(A/N this is my first Kick Buttowski Fanfiction, I don't own anything that pertains to the Show Kick Buttowski)
~Cole~
Today was Monday
I finally knew everyone in my class by name
Okay for in my plan to get Kick and Kendall, I've made my presence known to him by displaying my skills to Kick in Dodge ball
Now for the next parts of Phase 1
Give Billy stumps the green light to tell kick what he and my Dad talked about but still keep my name and relation with my father on the down low, because I wanted to reveal myself to him on my own terms
Next as I stated recently Take Kick to the sight of my Dads grave reveal myself to him, he begs to make him his apprentice, I refuse him and I explain why
Finally to finish the day off, while I leave the cemetery with Kick pop by the maternity ward for him see the Babies there and once we're wrapped up at the hospital I finish my explanation with a decision
Between Kendall who loves him on the inside as well as the outside
And Jackie A girl, who obsessively pursues Kick, who essentially just loves him on the outside
then it's up to Phase two the illusion break
On with my day
I got up at ten minutes before 6 am
As I usually did no matter where in the world I was
And as usual I was ready to rock and roll in minutes
Since classes started at 8 I figured I'd Call Billy to give him the Green light
I pull out my cell phone and step outside I hit Billy's number on speed dial
(A/N: to save time I'm going to just do Cole's lines)
"Hey Billy"
"Yeah to long"
"Listen I'm just going to get right into it"
"I need you to tell Kick that my Dad has a son, but I need you to keep my name a secret"
"Thanks Billy and No I'm not doing stunts not until I've accomplished what I've set out to do"
I hang up
After grabbing my bag with roller blade sneaker Attachments
"Bye Mom, I'm off to school" I say to her
"Okay Cole, have a good day" I hear her say (A/N: for Cole's Mom Picture Patrica Belcher From Law and Order and Bones)
"I will" I fire back
I bolt for the door after a dramatic jump from my front door
The Attachment latch onto my feet I touch down on the end of my Front walkway
After an hour of blasting through the streets
I arrive at Mellowbrook Middle School an hour ahead of everyone
The time I spent between the moments I Arrived and the first Bell was the next stage
Once I made myself known to Kick and bring him within Eyesight of the cross roads of destiny
I'm going to make sure that the knowledge of which move is the right one is apparent
(A/N skipping ahead to Drama class)
"Alright class" Said Mr. Huang after his dramatic entrance through a pair of doors on stage
"As per the vote yesterday"
"We are doing Romeo and Juliet"
Kendall who was sitting next to me did a victory pose via thrusting a fist forward then retract said fist to her side
"Now to decide on the staff and parts"
I shot my hand up
"I volunteer to be the director" I said
"Alright Cole" he said
After that moment I was in command of the play
I had Kick as Romeo Understudy
Renaldo as Romeo
Kendall as Juliet, I gave her a "We'll talk about it at lunch" Look, she got the message pretty clear
Gunther as Friar Lawrence, even though I myself wanted that part
Mouth as I am addressing him by nickname as Apothecary
Jackie as Lady Montague
After a great many calculations I figured I'd have everybody ready after 8 rehearsals followed by a dress rehearsal so 9 days
*Later at Lunch*
"Cole" Kendall said to me at one of the lunch tables
"I've already tried getting him to kiss me by way of the Romeo and Juliet Play" she said like she had already given up
"Do I need to remind you of my motto?" I say to her
She snaps up glancing off to the right
"No" she said
"Look this play is all part of the grand master plan" I say to her
"I heard lunch line chatter that it was you who was behind the failure of last year's Romeo and Juliet play"
"Now is this true" I said eyeing her suspiciously
She just nods yes looking down slightly in shame
"You purposely sabotaged the set so that you'd get to kiss Kick, a boy you once stated to despise" I said to her
A moment of silence later during which Kendall looks at me with an uncertain face
"Naughty little girl" I said (A/N: picture Mr. Tinkles Cats and Dogs the Revenge of Kitty Galore the Alcatraz Scene)
She giggles at the tone of which I said my words in
"Look you let me worry about Kick, and as for you" I look to see if anyone is listening, with no one listening I say to Kendall "You just worry about setting the sandbag to drop on Renaldo on Opening night"
"And I will promise you that Kick will kiss you, but the downside is that you won't be together yet, So Do we have a deal" I finished with an extended hand
"Deal" she said shaking my hand
As I release her hand, I polish off my Lunch, and then I headed over to Kick's table
*Kick's Table in the lunch*
~Cole~
"I thought I had this Romeo and Juliet business behind me last year, but it seems I'm back where I started, I guess I'm going to have to do what I did last year" I hear Kick say to Gunther
"Well I wouldn't say or do that" I say
The Two turn to me
"Just because Last year's play was a bust doesn't mean it's going to be a bust now" I said taking a seat next to Gunther
"What makes you so certain" I hear Gunther say to me
"Last year no one volunteered to be director, so Mr. Huang filled that slot he didn't have back up plan to save the show nor accept the possiblilty of failure"
"I heard from some sources of who I greased monetarily" I said rubbing my middle finger and thumb
"That you were protecting Renaldo from Harm so that you wouldn't have to be Romeo" I said while pointing at Kick
"Yeah I was somewhat successful" He said
"Yeah how'd that Workout for you" I said to him with arms crossed
~Kick~
As I here Cole's words I glance off to my right
*Flashback*
~Kick~
It was opening night last year for the Romeo and Juliet set
I was successful in protecting Renaldo from harm
As I watched the fruits of my effort get closer to kissing Kendall
My efforts go up in flames when a sandbag hanging by a pulley from the Rafters comes loose
The plummeting Sandbag gives Renaldo a good clonk on the head knocking him out cold
I was confused that sand bag was the same one I prevented from hitting Renaldo Earlier in the day how did it come loose was the question I was asking myself
"… Bring in the Understudy" I hear a somewhat audible voice
The Voice I heard Mr. Huang
"The Understudy" I said slightly confused
Then the students in the Costume department, quick as a blink of an eye
Had me in the Romeo Costume
Then I remembered my role
Romeo's Understudy as in Replacement in the event of Injury Romeo
"The Understudy" I said now fully awake
I was pushed on stage I walked the rest of the way to the foot of the ladder
"Romeo, Romeo where for art thou Romeo" I hear Kendall say
*End of Flashback *
~Cole~
Kick looking like he came out of his flashback
He just gives me a look that pretty much speaks for itself
"Not Well I'd Imagine, but then again you weren't properly introduced to Reverse Psychology" I Say to him
"Reverse Psychology, What's that" Kick asked me in a hearing a term for the first time tone
"Reverse Psychology is a technique involving the advocacy of a belief or behavior that is opposite to the one desired, with the expectation that this approach will encourage the subject of the persuasion to do what actually is desired," I say
"In an English I'll Understand" He said not understanding a single word I said
"In the common tongue it's essentially using the opposite belief to achieve certain means and or ends," I say to him
"Will that work for ya?"
"That'll work" He said back to me
"Okay now that's aside" I say
"Now to get down to business, Last year Renaldo earned the part of Romeo in Romeo and Juliet, Yes"
He nods
"Kendall and Renaldo had dated in the past, Right"
"Right" Kick said still wondering where I'm going with this
"Think about it Kick, why did Renaldo go out of his way to get the part of Romeo" I say
"Now that I think about it, I would say for the Kiss scenes"
It was right then and their He realized where I was going with this
"You mean to say Renaldo needs to be Romeo in hopes of putting spark into their failed Relationship" He said
I nod in response with a smile
"So now here's something to remedy the situation so it is not a repeat of last year"
He looks at me attentively
"You Employ Reverse Psychology on Renaldo"
"How do I do that" he asked not sure of what sort of action to take
"You already possess a method of how" I say
"And what method might that be?" He asked not sure of what I'm Talking about
"Renaldo wants what you already have experienced, to lock lips with Kendall"
He and Gunther looks at me with utter alarm "How do you know about that" they both say in twin style sync
"Pantsy, the Mellowbrook Multiplex assistant manager, once I greased him monetarily he sang like a canary"
"And Gunther It's a metaphor" I Said noticing a rising Hand
He quiets down
~Kick~
Figures Pantsy would be his source
I sit there, taking in what he said
There is no way I was going to be babysitting Renaldo again
Nor was I going to be his punching bag for the Dipazzi Twins or to the toddlers at the playground
I'm willing to try anything
"All right Cole I'm in" he said with a steely eyed smirk
"What's the Plan" I ask
~Cole~
As I Hear his question I rummage through my bag
I pull out an ear piece and a mini microphone
I hand the ear piece to Kick
"Put this in your Ear" I instructed him
"Theirs Renaldo" I said pointing to Renaldo walking into the Boys Rooms
"Look you leave the words you say to him to me, once I activate the Microphone in my hand, you are to phrase everything I say in your words, Is that clear"
"Yes" He said with a nod
*The Bathroom*
(A/N: Cole's Lines are in Italics)
~Kick~
As I enter the bathroom Renaldo's finishing his business at one of the Urinals
I enter a stall I pop the ear piece in my ear and after removing my Helmet I put it back on, I exit the stall
Over by the sink I see Renaldo wiping his hands
"Renaldo" I say to him with a showdown style glare
"Buttowski" he says to me same way
"It seems after all that's happened last year I'm back where I started" I say to him
"So it seems, I am going to enjoy this" He said in a mischievous tone the same way he said last year
Normally I wouldn't say anything but
"Normally that would be the case, but not this time" I hear Cole say in the ear piece
"Not This time Renaldo"
Renaldo looks at me in an alarmed way
"Yes Renaldo, I happen to know for a fact that you and Kendall never kissed in all the time you've dated" I Hear Cole say in my ear piece
"I ever so happened to have figured out Why you of all people wanted to be Romeo, before a week ago I was stumped, but now it all make sense, it was so that you could kiss Kendall in hopes of salvaging your relationship with her after blowing it with her; trying to keep me from delivering food to your place on time or don't you recall" (A/N: Episode Reference, Stand And Delivery)
Renaldo still looking at me like he was about to wet himself after a quick glance to the Right
"Now becomes the question of who" I hear Cole say
"Now it is a simple matter of whom will fate allow to lock lips with Kendall?"
"Okay Kick, Wrap it up with, One Role exclusion injury, and I'll have Kendall's Lips all to myself" Cole says to me Via Ear piece
"Be warned Renaldo, If you get hurt between now and Opening night, Kendall's Sweet Succulent Lips are all mine" I said with an evil laugh exiting the Bathroom
"Kick that was awesome" Cole say to him
"and the evil laugh was a nice touch"
"You can keep the ear piece; because I'll be reading you your lines in the same manner as before, should the worst happen" he says to me
I still couldn't believe it I verbally made Renaldo Speechless
~Cole~
The rest of the day came and went just like that
I figured I'd have a bit of fun
Said Fun was racing the Bus back to my house by way of the same way I used to get to School
*later In Cole's Bedroom*
~Cole~
My room wasn't much to talk about
It primarily consisted of a Desk w/a high end Computer and equipment
A stereo with an IPod (A/N: Real music player, belongs to Apple, I make no claims to) dock
A bed, whose size is exactly between a Queen and a single mattress, with regular Blue sheets
With a grass green rug
As I lay on top of my made bed
I hear what sounds like a monster truck
I hurry to my Window
What I saw matched what I heard
There was Billy Stumps in his Monster Truck cruising up to Kicks House
I hurry over there
~Billy Stumps~
I finally found Kick's address from the outside and surrounding areas
Seems like an okay neighborhood
I hop down from my truck then I make my way to the front door
After a deep breath since I was about to end the promise I was keeping to Cole's Dad
I Ring on the Doorbell
A Man answers the door Brown hair nose taking up a piece of his face
"You must be Billy Stumps" he says
"My son speaks highly of you"
"You must be Kick's Old man," I said then realizing what I said
"No Offense" I said
"None taken" he fires back
"Is Kick in"
"Sure come on in"
"Kick," He calls out
"Someone is here to see you"
I place myself on the couch
I hear footsteps
"Billy Stumps here in my house" he said like he just met me for the first time
"Hey Kick You got some place where we can talk in private?"
