Chapter 6: Big Date or Big Trouble

KIM'S POV

The rest of practice went pretty quickly. I actually had a lot of fun with Julie and most of the other girls, but was glad to get away from Claire and Donna. I grabbed my jacket and started to walk off of the field with Julie. Liam came running over to the sideline where we were to grab a drink of water.

"Hey." He said with a big smile on his face. "You did great out there."

"Thank you." I replied. "You are doing pretty good yourself."

"Thanks. I better get back, but I will see you in a little while." He said as he ran back out to the field.

"You are so lucky." Julie said.

"And why is that?" I asked.

"You have every guy at school paying attention to you. I can't even get one guy to do that." She said sadly.

I grabbed her upper arms lightly and made her face me. "Jules, you are crazy. The guys pay attention to you. You just don't notice it because you only want Milton's attention. And trust me, he looks at you all the time. You just need to let yourself have more fun." I told my friend.

"You are just saying that." She said.

"No I am not. It is true. Why don't you come home with me and we will have some fun before work doing makeovers?" I asked excitedly.

"Really?" She said.

"Yes. Besides the uniforms are different for tonight so we need to figure out our hair and I would love your input." I replied.

"Okay. That will be fun." She said.

I locked my arm with hers and we walked off of the field together. As we came around to the front of the school, Jack was there leaning against his bike. I looked at him questioningly.

"Hi, Jack." I said.

"Would you like a ride back home?" He asked with a smirk.

I saw Julie's eyebrows rise and said, "No, we can walk. Thank you for the offer."

"I can have one of my guys give your friend a ride if that is what you are worried about." He said.

I started to say something, but Julie beat me to it. "That would be great, Jack. Thank you. We are kind of tired after practice."

I looked at her in shock and she whispered to me. "You told me that I needed to let myself have more fun, so let's have fun."

Jack motioned to his guys who were heading our direction. Jerry and Sam jumped on their bikes and Sam motioned for Julie to come over and climb on the back of his bike. She looked a little nervous, but she jumped on. I started to slip my jacket back on and Jack said. "Don't wear your hoodie on my account." He smiled at me and I just shook my head.

"I just didn't want to try to hold it while riding." I said as I put it on my arms and got on the bike behind Jack and held onto him. "You better drop me where you picked me up. My dad is alright with us getting to know each other, but riding on your bike is probably not something he is ready for yet."

"Got it." He said as he took off and I wrapped my arms around his waist.

Within a few minutes, he pulled over to let me off. I held onto his shoulders as I climbed off of the bike and he grabbed one of my hands and stared into my eyes. I was frozen standing there lost in his chocolaty eyes. He looked me up and down once and winked at me with his smirk on his face.

"Thanks for the ride, Jack. We will see you later at Phil's." I said with a smile.

"Yep. I will see you there." He said.

Julie climbed off of Sam's bike. "Thank you for the ride." She said to Sam.

"No problem." He replied.

Jack let go of my hand and Julie and I linked arms again and finished walking to my house. "Kim, Jack totally likes you. What are you going to do?" Julie said.

"We are just getting to know each other. I am not looking for a boyfriend right now. I just want to be young and have fun with all of my new friends. I just want to get to stay here longer than a few months." I told her.

"We are going to have a wonderful year. I am not letting you go anywhere." She told me as we sped up toward my house.

As we walked up to my door, I noticed that my dad was home still. We walked in and were greeted by ten military officers, none of which were my dad. "Dad! I am home and I have a friend with me." I called out.

He came out from the kitchen. "Hi, Kim. We are still having our meeting, but there is lunch in on the stove if you girls are hungry. I am Danny." He said holding his hand out toward Julie. "Welcome to our home."

Julie shook his hand. "Dad, this is Julie from the diner. We are going to go work on beautification." I said with a smile.

"Oh, okay. You girls have fun with your makeovers." He said teasingly.

"You have a lovely home." Julie said with a smile as I pulled her up the stairs.

"I will bring up some of the food to you girls in a little bit and see how the beautification is coming along." He yelled up the stairs at us.

I looked back at him and smiled. I closed my door as Julie sat on the edge of my bed. "I love your room. Your dad must really want you to be happy." She said.

"He does spoil me a bit, but it comes in handy at moments like this because I can help my friend find the perfect outfit to go to the movies in." I said.

"What are you talking about? I am not crashing your date with Liam." She protested.

"You are not crashing. We will just give you a ride because I heard Milton say last night that he was going to the movies today and it will be the perfect opportunity for you to join him. And it is not really a date." I said with a grin.

"You are terrible, but I love it. What should I wear?" Julie said.

I opened the doors to my closet and Julie's eyes bugged out. "Kim, you have so many choices. How do you ever decide?" She asked.

"You just start with one piece that you love and build on that and it all depends on the occasion. Since we are working on catching Milton's eye, I was thinking this skirt for starters. What do you think?" I asked her swaying the skirt back and forth in front of her. It was a white satin skirt that I had made myself.

She jumped up and came running over to me. "I love it. Where did you get this?" She said.

"Actually, I made it. I make a lot of my favorite clothes. My dad will get me whatever material I need." I told her.

"This is amazing! You are unbelievable." She said excitedly. "What are we putting with it?"

"Well, I was thinking that this would be perfect with it." I said pulling out a form fitting black lace short sleeve top with a solid black underlay. It had a mild scoop neck with a white collar. As I held it up, Julie started jumping up and down.

I grabbed my Bella Rose black and white cardigan and a pair of black and white heels that I love. I laid everything out on the bed for her and then went to my jewelry box. I got out a cameo pin and ring that were my mom's and put them on my dresser. I found my silver diamond barrel bracelet and a pair of black onyx earrings. When I had everything out, I turned back to her and smiled.

"What do you think?" I asked.

"I love it all! You are the best friend in the world!" She squealed.

"Well, let's get busy." I said as I grabbed the curlers out of my bathroom and plugged them in. "I am going to take a quick shower and then it will be your turn."

I ran into the bathroom and hurried to get done as fast as possible. I threw my robe on and Julie got showered while I brushed and dried my hair. I had left a robe for her and she came out so excited. I sat her down and started on her hair. Once it was dry, I put the curlers in it and then I put some in mine. I started on her makeup next and she literally couldn't sit still.

"You have to sit still for me to get this right." I told her.

"I know. I am just so excited. Do you really think Milton will notice me?" She asked.

"Milton and every other guy around." I answered. "Besides our uniforms for Phil's tonight will get attention, too."

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"You didn't look in the bag?" I said.

"No. Why?" She replied.

I grabbed the bag from my closet and held up the skirt and shirt for tonight. "I did not look in my bag. I like it, but I don't know if I can pull that top off very well." She said.

I smiled at her and gave her a wink. "I think you can." I replied.

She laughed lightly and we continued with our makeovers. There was a knock at my door and I answered to find my dad with a tray with two plates and soda on it for us. "I thought you ladies could use something to drink and eat since you are working so hard up here." He said.

"Thank you." I replied taking the tray from him and sitting it down on the table in my room.

"No problem. I just wanted you to have plenty of strength to finish what you are starting." He said teasingly while he pointed at my curlers.

"Ha ha. Very funny, Dad. We are going to finish up so that we are ready when Liam gets here." I said.

"Alright. I have to get to the base with the guys for awhile so I may not be able to give you a ride home. Will you be able to find one? I don't want you walking home alone." He said seriously.

"Yes. I can find a ride. I will see you in the morning. Love you, Dad." I said as he left the room.

"Love you too, sweetheart." He said as he left.

"Who are you going to have give you a ride home?" Julie asked excitedly. "Liam? Harry? Or Jack?" She teased.

"Not funny! I figured I could catch one with you and Milton since I am sure he will hang out at Phil's after the movies." I said teasingly back at her.

"Very nice." She said.

I did my makeup quickly and like the way it looked. Then I started taking Jule's curlers out and pinning her hair up while we both ate some of the food my dad had brought to us. I put a small white hair clip in it that had a feather and some flowers on it. Julie slipped on the shirt and skirt and I helped her with the jewelry. She twirled around in front of my mirror looking at herself.

"I love this so much!" She said as she slipped her feet into the shoes and the put the cardigan on partially buttoning it up.

"You look fabulous, Jules!" I told her.

"Well, hurry up and finish yourself." She said excitedly.

I took my curlers out and quickly pinned my hair up partially off of my neck. I put on a Wine and Dynamo Headband that was jeweled flowers. Then I slipped on my black pearl collared shirt and coral colored skirt. I grabbed my mom's pearl and silver bracelet, pearl earrings, and my black and white Marvelous heels. I didn't want to just wear one of my cardigans so I put my black leather jacket on. I picked up my matching purse and with one last look in the mirror was ready to go.

We stood side by side looking in my mirror. "We look absolutely fabulous!" I said with a big smile.

We headed down the stairs and I put the tray away in the kitchen. We had a little time before Liam would be here so we sat down to watch some TV while we waited. There was a knock at the door and I got up to get it.

"Hi, Liam." I said with a smile.

"Hi. You look really nice." He said.

"Thank you." I replied. "I was wondering if it would be alright for us to give Julie a ride to the movies? She is supposed to be meeting someone there."

"Yeah. That's no problem." He answered with a smile.

"Perfect." I said. "Jules, are you ready?" I grabbed our bags with our work dresses in them for later.

"Yes. I am definitely ready." She said as she came from the living room.

"Right this way, ladies." Liam said as he waited for us holding my door open.

He then ran down ahead of me and opened the passenger front door for me and the back door for Julie. Liam definitely knew how to be a gentleman which was nice. We listened to some music on the radio while he drove to the drive-in.

When we pulled up, the place was packed. Liam paid for me and Julie because he was being really nice. "I am going to walk over and get some popcorn and help Jules find Milton. Do you want anything to drink?" I asked Liam.

"Yeah, but I will just walk up there with you and I can get it for us." He said so sweetly that I know I had to of blushed lightly.

We all walked up to the snack stand and sure enough Milton was standing there. The best thing is that when he saw Julie, his eyes about popped out of his head.

He walked over to her and said, "Hi, Julie. You look really pretty." He looked down at his feet with a blush growing on his cheeks.

"Thank you, Milton. It is nice to see you here." She said.

"Are you here with someone or would you like to sit with me? I borrowed my dad's car." He asked.

She looked at me and smiled really big. "I just came with Kim and Liam, but I would love to join you." She said.

He looked up at her like he was shocked and then he smiled. "Great. Would you like something to drink?" He offered as he held out his arm for her and she took it.

"See you later, Jules." I said as they walked away together.

"Well, are you ready to go watch the movie?" Liam asked offering me his arm.

"Sounds great." I said smiling and taking his arm with mine.

Liam carried our snacks back to his car with a smile across his face. "You really do look pretty, Kim." He said.

"Thank you. I wanted to look nice." I replied.

When we made it back to his car, he opened the door for me and I climbed in. He put the top down so that we could see the movie better and we just sat there and talked until it started. He really is a nice guy and we were having a nice time when some of the other football guys came up to us.

"Hi, Kim." Zayn said.

"Hi, guys." I replied seeing Louis and Niall were with him.

"Hi, guys." Liam said a little more disgusted that they were here.

"Do you two mind some company?" Zayn said teasingly.

I sat there quietly because it was Liam's car and I really didn't mind either way. "We were trying to get to know each other." Liam answered.

"Great. We would all like to know more about you, Kim. Like where did you get so good at doing all of those flips?" Zayn replied while leaning up against the side of the car with a grin.

"I have been doing tumbling for a long time. My mom always loved doing it so she insisted that I learned." I said.

"That was your dad the other night at Phil's, right? Where was your mom?" Louis asked not being able to hide his interest since Zayn was going to ruin Liam's evening anyway.

"Yes that was my dad. He is in the navy so we move around a lot. My mom passed away four years ago." I answered.

The look on Louis's face was one of terror. "I am so sorry, Kim. I didn't know." He said.

I jumped up on my knees in the seat of the car and leaned over to put my hand on Louis's shoulder. "Don't worry. It is okay. I hadn't told you yet. It is fine, really!" I told him and he seemed to relax some.

"Well, we probably better get back to our car so you two can talk more." Niall said raising his eyebrows.

"Great. See you later, guys." Liam responded quickly.

They all walked away hesitantly and I turned back to Liam. "They seemed like they wanted to join us." I said.

"They just wanted to bother me." He said. "I haven't gone on very many dates lately."

I looked at him in disbelief. "You are the co-captain of the football team, an All State Head Defender, and a senior. I don't think I believe you." I said.

"Well, believe it. None of the girls at school could catch my attention and hold it. They are all so much alike and I wanted someone different. I was about to give up and then you jumped up on the stage with us and talked Phil into letting us sing and I realized that finally someone real had arrived." He explained.

I couldn't help but smile while he was talking. He was being so sweet and sincere. I didn't know what to say. "I am pretty different." I said. "I have heard that a lot lately."

Liam reached over and pushed a loose piece of hair out of my eyes and stared into my eyes. "I mean it as a complement." He said. "A lot of the girls around here are just looking for the guy that can help make them popular and I am tired of their games. You don't seem to worry what people think. You just do your own thing and I like that…a lot!"

I smiled at him. "Thank you. That really does mean more to me than you could know." I said which made him smile more.

The movie started and we both turned our attention to the screen. "Is it alright to sit up on the back of your seats?" I asked.

"Sure." He said and we both sat on the backs of the seats instead of down inside the car.

I placed my hands on the seat backs on either side of where I was sitting to hold myself in place. Liam sat his hand down on mine that was closest to him and looked over at me with a small smile. I said we were just friends, but I could see that it was going to be hard to convince him of that. He really was nice and what would be so wrong with going with a nice guy and actually having a boyfriend. Who am I kidding we will never be here for long enough? I can't do that to him or anyone else. I will just have a nice time tonight and then have to make sure he understands besides this would not help things between him and Jack at all.

We had finished our popcorn and Liam jumped out of the car to go get a refill for us. I watched him walk away and then turned back to the movie.

JACK'S POV

We had everything planned and had already had a 'talk' with Harry and four of the other jock idiots which went really well. I couldn't keep myself away from the drive-in because I wanted to keep an eye on Kim. I wanted to kill him when he pushed the hair out of her face, but when he held her hand the feeling grew.

I saw him get out of the car to get refills and knew this was the perfect time for Brody and the guys to take care of him. I watched as he walked up to the snack stand and saw the guys following him, but then someone else pulled him around the side of the building. I tried to see who it was, but couldn't tell.

I thought about going up to investigate it for myself, but knew that my guys could handle it and I had the perfect opportunity to go spend some time with Kim. I climbed off of my bike and walked toward her.

"Hi, beautiful!" I said as I made it up to the car. She looked so cute sitting up on the back of the chair.

"Hi, Jack. What are you doing here?" She said surprised.

"You mentioned the movie and I didn't have anything else to do so I thought I would come check it out. I didn't expect to see you alone." I said.

"Liam, just went to get some more popcorn. He should be back by now." She said looking toward the snack stand. "I can't see him. Do you think everything is….?" She turned to look at me and there was a bit of a glare in her eyes. "Jack, tell me you didn't do anything to him. You promised."

She has some real guts. No one talks to me like this, but she is so cute when she does it that I can't even get upset. "I told you I wouldn't and I didn't. I don't know what happened to him." I said.

Then she really surprised me. She jumped out of the car over the closed door and ran over to another car. I saw some more of the jocks and I felt the anger growing inside of me. She came back over to me with four other guys with her.

She walked right up to me and said, "Since you didn't do anything to Liam, I know that you will help us find him, right?"

I looked at her in disbelief. I didn't want her to walk up and find him with my guys, but what was I supposed to do. I will just have to deal with her being mad and she will get over it. "Sure. I will help you." I said.

We all walked up to the snack stand and Kim asked them if they had seen Liam. I didn't see my guys or Liam anywhere and I still didn't who had pulled him out of sight. Kim was about to head around the corner of the building and I grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

"Listen, I don't know what is going on, but why don't you stay here with the workers and let us go find Liam." I told her.

"I am not scared, Jack. I just want to make sure that Liam is alright." She said to me looking me straight in the eyes. "Now let's go altogether if you are so worried about me."

I shook my head at her and pushed her behind me as we went around the corner. I heard someone groaning and saw Liam sitting on the ground leaning up against the building. No one else was around and I was confused. Kim ran right past me and over to him.

"Liam, oh my gosh. What happened? Can you get up?" She said in a very panicked voice.

"I'm fine, Kim. I just got jumped by four guys. I'm fine." He said putting his hand on her cheek and looking into her eyes. I really hate this guy.

"You want some help up." I said offering my hand to him trying to get Kim away from him.

"I'm good, Jack. Thanks for your concern." He said as his friends helped him up.

"I am going to get some ice and towels to clean you up." Kim said heading back up to the snack stand.

"How did you arrange this, Jack?" Zayn asked.

"It wasn't him." Liam said. "It was another gang because his guys were even fighting with them some and that is why I am still talking."

I walked up closer to him. "Another gang…Are you sure?" I asked.

"Yeah. They were wearing black leather jackets with red on them." He said.

Kim came around the corner and dropped everything that was in her hands and gasped. We all looked at her with concern trying to figure out what was wrong with her. She bent down to pick everything up with a flustered look on her face. I walked over to help her and saw the same look of pain in her face that I had seen last night when she mentioned her ex-boyfriend.

"Kim, are you alright?" I asked.

She just shook her head not saying anything and she was definitely breathing harder. I was really worried about her, but I was not the only one. Liam and the other jocks had made their way over to us.

"Kim, what's wrong?" Liam asked.

She snapped out of it. "Nothing. Sit him down at this table so I can look him over please." She said quickly.

We all knew something was wrong, but we were not going to get it out of her right now. She started tending to Liam while we all looked at each other wondering what was going on.

"Liam, I really think we should take you to the hospital to make sure you are alright." Kim said.

"Kim, you are shaking. I am fine so calm down." He told her.

"I'm fine." She said, but I could hear the shakiness in her voice.

I was scanning the area for my guys, but not seeing any of them. I was not about to let Kim out of my sight, but I had to find them so we could take care of this rival gang showing up. Julie and Milton ran over to see what was going on.

Kim stood up straight and took a few deep breaths. "Liam, are you sure you alright?" she asked calmer.

"Yes. Are you going to tell us what is wrong?" He asked her.

"I don't know. You said it was guys in black leather jackets with red on them?" She said questioningly.

"Yeah. Why?" Liam asked.

"I am really sorry, Liam. This is all my fault." She said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked jumping in to their conversation.

"It sounds like my ex-boyfriend's gang. I didn't think they would have any way of knowing I was here. I can't believe that they would do this. Dylan is such a jerk, especially when he is mad." She explained.

Liam looked up at her and pushed back a piece of hair that had fallen down in her face. "Kim, this is not your fault. Don't worry about it. They just surprised me and I was outnumbered. This is going to be taken care of." He told her.

I laughed. "Yeah. We will take care of it." I said looking at Liam.

"No. None of you are doing anything. I will have to let my dad know and he will deal with it. I don't want any more of you getting hurt because of me." She said trying to be brave.

We all shook our heads at her. "I don't think so." I said. "My guys and I will handle this."

"No, I am serious. There are a lot of them. Please don't get in the middle of this." She said. "Just let my dad and his guys handle it."

"Kim, you dad is leaving, remember?" Julie said. "Did he say when he would be back? You can't stay alone if that crazy guy is here."

"Great. We can figure that out later." I said. "Why don't we get to Phil's and we can talk more there?" I grabbed Kim's hand and started to walk her toward my bike.

"What do you think you are doing?" She asked.

"I am taking you to Phil's so that we can figure this out." I answered.

"I will take her in my car." Liam said.

"I don't think you should be driving right now, do you?" I said.

"I am fine!" He replied.

"I am not taking a chance that you aren't and letting you drive her anywhere. Beside she will be safer with me on my bike because no one will expect her to be on it." I explained.

"I will be fine, Liam. Can you guys drive Liam to Phil's?" Kim asked the other jocks.

Niall was going to drive Liam's car, Milton had his for him and Julie, and then Zayn took Louis in his car. I got on my bike and Kim sat on the back sideways. I shook my head. "I don't think that riding like that is all that safe." I told her.

"It is fine. I have done it before. Let's get going." She said with a smirk.

I started the bike as Kim wrapped her arms around me. Not fully trusting her sitting sideways on the bike, I used one of my hands to hold her arms to my chest tightly as we took off. On our way to Phil's, several of my guys joined us on their bikes. I was glad to see them, but was wondering what had happened. We pulled in and I didn't want to let go of Kim, but she slid off the side of the bike and went over to Liam's car to help him out. Of course, getting beat up will only help him with her.

We all walked inside and sat down at the two large booths right in the door. Kim went to the back and I followed her. "Where are you going?" I asked.

"Jack, I am fine. I am just getting Phil's first aid kit so I can really make sure that Liam is alright." She stepped up to me and put her hand on my chest. "You really don't have to worry so much."

"Are you ready to tell me more about this guy so I know what we are dealing with?" I asked and her entire expression changed to one of fear. I touched her cheek and said, "Kim, I am not going to let anyone hurt you."

She looked up at me and smiled. "I'm fine. He is not a nice guy at all. What happened to Liam was nothing, just a warning. I will have to deal with him." She said looking me in the eyes.

"I don't think so. Kim, what did he do you?" I asked very seriously.

She had a single tear fall down her cheek and I caught it on my finger and wiped it away. "He just likes things a certain way and when they aren't that way, he uses his fists to make sure that everyone knows he is not happy." She looked down at her feet as she spoke to me and I felt the anger grow in me toward this guy that I have never even met. I put my hand under her chin pulling her eyes back to mine. "Jack, I don't want any of you to get hurt because of me. He will talk to me. I can deal with this."

"You just told me that he hit you. You really think that I am going to let you anywhere near him!" I said and was unaware that we had company in the back room.

"He's right, Kim. I hate to agree with Jack, but you are not handling this. We will handle it." Liam said stepping up beside me and putting his hand lightly on Kim's arm.

"Alright, listen. I am not child and I know Dylan. These guys are not someone you want to mess with. There are a lot of them and they are dangerous. All he wants is to talk to me. I can do that here, in public. You guys can even be here and watch from a distance. I need to find out what he is really after or this is going to get a lot worse. Can you two at least let me try?" She asked with a straight face.

I looked at Liam and as much as I hated agreeing with him on anything, I just wanted Kim safe. "I don't think it is a good idea. He doesn't know where you are. Why would we tell him?" I said.

"Jack, he found me at the drive-in. It won't take him long to be here. Trust me." She replied. "I am going to get the first aid kit and will be right back to look you over so go sit down." She smiled as she walked into the storage closet.

"So I guess we are working together on this?" Liam said holding his hand out to me.

I shook his hand and nodded my head. "Yep. I guess so, but this doesn't settle things between us." I told him.

"Yeah, I know. I just want her to safe. After that happens, we will deal with the rest of it." Liam said.

"Deal." I agreed.

We turned to walk back out to sit down as Kim came back into view. She took care of Liam cleaning up a few small gashes on his cheek and fists. As much as I hated him, I wanted her safe more and if that meant working with the jocks for now, then that was what we were going to do. Honestly, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this Dylan guy.
