Hey y'all! PLEASE READ THIS. First of all, thank you for reviewing! I did not expect to get that many reviews last chapter so thank you! Second of all, a lot of people have been telling me to get Kim and Jack together ASAP, but there's a problem with that. The story is all about Kim's forced marriage to Milton, so Kim and Jack can't get together right away. Also, the sooner they get together, the sooner the story will be over! I promise KICK WILL PREVAIL JUST BE PATIENT. So read and review!

I laid in my bed that night with my head spinning with thoughts. My mind flashed back to when Jack and I were on the dock.

We walked in an awkward silence until we reached a lake. The lake was a beautiful blue and was surrounded by thick grassy forests on three sides. On the other side, there was a dock. We walked to the dock and stood there.

"It's beautiful." I said. I thought I heard Jack say something under his breath, but I couldn't understand it.

What did he mutter under his breath? I thought to myself.

Then it hit me-like a bullet.

Not as beautiful as you.

I laid there shocked. Does Jack like me? Or did I just hear him wrong? Wait-it doesn't matter anyways. Even if he likes me, I'm still destined to marry Milton. Sure I'm getting married next March and its April now. Maybe my feelings for Jack will be gone by then. Did I just admit I had feelings for Jack? Well of course I do! I practically drool over how cute and sweet and kind and funny he is.

I sighed and buried my head in my pillow.

I looked over at the clock. 12:47am. Wow, have I really been laying in my bed thinking about Jack all night? I buried my face in my pillow again and drifted off into a light sleep.

Thump thump thump.

I woke up and looked at the clock. 1:29am.

Thump thump thump.

What was that thumping noise?

It sounded like someone was tapping on the window. Wait-my room is on that second floor! That's not possible. I opened my window and saw...

"Jack?" I whisper yelled, trying not to wake anyone up. He was throwing pebbles up at the window. He climbed up the tree that was right next to my window. He got to the top and I pulled him in.

"Listen Jack." I started. "I'm sorry about the whole lake thing and trying to interfere with you and your mom and-" I was cut off by Jack's hand covering my mouth. He pulled it away and grabbed my hands. Warmth radiated throughout my body and I could feel my cheeks turning pink.

"Kim, I'm sorry about getting mad and yelling at you. I'm so sorry." He said. I smiled and he smiled back. My smile dropped as soon as a noticed the red mark covering his left cheek.

"Jack. What's that?" I said pointing to the red mark.

He sighed. "My mom and I got into a fight and things got bad. That's why I'm here so late. I needed to get out of the house."

I felt so bad for Jack. I hated seeing him hurt. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into a hug; he snaked his arms around my waist. We stood there for a few minutes just enjoying each others company.

"Kim," he whispered into my ear. I felt chills go down my spine. Not a bad kind, but a good kind. The kind that got your heart racing.

"Thank you." He finished.

I just held him tighter. He both pulled away and looked into each others eyes.

"Lets go for a walk." He said.

"Mmkay." I agreed.

He helped me out of the window and we climbed down the tree. We tried not to be loud considering it was almost 2:00 in the morning.

We walked to the park in a comfortable silence. The moon was big, bright, and beautiful.

Not as beautiful as you.

I blushed, remembering what Jack had said at the lake.

"Wow Kim, I didn't even say anything and I'm making you blush." Jack said cockily.

"Oh shut up." I said and gave him a playful punch in the shoulder.

We finally reached the lake that we went to on the picnic. We walked towards the dock and saw on object sitting there. A box? No. A bucket? No. We got a little closer and I saw that it was...

"A picnic basket?" I asked Jack.

He smiled. "Yeah. Since we didn't have much fun on the picnic with our parents, I thought we could have one now." He said with a smile.

He opened the picnic basket and took out a blanket. He set it out on the dock. Jack sat down and patted the spot next to him. I smiled and sat down. He got out another blanket and covered ourselves. I started shivering.

"You cold?" He asked me. I nodded while rubbing my arms, trying to keep warm. He took off his hoodie. He was only wearing a t-shirt underneath. He handed me the hoodie.

"Jack you'll freeze!" I said.

"I'd rather keep you warm then keep myself warm." He said and smiled. I felt my cheeks turning bright red.

"Thanks." I said and I just got lost in those two beautiful brown eyes. I put the hoodie on and smelled his cologne.

I put my head on his shoulder and he wrapped his arm around my waist. He just sat there in a comfortable silence.

I heard him chuckling. I lifted my head off of his shoulder and looked at him with confusion on my face.

"What?" I asked.

"Sorry I- haha- I- I just can't see you marrying Milton." He said. "He's like a dainty little flower and you're so strong." He finished.

I started laughing, then I sighed. "I can't believe my parents are forcing me too marry him." I said glumly.

"I know. If you're getting married, does that mean you're gonna have kids with him?" He said while chuckling.

I cringed at the thought.

"No. No. No. No. Don't even say that." I said while placing my hands over my ears.

"Haha Kim I'm just kidding." He said while pulling my hands off my ears.

"You better be." I said while glaring at him.

He smiled and I smiled back. I could feel my cheeks getting pink. Luckily, he didn't say anything.

Kim is so perfect; I love the way her golden hair shines under the bright moonlight. I love the way her cheeks get pink even when I just smile at her. I also love the way she's her normally herself around me, instead of being the snobby rich girl she has to be around her parents.

"Jack?" I heard Kim say, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Huh?" I said confused.

"You weren't answering me." She said.

"Oh sorry. I was just thinking." I replied.

"About what?" She asked.

"You." I simply stated.

I saw her cheeks turn a bright red and she snuggled herself into my chest while I put my arm around her. Then, we drifted off to sleep.

I woke up to someone shaking me.

"Kim! Kim wake up!"

I opened my eyes, only to find Jack leaning over me, shaking my shoulder. I looked around. We were still on the dock, with a blanket wrapped around us.

"Jack. What time is it?" I asked.

"It's 6:00 in the morning! I have to get you back home!" He said.

I jumped up.

"Jack, my dad gets up at 6:30! He's gonna noticed I'm gone!" I said impatiently.

He threw the blankets back into the basket. He quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me in the direction of my house.

"Come on!" He said.

We reached my house about 15 minutes later. I climbed up the tree near my window and he followed behind me. I got inside the house and pulled him through the window.

"Thanks for a great night Jack." I said and smiled. He smiled back.

"You're welcome." He replied.

"Oh, before I forget, here's your jacket back." I said and went to pull it off. He stopped me.

"No, keep it. It looks good on you." He said and winked. And with that, he hopped out of the window and climbed down the tree. I flopped back onto my bed and dozed off.

Ifinally got home around 6:30. I tried sneaking in the front door only to be stopped by Niles.

"Getting home a little late, don't you think?" Niles asked.

"Sorry I was- uh, well-"

"With Kimberly?" He asked.

"What? Psh no! I was uh, just- just getting some fresh air." I lied.

Niles didn't look convinced. "Mmhmm." He said and rolled his eyes. Then he walked away. I ran my hand through my hair and went to bed.
