No intro this time. Just straight to the story. Okay, there's something
in this chapter that I personally think would work, but can't find anyone
else who thinks so. Tell me what you think.
Summary: Trent and Kim go out to eat and end up spending some tine together. Disclaimer: I don't own any of the songs in this story.
Unlucky Hand chapter seven: Not Another Lonely Day
Trent and Kim had decided to go see a short movie at the old theater and then went to an outdoor eating place, though it was winter, that served Root Beer and pretzels.
"This isn't the night I had planned on." Kim said before taking a bite out of a huge pretzel.
"What were your plans?" Trent asked, taking a bite of his own.
"Well, I was going to go home and finish the first book in this series I've been wanting to read. Then go to the library and rent the second." She informed her blonde haired friend.
"You're reading a series of books? I didn't know that." He said realizing he didn't know all that much of his female companion's personal life. "What's it called?"
"It's the Reno Western Saga. The next book is called 'Rimrock'." She informed him. "Yeah, Trent, I was thinking, if we want to catch this guy before he gets any more serious and kills Gage or Sydney, we need to think of a way to do that, right?"
"Right."
"Now, I had this idea. It might be a little risky, but I think it'll work." She went on to describe her plan while he listened carefully, enjoying the sound of her voice in hi ears.
"That just might work, Kim. But let's tell them tomorrow. She's just so shaken up. And anyway, it's almost midnight." He said starting the engine.
"Are you serious?" She checked her watch.
"As a heart attack." He flashed a smile at her as they pulled onto the street.
They drove most of the way back in silence. He had promised to pick her up in the morning since he had kept her out so late. He pulled in front of her building.
"I don't think I've ever seen your place." He commented out of nowhere.
"Really? Well, come on in." She said half pulling him through the door after he had walked her to her room.
"Wow!" he said glancing around. "This is nice." She took him by the hand and led him around. When they finished, the pot of coffee she had put on when they first came in was ready.
"Want some?" she offered, going into the kitchen.
"Sure." He followed her in. "I thought that was very sweet of Gage comforting Sydney like that in the office."
"Me, too. I can't believe they can't see it. I mean how hard is it," she said turning to hand him the coffee. "for people to see that they belong together." She nearly chocked on her words when she met his stare.
"Well," he said as she moved passed him into the living room, "maybe they just can't see it yet. Do you have any Christmas music?"
"Yeah. Right there." She pointed to a large stack of tapes and CDs. "Help yourself."
He laid his jacket down, and picked up the stack of CDs. Flipping through them he found an old classic. He put it in the CD player and hit play. The sweet vocal stylings of Brenda Lee filled the room.
"You like this album, too!" Kim exclaimed.
"Yeah. It's so...fun." He went and sat down by her on the couch. "When I was a kid..."
"When?" she interrupted.
He laughed and started again. "When I was a kid, we would put these songs on and listen to them."
The next two hours, they swapped storied of their Christmases as kids. All of a sudden Kim screamed and started singing and dancing to the song playing.
"It's Christmas eve, and snow is on the ground, Mistletoe and holly all around.
Yes all the world is happy, but since you went away. My Christmas will be just another
lonely day. Come on, Trent." She grabbed him and the two began dancing again. She sang the next verse before he sat down and got a drink of coffee.
"I had a lonely September, October, November, too. But December is twice as lonely
without you. For soon it will be time for Santa Claus. And surely he
will bring you back because. Without you here beside me my world will
be so gray. And Christmas will be just another lonely day."
As the song was ending, Trent went over and put in another CD.
When her song ended, she watched him as he skipped to the sixth song.
He walked over to her, took her hands and said, "This is one of my
favorites."
As the song played, they started to slow dance.
What makes this season magical, is what made my dream come true.
Just seeing you. To be here with you. Oh this Christmas time. Is the
best one ever. The greatest gift in life in life is you and me together.
And I thank heaven for sending you here tonight. This Christmas time.
They kept swaying to the music. About the middle of the second verse he began to sing along.
"The one thing I wish for came true when you walked on.
To hear you laugh again. To see you smile again. Oh this
Christmas time. Is the best one ever. The greatest gift in
life. Is you and me together. And I thank heaven for sending
you here tonight. Oh this Christmas time."
He sand along until the song ended, and when it did, the clock chimed announcing three o'clock.
"Wow. I'd better get home. We have a long day of planning tomorrow." He said as they walked to the door.
"I had a lot fun." Kim said hoping that the sound in her voice begging him to stay could not be heard. "We should do it again. Soon. Just the two of us." She was now playing with his jacket, zipping it the rest of the way up and turning down his collar.
"Yeah. I had a lot of fun just sitting and talking and seeing the movie." He stared into her eyes. He could feel the warmth from them hitting his face. "See you tomorrow, Kim." He said as he turned to leave. 'Just do it.' a voice told him. She hadn't even got the door closed when he pushed it open, stepped in, and kissed he softly on the lips. "Merry Christmas." Was all he said before he headed back down the hallway.
End chapter seven. Eight coming. Okay, what do you think. I've always thought Trent and Kim made a cute couple. I don't know, don't ask (unless you want to). This chapter was mainly about them. The next is the walkers party. Well, I hope you've enjoyed it so far. I kinda flip back and forth between G&S and T&K in this story. Those of you that don't t&k belong together, you can tell me so just keep it in the PG range, please? Well, on to the next chapter. Later! *^_^*
