Thank you for all the wonderful reviews. Most of you are asking me to hurry for the next chapters and I am trying. Work and the Golden Globes kinda got in the way. I hope that this is going to keep being a pleasure to work on and I pray that you enjoy.

Disclaimer: I know that all characters belong to Saban and Hollywood but I just want to send out the thanks to those folks that are letting me play with them.

Jason killed the engine and sat staring up at the dark apartment. Unable to wake Kimberly up he had been forced to bring her to his own 'bachelor pad'. Thankful that he had come back to apartment to tidy up before going to the cliffs to catch the sunset, Jason unlocked the door and flipped a few lights on. He quickly turned down the blankets to the guest bed then went back out to his red Ford F150 for Kim. Kimberly remained in a troubled sleep as he took her in his arms and carried her to the comfort of a soft bed.

"No!" she mumbled, jerking away from the friendly touch of his hand. Jason shook his head and sat down on the edge of the bed. He wondered what could have happened in the six months since he had saw her last to make her want to end her life. The thought of her being pushed to the point of suicide from the lack of communications between people was a bit much. Then again no one really understands why people end their own lives. He thought back to the night before he left for the piece conference and how she had told him that friendships like theirs were meant to last forever. Yes Jason remembered that night all to well.

"Hey Jason" Kim had chirped in a forced happiness as she entered his room. Jason looked up for his packing and grumbled a hello. Kim gasped when she had seen his face. It looked as if Jason had been crying for hours. His eyes were blood shot and his face was puffy and streaked. She had immediately gone to him, wrapping her arms around him. He held tight to her as he once again found himself crying. Kim had gently stroked his back and periodically kissed his forehead.

"I can't do it Kim. I was wrong in joining the peace conference. I don't want to leave you guys. I have this horrible feeling that we are going to grow apart and lose touch and I can't bear to think of losing all the great friendships that I have here."

Kim had taken his face in her hands and looked deep into his wild eyes. For a moment she had said nothing then she began in a soft commanding tone that Jason had never heard her use. "Don't ever worry about losing me as your friend. I will always be here for you Jason Lee Scott. There is a little thing called 'Friends Forever' and that is what we will be." Her voice had begun to shake as she went on, tears forming in her own eyes. "You have always been there for me as my friend and brother, leader and team mate. I will always be here and I don't ever want to here you question that again."

" I am going to miss you Kim, more than you know." He had whispered.

They had sat in the warmth of each other company that night as he packed talking about the past years of their life, the laughter and tears, boyfriends and girlfriends and what the future might hold for them. She had gotten up to leave, wrapped him in a hug and told him something that he had never forgotten.

"We will always be there for each other, no matter what." Jason had held tight to her small frame and whispered a soft farewell."

"I promise," he said as she had moved to the door. "Goodbye Kim"

"No, not goodbye Jason, just good night. Never say goodbye because those are forever."

Jason was jerked out of his memories by Kim's screaming. She was covered in sweat and tossing about the bed in the clutches of some horrible nightmare.

"No! Stop! Please I'm sorry! No! Help!" Jason began to softly shake her calling her name worried that no matter what her tried he was unable to wake her. Her screaming had stopping yet now he cringed at the helpless pleas that were softly coming from her. "Somebody please help me. No… please…stop..your..hurting me.

"Kim" Jason screamed pulling her thrashing form into his arms. Relief flooded though him when her eyes popped open yet it was quickly washed away as she clutched him crying. Her whole body was wracked with great sobs and he felt that she was holding on for dear life.

"What was that Kim" he whispered hoping that she would open up to him.

"A horrible event in my life that I seem to always be reliving in my dreams"

"What!?!" he cried sitting back so he could see her face. "That was real. You were shouting for something to stop. "Who and what has happened to you."

Kim stood up and looked around then turned back to Jason.

"Let's go for a walk and I will try to explain what is haunting me Jason." Jason stood up and walked with her to the door and out into the warm summer night. They walked quietly to the park where they had fought many of Zedd and Rita's monsters.

"It's a really long story Jase." She said stopping and looking out over the lake.

He watched her begin to wring her hands in the eerie moonlight.

"I have time"

"There never was another guy." She whispered.

"Huh?"

"I lied to Tommy in that letter. There never was another guy. I told him that, knowing that my secret would be safe and all of my friends would never know the real truth. I knew that they would never give my reasons a second thought. I also knew that Tommy could then be with Kat and they would all soon forget about me. All because I never wanted them to find out."

"Find out about what Kim?" Jason asked as she diverted her gaze from his.

"I was raped Jason."

"What!" Jason was stunned and even though Kim could not tell his face had gone white with pain and anger."

"That isn't the half of it" Kim said placing a hand on his flexing muscles. "I found out I was pregnant a month later and I thought about having an abortion. I felt like I was dying inside and I didn't want the others to know that I had been hurt like that. A few days before I had to decide whether or not to have the innocent life inside me terminated I miscarried. I was alone and afraid but I didn't want Tommy to have to think about me being with another man every time that he looked at me so I kept it a secret. Now I dream about it every night. The last three weeks have been like walking in my nightmares. I feel like I can never wake up. I am sorry that I hurt Tommy and I regret losing him. I miss Trini and I was almost completely lost without you. We have all drifted apart and they thought of losing all of the people I once loved is more than I can bear."

"Kim I wish you would have told me about this when it had happened." Jason said pulling her into his arms. "I would have been there right beside you.

"I thought you would think that I was easy and careless" Kim whispered into his shirt"

"Kim" he said putting her at arms reach so he could look into her eyes and let her know that he really meant what he was saying. "You were hurt and abused. I would never think you were easy. I will never let anyone hurt you again because I promised once that we would be friends forever and that means that we stick together."

"There is no such thing as the term 'Friends Forever'" she whispered looking down at the ground. "Look Jase, I have to get going home. Thank you for being there and I am glad your back." With that she turned and ran off into the night.

"Kim wait!" he shouted into the darkness she had disappeared into. There has to be away to get us back to the friendships we had even if they would be a little different. We all seem to still need the comfort of each other's company.
