Hi guys, here's the next chapter, but I have to admit I'm a little stuck. Any ideas? Even if you don't have any please review, and as always thanks for reading.
When Tommy reached the top of the stairs the unconscious mass in his arms still felt as light as a feather. When Kimberly originally collapsed on his living room floor he immediately rushed to her aid. After yelling her name many times and lightly tapping her face he realized that she was out cold. He figured it was due to the stress of her day, including Goldar. Little did he know the woman was perfectly fine and just as conscious as he was.
Tommy finally laid her down on his bed making sure that her head was comfortably cradled in his pillow. Kimberly immediately smelled the familiar scent of Tommy on the linens. She almost smiled to herself but then remembered that he was watching her. She began to realize that this whole fainting thing could work in her favor even better than her original plan, which really wasn't planned. She'd had no strategy to seduce her ex-boyfriend, she just figured she'd flirt with him and eventually he would succumb to her kiss. In retrospect it was a horrible idea considering how platonic their relationship had been earlier that day. But now she could act as loopy and uncharacteristic as she wanted because he would just figure she had a concussion or something.
Suddenly the weight on the bed Kimberly laid on became lighter and she realized that Tommy had stood up, perhaps to go call for help, or worse the other Rangers. It was time to wake up. As her eyes opened slowly, she made the typical moaning sound she always heard on TV whenever someone woke up. Tommy was already halfway out the door but heard her and turned around.
"Kim, are you okay?" he asked kneeling at the bedside.
'Perfect' thought Kim, 'this is going to be even easier than I thought, he's feeling guilty.'
"Um, I think so," she choked out blinking her eyes as they adjusted to the light generated by the lamp next to her. "What happened?" she asked alarmed.
"You must have fainted," replied Tommy, "one minute you were talking just fine and then the next you were down on the ground," he frowned, still blaming himself for dragging Kimberly into this mess.
"How long was I out?" she asked.
"I'd say a few minutes, not long," he answered.
'Enough small talk Kimberly,' she thought to herself, 'it's time to take care of business and get this over with.'
"Thank you for being so good to me Tommy," she began as she forced her eyes to produce water. "I don't deserve any of this after what I did to you. I was so stupid," she cursed herself.
"Whoa Kim, slow down," interrupted Tommy, "it was a long time ago and I'm fine, really." He silently hoped she couldn't tell that he was lying through his teeth.
"But you don't even know the worst part," Kimberly continued, prodding his curiosity.
"What's that?" asked Tommy slowly, not sure if he wanted to know the worst part.
"I'm still really attracted to you," admitted Kimberly as her eyes wandered to his wrist where the prize rested in the form of the bracelet, which contained the black dino gem.
That was all Tommy ever wanted to hear; yet he couldn't enjoy it because he knew the woman was not in her sane mind.
"You must have hit your head on the floor or something Kim," he assured her, "maybe you better just get some sleep before you say something you will probably regret in the morning."
"I won't regret it Tommy," she protested raising herself to his level with her arms. "I really mean it, I think I still love you," her voice faded into a whisper and she didn't know why. Kimberly suddenly became very confused as she tried to draw a line between Kimberly Hart and the Evil Pink Ranger. Who was speaking?
Tommy was speechless; he wanted so badly to believe her. As he gazed into her gorgeous hazel brown eyes they began to grow bigger as the women leaned towards him. Tommy knew he should back away but it had been so long and he had missed her and this so much. Before he could fight it she had already captured him in a kiss. The kiss seemed to last forever in fact Tommy almost forgot to breathe in between.
In Kimberly's head she couldn't really remember what in the world she was doing in Tommy Oliver's bed. She knew she'd had a pretty good reason yet all that she could think of was Tommy and how wonderful it felt to kiss him again. Suddenly she felt an enormous weight cover her body, it was Tommy. As he lay on top of her he began to explore her with his hands, her hair, the soft skin on her face. Suddenly something cold rubbed against her cheek and she remembered why she was there, the bracelet.
She had to get the bracelet for Lord Zedd, her master. What in the hell came over her? She didn't love this man, she didn't even need this man; he was nobody to her. She was here on a mission and it was her job to complete it. She immediately began to kiss him more forcefully hoping that her wandering hands would be disregarded in the midst of her aggressiveness. Soon she had his left hand in her right hand and she reached for the lamp and flipped off the switch.
It took quite some time for her to figure out how the bracelet on his wrist operated. It was not easy paying attention to the man's wrist when she would much rather be paying attention to the rest of him. But, he didn't seem to notice the attention she was giving his left arm. Finally as their lips parted, so did the clasp on the bracelet, and it was hers.
Tommy immediately tightened his grip on her body realizing that she had just obtained his bracelet.
'Sun of a…' thought Kimberly. How was she going to get out of this one, literally?
"What are you doing," he questioned very seriously looking into her eyes with the help of little moonlight, which trickled in through the white curtains.
Suddenly Kimberly's eyes began to glow bright pink as a vindictive grin grew across her face. "Getting rid of you," she answered wickedly. She was still securely in his grasp but the gig was up and she would soon be free.
Tommy's eyes grew wide in horror. "You're the Evil Pink Ranger," he stated to her and to him self, it was too fresh to feel real.
"That's right handsome, and you used to be the Black Ranger," she teased.
He suddenly grabbed her right hand, which contained the bracelet, and although he was much stronger than she, and all of his weight was pinning down the rest of her body he still didn't have a prayer. Kimberly's body began to grow warm underneath him and eventually became scorching hot, forcing him to release her and get on his own two feet. By then she too was standing up on the other side of the bed.
"It's been fun sweetie, really," she giggled as she dangled the bracelet in her hand. "Don't be so disappointed, it's not you it's me," she erupted into a fit of laughter.
"Kimberly, don't do this!" yelled Tommy, keeping his distance.
"Do what?" she asked seriously. "This?" she then pulled out her morpher and within seconds she was transformed into the Evil Pink Ranger.
