CHAPTER 17

Kim's POV

A week later I was released out of the hospital. I found out about Jerry and that whole thing. Jack eventually made up with him so everyone is friends again. Well except Jerry and I. We are friends, it's just really awkward. Then one day, Jerry and I got locked inside the dojo together...I remember his words crystal clear: Kim, im still in love with you.

I guess Rudy thought everyone left because when I got out of the locker room, it was dark. I went over to the door to find that it was locked.

"Damn it!" I yelled while shaking the door viciously.

"What happened?" I thought I was alone...but when I turned my head I saw Jerry. Great. Just great.

"Oh, um we seem to be locked in here. Don't worry, I'll use my phone and call Jack." I pulled my phone out of my bag and once I turned it on, it turned it off. It was dead. I sighed. "It's dead. Can you call him with your phone?"

"Sure." He dialed Jack's number;

Jack, hey could-

*Pause*

Hello? Hello?

"He said he couldn't talk right now. I'll call Milton." Jerry told me.

Within the next 10 minutes we figured out that Jack was busy, Milton wasn't by his phone and neither was Eddie, and that Rudy was babysitting his Niece. So we would be stuck here for a while. Alone. This will be sooo awkward.

I sit down on a stack of mats. "So what now?" I ask him. He lies down in the middle of the dojo floor, folding his hands behind his head.

"I don't know. Kim...I hate how things are weird between us."

"Well that's not exactly my fault considering that I wasn't myself. I didn't know what I was doing."

He sits up. "I'm not saying that it's your fault, I'm just saying that...I don't know. Never mind."

"Spit it out Jerry."

"Do you always keep your promises?"

"What does that have to do with anything? Yeah I keep my promises..."

"Well when you were...the different you, you promised me something. And you broke that promise."

I got up from the mats and crossed my arms. I was getting mad now. "And what did I promise, Jerry?"

Then he stood up. "You promised that you wouldn't forget about what we had! But you did! You left me with a broken heart and I know that there will never be another chance for us, Jack won't let you go. You don't know what it feels like. For someone you love, who loved you back, to suddenly wake up and love your best friend! Kim, I'm still in love with you!" He yells at me.

I loved him? No one told me about that part. I just thought we kissed...

"No one told me that I felt that way- that you felt that way..." I said.

"Because no one KNEW! Just forget it, it doesn't matter anymore. Let's just get out of here." Jerry said while turning away from me.

"It matters to me because your my friend!"

"But that's all I'll ever be." He turned back to me. "Kim, kiss me. Kiss me and tell me that you feel nothing. Then I'll know that you don't love me."

"What!? I'm not going to kiss you."

"Just kiss me!" He yelled as he took a step closer.

"no."

"Kiss me!" He took another step closer.

"NO!" I yelled

"JUST KISS ME!"

So I grabbed his face and kissed him as he put his hands on my back, pulling me closer. It only lasted like 4 seconds.

We pulled back and gasped for air.

"Tell me you felt nothing."

"I felt nothing." I responded.

"Just tell me the truth."

"I said I felt NOTHING!" I yelled at him.

"Fine." He said. He walked to the window and kicked it. Glass shattered everywhere. He then jumped out leaving me in the dark, cold dojo.

The truth is, I felt nothing. I honestly didn't feel anything between us. And I hated how I could potentially lose a friend, if I hadn't already. I just really had to be with Jack right now. So I climbed out of the window, but i scraped my leg on a piece of glass.

"CRAP!" I shouted. There was a line going down my leg filled with blood. I'll just run over to Jack's house and he'll help me.

When I finally got there, I pressed his doorbell. I had to do that a couple times before he finally answered. When he did, he was clutching a phone to his chest.

"Oh hey come on in." So I did. "Kim your leg is bleeding! Let me get you a paper towel. Sorry, I'm on the phone with my parents." He put the phone back to his ear. "Can I call you back in a minute?...Okay love you too."

I hop onto his countertop and swing my legs like a little girl.

"What happened?" He asked while bringing over hydrogen peroxide and paper towels.

"Well Jerry and I were locked inside the dojo," I could see Jack tense up. Then he came to the realization.

Oh so that's why Jerry called me! I just thought he wanted to talk." I laugh a little.

"Anyway, he broke the window and so the glass cut me."

"oh."

After Jack heals my wound, he picks me up and throws me over his shoulder. Then he chucks me on the couch. He pulls the lever on the side to make the couch into a bed. I make a little scream because it makes a loud noise that I wasn't expecting.

Jack throws himself on top of me and we start kissing. I smile through the kiss to let him know that I'm happy. He flips me over so I'm on him and we continue to kiss. His hands are on my lower back, but he knows not to go any lower than that.

We make out until we get too tired. Jack's arm is protectively around my stomach, with a blanket over us. I love being around him, and I just love him.

Jack and I ended up spending the night on his couch, cuddled up together. I wake up and try to be quiet as I go into the bathroom. I take my phone out of my pocket and text Jerry.

Hey.

Jerry I'm sorry.

I know ur reading these bc it says so on my phone! just answer me!

what do u want

I'm sorry. i just want to talk to you. I feel awful. And ur right, i have no idea how you feel. Im not worth ruining Jack and ur friendship. Honestly, im not.

But to me your worth everything. And your worth everything to him. Kim I loved you. and you loved me. I was stupid to even start anything with you, i knew how it would end...so really this is my fault. I'm sorry for getting mad. I just have mixed feelings right now.

Its ok Jerry. and I really hate how things r awkward between us, too. Can we just try to forget the yelling at each other?

Of course. And please never, ever cut yourself again. EVER

I promise. And this time I mean it.

I felt so relieved that Jerry doesn't hate me. To be honest, even I would hate me. I feel like a terrible person. How could I do that to such a nice guy like Jerry?

I open up the bathroom door and walk to the living room. I see Jack sitting up stretching and yawning.

"Hey. How did you sleep?" He asked me.

"Great. You?"

"Fine." He gets up and kisses my forehead. "I have a question. But I don't want you to think that I don't trust you or anything like that, ok?"

"ok...what is it?" I ask nervously.

"Is there really nothing going on between you and Jerry?" He is avoiding eye contact with me. I turn his head ever so slightly so he is looking at me.

"Jackson Brewer, there is nothing going on between me and him. I love you." And then I kiss him.

"I'm sorry. I know that you wouldn't ever do something like that. I was just paranoid. Jealous, even."

I give an exaggerated gasp as I put my hand on my heart. "Jack, jealous? Why, I never thought-"

He cut me off with a kiss and a laugh. "Oh shut up, beautiful." I blushed. No one has ever said anything so nice like that to me before. I kissed him, wrapping my arms around his neck. After about 2 minutes, thing were getting pretty wild. I jumped up on him, wrapping my legs around his back. He supported me by holding my butt.

He pushed me up against a wall, hard. But it didn't hurt. He moved his lips from my lips to my neck. He sucked on my neck, he was giving me a hickey. It felt really good, so I moaned in pleasure. Then he moved back up to my lips, this time slowly. I let my legs off him, sliding down his body.

Finally he pulled away from me. "Kim I love you. I think your amazing and beautiful, and I'm glad your mine."

I smiled. "I love you too Jack. I'm really glad you stayed in Seaford instead of moving to Paris. But we should probably get ready for practice soon." I start to walk away when I see that he isn't following me. I turn back to him. He looks blankly at me. "You're not going to Paris, right?" I ask.

He grabs my hand. "I know that the news is what got you into trouble in the first place, but Kim...I'm moving to Paris in 2 days."

HAHAAHAHHAHAHAHA WHAT NOW!? LOL. I get that you all love KICK (as do I) but sometimes I get sick of that crappp. So I like to add a twist. So please don't say that you don't want to read this anymore bc it's not all about Kick. K thanks :)

P.S. The next chapter will blow. your. minds. (I hope)
