Morning Chaos

I slowly lifted my eyes to hear tons of yelling. I could hear the faint yelling but I could also hear breathing. I looked down to see Kim still asleep. I looked at the clock and groaned, we had to be out of the house in an hour. I shock Kim awake, well tried. She ended up kicking me in the rib and rolling back over. I grabbed my shirt and slide it on. I walked out to see what all the commotion was. The couple's door was cracked so I looked in and saw a sleeping cuddled person, rolled up in a ball and the lights in the bathroom on.

"Jerry if you don't get up right now I will pull you down the stairs!" Came girlish screams from the bathroom. The bed tossed and turned with a few groans now and then. "We leave in an hour!"

"Wake me up then" A muffled voice came from the messed of sheets.

"NO, you will wake up now!" Grace stood in the bathroom door, wearing a normal pair of shorts and a t-shirt. "Jack, help me" She threw some extra stuff in her luggage and begged. I rolled my eyes and walked over to Jerry. I ripped the covers off and pulled him right off the bed. He groaned and stood up shaking his hair around.

"What the hell-." He looked at me and did a double take. "I'll get up now" He said and I smirked.

"Is Kim up?" Grace asked, sitting on her bag and zipping it up. I shook my head and she groaned. She went to stomp out the door when I quickly got in her way.

"I'll get her up" She rolled her eyes but also smirked. She turned and stood her luggage up.

"Whatever you say, lover boy" I chuckled at her new nickname and turned. I walked quietly through our door and saw Kim still lying in bed.

"Wake up, Kimmy" I said, sitting next to her. I was a bit scared because last time I tried to get her up I ended up getting kicked for trying to pick her up. This time, instead, she just groaned. "Come on, Grace isn't in a good mood."

"I HEARD THAT" I rolled my eyes and heard silent chuckles come from the covers. I pulled them down slowly to reveal her scatter blonde hair and closed eyes. A grin was placed upon her lips where I wished mine were.

"Jack" She whispered. Her hands went around my waist and pulled me down. "Stay with me" I smiled and held her. I smirked as an idea came into my head. I pulled her onto my lap and sat up. She stayed cuddled into my shoulder but wrapped her arms around me. I slowly lifted her up and with my other hand, grabbed her luggage. I left mine in hall as I saw Jerry coming up the stairs. I pointed to it and he rolled his eyes but took it anyways. I put the luggage in the trunk and felt Kim's hand run over my plain white shirt and pull on the collar. I looked at her and saw her rubbing her cheek against my shoulder. She started to rub her forehead against my jaw and her hands went around my neck. I held her tightly and opened the passenger door. I placed her down and buckled her in, that was the easy part. The hard part was to get her head comfortable and to slip my hand off her. I moved her body and tilted it so she was facing the driver's seat and leaning her head.

"Ready guys?" I asked as Grace and Jerry walked out and dumped the luggage in the trunk. They hoped in and we all sighed as we left the beach house. I was driving while Grace and Jerry talked loudly about the memories here. I laughed along as Jerry talked about the spaghetti tragedy. I pulled over for gas; we were half way home, and looked over at Kim to find her watching me.

"I'm going to get some snacks." Grace announced. She jumped out and Jerry followed, mumbling something about gummy bears.

"What are you doing?" I asked, Kim as she smiled at me. She was in the same position, her head against the seat but her eyes were wide open. I laughed. "Kim, really what are you doing?" I asked. She bit her lip and I chuckled, remembering the hot tub conversation. I licked my lips and jumped out. After pumping the gas and paying I jumped back in and looked at Kim. She was looking at her phone with a worried look on her face. She looked like she was debating with herself. "Kim?" She looked up and sat up straight. "Is everything okay?" I looked at the phone and she shut it off. She slid it into her pajamas shorts, which she didn't change out of.

"It's nothing" She said, obviously lying.

"You know you can tell me anything, Kim" I told her. She sighed.

"Jack, I swear it's nothing." She smiled at me but I could almost immediately tell it was bogus.

"Kim" She looked at me and I sighed knowing I wouldn't get anything out of her. The back seat opened and I saw Grace and Jerry slide through the mirror.

"So guys," Grace said which sounded suspicious. "Any news?" Kim turned in her seat quickly and glared at her best friend. I turned to see the couple smirking, Grace at Kim and Jerry at me. I looked at him confused and he looked to Kim then I. Kim and I turned back at the same time.

"So let's take off" I nodded and drove out of the gas station. I got a lot of thinking done as we drove back. I thought about Kim and I. Our relationships was so weird; we hated each other one minute and the next we were sweet together. I remember in the pool, she was flirting so I flirted back. I remember Jerry and I's conversation about her flirting. I wonder if I'm just another boy toy for her. I wonder if this was all an act so Grace and Jerry could have their relationship without having to split us up. I wondered if really did mean nothing. Deep down I always thought, or wished, she felt the same for me as I did for her. I thought, maybe, that she was lying on that night where we started our little make out sessions, that maybe it did mean something. I've literally been friends with her for two months but one of them was Jerry's accident and we didn't talk.

Kim seemed to be thinking too, I wonder if it's about me. She focused her eyes on the passing of cars and buildings. My eyes flickered from her to the road. I focused on the road and looked at the familiar trees. I pulled into school and groaned. I certainly didn't want my vacation with Kim to end. I wanted to see her every day I woke up and hold her close to me without getting glared and confused looks from everyone.

We jumped out of the car and grabbed all our stuff. It took a while to get to our room, with all the other people coming back, but after unpacking the phone rang. Jerry jumped on him bed and picked it, happily.

"Hey, Babe" He said right when he picked it up. "Oh, hi Kim." He looked at me confused. "okay… See you at dinner then." He hung up the phone. "That was weird"

"What did she say?" I asked, confused.

"She said hi and kind of stuttered then there was Grace in the background and then she was just like, 'See you at dinner' and hung up." I shrugged.

"Those girls are so hiding something" I told him, sitting on my bed and drinking my soda.

"You don't think Grace wants to break up do you?!" He asked, nervous and scared.

"No, no, no!" I assured sitting up. "This is something with Kim." He nodded and looked at the ceiling.

"What is she's dating someone?" I gave him a confused face and he sat up. "I mean when she was dating Carson and Grace told us she seemed like she didn't want us to know." I was surprised that he remembered that and that he noticed that. I nodded and groaned. "I know you don't want that to be the case but it might." I nodded slowly. "I still can't believe you love her!" I chuckled at his enthusiasm.

"She's so different than other girls. She has a factor about her that is just so hard to explain." He smiled.

"My boy's in love" I chuckled. "WE HAVE TO TELL EDDIE AND MILTON!" She stood up and ran out the door. He began banging on the door across the hall.

"They're with their parents." I tried telling him. To my surprise, the door opened. Eddie and Kelsey stood in front him.

"Guys, Jack, has something he needs to tell you! Come on!" HE ushered Eddie and Kelsey in and Milton followed behind, hand in hand with Julie.

"What is it Jack?" Kelsey asked, as everyone got settled.

"Jerry, I thought we were telling the GUYS!" I'm not being sexist, it's just they might tell Kim. I can't have her knowing and be all different around me, though she already is with her secret. WHAT IS SHE KNOWS?! Ugh, I hope not. Wait, but what would she have to say to us.

"HEY" The girls yelled.

"You guys will tell her!" I complained.

"Tell who?" Julie asked.

"It's Kim, isn't it?" Kelsey said with a smirk.

"I-" I was cut off by Jerry.

"HE LOVES HER!" I rolled my eyes.

"No, have Jack say it!" Kelsey complained. She looked suspicious but I let it slide.

"I'm in love with Kim." Kelsey smiled wide and the boys nodded.

"When are you going to ask her out?" Julie asked eager.

"I don't think I will." I sighed. "I don't think she feels the same way, at all…" The boys sighed. The girls looked at each other and burst into laughter. "What?" They held in their breath.

"Oh nothing" Kelsey said.

"What-?" I was cut off.

"Hey! What's up with all this laughing?" Grace walked through the door and jumped on Jerry's bed. "What's going on?"

"Jack was just talking about his love." I rolled my eyes and looked around.

"Oh, lover boy told his friends" She laughed. I kept looking around and noticed something missing, or someone.

"Where's Kim?" I asked.

"Can't keep your mind off of her" Grace laughed. I glared at her and she rolled her eyes. "She's ugh… she's…" She couldn't seem to catch the words. "She's…" Her eyes scattered the room. "At the library!"

"She doesn't read" Julie said, suspicious. Grace scratched her head.

"She's out doing vampire stuff…" She shrugged. I eyed her suspicious as she looked nervous.

"No, she goes after dinner. What are you hiding Grace?" Grace fumbled with her fingers.

"She's at dinner" She admitted.

"Then let's go" I said, going to stand up. Grace put her arm out.

"So eager to see her, huh?" I rolled my eyes and went to leave. "WAIT" I turned to looked at Grace who stood up. "You can't!" I gave her a confused look and eyes filled with sadness.

"I'm going" I announce walking out.

()()()()()()()()()

I sat next to Eddie, shocked. What is going on? What is Grace hiding? Grace grabbed her pockets and pulled out her phone. Punching in the numbers she groaned.

"Pick up, pick up, pick up!" She groaned. "KIM!" She yelled. "He's coming… so… I don't think he will be happy with you and him… You said the same thing with Jack... Kim, make up your mind!" She looked around at all of us. "Can I tell them…? I can't handle this secret on my own!" She nodded and hung up. "Okay, you can't tell anyone about this" We nodded and she sat down, watching the door.

"Is Kim with someone?" Jerry asked.

"There was this guy that came up to me and her, he was new. She decided to show him around and now they are going to have dinner together, here." My eyes widened.

"How does Jack come into this?" Julie asked.

"If he sees them he will be heart broken." We nodded and sighed. "There is more" I looked up, scared. If Kim dates this guy, that could cut a hole in our group. Either Kim would stop talking to us or Jack. I wouldn't want either of them to leave. Kim was my sister, vampire sister, and Jack he's my boyfriend's role model!

Grace looked around suspiciously. "Kim likes him."

"Likes the new guy?" I tried to clarify. She shook her head.

"Likes Jack, I shouldn't even say likes, loves." Jerry smiled and squealed. "When he told Jerry and me he liked her… she heard." The room was filled with gasps.

"Why didn't she say anything?" I asked.

"She's scared. I push her and she stutters and mess up. That what happened on the phone." She told Jerry. He nodded.

"Now he's totally going to think she's not interested!" I groaned and feel back. I quickly stood up. "We have to get down there" Everyone agreed and I sped off first, with my super speed.

I ran into the café and gasped for air. I had pasted Jack in the hall so I had a little bit till he came. I spotted Kim with a brunette in a baby blue hoodie. He was okay looking but come one Kim. THIS IS JACK! Him compared to Jack is like a kitten and a lion! I ran to her and grabbed her, spinning her to face me.

"Oh, hi Kelsey." She said, surprised and happy. "This is Brett" I glared at the boy and gave him a fake smile.

"What about Jack?" I asked.

"We're just friends" I rolled my eyes.

"You know he likes you and you like him!" She chuckled.

"No, Brett and I am just friend." I looked around and saw Jack coming this way.

"Actually, Kim I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date?" Brett cut in. I sighed and looked at the shocked and sad Jack. He turned and walked out. Kim turned to Brett and sighed.

"I'm sorry." She said.

"You have a guy." He said.

"I have a Jack" I nodded and he walked off.

"Perfect timing!" I groaned as he walked away. Kim looked at me confused.

"What is your deal?!" She asked, annoyed.

"Jack! He heard Brett ask you out!" She looked around. I pointed at the door as the group rushed in. We all decided to eat and that Jack would come back. He never came. Kim told us she would talk to him and left.
