Right When You Think Life Is Good

Chapter 13: New Found Secrets

It's been 2 days since we picked up Cade and the only thing that's been on the news since then is Kim running out to Cade when we got to his house.

The photos of Kim and Cade hugging are everywhere I go. I know that there is nothing going on between them but it is a little annoying hearing people talking about how Kim is cheating on me. She's not the type of person that would do that. I have gotten a lot of fan mail talking about how Kim is no good for me and that their sorry that she cheated on me, but what thy don't realize is that their wrong.

Kim is being targeted by my fans because she hugged her cousin. I feel really bad for her. I have to figure out a way to get rid of this.

"Hey Kimmy." I said, walking into the back lounge where Kim was sitting alone. "What're you up to?"

"Just thinkin'" Kim replied. I sat down next to her and she laid her head in my lap.

"What're you thinking about?" I pushed.

"Us." I looked at her as if she had three heads. "Come on Jack, your fans hate me and their gonna' start hating you to unless we break up." Kim whispered.

"That's not gonna' happen, I will find a way to get rid of this. I couldn't care less about what my fans think in terms of us. That's not their problem, that's ours." I said.

"Well maybe we could just have me write a note to you 'apologizing' for everything and you could read it I front of fans or something." Kim suggested.

"No that's a terrible idea." I said quickly.

"What?" Kim asked shocked by my sudden outburst. "Why? What's wrong with it?"

"It's just- what if- people won't believe it." I said unable to form a coherent sentence.

"Really Jack?" Kim asked, sitting up.

"What?" I asked, hoping she would drop the subject.

"I'm willing to let things go." Kim said. I smiled and leaned over to kiss her when she began talking again. "But this is not one of them." My smile dropped. "Come on Jack, what happened to no secrets. We're best friends."

"I know that I said no secrets but I really can tell you this." I tried even though I knew there was no way that it was going to work.

"Why not?" Kim was visibly annoyed by now.

"Because."

"Because what?" Kim said in a louder tone then before.

"I just can't." I whispered. "I'm sorry." Kim got up and walked to the front of the bus.

I stayed in the back and laid down across the couch. 'Is all of this really worth it?, wouldn't it be easier to just tell her?" I asked myself.

"Makes more sense to me." I heard a voice say.

"What?" I asked I looking at Cade.

"Kim seems pretty mad, whatever it is upset her a lot." Cade responded.

"What are you saying?" I asked confused.

"I'm saying the only one that can fix a problem with Kim is the one who started it." He then walked out of the room with a smug look on his face. I thought about what he had said for a minute before going to find Kim.

"Hey Kim," I began, sitting down next to her. "I'm ready to tell you." I said.

"Jack you don't ha-" She began but I cut her off.

"Yes I do, anyways the reason the whole letter thing wouldn't work is because I'm dyslexic." I said slowly.

"What's wrong with that?" Kim asked confused.

"I just didn't want to tell you because I didn't want you to think I'm stupid." I whispered.

"I don't think your stupid. I know what your capable of Jack. Dyslexia doesn't make you stupid, it makes you human. Every person on the face of the Earth has something that not everybody else has and yours just happens to be Dyslexia." Kim told me.

"Wow, thanks Kim, I had never thought about it like that before.

So this chapter took me a little longer then I wanted it to but I plan on posting the next chapter sometime this weekend. Also sorry this chapter is really short, its more of a filler chapter.

Last but not least PLEASE COMMENT, I need to know what you guys think, that's what helps me become a better writer and make it so that this sort is still interesting for you guys.
