As they get back to the hideout, Kim says to Drew, "So this is where you guys were hiding?"
"Yeah. Pretty bad huh? Wanna come in?" Everyone walks in except for Kim and Drew.
Kim looks around and likes what she sees. "I'd live to come in. This isn't a bad place at all. It's cozy."
"Well thank you Ms. Possible." Drew says without any hint of sarcasm.
Kim says in the nicest voice, "You can call me Kim Drew. You're welcome. To be quite honest, I've never really thought you were all that evil. I just mean that I could see you as helping people more than hurting them."
"Well Kim, there are shades of gray between good and evil. Some of us are heroes in training like Eddie and Jason and some of us are villains in training." Drew thinks to himself 'Maybe I was never meant for world domination.'
"Eddie and Jason are great guys." Kim says, all the while thinking about Eddie.
"Indeed they are. Especially Eddie. He's one of the few people that have seemed to genuinely care about my well-being." Drew thinks about Eddie's kind words to him when he needed them most.
"Well, that's Eddie for you." Kim smiles as she is very proud of Eddie at the present moment.
"Yeah, it is indeed." Drew wonders what to say next but can't find any more words.
"I hope you and Sheila end up happy Drew. Everyone deserves to be happy." Drew smiles at Kim's kind words.
"Well, thank you." Drew hugs Kim, something he NEVER thought he would let happen under his own free will.
Kim and Drew head into the house. Once inside, Eddie gets Drew and Sheila alone for a moment. "Guys, there's something I need to tell you."
"I think I know." Drew says.
"Me too." Sheila adds.
"You do?" Eddie asks, both ashamed and surprised.
"Yes." Drew and Sheila both say together. Drew leans in and whispers in Eddie's left ear, "It's a good thing you called Kim. It was the RIGHT thing to do."
Eddie is truly surprised now. "Wow guys. I'm so sorry I went behind your backs like that. I do believe you are both smarter than anyone gives you credit for."
"Thanks." Drew and Sheila tell Eddie. Sheila says, "Its all right Eddie," as she gives Eddie a hug.
Drew slowly walks over to Ron and says, "I'm sorry for all of the buffoon comments. I figured if you thought you were a buffoon like myself, it might make me feel a little better about myself."
"It's cool man. The Ron-man holds no grudges." Ron and Drew shake each other's hand.
At seeing this, Eddie and Kim go up to Eddie's room to talk privately.
"Kim, could I ask you something?" Kim can tell Eddie seems a little nervous.
"Of course." Kim and Eddie sit down on Eddie's bed as he asks his question.
"Why are you being so nice to me after what I did to you? Trying to hurt you and all." Eddie looks down still ashamed of himself.
"I hurt you much worse Eddie. Physical wounds heal but emotional wounds can last a lifetime, which is what we've spent together, along with Ron and Jason. If we're going to continue with our lives together, in any capacity, then I've got to show you I'll always be there for you. I'm not scared of you only because I know you'd never hurt another living being without provocation." Kim gently kisses Eddie's cheek.
"Thanks Kim. I'd never hurt anything…..not even spiders although I hate them so much! ACK! Man, how I hate those things!" Eddie squirms a little at the mention of spiders.
Kim laughs and says, "I know."
"Well, whatcha doing tomorrow?" Eddie asks, hoping that he and Kim can spend some time together without the worry of hurting Drew and Sheila's feelings.
"I'm picking up my mom and dad at the airport. I told my dad you wanted to talk to him about us Eddie. He said he doesn't like the idea of me dating yet, but if he had to let me date anyone, it would be you!" This makes both Kim and Eddie cheer up and smile.
Eddie is very excited now. "Sweet! I won't betray his trust in me. I know how important you are to him. You're important to me too."
"I know you won't. I've got to get back home Eddie. Sorry." Eddie can tell Kim is sad because she has to leave.
"It's ok." Eddie kisses Kim's cheek to let her know it truly is ok.
As Eddie escorts Kim downstairs, Sheila is at the front door holding the painting. She says to Kim, "Please take this back for us Kimmie. Please."
"Sure. C'mon Ron, let's go home and get some sleep. You four should also." Kim and Ron wave good-bye to the others.
All the others can do in return is wave back.
The next morning Kim picks up her parents, Ron's parents, Eddie's parents, and Jason's parents from the airport and drops them off at their respective homes. When Kim and her parents get home she calls Eddie up.
"Eddie, my parents are home. Wanna come over and talk to them?" Eddie can tell Kim is excited.
"Are you sure now's the time? Your parents did just get home ya know?" Eddie says, trying to buy himself some time so he can wake up.
"Yea, I know, but I'm so excited!" Kim quickly asks her parents if Eddie can come over so they can have their 'little talk'. Her parents quickly say, 'Sure Kimmie but wait until after we eat breakfast.'
"Yes Eddie. It's ok for you to come over. Get here a.s.a.p.!" If Eddie thought Kim was as excited as she could ever be five seconds ago, he was terribly mistaken.
"Ok, ok, ok! Keep your panties on ok Kim……….on second thought…." Eddie says with a huge grin.
"Hey! Such a naughty boy! What am I going to do with you?" Kim asks jokingly.
"I don't know. I'm on my way though." Eddie says, joking back.
"Ok. Thank you Eddie!" Kim and Eddie both hang up.
Eddie gets dressed, leaves and quickly drives over to Kim's house. The tweebs are watching TV when Eddie rings the doorbell. Kim's parents, James and Jean, ask everyone to meet in the living room. Jean starts off with asking Eddie how he's been to which he says, "Good, thank you."
"Now, down to business." James says, in a fatherly voice. "How do you boys feel about Eddie being Kim's boyfriend?"
"I'd say it's about time." Jim says.
"He's already like a big brother to us so I'm cool with it." Tim adds.
Jean adds, "I think you will treat my daughter with the love and respect she deserves and I know we all feel that way Eddie."
"Well, thank you Mrs. Dr. P. How about you Mr. Dr. P.?" Eddie wonders if he should be at least a little bit scared of what Mr. Possible will say.
"I'm still not too sure about my little Kimmie-cub dating but I know she's growing up and there's nothing I can do about it. I also know, deep down, you'll treat her very well. But, I will tell you this…..if I ever hear of you hurting my daughter in any way from this point on, you will pay the consequences. You're the last person I want to threaten Eddie, but my family is my life. Do I make myself clear?" Eddie knows Mr. Possible is serious by the look in his eyes.
"Of course sir." Eddie says, not at all afraid of Mr. Possible's threat. "You've got nothing to worry about sir. She's the most important person in my life and I'd do anything to make her happy."
"I know Eddie." Mr. Possible smiles a little bit. It's enough of a smile for the whole room to smile in return.
"So, do her and I have your blessing sir?" Eddie already knows the answer, but wants to make sure anyway.
"Yes, you do." Kim jumps up, and before anyone knows it, hugs and kissed her dad. she says, "Thank you so much Dad! I love you!"
Mr. Possible returns his daughter's hug and says, "You're welcome Kimmie. I love you too."
Kim thanks her mom and brothers for supporting her and Eddie's newfound relationship.
"We're gonna go talk to Eddie's parents now ok? Is that ok Mom?" Kim hopes it is.
"Sure Kimmie. We've got some catching up to do though so hurry home soon ok." Jean says to her daughter.
"I will Dad. See ya soon ok." Kim hugs her parents bye.
Kim and Eddie leave to his parents' house where Eddie and his parents catch up with what's been happening lately (except telling them he was bad for a brief time). Kim and Eddie tell his parents that they are a couple now, to which his parents could only say, "It's about time. Congratulations. Good luck you two crazy kids in love."
ONE MONTH LATER…………
July 15th, 2004
Whassup notebook? Well, I am! It's been a while. Let me update ya. Kim and I have been dating for a month now! Best month of my life. We had a wonderful Fourth of July. No sex though, which was ok by me. I want the time to be perfect when we have our first time. I guess I'm old fashioned like that. We've been pretty inseparable for the time we've been dating.
Well, Brick Flagg and Monkey Boy are in jail. Those fucking bastards! One night, two weeks ago, Ron and I were chilling and having a little walk so Rufus and Renee could be together when we heard this scream. We ran to see who it was. When we got there, we see Prick (that's my nickname for Flagg now) and Monkey Boy beating Tara. Ron and I quickly beat the living shit out of those two perverts. Ron's been waiting for his revenge on Monkey Boy for a long time now and I'm glad he finally got it! He told me the next day that my help with his training made all the difference. Well, anyways, we turned them in to the police and Tara pressed charges. They both got 20-40 years for sexual assault. In Middleton, it's a horrible crime. It's just as bad as rape itself. I hear they've got adjoining cells. I also hear that Prick's bunk mate us a big black guy named Bruno who is doing life without parole for murder. Monkey Boy's roomy is an Italian mob boss who is doing life without parole for an assassination attempt on some high-ranking official of the American government. His name is Legs. I don't know why that's his name but oh well. I'm not the one who has to worry about it! HA! I hope Prick and Monkey Boy are getting the rough treatment…..if you know what I mean. Serves those fuckers right, doing that to Tara and all.
Anyway, Ron and Tara are now dating. I think that's wonderful myself. They're awesome together! It is somewhat strange now though because, last week Yori, Ron's friend from Japan moved here to Middleton. She met Zita Flores and they have quickly become the best of friends. They have their own apartment together.
My parents and I are close again, as are Jason and his. Everybody's been reconnecting lately. Even Drew and Sheila! They're officially together now. It's so sweet to see. Drew is now working for Kim's dad. Of course, we told Dr. P. all about Drew's past. It appears that Dr. P. knew Drew in college. Dr. P. is the most forgiving and compassionate person in the world because he hired Drew in a heartbeat. Sheila took a college equivalency test and passed with very high scores. She's become a certified doctor and now works with Kim's mom. We're keeping them close for their own protection. I don't want someone finding out about their pasts and then trying to hurt them. They truly do mean a lot to me as friends. Drew and Sheila have turned the hideout into a beautiful house. I made the renovations to the house myself for them. One million dollars worth to be exact! Their kitchen has a brand new stove, and the dining room now seats twenty.
Speaking of Drew, I've narrowed the search for his daughter down to Middleton. So that's got him very excited. Monique and Josh are dating. That's the good Josh, not fucking Monkey Boy who's probably getting fucked in the ass right now! That's still funny! Let me wipe the tears of joy from my eyes! Anyways, Donald and Zita are now together also. Jim and Tim finally beat Jason and myself in wrestling. They got so lucky! Making Jason tap out like that! NEVER AGAIN THOUGH! B'WHA HA HA! Jason and Bonnie are still dating. You can't keep those two apart.
We got the record deal! We've already started recording songs. I'm so excited because every one of my friends is involved in the band!
Well, that's all for now! I'll write much sooner next time!
Eddie P.
One day every week, Eddie and Jason spend the night at Drew and Sheila's. The guys stay with them so that they will always have some time together. Tonight just happens to be that night. After conversing for hours, about random stuff, everyone heads to bed.
While in bed, two little monkeys dressed in ninja outfits jump into both Eddie and Jason's rooms but neither knows of the other's situation. The ninjas have cards, which say, 'Wanna learn Tai Shing Pek Kwar with Lord Monty Fiske?' Check one of the following two boxes, Yes or No. Eddie thinks about it for a little bit and checks No. Jason checks a box himself and gives the card back to the monkey with a huge, almost evil like, grin on his face.
The next morning, Eddie is on the computer, as usual, trying to find Drew's daughter and out of nowhere he quickly yells out, "YAHOO!" He runs out of the house to 'see to something' as he put it. Jason goes home to the apartment and hangs out all day.
At ten o'clock that night, Jason was starting to get worried because he hasn't been able to talk to Bonnie all day. Finally he gets a hold of her.
"Hello baby!" Jason is excited to have finally gotten a hold of his girlfriend.
"Hey Jason." Bonnie sounds down for some reason. This worries Jason.
"Is something wrong? You sound sad or something." Jason asks Bonnie. He now starts to worry a little bit.
"I'm ok." Jason doesn't think Bonnie is at all convincing, but won't push the subject.
Jason thinks about what to say next and before long he asks, "Where ya been all day?"
"Just walking around town and thinking." This gets Jason's attention.
"Thinking about what?" Jason asks, wondering why Bonnie seems so distant all of a sudden.
"Just life, like what I want out of it." Jason can tell Bonnie doesn't really feel like talking right now but continues anyway.
"I see. Well you know I'll do anything I can to help you be happy and I want you to remember that ok Bonnie." Jason is trying to cheer up Bonnie but doesn't think its working too well.
"I know Jason and thank you so much. You don't know how much that means to me." Bonnie starts to feel just a little bit better.
"You're welcome baby." Jason can sense Bonnie feels slightly better.
"Well, I'm tired so I'm gonna go to bed. I'll call you tomorrow ok." Bonnie wants to sleep and think.
"Ok. Goodnight Bonnie." Jason knows this conversation is about to end.
"Goodnight Jason. I love you." Bonnie says with feeling.
"I love you too." Jason replies to his girlfriend.
Bonnie hangs up and attempts to go to bed. Jason is concerned why Bonnie seemed so distant. He looks up at the ceiling in his room of the apartment before closing his eyes and going to sleep.
At eleven the same night, Eddie and Kim are talking on the phone.
"Kim, I've done it!" Eddie is as excited as Kim's ever heard him.
Kim is both confused and intrigued. "You've done what?"
"I've found Drew's daughter!" This reinforces Eddie's excitement.
"You have!" Kim sounds happy and excited now also.
"Yes!" Eddie says, not only to reassure Kim but to reassure himself.
"Well, who is she?" Kim can't help but ask.
"I want Drew to meet her first ok? I hope you don't mind that Kim." Eddie says as politely as he can.
"Oh, of course I understand Eddie." Kim is a little bit sad about not being told who Drew's daughter is, but knows she'll find out in a few days time anyway.
"Thanks babe." Eddie is glad that he has such an understanding girlfriend.
"No big." Kim smiles at using one of her catch phrases.
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow ok Kim." Eddie doesn't want the conversation to end, but knows he needs his sleep.
"Ok Eddie. Goodnight. I love you!" Kim can tell that Eddie seems a little bit tired even though he is very excited.
"I love you too!" Eddie says smiling widely. "Goodnight!"
Eddie and Kim both hang up and go to bed. Kim is dreaming about Eddie and herself walking on the beach in the moonlight. Eddie is dreaming about Drew's reaction to meeting his daughter and what will be said when that time comes.
The next morning at nine, Eddie wakes up. He makes himself some breakfast. After he eats it, he gets dressed and dials a number on his cell phone. At the other end comes a female voice that says, "Hello."
"Hey! You ready for today?" Eddie hopes she is truly ready.
"As ready as I'll ever be." The female voice doesn't sound too sure.
"Everything will be fine. Trust me." Eddie tries to reassure the female voice that everything will be all right.
"I do trust you Eddie. I'm just a little scared about this is all. I haven't seen this man in eighteen years. What do I say to him? How do I feel towards him? Do I act angry and pissed or do I just open up to him?" The female voice sounds as shaky as Eddie's ever heard it.
Once again, Eddie tries to reassure the female voice. "I know you're scared. I know you don't know what you should be feeling or what you want to feel. Whatever you do feel will be the right thing to feel though. I'll be right beside you the whole time ok. I'm on my way now so be ready ok."
The female voice perks up just a little bit and says, "Ok."
Eddie makes a couple of trips, first to pick up the person he called. He proceeds to take her to get some ice cream at Baskin Robin's so they can talk some more.
"Are you sure you want to do this so soon?" Eddie asks, again making sure the female voice wants to go through with this life-changing event.
"Yes Eddie." The female voice is reassuring this time.
"Does your boyfriend know about this?" Eddie is somewhat concerned about who knows of this at this point.
The female voice answer, "No. I don't want him involved just yet. I need to do this and get out all my emotions first. There are so many things I have wanted to say to my dad if it ever happened that I could see him again. Does anyone else know about this?"
"Just my girlfriend, but I didn't tell her your name. I don't think Drew told anyone but myself either, now that I think of it. He's really excited to find out who you are." Eddie tries to make the female voice feel needed and make the situation a little easier on her.
"I just wonder, if I give him another chance, will he leave again?" This changes the mood slightly to one of doubt and possible regret.
"I'm gotten to know him very well lately, and I can tell you that he IS a changed man. He's got his life together and he wants you to be apart of it. How about this, I'll tell him if he ever leaves you again, I'll hunt him down and beat his brains out." Eddie tells the female voice, partially serious and partially kidding.
Eddie's lady friend smiles for the first time since she's found out that her father is alive. "HA! Thanks Eddie. I needed that. You are truly a great human being and I'm glad I've known you for as long as I have."
Eddie smiles and says, "I'm happy too. Now c'mon….let's do this thing!"
"YEAH! This is the first time since you told me about my dad that I've started to look forward to finally meeting him!" The female voice is now excited and that's music to Eddie's ears.
"That's good to hear." Eddie smiles and is ready to get this thing started.
"I know it is!" The female voice claps her hands together in anticipation.
Finally, Eddie and his female friend come up to a familiar door. Eddie rings the doorbell a couple of times before someone answers it. The man that comes to the door says, "Hey Eddie! What a pleasant surprise! Who's this with you?"
Eddie proudly announces, "Drew, this is your daughter!"
