Thomas Oliver held his hands in his pocket, keeping behind the others. He looked around and noticed just how enormous the gymnasium was. No one was training since the Pan Globals had just finished up a week past which made the gym seem larger. This was a rare occasion. Normally the gym was closed off to everyone except immediate family but today the gymnasts could invite their friends and other family members to help them pack up or just visit since some were staying in preparation for a smaller tournament. It was supposed to be a reward since their team took home the most medals.
No matter how hard he tried to tell himself this trip wouldn't affect him, he was feeling the opposite. He hated the gym. He hated Florida. It took the one person he truly loved and cared about and made her betray him. He knew it was silly since it was him who encouraged her to go but he couldn't help feeling it.
They approached the room.
"Shit!"
Earlier
"Oh my god! I'm so nervous! Tommy's coming!" Kim exclaimed in a frantic voice, plopping down on the bed half dressed.
"So are the others," Lara Daniels added, trying to make Kim feel better.
"That's of no consolation. I mean what happened in Angel Grove was so awkward and them coming here will be even more awkward. I can't run away. Mainly due to their taking me back to Angel Grove and my not returning to Florida; I wouldn't have anywhere to run."
The taller brunet walked over to Kim. "Here," she said handing Kim a coral colored bra.
"How'd that get over there? My stuff is over here. Oh well." Kim mused, putting it in her bag.
Lara shrugged and turned to the mirror to apply rose colored lipstick.
"Listen Kim, you're not in love with this guy anymore so what does it matter? I mean come on it's not like he's gonna make a scene with your other friends here. From what I've heard he's a pretty decent guy. Even I would date him."
Kim rolled her eyes. "Lara it's not like that. I never said I didn't love him."
"-But you didn't ever say you did. That letter was harsh even for me."
Kim sighed beginning to button her blouse. "I know. The thing is I didn't mean for the letter to come out that way. It was only after I had sent it that I realized how stupid I was. And seeing him with Kat didn't make me feel any better."
Turning from the mirror, Lara walked over and kissed Kim flat on the lips.
Stunned, Kim stared at Lara, eyes wide, unable to make out what was going on. She holds her hands up, flapping them frantically after the kiss begins to linger.
"Knock, knock- Sis are you in there?" Jason called out, as the door knob turns.
Kim tried desperately to push Lara away from her but failed to in time for all her friends to see her and Lara kissing.
"Shit!"
Present
Kim finally succeeds in pushing Lara away and stares at them.
Oh my god what just happened? Is this real? No, it's a dream!
"Did you guys just see that?" She asks, feeling herself begin to shake.
"You tongue wrestling with another girl? Yeah," Rocky replies idiotically yet somewhat intrigued.
She looks down and returns to her stuff, throwing everything into her case.
"Kim, you wanna tell us something?" Jason asks weirded out.
"No-" she says avoiding his gaze.
Damn, I have to get out of here.
"Kim, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to-" Lara says, trying to apologize.
She shakes her head, her face becoming flushed as tears form.
"Just leave."
"Kim?"
Receiving no answer from Kim, Lara runs out, as Kim stands there staring at the ground.
"Kim are you okay?" Kat asks, moving in.
Kim steps back, tears falling.
I bet you're just loving this.
"Just go away."
Seeing the rose colored smudge on her lips in the mirror across the room, she touches them, horrified and wipes it quickly away with the end of her sleeves.
She kissed me?
"Kim-"
"Get the hell away," she says numbly, cutting Billy off.
Tommy walks in with confusion plastered on his handsome face, staring at Kim.
"Kim?"
She turns to Jason, embarrassed.
"I want to go home."
