I was really surprised by responses of readers because I thought people wouldn't like it so much because it suggests Jack to be with someone else besides Kim... NOT THAT I WOULD EVER SUPPORT JACK WITH SOMEONE ELSE BESIDES KIM BECAUSE I LOVE KICK! I'm also incredibly flattered by the responses and reviews I have been getting. I'm now going to carry on with the story now because I've blabbered on, but if you really like my story then please please REVIEW!
"So would you like to go on a date?" Taylor asked Jack
Jack just stood there speechless not knowing what to say
"So would you?"
"I... I... I don't know what to say."
"Well my ideal answer would be yes but from the surprised look on your face, I'm guessing you're not going to say that?"
"Taylor-"
"Please don't do that."
"Do what?"
"Try to cushion the blow because I'm telling you I'll be fine."
"No seriously Taylor, I... I like you-"
"Really?" Taylor interrupted "Then why won't you go out with me?"
"It's..."
"Complicated." Jack and Taylor said in unison
"Is it because of your ex-girlfriend?"
"How do you know about her?"
"Jerry told me a little about her."
"Like what?"
"That she moved away to Japan to the Otai academy so she must be great at karate."
"She is."
"But not as good than you."
"I don't know, she's really good."
"Well you got the scholarship there too didn't you but why did you not take it?"
"Because I had everything I wanted here in Seaford."
"Then why did she leave?"
"Because she thought it was too good and opportunity to pass and I told her to apply, that I'd been fine if she left."
"Ah ha." Taylor replied "I also know you still have feelings for her."
"What?!" Jack said with his voice going higher "Why would you think that?"
"Because it's obvious. You won't go out with me because it's complicated which means there's another girl and you keep her picture in your locker." Jack nodded along to what she was saying "And Jerry told me."
"What has Jerry not told you?" Jack asked making Taylor chuckle slightly
"Don't worry Jack, it doesn't matter."
"It does. Jerry and Milton were arguing about whether I should ask you out or not."
"What did they say?"
"Jerry said I should get over Kim just in case she does and Milton says that I should wait for her." Jack replied
"What does your heart say?" Taylor asked
"I don't know. It's saying so many different things that I'm ignoring it at the moment like I am with Milton and Jerry."
"Well...when you figure out what to do, let me know okay?"
"Thanks Taylor, you're great." He said bringing her in for a hug
Jack then left and Taylor went inside to see that Jerry and Milton were still arguing.
"Milton! Jerry! Stop arguing and Milton, come help me." Rudy said taking Milton into the storage room
"That was quite a loud argument." Taylor said
"Was it? I didn't know, I was too busy talking to Milton about Jack and... something."
"So Jerry, you think Jack and I should get together right?"
"Yeah- how do you know about that?" Jerry said
"Jack just told me when I... asked him out."
"You asked him out?" Jerry asked "What did he say?"
"He said he doesn't know and he'll tell me when he does."
"Well, I have an idea that would help him figure out the answer much faster." Jerry said arching one eyebrow
"Why do I feel like it will be an evil plan?"
"Because I raised my eyebrow, like this." Jerry said doing it again making Taylor laugh
10 Minutes Later
"And that's the plan." Jerry finished
"That's very devious." Said Taylor
"I know."
"I don't know if I can do it."
"Oh come on Taylor. Or are you too Swathmore to do this?"
"Okay I'll do it."
"Thank you." Jerry said "So, step 1 commences."
"I can't believe I'm doing this."
"Well believe it Swathmore."
"Now go and do what you need to do to achieve phase 1." Said Jerry sending her away
"Jerry!" Milton shouted
"Yeah."
"Rudy wants me to apologise for arguing with you earlier."
"Thanks."
"You too."
"What for?"
"For arguing."
"Fine."
"Say it."
"Say what."
"Sorry."
"That's okay."
"I give up." Said Milton
Later That Day
"Hey Kim!" Jerry said on VideoChat
"Hi Jerry what do you want?"
"I just wanted to talk to you."
"Jerry, the last time you just wanted to talk with me. I lost $30, my bike and you tried to talk me into taking my shirt off."
"It was your fault."
"How was it my faul- So what do you want Jerry?" Kim said "And can you make it quick because I'm going to go meet a friend."
"What's their name?"
"Casey."
"Doesn't sound very Japanese."
"Because it's not. It's American."
"Is your friend a boy or a girl."
"Does it matter?"
"It probably would to Jack."
"Jack's not there is he?"
"No I don't know where he is."
"Good."
"Trying to avoid your boyfriend?"
"No, I'm talking with him tonight on VideoChat."
"Hey Kim." Came a voice from Kim's side
"Oh hi Casey."
"Oh so that's Casey."
"Casey this is my friend Jerry."
"Is he the one you-" Casey said
"No." interrupted Kim
"Can we go then."
"Sure."
"Jerry, can we talk later?"
"Sure." Said Jerry smiling then logged off
"Jerry? Why are you smiling?" Taylor said coming over
"Phase 1 achieved." Jerry smiled
"What did you do?"
"I'll tell you later." Jerry said "How long is it until Jack's afternoon workout?"
"About 10 minutes." Taylor asked "Why?"
"Phase 2 begins."
I'm going to leave it there because I need something for other chapters and I'm sorry that it's later than I thought it would be because I had my exams, then my birthday and two exams on my birthday. But next week I have a week off and hopefully I'll get more done then but straight afterwards I have work experience for two weeks, I'll write it then but I might not publish then though. I hope you enjoyed the chapter and if you did REVIEW! Byeeee!
