Kick returned to the party to find Gunther wowing the crowd with his impersonations. He made his way to the beverage table to grab a cheetah chug. He popped a can and downed it quenching his thirst. "Hmmmm nothing beats a Cheetah Chug" Kicked whispered. "I think I'm gonna call it a night" Kicked said as he walked up to his mum. "So soon" she asked as she checked her watch only to realize that it was infact rather late. "Well I guess we'd rather join you, Herald, Honey I think it's time we left" she called out after Herald. They said their goodbyes and left.
"So Kick, honey, any beautiful young lady caught your attention yet?" Honey asked Kick. Kicked smiled and replied "With the way career is going, I haven't even noticed". "But honey, if you don't find that someone special now, God knows what's going to happen. What I mean is Kick, that you are not getting any younger you know. And I know that deep down in your heart you know it too" she said sympathetically. "I know mum, but I want someone to love me for me and not the fame and money! It's not easy to find someone like that" said Kick as he picked up his pace and made his way home. Herald and Honey watched him as he walked away. "Oh my poor boy" she cooed, she heard sniffling behind her. She turned around "Herald say something!" she spoke "I'm not crying I just have something in my eye" he said. "He is a big boy, he can handle himself. Who knows, he may find love like ours right here in Mellowbrook" he said. "Well we will just have to wait and see" she said as they held each other and watched him disappear around the corner.
The next day Kick got up and had breakfast with his parents. They enjoyed the conversation about Brianna's latest pageant win and her engagement and Brad's promotion and they also received news that he and his wife Cindy were expecting their second child. Kick spoke about his latest stunts and possibly and another blockbuster movie in the near future. When they completed their meals, Kicked excused himself and left. He decided to ride his Superbike up to the mall. He called Gunther and asked him to meet him there. He put on his glasses and took off and within mere minutes he reached the mall. He tried to blend into the crowd not wanting the attention. He made his way to the theater bought two tickets. He found his seats at the far left but unfortunately he couldn't back row seats, he had to settle for the second last row. He was abit annoyed that he had someone seated behind him. He put on his cap and laid low and waited for Gunther to arrive. There were a handful of people entering the theater. He paid no attention to the chattering pair of women that made their way to the back row, to his annoyance. He would have asked them to swap but then he would have blown his cover, he couldn't risk it. He waited for Gunther anxiously but he was nowhere to be seen as the movie was about to start his phone buzzed, a text message from Gunther
G: Hey Kick .. Sorry but Alice just stuck a coin up her nose and I'm on my way to the ER.
K: That doesn't too sound good, Ok I'll be there ASAP.
G: Thanks Kick.
Kick knows that Alice is all that matters right now so he had to be there for his friends. He tried to leave without causing a commotion. He made his way past the entire row by crouching and apologizing. He finally made his way to the door only to have it slammed into his face. Kicked was now on his butt and holding his forehead. He didn't notice a certain young blonde apologizing. He got up and looked around to see if anyone noticed him, to his surprise, everyone was focused on the movie. "Sorry mister, I'm really sorry, I didn't see you" came the young womens response. Kick turned around and said "don't worry about it" as he put his shades back on and tried to make his exit only to be blocked by the young blonde. "Hey I know you, you're Clarence Buttowski, I live a few blocks down from your house" she said. "Yeah, Yeah I am, wait a sec, how do you know my real name? Everyone calls me Kick!" said Kick who was now curious. He looked at the girl carefully, she didn't seem older than 18, that's for sure, she's blonde, ponytail, pointy nose and tall. "OMG where's my manners, I'm Alexis Perkins" she said. "No that's…..this can't be right" Kick thought to himself. Kick's jaw was now on the floor. "I'm sorry but did you say Perkins?" Kick asked. "Yes, Yes I did" she replied. "Wow" That was all Kick could say. "Look I'm really sorry can I do anything to make it up to you?" she asked. "Hmmmm lets see, buy me a Cheetah Chug and you have yourself a deal" said Kick. He wanted to know more about Alexis Perkins and could she be? "Sure but I'm meeting my aunt for lunch aswel so would you mind if she joined us?" she asked. "Sure that's not a problem as long as you guys not mention my name out loud, I'm trying to keep a low profile here" Kick smiled and replied. "That's awesome and don't worry my secrets safe with me" she replied.
