CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX, all the president's friends

Kate sighed heavily as she and Kim leaned against each other. They both sat on top of some mats stacked on each other. Bobby sat near them along with Joan. The two were both dressed as 'Romeo and Juliet', but with Joan she only had the wig and head piece on. Rudy sat on the floor by them and Eddie stood by him, wearing a mattress costume. 

Julie sat near Milton, who had an outfit similar to Abraham Lincoln, but half of the beard was off and his wig was messed up. Julie's hair was messed up as well along with Kate's and Kim's. Ashton sat in front of Kim, his hair messed up as well and he his shirt had a cut on the side of it. Jerry sat near Rudy wearing an orange jumpsuit and they were all eating a slice of pizza.

Then suddenly Jack walks in with a duffle bag and he smiles at the group. "Hey, guys." He greeted and they all voice their greetings, smiling at him.

"How was your family reunion?" Kim asked curiously. Jack had been gone for a few days in Colorado for a family reunion, Kate knew he would be shocked to learn what he had missed while he was gone. Kate was happy to see him though, she missed him while he was gone.

"Good." Jack smiles and goes to walk past the group, but he pauses and walks backward before he stands by the group. He stares at them with confusion. "What's going on?" He asked. Everyone starts talking at once, confusing Jack even more. He sets his duffle bag down. "Guys, stop. Hey, stop!" He raises his voice, gaining the other's attention and they all grow quiet. He glances at Milton. "Talk to me. Lincoln."

Milton stands. "Well, it all started when Jerry go his new locker."

**flashback**

walked through the halls in school next to Ashton, Jack, and Jerry. She was holding hands with Jack, of course. When they stopped at Jerry's locker, Ashton grinned and patted Jerry on his shoulder.

"I still can't believe you got locker 138." Ashton comments. Jerry had managed to switch lockers and locker 138 was where a few girls had their lockers nearby. "That's awesome!"

"I know, dude! My new locker's the best. There's always pretty girls around." Jerry smiles proudly. When a dark-skinned girl walked over to them, he gets Ashton's attention and backs up with them. "Yo." He then smirks at the girl as she opens her locker. "Hello, neighbor. Care to step into Club Jerry?" Jerry steps over to his locker to open it. Kate is surprised at the sight inside. Salsa music is playing and he has some different decorations hung up inside as well as colorful lights flashing. The girl looks at it with surprise and confusion before glancing over at Jerry with disgust. Jerry had been salsa dancing to the music the whole time. Kate's eyes widen when suddenly a fist is coming out of the locker. Jerry grins and fist bumps the fist and then the arm went back into the locker. "Sweet."

Kate wasn't surprised at all when the girl walked away. If she was her, she would also walk away. That was just weird. "That's so cool!" Ashton beams. "I want my locker to play salsa music." He pouted and Kate chuckled lightly, smiling at him with amusement.

Jerry watches with a gasp as the girl walked away. "I've never been rejected by a girl that pretty."

"I have a feeling there's a lot more of that coming." Jack remarked and Kate snickered, looking over at him with a smile. She had to agree with that.

Milton then walks over to the group with a frown and a tardy slip. "Our school president, Frank, kicked me off the bus today, so I had to walk to school. I got my first tardy."

Jerry chuckles and a smile tugs on his lips. "Awesome. Tardy party after school. I'll probably be a little late."

Kate chuckles at Jerry's comment and then shrugs her shoulders as she glances at Milton with sympathy. "It's not the end of the world, Milton. It's just a tardy."
