THE DAY JUST WENT FROM BAD TO WROSE

I don't own anything but I sure do wish I did sometimes. All the disclaimers apply though

Chapter 3

As the group neared the playground they saw Kimberly sitting on the swings looking miserable. As they got even closer Jason kneeled down in front of Kimberly and said "Are you okay little sis?"

That got Kimberly's attention real quick. She saw them cautiously approach and didn't know if she could maintain the cold shoulder attitude she spent days practicing. Instead with Jason's words she didn't need to worry as so much anger bubbled up to the surface. She exploded with "I am so super freaking peachy. But I guess you wouldn't know that since I became dead to you once I left to follow some silly dream."

"You're kidding right?" exploded Tanya. "After that dear John letter you sent to Tommy you are lucky we are even in the same place as you." That got everyone silent as the elephant in the room finally got addressed. Everyone waited as they all wanted to know why she wrote the letter but no one was willing to ask.

"WHAT?" Kim said shocked. "I would never send a letter like that. Are you guys kidding me?" Everyone got wide eyed and shook their heads no.

"Enough of this" said Kat as she reached into Tommy's pocket and pulled out the well worn letter. "Look for yourself. We don't need you coming here and spreading your lies."

Kimberly took the letter, opened it up, and read it. When she was finished she folded it back up and handed it to Tommy with an unreadable expression on her face. As she got up Jason quickly stood up too and said "where are you going little sis?"

"Don't call me that Jason and I'm leaving" said Kim. "I think I made a mistake by coming here at all."

"What do you mean?" said Kat. "Leaving now that you were caught in a lie?"

"A lie? Well that is real rich coming from you." With that she looked around the group. As she mentally made her decision she bent down reached into her purse and threw her diary at Tommy and said "that is not even my handwriting. If you look inside the diary you will be able to tell that right off the bat." The group all circled around Tommy as he opened the book. Right away all of them could tell that it was not her writing. Shocked into silence all they could do was stand and watch as Tommy silently handed her back her diary. As for Tommy he felt as if his heart had stopped and then dropped down to his feet.

"Beautiful I'm so sor" but he was cut off and Kimberly slapped him hard across the face.

"I don't want to hear it" she said. "You call all of one time not bothering to get my side of it or try coming to see me. All I did was train and complete my school work. I was so focused and dedicated that I managed to graduate 6 months early. So no I would not have had the time to "meet someone" else. Thinking back to that time I remember all of you but Trini chewing me out and hanging up on me every time I called. Did any of you besides Trini even bother to watch me compete in the Pan Global games? "As she looked at her former team mates she noticed all of them hang their heads in shame and then shake their heads no. "I think I need to leave as I can tell that I am not wanted here."

"NO" Tommy shouted. "Don't go. Not yet please." He couldn't help it he still loved her and the thought of her leaving when he didn't know if he would ever see her again was too much to bear. He wanted her back in his life and in his heart. Kat went up to Tommy and put her hand on his arm and said "Tommy honey just let her go."

"HONEY" screamed Kim. "Are you two still together?"

"We are" stated Kat. "In fact" wanting to rub it in "you guys were only broken up for five days before we first made love to each other."

Kim's face went completely white as she whispered a soft spoken "No." With that she turned to walk away. Upon hearing this Tommy knew that if he didn't reach her soon he would most likely lose her forever. She almost made it twenty steps before she felt two strong hands wrap themselves around her from behind. As Tommy laid his head on her back he whispered "Don't leave me." Something inside Kim broke at that and she started crying. "Let me go" she begged.

"No. I can't. I am not even sure I would know how to but I know that I don't ever want to let you go again."

"Tommy…. Please" she sobbed

"Not until we get past this. I need you more than I need air to breathe" Tommy said. Instead of answering Kim just sobbed harder. Jason got sick of watching someone who was like a sister to him crying like that. So he went over to them and started to pull Tommy off of her. Tommy tried to fight off Jason so he could get back to Kim but Adam jumped in and started helping Jason.

"KIMBERLY" Tommy shouted. "Jason get off of me. I need to see and hold her. I need to get her back and the only way to do that is to be there for her."

Even though Kimberly was still crying something inside of her recognized his words and before she knew it all of her anger once again bubbled up to the surface. She stopped crying and before anyone could register what was happening she walked right past Jason and Adam and right up to Tommy. She wouldn't even acknowledge the look of pure relief and love all across his face. Before she could talk herself out of it she smacked him hard across the face again. She went to do it again but Adam was too quick and he pulled her back before she could. "What was that for Kim?" asked Tommy as everyone else stood dumfounded at the events that just happened.

From the author:

I'm sorry. But there are way too many stories that make it so easy for them to get back together. I believe love needs to weather some storms. Any who I would love to read any reviews you all would like to leave. Let me know if this story is okay or should I just start again?
