Chapter 5: More Than Words
Kimberly slung her jacket and purse to the ground as soon as they arrived back to the house. They had just lost a case to make Carl's foster parents allow for a DNA test. Zedd had posed as the judge and denied the case.
"We just have to file the case again," Tommy said.
"And Zedd will be there to shut us down yet again!"
"We will get our son back."
"How! Tommy, how can we now!" Kimberly threw down her briefcase.
"Why are you shouting at me! This isn't my fault!"
"Because you are not helping!"
"I am trying my best!"
"Well, your best isn't worth shit!"
"Wow, thanks a lot Kimberly."
"All you have to do was fight and you didn't!"
"I want our son back!"
"Do you!"
"Of course I do!"
"Then why aren't fighting harder!"
"What do you want me to do! Punch out all the lawyers and judges in the courthouse until they do as I say and give us Carl!"
"That would be nice! It shows you actually care!"
"How dare you!"
"How dare I! Zedd is out there with our son!" Kimberly shoved Tommy back. "He has your son and you can't even fight for him!" Kimberly went upstairs, Tommy right behind her. He grabbed her arm. "Don't touch me!" Kimberly pulled away from him.
"You will not walk away from me! This is not my fault!"
"This has always been your fault!" Kimberly screamed then she slapped him when he went to grab her again. Kimberly gasped and covered her mouth after she slapped. Tommy slowly turned his head back to her. Kimberly shook her head and continued to the bedroom.
"No!" Tommy placed his hand and foot in the doorway before Kimberly could close the door. "This is not my fault! You saw Zedd! He was the judge! How was I suppose to know that!"
"If you had anything sense you would have saw through that!"
"You didn't!" Tommy yelled.
"I said something felt weird!"
"That doesn't mean…"
"Don't you see, this is his sick game! And we are falling for it!"
"He can't do this forever…"
"He can! He has been for years! 9 years, Tommy! And didn't even fight him," Kimberly said with tears in her eyes.
"It wouldn't have change anything!"
"How do you know that! How do you know when you didn't even try?" Kimberly collapsed to the bed in tears after slamming the door in Tommy's face.
Tommy went downstairs. He tossed and kicked everything and anything around him that irritated him. Kimberly was really tearing him down. They had been fighting a lot. She had only been in town a few weeks, not happy that she couldn't have her son back in just a day. Tommy went to make some tea.
"Maybe that'll calm her," Tommy thought. "How could she say that I am not fighting? That is all I'm doing?" He filled the kettle with water from the sink. "Why are we fighting like this? We should be together, helping each other, not arguing."
Tommy was so angry and hurt by Kim's words. "How could she believe I wasn't fighting?" Nothing more matters in his life than making her happy by bringing his son back to her arms. Tommy closed his eyes to tears. He wanted his son just as badly as she did, but they couldn't just take him away. As much as Kimberly just wanted to kidnap him and run away, Tommy knew the only way was through the courts. Tommy slid down the floor in his kitchen, crying.
Kimberly came into the kitchen and held her chest. Tommy sat there crying. She had only seen him cry twice. The night their son 'died' and the funeral a few days later. Kimberly knew she was being heartless to him. He didn't deserve that. He was trying his hardest to bring her son to him. She knew he wouldn't stop until he did that. Tommy never breaks his promises. A promise is his word and will be done. Kimberly walked over to Tommy. She touched his head, causing Tommy to look up at her. Kimberly shook her head. Tommy looked her in her tearful eyes as she kneeled down before him, holding his face. Kimberly smiled and wiped his face, as tears rolled down her face. She kissed him. Tommy touched her face as she kissed him again. Tommy stood up, still kissing Kimberly. He knew that kiss, he knew what that kiss meant, what she wanted. She wanted him. She needed him. Kimberly moaned, wrapping her arms around his neck, as he lifted her against the island to the counter with ease. His hands went at her waist, moving down to her hips, and up under her skirt. Kimberly's hands moved up from his waist, rubbing his chest and pecs, and then to cupping his face again. Tommy pulled away from her lips.
"Kimberly…" She shook her head and kissed him again. "Wait…are you sure..." Kimberly's hand covered his mouth as she kissed his neck. She pushed his suit jacket off his shoulders. Her eyes were on his eyes, as she slowly undid the buttons to his shirts after pulling the shirt from his pants. Tommy moaned as she kissed and nibbled his collarbone, while pulling his shirt and jacket off his arms and to the ground. She kissed down his chest and around his nipple. "Kimberly…" Tommy moaned. Tommy lifted Kimberly's head off as she was sucking at his nipple. Kim's mouth was still open. Tommy looked at those beautiful pink lips and he kissed her hotly. His tongue slowly slid into her mouth. Tommy pulled back looking Kimberly in the eyes, both breathing hard.
Kimberly smiled and slowly brought his hands up and covered her breasts. Tommy squeezed her breasts. His hands slid down to her stomach to the hem of the top, and slid the top off completely. A crimson lacy bra staring back at him, made Tommy's crotch twitch. His mouth watered, remembering how perfect those perky breasts taste. Tommy went to the front clasp and undid it. Kimberly shook the bra off her arms, after Tommy slid the straps off her shoulders and down. Tommy held Kim's face kissing her again before his eyes looked back at her breasts.
"Tommy…" He kissed right below her collarbone in the center, as his hands cupped her breasts. Tommy bent down as he kissed one breast before kissing between both of them. Tommy held her stomach, as he kissed around her navel. Kimberly held his head, pulling him back to her lips. They kissed passionately, both moaning against each other's mouths. Tommy stood comfortably between Kim's spread legs, rubbing her back and hips. Tommy pulled down her side-zipper to her skirt. Kimberly rose up enough for him to pull it off. Tommy let it drop to the ground. Kim's legs went around his waist and locked behind him as she moved from kissing him to his shoulder and neck. Tommy groaned to her slight bites and kisses. Tommy's hand moved down her chest right over her hot mound. He caressed her middle through her tanga with his finger, loving how wet she was with just kisses. Tommy moved back to kissing Kimberly on the lips, as his fingers memorized her again. Occasionally, his finger would press into her wet opening, causing Kimberly to gasp and moan. One finger became 2, and it didn't take long for Kimberly to be crying out to his fingers as they thrusted hard and fast inside her. He always had perfect hands. Kimberly arched back.
"Oh god…Tommy…." Tommy's hand went to her waist to force her to lay flat to the island. Tommy pulled her up a bit, as he bent down over her, taking a nipple into his mouth. Kimberly scratched his back with her nails as he suckled and feasted on both of her breasts. Tommy pulled her lacy red tanga down still feasting on her breasts. He kissed her on the mouth, as her tanga was dropped to the ground. Tommy rubbed her legs and thighs as he lifted them, to look at her fully undressed for the first time in years. Kimberly spread her legs for him, causing Tommy to groan at the pink opening. He bent back down as they kissed over and over. And then Kimberly pushed him slightly away. Kimberly forced him to stand straight as she sat up, looking at him. Tommy wanted to push her back, he wasn't finish with her, but he looked in her eyes, knowing that look and knew he would be a fool to fight her in this mood. Tommy wasn't a fool. He knew better. His eyes showed back the same fire and passion she was feeling, as her hand pulled at the belt to his pants. Tommy held her face attempting to kiss her, but she would pull away from his kisses, as she tore open his belt buckle. Kimberly smiled as he kept trying to kiss her, but she moved away from his lips.
"Minx." Kimberly ran her hand up and down the front of his pants over the zipper, causing Tommy to moan and grip the edge of the island. Kimberly moaned as she felt a pulse within those pants when she gave a nice squeeze. She undid the snap button and unzipped the pants, allowing them to fall to Tommy's ankles. A noticeable large tent in the front of his black boxer-briefs. She moaned with a smile as she touched the tip. Tommy slightly shuddered.
Tommy finally got a kiss from her, as she pulled his boxers down as well. Tommy pulled Kimberly closer to him. She smiled, as she moved just right so that the head nudged into her opening. Both moaned, and quaked, as they knew what was about to happen. Tommy kept his eyes on Kimberly, as he inched forward slowly. Kimberly cupped his face to kiss him, but it was Tommy's turn to release her lips. She groaned, as he spread her wide, thrusting inside her completely. Kimberly couldn't believe she actually went years without this man. Years! Kimberly cried out, arching her back, nearly falling back to the island top as Tommy was all the way deep inside her, pulsing away. Tommy took Kim's hands, causing her to gasp as he quickly tugged her back to him. He brought her arms like her legs around him. Kimberly hugged his body as Tommy lifted her up from the top of the counter to the island. He then laid her to the ground. Kimberly held his head, running her hands through his short spiky locks, as they kissed. As much as she loved those long brown locks, she had to admit, short was sexy. Tommy kissed her as he thrust inside her continuously. He made love to her right on his kitchen floor, slowly and passionately, knowing that in not too long, their bodies would be slapping against each other in that heated frantic love making. Tommy's hips crashed over and over against Kim's thighs, hitting that sweet jewel each time. Kimberly always loved that about him, he knew how to please her to no end. Tommy moved from kissing her lips to sucking at her neck, leaving his mark on her, as his thumb stroked around her mouth, until Kimberly started licking and sucking on it. Tommy rose from sucking at her neck, watching her sucking on his thumb, as his hips moved at its own speed now. She took his thumb between her teeth, as his thrust became more power against her, as she gave back everything to him. This wasn't the norm Tommy, Kimberly lovemaking of the past. This was new, this was raw, and this was perfect. A fiery passion of hot sex was just what the doctor ordered to mend any broken fences. To release any doubts, any uncertainties. Tommy swallowed Kim's cries with kisses as his body was on the brink. He could tell Kimberly was close with how many times she gasped out his name and 'ohgod' and how tight she clenched him.
Tommy took Kim's hands and pulled them up over her head as he kissed her against the mouth again. She touched and held his shoulders as he rose up slightly against her. Kim's legs rose high as well at his waist. The heels to her strappy high-heel sandals would hit his back as Tommy's head went beside her head. Sweat glistened both. Tommy never felt more alive than right now, right here, with the woman he loves. Kimberly opened her eyes to catch Tommy's eyes. Tommy looked down at her, as she arched her back finally. Kim's hands went down to his waist, urging him faster, as she felt herself coming. She held his butt tight, digging her nails as she came finally, screaming his name. Tommy roared loudly, crying out her name before burying his face against her neck as that was too much for him and he came as well. He was extremely lucky no neighbors, because he swore people in New York heard the climaxes of both of them. He thought for a moment he went blind with the many jets of his essences, his cum that filled Kimberly like never before. Kimberly's back finally gave after the final burst of his essence, as her inner muscles uncontrollably would tighten and draw him in deeper, if possible. Tommy was cradling Kim's head with his hands, as he rested against her. He dared for any ability to move from his body, and didn't even want to try. He knew he probably should, but she stayed clinging to him, which meant she didn't want him to move because to her, this was where he needed to be. Kimberly felt her body unable to move and loved Tommy's warm bod on top of her. He was her own personal blanket, perfect fit for her. Kimberly was holding his back, as she laid there well exhausted and satisfied. Both were trying to calm their beating hearts and slow their breathing. Kimberly closed her eyes to Tommy's breaths and fell asleep. Tommy could finally raise his head and looked up at Kim. Her eyes closed, caused him to smile. He still had it, even after all these years. They still had it. Tommy rested back on Kimberly with a smile.
"Good to know I still got it baby." Tommy's final thought before he slept as well with Kimberly.
About 20 minutes later, Kimberly woke up just as Tommy rose up from her, getting up on his knees and slipping from inside her. Tommy sat on the ground.
"You okay?" Kimberly nodded, closing her legs. Kimberly sat up as well as she felt a slight chill. Tommy was sitting slightly behind her. He moved some hair off the back of her neck to her front. Tommy kissed her neck and slid his shirt over her shoulders to warm her after seeing the goosebumps. Kimberly nodded, as he kissed her neck again, while rubbing her arms to warm her a bit. Kimberly slipped her arms into it on as Tommy sat up against his cabinets. They sat there next to each other, shoulders touching before Kimberly moved. She raised one of her leg over his lap completely, the other over one of his legs, as she laid her head against his shoulder. Tommy rubbed the legs.
"All I needed was a 'I'm sorry' you know." Kimberly smiled and kissed his cheek. "Though this was way better." Kimberly laid her head back to his shoulder with a smile then a frown. She sighed. Tommy's hand moved from rubbing her leg to her face. "What's wrong?"
"I am so sorry."
"For what?" Tommy asked.
"For making you so miserable! I come here, and I just screwed everything up!"
"What? You haven't screwed anything."
"Yes! Yes, I have." Kimberly stood up, tears in her eyes, closing his shirt around her. Tommy stood up quickly and hugged her. "I yell at you when it's not your fault! None of this is your fault, but I still yelled! I nearly get killed twice and all you do is forgive me and hold me…and I…"
"I love you, Kim."
"You do?" Kimberly turned in his arms.
"Of course I do! I have and will always love you!" Tommy cupped her face and kissed her forehead before hugging her.
"Even though what I do and say is so stupid and unforgivable?" Kimberly mumbled against his chest.
"Listen, I forgive you because I know how much this is killing you."
"But I shouldn't treat you…"
"Hey, hey I am just as upset and I want to punch and scream just as much as you do, but I don't because I don't want you to think I can't handle this. One of us as to say strong, and as much as this is killing both of us, I have to be stronger for you. We will get our son back and we will be a family, like it always will be."
"We will?"
"Do you honestly think I will let you go again?" Kimberly smiled. "Especially after that." Kimberly laughed. Tommy cupped her face. "We will get our son back, Beautiful. I promise you." He kissed her. Tommy wiped under her eyes. He kissed her cheek and lifted her into his arms. Kimberly gasped, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Where are we going?" Kimberly asked.
"Upstairs."
"Oh."
Tommy kicked his bedroom door closed before softly placing Kimberly onto the bed.
"You know I had my own plan on how this would work for us." Tommy tossed his shirt behind him after removing it from Kim's arms.
"Oh you did huh," Kimberly said rubbing Tommy's chest as he was above her on his knees between her legs. She kissed around his collarbone and upper pecs.
"Of course. I mean, not that I was going to put into work today, like you did but…" Tommy forced her to lay to the bed as he kissed the side of her head.
"Oh, are you mad I put the first moves on you?" Kimberly asked as she reached up and kissed him on the lips.
"No, grateful. You know how I feel about you. And I could never hide my feelings for you. I just didn't know if you felt the same."
"I understand. I mean, I can't believe we are…you know here like this again. I never thought…."
"Me too, though I always felt like if given the chance we would."
"You did?" Kimberly asked.
"That I did and much more." Kimberly held his face as she kissed him again.
"I love you too so much. And I don't want to make any more mistakes with you," Tommy said.
"You didn't make any mistakes the first time, or the second time."
"I did. I let you go, didn't I? But I am never doing it again." They kissed. "I love you, Beautiful."
"I love you too." They made love again.
The sun shined warmly through the bedroom. Tommy couldn't help but smile at the slight snoring on top of him. Tommy's hand moved from the soft back to the silky hair. Tommy kissed the top of Kimberly's head.
"I love you." An evil laughter filled the room.
"I see you fucked her again." Tommy looked toward the window as Zedd stood there. "Not surprising. She always knew how to spread those legs." Tommy quickly pulled the sheets to cover Kim's naked body. "Oh, don't be modest, especially after what I saw in the kitchen."
"What the fuck do you want?" Tommy sat up after shifting Kimberly to a pillow off him.
"What I want…. Tommy boy, you already know that answer."
"Never."
"I already have your son. He sees me more as a father than he will ever see you."
"We will get our son back."
"Oh, promises, promises, Tommy my boy. So, how was she, better than before?"
"You'll never know." Zedd laughed.
"I could have her, right now."
"I would kill you before you ever touched her."
"Kill me?" Zedd laughed. "You will never kill me because I am better than you." Zedd snapped his fingers. Kim's body disappeared from the bed and into his arms. "Now, I have everything from you and you have nothing."
"Give her back!" Kimberly opened her eyes. She gasped.
"She is my queen. We will raise our son. Goodbye, Tommy."
"Tommy!"
"Kimberly!" Tommy jumped up and reached for her as she held her arm out, but Zedd and her disappeared. "NO! NOOOOOO!"
Kimberly gasped as Tommy shot up in bed.
"NO!" Tommy yelled.
"Tommy? TommY!" Tommy looked at her and hugged her immediately.
"Oh, Kimberly! He didn't take you!"
"Of course not."
"He didn't take you!"
"Shhh…it's okay, it's okay now. I'm here. I'm here. It was just a bad dream, okay. I'll never leave you. Okay." They kissed. "Come on, let's get some sleep." Kimberly moved Tommy to lie on her chest. "You okay?" Tommy nodded. "Want anything?"
"Just you."
"You have that, handsome. You have all of me." She kissed his forehead as he settled against her chest. His hand came up to cup her breast as he kissed the side of her breast before closing his eyes. He hugged her, falling asleep with Kimberly stroking his head. She fell asleep after hearing his soft breaths against her chest. She smiled and kissed his forehead again as sleep fairies took her to dreamland as she dreamt of her white knight all over again.
Next morning
Tommy woke up on his stomach. He turned to his side getting off Kimberly. He covered her with the sheet. He stroked her face and hair. She was so beautiful to him. Tommy outlined her face, planting soft kisses against her cheek. Kimberly moaned. Tommy thought about their first times together. He smiled as she looked almost the same, a bit more mature in the eyes and body, but she was still his 'Beautiful'.
Kimberly sat on the bed behind Tommy. They had the biggest fight in their lives. Kimberly was about leave for Florida in the morning. Kimberly moved closer to Tommy and hugged him, resting her head against the base of his neck.
"Tell me to stay and you know I will."
"And that wouldn't be fair to you."
"You think I want to go! You practically told me to!"
"Because if you don't go you will hate that decision."
"I won't if you just say the words." Tommy turned in her arms.
"I don't want you to go." Tommy held her face and kissed her. They slowly fell to the bed kissing passionately. "But that would be unfair to you. I love you."
"I love you too." He rubbed her face.
"I don't want to make love because you are leaving…I don't want our first time to be the only time."
"Then it won't. Make tonight, the first of many nights." Tommy smiled. She pulled his head down as she kissed him. "Make tonight last forever."
Kimberly stood before Tommy over a year later. Tommy looked at her in his backyard he left the party early. Everyone was still at the Youth Center with the celebrations for the start of the spring about to reign in, going into the final weeks of their senior year. She had broken his heart with a letter practically a year ago, now standing before him.
"Hi."
"Hi," Tommy repeated. Kimberly stepped closer. Tommy had gone down to the Olympic village in Atlanta with his friends over the summer to cheer her and the USA girls team home in the '96 Olympics, though their relationship was technically over with. She had left his bed in his motel an early morning leaving him wondering what he had done wrong. Only to return with Jason and being captive by an evil pirate Divatox, which left no time to talk, but here she was. "What are you doing here?"
Kimberly grabbed him and kissed him quickly. Her arms went around his neck
He pulled her with him and they slipped upstairs to his bedroom. Tommy slammed his door behind them, still kissing her. He picked up Kimberly by the waist and they crashed down to the bed. Tommy pulled at her dress, as she ripped at his shirt. Tommy kissed her hard against the lips, as she worked on his pants.
"Why did you leave without a word?"
"I have to tell you something," Kimberly said in the mist of their kissing.
"Later."
"But maybe I should now…"
"We can talk later." Kimberly nodded kissing him again, holding his face. They made love, resting comfortably under the covers. "Why did you leave 4 months ago?"
"I had to, there was something I had to do."
"More important that us?"
"I have to tell you something."
"What?" Tommy asked, as she sat up.
"I'm scared."
"Why?"
"Because I don't…I don't know how to tell you."
"Tell me what?" She turned her face away from him with tears in her eyes. "Why are you afraid to talk to me? You did this with that bogus letter, now what is it?"
"God! How many times must I apologize for that letter!" Kimberly had wrote Tommy a 'Dear John' letter breaking up with him that spring before Olympics, only for them to fight during the Olympics over it. Probably not the best time to be distracted from the Games for Kimberly over a break-up, but it happened. They fought, they yelled and eventually, they made love in the heated battle, only to have Kimberly walk out in the morning. Then came Christmas break again, with Kimberly pulling away again in the morning before Tommy had a chance to talk. She hadn't even tried to call him until now.
"You lied to me and then you write me off as a brother!"
"I didn't know what to do, I thought it was all for the best! It was nothing more than words, why can't you just see that at the time it was for the best!"
"The best!" Kimberly was crying now.
"What do you want me to say, to do, to change it?" Kimberly asked.
"There is nothing to say or do, it still has happened!"
"You said you had forgiven me for that damn letter!"
"How could I possibly say that now, you left me again!"
"I'm sorry!"
"Don't say you're sorry! Tell me you love me, and don't run away this time." Tommy held her face.
"I'm sorry." Kimberly pulled away, keeping her back to him.
"For what?" Tommy said.
"Because I…"
"Because you what, Kimberly, just tell me!"
"I'm pregnant!" Kimberly yelled facing him.
"What?"
"I'm pregnant."
"You're…what?"
"I'm pregnant," Kimberly said softly.
"What are you going to do?"
"My mother wants an abortion."
"What!"
"If I have this baby, I lose my scholarships to any school I want."
"But this is our baby!" Tommy wanted to kick himself for not noticing the slight bump forming at her stomach. He was so overwhelmed with having her back in his arms, kissing her; he didn't even feel the change until now. Tommy placed his hand on her stomach, and Kimberly touched his hand.
"I know that, but I have to think about the future, Tommy. We are just 17!"
"You can't have an abortion! You don't believe in abortions!"
"I know I don't, but…"
"You can't be thinking this way. This is our baby, my baby," Tommy said touching her stomach. "We can handle this, we can take care of it together. I'll take care of you and the baby. We'll be a family, my family." Tommy touched her face and kissed her deeply. "I love you and I always will." She smiled and nodded.
"I love you too."
"We're going to have a baby."
"I know."
"Oh, we're going to have a baby, Beautiful!" He hugged her tight. She laughed and hugged him back.
Tommy smiled as he remembered the past. He hated how much time was spent apart due to immaturity on both sides. She had moved on too quickly after the 'death' of their son. He knew it was an act and they fought over it to the point that it broke them apart again. They drifted apart, which should have never happened. Kimberly could feel the warmth of the bedroom, as she felt a hand stroking her face softly.
Kimberly smiled as she felt her eyes opening slowly. Kimberly gasped as the hand turned cold, the room filled with a chilly air as the person stroking her face was Lord Zedd.
Kimberly shot up in bed.
"Hey! Hey!" Tommy put his arm around her, as she was gasping for air. "Hey, it's okay."
"Sick bastard." Kimberly laid to her back.
"You okay?" Kimberly nodded. She blushed as she looked down and saw the covers at their waist. Tommy smiled as he kissed her lightly on the lips. Tommy moved slowly on top of her, kissing her passionately.
"Hey," she moaned as Tommy sucked on her neck. "Tommy…"
"Hmm…" Kimberly smiled as he didn't stop at her neck, moving down a bit.
"What time is it?"
"Just 7." Tommy moved off her to his back.
"Why are you so wide awake?"
"Just thinking," Tommy said rubbing the top of her head as she laid her head back to his chest. "How did you sleep?"
"Pretty good til the end."
"Good. Did you have a dream about Zedd again?"
"Yeah. Do you think he's doing this on purpose? Like he's watching us now."
"I don't know. I sure hope not, because he got a great show last night." Kimberly blushed and laughed. Tommy smiled as well. "I was thinking…"
"How do we stop Zedd, Tommy?"
"We will."
"How? If he can pose as anybody and intimidate people…"
"He can't stop us. We will bring up another case to the courts," Tommy said. "We can't give up."
"I know we can't give up, but…"
"Don't lose hope."
"But what if…"
"No, 'what ifs' okay. We will file another case to the courts, but this time we will go a different light, with everything we need."
"What do you mean?"
"Like Judge Zedd said, we need to prove our son is dead."
"Okay."
"We will fly to New York and settle that this week."
"Okay."
"But first, we must do something else."
"What?"
"Do this as one unit."
"I thought we were..."
"As husband and wife."
"What?"
"If we get married…if we are seen as one…. It will better that way, not 2 people trying to get their boy back, but a married couple searching to get back their lost son and raise him as a family. We will show them, the courts, that we will be together forever. As a family, as a solid unit. A stable unit for our boy."
"You want to get married?"
"Yes."
"When?" Kimberly asked.
"Now."
"Now!"
"Yeah. Let's find a chapel here, get a license and get married."
"What about our family? Our friends!"
"We will have a big wedding later, right now, let's just be married and get our son back."
"I don't know if…"
"Don't you love me? Don't you want to marry me?"
"Of course I do!" Kimberly held his face. "I love you. I do, but…."
"No. No more buts. You love me, and I love you. This is the best thing for us." Kimberly went quiet. Tommy sighed.
"Okay."
"Okay?"
"Okay."
"Yes!" Kimberly laughed as he took her in his arms tight, they rolled about the bed, laughing and kissing. "You will!"
"Yes! Why not!" Tommy smiled with her. They hugged and kissed. "This is so crazy, but it's not a bad idea! If we are married, you're right, we have a stronger case together. We just have to prove that the son in New York was not ours."
"I think I have a way to do that, but first we get married."
"Okay."
Tommy rushed to the courthouse with Kimberly to get a marriage license. They waited in a line due to the crowd in the courthouse.
"Not changing your mind, right?"
"Ummm…no."
"Kimberly, you do want to do this right?" Kimberly looked at him with uncertainty.
"I know I love you. And what you said is true, but…"
"No buts. Do you want to do this?" Kimberly closed her eyes. She gasped as she had a flash, a glimpse of her future, looking at Tommy smiling at her, as he was carrying a bundle in his arms.
"Kimberly?" Kimberly opened her eyes. "Kimberly?"
"Yes."
"Yes?"
"Yes, I want to marry you today." She looked at him with a smile. "Everything I know is telling me yes, do this right now. Everything I feel when I'm with you is perfect, just as I want it our future to be. I love you. I love you."
"I love you too." They kissed.
"Number 16! Number 16!" Tommy looked down.
"That's us." They got up. Tommy and Kimberly showed their papers to the clerk.
"That will be 75 dollars, sir." Tommy smiled and pulled out his credit card. Kimberly shook her head, not believing the events about to unfold.
"It's only 75 bucks to get married."
"The license, yes. The chapel will be a bit more," Tommy said. "Come on."
"Is this crazy, I mean, we are actually getting married…today," Kimberly said as they walked out. "Today!" Tommy took her hand.
"Yes, it's crazy. But, it's the right thing to do, Beautiful. We should have done this years ago." She smiled as he kissed her.
"I know. Oh, I love you."
"Come on." They went back to the house to find something to wear to get married, as they called in a chapel on the way to the courthouse.
Tommy rushed upstairs as Kimberly screams filled the house. It was a scream of death, which frightened Tommy to no end. He hated that scream as it burned his ears once before. Tommy burst into the room.
"What? What's wrong?"
"I can't get married in any of these!" Tommy looked around his room. He let out a breath, as he found her unharmed, just pissed off. His room was another story though. It was as if a hurricane came and threw around all her clothes, as they were tossed about the room. Kimberly was standing in a white ruched square-neck dress.
"Why not?"
"Because! Because I can't!" Kimberly pulled it off and tossed it aside.
"It's not a bad dress, though do you really need to wear white?"
"It is my first wedding! I am allowed to wear white!"
"I didn't say you couldn't…I was just saying only virgin brides have to…" Tommy smiled at her with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Oh, shut up!"
"What is wrong with this one?" Tommy held up a white caftan dress with Mediterranean detail.
"That is a summer dress! Not for a wedding!"
"What is really wrong, Beautiful?"
"You don't understand!"
"Then make me."
"I want…I want something special! I don't want to be married in something horrible and plain. I just can't," Kimberly said sitting down crying. "I just can't get married like this."
"Then I will have to get you something else."
"What?" Kimberly asked as he sat on the bed with her. Tommy smiled and put his arm around her, while holding her hand with his other hand. He turned her face up to look at him and wiped her face.
"I want this to be as perfect as it can be for you. We can stop by stores and get a dress on the way."
"What?"
"It can be your something new. Come on." Tommy stood up. He held his hand out for her to take. Kimberly took it. "Let me fix my make-up first." Tommy laughed.
"Hurry up and throw on some clothes, okay. We need to hurry, we have our chapel set for 4."
"Ha ha! I'm coming." Kimberly kissed his cheek and went into the bathroom. Tommy looked on the ground at some sparkling sliver shoes. He smiled and picked them up. He hid them into his bag carrying his suit and shoes.
After an hour of shopping, Kimberly couldn't find anything she wanted, so gave up. But Tommy wasn't that easily frustrated. He smiled at a dress that caught his eye. It had caught Kimberly's eyes too, until she saw the price. Tommy found a chapel for them to get married.
"Welcome, welcome. You must be the soon-to-be Olivers."
"Yes," Tommy said. Kimberly didn't look too happy as she walked inside, but put on a fake smile. "We want to be married today."
"Of course you do. We have the perfect chapel here to do so. Come, come, you may change in those rooms. The priest will be here shortly to marry you." Tommy kissed the side of Kim's head before they separated. Kimberly sighed at the bag she brought from home. She didn't want to get married in that dress she picked up, but decided it was the best for now. When they really get married, she was going all out.
Tommy smiled and closed his door first before Kimberly went into her bare room. Kimberly pulled off her jacket. She sat in the chair, looking at reflection in the vanity mirror. Secretly wishing her best friend was here, her mother even would help. Kimberly wiped away some tears. Kimberly looked up and gasped. A smiling Trini stood behind her. Kimberly turned and found the room bare. Kimberly slowly turned back to the mirror. Trini stood there smiling and she nodded placing her hand on Kim's shoulder. Kimberly slightly flinched as if she felt the ghostly hand.
"Trini?" Trini reached down and kissed the back of Kim's head, placing both her hands at Kim's shoulders before wrapping her arms around her. "Is this real?" Trini nodded. "We always swore we would be there for each other at our weddings. Thank you for keeping your promise." Trini kissed Kimberly again before she started to disappear. "Wait! Don't go!" Kimberly turned around in her chair. Trini bent down before her and placed her hand over her heart.
"Never…" A voice whispered. Kimberly smiled and placed her hand to her heart.
"Thank you." Kimberly closed her eyes. Trini nodded and disappeared. Kimberly opened her eyes and found the room empty again. "Trini?" Kimberly stood up. She touched her hand to her heart and smiled. "I love you." She went to her bag and found it a bit heavier than it should be. Kimberly pulled back the zipper to her bag. Kimberly gasped. She lifted the white gown out the bag and held it up.
Glamorous pink sequins bust and pink asymmetrical ruching and butterflies at the waist over white strapless gown. Glittering rhinestones over the bust, a slight train and an open back to complete the look of the dress. It was a gorgeous dress. Kimberly held it to her body and looked in the mirror.
"Tommy!" Tommy was just putting on his shirt when he heard her cry out his name. He quickly zipped up his pants and rushed to her room.
"What is it, Kimberly?" She turned with the dress up against her. "Oh, you like it?"
"This was too much!"
"Nothing is too much for you." Tommy held her face. They kissed. "Now, hurry up. I'm almost dressed and you still have make-up and hair to do." Kimberly laughed.
"Okay." Tommy kissed her cheek before leaving again. Kimberly turned back to the mirror and biting her bottom lip. She smiled and did several twirls around the room. Kimberly couldn't stop smiling deeply. She was ready to be married now.
Kimberly had slipped on the gown but was fighting with the back zipper once again after she had just finished her make-up. Her hair would be last, she just wanted a simple half ponytail in the end. A hand came up and did it. Tommy kissed her neck, doing the final button at the top before holding her shoulder as they looked at their reflections in the mirror.
"You look beautiful."
"So do you." Tommy pulled out something from his pocket. "I almost forgot." Tommy opened the black velvet box.
"Tommy!"
"Don't get too excited! It was my mother's. My real mother's. I think she would have loved for you to be the woman I marry and wear this." Tommy slid the diamond ring to her finger. "Now, we are officially engaged and we can get married today." They kissed.
"Well, I have my something new, the dress; old is my shoes, thank you."
"You're welcome."
"Borrowed are these earrings from Aisha. I need to give back." Tommy laughed with her and helped her put them in. "But I don't have anything blue."
"Uh blue…"
"Yeah."
"Oh, wait…I do." Tommy saw a blue clip on the table. Kimberly gasped as Tommy held it up. "What?"
"I know this clip." It was butterfly blue hair clip. Tommy turned it over and saw the back. "TK?"
"It belonged to a TK."
"Trini Kwan."
"What?" Kimberly took the clip and looked at it. "This is Trini's!"
"Yeah." Kimberly smiled.
"But how?"
"I don't know. She came to me."
"When?"
"Earlier."
"She's watching over us, then." Tommy pulled some hair from one side of her head and pinned it back with the clip. Tommy rubbed her face and moved some fallen strains behind her ear. "There, perfect."
"How do I look?"
"Beautiful." They kissed.
"Are you two ready?" The old lady asked.
"Coming!"
Tommy was ushered out first. He took his stand at the top. The doors were closed for Kimberly to make her entrance. The organ man started the wedding march, as the doors were opened. Kimberly smiled as she looked ahead to see Tommy smiling at her. She held her bouquet tight to her chest, as she slowly made the path to the altar. There was a few people sitting in the audience. Tommy held his arm out for her. She took his arm as they looked up at the priest. He opened his bible.
"I will make this short for I know you two have waited too long for this moment. Today, we find 2 individuals that have graced this holy church to become one." The organ plays softly in the background, as the priest read from him bible. All 3 of them did the holy cross. The priest started the vows, Tommy and Kimberly both expressing their own vows when asked.
"Do you two promise to always love each other, to stand by one another, in good times and in bad? To cherish one another, and to honor? In sickness and in health, for all the days of your lives?"
"I do."
"I do," Tommy repeated looking at Kimberly. She squeezed his hand.
"By the powers invested in me by the state of California. I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride." Tommy smiled and cupped her face. They kissed slow and passionate getting a round of claps from the witnesses and organ player.
Tommy paid the bellboy as he brought their bags inside first. Kimberly went to follow, but Tommy pulled her back.
"What?"
"We have to do this right!" Kimberly gasped as he took her into his arms and lifted her up. Kimberly giggled. Tommy carried Kimberly into the Honeymoon suite room, causing Kimberly to gasp at the sight before her.
"TommY! This place is too much!"
"Nothing is too much for you, Beautiful," Tommy said carrying her inside. The bags were dropped to the floor. Kimberly was put down to look around the suite.
"Is everything to your liking sir?"
"Yes, thank you."
"For room service just dial one. I will be back with your complementary champagne and dessert."
"Wait about an hour," Tommy said with a smile. The bellboy smiled.
"Yes, sir."
Tommy looked up as Kimberly returned from the balcony.
"The balcony is huge! And a hot tub and a fireplace. This is amazing, Tommy."
"I'm happy you like it."
"Like it? I absolutely love it!" She wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed.
"Now, I don't know about you, but I think a nice rump in the sack is in order, Mrs. Oliver." Her legs went around his waist, as he held her tightly.
"I love how you think, Mr. Oliver." Tommy placed Kimberly on the ground at the end of their heart-shaped bed. Kimberly watched him pull off his jacket as he kicked off his shoes. Kimberly did the same with her sandals, kicking them back aside as well. Tommy dropped his pants to the ground, never taking his eyes off Kimberly. Tommy stood before her in all his naked glory. Kimberly arms went around his neck once he undid the back notch and zipper to her gown. It pooled at her feet. Tommy squatted down, pulling her white panties down. Kimberly went to remove knee-high stockings, but Tommy stopped her.
"Leave them, they are sexy." Kimberly blushed. Tommy lifted her with ease and they fell to the bed kissing.
"I love you."
"You have no idea what you do to me, wife." Kimberly smiled.
"And I will keep doing it forever to my husband." They kissed. Tommy kissed her neck, as his hand covered one breast. Kimberly moaned, raising her legs at his waist. Tommy kissed down the center of her chest to his goal. He raised one of her legs over his shoulders as he feasted on her center. Kimberly gasped, holding his head. She didn't need to show him where she needed him to be, he knew it too well. He always knew how to work his mouth and fingers against her. Kimberly gripped his head tightly as she came. Tommy slid into her as soon as she came, loving to feel the aftershocks of her orgasm. Tommy brought his 2 wet fingers up her body to her mouth. Kimberly moaned, squeezing around him, as his fingers ran over her lips. Tommy kissed her on the lips, loving how their tongues battled against each other. Tommy cradled Kim's head in his hands as he thrust deep inside her. Kimberly held his back as they made love as lovers filled with so much love. Tommy would rise up to his hands often to thrust harder, before Kimberly would pull him down to kiss again. They made love as one being, where their bodies melded into one. Each body knowing the other's body. Kisses were like liquid fire. Bodies moved as one. It was that perfect rhythm, that perfect match, and though neither of them was perfect, who is, this was a perfect moment in their lives. A complete fresh start to what will be the greatest foundation of a new life.
Tommy was patting the bed that he brought for the weekend. They had only tested its limits with the first time. Barely breaking it in. It was the most romantic hotel suite in town. They were just married over an hour ago. Tommy was married to his one true love finally. Tommy and Kimberly shared their first meal as a married couple before heading upstairs for the evening festivities. It was a short dinner, barely eating, knowing what lies ahead tonight. They barely got into the room, as they kissed the entire way up the elevator, making love of course the first act as newlyweds in this room.
"Kimberly, you have been in there for a while," Tommy said knocking on the bathroom door. "Kimberly!"
"I'm-I'm coming!" Kimberly stood staring at herself. She had rushed into the bathroom, closing the door forbidding Tommy to enter until she came out. She looked at herself, feeling uneased for the first time in a while. "Just…just another minute!"
"Are you okay?"
"Ye-yeah!"
"Are you sure?"
"Ye-yeah! I'm coming!"
"Kimberly?" Tommy opened the door and gasped. Kimberly turned in a white sheer chiffon flyaway babydoll with white 'Just Married' bikini with blue side-ties, satin gloves with marabou detail and marabou sandals. Kimberly bit her bottom lip.
"I thought…maybe…I mean, I saw it and thought it might be cute…"
"Oh Beautiful," Tommy said coming toward her. "You didn't have to get all sexy for me. You are sexy just as you are." She smiled. He cupped her face and kissed her. "But what a sexy little bride you are right now." Kimberly giggled.
"I have the tee that says that."
"You do?"
"It was pretty sheer."
"Ooo…I might like that one later. Come on, the champagne is cold and the bellboy brought in some strawberries and chocolate." Kimberly moaned.
"I didn't have dessert."
"I know."
The couple woke up hours later in the wee morning hours. Tommy rubbed Kimberly's head as she laid against his chest. She turned and laid back against him, looking at her left hand. She held her left hand up, smiling. A diamond ring with a beautiful thick gold band ring together on her ring finger for the first time. She giggled.
"What is it, Mrs. Oliver?"
"I couldn't be more happier than I am right now, Mr. Oliver." Kimberly turned her head and they kissed.
"We will get our son back."
"I know. I have much faith and a lot of hope now."
"Good." They kissed again.
