I don't own any of the characters or songs unless stated other wise.
Kim's soft but rough voice wafted through the speakers. The first song was called "Not A Pretty Girl." The first verse seemed to be an ode to her days as a ranger.
I am not a pretty girl
That is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distress
And I don't need to be rescued
So put me down punk
Maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair
Isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere
Tommy had a sound system that ran through the entire house. He went into his bedroom closet and pulled out some suitcases.
I am not an angry girl
But it seems like I've got everyone fooled
Every time I say something they find hard to hear
They chalk it up to my anger
And never to their own fear
And imagine you're a girl
Just trying to finally come clean
Knowing full well they'd prefer you
Were dirty and smiling
And I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
And I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere
"I wonder what she meant about trying to come clean?" Tommy thought.
He threw enough shirts, jeans, underwear, and socks for at least four days. He wasn't sure how long he would be staying, but he doubted it would be less than two days .he started to pack whatever miscellaneous things he would need. Like a toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.
And generally my generation
Wouldn't be caught dead working for the man
And generally I agree with them
Trouble is you gotta have yourself an alternate plan
And I have earned my disillusionment
I have been working all of my life
And I am a patriot
I have been fighting the good fight
"Kim's right there." Tommy thought chuckling.
He walked down into his kitchen and called Elsa. He explained the situation and she did the one thing he never expected her to do. She laughed, the worst part was it wasn't just a small chuckle it was a full on fit. She told him to take all the time he needed and that she expected the full details and an autograph when he got back. Then he called Haley. When he told her the first thing she did was laugh.
"So have you listened to the Cd yet?" she asked him
"No I'm only on the first song which is pretty good." Tommy said
"Well I'll say this, you're getting in over your head." She told him and he knew right there that she had known for a long time.
And what if there are no damsels in distress
What if I knew that and I called your bluff?
Don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down?
Whether or not you ever show up
I am not a pretty girl
I don't want to be a pretty girl
No I want to be more than a pretty girl
"I had no doubt that you could have gotten down by yourself Kim. I just thought you wanted my help. But you're right Kim there are no damsels in distress, my white knight complex put you there. You were always more than just a pretty girl, honey" Thought Tommy.
Tommy decided that he wasn't sure that he could listen to the rest of the Cd. He popped it out of his stereo and grabbed Kira's. He turned on his laptop and pulled up his ITunes. He uploaded both Cds on it and made a play list combining them alternating between Kim and Kira's songs. He put all of his stuff in his jeep, plugged in his ipod to the jeep stereo, went back and locked up the house, then left for Angel Grove,
