Next day.. Afternoon
Rudy POV
I was really doubting Kim's decision on not telling Jack about her parents but I understood her choice. Jack and Kim are both going through some difficult times right now and if they think they want to do something, well, that's what they do. Since Kim didn't want me to tell Jack I had to get the other guys together, but not in the dojo. I didn't want to take a chance of Jack seeing us. Jack sometimes comes in early to practice at the dojo so I couldn't talk to the guys there. After i finally figured out how to send a text from my phone, I texted Milton, Eddie and Jerry to meet at my apartment.

Jerry POV
I just came back from my date with Carol when I got a text from Rudy. It said "Can you guys meet me at my apartment ASAP? We need to talk." I noticed that Rudy hadn't sent the text to Jack or Kim. Maybe he wanted to talk about setting them up! I texted him back saying I was on my way.

Milton POV
I was over at Eddie's house when I heard my phone buzz. Seconds later, I heard Eddie's phone also buzz. We checked our phones and it was a text from Rudy.

Eddie spoke up,"Since when does Rudy text?!"

I responded, "I didn't think he knew how to.."

"Obviously, he doesn't. He types you instead of u. Way to be old fashioned,"responded Eddie.

We looked at the text and Rudy's message said, "Can you guys meet me at my apartment ASAP? We need to talk." I wonder what it's about. I hit reply to all when I saw the text was only sent to Jerry, Eddie, and I. Huh, that's weird. What about Jack and Kim? Eddie and I both told Rudy that we would be right over.

Jack POV
Practice didn't start till an hour. I was already bored out of my mind. I decided to go to the dojo and practice a little more. I threw on a random shirts and some jeans and headed out the door. I was on my way to the dojo when I noticed a glimpse of what looked like Jerry.

I called out to him, "Jerry!" but he isn't answer. "Jerry! Wait up!" I think he heard me because glanced in my direction and then took off. Fortunately, I was able to catch up to him because I can run a lot faster than he can. I grabbed his arm and asked, "Where you going Jerry?"

He replied, "Umm, circus! I'm on a d-date with Carol, and w-we're going on a date to the movies. I mean circus. We're going on a date to watch a movie...about a circus."

"Didn't your date with Carol just end?" I questioned suspiciously.

He replied, "Y-yeah, I mean n-no. Umm... No hablo ingles señor," and with that he hastily darted off.

Well that was strange I thought to myself. Then again, Jerry is strange. Well, if he doesn't want to tell me where he's going, thats not my problem. But it was still suspicious. I made my way over to the dojo. Surprisingly, Rudy wasn't inside. He's almost always there. I opened the door with the spare key that he gave me and started to work on my Bo Staff routine.

Jerry POV
I fleed away with answering to Jack, "No hablo ingles señor. " good, Jerry, that was a good one, I thought to myself. If I told Jack I was going to Rudy's apartment, meeting Milton and Eddie there, and thinking up a plan to get him and Kim together, Jack would be sooo mad.

I bolted to Rudy's apartment as fast as I could. When I got there, I saw that Milton and Eddie were already there.

"WHERE WERE YOU?!" Asked all three of them at the same time. Woah, talk about creepy.

"Look, I'm sorry but I ran into Jack on the way here." I explained.

"Ok, what did he say?" questioned Rudy.

"He wanted to know where I was going and since I just have a natural talent to come up with smooth answers, I told him I'm on a date. It's all good." I replied. "Ok, so here's my plan to get Jack and Kim together. First we need to buy a huge hot tub, and then we-" I was cut short by Rudy.

Rudy told me, "Jerry, were not here to set Jack and Kim up... Although, that might be another day."

"Then why are we here?" Eddie asked, as I took a seat.

"I have something to tell you. It's about Kim." Rudy answered back.

"Are you going to tell us that Kim is in looove with Jack!" I said excitedly.

Rudy responded, "No Jerry. Kim is going-"

"Kim's going to kiss Jack!" I exclaimed.

"Oh, for the thousandth time, WE ARE NOT SETTING UP JACK AND KIM. GET THAT IN YOUR BRAIN KID." Rudy screamed at me.

"Screaming, not cool yo!" I mumbeled.

Rudy POV
What a nutcase. This idiot just won't shut up about getting Jack and Kim together. I turned my attention back to Milton, Eddie, and idiot kid.

"Anyways guys, I asked you to meet me here because Kim wanted me to tell you something. As you guys know, Kim's parents have divorced. A few nights ago, when Kim came home from practice, her mom wasn't home, Kim thought her mom was on a date, which she was."

I paused to take a deep breath. They guys were hanging onto my every word. So this is what it feels like to have people listen to you! I shouldn't get used to this..

I continued the story, "Mrs. Rowlings, (Kim's mom went with her maiden name after the divorce) was on a date with Mr. Crawford, Kim's father who used to live in Brazil."

"Wait, so your telling me that The two people who got divorced more than two months ago, went on a date together? Why?! What's the point of a divorce then?" interrupted Eddie.

"Yes Eddie, Kim's mom and dad who got a divorce, went out on a date together. And as for why, nobody will know why. You see, they went on a date to Singing Rain. There was a shooting at Singing Rain and 24 people got injured and 2 people died. Those two people, sadly were, Kim's parents."

Milton interjected, "Oh no! Kim! What happened to her? Who is she staying with? Please don't tell me she's in an orphanage?! "

"Thankfully, Mika's parents took charge and offered to adopt Kim. The adoption should be official in a few months. For the meantime, I want you guys to give Kim sometime alone."

Eddie then asked, "I still don't understand, Why didn't you want to tell Jack?"

I replied, "That, wasn't my decision. It was Kim's. She said that he already has a lot going on and she doesn't want to add more stress to his life. She also didn't want to influence his decision for the scholarship. So don't talk to Jack about this. Don't bring up the subject of parents, Kim, or anything related to what I just told you."

The guys left after they promised not to say anything.

Jacks POV (The guys were still at Rudy' house )
I started working on my bo staff routine and then stopped to take a rest. I lay on the mats for a while thinking about the scholarship. I knew I was most likely going to accept. I only had 4 more days to think about it. Currently, my answer was yes. I looked around the dojo and all the great memories that I've shared with the gang came back to me. I would be leaving behind a lot if I moved. My favorite memory was when I almost kissed Kim at the top of the Hollywood sign. Kim. I wanted to hear her voice again. I pulled out my cell phone and called Kim. It rang several times. She didn't pick up. That's weird, she almost always picks up her cell phone. I called again and she still didn't pick it up. I left a message for her; "Hey Kim! I'm bored and I need entertainment, call me back!" I tried calling at her house but the phone operator said the phone number I'm trying to reach, no longer existed. What?!

Kim POV
I was on my bed in Mika's spare bedroom, which now, was my room. I buried my head deeper into the fluffy pillow and wondered why life hated me. First Mom and Dad get divorced, then Dad moves to Brazil, then Jack's dog Bella dies, then Jack gets a scholarship and he might move to Brazil, and then Mom had to go on a date with Dad, and then they both have to be the only ones in the restaurant to die. Now, on top of it all, my house which is supposed to belong to me, is going to get knocked down. I heard my phone ring and the corners of my mouth didn't even twitch when I heard my "jam". I didn't want to look over to see who it was. After two rings, the person left a message. It was Jack. As much as I wanted to, I didn't have the heart to talk to him.

AN| Aaaww poor Kim! The story of her house will be explained in the next chapter!

Review! Tell me what you thought of this chapter! Please? Pretty please? With a watermelon on top?
