I'd like to thank all of the people who reviewed, followed, and liked my story. Thank you, it means a lot to me. So now here's another chapter :)
The next day, Milton, Eddie, Jerry, Rudy, Jack, and I were at the dojo. We were all sitting in the a circle and Rudy was talking about being responsible and be good or blah blah. I'm not really listening. This is like a boring meeting and we have these pretty often.
"Do you guys understand"? Rudy asked.
"Yes" we all mumbled even though I was barely even listening to Rudy.
"Okay, Jerry summarize what I just said." Rudy ordered.
"Um….you said something about unicorns." Jerry answered.
Rudy slapped himself in the face.
I bit my lip so I wouldn't burst out laughing.
"Okay would somebody else summarize what I just said." Rudy said frustrated.
Milton raised his hand.
"Besides you Milton. It seems like you're the only smart one in this dojo."
"And handsome." Milton replied.
"Don't push it." Rudy answered.
"Eddie summarize what I said before."
Eddie farted.
"Are you kidding me"? Rudy snapped.
"Sorry I ate a burrito." Eddie apologized.
"Oh my gosh." Jack mumbled trying to move the smell away with his hand.
"Kim summarize what I said before." Rudy ordered.
Damn
"Um.. you said to always be responsible and aware incase anything happens." I replied unsurely.
"Close enough." Rudy answered. "Okay now let's practice!"
I'm finally glad that's over. About a half hour later, Rudy put everybody into groups of sparring and Rudy was helping Eddie. I was sparring with Milton.
"So Kim, do you like Jack'? Milton asked as he tried to aim a punch at my face but I blocked it.
"Why do you keep asking me that"? I said annoyed and tried to kick him.
"It's a simple question." Milton answered.
I flipped Milton over. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't there's a lot of possibilities." I answered and walked away from him.
"She so likes him." I heard him mumble.
After practice was finally over, I was about to start my next plan.
I walked up to Jack, where he was standing in a perfect spot.
"Hi Jack."
"Hey Kim."
Then he started talking to me about some random stuff until I finally said:
"Hey look! "There's a mistletoe." I pointed at the ceiling.
Jack looked up at the ceiling. "That's weird. I don't remember seeing that up there." "Maybe it's just some strange plant growing up there.".
"But there's duct tape at the end of it ."I said.
"But why the heck would there be a mistletoe? It's March." Jack answered.
I shrugged. "Beats me."
"Are we suppose to kiss or something?" Jack asked.
"Yeah, I guess." I answered and smiled.
We both leaned in. Then the guys busted out of Rudy's office.
"AHA!" They all shouted.
"We caught you guys red handed!" Rudy said.
"What are you talking about, their hands aren't red'. I'm confused." Jerry said.
Eddie rolled his eyes. "It's an expression Jerry."
"Ohhhhhhhhh. "Wait what's an expression?"
Rudy sighed and turned away from Jerry. "Anyway, why didn't you guys tell us you were dating? It was pretty obvious you were."
"What? Kim and I aren't dating." Jack answered.
"Then why were you two about to kiss?" Milton asked.
"Whoa, let me handle this Milton." Rudy said putting a hand in front of Milton. "Then why were you two about to kiss?" Rudy repeated from Milton.
"There's a mistletoe." I pointed to the ceiling.
The guys all looked up at the ceiling. "When did that get up there"? Eddie asked.
"I look up at the ceiling everyday and I never seen a mistletoe. How did it even get up there?" Rudy asked.
"I don't know." I shrugged. I hoped it wasn't easy to tell I was lying.
"Hmm.." Eddie mumbled.
Jack sighed.
It was silent. Rudy looked at Jerry who was picking his nose. Then he flicked the booger on Milton.
"Gahhhhhhh!" Milton screamed.
Then Rudy looked at me for a moment which made me feel a little uncomfortable. Then he looked at Jack.
"What?" Jack asked.
"Then what about that other time I saw you guys leaning in to kiss"? he asked.
"I told you, we fell." Jack answered.
"I saw you guys almost kiss at the park." Milton said.
"We fell." I answered.
"Is it just me or are you guys falling a lot?" Rudy asked.
"We only fell twice." Jack said.
"Hmm." Milton mumbled.
"We'll be watching you guys." Rudy said.
I sighed. Will Jack and I ever kiss without being interrupted? This is so frustrating. But I just have to keep trying no matter what it takes…..
