-1Tommy's heart begin to race. "quit it oliver!" Tommy thought to himself as the short petite brunette made her way towards them. "she's changed." Tommy thought. Her hair was long and brown with little hints of blonde highlights. Kim had her hair perfectly pulled back in a low pony tail, her smile aged, but the same sweet smile he remembered. As Kim approached he once again got snapped out of his own thoughts when Conner spoke up.

Dude, Kim that was amazing. Connor said

Thanks Connor and Kira you were really good! Kim smiled.

Really? I mean how good? Good enough for the tour? Kira questioned.

Kim's eyes drifted off and she bit her lip. "well…you know I…." Kim's eyes looked back at Kira. "I don't think it's good enough for the tour…"

"Oh…well that okay…." Kira's heart sank.

"Kira I don't think its good enough…I think it's PERFECT!" Kim smiled.

"Oh my gosh! No way! Thank you so much!" Kira squealed.

"See Kira I told you she'd love you!" Ethan smiled.

Kim's eyes darted over at Tommy. She hadn't seen him in a long time. Not since Trini's funeral. The last thing she heard was that Tommy was still in college. Connor said that he's teacher is going to be with him. Tommy's a teacher ? Sounds like him, but Dr. O?

Kim laughed. "So I'm guessing your Dr. O Tommy?"

Connor laughed, "Yeah I didn't know you guys were friends in high school."

"more like kindred spirits," Kim winked.

Ethan's eyes got big. "Dr. O, was she…."

Yeah Ethan, Kim was a power ranger. The Pink Ranger. Tommy said.

Kim's eyes got big. Power Rangers? You mean, she pointed at all of them.

Yeah, these are the Dino Rangers, well they were. Tommy Started.

Wow, Kim looked at all of them, so guessing by your clothes. Connor, red ranger. Ethan, Blue Ranger. And Kira, you are Yellow. And let me guess Tommy, you black. Kim's eyes darkened. Well that doesn't surprise me Tommy, can't stay away from the power can ya.

Tommy looked at her with questions in his eyes. Kira laughed yeah, Dr. O decided to be like every color I think.

Kim laughed at Kira. Well you know what. I would really love to stay and chat, but I have to go meet up with Matt and start scheduling you in with my shows. Kira I will call you tomorrow, I don't leave for a few days, we'll do lunch okay.

Okay Kim, thank you again. Kira started

My Pleasure really. Bye Connor, Ethan.

Kim glared at Tommy, then smiled. I hope life's treated you kind. Then Kim ran towards the door.

Tommy stood up, not knowing whether to chase her to see what's wrong or to sit back down. He hasn't even talked to Kim in years, what if she's not the same. The old would open up to him, but maybe she's changed. His old instincts kicked in. If he knew her like he thought so, he probably was still sitting outside the place. Collecting her thoughts before she took off. She always did that when she really needed someone to talk to. And from the look she gave him before she left. There was something she wanted to say. So Tommy excused himself and took off for the door. When Tommy got outside, sure enough there was Kim sitting on the bench kicking the dirt from her shoes.

Waiting for someone? Tommy smiled

You know me to well you know that? Kim smiled.

Yeah well, time changes things, but not all the time people. Tommy laughed.

I don't know about that. Kim looked down.

Wanna go for a walk? Tommy smiled.

Sure. Kim.

They walked in silence for awhile just staring straight ahead. Both not know what to say. Or really what needed to be said. Was there really anything to say? Memories and unanswered questions floated in Tommy's head. Though the questions he never got answered don't seem relevant to the present. Bringing it up probably wasn't that good of an idea.

So Kim, what's new in your life. Tommy laughed

Kim laughed. Well since its been years since I last saw you or talked to you. A lot.

Yeah, well I guess at Trini's funeral we didn't say too much. Tommy lowered his eyes

Yeah, well I wasn't really ready to talk about my life then. My best friend just died. Kim stared at Tommy.

I know I know kim. Tommy started.

I know it is Tommy. Well what do you want to know? Kim said

Tommy started, start with after the whole Marantheus issue. Tommy laughed.

Ahh the long version, Kim laughed. Okay, well as you know Jase and I went back to Florida and he went to college, since he graduated from Angel Grove early. I finished high school at Miami Central High School. Then went to Florida State University where I got a degree in Fashion Merchindise.

Wow didn't see that one coming…Tommy teased.

Kim gave him a playful punch. Shut up Tommy at least I know I have great fashion! ANYWAYS…to make the rest short got a apartment in Miami, worked for a boutique on the strip and been there ever since.

What about the whole singing thing? Tommy asked.

Ahhh well, that I always was singing in the open mic, nights where I met Matt, recorded my own album and now just seeing where this takes me. I'm not looking to make millions, just wanting to share my music with people.

So Matt is your husband? Tommy said.

Matt? Kim laughed.

Well with the last name of Miller I figured you might be…Tommy started.

Married? Kim smiled. Tommy no, Miller is a stage name. Kim Hart was a New Zealand female artist who had a number of chart single success in the early 80's in Australia and I was completely in live with her work. So out of respect for her. I opted a stage name so I could make a name for myself.

Tommy, somewhat was relieved. Though he didn't know why.

Kim looked at him, why would you care Tommy. Its not like you ever wanted to marry me anyways.

Tommy snapped up. What's that suppose to mean.

You know what that means Tommy. Kim snapped.

Tommy had no clue what she was talking about. He wanted to stop this fight that they were getting ready to engage in but he blurted out. "we'd be together if it wasn't for you and that stupid letter and you cheating on me!"

Kim snapped back. "What was I suppose to do Tommy? Just sit around and wait for you to stop hanging all over Kat and spending every second with her. I'm not stupid Tommy I talked to your parents, I talked to Adam, rocky, Billy. I knew you guys were babysitting together, doing school projects, going to mall. Tommy, felt replaced. So I started hanging out with this guy named Nick. He was sweet and caring, he understood what I was going through. Finally one night I called you and your mom said that you were with Kat, and she asked if me and you had broken up. Tommy I had it. So I wrote you that letter. I figured that if you wanted to be with her then you should do it.

Tommy snapped, but I didn't want to be with her, I wanted to be with you!

Oh really tommy then why was it that you never called or even wanted to know why? Why was it Tommy that when I came back, you were dating her. WHY TOMMY? I'll tell you why. You wanted to be with her. So you know what, I moved on. Jase and I dated before muranthis. He was there for my acident. That's right Tommy I was in a car accident and it almost took my life. But did you know, no you didn't. Why Tommy because you were out with Kat when jase called you to tell you it was bad. He told your mom to have you call back, but you know what you never did. It was always OH Kim the Rangers this and sorry I was with Kat. It was always what the team needed. I just with that you for once had though of me. AND THAT'S WHY WE ARE NOT TOGETHER OR EVER WILL BE!

Tommy fumed as Kim ranted, but slowly began to lower his head. For the first time ever when it can came to this issue with Kim, he was ashamed. Kim looked at him for answers but Tommy just stood there by the lake in reef side park where they stopped. Kim rolled her eyes.

I guess some things will never change. You still won't give me answers or reason's. Well this time I'm sticking around for as long as I did the last time. With that Kim turned around and walked away and Tommy just let her. She was right and he couldn't stop her. He didn't deserve to make her.
