Tommy looked around his apartment living room. It would bee a little tight but everyone would have somewhere to sleep, if they even went to sleep. Experiance from other sleepovers proved that no one ran out of energy when they were all together. It was almost four o'clock now, so he had 2 hours to get the snacks and then return.
~*Meanwhile*~
Adam pulled into the airport parking lot and got out of the car. He looked around to make sure he knew where his car was. It was so easy to get lost in these kinds of places. He found his way to the elevator and pressed the level 2 button. Slowly, he made his way past security. He was 3 minutes ahead of schedule as he reached Kim's gate, G13.
~**~
Kim fidgetted nervously. The captain had just announced that they would be landing any minute. She stuffed her only piece of luggage, a black and white backpack with pink zippers, under the seat infront of her. The plane began its decent. As it landed, Kim felt a knot in her stomach. She knew it wasn't from jet lag, it was seeing everyone. Seeing Adam first would help though. Besides Tommy, Kim had sent the most letters to him. Adam became her best friend and brother. Everyone began to get up from their seats and gather their luggage. Kim slung her lone backpack over one shoulder and waited patiently as the slower people blocked the exits. She exited the gate mixed in a mass of people. Looking around she managed to see Adam as he stood up from his chair. She walked over, trying to remain unnoticed for the moment. As he looked for her to the right, she side stepped in front of him,
"ADAM!" His head jerked back as she threw her arms around him a big bear hug with enough force that it knocked them both back onto the chair.
"KIM!" He wiggled under her. "I'm really happy to see you too, but people might get the wrong idea with you on my lap like this." They both laughed and Kim moved to the seat beside him.
"Sorry about that. I just haven't seen you in ages. How have you been?"
"It's ok. I've been pretty good. What about you?"
Kim hesitated a moment. "I've been.. alright. Same ol', same ol', you know?"
"Yeah." Adam began sensing her anxiety. "Well let's get going. I have a surprise for you tonight." He grinned evilly.
"Adam...Adam I don't like that look from you. What are you planning?"
"If I told you it wouldn't be a surprise. Come on." He helped her up.
"Oh, alright." She threw her hands up in the air. "Thanks again for letting me stay with you."
"Hey no problem. That's what brothers are for." Kim gave him a peck on the cheek and they both started towards the parking garage.
~*5:30*~
Adam and Kim walked into his apartment with a sigh. Traffic had been horrible on the way from the airport.
"You can go put your stuff in my room Kim. I'm going to sleep here on the sofa."
"Oh no! I couldn't do that to you. I'll take the couch Adam. I don't want to put you out any more."
"Kim..."
"Adam..."
"How about this, we can switch off with the bed."
"Hmm, fine. As long as you're sure."
"Good. Now that that's done, pack your bag for the weekend. We have to be there in half an hour."
"Be where?"
"You'll see."
"Please-"
"Nope, you've got to wait."
"Well I'll just bring my backpack. It's all I have."
"Yeah I meant to ask you about that.."
"Well don't." She said quickly. Then smiled back at him. "Just not now."
"Alright. Let's get going then."
Once in the car, Adam pulled a piece of cloth out.
"What's that for?" Kim questioned.
"I _told_ you this is a surprise."
"So I've got to be blindfolded??"
"Exactly."
"When did you become so evil?"
"Oh I don't know..." he grinned and handed her the cloth.
"Fine." She said as she tied it around her eyes. "I can't see, but I'll get you back for this."
"I bet you will. Kill me in my sleep perhaps?" They both laughed.
~**~
Adam pulled into the parking lot and noticed that everyone else was already there. He picked up his cell phone, dialed Aisha's cell number, let it ring once, and then hung up. He got out of the car and walked around to Kim's door.
"We're here." Adam announced as he helped Kim out.
~*Meanwhile*~
Aisha was sitting in a chair laughing with Tommy, Billy, Rocky, and Kat as Billy retold the Pachinko story to Kat. Her cell phone suddenly rang once and then stopped. She knew that was the sign that Adam and Kim were there.
"Tommy" She got up and tugged his arm. "I want to talk to you."
"Umm...sure 'Sha" Tommy replied, obviously confused, as he followed her.
