Hello my fellow FFn-ers! Still remember me? Haha. Well FYI, this is STILL proudly imperfect, just that now I'm known as rocks at my window, so… yeah…

Anyway, long time no write! Really sorry about that. This is a new multi-chapter, drabble-y sort of story I'm writing. Each chapter shouldn't exceed a 1000 words and it basically chronicles the awkwardness and sexual tension existing between a pair of lovebirds who have tragically ended their romantic relationship but are trying to get by with that overused, completely useless and horribly awkward tactic to 'just be friends'.

So this is kinda just a starter, to give you a glimpse of 'Awkward'. More coming soon ;)

Disclaimer: I do not own Kickin' It.

The only thing more awkward about trying to stay friends is trying to suggest trying to stay friends.

"Jack!"

The brunet turned around at the sound of the familiar voice, a flash of hope dashing through his mind. But deciding it wasn't plausible, the flame of hope sizzled out into chars, and he forced a smile upon his face.

"Hey, Kim," Jack Brewer greeted, the smallest of smiles tracing his lips.

The petite blonde stood in front of him, awkwardly shuffling her feet, which were warmed from the autumn cold by a pair of leather boots. She looked up, biting her lip, and Jack's heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

He loved it when she bit her lip.

"You know, this is the first time you've actually initiated a conversation with me ever since school started," Jack casually brought up after snapping out of his reverie.

Kim nodded. "I was hoping to kinda avoid that," she confessed. "But yeah, I guess so."

"So…"

"So…"

"Um…"

"Yeah."

"You wanted to tell me something, right? If not why would you have come to talk to me?"

"Oh come on, can't a girl just initiate a casual conversation with a friend?"

"Oh, we're friends?"

Kim blinked. "Um, yeah, I guess so. This is actually what I wanted to talk to you about. You see, I know things have been really weird lately and honestly I don't think it's fair to you if you suffer the loss of a friendship just because I broke up with you, so… I think it'll be great if we could just go back to being friends and forget all about the relationship we've shared. Wipe the slate clean, start afresh, ya know." She said this all really fast.

"You mean the one-and-a-half year relationship that took us two years to finally build up? We wipe the slate clean and start out again as friends?"

"E-e-e-e-exactly," Kim responded with a weary smile.

Jack shrugged. "I guess. I mean, it wouldn't hurt."

"Yeah – plus if we're gonna be spending so much time together at school and at the dojo and doing projects and all that kind of stuff, we might as well just make sure things aren't too weird."

"Yup."

"Hmm."

"So…"

"Uh, I gotta go."

"Why?"

"Um, because I have to go off with Grace?"

"Wait, Grace – oh hey Grace!"

"Jack, she said hi to you about ten seconds ago and you completely ignored her."

"Oops."

"Too busy staring at Kim, Jack?"

"Grace, it's too soon."

"It's never too soon."

…

"Well anyway, see ya Jack."

"Um, see ya too."

Jack stared at the blonde as she raced off to join Grace, his heart practically plummeting three thousand feet to the bottomless pit of the Underworld. His stomach twisted into an intangible knot and he couldn't resist drawing a sigh of complete hopelessness.

Not awkward at all.

TADA! Okay, I know that maybe it wasn't totally fabulous. But more chapters coming!

It's not exactly a story, per se. It's more like a compilation of moments which are all set around the same time period. Some may be related though. Depends on what kind of inspiration strikes. :)

In the meantime, you know the drill. Review! Tell me what you think. And also, I'm accepting ideas for chapters, so it's time to bring out your inner creativity and fangirl, and pop an idea down in the review section!

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed it!
