Tommy laid in bed for over an hour. He still couldn't sleep, so he quietly got out of bed. Kimberly was still sleeping peacefully. Tommy put on his slippers and house coat and went down to the living room to watch TV. He was watching reruns of Boy Meets World. It was one Tommy and Kimberly's favorite shows. After he had been down there for about half an hour, Kimberly woke up. She noticed that Tommy wasn't in bed. Kimberly put on her house coat and slippers and went down stairs.
She noticed a lamp was turned on in the living room, Kimberly walked into the living room and found Tommy on the couch. He was watching TV.
"What are you doing up?" asked Kimberly. "It's past midnight."
"I couldn't sleep?" replied Tommy. "I've got a lot on my mind."
"What?" asked Kimberly.
"Graduation, Project Graduation, and the ranger reunion," answered Tommy. "I really don't want to go."
"We've already promised Kira, Ethan, Conner, and Trent, that we'd be at their graduation," declared Kimberly. "We can't back out. And we've agreed to help chaperone during project graduation. Why don't you want to go to the ranger reunion?"
"Can we talk about it later?" asked Tommy.
"Sure," answered Kimberly. "Can I join you?"
Tommy moved over to make room for Kimberly. She got an afghan off of the side of couch. Kimberly took a seat next to Tommy. Within the next few minutes, they were both asleep. They ended up over sleeping. When they got up it was 10:30. Luckily, it was a Saturday. So, they didn't have to be at school. Recently, Tommy and had one of their bathrooms redone. They had Jacuzzi bathtub installed in their private bathroom. Kimberly thought that maybe a soak in the Jacuzzi would cheer Tommy up.
"Tommy, instead of taking a shower, would you rather get in the Jacuzzi?" asked Kimberly. "We can our take baths in it, instead of using the shower."
"Sure," answered Tommy.
They went back to their bedroom, and got out their clothes that they were going to put on after their bath. They laid their clothes on the bed and went into the bathroom. Tommy turned the Jacuzzi on and got it the right temperature. Then they striped, and got into the tub. It was big enough for two people. Usually, they used it when one of them was stressed or they had sore muscles.
Kimberly sat close to Tommy. She put her arm around him. She knew he was hiding something.
"What's going on?" asked Kimberly.
"I would prefer that we don't go to the reunion," admitted Tommy. "What if some of the former rangers know we are rangers again?"
"So, what's the big deal?" asked Kimberly.
"They've all moved on with their personal life," explained Tommy. "Some have a record deal, a karate school, teachers, and things like that. They haven't been rangers for as long as we have."
"We've been through a lot," answered Kimberly. "You've lost a brother, all of us lost Trini, and we learned we couldn't have children. My father divorced my step mother. He went back to my mother. But, they are together one minute, and they aren't the next."
"Kim, they are in Paris," added Tommy.
"You don't have to remind me," remarked Kimberly. "Your parents are retired and they are always traveling. For the past seven years, its just been the two of us."
"I know," answered Tommy." You don't have to remind me."
"I thought that you were happy?" gasped Kimberly.
"I wouldn't have it any other way," reassured Tommy. "We work at the same place and have the same work schedule. During the summers we will be home together. We get to spend all the holidays together, we help each other grade papers, and I wouldn't have it any other way."
"Neither would I," replied Kimberly. "Are you worried about running into anyone at graduation or at the project graduation?"
"Former Rangers," answered Tommy. "What would they think?"
"We don't have to tell them," reassured Kimberly. "You heard what Cassidy and Devin said. They aren't going to say we were rangers. Niether is Randall, Haley, or Anton."
"In two weeks, graduation will be over," said Tommy. "And it will be just the two of us, all summer long."
"That's our plan," remarked Kimberly. "But, we may want to see our team of rangers, before they leave for college."
"During graduation and the project graduation, can we stay together?" asked Tommy.
"Of course," replied Kimberly.
"You do know that they've reserved the new amusement park that was just built?" asked Tommy. "It has a water park in it."
"Don't remind me," begged Kimberly. "We haven't been to one, since Ivan and Kat captured me."
"This time, we aren't going on any water slides or anything with heights," promised Tommy.
They continued to soak in the Jacuzzi for the next hour. Then they took their baths. Kimberly suggested that they went shopping to get clothes to wear to graduation and for project graduation. Tommy purchased khakis, and a black tee, a navy and black plaid dress shirt. Kimberly purchased a blush pink tee, a pair of denim capris, and a pink floral dress shirt.
