Later that same night Kimberly was awoken from a deep sleep to the sound of pebbles hitting her window. She sits up and rubs her eyes before standing up and walking to the window. She sees Prince Tommy and smiles; he smiles back and waves "good evening Kimberly I apologize if I have woken you but I had to see you." Tommy said which greatly surprised Kimberly because she thought he only saw he as a servant. "You had to see me, a common servant? I'm sure you could find a better way to occupy your time." She replied back still looking at him with the smile that melts Tommy's heart, "maybe I can, but what if I don't want to?" Tommy asked wondering if she noticed that he was flirting with her. "Tell me your highness, why did you need to see me?" Kimberly asked flirting back with him while taking a seat on her window ledge.
"It's Tommy if you don't mind, and I wanted to see you because I think you are the most beautiful and smart woman I have ever met. Now, will you do me a favor and come down from there?" Tommy asked not taking his eyes off of her. "Ok, give me one minute." Kimberly said and then disappeared into her bedroom, "Kimberly? Kimberly?" Tommy asked looking up at the window, waiting for her to come back.
Inside Kimberly's room Kimberly was running around her room trying to find something descent to wear, finally after searching through all her clothes she found one of her nicer dresses; it was floor length, green with off shoulder sleeves. Out of all the dresses she owned that one was her favorite because it was the only one with no ash stains or holes. After she had her dress on she looked in the mirror and almost screamed when she saw her hair. She quickly brushed out her waist length brown hair, then tossed it over her shoulder and braided it, she then found a piece of green ribbon and tied it at the end to hold it. Then after she was done she went back to the window and climbed down the tree, when she reached the bottom she hopped down and walked over to Tommy. He looked her up and down before saying, "Wow you look beautiful." Kimberly blushed and smiled shyly. "So Kimberly now that I have you down here, what would you like to do?" Tommy asked her, she thought for a moment before replying "How about a walk through the apple orchard?" Tommy nodded then offered his hand, Kimberly took it and then hand in hand they walked toward the orchard.
For a while they walked in silence, both trying to think of something to say. Finally after about 10 minutes Tommy broke the uncomfortable silence, "I was wondering Kimberly, do you like to read?" Kimberly looked at him confused then replied, "Yes, I love reading it's one of my favorite things to do. Out of curiosity, why do you ask?" Tommy looked at her for a minute before saying, "I was just trying to make conversation that's all." Kimberly shrugged it off then stopped walking and looked up at the sky, "Kimberly, what are you looking at?" Tommy asked, "I'm looking at the sun rise, don't you ever do that?" Kimberly asked still looking at the sky. "No, I don't really have time to stop and look at sun rises." Tommy said with a laugh, "Well you aren't busy now so stop talking and look at the sun." Kimberly said, Tommy smiled and looked up at the sky. After about five minutes the sun slowly started to make it's appearance it was one of the most beautiful things Tommy had ever seen. With the bright reds, oranges, and yellows all blending together, it was like God was painting a picture and the sky was his canvas; Tommy couldn't find words to describe how beautiful it was. After the sun had completely risen Kimberly realized how tired she really was and turned to Tommy, "I need to get home, I didn't realize how early it was." Tommy nodded, took her hand and walked back towards Kimberly's house.
When they back to Kimberly's house Tommy stopped in front of her window, "I had a very good time with you tonight Kimberly, I hope you allow me to call on you again soon, very soon." Tommy said with a smile, "I had a good time to Tommy, and yes you can call on me again." Kimberly said returning his smile. Tommy then moved in close and captured Kimberly's lips in a long, knee weakening, heart stopping kiss that left Kimberly wanting more. After sometime Tommy pulled away, "I will see you later have a good day, Beautiful." Tommy said and then turned and walked away smiling.
When Tommy turned away Kimberly climbed up the tree and into her room where she changed into one of her work dresses. She fell on her bed and was asleep instantly, until she was woken up by…
