Summary: Remember the times he was with someone else can be good and bad…those memories could bring them closer together…Kimmy just smiles, wants to stay forever…Song written and sung by Robert Downey Jr. I OWN NOTHING.
"Vacation, holiday a strange way to save a family. I set beside this brother's pride, for the last ride."
Pepper had come into the living room with two salami sandwiches and cokes in her hands. She set the food and drinks on the coffee table and sat on the couch. She looked at him with a smile and took a bite of her sandwich.
"Nose dive, hell fire my lifeline doesn't survive blind rage. Set the stage to say I'll never love again."
She listened to him sing…just like the day before. He sat at the piano, every now and then hitting keys and singing. He was dressed in the clothes he wore yesterday, his hair in a mess from last night. She smiled at the memories and sipped on her coke.
"Kimberly Glide, in the arms of cactus angels. Mayan big shots float around; guess this is her home now."
She knew who he was singing about; she worked for him for the past 10 years, and knew about his last long relationship with Kimberly Thomson. She remembered how bad he took the break up…she was the one who cleaned up the scotch bottles.
"You mistook me for a man who understands things of godless, heartless, pitiful nature. Hell, I just settled in for the winter."
He played a longpiano solo to take a look at her. She wore a white button down shirt, belonged to him. Her hair was in a messy pony tail…she looked beautiful.
"You look really sexy when you were my clothes." He said. He smiled when her cheeks lit up pink.
"For, Five and Seventeen still struggle with the meaning. It's a straight groove, I'm a man now. Turned out ok perfect somehow."
"Pepper…"He said. She looked over to him; coke can pressed to her lips. "I love you." He said. She smiled around the can and turned away for a moment.
"I love you too."
"It's a love hate, in LAtely. Wanna glide but in a different way today. Drop to knee, pray deep, hope I met my."
He smiled as he played the piano, his thoughts gone to last night.
"Kimmy decides she is down for a rare union. She jets a path north, past the pitiful port of sandy sunny San Diego."
She remembered the time he left home to stay with Kimberly for a year…in New York. Only for him to come back heartbroken.
"All those years out of reach, there's Manhattan beach now. Ahead on the right now."
She got to her feet and placed his sandwich on the piano for him. Then takes a seat next to him.
"Salvation, holy day my heart skips, jumps beat, I see a face. Sister god gave me and took away, floating off my balcony in Del Rey."
"Good, good god."
He reached for his sandwich to take a bite as the song came to an end. He eats and swallows the food to end the song.
"Kimmy just smiles, wants to stay forever. I'd have her now but we know that's just a word. We wish we'd never heard when we're together. Says she must return, must return to cactus angels."
"I never loved her like I love you now." He said.
"Good…that means this is real." She replied.
"Wouldn't have it any other way."
