The first two periods were alright kinda boring but now it's 3rd period and I have gym with Jack. Hopefully it's not like dodge ball or something. I walk around and finally find the gym. I go to the locker room, change and walk out to the gym floor. "Hey Kate!" I hear a voice from behind me. I turn around to see Jack jogging to me. "Hey" I say back "so what are we doing today?" I ask. "Pretty sure we are going outside and playing softball" he says. I'm pretty good at softball considering I played for a couple years and helped couch a mini team. I nod my head and follow him and the rest of the class outside. Me and Jack ended up on separate teams. This kid on my team keeps starring at me and it's pretty annoying. I think his name is Cameron. He's really tall with brown short hair. We were up to making our own team captains so everyone voted for Cameron on my side and everyone voted on Jack for his team. We flipped a coin and we ended up batting first. A girl named Natalie batted first. She swung at the most wild way. She struck out. Fun. Cameron was up next. He stood like he knew what he was doing. He didn't swing at the first one and it was a ball. At least he knows how to play. He swung at the second one and hit it passed 2nd base. He ran pretty fast and made it to 2nd base. It was my turn. I haven't done this in a while hopefully I still got it. I looked at jack (btw he's the pitcher) he looked at me and smirked like he knew how to get me out. I can do this. I take a deep breathe and step into the box. I bend my knees just enough to keep balance and steady my bat just above my shoulder. I stare right at Jack waiting for him to pitch the ball. I felt kinda shakey but that's how I felt anytime I was up to bat. I see he winds up he hand and let go. I gotta admit it was really fast. I watch the ball and swing as the ball makes contact with my bat. I do what you usually do for softball or baseball. As soon as it hits the bat drop it and run. So I drop the bat and run as fast as I can to first base then to second. I stop for a quick second to see where the ball went. I turn and see someone running back with it from the outfield so I keep running and stop at third base. Cameron made it to home. Next was a boy named Nick. He hit the ball but it came my way. Crap. The ball fell right behind me to the ground. I ran as fast as my legs could go and saw the catcher catch the ball I kept running and slid down and touched home plate before she could tag me. It was safe. I got up and looked at Jack and slightly laughed. I go to my team and they all high give me. "Nice slide there" Cameron says while walking up to me. "Thanks, nice hit" I say back. "You play?" He asks "Yeah, you?" "Yep". We both giggle. "Well what are you going to play for outfield or infield?" He asks. "I play catcher, and you?" "Pitcher". I'm kind of scared to try to catch his pitches he's probably really good. We get our third out and start to head out. "Wow I didn't know u could play softball" Jack says walking to me. "Just a little bit" I chuckle. I walk over and put on the catcher pads. When I'm finished I walk over to my spot behind home plate. He gets a few practice pitches so I can get used to it. He pitched once and I catch it as it almost knocks me down. Damn. I throw it back to him and they call in a batter. The first up was Jack. Great. He steps up to the box and looks down at me. "Good luck" I say in a sarcastic tone. He smiles and looks back at the pitcher. He pitches the ball and jack misses. I catch it while falling a bit. I stand and throw the ball back. I squat back down and get ready. This time Jack hits the ball and it goes straight at Cameron. Since he's tall he reaches up and catches the ball. "Out!" The teacher yells. Class is over and my team won. I jog to catch up with Jack. "Good game" I say he chuckles. "I totally let you win" he says. "Haha you wish". We look at each other and smile. He ends up running into a pole. We both start dying laughing out loud. We get inside and part ways to go change. I come back out and Jack isn't out yet. How long does it take for a boy to change. I decide to wait outside the gym in the hall for him since we have lunch next together. I stand there and look on my phone. All the sudden my phone is being dropped to the floor. I froze and couldn't move. I tried to move but failed and fell onto the floor. I start tightening up and start to seize. My eyes felt like they rolled to the back of my head. I couldn't see much it was all blurry. I couldn't control myself. I see a figure over me and he sat next to me and rolled me onto my side. I stopped moving and everything went black but I could still hear everything. It was a little muffled. I felt my body being picked up off the floor and being carried somewhere. Then everything stopped and I no longer heard or felt anything.
<Time skip>
I wake up laying in a bed. I sit up and look around. I don't see anyone. I'm in the nurses office by myself. I hear the door open. I look up and we Jack walking in. "Welcome back" he says chuckling. I groan in reply. "What even happen" I say looking at him. He looked back at me and says "you had a little seizure in the hall and I carried you to the nurse" "ohhh" I say. "Does this usually happen ?" He asks "no this is the first time ever" I say kinda worried. "It's fine. Your okay now and that's all that matters right?" He says putting his hand on my shoulder. I didn't realize it but we have been starring at each other for a few minutes before he started to get closer to my face. He leaned in and started to close his eyes. Soon enough we were so close that we had no more gap between us. We were kissing. No. We were making out. In the nurses office. He breaks the kiss and just stays close and looks into my eyes. "Goodbye" He says and stands up. "What?" I say confused. He pulls out a gun and points it to his head. "NOO-" BOOM.Jacks POV
I was sitting there in the nurses office sitting in the room with Kate passed out still I her bed. I carried her to the office after her seizure in the middle of the hall. I came out of the locker room and saw her on the floor. She's still passed out but she must be dreaming because she will keep twitching here and there. I look down then all the sudden I hear her mumble something. I could understand it so I got closer. "Kate-" I say "no. no. No. NO... Jack!!!" She started getting louder. She said my name like I was dying. "Kate!" I start to shake her. She open her eyes quickly and looks at me with fear. "I'm right here Kate. It's okay" I say calming her down. She just continues to stare at me in fear. I pull her into a hug for a minute. "It's alright" I say. We pull away and she looks at me more comforting now. I wonder what happen. "What happen?" I say as I say a chair next to her bed. "Just a bad dream" she says. "Well tell me about it" I say. "Well I woke up in this bed and I walked in and we ended up-" she paused for a second. "We ended up talking... and then you say goodbye then shout yourself..." she says. I felt so bad. "Well I'm here now so let's forget about that and let's go to my dojo" I say. "Wait, what about school?" She says confused. "You slept through it, now let's go" I pull her out of the bed and drag her all the way to the mall and into the dojo.
