Kimberly stood in front of a mirror getting ready for her wedding. She was dressed in floor length pink strapless dress with white hearts printed on it. The skirt was puffy and there was sequins on the dress. Her hair was in a fancy bun. Tanya, Katherine, Angela and Haley were brides maids. Aisha was the maid of honor. "I've never heard of a wedding where the groom walks his own bride down the aisle," started Aisha. "Whose idea was that?"
"Mine and Tommy's," confessed Kimberly. All of the girls in the room stared at her. "I don't have any to do with my real dad, I'm not close to my step-father, and Jason is gone, and I don't have a brother. The only close male friend that I have is Tommy." Tommy walked into the room while they were talking. He was dressed in a white suit, a pink dress shirt, and a bright pink tie with white hearts.
"And I told Kimberly that we could have our wedding anyway we wanted," interrupted Tommy. He immediately stopped talking when he saw Kimberly. She looked so beautiful. Tommy walked over to Kimberly and tightly embraced her. "Are you sure you want to walk me down the isle?"
"Of course, Beautiful," reassured Tommy as he wiped a tear from Kimberly's face. "We've decided to change things a little bit. Both of us decided that no one was going to give you away. We decided that the bride and groom were going to walk down the isle together. After all, we're starting our life together and we can start now." Aisha, Katherine, Tanya, and Haley left the room since the wedding was going to start.
"Ready, Beautiful?" asked Tommy, as he held out his hand and Kimberly took hold of walked out of the room and walked down the isle together. Tommy's grooms men (Rocky, Adam, and Zack) had already walked the isle, along with Billy (Tommy's best man). The church was decorated in red, pink, and white roses. And there were heart balloons since it was valentines days. As soon as they reached the end of the isle, Kimberly tripped over her skirt and her dress tore. The dress had poor manufacturing, when it was made.
Tommy kneeled down to help her up and noticed her dress ripped right down the middle. To save her of embarrassment, he took off his white jacket and gave it to her to put on. Both of them were relieved that the jacket came down her knees. Tommy had a red rose pinned to his jacket. He removed the safety pin and the rose hit the floor. Then he quickly pined the front of the jacket together, so Kimberly wouldn't show too much cleavage. "Tommy, I don't know if I can do this or not," Kimberly whimpered, as he helped her up and her wedding dress fell to the floor. All she was wearing was white stockings, pink heels, and Tommy's white suit jacket.
"Of course you can, Beautiful," reassured Tommy. "Within the next several minutes, you'll be Mrs. Oliver." He wrapped an arm around her, while they were getting married. Finally after a few minutes (which seemed like hours to Tommy and Kimberly), the minster pronounced them man and wife. Before they minster could say that Tommy could kiss Kimberly, he was already doing it. "You may continue kissing your bride," stated the minster. After they pulled apart, he introduced them as Dr. and Mrs. Oliver. The party was at the Oliver house, Kimberly was relieved that she had moved in the day before because she could change her clothes. She changed into a pink dress with hearts that had spaghetti straps. Her stockings were torn, so she just threw them away. When she went back down stairs, her and Tommy got to cut the cake. Even though Kimberly's embarrassing moment was over, she was still feeling embarrassed that her wedding dress tore. All she could think about was having her alone time with Tommy, even though she was enjoying dancing with him.
Finally, the party was over and everyone left. Kimberly followed Tommy upstairs to "their" room. The room was done in pink, green, white, red, and black. The room had pink, green, and white striped wall paper, the carpet was pink, they had a white border with red rose, their comforter was green with red and pink flowers with matching pillow cases, and the curtains were pink, green, white, red, and black plaid. "I'm impressed with our room," Kimberly smiled as she began to undress and get ready for bed.
"I'm glad you like it," replied Tommy as he finished striping out of his suit and tie. "I spent the last few weeks working on it." He looked up and saw Kimberly was ready for bed and he quickly stepped out of his boxers and got in bed with her. A few hours later, Tommy woke up in the middle of the night, after he heard his cell phone go off. He turned the lamp on and grabbed his cell phone. Tommy had gotten a text about a class reunion that was taking place in a few months for the class of 2004. Kimberly sat up in bed and noticed Tommy had his cell phone out.
"I thought you had your phone turned off," Kimberly said in a tired voice. "Who is texting you at this hour?"
"It was a text from Randall. We having about the Reefside High class reunion for the class of 2004," answered Tommy. " She is asking for the teachers to come to the reunion. I never told my students that I was dating or they don't know I'm married. Four of my former students were rangers. I haven't heard from them since they left Reefside High School." Kimberly sat up in bed next him and moved close to him to read the text. "Tommy, I will go with you. I heard a lot about them and would like to meet them," stated Kimberly as she pulled him into a tight embrace.
"Thanks, Beautiful," thanked Tommy, as he turned his phone off, turned the lamp out, and laid back down in the bed. He pulled Kimberly back into a tight embrace and they went back to sleep.
May 2005
The Reefside High School class of 2004 was having a class reunion. Conner McKnight walked into the school and spotted Ethan James. "Ethan!" shouted Conner. "Hey man wait up!" Ethan turned around and waited for Conner to catch up with him.
"What are you doing now that you're out of school?" Ethan asked, while they were walking down the crowded hall way.
"I'm trying to get a soccer camp program," answered Conner. "What about you?"
"I'm attending Reefside Tech." stated Ethan. They continued to walk down the hall to see if they could find their friend Kira Ford. While they were walking down the hall, Kira was walking into the school and saw them walking down the stairs. "Hey, guys!" cried Kira. Ethan and Conner turned around and waited for her to make her way down to them. She hugged both of her friends.
"We're glad to see you," smiled Conner. They continued walking around the school. "I thought you were in New York getting your music career going."
"You can already hear me on the radio singing a jingle about cat litter," laughed Kira. The boys started laughing with her. She paused for a minute and realized that a lot of the their teachers were standing in the hall. "Hey, do you think Dr. O is around?"
"We can go find out," replied Ethan. "I am hoping we'll run into him." They all started to walk around the school to search for Tommy. All of the teachers were standing out in the hall talking with their former students. None of them saw Tommy on the first floor. "Maybe Dr. O is up in his classroom," realized Ethan. "Let's go check there."
They walked back up the crowded stair case and made their way to Tommy's classroom. All of them reached Tommy's classroom and they saw Kimberly sitting at Tommy's desk. She was dressed in a pair pink denim capris, a light pink tee shirt, and a pink floral dress shirt. "Maybe, they moved his classroom," said Kira. "We could ask this woman where is room is." Kira walked into Tommy's classroom. When she walked in, she saw Tommy had pictures on his desk. She noticed that he had wedding picture on his desk and Kimberly was in the picture with him. "Can you tell me where Dr. Oliver's classroom is?" Kira asked.
Kimberly looked up from entering some of the grades into Tommy's grade book. "You're in the right place," Kimberly reassured. "Tommy's finishing using the scantron machine to grade his papers. I was helping him in enter them into the grade book." Ethan and Conner came into the room and took a seat at the place where they usually sat at in Tommy's class, which was the front table. "Excuse me, can you tell us who you are?" asked Ethan.
"I'm Kimberly Oliver," revealed Kimberly. She laid down her pen and started talking with Kira, Conner, and Ethan. "I've finished up my first year at Reefside as a PE teacher."
"I've noticed you have the same last name as Dr. O," pointed out Ethan. "Are you his sister, sister-in-law, cousin, or niece?"
"I'm not a sister, sister-in-law, cousin or niece," started Kimberly. "Believe it or not I'm..."
"Kimberly is my wife," said a familiar voice. All three of the former rangers turned around and saw Tommy walk into his room. He was dress in his usual khaki pants, black tee shirt, and tan shirt. Tommy laid down the rest of the scantrons down on his desk.
"Dr.O, you're married?!" gasped Ethan, Conner, and Kira. Tommy took a seat next to Kimberly and put an arm around her. "We didn't even know you had a girl friend."
"I did and we dated for years," smiled Tommy. "She just didn't come to Reefside because I didn't want her wrapped in this ranger stuff again. Every time I we saw each other, I went to Angel Grove. She moved to Reefside this year and we finally got this year. What are you all doing these days?"
"I'm trying to start a soccer camp," started Conner. "And I am giving soccer lessons too."
"I'm attending Reefside Tech," continued Ethan. "I'm studying computers."
"And I'm in New York working on my music career," finished Kira. "I've already started singing jingles." She was surprised that Tommy had heard her sing on the radio."We haven't heard from Trent since we graduated."
"Trent is in art school and has signed a contract to start drawing comic books," revealed Tommy. "He sent me an e-mail and said he wouldn't be able to make it."
Kira, Conner, and Ethan's mouth's dropped, when they found that out. They didn't know about Trent, since he rarely contacted them. "Dr. O, when did you and Kimberly get married?" Conner asked.
"We got married on Valentines day," informed Kimberly. "Then we went to the Bahamas for our honey moon." Tommy got a picture frame off his desk. It had four pictures in it. One was of him and Kimberly walking on the beach, one was of them swimming in the ocean, one was of them standing in a pool of water behind a waterfall, and the last one was of them laying on the beach. They started talking about how they got together and about how eventful there year had been.
"Sounds like there you are still having a lot of drama going on," remarked Ethan.
"Actually, things have been quiet since we got married," announced Tommy. "Kimberly and I plan to live a quiet live and teach."
