* I DO NOT OWN KICKIN IT*
Sorry I haven't updated in a while I've been super busy but here is an extra long chapter for you guys! I hope you like it...please let me know what you guys think!
I woke up to the sound of the girls laughing and the sweet smell of coffee and waffles. I sat up looking around the room at graces house stretching my arms getting off the sofa. When I made my way into the kitchen I see all the girls either drinking coffee or eating waffles.
"Hey looks who's finally awake" Kelsey smiled as the other girls looked over at me. Julie handed me a cup of coffee with some waffles and berries while I sat down to join them.
"Morning, where are the boys?"
"They went to get their suits" grace said smiling and taking a sip of her drink.
"Suits?"
"We are all going to the beach today for a couple hours and then we are going to go to dinner. So hurry up and eat so we can go get your suit" grace said leaving the room to go change. After we went to the girls house and they got their stuff we went to my house to grab my stuff. I picked my black swimsuit and put on some jean shorts and an 'LA' croptop. I slipped my flip flops on, grabbed a towel and sunscreen and ran to the car. By the time we got there the boys had already found a spot and were waiting for us.
"There you guys are" Eddie said grabbing Kelseys bags from her and setting them down next to his. Everyone found a spot and started putting on sunscreen. Before we could even blink all the boys were in the ocean. I spread my towel out on the sand and started putting sunscreen on. Along with the other girls, I took my shorts and shirt off revealing my swimsuit.
"Grace can you get my back?" I asked as she took the sunscreen and sprayed it on my back as I did the same with her. I looked in the water to see Jack on Jerry's shoulders splashing the water around them. Jack took a quick glance at me and smirked at me. Smiling, I got my phone out looking at the time, 2:30, and put in one earbud turning on my favorite band at the moment, 'Parachute.' After about 20 minutes the boys came back asking us when we were going to get in the water. The girls said in a few minutes and they made their way back to the water.
"So Kim, has Jack asked you to be his girlfriend yet?" Julie asked sitting up.
"Not yet. We haven't even kissed. I mean we have kissed each others cheeks and acted like a couple but no nothing yet." I said flipping over to face them.
"I never should have inturrupted you guys that night at the park. I'm so stupid you guys would probably be dating right now if I hadnt ruined it." grace said shaking her head
"No grace it's not your fault we just haven't. It's not the end of the world" I said putting my hand on her shoulder. All the girls got up and we're making their way to the water when Kelsey turned around and spoke.
"Kim aren't you coming?" she asked as the other girls stopped to turn and look at me.
"Well I was gonna tan a little more" I said looking down and then back at them
"Kim you're already super tan, come on Jacks gonna be lonely in the water" grace said smirking while giving me a small wink as the other girls 'pleased' at me.
"Alright fine. But I really don't want to get my hair wet" I said pulling my hair into a messy bun and taking my headphones out putting the music on pause and throwing my phone in my bag. We made our way to the water with the boys waving us over to we're they were. They were pretty far out in the water, because the water came above my belly button but not enough to cover my top. I stood there looking at everyone having fun and watched them go even farther into the water. Jack stood next to me looking from me to the group and finally spoke.
"Wanna go join them?" he asked moving toward the group
"No thats ok I will stay right here" I looked down at the water and then at Jack
"Oh come on don't be such a downer" he said splashing water at me which got half of my hair soaked. I could hear him laughing but all I did was stand there. The group came over and the girls looked at me
"Um Jack, Kim was trying to keep her hair dry" Kelsey said looking at him with a serious face. His face dropped and he stood there.
"Oh, Kim I'm so sorry I didn't know. I figured since you came in the water you didn't really care" all I could do was laugh a little and look over at Grace who was laughing over his babbling as the guys looked at Jack to see what he would do. Jack took a few steps toward me so he was a foot in front of me with his hands out and his mouth open not knowing what to do or say. I took me hair out of the messy bun letting the half dry half wet hair fall down, the tips hitting the water. Everyone had spread out by now knowing I would probably either leave because I was so mad or kill him. I took a step back shaking my hair out a little and then looked at Jack. I splashed him in the face quickly then jumped toward him laughing. He turned when I splashed him letting me jump on his back and wrapping my legs around him. After a while I got tired and decided to go lay back on my towel to get some sun. Everyone else stayed in the water a little longer. After about 5 minutes of laying out Jack came to join me.
"Hey I'm pretty thirsty want to go get a drink?" he asked after checking his phone
"Sure" I said throwing my shorts on and sliding my phone in my back pocket and following him to the small store on the corner.
"2 waters please" jack asked handing the girl at the counter his money. I could tell by the drool running out of her open mouth that she thought jack was hot. Who could blame her. He did have abs and a great tan with perfect hair and was the sweetest guy. It did make me a little jealous even though he didn't even look at her while we were there but still. While we were making our way back to the beach a girl 'accidentally' bumped into me causing me to trip and fall back. Jack caught me before I could hit anything. As I regained my balance I was starring at none other than Dona's right hand girl, Jessie.
"Opps I didn't see you there. It's like you were totally invisible" she said laughing with Brad, the star quarterback at our school. With that they both walked away leaving both of us glad they were gone. As soon as I took a step with my right foot it gave out and I was caught again by Jack.
"Woah hey are you ok?" he asked holding me up while I stood there looking at my foot.
"Yeah I think so. I probably just landed on it wrong and twisted it." I said looking at my now swollen foot. Great I thought. Guess no fancy dinner for me tonight. Jack supported most of my weight as we slowly made our way back to our spot on the beach to meet with the group. When we made it back Grace was the first to notice.
"Oh my gosh Kim what happened?" she asked as the rest of the group turned with concerned expressions.
"Jessie happened. She purposely ran into Kim" Jack said grabbing my bag and towel for me. Just as he said that the whole group turned and looked at Jessie and Brad who were a couple of spots down and gave them glares. Grace was about to go over there and do who knows what but before she could Jerry picked her up and swung her over his shoulder and made his way toward the car. While everyone was grabbing the rest of their stuff, Jack quickly grabbed his stuff and mine and threw me my shirt and backpack which I put on and upon demand got on Jacks back so he could carry me to the car.
"So Kim I don't suppose you can go to dinner with us" Julie asked throwing her bag in the trunk of Graces car.
"No I should probably go home and ice it just to help the swelling go down. Maybe another time" I said getting down to hug the girls. After the group left I got in the car with Jack so he could take me home since we live across from each other. As we pulled in Jacks driveway my face was full of question.
"Stay here I'll be right back" He said leaving the car running in the house. After about 2 minutes he came out in shorts and a grey shirt. He took out the keys and opened the passenger door helping me out. Walking up the steps to my house I unlocked the door and was helped inside. He sat me down on the couch and let Sophie out to use the bathroom. I'm assuming mom had to pick up another day shift so she won't be home till around midnight. While Jack was outside watching Sophie I decided to go get out of my swimsuit and into something more comfortable. I picked out my grey longsleeve shirt and a pair of black Nike shorts along with a sports bra and quickly changed. Coming out of the bathroom I almost run straight into Jack.
"Kim you're suppose to be resting your foot." he said helping me over to the bed. "Here you rest I will go get some ice" he said before resting my foot on one of my pillows. Sophie came in and layed next to the bed as he left the room.
"Jack you know you don't have to stay, I can take care of myself" I said to him as he returned with the ice pack and hand towel.
"I know but I just want to make sure you're ok. And plus I don't want you to be bored" he said sitting next to me. I just smiled and turned on the tv to see what was on. After a few hours we decided it was probably a good time to eat. After we ordered Panda Express online Jack went to go get it. Before he got back I decided to get a drink of water. Sure my foot was still sore but I was able to walk on it almost completely without limping a little. I put the glass of water down on the counter and instead of going over to the chair decided to sit on the counter. As I sat on the counter letting my feet just barely touch the floors, Jack walked in with the food.
"Kim what are you doing out of bed?" he asked putting the food on the counter and turning toward me.
"Jack I'm fine really I'm a little sore but the ice pack really helped. Really I'm fine" I said putting my hand over the top of his looking at him. He smiled down at our hands and looked at me.
"Ok good I'm just making sure" he smiled before letting go of our hands and getting the food. After we were done we talked for a while and before we knew it, it was 9:00.
"Are you sure you don't want to go home? It's getting kind of late" I said watching as he leaned against the counter on the opposite side of the kitchen.
"Do you want me to go?" he asked raising his eyebrows at me. I smiled big and look down at my hands messing with them in my lap.
"No" I whispered into my lap smiling.
"Good" he said before pushing himself off the counter and making his way toward me to grab the empty food carton. Placing it in the trash he stood next to me leaning against the counter.
"So what do you wanna do since you obviously are boring me to death" I smirked at him and looked down trying to fight the urge to not laugh.
"Oh really?" he asked smiling before standing in front of me. Before I knew it he was tickling the life out of me. After what seamed like forever I finally got enough breath to speak.
"Jack...I...can't...breathe.." I said laughing in between words trying to catch my breath. He finally stopped and rested his hands lightly on my hips. In this moment it was just me and him. And we were close. Really close. Like I could feel his breath on me. All I could do was stare into his eyes and he did the same. He slowly started to lean in and I did the same. I could feel the small gap between our lips that were now centimeters apart from each other. He stopped for a split second, which made me think he was having second thoughts about us or this kiss that hasn't happened yet, but then it happened. Our lips touched and sparks went flying throughout my entire body. The warm touch of his lips and the softness of them made me melt more into the kiss. Butterflies fluttered in my stomach and it made me smile into the kiss. Moving his hands from my hips around to the small of my back, I could feel his cold fingertips brush against my warm skin under my shirt making me shiver a little. I place my hands on each side of him pulling him closer to me if that we're even possible. After what seemed like forever we pulled away both of us smiling uncontrolably. Just then Sophie ran toward the front door and started barking. I looked over at the front door and moved slightly to try to get down causing Jacks hands to fall from my hips down to his sides. Before I could get down I hear the door unlocking and my mom coming through the door.
"Hey you're home early" I smiled watching as she put her her purse down and walking into the kitchen.
"Yeah wasn't that busy so they sent me home. What did you guys have for dinner?" she asked looking through the fridge.
"Jack went and got Panda" I smiled leaning my head on Jacks chest intertwining our hands.
"You had Panda without me" she asked her face full of hurt.
"I got you your usual Ms. Crawford" Jack smiled pulling out a box from the bag next to us and handed it to her with a fork.
"Oh Jack you're the best. Thank you" she said taking the food sitting on the bar stool across the kitchen. "Kim what happened to your foot? It's all bruised" she asked noticing my foot.
"Nothing mom I'm fine I just triped that's all." I muttered into Jacks chest. I lifted my head to face Jacks. 'Thank you' I mouthed and smiled placing my hand on his chest. He smiled and took his phone out of his pocket. It read 10:00. He put his phone back in his pocket and turned away to grab his stuff at the opposite side of the kitchen.
"It's getting late I should probably go. Let you get your rest" he smiled looking at me.
"Goodnight Jack. And thank you again for dinner" she said getting up to quickly hug him and then continued to eat. He came over to where I was still sitting on the counter and faced me smiling.
"You want me to drive you to school tomorrow?" he asked placing his hands on my hips and watched me closely to see what I would say.
"Sure. I'd love that" I whispered biting my lip
"Ok I will text you in the morning" he smiled leaning in. He gave me a quick but passionate kiss on the lips before pulling back and walking toward the door. After he left I looked at my mom who had a smirk on her face.
"So you guys dating?" she asked putting another piece of food in her mouth.
"No not yet." I frowned looking down and slowly hopping down off the counter. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight love you see you in the morning" I said giving her a kiss on the cheek and going to my room.
