Chapter 6: Intentions Come To Light
Bradley smiled evilly, he had them fooled, Kimberly thought that he was still in Florida, and he didn't know how much he'd regret following them to Reefside. Dr. Tommy Oliver was ready to beat him to a bloody pulp, and, had Bradley been stupid enough to just go waltzing into Cyberspace, he might not have gotten hurt but he would have gotten the cursing of his life.
Tears once again in Kimberly's eyes as she read her e-mails, all of them were apologies and she wanted to just forget that anything had happened to her.
Tommy walked over to her knowing something wasn't right, she was shaking slightly. He tapped her on the shoulder and she looked up with tears in her eyes, with her back turned Conner and Ethan thought that she was okay, but Kira, Trent Hayley and Tommy weren't fooled. Trent had gone to get something, he had said he would be back right back. Turn out he'd gone and gotten some pink flowers, he had wanted to get roses, but found much to his dismay he could only get two, but that would be fine, he didn't have to do this at all.
"Is this for your girlfriend?" the woman had asked nonchalantly.
"Actually no, this is for a girl who's had a rough las few days" Trent replied
"Okay" she smiled "give her my sympathies"
"Thanks, but the way she's acting, one more apology would probably push her over the edge, all of her old friends e-mailed her, but, all good intentions aside, I don't think it was the best idea" Trent shrugged
"Me either" the woman said "bye"
"Bye"
Trent walked out the door and back to Cyberspace. When he got there Tommy was sitting beside Kimberly to try and comfort her.
"Kim" Trent said "I got these for you"
"Thank you, Trent" Kimberly said
"No problem"
Trent approached the counter and Conner laughed
"Those are roses, you didn't blow your budget did you?" Ethan asked
"No, I'm not stupid, I'm just concerned about her, this has to be hard" Trent said
"So is what Tommy's going through, the stress he's under right now I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy" Hayley said as she watched Tommy embrace Kimberly, helplessly. "I'm sure he feels helpless, and I guarantee you one thing, he hates that feeling with a passion."
(POV Hayley)
I didn't know how Tommy was coping with what had happened to Kimberly, but he had kept that cool, calm exterior through all of this. To be honest, I figure that is one thing about Tommy Oliver I'm never going to find out.
"Guys, I have a bad feeling they didn't lose that guy like they thought they did" Kira said "something tells me he was planning on her leaving Florida"
"If he did follow them he'll have hell to pay" I said
"Oh, yeah" Ethan said "Dr. O will beat him to within an inch of his life"
"I doubt he'll physically harm the guy, unless he tries to harm one of the girls around here" I paused "you guys don't have to worry about whether or not he'll watch your backs, if there is one thing he's serious about it's protecting his teammates, former and current"
I knew if there was one thing Tommy wouldn't stand for it was standing idly by and allowing another girl to get hurt the way Kimberly had, he hadn't been able to protect Kimberly, then it dawned on me what the guy was up to.
"This was ment to hurt Tommy" I said
"What?" Conner asked
"The guy was aiming the attack through Kimberly, because he knew that that would be the most painful wound he could possible inflict on Tommy, an emotional one" I said "he couldn't do anything to protect her and feels like he let her down"
"So in a way he might have accidentally pushed them closer together"
"Exactly Kira, he wanted to pull her away from Tommy, but instead he pushed her right into Tommy's arms" I shook my head knowing fully that Tommy and Kimberly were ment to be together, was I jealous, no, I never loved him, he was a good friend, he'd always be a friend of mine, but nothing more. I watched him hug Kimberly near himself, his support would probably be the biggest factor in her recovery, he was her strength and I could only pray that one day they could see how much they loved each other and get together.
(3rd person)
No one knew that Bradley was even there, much less looking for someone another target, his first instinct, Hayley, but targeting her probably wouldn't get the proper reaction. Then he thought about it and his target became Kira Ford, she was young and strong, but that made her the perfect target, certainly that was a bigger risk, but one he felt he'd have to take.
"Hayley, I've got to go, I have to meet up with my new agentnow" Kira walked out of the cafe and once she was out of sight and earshot of her friends Bradley made his move.
A while later Hayley got a call from the person Kira was suppose to meet, she had never made it there.
"Tommy..." Hayley started
He looked up to find out what Hayley had to say
"Kira never made her meeting with her new agent" Hayley said
To Be Continued...
a/n: I know this is a weird chapter, but I think it turned out pretty good, and it's rather short, but I felt like giving you a really good cliff hanger.
Pls. Leave a review, and note that all flames will be redirected at the nearest hurricane.
