Kira was sitting in Tommy's class, listening to him teach when Principal Randall came in. Tommy stopped his teaching until Randall left.
"Ms. Ford, if you will come with me. Why don't you come too, Dr. Oliver?" Randal ordered.
Kira looked at Tommy with wide eyes. He motioned for her to go. Kira walked to the door with her stuff.
"Work on the questions at the end of the chapter. Trent, keep an eye on the class." Tommy ordered as he followed Kira and Randall into the hall.
"Ms. Ford open your locker, then step aside." Randall ordered.
Kira looked at Tommy before doing anything. He nodded. Kira opened her locker and stepped to the side and stood next to Tommy. He put his arm around her. Randall rummaged through the locker. She found the answer key to Mrs. Landon history test and the other stolen items, all except the ring that is. Kira was shocked to see that stuff in her locker. Tommy was also shocked.
"Principal Randall, I didn't take that stuff. I swear." Kira started to say.
"Save it Ford, you are expelled. Take your things, and leave!" Randall yelled and then walked away.
Kira broke down in tears on Tommy. He tried to comfort his daughter, he know that she didn't do it. Tommy called Justina to come and pick up Kira. After Kira left with Justina, Tommy went down to Randall's office about her railroading his daughter. His argument with Randall didn't go well. She pretty much told him that he should get back to his class if he wants to keep his job.
His class was practically over when he got back there. Conner, Mercy, Ethan and Trent came running up to him when they saw that Kira wasn't with him.
"Where's Kira?" Ethan asked.
"Randall expelled her." Tommy said.
They were shocked by this announcement.
"What? Why?" Trent asked.
"It seems that the missing items turned up in her locker." Tommy explained.
"I bet it was Trevor and Rick. They set her up! We can't let them get away with it." Conner yelled getting angry.
"Conner, cool it. Yes, that is my guess too. But, we can't prove it." Tommy said cooling down all the kids as they were all getting upset at the situation.
"So what we do?" Mercy asked.
"For now, we do nothing. I will work on getting Kira reenrolled. Don't go after Trevor and Rick on this. I repeat do not go after them. We have to play this hand out." Tommy explained to the kids.
Tommy cell phone rang, He didn't think twice about answering. Tommy has kept his cell phone on him at all times, since the time Kim passed out from anemia.
"Hello, this is Tommy." He said.
"Tommy, it is Adam. I heard from Rocky and Aisha. They said they ran into you and that you and Kim are together." Adam said.
"We are, how are you doing and what have you been up to?" Tommy asked.
"I married Tanya and I am a pediatrician. Tanya and I have been discussing moving to Reefside so I can open my own practice." Adam told him.
"Congratulations on the wedding and I have some patients for you already." Tommy said smiling at the idea of having 2 more friends around.
"Yeah, Aisha told me you have twin daughters. They're 5 I think she said."
"Yeah they are and don't have a doctor here in town yet. Just my mother, but right now she is dealing mostly with taking care of Kim." Tommy explained.
"Why what is wrong with Kimberly?" Adam asked.
"Kimberly suffers from anemia, she is fine right now, but last week she passed out with a bad case of it." Tommy explained and hung up the phone. He couldn't wait to see another friend of his. Now all he has to do is deal with Kira being expelled.
He is going to give Randall a few days to calm down and then he will discuss it with her.
Tommy went home Kimberly was sitting on the couch, she looked tired. Tommy rushed over to her concerned.
"Beautiful, are you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah, I am just tired. But I am not anemic. I am fine." Kimberly said and watched him relax.
"Where is Jason?" Tommy wondered.
"He took Jessica to the movies with Jasmine and Mercedes." Kim told him.
Tommy then went to tell Kimberly about the events of the day including Adam's phone call and the situation with Kira.
"Kira will be fine, we will home-school her if we have to." Kim told him.
"I wanted to do this since we got back together. Kimberly Anne Hart, will you marry me?" Tommy asked getting down on one knee.
Kimberly turned away from him and thought about the time they first met, their first date, when she left for Florida and everything in between. Tommy thought that maybe he jumped the gun a bit.
"Kimberly-" He said.
"I didn't want to make it to easy for you; of course I will marry you." Kimberly said smiling.
"I had a ring for you, but it was stolen. Kira said you would probably want to turn it into a necklace." Tommy said.
"She is right; having something on my hand that I can't feel would drive me insane. I will wear it on a chain around my neck if you get it back." Kim said smiling.
Tommy was happy, she had said yes to marrying him, now they have to tell the others about their future plans.
