Tommy's Penthouse -NEXT day-

Tommy walked back and forth pacing throughout his room trying to figure out the sudden feelings he has had for the petite brunette in the park. So many things ran through his mind. How was he going to sleep with her within the 30day time limit his friends gave him? For once in his life he was unsure of himself and that scared the hell out of him. Then he looked over to the blonde that had shared his bed for months now….Katherine. He could never have feelings for her no matter how hard his father urges him to. He couldn't help but replay all the things that happened last night when he got home.

Last night

When Tommy arrived to his penthouse. He still could not understand what was going on with him. Why was this woman so special? Of course she is beautiful and obviously very smart but she was different, he could not put his figure on how much he actually liked the girl the first time he met her. As he walked up to his door he noticed it was unlocked.

"What the hell…I know I locked this door when I left earlier" he said thinking carefully. He lived in the best part of town in which it is rare for a break in so that immediately left his mind. Tommy knew how to take care of himself everyone knew it. He had known karate since he was able to walk, his father made sure of that. He opens the door and walks in surprised by what he sees.

"Tommy…I have been looking all over for you where have you been" Katherine says sitting on his leather sofa in nothing but her silk white see through teddy that Tommy always liked. Tommy then looked at her again and saw a vision of the petite brunette Kimberly walking towards him. He was instantly turned never knew how badly he had wanted to ravish the beautiful brunette until he saw her when he looked at Katherine. Instantly he was snapped out of his daydream by Katherine's annoying questions.

"Earth to Tommy…Where were you…I have been looking for you all day…Imagine my surprise when I noticed that you where gone when I got here earlier…ugh you know it was our day" she said frustrated But all Tommy did was smile he did remember that they were suppose to spend the day with together but a big piece of him was glad that he didn't because he never would have met Kimberly.

"TOMMY ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME" she yelled finally fed up with Tommy's whole demeanor. His mind went back to the brunette at the park and he continues to smile as he turns around and walks over to his liquor cabinet to pour himself a drink. The way his mind was spinning he knew he needed a vodka strait.

"Yeah… Katherine I heard you" He said calmly after drinking down his drink in one sip. Then he walked over to her and asked "How did you get into my house"

"Your father gave me a copy of the key after I called everyone asking where you were…matter of fact where were you Tommy…cause you damn sure was not in my bed…So who is she?" Tommy had had enough of Katherine's irritating questions so instead of answering her; he took her by her small waist softly pulling her toward him and kissed her on the lips.

"There's no one but you" Tommy said still kissing her when he let her go he saw an image of Kimberly again while looking at Katherine. He could not believe how beautiful Kimberly was. He pulled her to his room kissing her continuously...When they reached his bed Tommy laid Kat down on his bed as they began ripping at each other's clothing…when they were both naked Tommy laid on top of her and stared at the beautiful vision of Kimberly as he made love to Katherine.

End Flashback

He had finally had enough…after believing that he had sex with Kimberly last night gave him a sense of relief and excitement until the next morning he looked and there was no Kimberly just Katherine. He knew he needed to see her again. But it was only 9:30am she couldn't possibly be awake but her went on hope that she was and picked up the phone to call her.

Ring Ring

"Hello" she answers groggy as if she was half asleep

"Yes, hi may I speak to Kimberly?" he asked nervously but yet surprised at how nervous he is.

"Yes, this is her…who is this" she asked confused

"Uh…It's Tommy"

Kimberly's apartment

After her first meeting with Tommy, she was incredibly lost in thought the entire way back to her apartment. All in one day she met the most amazingly gorgeous man she had ever laid eyes on. He was strong, gallant, and handsome was some of the words that she can think of to describe him, just after one meeting she knew then she was bit by the bug. She felt like finally fate had sent her, her own prince charming. When she got into her apartment she was not surprised at who was waiting for her.

"How did I know you were going to be here" she asked quickly as the smile on her face turned into a playful frown.

"It's a twin thing I guess" he lied

"Wes…"she said a little annoyed "ugh…I really wish I haven't given you a key"

"Come on Kimmy… lighten up…you already know I was going to come over and check on you…" Wes said playfully

"Yeah you're right…"she sighed "well at least you didn't bring our whole family again" she giggled then shook at the memory of all her brothers in one room scaring her last date so bad he wouldn't call or even look her in the eye in school.

Flashback

Jamie Clarks shows up to Kimberly's apartment early for their date. Kimberly and Jamie met during their sophomore year of college. Kimberly though he was nice, interesting, tall, mysterious. He was about 5'8, 150pds of mostly muscle, he was arrogant and very egoistic but he never showed that part of himself to Kimberly because he wanted her. To him she was the most gorgeous girl in school and he knew he had to have her but his plans were shot down when Kimberly's best friends Trini and Aisha both had bad feelings about him and decided to interfere by calling her brother Wes and telling him what was going on but the truth is all Wes heard was date and that was all he needed for his anger to flair out. "Okay I'll handle it" was his final words to them. Unfortunately Wes was not alone, his brothers where all there listening to his conversation with the girls.

"So what happened Bro" Hunter asked wondering why his older brother was so tense.

"Yeah… what's going on" Blake said also wondering

"I also would like to know the answer to that question" Connor added

"It seems our little sister has a date tonight…"Wes said disturbed

"I'll get the keys" Connor ran to the kitchen to retrieve Wes's keys

"Blake and I will meet you in the car" Hunter said as Blake nodded as he ran out the door to Wes car.

"Alright….lets go" he said as Connor handed him his keys.

The boys were all on their way over to Kimberly's apartment. Wes knocked on the door once and Kimberly answered and was surprised at the scene. All of her brothers at her doorstep…she knew now was the wrong time for them to be here since her date would arrive soon. She let them all in…Wes came in first giving Kimberly a hug and a kiss on the cheek, then Hunter also gave Kim a hug and a kiss on her forehead . Following Blake who took on his protective persona and gave her a bear hug, then he was pushed aside by Connor who was eager to hug his sister.

"Not that I'm complaining…" she said as Connor let her go "but what are you guys doing here" she said wary. The guys looked at Wes for the answer.

"Well little sister…."he said trying quickly to remember his reason he had for them coming over "We…." just then there was a knock on the door.

"Oh no" she said as she ran to the door to answer it "Jamie hi…." She said as she opened the door. "Hello, Kimberly" he smiled his famous crooked smile that drove girls wild.

"You are early …"she said happily as she hugged him

"I couldn't wait to see you" he said as she smiled at him

"Well…I'm not finish getting ready but you can come in…"

"Sure…I would love to…"he smiled as she turned around she remembered her brothers were in the living room…

"Um before we go in… my brothers are in there…"

"Say no more" he said as he kissed her hand softly "I'd love to meet them" she blushed softly as they walked into her apartment she cleared her voice as she walked hand and hand with Jamie into her apartment…the guys all turned to look at them.

"Guys this is Jamie" Kim announced

"Jamie these guys…are my brothers…Wes, Hunter, Blake, and my baby brother Connor" they all stood up immediately taking on their own big brother persona, they had hard looks on their faces that screamed touch our sister and die. Jamie was immediately nervous none of the brothers were friendly not even the younger one. They all wore a vile frowns on their faces which terrified him. Jamie kept his smile on his face as he said hi to them.

"Um…Jamie give me 10 minutes and I'm all yours" she said as she excused herself turning to her brothers silently asking them to be nice. Jamie automatically saw the change in their facial expressions it seems like their expressions became softer just at the sight of their sister.

"Be good guys please" Kimberly begged as she walked into her room and shut the door softly

"We will Kimmy" her brothers all said together. When she was out of sight the brothers all went back to sending Jamie evil glares. Wes finally spoke up as he spotted Jamie looking at his sister's butt which immediately ticked him off.

"Don't even think about it" he said angrily…Jamie looked at him confused "I saw you looking at my sisters ass"

"What!" Hunter said now infuriated, Blake was ready to pound on him, and Connor just stared bullets into him.

Jamie was speechless…"uh I...uh"

"I seriously hope you don't think we are idiots" Hunter said bitterly folding his arms

"Yeah… we know what kind of guy you are" Blake said walking up standing next to Hunter whom was almost in Jamie's face

"And we are going to tell you this once" Connor said now standing next to Blake

"Stay the hell away from our sister" Wes finished clearly ready to beat the guy to a bloody pulp. All the brothers stood together with evil glares on their faces which made Jamie back away.

"Look guys I don't want any problems" he said now completely nervous

"You see our sister…is the most important part of our lives…our main role is to protect her from scum like you…." Wes said angered

"We will protect her from you…even if that means beating the hell out of you all over California" Hunter said fuming

"If you think we are joking with you try us…"Blake said confidently, unknown to Jamie all the guys are exceptional martial artist.

"Look guys I really like your sister" Jamie said trying to win them over but they didn't even bat a lash. They were hell bent on keeping him away from their sister at all cost.

"Get this through your head…our sister is way too good for you…we already know what you want..."Connor said as Wes interrupted him taking Jamie and shoving him into the wall hard but not hard enough that Kim could hear…he was careful about that.

"You will not make my sister another one of your one nighters you got that… because trust me…if you hurt her and I know you will…there will be hell to pay… there is not a place you can hide that I won't be looking and I don't care if we have to wreck all of California to do it but we will find you and you will pay…you got that" He yelled as the brothers smirked they heard Kim's bedroom door open…he immediately dropped Jamie as Kim looked and saw Jamie breathing hard on the floor.

"Oh my gosh…what happened" she said as she ran over to him

"We were just talking to him Kimmy" Wes said as the others agreed

"Talking…since when did talking end up when a man's on the floor gasping for air" she said angry all the while Jamie was lying still trying to catch his breath…

"Kim….Kim…"he said grasping Kim's attention she looked so beautiful but he was really scared of her brothers. He then stood up with Kim's help.

"I have to go…I'm sorry" he said as he sprinted to the door and left without a good bye. Since then he still haven't talked to her…or much less look her in the eye. When she sees him he walks in a different direction. That was a year ago. Kim hasn't dated since not that she didn't try she just found it was no use.

End flashback

"Well…uh Kimmy… you see you were gone for a while and I was worried so"

"Oh no" she groaned "Where" she said still standing near the doorway

"Connor's in the kitchen, Hunter went to get dinner and should be back any minute and Blake is well" he walks over to where Blake was asleep on the couch that faced the television. Kimberly followed she could not believe they did this again. She was finally getting annoyed at her overprotective brothers and just turned around and walk towards her room.

"Come on Kim…lighten up we are just…worried" he finished as she slammed the door automatically waking up Blake who was asleep on the couch and alarming Connor who was raiding Kim's refrigerator. She then picked up her home phone and called her friends putting them on 3way.

"So what's going on Kim" Aisha asked

"Yeah what's going on" Trini asked worried "you don't sound too good"

"They did it again" and that was all she needed to say…

"Wow they are majorly overprotective" Aisha said laughing

"Yeah wow that sucks…"Trini laughed also "where did u go to have them so worried"

"To the park" she answered dreamily remembering the handsome man she met earlier.

"Uh oh I know that sound you met a guy" Aisha exclaimed

"Oh… my …gosh…"Trini yelled

"Guys relax I'm not even sure if he is for real yet"

"Oh my gosh…"Aisha copied "Dish Girl" Kimberly began telling them about her run in with Tommy only thing is she didn't give a name. This made the girls skeptical because he sounded so unreal.

"Okay guys you have to promise not to tell my brothers got it" she said sternly

"Kimmie please we apologized before" Trini said sympathetically

"Yes we did not know they were going to go that far" Alisha said giggling

"Oh please you knew that you were playing with fire the moment you called Wes" She rolled her eyes and laughed as the girls finished their conversation. Kim hung up the phone and went to see what her brothers bought for dinner. After a long night of endless conversations and laughs they all called it a night…her brothers went home and she decided to go to bed…
