Tommy and Kimberly spent the whole time in the inner tubes floating in the water, talking. They lost track of time and realized they didn't have time do anything else. Kimberly noticed that some of the lights were off outside room. She realized that it was close to closing time.
"Tommy, I think it is close to closing time," stated Kimberly. "We better get out of the pool, and to go to the locker room and get dressed."
"I didn't realize that four hours could pass so quick," answered Tommy. "I would definitely would like for us to reserve a pool again sometime. We haven't had a normal day in a long time."
They got out of the water and headed to the door. When they reached the door, they realized some of the lights were out. It was probably close to closing time. Kimberly went to open the door, but she couldn't.
"Kim, what's wrong?"
"I don't know, I can't get the door to open. Looks like we are stuck here all night."
"Tommy, I thought we only reserved the room for about four hours."
"I think I know what happened?"
"What?"
"I noticed something on the paper that we filled out. It was about specials on Holidays and during the summers."
"What were the specials?"
"Kimberly, I must have accidently marked the wrong thing."
"What was that?"
"There was a place where you could mark how long you wanted to reserve the room. Usually a room can be reserved for four hours. But, the special was having longer time, which was 6 to 12 hours. I must have accidently marked the wrong box."
"So are you saying we're here all night?"
"I'm afraid so."
Kimberly couldn't believe what happened. They just wanted a normal day with no ranger duties. It looked like they were getting what they wanted.
"Can we at least go to locker room to change?"
"Kim, the door is locked. We can't get to the locker room. We are going to have to stay in the clothes that we are wearing."
"So we are going to have to wear wet clothes all night long?!"
"Yes, but there is a hot tub. If we get tired, we can sleep in there tonight."
"Guess, you are right."
Kira and Trent were talking about what happened to Tommy and Kimberly, back at her house. They wondered if Dr. O and Kim would realize what really happened. How would they react, if they found that some of their students were behind it?
"Trent, are you sure we did the right thing?"
"Yes, Dr.O and Kim said they were really close like we are. They have been through a lot together. Everybody knows they have feelings for each other. Neither one can hide it. They are scared and don't know what they want because of Elsa and Mesogog. We know they want to be together. After they have a few normal days together, they will be able to decide what they want."
"I know, but we are engaged too."
"So are Dr. O and Kim. He's afraid that because they are both rangers, it will effect their marriage. I think he's afraid it won't last."
"We had some complicated things like that before you gave me the ring. I remember last year, when you had surgery. You found out you couldn't have children. But it didn't make a difference to me."
"Yes, Kira I know. We want Kim and Dr. O to realize the same thing. Small things won't make a difference to either of them."
"Now that you are talking, I have an idea!"
"Kira, what is it?"
"Hopefully, they are having a good time. I was thinking that we would do something else for them."
"What would that be?"
"Trent, tomorrow is the day before new years eve. I was thinking that on New Years Eve, we arrange for a special event for them."
"Where at?"
"I was thinking Angel Grove. They meet in Angel Grove. I heard that he asked Kim to the dance close to the lake. The Command Center was in Angel Grove. They hung out at the juice bar. And his relatives had a cabin there."
"I like the idea, but how it is going to be a special event?"
"Trent, I have already called Aisha. She has agreed to make Kimberly's dress."
"What does it look like?"
"It's pink, the skirt is mid-length, it's floral print, it's satin, and it is strapless."
"When did you ask Aisha do this?"
"When we left the youth center. She has sewing machine and she said it would be done by tomorrow after noon. She is driving down to give Kim the dress."
"What's Kim going to say?"
"Aisha and I have it covered. She's going to invite Dr.O and Kim to a formal event. She's going to give them a list of places the events are and have them pick?"
"Which ones will the go to?"
"The beach, the place by the lake (where Tommy asked her to the dance), the beach, and I heard one of his relatives had a cabin some where in Angel Grove."
"What do we do, We're suppose to follow them and stay out of sight until the last mintute. It's all taken care of. Tomorrow they will get the invitation."
Back at the youth center, Tommy and Kimberly were back at the youth center inside the room with the big pool. It was getting colder because it was late at night. They knew that it wouldn't be safe to go to the tanning bed to stay warm. And they couldn't remain in the pool. They knew that they were going to have to spend the remainder of their time in the hot tub.
Tommy and Kimberly got up from the edge of the pool and walked over to the hot tub. It was big enough to hold four people. They took a seat. When they sat down, the water was up to their shoulders. Tommy had mixed emotions about the incident. He was glad that he got to have a lot of time with Kimberly. But, he wished that they weren't having to spend the rest of their time in the hot tub.
"Kim, I'm sorry about this incident."
"Why would you be?"
"I made a mistake, and we have to spend a cold night in this room. And because we have to stay in the hot tub all night."
"I actually like the hot tub. It feels like warm blankets."
"So are you aren't mad?"
"Tommy, of course not. I've enjoyed spending time with you. I wish we could do it more often."
"I wish it could be every day."
Tommy noticed that Kimberly was getting sleepy. It was probably close to mid-night. He was feeling tired too. Tommy knew that they needed to try to get some sleep.
"Kim, it's getting late. We probably need to try to get some sleep."
"I wouldn't mind getting some sleep."
Tommy put his arm around Kimberly as she was dozing off. After she dozed off, her headed landed on his shoulder. After he knew Kimberly was asleep, Tommy closed his eyes and feel asleep. He had enjoyed the day.
