"Lizzie, sweetie got to get up, school" Kim said
Lizzie woke up "School?"
"Yeah, Trini, enrolled you into a Reefside Primary"
"Do you think I'll make friends?"
"Of course sweetie" Kim said kissing her forehead "I got your clothes picked out, so get ready and meet down stairs"
"Ok , mommy"
Kim walked downstairs to see Trini waiting.
"Is she excited?"
"Yes, very" Kim said
"Want me to take her?"
"No I can" Kim looked around "Where's Tommy and Jason?"
"Asleep"
"Doesn't Tommy have school?"
"No they have the day off"
"Why?"
"The power went off in the school, and they need to find the problem and fix it"
"Oh… Let's just let him sleep"
"Good idea" Trini said laughing "Jason said he was going to take Tommy to his Karate class."
"Cool."
"Very. I need to head to work"
"You already got our job?"
"Yeah, the 2nd grade teacher already left. And guess what"
"What?"
"I'm Lizzie's teacher"
"Lizzie will love that"
"I hope so"
Lizzie finished getting ready, she wore her pink shirt and overalls along with her pink zip up sweat shirt, and ran out her bedroom door and right into Tommy.
"I'm so sorry" Lizzie said
"It's alright, we seem always run into each other"
Lizzie smiled and giggled
"What are you doing up so early?" Tommy asked
"I'm going to school" Lizzie said proud
"That's great" He said watching her bounce up and down being excited fro school
"It is, I can't wait to make new friends" she said
Tommy smiled at her "I'll see you when you get home" He said
"Alright, Bye" she said running down the hallway, then she stopped and turned "Um… Tommy?"
"Yes, Princess?"
"Um… can I… can I… uh… call you… daddy" she asked in a soft voice
"Do you want to?"
She nodded
"Of course you can" He said smiling at her
She started to cry a little bit, then ran down the hall to him.
He saw he running and opened his arms and when she got there picked her up. She cried for a couple minutes.
"I love you daddy" she said
"I love you too, princess" he said hugging her closer to him.
"Lizzie?" They heard Kim call from down stairs
"Come on, you need to get to school" Tommy said wiping her eyes
"Ok"
Tommy walks down the stairs with Lizzie in his arms.
"I'm sorry if she woke you up, Tommy" Kim said
"I was already up, we ran into each other this morning"
"Guess what mommy"
"What?"
"He says I can call him daddy" she said happily
Kim smiled
"That's great" she said "Sorry to rune the excitement, but you need to eat breakfast before school, there's a bowl of cereal waiting for you in the kitchen"
"Ok, Mommy, Bye Daddy" she said as Tommy put her down, and she kissed his cheek and ran into the kitchen to eat
"She's very fond of you" Kim said
Tommy looks at her with a smile
"I'm glad" she said
"So am I" he said "I like I, being called Daddy. I like how it feels"
"Well being called mommy and being a mom is an awesome feeling, so I assume it would feel good to be called Daddy for you" she said laughing
"I really, glad I sent you that, because now I know her"
"I'm glad you sent it too"
"We still on for tonight?"
"Of course"
"Good"
"Mommy I'm done" Lizzie said running back into the room
"Alright lets go"
"Bye Daddy" Lizzie said then ran out the door to the car
"Bye Tommy" Kim said getting ready to leave but Tommy grabbed her arm
"Bye Kim" He said kissing her
Kim was in shock, she recently he's given her a kiss on the cheek, but this was a real kiss… wow… Stunned Kim walked outside to the car leaving Tommy laughing a little bit.
Kim took Lizzie to school and walked her to her room.
"Long time no see Trini" Kim said laughing
Trini laughed too
"Yeah no kidding"
"When does class start?"
"Five minutes"
"Mommy, can I go play with the kids?"
"Go ahead" she said
"Bye Mommy" she said hugging Kim and kissing her
"Bye Baby"
Kim watched as Lizzie ran to where a girl was sitting with three other boys.
"Hi" Lizzie said walking up
"Hi" The girl said
"I'm Lizzie, I'm new" she said
"I'm Hikari, everyone calls me Kari. Mommy called me that since I'm Japanese and Hikari means Light and she says I light up her life" She explained
"Nice to meet you"
The guys kind of just stared and wondered how Hikari could talk so fast.
"Oh, these are my friends… This is Jackson we call Jack" she said pointing to the boy in red "And this Benjamin, but we call him Benny" Pointing to the boy in blue "and this is Zachary. We call him Zacky" Pointing to the boy in black and purple.
"Cool, I'm actually, Elizabeth, but Mommy calls me Lizzie"
"Now that everyone knows everyone, we can get back to our game"
"What are you playing?"
"Power Rangers, you can be the pink one"
"Which ones?"
"Um… the first ones"
"Why?" Lizzie asked wondering why
"Because they were the best, Mommy told me stories about them"
"Me too" the boys said
"I think they were the best" Lizzie said knowing that her mom and dad were the first ones along with their teacher and her uncles
"Ok, class settle down, we're going to start"
Lizzie looked up to see Kim leaving and mouthed I love you, she did back
"Oh… We'll play after" Kari said
Kim walked out to the car.
"What am I going to do today?" She asked herself "I'll go to the gym, doing gymnastics will be good for me" She said
Kim drove to the gym
"It was a good thing I have my leotard" she said
She went to change came out to see no one at the balance beam, and pretty much no one at all. She walked to the balance beam.
She flipped on the beam
"No flaws there" She commented
She started to do a series of Cartwheels, splits and flips.
"You still go it" she said to herself and did a complete split.
"Kim?" A voice asked
Kim turned to see Kira standing there
"Hey Kira" Kim said getting down
"You're great" Kira said
"Thanks"
"You should still compete"
"No I just do this for fun"
"Oh, could you teach me sometime"
"Sure I could, you've been awesome to me while I've been here"
"I'm friends don't believe that I know you" Kira said laughing
Kim laughed a little
"You see I still don't see what the big fuss is about"
"Some people don't want to let go?" she said laughing "Also since this town is close to Angel Grove they keep up the gossip between the towns, like the power rangers, that's why everyone knows them here"
"Is there a Power Ranger team?"
"Yeah, their new I think, she showed up a little while ago" Kira said
"What colors?"
"Blue, White, Yellow, Red, and Black"
'No pink' Kim thought 'oh well'
"Kimberly!" a voice called
Kim had a look of pain "Oh no" she mumbled
Kira looked to see who called
"Oh… Cassidy" she said
"Yeah…"
"Kimberly!" Cassidy said walking up "Hi" She looked at Kira "What are you doing here?"
"Talking to my friend" Kira said
"You're friends with Kimberly Hart"
"Yeah"
"Kim is that true?"
"Of course she's one of my best friends, right, Kira"
"Yep"
"Anyway, about the interview"
Kim looked at her watch
"Oh my god, I'm going to be late, I need to go, Kira come on lets go" Kim said looking at Kira
"Alright, lets go" Kira said looking at the look on Kim's face
"Bye Cassidy" Kim said
"Bye Kimberly"
"Do you really have to go?" Kira asked
"Yeah, I can't believe I stayed at the gym all day. I need to go pick up Lizzie, and I need a nap, I'm so tired."
"Can I come with?"
"Sure, would you mind watching Lizzie while I slept?"
"No, not at all"
"Thank you!"
"Anytime"
When Kira and Kim got to Lizzie's classroom she saw Lizzie playing with the kids she saw earlier.
Lizzie felt her mom's presence and turned
"Mommy! Come here and meet my friends, please" she said
"Come on Kira"
Kim and Kira walked over to the group of kids, Lizzie hugged her mom and then hugged Kira.
"Hi Kira"
"Hi Lizzie"
"Mommy, this is Kari, she's Japanese, she can speak some, its cool! And this is Jack, and this Zacky and this is Benny"
"Nice to meet all of you" Kim said
"Nice to meet you too, Ms. Hart" The kids say
"Um… Kira, I'll be right back, can you get Lizzie ready"
"Yeah sure"
"Thank you"
Kim walked over to Trini.
Before Kim could say anything Trini already said something
"Yeah in know, I saw them too"
"Good it wasn't just me"
"Yup, J is red, B is blue and Z is black, and the yellow one is oriental. You don't think?"
"Maybe… I mean Lizzie could lead them, after all she comes from the greatest ranger" she said
"Good point" Trini said laughing "and the greatest girl ranger of all time"
"Huh? Since when?"
"Since all the rangers up to ninja storm voted."
"Why me?"
"Because you helped the teams when they needed it, and they know you were the best choice to ask"
"Alright, cool! I think I like the title"
"Yeah, you would" Trini said laughing more
"Alright, I want to go home and sleep"
"Alright, meet you at home later"
"Ok, bye"
"Bye"
"We're going to go, Lizzie say bye"
"Bye, see you guys tomorrow"
"Bye" they all said
Kim, Kira and Lizzie walked into Tommy's place.
'Why is she at Dr. O's house?'
"Lizzie, sweetie, Kira is going to watch you while I take a nap"
"Ok, mommy. When is daddy getting home?"
"I don't know"
"I'm going to get a bag a of chips" Lizzie said
"Just one" Kim said "Night sweetie"
"Night mommy" Lizzie said kissing her cheek and then going into the kitchen to get a bag of chips
"Daddy?" Kira asked
"Yeah, her Dad lives here, he might be home before I wake up, just tell him that I'm sleeping and you're watching her"
"Ok, one more question, she has a dad. You're nit married, how does that work out?"
"Complicated…" Kim said "…cliff notes, I got pregnant, broke up with him because I was on the other side of the country I didn't need him to worry and he had his whole life ahead of him. Then he sent me a letter telling me he still cared for me and here I am, going on a date with him tonight, and Lizzie knows her dad"
"Oh…"
"Night Kira, If Lizzie needs me, she can wake me up"
"Alright. Night"
Kim walked up stairs.
"Kira do you know about the power rangers? The first ones?"
"No, not really"
"Are you a power ranger?"
"What?"
"Never mind. I can't wait for Daddy to get home"
Tommy pulled up his drive way and walked toward the house deep in thought
'Today is the day. I finally get another chance with Kim.
I should really tell her about the ranger stuff, I mean Jason knows. I surprised he hasn't old her. I wonder if Lizzie knows all about the rangers? Probably does, I'll ask her.'
"Kim?" Tommy asked walking through the door
"Daddy!" Lizzie shouted running down the stairs to greet him
"Hey Princess, Where's Kim?"
"Sleeping, she had a long day"
"Lizzie?" a new voice asked coming from the kitchen
Tommy looked to see Kira standing there
"Kira?"
"Hey Dr. O" Kira said
"What are you doing here?"
"Watching Lizzie, see I told you I know Kim"
"Daddy, Kira and me watched movies, we watched the Barbie movies, they're so cool"
"Daddy?" Kira asked "You're her dad?"
"Yeah"
"Wow."
"Yeah, I couldn't believe it myself"
"Daddy, can we spend the day together tomorrow?"
"Of course"
