So I know I've been updating really randomly lately. Just for sticking by the story and by me, I'm going to make back-to-back updates! Enjoy!

"Kim!" Amy called.

The little 4 year old stumbled downstairs to her mother. Amy picked her up and sat her down on her lap.

"What are you always doing up there? I always told you that the room upstairs is going to be your room when you're older. For now you're sleeping with me and daddy." Amy said, laughing.

"I'm sorry, mommy."

"It's ok, sweetie."

"Amy!" David interrupted. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Of course, honey."

Amy put Kim down.

"Mommy? Why are you and daddy together?" She asked.

"Because we love each other."

"What's 'Love'?"

"Love is a special feeling you get when you're with someone." She explained. "Everyone has someone else in this world that they love. When you get older and meet that special someone, you'll understand."

With that said, Amy went to her and David's bedroom. Kim started to walk upstairs when she heard a scream and something fall...

Beep beep! Beep beep!

Kim jumped out of bed at the sound of her alarm clock. She quickly hit the stop button and rubbed her eyes. When she looked around the room, she almost had a heart attack. Right there laying next to her was no other then...

Jack Brewer.

"Jack!" Kim yelled.

Jack jumped up.

"What?" He asked.

"What are you doing here?!"

Jack looked around.

"I... Uhh... I don't remember..."

"Well, it doesn't matter. If he catches you, we're both dead!"

Kim pulled Jack up and he climbed out the window.

"See you at school." Kim said.

"See you."

Jack climbed down the tree and ran home. Kim watched him go.

I can't love him. I just can't! It would never work...

Kim got ready and went downstairs. She decided she was going to school today. When she got downstairs, she grabbed a cereal bar from the cabinet and walked to the door. Her father stopped her.

"Who were you talking to this morning?" He asked, sternly.

"No one." Kim said, a little nervous.

She walked past him and opened the door to leave.

"You know if I ever catch you sneaking someone in here, you and him will be taking a little punishment, right?"

"Well you don't have to worry about it."

Without another word, Kim left and sighed. She knew what David was capable of, and if she wanted to keep Jack away from him, she had to separate herself from him.

At school, Jack stood at his locker. Grace snuck up behind him.

"Hey, Jack!" She yelled.

Once again, Grace startled him.

"Ok, you really need to stop doing that." He said, smiling.

"Sorry, again. You got lucky. I told Rudy that you might not be at Karate practice a lot because your mom is sick and you need to take care of her. And being the great actress I am, he bought it! I'm a great friend, aren't I? I believe a thank you is in order..."

"Thanks, Grace. I owe you one."

"You bet you do! So how is the magnificent Chloe?"

"She's good."

Grace frowned.

"That's all I get? A 'she's good'? C'mon! You have to give me more than that!" She begged.

"Well, I don't really know what else to say!"

"Tell me her hobbies! Favorite color? Is she pretty? Stuff like that!"

Kim walked in the school and immediately caught Jack's eye.

"Uhh... Maybe later, Grace."

Jack ran over to Kim and pulled her into an empty hallway before Grace could see.

"Oh. Hey, Jack. So, what happened when you got home?" Kim asked.

"I told my mom I was at a friend's and accidentally fell asleep. And if you think about it, it's not a lie."

"I guess not. Was she worried?"

"Turns out she fell asleep early last night and didn't even know I was gone until I got back this morning."

"Well, that's good. So, uhh... I need to tell you something."

"Sure. What is it?"

"Uhh..."

The Group appeared in the hallway.

"Jack!" Grace yelled. "Why are you talking to... 'her'?"

"I... Umm..."

"Why shouldn't he talk to me, Grace?!" Kim asked.

"Because he's our friend! Not yours!"

Kim looked at Jack with disbelief.

"You're their friend?" She asked him.

Kim got her answer from Jack's lack of response.

"Well, I'm sorry, Grace. I'll make sure I never talk to him again." Kim said, sadly.

As tears gathered in her eyes, she walked away from Jack with her head down.

"Kim..." Jack started.

She quickly turned around.

"It's ok, Jack. Besides it's not like we were ever really friends." She said.

Grace rolled her eyes as Kim left.

"Looks like the loser was trying to make a friend." Jerry laughed.

"If Kim thinks she can prove you wrong about her being a freak, Grace, she's got another thing coming!" Milton said.

The Group laughed and started to leave.

"You coming, Jack?" Eddie asked.

"Huh? Oh, yea. I'm coming."

Jack walked off with The Group.

Later at lunch...

Kim entered the cafeteria, got her food, and looked around. All the tables were full, so she sat at one with a bunch of students she didn't know. As soon as she sat down, everyone else got up and moved to a different table. Kim was used to this, of course. So she just pretended nothing happened. She heard laughing and when she looked across the room, The Group were all laughing and glancing at her. Jack was sitting with them, but he just sat there staring at Kim. She rolled her eyes at all of them and turned back around. But a second later, Grace picked up her mashed potatoes.

"Hey, Kim!" She called.

Kim turned around and Grace threw the mashed potatoes right in her face. The whole cafeteria, (except Jack), burst out laughing. Jerry stood up with his french fries in his hands.

"Yea! Food fight on Kim Crawford!" He yelled.

Everyone, (except Jack), cheered, picked up their food, and threw it at Kim. All she did was sit there for a few seconds, but then she got up and started to walk out the cafeteria. Before she left, she turned around and looked at Jack. He just sat there and stared at her with an "I'm sorry" look. Kim started to cry, (which no one saw due to all the food in her face), and ran out the cafeteria.

She ran to her locker, got her bag, and ran out the building. She stayed at the skatepark until school ended, and then she started walking home. But before she left the skatepark, Jack caught up to her.

"Kim, wait! Just let me explain!" He yelled.

"Jack, just stop. You were obviously lying to me this entire time so why don't you just go spend some quality time with your real friends, and I'll just go back to my life of just being alone. It's better like that anyways."

"But Kim, I haven't been lying to you this entire time! I..."

"Jack!" Grace called. "Are you going to Karate practice with us today?"

Kim sighed.

"So you haven't been lying. Interesting..."

"Kim..."

"Just go. Get out of my life and never come back."

Kim walked off and Jack sighed. Then he went off with The Group to Karate practice.

Later...

Kim got home and went upstairs to her room to find her dad sitting on her bed with a belt, a bat, and and his clenched fists.

"Kim?" He started. "Why did I get a call from your school saying they have hundreds of witnesses saying you started a food fight?"

Kim gulped. She had a feeling where this was going. But all she knew for sure was that if she saw that bright white light, she was running to it and never looking back...
