Final chapter. *Takes deep breath and lets it out* Thank you guys so freaking much!

I reach the mall entrance and through the courtyard. I find the dojo and burst in. He's not punching a dummy. I go into Rudy's office to find him watching some kind of Bobby Wasabi movie. He looks at me and pauses the movie.

"Hey Kim, what's up?"

"Ha-"

"You wanna watch?"

"No, I-"

"Need training?"

"No, I ne-

"Did you-"

"I need to know if you've seen Jack!" I scream, not being able to wait anymore.

"Okay? Well, he didn't come in here. Did you check the Davenport's?"

"Yeah, I was just there."

"What about his house?"

"Idiot!" I yell at myself before pushing the door of his office open and yanking the one to the dojo open. I run back to the mansion neighborhood. I find Jack's house and run up to the door and ring the doorbell. I get impatient and ring it again. Mrs. Brewer answers.

"Hello Kim."

"Hi. Has Jack come home?" I quickly ask. I notice her face fill with worry.

"No, I thought he was with you at the Davenport's."

"He ran out."

"Why?" I'd rather change the subject. I don't have to. She does for me. "Is he alright?"

"Yeah," After I say that, I realize he might not be. Marcus is last source. "Do you know where he might have gone?"

"Did you check the dojo?"

"Yeah,"

"Well, I'm not sur- the park!" I yell as realization hits me.

I run off the doorstep and towards the mall... again. I should really start with my priorities instead of running all over town. I pass the entrance and the courtyard. I soon reach the grassy area we call the park. I look around and I can't find him. I walk around and stop at a bush. I bend down and pull out a piece of fabric. I pull out the object and it's a backpack. Jack's backpack. I let out a breath I didn't know I've been holding. If he wasn't here, I would have to find Bree, Chase, and Adam to go after Marcus. Again. But that doesn't mean he's here. That means his backpack is here. I scan the park again. My eyes cross something that catches my attention.

A tree.

Okay, I lied. Not a tree but the tree. The tree I found him in when he found out he's bionic. I can't believe I didn't think of that before I ran all over town. Just then I notice I'm panting. I stuff the backpack back into the bush and walk over to the tree. I jump up and grab a branch. I pull myself up and keep climbing. After quite a few branches of climbing, I find Jack. He's sitting on a branch higher than I'm currently on, with his back facing me.

"I've been looking everywhere for you." I say before climbing the last branch.

"Well, you found me." He snaps. I take a seat next to him on the branch.

"Yeah, I did." I mutter. I found him. Now what?

"So?"

"Why'd you run off?" I ask. He doesn't answer. "Jack?"

"I was scared. There. I told you. Jack Brewer is afraid of something besides clowns."

"But... scared of what?" I try to make eye contact but he turns his head even more away from me.

"rejection." It was so quiet I could barely hear it. (A/N Okay, this is getting pretty cheesy)

"I wouldn't reject you." I whispered, so that if there was anyone else here, only he would hear it.

He looks up so his eyes meet mine. "Why wouldn't you?" He whispers.

"Because, I love you too." I whisper.

"You do?" He whispers. I nod.

"Why are we whispering?" I whisper.

"Dramatic effect." He whispers. We both laugh at this.

"So..."

"So..."

"Now what?"

"Now... we should get down before this branch breaks." I giggle.

"Yeah." I make my way off the branch.

"But," He pulls my arm. "I have to ask you something first." He reaches for my hand and I look back at him into his eyes. "Will you go to Phalafel Phil's with me? As a date?"

"I would love to." I say. He smiles. "I told you you wouldn't have to face rejection." I say and he chuckles.

"Yeah, now come on. Let's go. Everyone else is probably wondering where we are."

"You're the one that ran away!"

"But you followed." He comebacks.

"So?"

"My point exactly." I roll my eyes.

"Come on."


"Hey, where have you guys been?" Milton asks. He, Eddie, Jerry, Leo, Chase, Bree, Adam, and his grandfather are all sitting at the table, some of them with a milkshake. Jack and I take a seat next to each other in the last two open chairs.

"The park."

I answer. Jack takes my hand from under the table and gives it a squeeze. Everyone else go's back to talking about whatever they where talking about. Bree, Chase, and their grandfather send me a look saying "What happened?" In a pretty cocky way. I just look at Jack and he looks at me. We all laugh, leaving Leo, Eddie, Jerry, and Milton confused. Well, Milton doesn't look so confused. I think he understands what's going on.
