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 5

Later that night Tommy took Kat home. While sitting in his suv she turned to him and said "Tommy I am not completely blameless in this whole mess. What I saw today I never want to see from my boyfriend ever again. The thing is that even after it was pointed out to you, you still didn't stop and think about my feelings. I have given you everything that I can and now I know what it is like not to feel like I am enough for a person. I don't want someone who is going to settle for me. I want someone who sees me as if I am the only person in the world.. Someone who they can't live without. As much and as deeply as I care for you I know you are not that person for me. I love you but we are over. You will still have me as a friend but I deserve better than what I got today and you won't be honest with yourself if you think after today you can give me that."

Tommy looked at Kat and knew she was right. He couldn't give her that. He wouldn't. So long as his heart belonged to another he could not keep hurting her. "I don't deserve you Kat. I'm glad we can remain friends though. I am truly sorry I acted the way I did in front of you. It is just.. I need her. I need her in every way a person can need another."

Kat nodded and didn't ask more. She knew who "she" was. "Good luck Tommy. I truly hope this whole mess can get worked out as I know you still love her. She loves you too you know that right?"

Tommy started to object but Kat continued "if she didn't love you she would not have been this hurt by everything. You are still her world you just need to prove to her that you can earn that back. She will never admit it to you otherwise. Well now I need to go inside it is almost midnight and it has been a long day. Good night to you Tommy. I will see you soon."

Kat got out of the suv and went into her house. After closing the door she felt strangely at peace as she knew she made the right decision this time. "I am so sorry Kim" she whispered to herself. "I am sorry for my part in all of this and if you can get past everything and forgive Tommy your love will be stronger than ever before. He will not let you down again."

Tommy sat in front of Kats house for a few minutes longer. He wanted to see Kim. He wanted to see her so bad right now. He knew she was staying alone in her childhood home and he also knew she would be sleeping right now. "Hmm" he thought "maybe I can sneak in like old times and watch her sleep like I used to do." Deciding that was what he was going to do he started the car and drove away heading in the direction of Kim's place. Once there he parked the car and started to climb the tree that was next to her bedroom window. "She still leaves it open" he thought as he smiled to himself. After climbing in and seeing her laying on the bed in her peaceful slumber he knew he couldn't just sit across the room and watch. God help him his body seemed to move without his permission as he took off his shoes before laying next to her and wrapping his arms around her on the bed.

Kim ever so slightly woke. Still being mostly asleep she decided that the man next to her was just part of the wonderful dream she had been having. Her dreams has been so vivid that she thought nothing more of it as she closed her eyes again. "I love you Tommy" she whispered to what she thought was herself.

Upon hearing that it felt like someone had put the sunshine back into his heart. "I love you too my beautiful Kim. I love you so much my heart sings from it." He could not hold back anymore. He didn't want to. He wanted this beautiful woman more than he has ever wanted anything. So he, in his mind, did nothing wrong as he leaned in and started to kiss her. First on the lips then moving down to her neck. Kimberly thought it was still some delicious dream and because of that was only partly awake for everything that happened. She let Tommy kiss her. She kissed him back with all the passion and love from earlier that she tried to hide. So when her "dream" Tommy started to remove their clothes she thought nothing of it and let him make love to her. After they were done she snuggled closer to him and smiled to herself. Tommy was absolutely elated at what they had just done and he stayed the whole night smiling as he drifted off to sleep holding the person he loved more than anything.

Nothing had been talked about after the park between the couple. Kimberly went to sleep just as hurt as when she left the playground area. Her dreams was the only time she let herself be with the man she loved the most in the world. She wanted him to show her that this time it would be different for them. She wanted him to earn her back and she wasn't going to let her love for him be the ace in his pocket. As long as she was awake she had the strength to keep him at bay.

As the sun started to rise so did Kim. She felt herself start coming out of her dream. What she didn't understand though was why she continued to feel someone next to her. Her dreams never were this vivid so close to waking up. As she opened her eyes she saw Tommy sleeping peacefully next to her with his arms still around her. All at once she remembered her "dream" and realized that it was not a dream at all but something that actually happened. "My god!" she thought "does he know that he took complete advantage of me as I was sleeping?" All at once she felt sick. She immediately threw Tommy's arm off of her, causing him to wake with a confused expression on his face, and she ran and locked herself in her bathroom that was in the bedroom. She turned on all the water she could and started to cry. Once she started she couldn't' stop. "He took advantage of me" she thought over and over.

Tommy was once again dumbfounded. "What went wrong this time? Last night was absolutely wonderful. What has her running to the bathroom like that?"

Tommy walked over to the door and gently knocked "Kim? Kim are you alright?" He kept asking for the better part of an hour but he never got a response. All he could figure out was something was wrong and he was probably the reason for it. As time went on he got more and more worried. She had been in there for 2 hours now and she was showing no signs of coming out and facing him. Short of breaking down the door he did the only thing he could. He got dressed and called Jason and Billy for help as they knew her the best .. Well next to him of course.

From the author:

Poor Tommy.. I swear he will get it soon. I wonder though how Jason and Billy will react when they find out what had happened….
