Chapter 2- Coming home

It started raining lightly outside and beside a shocked Tommy was her, his love, his beautiful. Kimi Finster. Phil was right, she did return to him but she was in a state that he didn't like she was all bruised and beaten and she was crying.

"K-Kimi? W-what happened? I thought you went with Z and his friends" he said.

"Tommy I'm so sorry" she sobbed "You were right I did make the biggest mistake of my life for leaving you for Z. Please forgive me, if you don't I understand…" Tommy knew he couldn't be mad at her right now and he pulled her in for a hug and then looked at her.

"What happened, what's with the bruises?" he asked rubbing her face softly.

"Z has been beating me, I try not to make him mad but he just wails on me for no reason. The main reason why he does this to me was because I wouldn't… have sex with him…" she explained "Now I don't know if any of my family or friends will accept me back…" she cried.

Tommy smiled "You know Chuckie missed you very much."

"Really?" she asked.

"Yeah, him, Phil, and Dil are at the mall; Come on, let me take you to them." Her said and the two of them walked away to the mall.

Meanwhile Phil, Dil, and Chuckie were at the food court having themselves a bit of a snack. Chuckie got some KFC, Dil got a hot dog and Phil got some McDonalds. All three of them were chatting and enjoying their meals when Chuckie's phone rang.

"Hello? Oh, hey T."

"What?"

"Ok, yeah I'll wait. Bye"

Chuckie hung up the phone and put it back into his pocket.

"What'd he want?" asked Phil.

"Tommy says he has a surprise for us or something but he wouldn't tell me what it was." Said the redheaded teen.

Just then Tommy came into the mall with Kimi who had her hood back up. He looked around for the guys and saw them sitting at a table "Yo guys!" he yelled to them waving. They saw him and waved back and got up to walk over to him and the hooded Kimi.

They noticed the mysterious hooded stranger "Who's that Tommy?" asked Chuckie.

"It's your guys' surprise" he said.

"Who is it T?" asked his brother Dil. Then Kimi took down her hood and revealed herself to them. Phil and Dil were shocked and Chuckie's eyes bugged out as he dropped his bucket of chicken onto the floor.

"K-K-Kimi!?" said Chuckie with tears forming into his eyes, he almost had a heart attack. "Where have you been all this time? You worried us all!" he said as he hugged his sister.

"Chuck I'm so sorry for leaving all of you, forgive me please." She asked sadly.

"Don't worry sis we all forgive you, we're just glad that you're safe and away from that green-haired bastard and his friends." She smiled at him along with Phil and Dil and they smiled back.

Just then Lil suddenly came up with her 'friends', Kimi saw her and was surprised of how much she changed but she ran up to her anyways "Lil!" she yelled happily. Lil was shocked to see the long lost purple haired woman in front of her, but instead of being happy she gave her an angry look.

"How dare you!" she said with venom in her tone which surprised Kimi. "How dare you betray us and leave with a person you don't even love? I mean if you thought Z and his friends were better than the people you've known most of your life then you're wrong. You're dead to me Kimi Finster!" Kimi was shocked of what Lil had just said and looked down in shame.

Then Tommy, Phil, Dil, and Chuckie stepped in "Don't you ever talk to her like that again you hypocritical bitch!" Tommy yelled.

"Yeah Lil and to be honest I'd rather have Kimi back than you!" Dil yelled

"And you're the one talk about betrayal." Phil said "Remember after Kimi left you got with T only to just flake out on him a month later? You're the one who should be ashamed!"

Next it was Chuckie's turn to be mad "And that whole thing of Kimi leaving to be with other people? Look at you, all you ever do with these girls is blab on about nonsense and bullshit!"

"Yeah Lil if you would've been a true girlfriend then you wouldn't have turned out like this. If you say I'm dead to you then you're dead to me!" Kimi yelled.

Lil wasn't going to have any of this, she just turned around in a huff and walked off with her 'friends'.

"Guys what happened to her?" Kimi asked Phil.

"Ever since you left she changed for the worst and ever since Angelica left school she also became the new popular girl. All she ever does with group of so called friends is talk about clothes, shitty music, and Brad Pitt." He said with his arms crossed.

"Hey, you gotta be starving. Do you want me to get you any food?" Asked Tommy.

Kimi smiled "Thank you Tommy" she said and hugged him. It felt great for her to be back in the group. After talking and eating they all got up and decided to do some shopping cause Kimi need some new clothes.

After shopping for an hour they all decided to leave. "Chuckie can I stay with Tommy for a little while, I don't feel ready to be reunited with Mom and Dad…"

Chuckie smiled "Sure sis you can stay with him. But Pickles no funny business! You hear me?" he said sternly which made Tommy roll his eyes.

"Yes Chuckie, I hear ya…" Tommy said.

They all said their goodbyes to each other and parted ways.

"Tommy how come you and Chuckie haven't been talking for a while?" Kimi asked.

Tommy sighed "It's your parents" he explained "They thought I was useless and thought I just let you go off with Z and didn't do anything to stop it. Because of that, they wouldn't let me talk to Chuckie and he was pretty upset too." Kimi was horrified of what she had done but she was trying not to think it was his entire fault.

It had started to pour down and the only thing they had to shield them from the rain was Tommy's jacket. Tommy, Dil, and Kimi finally reached the Pickles house and got inside to dry off.

"Mom we're home!" Dil called. Didi walked out of the kitchen to greet her sons but was shocked to see the third person standing with them.

"Kimi?" she said astonished.

"Hey Mrs. Pickles" Kimi said nervously.

"Stu come up here quick!" Didi shouted in the basement.

Stu came up with a screwdriver in his hands and nearly finished the new toy he was working on "What is it Deed? I'm almost finished with the…" before he finished he saw Kimi Finster with Tommy and Dil. "Kimi!?" he said "W-what? H-how?" he asked in total shock.

"Kimi came to her senses dad and left Z to come back home to us, she feels guilty about the whole runaway thing." Tommy said.

"How ironic" said Didi "Today was the day she left and now she's back home." Kimi blushed a little knowing that they still loved her and she went up to hug Stu and Didi.

"Kimi you must be filthy, how about you go up and take a shower?" said Stu and Kimi nodded with a smile. After her shower she put on the new set of pajamas that were lying on the couch.

"Thanks for letting me stay here Tommy" she said happily.

Tommy smiled at her "Anything for you babe" he said and kissed her on the cheek. Stu and Didi were secretly watching them in the other room.

"What a great couple." Said Didi

"Yeah. Remember when we did that in front of our parents and it started the feud between my dad and your dad" Stu laughed.

Didi giggled back "Yes Darling" she said and continued to watch the two lovers spend time with each other.
