Tommy picked up Kim's head and said, "Kim?" He shook her a little, "Kim? Are you OK?"
Kim slowly opened her eyes, "Tommy? Is it really you?"
Tommy smiled, "Yeah, Beautiful it's me." Kim blushed a little, as he helped her to her feet and they walked over to the porch swing. "What are you doing here?" He said as they sat down.
"Well, um, I just moved to the house across the road and I was curious at who lived up here."
"Really, that's great!"
Kim smiled, "So, um, what are you doing nowadays?"
"I'm going to be a science teacher at Reefside High."
"Your kidding?"
"No, I'm not."
"Your not going to believe this but I'm going to be a gym teacher at Reefside."
"Really."
"Yeah."
They both sat there in silence for the next few moments, Tommy looked over at Herbie and said, "Nice car."
"Thanks, it belonged to my Uncle Jim," said Kim. They sat in silence for a few more moments. "Tommy, about the letter…"
"Kim…"
"We need to talk about it."
"OK. Was there really another guy?"
"Yes, he was a teammate of mine. His name was Chris."
"How long did it last?"
"He broke up with me a couple of months after the Pan-Globals. He never told me why, but I think he was jealous of me."
"Jealous?"
"Well, I won 3 gold medals and he didn't even win one. And, I got all these endorsement deals, which pretty much paid for my college. And, I think he just couldn't take it. You know, Tommy, I didn't even want to write that stupid letter. My roommate, Leah, said I should break it off with you, and back then, I thought she was right. So I wrote it. Then, I mailed it, and I realized it was a mistake. But, it was too late… Do you still have it?"
"Believe it or not, yes I do. I don't know why I kept it."
"Do you know where it is?"
"Yeah, I have it in a strong box upstairs."
"Can you get it for me?"
"OK," said Tommy, in a sort of unsure tone of voice, then he went upstairs and a few minutes later he came back down with it and handed it to her. She took it and stood up. Tommy sat back down and watched as Kimberly opened the envelope and started to read over the 'Dear John' letter she had written to him.
She walked away from him as she read it. Then, she turned back around and looked at him. He saw tears in her eyes. Then, she spoke, "There is one thing I have wanted to do since I wrote this fucking letter…" then she started ripping the letter up. As she ripped up the letter, she stared to cry harder, "I hate Chris! I hate Leah! I hate…" Then she fell to her knees, put her hands to her face, and continued to cry. Tommy saw this, got up, walked over to her, kneeled next to her, and put his arms around her. Then, she put her arms around him, and buried her head in his side, "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, Tommy!"
He ran his fingers through her hair, "Shhh, it's OK."
She looked at the torn up pieces of paper and threw them on the porch, "I never loved you like a brother! I loved you with all my heart and soul! I still love you!"
Tommy couldn't believe it, she still love him! After almost 9 years, she still loved him! But, did he still love her? He thought for a moment, then he smiled, looked down at Kim and said, "I love you, too."
She looked up to him, then they kissed, their first kiss in almost 9 years. They could both tell, the spark was still there. After a few minutes, they stopped and looked at each other, and Kim said, "Wow." Tommy smiled, then Kim said, "Now what?"
"I think we should take it slow," he said.
"I think your right," she said, as she stood up and wiped the tears from her eyes, "Well, I better be going."
"OK. I'll see you at school tomorrow," he said, then he kissed her again, and gave her a big hug, "I love you, Beautiful."
"I love you, too, Handsome," said Kim, then she walked toward Herbie, got in and drove down the driveway.
The next morning, Conner McKnight, the soccer star of Reefside High, was sitting at a stop light when Kim pulled up next to him in Herbie. He looked over at her and revved his engine a little bit. Kim heard him rev the engine and she looked over at him. He smiled at her. She smiled back, then she turned back toward the intersection and said, "You know what to do, Herbie." She made sure her seatbelt was tight and she gripped the steering wheel tightly. When, the light turned green Herbie popped a wheelie and took off down the road like a bullet shot out of a gun. Conner just sat there with his jaw dropped. Kim laughed and said, "OK, Herbie, slow it down or else I'm going to get a ticket."
A short time later, Kim pulled into in teacher's parking lot. She grabbed her gym bag and started to walk toward the school. As she was walking down the hall, she wasn't looking where she was going and she ran in to a female student, knocking them both to the ground, "Oh, I'm sorry," said Kim, as she stood up and helped the student up.
The student looked at Kim, smiled and said, "That's all right."
"I'm Kimberly Hart. I'm the new gym teacher."
"It's nice to meet you Ms. Hart," said the student, "I'm Kira Ford."
"Nice to meet you too, Kira," Kim saw the guitar that Kira was holding, "I hope I didn't break your guitar."
Kira gave it the once over, "No, it looks OK."
"Are you any good?"
Kira nodded, "Yea, pretty good," Just then the bell rang, "I've got to get to class. See you later, Ms. Hart."
"Bye, Kira."
Later that day, during her free period, Kim decided to take a walk outside. As she was walking she heard singing, it sounded good. She walked in the direction of the singing and saw Kira sitting on a picnic table singing and playing her guitar. There was a small group of students sitting on the ground listening to her singing. "She's really good," Kim said to herself, "about as good as I was at her age"
When Kira finished, Principal Randall along with Conner walked up next to her and Principal Randall said, "Ms. Ford, I'm afraid you need written permission to perform on school grounds. Follow me."
Kira stopped her and said, "Did you know that students who play an instrument have a 50% greater chance of getting into college?"
Principal Randall looked over her glasses at Kira, "Your not really college material, now are you?" Both Kira's and Kim's jaw dropped upon hearing this. Just then, the sprinklers went off, soaking just about everyone, including Kim.
Kim walked into her new office, closed the door and her blinds, and took a change of clothes and a towel out of her gym bag. She took off all her clothes and started to dry off. As she dried herself off , she started humming the tune of the song that Kira was singing. Then, Tommy came in, "Hey, Beautiful."
Kim screamed and almost dropped her towel, she quickly covered herself, "AAAH! TOMMY! GET OUT OF HERE!"
Tommy closed the door a little and tried to keep himself from laughing, "What are you doing?"
"If you must know," said Kim, as she started to get dressed again, "When I was outside the sprinklers went off and I got soaked."
"Oh."
She finished dressing and said, "OK, you can come now." Tommy walked in, "And, the next time you want to come in my office knock!"
"OK," said Tommy, as he walked over to her and gave her a kiss.
"So, what did you want?"
"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to come with me to a museum outside town after school."
"Thanks, but I still have a lot of unpacking to do."
"OK, I understand. How about dinner on Friday night? We'll celebrate our survival of the first week of school."
"You've got it," said Kim, just then the bell rang, "Got to go."
"Me too," said Tommy, they kissed and then Tommy went back to his classroom and Kim headed toward the gym.
