Chapter 3: Kim's POV:
Jack and I got some stares as we walked into the Olive Garden, which was chosen by Jerry, only because he saw some cute waitresses as we passed by the window. Anyway, as we sat down at the booth, I heard some older ladies whispering about how 'Look so young to be parents' as Jack and I set the kids down between us. After this had been going on for about ten minutes, I finally walked right up to those ladies and gave them a piece of my mind. Just so you know, you don't always have to assume that people are teenage parents just because they're carrying kids around, because FYI, we are BABYSITTING these kids for the summer." I took a long breath so that I could continue my rant, but Jack dragged me back to our booth, leaving the women in shock by my outburst. "Hey, calm down. Let's just order." Jack said rubbing my back soothingly. "You're right, I shouldn't care what they think." I said, taking a deep breath. Meanwhile, even though Jack and I started going about our business as if nothing happened, the guys were looking at me with their jaws dropped about a thousand feet. They were probably shocked that I would yell at elderly women. Of course me attacking THEM wasn't unusual, but I'm sure they never thought I'd do what I had just done. Instead of yelling at then to shut their mouths and get over it, I decided to do something that would give them nightmares. "You boys might want to close your mouths. All kinds of things could fly in there, and some might even be... Fatal." I said sweetly, knowing that there was no way any of them would be sleeping that night. I winked at them as I munched on some garlic bread, causing them to cower in their seats even farther. I continued to torture them until our orders arrived, and probably would've continued as we ate if Jack and I didn't have to help the twins with their spaghetti. I was about to take a bite of my salad when I felt a small tug on my shirt, followed by a whimper. I turned to see Bree with tears streaming down her face. "What's wrong kiddo?" "I can't cut my sghetti whike Unkie Jack." (I can't cut my spaghetti like Uncle Jack). "Would you like me to help you cut it?" "Just wike Unkie Jack?" (Just like Uncle Jack?). I smiled, "Just like Unckie Jack." After I helped Bree with her dinner, she looked at me as if I were her hero. "Thank-you Unkie Kim." "You're welcome, but it's Aunt Kim." "Oh, sowwy! Thank-you Unk- Aunt Kim." (Oh, sorry! Thank-you Unc- Aunt kim.) I smiled at her and fave her a hug. It's not her fault she called me Uncle Kim. After Bethany had dropped them off, Rudy introduced us and told them that they could call all of us Uncle _, forgetting that I'm a GIRL, and utterly confusing the kids. The rest of dinner went smoothly and we went to the rental cars after Rudy paid the check. The reason we got two rentals was because there were too many of us to fit into one car once we added the twins. Rudy went with Eddie, Milton and Jerry, and Jack and I took the other on with the kids since we were staying in a separate beach house. Halfway through the parking lot, Jack pulled me aside. "Go ahead and wait by the car with Bree and Trevor, I'll be right back." "Okay, but hurry before these two crash from their sugar high." "I'll be quick, I promise." I watched him for a second before taking each of the twins' hands (which were covered in cake frosting) , and heading towards the rental. Jack was true to his word, and returned in five minutes, hiding something behind his back. "What's behind your back Jack?" "You'll see." He replied smiling, and walking up to the twins. "I have a surprise for you guys." The word 'surprise' seemed to give Bree and Trevor a boost to their sugar high. "Surprise?!" the exclaimed in unison. "Yep. And here... it... is!" Jack pulled out two fuzzy stuffed dolphins from behind his back. Bree got pink and Trevor got blue. Jack picked them up as they squealed with happiness, and tossed them in the air, something my dad used to do to me when I was their age. I watched them for a while, smiling, until I realized that the kids should be in bed soon. Jack must've known what I was thinking, because he set the twins down and said, "Alright troops, time to head home!" Jack waited while I put the kids in their carseats and pulled me aside for the second time that night. "Here" He said, pulling out a jewelry box, and revealing a necklace with my name on it and the Wasabi Code engraved on the back. I gasped, and smiled at him. "Oh, Jack, you didn't have to, really." "I told you I had a surprise." "No... You told the kids that you had a surprise." "Same difference." Before I could protest any farther, he took the necklace and put it on me. "You look beautiful Kim." "You mean it?" "Of course, I mean, you always look pretty, but the necklace is a great addition." Jack said, and pulled me into a hug. Once the hug ended, we got into the car and smiled at each other like total idiots. "Now let's get these kids in bed." Jack said, breaking the silence and starting up the engine. "You said it." I replied, admiring my necklace in the rearview mirror. Jack's surprise was the perfect way to end the night.
