Chapter Two: Feels
The four of them woke up the next morning still on the couch. Tommy was the first wake up. He smiled to himself when he realized that Lil was leaning on his shoulder. He looked over at Kimi who had her legs in his lap and her head was in Phil's. He wanted to get up but he didn't want to wake either of the girls.
He slowly moved Kimi's legs and managed to move Lil without waking her. He walked into their kitchen to find some food. He turned around to walk out but was stopped by someone "Shit! Lil you scared me" he had his hand on his chest before going and sitting at the table.
"It''s what you get for waking me." she walked to the fridge and poured herself a glass of milk and sat at the table across from Tommy. "If you didn't want to be woken you shouldn't have fallen asleep on me" he smirked causing Lil to roll her eyes "Have I ever told you that you're full of yourself?"
"You have a couple of times." he reached across the table and took her glass of milk taking a gulp from it. He gave it back to her and she laughed taking a sip and pouring the rest out. Tommy stood up and walked over to her, putting his face close to hers.
He leaned down like he was going to kiss her but stopped right before their lips met "You have some milk on your face" he smirked and and made his way to the living room. Lil let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. She grabbed a napkin and wiped her mouth before walking to the living room. She walked in and saw Phil slowly waking up "Wake up, Kimi! We have to get ready!" Kimi started to stir and looked at Lil and stretched. "I'm coming" she mumbled.
Tommy turned to Lil "How about we make a bet?" Lil put her hands on her hips and looked at him "I'm listening" he grabbed her arm and took her to the kitchen so Phil and Kimi couldn't hear.
"If you guys win you have to give me a chance. Just one date" Lil nodded and Tommy waited to hear what she'd want "And if we don't you have to stop being such a flirt and stay faithful to Kimi" she held her hand out and waited for him to take it "It's a bet"
The four of them showed up at the gym and Kimi and Lil made their way to their designated spot. Tommy and Phil made their way to a spot in the stands to get ready for a long day.
"Don't you wish you were single at times like this? You can't even look at other girls" Phil said with a smile and Tommy shook his head and then started looking around for Kimi and Lil. A few seconds later Phil elbowed Tommy in the side and pointed at a girl "Isn't that Rachel?"
"As in my ex, Rachel?" he looked at the girl Phil was pointing to and it was that very Rachel. Tommy made a face "I didn't know she was a cheerleader"
"But then again you haven't talked to her since fifth grade" Tommy nodded and finally looked away from Rachel and continued looking for Kimi and Lil.
"What was the bet you and Lil made?" Phil asked looking at Tommy, curious. Tommy just shrugged and put his hands in his pockets "You'll have to wait and find out" Tommy smiled and turned his attention back to the competition going on.
The two boys cheered for Lil and Kimi when it was their turn. Once done they made their way out of the stands to find them before the awards "How do you guys think we did?" Lil asked with a smile.
"Winners, of course" Tommy smiled at her and was about to put his arm around Kimi when a voice stopped him.
"Tommy? Tommy Pickles? Is that you?" he turned around to see Rachel smiling and walking over to them. Tommy's smile fell and Phil, Lil and Kimi looked at him wondering how he was going to act.
Rachel Alcroft, Tommy's first official girlfriend. The girl that broke his heart in the fifth grade was coming over to talk to him "Rachel?" he moved away from Kimi and walked towards her. Kimi gave Lil a worried look. They all knew that he never forgot about her. He faked being upset over her for a few days, but they all knew he was actually hurting.
Sure he's dated plenty of girls since fifth grade, but seeing and hearing her voice brought back memories for him and it scared Kimi.
"Hey Tommy, what are you doing at a cheer competition?"
He smiled at her and looked over at Kimi who was trying to break up an argument between Phil and Lil "My best friend and girlfriend happen to be cheerleaders."
"That's so cute. I always knew you and Lil would end up together" Tommy started laughing and shook his head "No,Kimi. I'm dating Kimi. Lil won't even give me the time of day." he turned to face them and Rachel stood next to him "I'm glad to see you're happy though" they made an announcement about awards and Rachel looked up at him "It was great seeing you" she gave him a quick hug and started to walk away before turning around "And Tommy, don't give up on Lil." he gave her a smile and walked over to Kimi giving her a hug from behind and kissing her on the cheek "Good luck"
"What did Rachel want?" Phil asked as they walked back to their seats "Nothing really. She didn't have time to say anything." he shrugged and Phil shook his head. He didn't want Rachel coming back into the picture, she did enough damage to Tommy the first time.
The room fell silent as they were getting ready to announce the winner. Lil and Tommy made eye contact and he gave her a wink. Lil and Kimi were holding hands and waiting for the winner to announced. The judge seemed to be talking forever. The anticipation was killing them. He was finally handed the envelope and read second and third place winners. He pulled out the card that had first place on it "And the first place spot goes to... The Pineville Cougars!"
Lil and Kimi jumped up and hugged each other. The two of them ran up to the judge to get their trophy and and blue ribbon. Phil and Tommy met up with them after and Kimi rand up to Tommy and gave him a hug. He put his arm around her and he motioned for Lil to come over. She crossed her arms and walked over to him. He leaned down and whispered "So when do you want that date?"
