Kim was upstairs getting changed. She saw Bobby walk up. He went over to her and wrapped his arms around her. He loved being able to do this. He started to run his hands through her hair and he kissed her softly. Neither of them heard the footsteps. Jimmy saw Bobby and Kim kissing. Now he was pissed. Who did Bobby think he was? Jimmy walked over to them and tapped Kim on the shoulder.
"What the hell is going on between you two?" Jimmy asked. Bobby smiled to himself. He'd been waiting for this day a long time. The day Jimmy noticed he had no chance with Kim. He looked over at Kim she looked worried about something. He wished he knew what.
"I was going to tell you later. Bobby and I are together," Kim said. She saw how angry Jimmy was. He had no right to be angry though. It's not like her and Jimmy were together. She looked up at Bobby. He seemed to be so cool about this. She just hoped that with Jimmy's anger this wouldn't turn into a fight. She didn't need everyone in the firehouse knowing her business.
"Kimmy, I thought you were better than that. We all know you can do better than Bobby. I mean you go from my bed to his. That's kind of insulting. It makes people think I had the easy girl. Which is true. It didn't even take a night to get you into bed," Jimmy smirked. Bobby punched Jimmy in his face sending him backwards. Kim was surprised that Bobby was the one to take the first swing. He looked so angry. Why was he so angry?
"Don't you ever say anything like that to her or about her. You got that?" Bobby yelled. Kim heard some footsteps and saw Alex. She saw how confused Alex looked. Alex walked over to Kim.
"What happened here?" Alex asked. She looked back over to Jimmy and Bobby. Jimmy was getting up and he just walked downstairs.
"Jimmy said something about me and Bobby punched him," Kim said. Bobby walked over to her and pulled her into his arms. He hoped Kim wasn't mad at him for acting out like that. She knew how much she hated two people she cared about fighting. And now Alex probably knew about them. Kim didn't want anyone to know yet.
"So, does this mean you two are together?" Alex asked. She saw Kim and Bobby smile at each other. She already knew the answer when she saw Jimmy on the floor.
"Yeah it does," Kim said. She was happy now that someone knew. She wanted to keep it quiet from certain people. Not everyone. She just hoped Bobby didn't mind Alex knowing.
"It's about time," Alex replied. She's known for a while that Bobby was in love with Kim. Everyone except Kim and Jimmy could tell. It seemed like a few days ago Kim was still hooked on Jimmy. Now she was with Bobby. It was like a soap Opera.
"What's that mean?" Bobby asked. He wasn't that obvious in showing he loved Kim. He thought he did a good job of hiding it. Except from Doc. Doc was the one that told him to tell Kim how he felt about her.
"It means we all knew that you wanted to be with Kim. I mean it wasn't that hard to figure out. You were always staring at her like a lovesick puppy. It was kind of cute actually. And how you would just do anything she asked you to. You had it bad," Alex said. She saw Kim smile and Bobby blush.
"One of these days Alex, you'll wind up knowing something that could get you hurt," Bobby said while giving her the evil eye for saying all of that in front of Kim.
"I think we should all go downstairs before someone else starts to wonder why we've been up here so long," Kim said. When they went downstairs everyone was staring at Bobby and Kim. They could both tell everyone knew what was going on.
"So is there anything you two want us to know?" Carlos asked. He was always the first person to say something that no one else wanted to.
"No," Kim said. She looked outside and saw Jimmy standing against the wall. She looked up at Bobby. He knew what she was going to ask.
"Do you mind if I go talk to him? I don't want him to be the one to tell Joey about us," Kim said. She knew how Jimmy worked. If he couldn't get what he wanted from her, he used their son.
"No, I don't mind," Bobby lied. Of course he minded. He knew all of the history between them. He was always the one to hear about how they would hook up almost every night only to have Jimmy hurt her again. But he had to trust her. She did seem to be over him. Bobby watched Kim walk over to Jimmy. He knew there would most likely be a lot of yelling.
Jimmy looked up to see Kim standing in front of him. He felt so bad for what he said about her. He knew she wasn't easy. And he knew she wasn't like the trash women he would see just to make her jealous. He knew that trying to make her jealous had to have been what drove her away and his reputation because of that. When he found out her and Bobby were together, he knew that he wouldn't have another chance with her. He knew that she was over him. And he didn't want her to be over him. He wanted her back. But she didn't trust him enough to go back to him. He just kept on hurting her. He hated himself for that.
"We need to talk," Kim said looking at Jimmy. He seemed to be thinking about something, but she really didn't care after what he said upstairs. He had no right to say those things and he had no right to insult Bobby. She looked down at the ground waiting for Jimmy to say something.
"I didn't mean what I said up there about you. I know you're not like that. And I know I crossed the line when I said those things about Bobby. I was just upset that you were with him. I know that doesn't make what I did right and I know that you're mad at me and I'll probably be hearing about it for weeks. But I really am sorry," Jimmy said. He wanted to take her into his arms but knew that he shouldn't. That would just make things worse. He knew he'd have to try and deal with the fact that he and Kim were over for good. Even though he didn't want to.
"I know that you didn't mean what you said about me, but it still hurt Jimmy. You were the first guy I loved and I still love you, just not the way I used to. Me being with Bobby has nothing to do with you and I would appreciate it if you didn't tell Joey, I wanted to tell him myself," Kim said. She thought that Jimmy was mad about her and Bobby because he didn't like Bobby, not because he still liked her.
"Yeah, I won't say anything to Joey, but you do know that you have to tell him soon?" Jimmy said.
"Yeah I know. I was thinking about telling him tomorrow night," Kim replied. She still didn't know how she was going to tell him. And she'd have to tell him about her being pregnant. She'd tell Jimmy later. She didn't need any lectures from him. And she knew she'd get one if he found out she was pregnant. He'd think it was like when they got married. Only her and Bobby didn't have any plans to get married. Not yet anyway. She smiled at Jimmy and went back inside. She saw Bobby sitting down and went over to him. She gently kissed him on the lips.
"What was that for?" Bobby asked. He was under the impression she didn't want anyone to know about them and they were acting like they didn't know.
"For defending me upstairs when Jimmy said those things. I never thought you would be the first person to swing though. I thought it would've been Jimmy," Kim said. She sat down on Bobby's lap. She didn't care what anyone thought of her and Bobby anymore. She didn't care if they knew, which she knew they already did. They sucked at hiding things from people.
"he deserved what he got. He shouldn't have said those things about you," Bobby said. He looked up and saw that Jimmy was back inside.
"So what happened out there? Did he agree to let you tell Joey?" Bobby asked softly trying not to let Jimmy hear them.
"Yeah. He's going to let me tell Joey," Kim replied. Jimmy wasn't so bad. He could be nice when he wanted to. That was just very rare.
"What else did you talk about?" Bobby asked. He saw her smile.
"Just some stuff. It's nothing you have to be worried about," Kim said. She leaned in and kissed Bobby again. She was so happy to be with him. She just hoped it wouldn't end.
