Wishes Do Come True

~ ~ ~ Christmas Eve, 11:57pm ~ ~ ~

Tommy groaned as he laid in bed , staring up at the ceiling as the snow poured down out of the sky.

"I have blizzards!!!" he said sharply, feeling miserable. It had been snowing for 3 days straight, and thanks to the weather, every airport within 200 miles, had been shut down. "This isn't fair! Kimberly is supposed to be home for Christmas, and now she's stuck in Florida! Gosh, I hate this stupid holiday!!!" Tommy looked at the clock as it flipped to read 11:58pm. "I need cocoa . . . he moaned as he miserably climbed out of bed, and headed for the kitchen. "Oh great! Midnight carolers!" he groaned as the doorbell rang. Tommy slowly moved down the stairs , rolling his eyes as he neared the front door. The doorbell rang again as he got closer. "I hate carolers, I hate snow, and I hate Christmas!" he mumbled as he reached the door, and started to unlatch the lock. "Sing if you must, but keep it down because my sister is . . . . . . . ." Tommy started as he opened the door, but his voice caught in his throat.

"Sleeping? She should be!" a pleasant voice said, with a smile.

" . . . . . . . . . Kimberly!" Tommy said throwing his arms around the woman standing in front of him.

"Merry Christmas Tommy!" she said hugging him back as a tear escaped her eyes.

" . . . . . . . . . Kimberly . . . . . I'm so glad you're here! I didn't think I'd see you!"

"I didn't think so either. But I wanted to be here so bad, I called every cab company in Nevada, until I found one that would go out in the blizzard . . . I'm sorry its so late, but the weather is so bad, and the drive took forever . . . . ." Kimberly's voice trailed off as Tommy put a finger to her lips, and kissed her.

"Kimberly!" a cheerful voice said from behind Tommy.

"I thought I heard your voice! Welcome home Sweetie!" Mrs. Oliver said as she walked down the stairs with her husband.

"Hi! Merry Christmas!" Kimberly said cheerfully, pulling away from Tommy, and smiling at his parents.

"You must be freezing! Come inside!" Mr. Oliver told her. "Here, I'll get those." he said as Kimberly reached for her bags.

"Hi Honey! How are you?" Christine asked as she hugged Kimberly.

"Great now that I'm finally home!"

"How'd you manage to get a flight? I thought all the airports were closed?"

"They are! But I called every cab company is Las Vegas until I found one that was crazy enough to brave the storm!"

"Well we're glad you're here!" Mr. Oliver said giving he a hug. "Christmas just wouldn't be the same without you!"

"You must be starved! Come into the kitchen and I'll find you something to eat." Christine told her.

"Thanks, but you don't have to do that."

"Yes I do! Come on Sweetheart, let's go get you warmed up while Thomas and Daniel take your things upstairs."

"Here, let me take your coat." Daniel offered as Kimberly began to unbutton her coat, and remove her scarf and gloves.

"Come with me Sweetie, I wanna her all about life in Florida!" Christine said as she put her arm around Kimberly, and led her into the kitchen.

"Tommy . . . . ." Kimberly said softly, standing up from her stool at the counter, and holding her arms out for her boyfriend as he entered the kitchen a couple minutes later. Tommy smiled as he moved closer, and wrapped her tightly in his arms.

" . . . . . I've missed you sooooo much!" he said as he hugged her tight. "I'm so glad you're here!"

"I've missed you too. Merry Christmas Baby!" she said as Tommy loosened his arms a little bit, and moved to kiss her.

"I guess wishes really do come true!" Mr. Oliver said as he joined the group in the kitchen a minute later.

"Yes they do!" Tommy agreed as he pulled away smiling.

"Here's your sandwich Sweetheart." Christine said setting a plate on the counter. "Tommy, why don't you three go into the livingroom and start a fire. I'll bring you some cocoa when its ready."

"Thanks Christine!" Kimberly said sweetly, then followed the Oliver men out to the livingroom.

A few hours later, Kimberly laid in bed, wrapped tightly in Tommy's arms.

"You warm enough?" Tommy asked as he kissed the top of her head.

"I'm perfect . . ." she answered softly as she gently moved her hand over Tommy's bare chest.

"You're Amazing, you know that?" Kimberly smiled as Tommy ran his fingers through her hair. "You're not only amazing, but beautiful, and warm, compassionate, gentle, graceful . . . . . You've got that heart stopping killer smile, gorgeous sparkling eyes, and the most angelic voice in the world . . . . ."

" . . . . . Tommy . . . . ." Kimberly said softly.

" . . . . . Did I mention how incredibly sexy you are? . . . . ." Kimberly blushed as Tommy kissed her forehead, then tilted her head up and gently kissed her lips. " . . . . . How'd I ever get so lucky? . . . . ." Tommy asked when he finally pulled away.

"What time is it?" Kimberly asked with a yawn.

"3:21. You look exhausted . . ."

"I'm ok . . . . ."

"We should get some sleep. AnneMarie will be up in a few hours." Tommy said kissing the top of her head again. "Are you sure you're warm enough?"

"As long as you hold me close, I am . . ."

"I love you Kimberly." he said as he tightened his arms around her.

"I love you too Tommy." she said kissing him gently then snuggling into his arms, and drifting off to sleep.
