's the end of this one, let me know what you think the next chapter probably wont take as long as this one did. I didn't proof this chapter so I apologize if there are a lot of mistakes.
