Note: Hey guys, so sorry about the delay. College life got a little crazy then anything and everything that could go wrong did with my laptop. Here's a short new chapter, I hope to get a few more up this week.

When the two groups were reunited in Kim's dressing room, she and Tommy continued to act as though they didn't know each other. Kira introduce Kim to her other guest.

"It's really great to meet you all" She said with a smile. "You must be bursting with questions. Kira has already asked me some of hers, so do any of you have anything you're just dieing to know?"

"I'd like to know how you ended up in the music business" Haley began. "I mean, weren't you a star gymnast a few years ago?" She had heard the story of the letter from Tommy, and she really wanted to know what was so great yet so easy to leave behind, just like she had left Tommy behind.

"I'd been into gymnastics my entire life, but I'd also always loved writing songs and playing guitar. When I left Angel Grove to train, my only goal was to compete in the Pan Globals. It was beyond my wildest dreams when they asked me to be on the Olympic team. After I competed there I knew my time with gymnastics was up. I had offers, but when I thought of all I'd lost," She looked sadly at Tommy hoping he caught her meaning. "I had to walk away. I'd worked hard to get where I was, but most of the time I wished I'd just stayed in California and tried to be a normal teen" she laughed at that thought. "So I moved back and ended up spending most of my time with this guy here" She pulled Jason closer. "I was staying at his place, looking for a job, when luck brought me another offer. I'd been playing at a local club when a guy came up to me with a business card saying I was really good and he's love to offer me a record deal. That's really the whole story; the rest was all boring recording junk. The concerts and fans aren't bad but you know about those."

"Anything else you'd like to know?" Kim kept her voice cheerful but she couldn't help but wonder if Tommy had told this woman about the letter. She would have flat out asked if they were dating if Tommy wasn't acting like they didn't even know each other. She'd have to have a long talk with Jason later, he'd picked Kira up at the airport, and he had to have known Tommy was there.

"What do you usually do after a concert?" Conner asked. He'd like to experience what Anne did when she wasn't surrounded by fans.

"Well, I like to do normal stuff. I'm not that different from anyone else, just a girl who likes music and got a lucky break. It really depends on where the concert is. Like when there is one in California, I like to visit places I hung out at growing up. If there's one in New York, I have to shop."

"We should go do whatever it is you would be doing right now if we weren't here" Conner said, hoping she'd really hang out with them.

"I'm kind of hungry, we could go get something to eat" Kim suggested. She didn't care to spend time with these people; she just didn't really enjoy Florida anymore.

They all agreed on an Italian restaurant not too far from the stadium. It was a little dressy so they would have to head back to the hotel to change. Anne decided she'd share a limo with them but asked if they could split up into cars to eat. She hated drawing the attention of reporters with a limo. When the limo pulled up to the hotel Tommy and Kim were the last two to get out.

"Hey, would you like to go to this really nice park a few blocks down after we eat? I'd like to get to know you better" Tommy asked as he offered her his hand. She took it and allowed him to help her out of the limo.

"That sounds nice" She replied, her heart hammering in her chest. She still didn't know how to respond to Tommy being there, but this had to be a good sign. They shared an elevator up, but Kim was slightly disappointed when Tommy didn't walk her to her door. He stayed on the elevator until it reached his floor, his mind racing.
