Chapter 27: Tommy's Not So Little Secret
Tommy and Kim's House, Reefside
September 8, 2004

There has been some commotion going on in Tommy and Kim's house lately. JT and Amelia were busy getting ready to start the second grade at Reefside Elementary School, Brielle and Bennett were busy with starting to walk and get into things, especially the pots and pans in the kitchen, and Tommy was working on something in the basement.
Which was annoying Kim, because he wouldn't tell her what he was doing.
Tommy had gotten a teaching job at Reefside High School teaching 12th grade science shortly after he got his doctorate. Anton Mercer gave him an excellent reference which got him the job right away.
Now school was starting in a week and Kim had no clue what her husband was up to. But she was too busy to care, chasing after year and a half old babies and tending to her older children, going school supply shopping and clothes shopping.
There was a knock on the door. Kim went to answer it.
"Hey Jason and Trini, come on in," Kim said as Jason and Trini came in.
"Hey firebird, we've got some good news!" Jason said as Trini nodded excitedly.
"Oh my gosh, are you…?" Kim started to say.
"Yes! I'm pregnant!" Trini screamed.
Kim screamed as well as the two of them started to hug and jump up and down.
"When did you find out?" Kim asked.
"A few days ago. I took a test, two lines, and we got it confirmed at the doctors' today," Trini said.
"When are you due?"
"In April, mid-April to be exact."
"We have the sonogram picture to prove it," Jason said showing Kim the sonogram picture.
"Yep, that's a baby all right. It may be tiny, but just wait a few months from now, it'll be a little bigger and starting to move around," Kim said.
"Yeah, I can't wait for that to happen," Trini said as Rocky and Carrie came in, Carrie carrying Junior in her arms.
"Hey, guys, what's all the fuss?" Carrie asked.
"Trini's pregnant!" Kim said.
"Really?! Congratulations!" Carrie said as she gave Trini and Jason hugs.
Rocky was busy raiding Kim and Tommy's fridge. After he got the stuff out for his sandwich, he noticed a dinosaur on the kitchen counter.
"What's this do?" Rocky wondered, twisting the dinosaur's head. An opening noise sounded.
Suddenly the door to the basement opened.
"Whoa," Rocky said as he left what he was doing and went downstairs to the basement.
He was shocked at what he saw.
Tommy was busy installing the monitors when Rocky came up behind him.
"You know, when your wife finds out about this, she's going to be pissed!" Rocky said startling Tommy.
"Rocky! How did you…" Tommy started to say.
"The dinosaur on the kitchen counter, duh!" Rocky said.
"Look, Kim can't find out about this…" Tommy said.
"Kim can't find out about what?" a voice sounded behind Tommy and Rocky.
Tommy gulped.
"Busted!" Rocky said.
"Thomas James Oliver, you better have a good explanation for this…this place, or else…" Kim said.
"Or what, beautiful?" Tommy asked weakly.
"How fast can you spell divorce?" Kim asked.
"Kim, I can explain. It's just a place where I can conduct further research on the things I was working on on the island before it blew up," Tommy said.
"Yeah, right, Tommy, I know you too well," Kim said.
"It's just research, beautiful. I can't say what yet, but I'll let you know soon, promise," Tommy said.
"Fine, I'll believe you, for now. Just don't try to make too much noise, okay?" Kim said turning to go upstairs.
"Okay, beautiful," Tommy said as she out of sight.
"What are you really doing down here besides research?" Rocky asked.
"Can't say exactly. Top secret," Tommy said.
"Sure, it is," Rocky said as he went back upstairs.
