"Mornin'," Kim whispered as Tommy opened his eyes and looked over at the woman lying next to him. Last night they had done a lot to repair their broken relationship, but they still had much more that needed to be taken care of. TK was suffering for all the things that they had messed up on in the past, they had to do what they could to make things right with him.

"Mornin', what are we going to do today?" Tommy asked as she shrugged. She knew what she wanted to do, but she was unsure if he would agree to that as well. "I can see you've got an idea."

"I think we need to try to figure all of this out, we can't keep pulling him around like this, you know that as well as I do," Kim said as Tommy sat up and he barely nodded. He hadn't wanted to talk about that part of their life so early in the morning, but it didn't look like he was going to have a choice in the matter.

"Okay, so what are we going to do?" Tommy asked as Kim looked over at him.

"I'm going to stop running, it's what I've been doing since I had him and it's not fair to anyone, but him especially. He hasn't known you because of it and it's just time that all of that end. It's time that things become the way they should have been the entire time," Kim said as he nodded and then forced himself to sit up. "Whether or not we get married or stay separated, he deserves to have you in his life, even if there are times when I'd rather that not be the case."

"Why's that?" Tommy asked as Kim let out a sigh.

"There's just some things that are going to happen as he gets older that we're not going to be the best people to deal with it. How will we explain to him that you're supposed to give relationships your best shot, not just a shot in the dark? He's not going to believe that, especially after all we've done to shoot that theory to hell and back," Kim said as he smiled.

"Don't worry, I know that the two of us have made our mistakes, but if we can make this work out this time, we might be able to save ourselves some of that in the future," Tommy said as she gave him a concerned look. "He's like me, we'll learn to make things work."

"I wish that we didn't have to learn those things," Kim said as he barely nodded. "I'm going to try harder Tommy."

"I know, we've got to, both of us," Tommy said as Kim nodded and she then turned to lie on her back. "You okay?"

"I've been better, TK is going to be so mad at the two of us," Kim murmured as Tommy rested his head against her chest and looked up at her.

"You're not alone anymore," Tommy whispered as her smile widened.

"I'm glad of that, I'm not sure I'd make it through the teenage years by myself without killing him," Kim joked as he smiled.

"My parents thought the same thing about me a couple times," Tommy said as she laughed. "I was worse than you'd think, especially when I had the stage of trying to find my real family. That was going to happen with you in a few years with you."

"I know…I wasn't looking forward to it, since I was getting the third degree already, he's barely ten," Kim said as he let out a sigh. "At least he knows you now, although that might not keep him from bothering us for much longer."

"I think having ten years to catch up on might be something that makes him mad Kim. I'd be mad too if I was in his position," Tommy said as Kim nodded. "I love you, everything will be fine."

"You're so confident and I'm the one who's been the parent for the last ten years. I have no clue what to do now that he knows and that we're trying to actually make this work," Kim whispered as he gave her a quick kiss and then hopped out of bed.

"Want pancakes?" Tommy asked as he stretched and then threw on a pair of boxers.

"Sounds great, you sure you won't burn down the house?" Kim joked as he stuck out his tongue and then left the room. She slowly sat up and then walked over to the bathroom and climbed into the tub. She was going to take the most of not having to answer the relentless questions that both her son and his father had for the moment. The last couple of weeks had completely drained her.

"So, how were things last night with you and Kim?" Trini asked as she walked in and saw Tommy standing in front of the stove in only his boxers. "I'm guessing that things went good."

"Really good, how was he last night?" Tommy asked as he turned around to see TK smirking up at him. "I'm taking that look as meaning fine."

"He was fine Tommy, don't worry, we were actually more worried about you and Kimberly last night," Trini said as Kim walked down the stairs in a pair of Tommy's shorts and a t-shirt.

"I guess we shouldn't have been worried," Jason murmured walking up behind Trini and giving her a hug. "No more running away, from the either of you?"

"At least not for now," Kim said as Tommy barely nodded. "Just one day at a time for now."

"Glad that you've finally decided that, we're going to be on our way, you've got a lot of explaining to do," Jason said as Trini nodded as TK sat down at the table and Kim walked over and sat down next to him.

"So…" Kim murmured.

"That's all you can say?" TK asked as Kim smiled.

"I'm not really sure what to say besides that right now," Kim said as he looked over at her and she looked down at the floor.

"Mom, you could tell me why you left Dad. You could tell me why we stayed in Florida all these years when you knew who my father was. You could tell me the truth," TK said as Kim closed her eyes and then placed her head in her hands.

"Tommy, take it easy on your mom, she's had a rough couple days," Tommy said as he sat down next to the boy. "She has a lot to explain to the both of us."

"Tommy, Kenny, the both of you have the right to ask me any question you can think of, I just can't guarantee that I will be able to answer them all," Kim said as she looked back up at them and Tommy felt his heart break. She was hurting so much, but she was going to do this for them.

"Why did you leave Dad?" Kenny asked as Kim forced a smile.

"Because I was scared, we weren't trying to have kids Kenny and with everything that was going on back then, he didn't need any more pressure. I know that he could have handled it now, but I can't change it now," Kim said as the boy barely nodded and Tommy watched her closely. He was ready to save her if he had to.

"I was a mistake?" Kenny asked as Kim cringed.

"No, we just weren't trying to have a child," Kim said as Kenny just shook his head.

"You didn't want me?" Kenny yelled as Kim felt the tears fall down her cheeks and she made no moves to stop it.

"I did once I found out I was pregnant," Kim muttered as her shoulders started shaking.

"Why then?" Kenny asked as Tommy looked at the two of them.

"Because you were all that I had left of your father," Kim said as Kim stood up and then walked out of the room. She needed to get herself back together before she faced the two of them again.
