Chapter 3: Tommy Meets Carrie

October 18, 1996

8 am

Kim woke up to the smell of pancakes and scrambled eggs as she sat up in bed. She looked, and the bassinets were not in the room. Jason and Trini must've taken them and put them in the living room, she thought to herself as she got up, put her housecoat on and went to the kitchen.

Trini was at the stove, busy cooking and Jason and Tommy were holding the twins and giving them their bottles.

"Told you I'd be back," Tommy said, holding JT, who was cooing softly after finishing his bottle. Tommy started to burp him.

"How was your extended sleep? We'd thought to let you sleep in for a change," Jason said starting to burp Amelia.

"It was good, thank you," Kim said as a horn honked. Kim looked out the window and saw a blond young girl wave to the cab driver as she went up to the house and opened the door.

"Honey, I'm home!" Carrie Valetti called out as Kim gave her a huge hug and greeted her.

"Welcome home, Care Bear! Congratulations on winning gold!" Kim said as Trini came out of the kitchen and hugged Carrie.

"Thank you! Which reminds me, here you go!" Carrie said handing her one of her gold medals.

"Oh, Carrie, you don't…" Kim started to say but Carrie shushed her.

"I have to…I promised that if I won any medal on the balance beam it would be yours because the balance beam was your thing," Carrie said.

"Thank you!" Kim said as she gave Carrie another hug.

Carrie caught a glimpse of Tommy and whistled.

"Man, Kim, the guy that knocked you up is cute!" Carrie said as Tommy blushed.

"Carrie, shush! Tommy, Carrie Valetti, Carrie, Tommy Oliver," Kim introduced them.

"You are so freaking ho…ow! I mean, nice to meet you," Carrie said as Trini punched her in the arm.

"Same here. She sounds a lot like Rocky," Tommy whispered to Jason, who nodded in agreement.

"Who's Rocky?" Carrie said, eavesdropping.

"I'll explain later," Kim said as she took Carrie's luggage and walked toward her bedroom, which was now also Carrie's bedroom.

"Well, I hate to leave so soon but my flight leaves in an hour. I have to go to the airport to check in and everything," Tommy said as he handed JT to Trini, gathered his things, and headed towards the door.

"Okay. Kim, Tommy's leaving now!" Trini said as Kim ran to the living room.

"Leaving so soon?" Kim asked.

"Yeah, my mom wants me back by tonight for school tomorrow. I'll call as soon as I get back home, okay?" Tommy said.

"Okay. It was nice seeing you Tommy. Have a safe trip back," Kim said giving him a hug.

"Thank you," Tommy said as he gave the twins a kiss each on their foreheads, said goodbye to Kim, Trini, and Jason, and left the house. He loaded his things in the cab's trunk, got in, and the cab drove off.

"Kim, your ex-boyfriends got a cute butt!" Carrie shouted from the bedroom. Kim, Trini, and Jason just laughed and shook their heads.
