Chapter 53-
"Pizza's not a bad second choice all things considered." Jimmy said as he picked up a piece of pepperoni.
Kim smiled. "Is that your way of trying to make me feel better about burning our dinner?" She got up to get herself a soda.
"Yes, considering it was partly my fault."
"Partly? You did some major distracting buddy." She said as she stood in front of him.
"Yes but I was equally distracted." He said looking up at her.
"Really?" Kim smiled. "Anyone I know?"
"Yeah I think you might know her." Jimmy grinned, his dimples showing. He took Kim's hand and pulled her into his lap. "She's this amazing woman. Blonde hair, good body, and the best part is that she's the mother of my children."
"Sounds like a good woman."
"She's the best. I screwed up with her a long time ago but I think I'm going to be given a second chance to make things right with her."
"Well if it's who I'm thinking about, she's willing to give it another shot if you are."
"Seriously?" Jimmy asked, dropping the act.
"Yeah." She nodded. "Jimmy, I meant what I said the other night on the phone. I do love you. I think I always have. Maybe that's part of the reason I took off, I'm not sure. I do know that I did want to give you and Brooke a fair shot of making it."
"What happened with Brooke and me would've happened no matter where you were. You know that, right?"
"Yeah. You know when you got hurt and I went to New York, the minute I saw you, this part of my brain that I'd refused to acknowledge for so long just screamed at me that if you'd known about Charlie, you would've been there, no matter what."
"Well your brain was right."
Kim nodded and then she giggled a little.
"What?"
"The voice that was screaming at me? It sounded like you."
"Really?"
"Yep."
"Who knew I was so wise?"
"Certainly not me." Kim smiled.
"Me neither."

"You wanna knock or should I?" Ty asked Sully.
"Your turn."
Ty nodded and then knocked on the door.
"Yeah?" came a voice from the other side.
"Room service."
"I didn't order anything."
"Well sir, I have an order for this room number and if I don't collect some money or a signature I'm gonna be in big trouble, so could you open up? Maybe we can figure out who this does belong to." Ty said as he and Sully stood on opposite sides of the door.
"Fine, hold on." The man grumbled as he opened the door. He stepped into the doorway.
"Freeze!" Sully said to him.
Tony froze. "What's going on here?"
"You're under arrest." Sully told him as Ty went into check for Abby.
"On what charges?"
"Breaking and entering, assault on two police officers, not to mention Catherine Zambrano and her daughter, and kidnapping."
"Kidnapping? She's my daughter." Tony said.
"Yeah and you nearly killed her mother." Sully said. "So, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say, can and will be used against you in a court of law." He said as he put the cuffs on Tony.

Kim picked up the phone about an hour later. "Hello?"
"Kim? It's Faith."
"Everything okay?"
"Yeah. How'd you like to come down and get your niece?"
"What?" She said excitedly. "Jimmy! Get in here!" She said loudly before going into the phone, "Is she okay?"
"She's fine. I'm gonna go get your kids and bring them to Mercy. The doctors are checking Abby out right now and they said you'd probably be able to take her home tonight."
"Kim?" Jimmy appeared in the doorway.
"They found Abby. We can go get her and our kids."
"Yes!" He ran and picked Kim up off the ground as he spun her around in a circle.
"Faith, we'll see you soon." Kim said before she hung up. "It's over. This whole mess is finally over."
"Thank you God." Jimmy smiled.
"Pizza's not a bad second choice all things considered." Jimmy said as he picked up a piece of pepperoni.
