College Passion

Kimberly grabbed her coat and rushed out. Jason tried to stop her but she wouldn't. "Keys now!" Katherine shook her head.
"You've been drinking!"
"Keys, now or so help me Katherine, I'll.."
"I'll drive," Jason said. "I only had one drink like hours ago." Kimberly put on her coat and got into the driverseat.
"We all can't fit!"
"Fine, some stay, whatever! But lets go!"
"I'll stay," Katherine said.
"Me too," Tanya added. Rocky put his arm around Tanya.
"Call us, if you need us." Aisha nodded and got into the car. Adam told Tracy to stay. She agreed. Jason pulled out the lot. They were driving for about 10 minutes, when Kimberly gasped.
"He's close!" She sat forward. After another 5 minutes, Kimberly made Jason come to a halt. "He's here!" She jumped out.
"Kim, come back!" Kimberly ran ahead. They were near a curve. On the road you could tell a car went off the curve into the ditch. They ran to the edge. Kim screamed for Tommy. Kim's car was over the curve down the slope.
"Tommy!" Kimberly without thinking or hesitation went down. Jason tried to grab and stop her.
"KIM!" She slid down to the side. Adam stopped Jason. She slid hard, but didn't care.
"That tree won't hold both of you." Kimberly slid down to the small cliff where the car was barely hanging on with a tree. Aisha ran back to the car and grabbed a cell phone. She called 911.
"Where are we?!" Jason took the found and directed the police where they were. Kimberly slowly crept out to the car door.
"Tommy!" She slowly opened the car door. He was hunched over the wheel. The tree started to crackle and pop. "Tommy!"
"Kim, go slow!" Jason yelled. "Try and wake him!" Kimberly pulled the door all the way and touched Tommy.
"Tommy, baby, wake up." She couldn't get him awake, so she slowly got in the car to get his seatbelt off. As she released the belt, the tree popped more causing the car to fall a little more out. Kim screamed. She pulled on Tommy hard. "Tommy, babe, you gotta go on a diet!" She tugged him and pulled him from the car and to the small cliff. The tree finally gave as the two landed. "Bessy!" Kim watched it fall. Tommy woke up against Kim's chest. She rubbed his head. "Hey."
"Kim?"
"You owe me a car." He smiled and closed his eyes, hugging her tighter. Aisha turned to Jason and hugged him. Jason held her tight as she cried.
"I don't know what we are, but I'm willing to find out." Aisha raised her head. She smiled and nodded. They kissed. The police was able to pull the couple up and take Tommy to the hospital. Tommy had just a separated shoulder, bruised knee, bruised forehead and conscious.

Next morning

Kimberly helped Tommy from the car and into the cabin. She pulled off his jacket. Aisha already had the couch pulled out for him. Kimberly sat him down before pulling off her light blue coat.
"So, we have a huge problem. How are we getting home with one less car and neither of us are able to rent a car?" Kimberly covered up Tommy and shrugged. Tommy was on pain medication because of his headache and shoulder. He was asleep fast.
"I don't care, Tommy and I can stay here until my car is fixed." The car was in the shop, there wasn't as much damage from the fall as you would think. The mechanic, said the time will be waiting on the parts to come.
"You know, he's okay."
"I could have lost him last night, Sha." They hugged. Kimberly went and showered. She stood in front of the mirror in her towel crying. Jason pushed the door open.
"Hey." He pulled her to him. They hugged. She cried harder against him. Kimberly finally stopped and put on her pink waffle knit hoodie with white and black plaid miniskirt. She went over to Tommy and climbed into bed with him. Tommy moved to her chest. She held him tightly.

1pm
Kimberly was making lunch, as the rest was out enjoying skiing and snowboarding. Tommy asked them to go have fun, he was fine. Kimberly came in carrying some sandwiches.
"Are you still in a pain?"
"No, the medication helps with that."
"Good."
"I'm soo sorry about your car."
"Bessy will be fine. Now, eat." There was a knock at the door. Kimberly went to get it. "Tyler, hey. What are you doing here?"
"I heard about Tommy. I came to say I'm sorry."
"He's okay, but thanks."
"How's the car?"
"Bad."
"Look, I kind of feel responsible."
"Tyler, this wasn't your fault, it was just something that happened."
"I know, but still. Look, I was thinking, you could use my car."
"What?"
"Yea, drive it home and when you car is ready, I'll drive it to LA and get my car back."
"I can't allow you to give us your car."
"I never use it! Trust me. Because I'm asking you to."
"Thanks." He handed over some keys. There was 2 cars in the driveway.
"Now, don't go running it off some cliff." Kim laughed.
"Thank you." She hugged him. "I promise I'll take care of your car."
"See you later."
"Bye." She closed the door. "Well, problem solved." She put the keys on the counter.
"I guess he really is a good guy." Kim smiled. She reached over and kissed him.
"See, I told ya so." Tommy's arm was in a sling. Kim kissed his bad shoulder. Tommy groaned. "What's wrong?"
"Just my back."
"How about we go down to the Jacuzzi and I'll massage my poor baby's back."
"Okay, but you are going to have to help me."
"Of course." She put him on a pair of swimtrunks, after she put on her raspberry embroidered bikini. She slipped on her black flip flops and Tommy's brown sandals. She put his bathrobe around him and her gray marled duster. She carried the sandwiches and drinks and followed Tommy down to the hut.

3pm

Aisha came into the cabin with Jason. They looked around and found no one there. Jason pulled her to him. He cupped her face. They kissed. After 10 minutes, the door swung open with Rocky coming in with the rest. Jason and Aisha pulled away.
"Where are the bunnies?!"
"Don't call them that!"
"Where are they?" Aisha asked. "You think they are..."
"Let's find them." They all went down to the hut. Jason sneaked in to find Tommy holding Kim in his lap with one arm as she sucked on his neck. She moved him to flat on his back as they started kissing again, when Rocky's stiffed laughed from outside stopped them. Kimberly sat up.
"OUT!" Jason smiled and left. "Just 3 more days. Just 3 more day!" She helped Tommy up.
"We gotta get them having sex and soon," Aisha said as she saw them coming out the hut.
"How?"
"Trust me." Aisha ate some fruit and winked at Jason.
Kimberly put her PJ's, green tee, pink stripped pajama bottoms, and played her guitar for Tommy. He sat there listening as she played some new songs. It became a set, as everyone came around and listened. Aisha even played the piano.

Next morning
9am

Kimberly waved to everyone as they headed out.
"You should have gone out too."
"And miss a chance to spend with my baby. Hells no."
"Hells no?"
"You know how I work it." She climbed into bed with him. They kissed.
"It's been a week."
"Technically, not until 5 pm."
"Are you serious?!"
"Yes." She started kissing him again. "But we can still do this." Tommy put his arm around her as they kissed. Aisha and Jason changed all clocks one hour behind to fool the couple into having sex an hour before the deadline was over with. Kimberly put on a change of clothes as Tommy slept. She noticed with the medication, he usually is out for many hours at a time, but that's what 600mg of Vicodin does. The doctors wanted him resting the first few days before doing any strendous activities. Kim made sure of that. She watched a little tv, rubbing Tommy's head. Kimberly would check the clock nearly every hour. Finally, she slipped from bed and went into the bathroom. She stared at the tub and smiled. Tommy woke up and felt for Kimberly.
"Kim?" He looked over at the clock and it just read 2 pm. Kim had set up many candles and incents around the tube. She made a tray with chocolates, fruits, whip cream, and ice cream. She came ou the bathroom and found Tommy trying to get up.
"Hey, hold on." She quickly went to his side. "I have a suprise for you."
"What?"
"Well, it's a surprise!" Tommy leaned on her shoulder. He noticed she was naked beneath her robe. Tommy smiled as she opened the bathroom door.
"Wow, Kim." She sat him on the toilet and turned on the small stereo. She closed the door finally. Kimberly took off his sling slowly. Kim planted a kiss on his shoulder. Tommy smiled as she pulled his tank and boxers off. She pulled off his knee tape and helped him into the tub. Tommy sat down slowly as the bubbles surrounded him. "Aww..so great."
"Well, move over mister," Kim said opening her robe and dropped it to the ground. Tommy moved a little and allowed her inside. She moaned and sat down. Tommy held the side of the tub with one hand, his other arm couldn't be raised up much. Kimberly sat between his legs. She moved some bubbles along his arms and chest. She ran her hands along his bad shoulder. "Does it hurt much?"
"Only when I move it." He laughed. Kim started to massage it. "Ow." She slightly squeezed it.
"Sorry."
"Sok." She poured an handful of water over his shoulder. "Thank you."
"For what?"
"This. Saving my life."
"You've saved my life millions of times."
"Yea, as a ranger..."
"Not always with your powers. You've saved my heart." She held his face and kissed him. "Remember, Titanic, you jump, I jump?"
"Yea."
"Well, that's us."
"I jump, you jump. Let's just make sure that, this is the last jump."
"Deal." They kissed.


3pm

Tommy walked out the bathroom with Kimberly. They dried out and slid into the bed.
"Only a few hours to go."
"I am really proud of us."
"Why?"
"God, do you know how hard it is not to jump your bone?" Kim smiled as she helped lay down comforty. She ran her hand along his chest and face.
"Good to know." They both laughed. "Can we take a little nap?"
"Don't want to have to sex, not like anyone is around."
"Beautiful, 2 hours."
"Okay." She laid her head on his chest. Kim set the alarm for 5, but accidently let it skip to 6. She went to sleep with Tommy.
Aisha cursed as she looked inside. It was 4 by her watch, but the couple was still asleep. Jason came up behind her.
"We should wake them!"
"Nah, they won this battle. If we wake them and they see it's 5, they won't with us here. Damn it, I didn't think they could do it."
"None of us did, why do you think we made the bet."
"Okay. Let's go back."

6pm(clock time)

Kimberly woke up and clicked off the clock. She simply laid back on Tommy.
"Hungry?" She whispered. Tommy simply groaned and put his arm around her tighter. "Wanna have sex?" Tommy groaned a no. Kim laughed. "Sure?" He nodded against her neck. "Okay." They went back asleep.

10pm
The gang didn't get home until real late. They went out for dinner, and came back to find Kimberly and Tommy awake with Kimberly on top. They could tell they were both naked. She was rubbing his head laughing.
"Hey!"
"Hey." Tommy moved the sheet move from Kim's waist up more. "How's was the slopes?"
"Great, and shopping."
"You went shopping without me!"
"Well, you were here with loverboy."
"Don't call me loverboy," Tommy said.
"So, have you two had sex?"
"Not yet."
"Wow, surprise, surprise."
"Why not?" Aisha sat on the arm of the couch.
"Well, if we could go a week, why not more? Besides, we know what you did."
"What?"
"Changing all the clocks like that!" Aisha laughed.
"Totally Jase's idea!"
"HEY! Don't lie! I said they would figure it out."
"I didn't figure it out until the tv said 7 and our clock showed 8, then I noticed all said 8, naughty girl." Aisha shrugged.
"Can't say I didn't try. You two hungry or thirsty?"
"Nah, we ate." Kim moved to his side and pulled the sheet to cover herself more. She sat up and picked up her robe. She put it on and went to the bathroom. Jason went over to Tommy.
"So, tell the truth."
"About?"
"You too had sex."
"No, not yet."
"Seriously, bro."
"Seriously, Jase, we waited..are waiting."
"Wow."
"Besides, we have been thinking of what exactly to get as our award."
"Hey, I don't have any money," Rocky said.
"Me too," Aisha said.
"Kim was thinking about cooking, cleaning and slave work, but I want more."
"Don't get greedy," Aisha said. "We made a bet, but get too cocky about it."
"Oh, we are allowed," Kim said coming out in her green tee and pink stripe pajama bottoms. She placed her robe on the arm. "You all didn't think we could do it and made sure of it. I mean, we were practically hounded."
"So, a bet is a bet. We have to make sure you don't break it."
"Oh, so following us and planting traps was far?"
"Totally."
"Losers. Be prepared to hell." Kim got into bed.
In the middle of the night, Tommy held Kim by the waist as she straddled his waist, making love to him. She would bend down often to kiss him. They sat up together, kissing. When Tommy came inside her, he fell back to the bed. Kim's hands fell beside his head as she tried to catch her breath. She smiled and laid up against his neck.
"I love you," she whispered. He smiled.
"I love you too, Beautiful."

Next Day

They all decided to spend their last day at the slopes. Kimberly slid on her black jumpsuit and black boots. Tommy sat around watching everyone ski or snowboard. Kimberly stayed with him most of the time, only leaving to snowboard an hour. Tyler told them about this great resturante for them that night. Kimberly was getting ready, as Tommy tried to shave. He hated only having one good arm. And it was his left arm, but Tommy is right-handed. Kimberly applying eyeliner, sighed and took the razer from him.
"I'm not helpless."
"Yea, well, at your rate, you might die from lost of blood." She cleaned the cuts and finished his shave. Kimberly put on her fuchsia smocked babydoll with black lace-front flares and black platform boots. Kim helped Tommy with his clothes. They all headed to the resturante. The food was amazing and the dinner went on until very early in the morning. The group got home around 1 am, and went to bed. Kimberly stipped down Tommy before putting on her PJs from last night. They went to sleep.

Next day

They all slept in pretty late that morning. No one really waking up until nearly 10 am. They still had to all pack and slightly clean the place before leaving. Tommy was about to get into the driver seat of his truck.
"What are you doing?" Kimberly stood in her pink crop wrap, turquiose tunic tank, black tights and black combat boots. Her hands on her hips.
"Uh, driving."
"You have one arm." Kimberly slid on her brown coat as she threw away a bag of trash from the truck.
"I can drive."
"Move." She held her hand out for the keys. "Are you crazy?!"
"I can drive!"
"Boy, if you don't get in that passenger seat." Tommy dropped the keys in her hand. He walked over to the passenger side. Jason smiled getting into Tyler's car. Aisha took Jason's car to drive. Tommy closed his door after Kim did.
"You don't know the way!"
"Well, that's what you are for."
"You hate when I direct you."
"Because you tell me things right before I am suppose to do them! Give a little warning and we shall be fine."
"Fine, but I control the radio."
"Hells no!" She smiled and reached over to kiss him. "For a while." They kissed. Jason beeped the horn as they kissed for more than 5 minutes. Kimberly gave him the middle finger from the window before starting the car. She pulled out the driveway first followed by Jason and Aisha.

6:30 pm

Kimberly waved to Aisha as they passed the girls' complex before heading over to the boys' loft. The drive home took a little over 6 hours. Rocky got out the car and jumped into the truck with Kim and Tommy. Jason had to drop off Katherine before heading over to the loft. They unloaded all their things. Kimberly made Tommy sit down as she and the rest carried up the bags.
"We should order pizza, haven't had good pizza in a week!"
"You ate pizza like Thursday," Jason said.
"That was mountain pizza, not from Pete's Pizzeria."
"You mean, Greasy Pete." Kimberly got some water. Tommy pulled her to his lap. She kissed his cheek. They ate pizza and went to their rooms to retire for the evening. Tommy watched Kimberly searching for her PJ's. She found them and put them on.
"Why are you putting them on?"
"To sleep in."
"Why when I'm just gonna take them off?"
"Haha, we will see." She got into bed with him. 'Oh how she hated when he was right at time' Kim thought as Tommy and Kimberly laid naked from making love. She kissed his chest and went asleep. Tommy went to sleep smiling after saying 'I love you'. She whispered the same back in her sleep.


4 days later
10am

The loft was set-up for Halloween. Kimberly spent so much money on decorating. She didn't care, she loved dressing up places for Halloween. Though it was Thursday, and there was classes tomorrow, they were all heading out to party in the streets until early morning. Kimberly had the place so spooky, sometimes Rocky would scream out of the blue when something scary caught his eye. Aisha was doing Kim's hair that morning, after Kim added white and pink hair pieces to Aisha's hair. They didn't want to wait until later on to do all of this, so all they would have to do was make-up and put on their costumes. This year, all the boys were going as members of the Rat Pack. Kimberly was going to be princess Leia in the famous Star Wars bikini. Aisha going as a sexy fairy, by Jason's account. Katherine and Tanya as playboy bunnies. Adam was a little upset that Tracy couldn't go out due to her huge history exam in the morning. Kim had found an almost exact double of the bikini, much to Tommy's dislike. She modeled it for him, causing him to shake his head.
"Man, this hair is heavy," Kim said after Aisha finished adding the long brown hair with light blonde streaks. It reached past Kim's butt close to her thighs. "Man, this is why I don't grow my hair too long." Kim looked at herself in the mirror.
"Did you finish my fairy wing?"
"Yep, in Tommy's room. I added more shimmer and sparkles. I hope you like it."
"Thanks." Aisha went and got them along with Kim's silver ankle and leg wrap 4'' sandals. "I can't get too drunk tonight or I will bust my ass in these shoes."
"I told you to just wear flat like me."
"I gotta be taller than you for once." Kim laughed. She went to wake Tommy up. He groaned after she slapped his butt.
"Hey."
"Morning, come on." He yawned and stretched.
"Wow, your hair."
"Like it."
"Yea." Tommy showered, Kim dressed him. They went to their classes.

7pm
After a long dinner, they all went back to get dressed. Aisha brought her things over to the boys' loft to get ready. Kimberly sat at the island as Aisha braided her hair and ending with a golden ties. Aisha standing in her Daisy flower fairy costume and silver plats. Her new belly yellow stud showing. Kimberly finally got her to go get one. Jason came up behind Aisha and held her waist. He kissed her cheek, getting a giggle from her.
"Stop it! I have to finish this."
"Man, let's stay home and play."
"Eww! Don't need to hear this," Kim said standing. Aisha finished adding the slight crown on Kim's head. She grabbed her suit and went into Tommy's room. Tommy was trying to button his shirt. "Here, let me help you."
"I can dress myself."
"Fine." Kimberly opened her bag and started putting on her bikini costume. As she put on her arm cuffs and golden bracelets, Tommy groaned. She fixed her necklace plate.
"Help."
"What was that?"
"Kim!" She smiled and helped him. She did his tie and kissed him. "You have to find a wear to keep that skirt centered."
"Aisha was thinking glue, but it's fine. It won't show much." She lifted the back to show Tommy black v-string with rainbow butterfly-back. He groaned. She put on her brown leg wrap sandals. Bending down, not a good idea. Tommy came up behind her.
"God, you are so sexy." He held her by the waist and started kissing her neck. Kim moaned, her arms came around to his neck. She turned and wrapped her arms around his neck. They kissed and slowly fell to the bed. Kimberly, not one to waste time, sat up and undid Tommy's pants.
"So, I was thinking about putting my hair up instead of leaving it curly for the...oh, sooo sorry!" Aisha stood in the doorway and quickly slammed the door behind her. "You two gotta learn to lock your door!" Aisha shook her head. Kim and Tommy laughed.
"Later."
"Now."
"Later."
"Now!"
"Tommy." She made an angry face at him.
"Fine." He got up. She fixed his pants. She added her earrings and they went out. Tanya and Katherine arrived, along with Kat's date for the night, Joey. He was in her Freshman 101 class.
"Damn girl!" Rocky said. Tanya slapped him. "You can't seriously got out in that."
"I came here in it."
"Guys, tell her!" Tanya had her chest stuffed and cute bunny ears.
"What, I can't say anything, look at Kim."
"HEY! Our costumes are fine! I think it's cute," Kim said getting some punch.
"We should head to the party," Adam said adjusting his tie. A buzz at the door. Jason answered.
"Hello?"
"Hi, can I come up?"
"Tracy?" Adam hit the button. "Tracy."
"Yea." Adam hit the button to buzz her up. Tracy came up.
"Oh, so glad I didn't miss you guys." She stood in her Disney, Belle costume.
"I thought you had a test?"
"Well, I do, but I can stay out a little bit. I mean, it's college, we are suppose to have fun!" Adam laughed.
"Yay! Yo go girl," Kim said. They headed over the party zone on Main street. The club was rented out for Halloween.
"Oh wow!" Aisha said as they came inside. Kimberly held Tommy's arm as they walked around.

11pm
Tommy stood up against the wall, everyone was dancing. Tommy and Kimberly spent most the night sitting or standing around drinking a little. Kim was bored completely, only getting to dance a few times. Kim was leaning up against him. She turned and laid her head up against his chest.
"Wanna dance?"
"No." Her arms went around him.
"Why not?"
"I look funny dancing with one arm."
"No, you don't. Please."
"You can go dance."
"By myself?"
"I'll watch." She smiled.
"Fine." The beat changed to "Badaboom". Kimberly walked away. She started dancing. Tommy smiled as she moved around. The manager was looking down at the dance floor and saw Kimberly. He was judging girls dancing and whomever impressed him would win a gran tonight.
"Her." He pointed Kim out. Kimberly continued dancing. The host went to the stage. "You! Come!" Kimberly pointed to herself. "Yea! Come here!" Tommy pushed Kimberly to go up on stage. "Repeat the last beats." The DJ nodded and re-spun the song. Kimberly stood on stage. "A gran for you if you dance like you were." A camera was taping it. Tommy shouted to her. Kimberly stood looking down at the crowd cheering her on. Jenna walked away as Kim was the only picked to dance on stage after the host spent a while checking out Jenna. Kim smiled and started dancing, the crowd went wild. The boys all cheering her. Aisha stood on a chair screaming for Kim. "Damn, that was hot!!What do you all say!?!" The crowd yelled. "This is yours." Kim showed the money after she won it. Tommy stood at the stage to help her down. Kim's arms went around his neck as she got down. He hugged her back. She laughed. They kissed and danced a little.
They got home around 3 am. Tommy sat on his bed, as Kimberly started pulling off her costume. Her hair was the first to be pulled out. She did it slow and sexual to tease him. Tommy tugged at his suit and tie.
"Let's go shower." She pulled his arm around her. He would follow her naked body to the end of the world. Tommy and Kimberly stood in the shower, letting the water pound their sweaty bodies, as they made love. Tommy held Kim's hip as she arched her back against him. Kimberly allowed Tommy lay on her back, holding her, as they both caught their breaths. Kim loved how sometimes, Tommy would let her be the one to hold them up. Kim's hands on the shower wall. She reached back and rubbed his head. After showering, Kim put Tommy on some boxers and herself in a bluish yellow plaid shirt with pink shorts. They got into bed and went to sleep.

Next day
7:35am

Kimberly groaned and hit the alarm clock. Tommy barely moved off her chest.
"Come on, sweetie."
"Five more minutes, I promise." Kimberly slipped from beneath him.
"Tommy, move your ass! We only got 20 minutes before class." Tommy sighed and got up with her. They went to classes. Kimberly had to stop by the Art studio to hand in some works. She found a flyer about a contest to have your work displayed. She walked around the studio looking at paintings and sculptures all around the place. She held her briefcase to her chest and she came to the office where it said to submit your work.
"I shouldn't be here," she whispered. Aisha and Tommy pushed her to go and submit her work. Winner would get to design a piece to be displayed infront of the Art studio for all to see. A person in the office came out.
"Hi."
"Hi."
"Are you here to turn in your work?"
"Yea."
"Well, are you scared?"
"Sort of."
"Understandable. Lots of people are frighten when their work is going to be judged, but I assure you, criticism doesn't kill, only helps."
"Right." Kim smiled and pulled out her work. "I guess, you take this."
"Yep. Wow, these are nice. I'll make sure they get a perfect spot." She took the 3 works, one in color paint, and 2 in black-and-white.
"Thanks," Kim said walking away.
"Dear.." Kim turned around. "Good luck."
"Thanks." Kim smiled and walked out.

4pm
"Hey."
"Hey," Kim said opening the loft door. Tommy was doing some laundry. She closed the door.
"So, did you turn them in?"
"Yea."
"Good." They kissed. "I was thinking maybe us going out tonight."
"Where?"
"Nowhere special, just some dinner."
"Okay. Can I take a nap first?"
"You okay?"
"Just tired I guess."
"Go, sleep. I'll wake you." Kimberly went and laid down.

6:30pm
Tommy stood ironing Kim's jeans as she showered. He was already dressed and knew she would take a while after such a long nap. Kim came out in a short towel. She kissed Tommy's shoulder before wiping down her wet hair.
"So, where are we going?"
"Just some dinner."
"Tommy?!"
"You love surprises."
"Yes, I do." They kissed. She put on her lilac tee and jeans with black flip flops. Tommy took her O’Charleys's, Kim's favorite place on Fridays, because of their dinners. They ran into some people from Freshman 101. They called for Jason and the others to met them at another party. Somehow, Kimberly and Tommy got blasted drunk on 2 drinks. They sneaked out the party and ended up stumbling into the loft. They went to the roof and made love, falling asleep in each other's arms.
Next morning
Kimberly and Tommy woke up on the roof. The sun shining down on them, with a small blanket around them.
"What the hell? How did we get here?"
"I don't know."
"What was in those drunks!?" They got dressed and went into the loft.
"Good morning, bunnies."
"Excuse me?"
"Yea, we got complaints from neighbors. There are 5 messages left for you two."
"Great." Tommy hit the button. He groaned. "At least no cops came."
"For now," Jason said. Kimberly went to shower. She slipped on black tee, denim cut-up shorts and black sneakers. Kimberly laid around on Tommy's chest. They spent the day working on homework for once, no parties, no movies, no shopping. They were being studious for once, which was a nice change.

2 ½ weeks later
9 am

Tommy woke up in his old bedroom. He and Kimberly decided to go to his parent's house for Thanksgiving. Kim's mother was disappointed that her daughter was choosing to stay instead of visiting her. Tommy moved down to Kim's level and kissed her. Their PJ's on the ground around the bed, tossed in the moment of passion.
"Yucky, morning breath," she whispered moving away from him.
"Good morning to you too." Kim smiled and opened her eyes.
"Morning." She hugged him. "I'm hungry." Tommy laughed.
"What would my princess like?"
"Hmmm...oh, sausage gravy and biscuits."
"Okay. Anything else?"
"Umm, strawberry jam."
"Okay."
"But we can get it in an hour."
"What are we going to do in a hour?"
"This!" Kim straddled his waist. She slid him inside her. "And more." Tommy groaned.
"One of these days, you are going to kill me."
"But what a way to go!" She bent down and kissed him. Her hips moving slowly up and down on him.
"Torture, Beautiful. Absolute torture." Her mouth biting on his ear and neck.
"Payback, baby." Tommy had given Kim hickeys so big, even Kim's dance instructor comments a few days before they left for Thanksgiving break. It wasn't just the hickeys, but the placement. Right above both breasts. Her sport bra didn't cover them. Tommy sucked on her neck so hard, it hurt sometimes to move her neck and she knew she was going to have to pay him back and soon.
They got up and showered. Tommy's mother was putting away some groceries when she saw the couple coming downstairs, laughing and hugging each other.
"Good morning you two."
"Morning, Mom." Tommy kissed her on the cheek and got a kiss as well.
"Morning," Kim said holding Tommy's hand.
"I was wondering when you two would be waking up. How was your bedroom?"
"Just like I remember leaving it."
"A little changes, but I'm glad you like it."
"We are heading out for breakfast, want to come?"
"Your father left to get some work from the office."
"I thought Dad was off for break?"
"He is, but you know your father."
"We should be back soon." Kimberly waved, following Tommy. Kimberly drove them to MacDonalds. She hated driving in her flip flops. She took them off at the drive-thru window. Kimberly adjusted her teal tank and light purple shorts. They placed their order.
"So, I was thinking about maybe going to see Ernie for a little while."
"Sounds good." Tommy said pulling some money out.
"I heard he gave up the Juice Bar."
"He did to Lt. Stone for a while, when he opened the beach place. But then he gave it over to a lady, Adelle, I think. Called the Surf Spot now."
"Wow, I leave for just a few years and everything changes." Tommy smiled as she handed over the bags to him and pulled out.
They found Ernie's place and spent the afternoon with him. Kim loved hearing about the fun things that went on while she was in Florida.
"I am very happy you two came to visit. I don't see anyone much, since I got sick. Aisha, Trini sends me postcards with little letters here and there."
"Oh, Ernie, I promise, I'll get the gang to come visit, Christmas. It'll be like old times." He nodded.
"I am also very happy to see you two back together, the way you two were suppose to be."
"Me too," Tommy said. Kimberly hugged Tommy.
"Very happy." They kissed. They waved goodbye.

7pm

Tommy was helping Kimberly wash up the dirty dishes from dinner. They ordered out, because Mrs. Oliver was making a feast for Thanksgiving dinner. Kimberly was reaching in the sink to get the last few items, when she let out a scream.
"Ow!" Her bloody hand came out. Tommy caught her hand before she could bring it to her mouth.
"You don't want to do that." He grabbed a cloth and wrapped the cut on the inside of her hand. He applied pressure.
"What happened?"
"Nothing, Mom." Tommy lifted the cloth as more blood poured out.
"Oh, Kim, that's a nasty cut. I'll get the kit."
Kimberly sat at the table, Tommy on his knees infront of her, cleansing the cut.
"I'm fine, you know."
"I know." He applied cream, and wrapped it in bandage.
"It's not that bad."
"Kim, I know." She lifted his chin.
"I know you." He reached up and kissed.
"I hate it when you get hurt."
"Me too." Tommy was nearly healed from his shoulder injury, partially due to his former ranger powers. He could raise his arm more with each passing week. Tommy found it a nonsense to use the sling, though Kim would always make him. Tommy took up and closed the kit. "Let's go to bed."
"I like that." She laughed. Tommy threw her over his good shoulder.
"HEY!" He slapped her butt. Mrs. Oliver came into the kitchen and laughed. Tommy was heading up the back steps.
"Good night, MOM!"
"Night you two!"
"Night, Mrs. Oliver."
"Watch your head.." Kim bumped her head.
"OW!"
"Sorry."
"You know this caveman, it's really old!"
"You love it, Aisha told me!"
"That little..."
"Watch it." Tommy dropped her to his bed after kicking his door shut. Kimberly picked up her black satin sleep shirt from the ground. She stripped down to nothing and put it on, not buttoning it, as Tommy pulled off his shirt and pants. Kim locked the door and stood against the door.
"Don't." Tommy went to slid his boxers off.
"Why?"
"Because I said so." She pushed him to the bed. Kimberly bent down and kissed his stomach. Tommy groaned. Her lips tickled his stomach and around his boxer opening. She blew inside the opening, making Tommy shiver. Mrs. Oliver about to head into her bedroom, when she heard a loud gasp followed by a moan. She slowly sneaked to the door and pressed her ear against it. The bed creaking, along with moans and slapping of skin. Kim's cries of passion and love affirmed, what Mrs. Oliver already knew. Anyone spending a few hours with them could tell, they were in love and they were going to be together for a very long time. Mrs. Oliver smiled and shook her head. 'My baby is all grown-up now' she thought going toward her room. 'Am I ready to be a grandmother?'

7 am
Tommy's mother woke up to hear laughing and music. She came downstairs and into the kitchen . Kimberly was chopping vegetables as Tommy washed the huge turkey. Kimberly was practicing some dance moves as she chopped. Tommy had the turkey dancing in the sink.
"What is going on here?"
"MOM! Happy Thanksgiving!"
"Happy Thanksgiving!"
"Happy Thanksgiving to you two as well!" Mrs. Oliver made a list of things needing to be down. Tommy handled cleaning the house and setting up the dining area, as Kimberly continued to help in the kitchen.

An hour later
Tommy had cleared out the living room and cleaned it to welcome the guest. He tackled the dining room, dusting, which he hated.
"Where's Mr. Oliver?"
"Asleep. I usually let him until like 9 or 10 then he really has to work on cleaning up and no game until the table is set and the drinks are cooling." Kim laughed. Kimberly loved to watch her mother cook as a little girl. Though she never really got that cooking gene, she still loved to watch. Kim remembered all the times she would come over and eat with dinner with the Olivers, they always welcomed her into the family. She loved their warm home at a time, when she was losing her parents to divorce. Mrs. Oliver knew that, she made sure that Kimberly felt like a close daughter to her, Kim would come over just to talk to her when Tommy was hanging out with the boys. Ms. Oliver never wanted to replace Kim's mother, but at that time, Kim felt besides Tommy, she was her other lifeline that got her through that part of her life.
"So, are you going to do that yams dish?"
"I don't know, it was something my Dad did like every year. My mother hated how he would dictate and control the kitchen for that brief moment, but...I'm no chef. I would just ruin it."
"You can try. Tommy told me all about it when he said you were coming. I got some yams, marshmallows, cinnamon, pineapples, go on, I can help too."
"What if I screw up?"
"We all mess up, Kimberly." Mrs. Oliver rubbed the back of Kim's head. "But it is those who chose to keep trying, that really make a difference. Now, you can win 4 gold medals at the Olympics, graduated from high school in a less than 4 years, make straight A's in college, but won't try a yams dish?"
"Silly, huh?"
"Yea."
"Okay, I'll do it."
"That's my girl." Tommy came down from the attic carrying some table clothes.
"Which one, Mom?"
"Uh, try each one on the table, then I will decide."
"There are like 10 here!"
"Well, get to working." Kim laughed, but stopped at Tommy's face.
"I'll help." Kim closed the last big bowl with cut-up fruits. She placed it in the fridge and went to help Tommy.

3pm
Kimberly stood in Tommy's mirror looking over herself. Dressed in fuchsia lacey dress and black H-band sandals, she was putting in the new earrings Tommy brought her. She woke up from a light nap after helping Mrs. Oliver and found the case. Diamond drop earrings, very expense. But Tommy wasn't the only one to give out gifts. Kim handed him a Lorenz watch as he was getting some boxers.
"What is this?"
"Your gift." He opened it and smiled. Tommy had broke his watch the night on the roof, though neither could figure out or remember how.
"Wow, thank you." They kissed. Tommy fixed the earring straighter. They finished getting dressed. Kim slid on the tennis bracelet before she slid on her black crop hoodie. Tommy stopped her as she went to the door. "You are still missing one thing." She looked at him. Tommy fixed the top of her hoodie and caressed around her neck. He undid her blue sapphire cross and pulled it off. Kim felt something drop around her neck. Tommy did the clasp to the 3-stone diamond pennant drop necklace. Kim touched it and went to the mirror.
"Oh my god!" She smiled at it on her. "Why?"
"Because I love you."
"I love you too." They kissed. The doorbell rung. Tommy pulled away from Kim's lips, they were on his bed. His hand slid from her leg beneath her dress, when he heard his mother yell.
"Tommy! Kimberly!"
"Coming!"
"Later." He nodded and helped her up. Tommy and Kimberly fixed her each, then kissed once more before heading down.

4pm
Guest arrived pretty early. Kim sat around listening to all the stories, Tommy's family was sharing. She laughed as Tommy's uncle demonstrated how he put out a fire when he and his wife tried cooking one year. Tommy sat beside her holding her hand. Tommy and Kimberly were very happy Ernie decided to come by for dinner with his family. Mrs. Oliver was bringing out more wine when the phone rung. She answered it.
"Kimberly, it's your mother." Kim excused herself.
"Hey, Mom."
^ "Happy Thanksgiving." ^
"You too, Mom. What's up.... Excuse me?"
^ "Explain to me why you lied to me?" ^Kimberly held the phone by her hand when Tommy came over.
"Mom wants to start on dinner in like 20 minutes."
"Okay. Mom, I'm sorry, but right now it not a good time."
^"Make it."^ Kim sighed. Tommy watched Kimberly turn her back to him as she started talking softly. He left her alone to talk. Kimberly came out a while after that. Tommy took her hand and led her to a seat besides him.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." He cupped her face.
"Liar, talk to me."
"After this, I promise." They kissed. He opened the chair for her. Kim smiled and pulled her napkin out.
"Now we can truly begin," Mr. Oliver said carrying out the turkey. Everyone oowed and ahhed at the nearly 30 pounder. Tommy and everyone laughed when his little cousin yelled out.
"It's bigger than me!"
"Almost," his mother said putting the napkin around him.

9pm
The last guests were leaving, as Kimberly and Tommy stood loading dishes into the dishwasher.
"So, what's going on?"
"My mother doesn't understand, why I'm not on the team."
"UCLA team?"
"Yea," Kim said handing him another plate.
"The gymnast team?"
"Appartently my mother called the coach and found out I never joined the squad."
"Why does that matter now?"
"Ummm..probably because I told my mother the only reason why I decided on not going to Florida or Georgia, was because I wanted to be a Bruin."
"And?"
"I'm a Bruin, but not a gymnastic Bruin. She's mad!"
"Hence, why does it matter?"
"I lied, Tommy. I told her, I was joining the team. I told her I got the free tuiton, because I was going to be on the team."
"But you're not on the team. You got in because of your academic grades."
"I know. I refused the gymnastic scholarship. But I never told her that."
"Oh."
"Yea."
"And?"
"She's a wee bit mad at that." Tommy laughed as he rinished another wine glass
"What did you not tell her?"
"I didn't want to be on the team, and I couldn't find the words to tell her that."
"How did she take that?"
"She wants me to re-think that."
"But if you don't want to be on the team, why should you re-think anything?"
"She's paying for my rent and my car, Tommy. She could..."
"Then stay with me, forget her. You don't want to be on the team, you shouldn't have to be."
"At first, I mean, I miss it. I haven't done real competitions in a over year and my drive is not there anymore since the Olympics."
"You have 4 gold medals, you don't have to have a drive anymore! You got what you always dreamed of, why should gymnastic in college be so important?"
"It's not, thats why I didn't take the scholarship, because I didn't want it."
"So, what's going to happen?"
"I'll call her in a few days with my decision."
"Which is?"
"I don't know. Honestly, I don't know. I never thought I would have the chance to try since I refused them this summer, but my mother talked to the coach, she says she still would like to still see me."
"You might still have a chance?"
"Yea."
"But the season started, you haven't been training or..."
"I know, I haven't keep in gymnastic shape, but I could do it. Not that I would, but.." Kim said quickly.
"You can think about it." Tommy turned on the dishwasher. He took her hands. "You should think about it, Kim. I know you can do it if you wanted to."
"That's just it, do I really want to?It will take a lot of time and more aches and pains, that I really don't think I want to go through all over again."
"I'll be there to help you with anything."
"I know." She hugged him. "That's one of the reasons I love you so much." They kissed.
"Seriously, you should think about it."
"I will, I'll think about it." They kissed again. "I love you."
"I love you too, Beautiful."

Teaser: "At least this is only one day son, trying 364 days of this."
"I would kill myself." Mr. Oliver laughed.
"Try marriage." Mrs. Oliver dragged her shopping cart in another direction.
"Marriage, that would nice," Tommy whispered.


Next day
6 am

Tommy woke up to 115 pounds of his girlfriend straddling his waist, bouncing and yelling.
"Tommy? TOMMY! Come on, you promised me!" Tommy groaned. "Today is the greatest day in the world. Day after Thanksgiving is when Christmas shopping starts, all the sales! We need a head start! TOMMY!" He opened his eyes as she shook him.
"I know I know! I'm up!" She smiled as Tommy sat up. "What time is it?"
"Just 6, stores are already opened! Come on!" Kim hopped off him and went into the bathroom.
"The things I do for that woman," he muttered.
"TOMMY!"
"Coming," Tommy said standing up stretching. He scratched his stomach and went into the bathroom. With Kimberly bending over to fix the water on the shower, Tommy smiled. He came up behind her and held her waist. He slid the string bikini down.
"We don't have time for that!"
"You said that last night."
"And if we had, you would be more tired now! Get your ass in that stall and wash my back, only." She looked at him sternly. Tommy hung his head and pushed his boxers aside and stepped in. "Good boy," she said patting his head.
"I am not your doggy."
"Oh, a dog! I would love a..."
"No."
"Meanie!" He lifted her into the tub and closed the door. She kissed him.
"Still no." She slapped his chest and reached for the bodywash. There was always something about water and those two. A shower, Kimberly only wanted taking 10-15 minutes turned into 45. Tommy was definately a bad boy.

7:30am

Tommy sat on his bed, watching Kimberly pull out clothes after clothes. CD on, one of her favorite Latin artist, Cristian Castro, in the background.
"It's a mall!"
"But I must be comfortable and able to try on things!"
"You have been in that damn robe for over 30 minutes!"
"Hush! Perfection takes a little while." She put on her brown thongs. "Let's see." She tossed a dress aside, then jeans and tops. "I look fat in those." Tommy shook his head. "And these!" She threw some shorts aside. Kim slid on a red lacey Brazilian panties underneath her robe, getting a smile from Tommy as she flashed him.
"If I pick something out will that help?"
"Maybe. What do you think?"
"Uh, those," Tommy said pulling some jeans and a top to show her.
"No. Jeans, to have to deal with trying on clothes!"
"It's not bad!"
"Who is the expert shopper here?!"
"Then try some shorts or a skirt! Kim, come on! You wake me at 6 in the morning."
"Fine! Grumpy much?" She slipped on a tank dress and sighed, pulling it off immediately. Kimberly slid on black bra and put on her white with pink stripes polo tee. Tommy tossed her a denim cargo mini. She nodded and slipped it on. "See, you can be helpful!" She kissed him and ran the blow dryer a few minutes before grabbing her purse and CD travelling case. Tommy sighed.
"Gonna be a long day."
"What was that?"
"I love you." She smiled and kissed him.
"I love you too. And I heard you." She walked out taking his keys.

11am

The mall was filled with hundreds of people. Mrs. Oliver and Kimberly dragged their significant others around the mall. Tommy groaned as he had to push the enormous shopping cart along side his father.
"Is it always going to be like that?"
"Get use to it, son, they don't get better with age."
"I heard that! Come, we haven't even hit the second, third or fourth floor!"
"Yea, come on, Tommy! We have to pick out a puppy!"
"A puppy?" Kim winked at Mrs. Oliver.
"Kim, we..." She pulled the end of the cart with her.
"At least this is only one day son, trying 364 days of this."
"I would kill myself." Mr. Oliver laughed.
"Try marriage." Mrs. Oliver dragged her shopping cart in another direction from Kimberly and Tommy.
"Marriage, that would nice," Tommy whispered. Kimberly was scratching off places on the mall map.
"What was that, Tommy?"
"Nothing, hey, can we stop for a second, I want to check the map too."
"You do?"
"Yea, I mean, we are here to shop and I need to get some things too."
"Okay." They found a seat. Tommy allowed Kim to his lap. They went over the map together. Kimberly smiled as Tommy pointed out places to go as well.
"What?"
"Nothing." She looked back to the map. Tommy kissed her neck. They went back to shopping


5pm

Tommy's parents found Tommy waiting outside a pet store as Kimberly was carrying around a 2 week old Huskey and 1 week old Toyfox Terrier. She was near the door holding them, Tommy had to stay outside to watch the shopping cart.
"Awww, he's adorable."
"It's a she," Kim said. She held the Huskey up. "Terrier is a boy."
"I like the chocolate lab better," Tommy said. They had been in the pet store nearly an hour each, picking puppies out to hold and fall in love with.
"But these beautiful blue eyes." Kim kissed her, then the terrier.
"You said the same about the Maltese with black eyes."
"Well, it's true, look into these eyes." Tommy stepped closer and smiled.
"She is cute."
"I did like the french bulldog."
"And the white terrier, and the pug, and the poodle, come on, if we are going to get one, we need to decide this soon."
"We'll be a few stores down, okay. You two take your time in picking." Kim nodded as Tommy's parents left them to decided.
"We are getting one?"
"Yea. One."
"But..what about school and having no time?"
"We can make time." She kissed him.
"I love you."
"You just love how I always cave to you."
"Not always. Sometimes you are stubborn."
"Me, and you are just.."
"Not." They kissed again. "I like the Huskey, but it's your apartment too, so, what do you want?"
"No, this is your dog. You pick."
"I thought it was ours."
"Kim, you wanted a puppy, pick one."
"I can't. Help me."
"Huskey, she's nice."
"Huskey?" Kim looked back at the many pens, her eyes on the bulldog.
"You want the pug?"
"Maybe."
"Get him. I think he was a little crazy, but.."
"I like the terrier too."
"We can't have 2 dogs. "
"Why not?"
"Because!"
"Because why?"
"Kim, no!"
"Terrier and Bulldog will make a great combo."
"Kim, what did I just say?!"
"Please." She pouted. "They are both boys and boys are so much better than girls."
"They are like 1000 a piece."
"I know."
"A 1000, Kim."
"Can you say no to this face?" Tommy sighed. An assistance came over.
"So, have you two decided?" Kim bit her lip.
"We'll take the terrier and bulldog, males."
"Great, let me get you set up!" Kim smiled as the worker took the puppies from Kim and went to get the bulldog. Kim hopped out and kissed him.
"This is your Christmas present, I hope you realize."
"Thank you." They hugged. "Where are we going to fit 2 puppies?"
"The real question is, what are the others going to say when we bring home 2 puppies?" Kim groaned. "Yea, I would like it if you could handle that." She smiled as the assistance held up the terrier and french bulldog indicating those were the two, they wanted. Kim wrapped her arms around Tommy's waist. She looked up at him. They kissed. Kim nodded to the worker. Assistance nodded and went to work on the paperwork.

Next day

Tommy and Kimberly spent the entire morning naming their 2 new puppies.
"I like Max or Sammie," Tommy said playing a little mean with the bulldog. He was going to toughen them up, not matter what Kim said.
"Fido," Kim said then laughed.
"Fatso." He lifted the bulldog after it found the ball and came back.
"He is not fat!" They were downstairs in the living room. Tommy's mother was fixing breakfast. Last night, they packed up all their up leaving one outfit out for tonight's dinner with Ernie. They would be heading back to UCLA that night. Classes started up again Monday. Kimberly adjusted her burgundy halter as she looked through a small dog name book she brought.
"Maybe, Napoleoan."
"No."
""Ninja."
"No."
"Kermit. Kurt."
"No."
"Fine! You find one." Kim handed over the book and stood up. "Come, fifi!" Kim lifted the terrier and fixed her jeans as she stood.
"Fifi?" Tommy opened the book and went down the list. "Who would name their dog, Babyface?"
"People who like Babyface." Tommy smiled.
"Bailey."
"That's a girl name."
"Blaze."
"No."
"Boogie-woogie." They both laughed. Kim slipped into her black sneakers as the bulldog brought back the ball, Tommy tossed it again. "Boozer."
"K.O."
"No. Clyde."
"Napoleoan."
"Fine, Napoleoan for the bulldog! But I name the terrier, no arguement!"
"Deal." She tugged the dog rope from the terrier.
"He looks like a Kujo."
"That devil dog from that movie!"
"Yea, Kujo." Kim looked at him.
"Fine!" Tommy turned the page more. After 10 minutes, they agreed on Dash.
"Dash and Napoleoan, nice." Kim filled out the dog book, she brought. Tommy couldn't believe how much money they spent in just one day. Tommy's parents came in with breakfast. More turkey and eggs. Kimberly kissed the puppies as she ate.
"So, who is Dash? Who is Napoleoan?" Tommy held up the bulldog.
"Napoleoan."
"Dash," Kim said patting the terrier in her lap.
"Too cute. I hope you two are ready, because they will be like your children until they die," Mrs. Oliver said putting down some juice.
"I'm soo ready," Kim said. She kissed Tommy.

5pm

Tommy was ironing his shirt and pants, as Kimberly was doing her make-up. The puppies wiped out on the bed. Tommy ran them around the house and park all afternoon. Kim slid on her black ankle strap sandals. She pulled out her purple lacey floral stappy dress.
"Think this is too dressy?"
"No." She plugged the curler in finally, after she pulled the steam rollers down. Tommy was closing his shirt as Kim stood in her dress and shoes.
"I beat you."
"Only because I wasn't rushing."
"Whatever." She retouched her curls. "Let's go." Kim picked up the puppies. She brought them to Mrs. Oliver. "See you in a few hours."
"Bye, you two. Have fun."

8pm

Kimberly waved to Ernie as they left the restuarante. It was nice cozy dinner, remember the good old days.
"That was sweet."
"Yea, that's Ernie."
"I always loved Ernie. I never understood how he didn't know we were Power Rangers."
"Yea, that's amazing. I mean, Bulk and Skull never figured it out too."
"I always wondered what happened to them."
"I believe they were working with some sciencist."
"What?"
"I know." Tommy pulled up into his driveway. Tommy's parents waiting on them.
"Here are your babies." Kim smiled and took them. "Drive safely, son."
"Thanks for a wonderful Thanksgiving, Mrs. Oliver." Kim hugged her.
"No problem. You are welcome anytime."
Tommy kissed and hugged his mother last, after his father was helping put the crates into backseat. Kim got into the truck.
"Thanks Mom. I love you."
"I love you too, son. Take care. I expect perfect A's." Tommy laughed. They hugged again. Tommy got into the truck. Mrs. Oliver kissed her son once before hitting the truck as Tommy started it. Mr. Oliver put his arms around his wife.
"Off again."
"Yea, but this time he has her."
"Think we need to start planning a wedding for those two?"
"Yea. I think that's going to a wonderful wedding." Tommy honked his horn as he turned out the driveway. His parents waved.

11pm

"Hello!" Kim yelled opened the door, the puppies and a small bag in her hands. "Anybody home!" No answer. Tommy came carrying the 2 dog carriers and a few bags. Kim put the puppies down and let them run around as she went to get a few more bags. Kimberly made an area around the exit to the roof for the dogs with their beds and bowls. She hung up the 2 chains where the keys and coats go.
"I thought Jase was coming back tonight?"
"I think he said Sunday."
"So, the whole place to ourselves for the night and morning." Kim shook her head.
"We have to unpack and get the puppies settled, first."
"Awww!" Tommy moaned. The puppies barked. "Don't you start." Kim laughed. Tommy and Kimberly fell to the bed a few hours. They made a small area in his room for the puppies to sleep as well. He didn't understand why Kim brought 3 dog beds until now. With the puppies outside, sleeping, they could be alone. Kimberly laid beneath Tommy kissing him. She worked on his pant as his hands unzipped her dress. Just as Kim had a handful of his boxers, a yell from outside stopped them.
"WHO BROUGHT 2 PUPPIES HOME?!!" The couple groaned and covered their heads with the covers. "TOMMY! KIMBERLY! I KNOW YOU TWO ARE HOME!" Jason pounded on the door. "OPEN THIS DOOR NOW!" Aisha was playing with the puppies, as her boyfriend tried to get the door to Tommy's room open.

3 days later
7:30 am

Kimberly sat at the island eating cereal, Tommy was forced this rainy morning to take the puppies.
"You know puppies take a lot of time and patience. You have to house train them, feed them, walk them, bathe them..." Kimberly stared off as Jason went through his daily speech of 'Why roommates shouldn't get dogs'.
"Jason! Hush! We have Dash and Napoleon, okay. They will be staying here, okay. I am not going to be waking up every day to hear you say this again and again. We will keep the apartment clean, I promise."
"And the barking!?!"
"Barking?"
"In the middle of the night, they are puppies."
"I know, we'll keep them in our room if they start barking, don't worry. I don't complain about your noise!"
"MY NOISE!"
"You and Aisha."
"Hey! I heard that!" Aisha said coming down the steps. She was in one of Jason's shirts after showering. "We never complained about you and Tommy!"
"Tommy and I are discrete."
"Riiight." Aisha shook her head. "Oh oh oh, Tommy, yes, yes, yes, right there, oh, yes, oh, oh! YES! TOMMY!" She faked an orgasm.
"I don't sound like that."
"Yea, you do," Tommy said closing the door as the pups ran after he put them down.
"Like you are any better, you groan so freaking loud.
"Not to mention that constant thupping and slapping," Jason added.
"Constant slapping, like you two are beating each other." Tommy smiled.
"Whatever."
"I don't want to live with 2 puppies!"
"Oh, I love the doggies," Aisha said picking up one. "I tried to get mister to get me one over break, but he refused."
"Yea, well, if Tommy wasn't so wound around Kim's pinkie, he would have stuck with his balls and not caved in!"
"Excuse me?"
"Whatever." Jason put his mug in the sink and went upstairs to his room.
"He's just mad that you two got puppies and he couldn't," Aisha said putting the terrier down. "Don't worry, I'll fix him."
"Thanks," Kim said. She was already dressed, yellow raglan tee, pink 'Rebel' sweatpants, and white/pink Converse hi-tops. Tommy went to get dressed. Aisha waited until Tommy lifted.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure," Kim said.
"What type of birth control do you use with Tommy?"
"Uh, the Yasmin, why?"
"No reason."
"Aisha.."
"No, it's just, I think I'm ready with Jason you know, but I'm..." Kim smiled.
"Really?!"
"Yea, I'm just a little afraid, I don't anything about condoms and birth pill, I would be lost if I had to do this."
"I hear you. You know, for the first few times, Tommy and I never used anything. Only until we got to college, did I go on the pill. We have one scare back in July, but I wasn't pregnant and the nurse gave me brochures on different types of birth control."
"Is it hard to remember?"
"Not really, I don't have Tommy syndrone. Want me to help you pick out one?"
"Please, I'm so clueless about sex and crap.."
"Jason is a good guy, trust me, when you go on the pill, life is so much simplier."
"Thanks girl."
"No problem. We can go after our chem lab, ok?"
"Yea."

After finishing classes on Tuesday, Tommy was sent over to the girls' suite to search for Kim's lucky spankey, she wore beneath when she was going out for a special spot. Katherine came out her room and found Tommy shoving the puppies away as he searched Kim's room.
"What are you doing here?"
"OH! God, Katherine, don't scare me like that!"
"Who's dogs are these?" Kat picked up the bulldog.
"Mine."
"They are cute."
"They are Kim's and mine, we brough them over break. Kim picked them out."
"Oh," Katherine put it down.
"Dash and Napoleon." Tommy went back under Kim's former bed. "I swear that girl." Tommy sighed.
"What are you looking for?"
"Kim's lucky spankey."
"Spankey?"
"Yea, she's going to talk to the coach and set up a training workout, but she swears she left it here. I have searched this room for 20 minutes."
"Can I ask you something?"
"Okay."
"What is it about her that makes her the most important thing to you?" Tommy sat there.
"You don't want to know that, Katherine."
"Okay, fine. What is it about me that made me the least important thing?"
"It wasn't about you or Kim. I love Kimberly. I always have, god, I think, I know, she was the one from the first moment I kissed her, I told her 'I love her'. I look in her eyes and I know the truth. We see into each other's souls. Ninjor told me after we went on our Quest, that the crane and falcon flies as one, our love connects us forever."
"So, it wasn't something I did or was?"
"No. You weren't the reason, don't blame yourself, okay. It's all my fault. I never should have led you to believe that I could love you like that."
"I'll help you."
"Thanks."

6pm

Aisha was going over the book with her new birth control pills when Tommy came back from picking up the pizza and movies. She was rubbing the terrier's stomach on the table. Kimberly in his room finishing up her chem write-up to turn in tomorrow morning.
"Hey." Tommy put the pizza boxes on the counter. "Whatcha got there?"
"The pill."
"Oh. Wow, I didn't know..."
"We're not, yet." Tommy smiled. Rocky came over and took like 5 slices and went to his room to work on his homework in quiet.
"Pizza and movies are here."
"I'll be right there." Tommy came and sat on the bed.
"What's wrong, Beautiful?"
"Nothing." She wrote the last solutions and closed her lab book. "My mother called."
"Why do you let her bring you down?"
"I don't mean to, she was just..."
"Tell her, this is your decison! You shouldn't have to please the likes of her!"
"She's my mother, Tommy!"
"So, she calls just to make you upset."
"She just want me to be happy!"
"Gymnastic is not the only thing in your life that makes your happy!"
"It was!" Kim rubbed her neck. "Please, I don't want another headache." She got up and walked out, the bulldog behind her. Kimberly grabbed some pizza and looked at the movies. Tommy handed her a plate. They kissed. Jason came downstairs from a shower after the gym. He lifted the white case, as Aisha continued reading.
"The pill?"
"Yea, Kim took me today to figure which ones I wanted."
"Why?"
"Because I need them."
"Once again, why?"
"I want to be careful."
"It's a waste of money, Aisha."
"Okay."
"I'm just saying, condoms are much more cheaper and do the same job."
"It's not a waste of money, unless you want little Jases running around," Kim said smiling.
"I didn't ask for your opinion."
"Wow. Harsh, Jase."
"Why would you push her to do this?!"
"Hey, don't talk to her like that," Tommy said.
"I didn't push her! She came to me!"
"Look, Aisha and I aren't like you and spike, okay. We don't have to have sex every minute of everyday."
"Excuse me," Kimberly got up and went into the room.
"You were way out of line, bro. Don't ever do it again." Tommy closed the door behind him.
"What's your problem?!"
"I don't want my girlfriend being pressured into birth control!"
"I wasn't! I asked her! I thought I was ready...after seeing you act like this...there is no way!" Aisha grabbed her books and stormed out. Jason sighed and put his hands on the counter.
"Shit."
