And here comes Chapter 4, and I still don't own Kickin' It. :(
Chapter 4
Jack's POV:
I walked out of Frosty's with Maci on my hip and got her settled into her car seat. We sat in silence for a couple of minutes for a couple of minutes, waiting for Kim to come outside, when Maci spoke up from the back seat. "Jack do you like my mommy?"
I sucked in a breath too quickly and choked. "Umm...Maci, only as a friend. I promise." My breathing patterns started returning to normal after I confessed that, but then i thought of the Kim I left seven years ago. I don't know what it was, but she reminded me so much of her, that it almost hurt. "Maci let me tell you about a mistake I made, that ruined me forever."
*Begin Flashback*
We were all working out in the dojo when Bobby Wasabi made one of his "grand" entrances. This one had him riding in on a bronze chariot pulled by zebras. It was as tacky as he was rich. "Guess what you guys? I have a new movie that is fixing to begin filming. It's going to be called Junkyard Ninjas and I am taking one of you guys to become my new sidekick Tommy Tsunami!"
We were all really excited, except for Kim who looked like she could puke. "Kim are you ok?" She looked up at me, her eyes glazed over and she was as pale as a ghost, but she still said she was fine. " Why don't you sit down for a bit. Maybe your just over exerting yourself." She nodded and sat down on some mats near the back of the dojo.
"So who is going to be Tommy," Milton asked Bobby.
"Oh Come ON Milton," Rudy said, "I think we all know who it's going to be."
"Tommy Tsunami will be played our very own Jack Brewer."
Rudy smiled as he walked up to Bobby and placed his arm around Bobby's shoulders. "See Milton, I told you he would pick- Wait did you just say Jack?!"
"Yes Rudy, I said Jack. Jack, we will be filming for the next seven months in LA. You don't have to worry about a hotel seeing as Seaford is only an hour away from LA, but a limo will pick you up every morning to get you and take you to work. You get weekends off, but don't plan for too much because we will be making public appearances to promote our movie. So you ready Jack?"
Everyone looked at me. This was a big chance and I really didn't want to blow it. But then I looked back at Kim. She and I have been together for almost three years now, and our three year anniversary fell right into one of the filming dates. "Ya, I'll do it, but on two conditions. I get have one off day a week, in Seaford, and I get January 13th off for mine and Kim's three year anniversary."
Bobby and Rudy had tears coming down their cheeks. "Jack that was so touching. You really do care about the little people," Rudy said crying into Bobby Wasabi's shoulder. "You have a deal Jack!" Bobby said crying harder too, then blew his nose into Rudy's hair. We all looked at them disgusted. "Bobby that was disgusting," Rudy said in between sobs.
I looked back at Kim who looked like she was about to pass out. "Hey Rudy, I'm taking Kim home. Bobby what time do I need to be ready tomorrow?" I looked back at the sobbing mess of karate warriors and Bobby held up a five. "Come on Kim," I said as I helped her up and carried her out of the dojo.
Seven months went by and we had two weeks to until the premiere of Junkyard Ninjas. Mine and Kim's date a couple of weeks ago for our three year anniversary had went great, and we managed to get in a little fun time into it to. *Wink, Wink* But when the premiere for the movie came, she was sick again and could accompany me to it.
Bobby wasn't too thrilled about me going to the premiere alone, so he set me up with the fight choreographer's daughter who was about nineteen, a year older than me. She was a bottle blonde, you could see her roots showing, and was as smart as piece of paper. You could tell she had had everything handed to her on a silver platter, and I wasn't happy with Bobby about this, but I had to go along with it.
I had to pose with her on the red carpet they had set out. That went fine, so I hoped that the movie would go smoothly too. But I was wrong, it went way worse.
Throughout the whole movie she kept trying to grab my hand. I kept slapping it away and after a few minutes, she finally quit. Or so I thought. Next thing I know her hand is on my knee and is slowly moving up and down my thigh. She kept going farther and farther up until finally I got fed up with it and tried to get up to go get a drink. But she stopped me saying that she would go get me one. I told her sure, I would do anything as long as she was away from me.
I got about ten minutes of peace before she came back with two long neck bottles of beer. "How the hell did you get a hold of those? And we're underage, IT'S ILLEGAL!" I whisper scream at her. "Calm your tits Karate Kid," She says, "It's a private party no one's going to care if the star has one or two drinks." I looked at her like she was an idiot. "Come on pretty boy just one."
"Fine," I say to her, finally making her shut up. I took a sip. It wasn't good, but it wasn't bad either, so I kept drinking. I kept drinking throughout the last hour of the movie and it felt like my bottle never got empty. But when the movie was over, I looked down and there was five empty beer bottles sitting on the floor. I tried to stand, but found that I was too drunk to do that.
"Here Jack, let me help you," She said putting her arm under me. "My limo is outside and we can drop you off at your hotel." I looked up at her. My vision was so blurred, it looked like there was five of her. I gently nodded, which to me felt like I was head banging at a rock concert. She carefully placed me in her limo and I passed out cold.
I woke up in my hotel room, but something felt off. I rolled over onto my right side and there She was laying in my bed...naked. What the freak?I rolled back over and gently made my way out of bed to go pee, when I realized I was naked too. CRAP! I grabbed my boxers and cell phone and made a bee line to the bathroom. I slipped on my boxers and dialed Jerry's number.
"Yo, Yo what up Jack? How was the premiere?"
"Horrible," I said gripping my head. I had a hangover headache and the sobs that were now starting to escape my mouth were not helping any.
"Tell Dr. Jerry what's wrong." I smiled at his ridiculousness and then told him the long awful story starting from Bobby telling me that I had to go with her to me waking up and find her naked in my bed. Jerry paused for a moment on the other end then he spoke up, "Dude that's rough. You gonna tell Kim?"
Oh shoot I forgot all about Kim. Crap that sounds bad. "Dang it. I can't tell her, and no Jerry you can't tell her either. It will crush her. Crap. Crap. Crap." I said as new tears started forming.
"What do you mean neither one of us is going to tell her? She is your GIRLFRIEND dude she deserves to not be lied to. What if she finds out from someone else and it comes around and bites you in the butt.?"
"She will be even more upset if i do tell her," I retaliated.
"Dude you have gotta tell-"
"Jerry no! And you can't either. I gotta go, I need to get her out of here before Bobby finds out."
I ended the call before Jerry could say anything else. I knew it was wrong to do that to Jerry and to keep a secret like this from Kim, but I was doing this for her own protection. I walked out of the bathroom and She was fully clothed and sitting on the corner of my bed facing the bathroom. "Hey Jackie," she said with a sickening smirk on her face, and I wasn't having that.
"OUT!" I yelled causing her to jump a couple of inches in the air.
She looked at me confused. "What do you mean Jackie?" She was highly irritating me.]
"I mean what I said. I want you out now! And I never want to see you again!"
She looked at me shocked. "Gosh, all I was trying to do was loosen you up a little and give you a night of pleasure. And in return I'm getting kicked out?"
I was beyond irritated by this time and I was going to get my point out and across to her. "One, last night was a mistake. Two, I do not need to be loosened up." I walked over to the door, opened it, and gestured for her to leave. "And three, I have a girlfriend. Now get out."
She walked out of the room with a pout on her face, but before she left for good, she turned around and said, "Good luck explaining this one to your girlfriend." And with that I slammed the door in her face.
The tears started flowing again as I made my way to the corner of the room. I slowly sat down and cried for about ten minutes before I could finally calm myself down. I got the rest of my clothes on and stripped the bed, trying to get rid of the horrible things that happened between those sheets, when my cell phone started ringing. I looked down and found it was Bobby Wasabi calling. "Jack speaking," I said answering it in the clearest voice I could muster up.
"Jack! Jack! JACK!"
"What Bobby," my morning wasn't going well and so far Bobby wasn't making it any better.
"Guess what?! They want to do a three movie series about Tommy Tsunami and they want you to play him again! They will take about six years to make in total and this will definitely launch your career. All I need is a yes from you Jack. So what do you say buddy?"
I paused for a moment. It's a once in a lifetime chance and I should take it, but what about Kim? These past few months were already difficult, but six years? "Bobby," I said sighing, "I'll do it."
"Oh thank gosh," Bobby said letting out a sigh of relief. "Well, I'll see you in Miami in a week."
"Miami? A week? Bobby wait!" But he had already hung up. Four years in Miami without my friends, four years without Kim. Kim...What am i going to do. I pulled out my cell phone and sent a text to Kim: Meet me in the courtyard between the dojo and Falafel Phil's at two. She replied with and I got my things together and left.
I got there at two o'clock sharp and there she was sitting in a chair at a table. When she saw me she stood up and gave me a quick hug. "I have something to tell you," we both said at the same time. "You go first," she said laughing. I hated that I was about to kill this happy Kim.
"We need to take a break." And just like I predicted, her face fell.
"Wha- Why Jack?" This was horrible.
"I'm fixing to start a movie series in Miami. I'm going to be gone for six years. I don't want you to get hurt from the long distance, so I think we should take a break."
Her face completely broke my heart, her eyes were glistening with tears and her cheeks were turning pink, but this had to be done.
"But Jack I'm-"
"Kim, no"
"Jack I-"
"Kim, I can't"
"But-"
"Kim, NO!" I yelled, probably a little too loud.
She wrapped her arms around her stomach as the tears started flowing. I looked at my watch which read ten after, and my mom wanted me home by 2:30 so that I could start packing. "I have to go," I said as I turned away and left her crying.
*End Flashback*
I heard the car door opening and turn to see Kim getting into the car. She turned around to look at Maci and said, "I don't know what you did, but you put her to sleep and very rarely does she sleep."
I turned around, and sure enough, Maci was asleep in her car seat.
Chapter 4 is now finished. My updates will come when I can try and get them up. I'll try for maybe once or twice a week, but we will see. Oh and the reason for Kim being sick at the beginning of the flashback will be explained in the next chapter.
