Kimberly was real happy with Tommy at first. Although, she loved Tommy she misses having her family around. She was used to have a lot of children running around. Now it was just her and Tommy living next door to his parents. Tommy could see that Kim was sad.
"Beautiful what is wrong?" Tommy asked.
"Nothing." Kim said sadly.
"You can't lie to me. Something is wrong?" Tommy said.
"You will think I am crazy." Kim said.
"No, I won't. Talk to me." Tommy said.
"I miss my family. I miss my nieces. Tommy I can't have children. I have that child-bearing disease that killed my real mother. She died in childbirth, if I got pregnant, I could also die. I am never going to have children." Kimberly said.
"We could adopt, you know. We have this huge house so we have the room. We don't have to wait. We can go know and get started in the adoption process." Tommy said.
"You really mean it. You really want to adopt. Wait we are only seventeen, how can we adopt." Kim asked.
"We will go down to the orphanage and see what we can do." Tommy commented.
They went down to the orphanage and spoke to the woman in charge, Mrs. Leith. Mrs. Leith wasn't sure if 2 teens were capable of caring for a child. Tommy convinced her either wise. Mrs. Leith told them that there were 2 small children, a newborn baby girl and her 2 year old sister.
"I thought that anyone would want a baby, especially a newborn?" Tommy asked.
"They do want Cassidy, but they are not willing to take her sister Melody, and I don't want to separate the two. Melody has lost so much lately, her father died 5 months ago in an accident and her mother just died giving birth to Cassidy." Mrs. Leith explained.
"We would love to take both girls." Kim said.
"You can take them now if you want. I don't usually do things like this, or allow 2 seventeen-year-olds take 2 small children. However, I think that you two are the most responsible kids I have ever seen." Mrs. Leith said.
Mrs. Leith led Tommy and Kimberly to meet the 2 small children. Cassidy was laying in the crib and Melody was sitting on the floor playing.
"Melody, I would like you to meet your parents. This is Kimberly and Tommy. They are taking both you and Cassidy." Mrs. Leith said.
Melody ran up and gave her new parents a hug as Mrs. Leith picked up Cassidy and handed her to Tommy. Tommy and Kim took the kids by the baby store to pick up what they would need for 2 small children. They spent hours at the store, enjoying every moment of it.
"Tommy, how are we going to tell our parents about the girls?" Kimberly asked.
"Carefully, very carefully!" He replied as they put the kids back into the car seats the orphanage gave them.
They drove home. Robin and Patrick were in their front yard when Tommy drove up. He saw them coming towards his car. This was definitely the downside to be living next door to his parents. If he tells his parents that they don't like this. His and Kimberly's parents will make them move back home until they are 18.
"Well Beautiful, this is it, time to face the truth." Tommy said.
Kim looked in the mirror and saw the two sleeping girls who are exhausted after their day of shopping. Tommy stopped the car in the driveway. Robin and Patrick saw the girls.
"Who are they?" Robin asked.
"Our daughters, we adopted them." Tommy told his parents.
"Adopting them, you are just 17. How did anyone let you two adopt?" Patrick asked.
"They were sisters who were going to be separated, and the woman who runs orphanage didn't want to separate them." Kim explained.
"We manage to convince them we were responsible enough to care for them." Tommy said. He regretted saying that, the moment the words left his mouth.
"Responsible! How responsible can 2 teenagers really be, to adopt 2 small children?" Robin said.
"Kimberly, why don't you take the girls in the house?" Tommy said.
Kimberly took Melody out of her car seat and went around to the other side of the car to grab Cassidy's carrier. After Kim went inside, Tommy was standing their alone with his parents. Tommy knew this wasn't going to go good. He is still seventeen, and his parents can still force him to move back home.
Tommy followed his parents into his old house and they laid into him.
"I think the 4 of you should move in here. The house will still be there after you are 18." Robin said.
"Mom, we'll be fine. Kimberly and I are perfectly capable of caring for the girls." Tommy said.
"Fine, but, we'll be watching you 2. Any problems and you will be back to living here and we will take care of those girls." Patrick said.
"Fine, but there will not be any problems." Tommy said and headed home.
Tommy got home and Kim was waiting for him.
"So how did it go?" Kim asked.
"Okay, they will be watching us. Your parents will probably also be watching us as well. Mom wants us to move in there. Dad said any problems and he will force us and they will be the ones to take custody of the girls." Tommy explained.
"We won't have any problems; you, I and the girls will be just fine together." Kim said kissing him.
"Where are the girls?" Tommy asked.
"Asleep upstairs. I choose a room for each of them. Cassidy in that playpen and Melody is sleeping in the dollhouse toddler bed that we bought." Kim said.
Tommy carried Kim to their room and they made love. They were a family now, a mom, a dad and 2 little girls. They just had to keep their little family together, which will be difficult when their parents will be watching every move they make, just waiting for them to make a mistake where the girls are concerned.
