*The girls walked back onstage and Angie made the announcement.*
Angie: You boys have treated us great since we've been here and we're so happy to entertain you. *They all cheered loudly and whistled at the girls.*
Angie: Thank you *she said responding to the applause*. Now I know you boys wouldn't want anything bad to happen to us would ya?
*The soldiers all shouted 'no' and showered more cheers upon them. By this time their old "boyfriends" had spotted them and were standing by the bar in the back glaring at them on the stage.*
Angie: Well see those three men there by the bar *she said as nearly every soldier in the place turned around to look at them*, they're not here to enjoy the show like you are.
Soldier: You want us to take care of them sweetheart? *one of the soldiers yelled out*
Angie: Well we'd appreciate it we didn't have to see them ever again.
*With that said the soldiers swarmed on Chris, John and Eric. Tom and Will who were quite confused and concerned by all this ran up onstage and grabbed Angie and Theresa and headed for the back door. Theresa grabbed Kim's arm and they all ran out and jumped in a cab.*
Tom: What's going on Angie? Who are those guys? *he said after giving the cabbie directions to his house*
Angie: Oh it's a long story. *she said as she leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder.*
*Once at Tom's house they sat down in the livingroom and Angie began to explain.*
Angie: Those guys are in the mob and we dated them for a while.
Will: You dated mobsters! *he said surprised as he took Theresa's hand and squeezed it*
Theresa: We didn't know they were in the mob. Once they got arrested we realized what was going on. We weren't gonna see them anymore but then they got out on bail and still wanted to go out with us. It wasn't serious to us but I guess they thought it was.
Kim: Yeah and we knew we had to get outta there so we changed our name and came here. I guess they found us though.
Angie: Well we're just gonna have to move again.
Theresa: We can't keep running forever.
Will: I've got an idea. *he said after a few minutes* You girls just stay here and don't open the door for anybody until we get back.
*Before the girls could say anything Will and Tom were out the door. They came back a couple hours later with big smiles on their faces.*
Will: I told my commanding officer what was going on and here's the plan. Unfortunately those guys got away from the soldiers so until they are caught again and sent to prison, y'all are gonna hide out at Tom's ranch.
Tom: And we've been assigned as your guards. You won't be able to go back to your apartment though and we're going to leave as soon as the other man who is going to help us gets here.
*Within a few minutes there is a knock at the door and Tom and Will go to answer it. They talk for a mintue before letting the other soldier in. Once he's inside Kim gasps to see Mr. Brown.*

kim:mr. brown.....what are you--
mr. brown: i was recruited, and quite frankly i wanted to do all i could anyway*he says looking in her eyes, smiling*
mr. brown: oh *then looks up and whipes the grin off his face*
kim tries to stop smiling but cant.
kim:i thought there was already another wom--
mr. brown: *before she could finish her sentence* my wife......
kim's face got red with embarracement
mr. brown:died a while ago
all the sudden kim felt rediculous and felt bad
mr. brown:*walking over ot her to lift her face up* no need to look sad
kim looks up with her eyes closed, afraid to open them
mr. brown:why dont you open your eyes
kim:i dont want to
without hesitation, he kisses her right there with his hand still holding her chin in the air, and she opens her eyes looking as if this were her first kiss, and it really meant something to her.

Kim gazes into his eyes and smiles, leaning in for another when Rob pulls back. "What's wrong?" Kim asks, giving him an inquiring look. "N-nothing." He replies sharply. "You look like you've seen a ghost." Those words sting like salt to an open wound -- he winces. "Oh, do I?" he chuckles nervously, not wanting his flashback of Susan to show obvious on his face. "Mr. Brown, are you all right?" Kim asks as she notices the color in his face draining pale. Rob blinks a couple times though still not snapping from his daze; he walks into his appointed room and closes the door behind himself.
Kim looks toward the door, wanting to ask him what's wrong but knowing this isn't the time or place to act like a sympathetic 'girlfriend'. 'I don't even know his name for cryin' out loud!' She thinks to herself. Kim walks into the kitchen, where everyone else has gathered, and sits down at the table for a late lunch.
'What's wrong with you, Rob; why are you acting like such an idiot?! She's gone and she isn't coming back; don't expect to see her in every woman you meet.' Rob takes a deep sigh and stares at the ceiling while he lays on the bed. 'That sound in her voice was soft and sweet like Susan's; and when she closed her eyes and whispered, all I could think of was... Rob smiles and closes his eyes, as if envisioning her standing before him; though when he goes to see Susan's face, all he can see is Kim's.

*Later that evening Tom was in his room packing for their trip to his ranch the next morning when someone knocked on his door.*
Tom: Come in!
Angie: I just wanted to say goodnight and see if you needed any help. *she walked in and sat down on the edge of the bed*
Tom: I'm almost done. *he said as he took his t-shirts out of the drawer and laid them in his suitcase.* I could've sworn I had another shirt. *he mumbled as he closed the case*
Tom: What's wrong? *he asked as he noticed Angie's face turning red*
Angie: Well it's kind of embarassing.
Tom: That's alright you can tell me. *he sat down next to her and put his arm around her shoulder*
Angie: You did have another shirt. I took it.
Tom: You took it? *he said surprised*
Angie: Yeah the night of the storm when I was here. I wanted something of yours so I took your shirt. I put some of your aftershave on it too and I've been sleeping in it.
Tom: *laughing* That's a little strange, but very sweet.
Angie: You're not mad?
Tom: No. It's getting late and we've got a long trip tomorrow so you better go get some sleep.
*He kissed her goodnight and early the next morning when it was still dark they all boarded the train to go hide out at Tom's ranch.*

will: no......it looks pretty there
theresa lets it go and will kisses her
theresa:im scared will
will:im not going to have that, youre strongerthan that, and you know it*he grabs her and pulls her close to his body as they both face the window and watch the scenrey pass by. all the sudden she isnt scared anymore feeling safe in his clutching arms*

Kim sits in her seat, drifting off into dreamland as the rhythmic beat of the train lulls her to sleep. Rob sits in the seat next to her, trying to catch a few winks himself until he wakes to a slight bump of the train. He yawns once but cuts short once he notices Kim laying her head on his shoulder -- asleep. He slowly begins to shift his position toward the isle so he's able to wiggle free but the warmth of her body close to his reminds him of how lonely he's been since Susan died -- and the feel of her body next to his just feels so right. He looks around to make sure Will and Tom aren't looking, because he's been so used to that guilt following him around and torturing him: You're cheating on Susan, Rob! How dare you! But as he lays his head on top of hers, the feeling of guilt, and the memory of Susan begins to fade. Kim takes a deep inhale and wraps her arm around his -- snuggling closer to him. He gently caresses her soft hand, surprised that she likes him as well. Though their nap ends sooner than Rob had hoped when Kim blinks her eyes a couple times and pulls back quickly. "Oh, I'm sorry." Kim removes her arm from around his; her face turning red with embarrassment. Rob chuckles nervously and stares out ahead. "We must have dozed off, huh?" Are the only words he can form in his mouth; he kicks himself for being so naive and not recognizing the situation earlier. "I don't even know your name, Mr. Brown -- and already I've kissed you, held your hand and rested my head upon your shoulder as we slept in the same box cart; you must think I'm a flooze." Kim says, feeling like the lowliest human being on the face of the earth. He looks to her and smiles faintly, gazing into her eyes. "My name is Rob; and I don't think you're a flooze at all." Kim smiles back, blushing. "Nice to meet you, Rob; I'm Kim." The two shake hands and laugh.
(Theresa, I would have used 'hussy' but I knew you were saving that for your story ;D)

Too sweet!!!
*Tom and Angie sat next to each other on the train holding hands and talking.*
Angie: Do you think we'll really be safe at your ranch?
Tom: *caressing her cheek* Nothing bad will happen to you as long as I'm around, I promise.
*Angie leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek and then rested her head against his shoulder. A little while later the train pulled into the station where they found an older, kindly looking woman waiting for them.*
Woman: Tom, over here!! *she shouted as she waved her hankerchief in the air*.
Angie: Who's that?
Tom: That's Ma Hawkins. She owns the ranch next to mine and I asked her to pick us up.
Angie: Nobody's supposed to know we're here. *she said nervously as they all walked towards her*
Tom: Don't worry, she's the only one that knows and she won't tell a soul.
Ma Hawkins: *hugging Tom and kissing his cheek which she was barely able to reach even on tip toes* It's good to see you again! These must be your charges. *she said looking at the girls*
Tom: Yeah, remember you can't say anything about who they are or why they're here.
Ma Hawkins: I promised I wouldn't didn't I? You'll be safe here girls and I also got you some things you might need since you had to leave in such a hurry. It's all waiting at the ranch for you.
*Surprised by the wonderful generousity of this stranger the girls thanked her and they all piled into her car and drove to their new home. *
Ma Hawkins: Well I better be getting back to my house. If you girls need anything just let me know.
*They all shouted 'Thanks!' as she drove away. Tom unlocked the door and they all walked inside to see a lovelier house than they expected. Plush furniture and lovely rugs as well as beautiful oil paintings adorned the room.*
Will: I've never been on a ranch before but this isn't exactly what I expected.
Rob: Me either.
Tom: My mom decorated it and since she died I just haven't had the heart to change it.
Angie: I think it's just beautiful.
Theresa: Me too.
Kim: Me three *she said as they all giggled*.
Tom: There are only two bedrooms so we'll take one and you girls will have to share the other one.
Kim: That's fine, I'm just happy to be far away from Toronto.
Theresa: Hey, Ma Hawkins said she had some stuff for us, let's go check it out!!

kim:yeah let's go angie!*as she then turns to the guys and smiles as if to motion to go with them....just in case of course* will follows theresa with his hand on the small of her back, as does tom and rob to angie and kim. right before the girls step into their room, their guys grab them, holding them back and cover their eyes. angie:why are your hands over my eyes tom? kim:yeah what's going on?*she smiles softly* rob:nothing to worry about girls, it is a surprise*he says excitedly* the girls take their steps into their one room they have to share will:are you ready? the three girls answer with an impatient yes as the guys uncover their eyes, they just stand there gawking at their room. theresa's cheeks turn bright red and cant think of anything to say. it isnt much, but i cnat find any vintage enough looking bedrooms. angie:what did that ma hawkins do? kim:it is absolutely perfect rob! angie:yeah, its peachy keen! theresa turns around to will wondering...just wondering how this was all happening to them. will: don't look now, but you're blushing theresa: how could we ever thank you boys for doing everything for us. i almost feel unworthy. will:you.....*wrapping his arms around her waist, and looking deep into her eyes like he never wants to leave them*.....could never be unworthy*he pulls her closer in for a most amorous kiss. as they ambrace eachother, tom does the same with angie, pulling her in quickly without a moment to spare, and kim just hrows her amrs around rob and he cant help but reach for her lips. kim:we must thank ma hawkins some how! angie: yes! but how? theresa.............i know, lets cook dinner for her! kim:yeah thats a mighty good idea! angie: all three of us, and you boys cant help us either. as dinner arrives slowly, all six of them head over to ma hawkins house to surprise her. kim:we're cooking dinner tonight ma hawkins ma hawkins: but....but... angie: no buts! kim: we are thanking you for all you are doing for us! ma hawkins: this is your doing tom! you told them to cook dinner didnt you? tom: i did nothing of the sort, they planned it on their own angie: we certainly did, now you just go in their with the boys and relax theresa nods her head and smiles, too shy to say anything to her. the boys stand in a diagonal line next to each otehr sticking their arms out, allowing for ma hawkins to go first into the parlor room, but before she reaches the room, she passes tom and he unties her apron, making it fall to the floor. it makes the three guys chuckle quietly. ma hawkins: thomas thorn!*they immediately stop laughing and clear their throats as if they didnt do anything* the girls just watch as they giggle silently kim:come on! we better get to work girls, if we want to get dinner done on time theresa: ill get the vegetables cleaned and cut angie: then ill get the pots out and the water boiling.....if i can figure out how to light the stove theresa:oh dear! angie: hey i can do it! kim:then ill get the meat ready as the girls get cookin' in the spacious kitchen, they start singing "pistol packin' mama"*( ) in harmony; jamming while trying to cook.

An hour or so later, the girls announce dinner time by ringing a sweet little bell found on the kitchen table. Ma Hawkins walks in and gives the girls an inquiring look; she shakes her head and laughs. "Naw, ya' gotta call fer' em' like this: TIME TO GET IT, BOYS!!" Ma Hawkins smiles kindly and nods her head as if to let them try it. Kim, Angie, and Theresa look to each other, wide-eyed, then shrug. "COME AND GET IT!!" They all shout. Immediately the boys walk into the kitchen one by one and grab a plate, dishing up. The girls look to each other once more and laugh at how well the call worked. "I hope we won't have to call for you boys like this every night; we'll end up with a sore throat before bed every night!" Theresa giggles. "Well, dish up everyone! No sense in standin' around like a few bumps on a log; I'm hungry!" Ma dishes up a plate and sits down next to the boys.
After dinner, everyone walks into the living room and sits back to relax after such a filling meal. "I don't think I've ever had such an incredible meal." Tom sighs, looking to Angie and smiling. "Neither have I." Will adds, "I don't think I'll be able to eat for a week!" Ma gasps sarcastically and laughs, "well, maybe I should hire these girls for dinner duty every night." "No!" The girls shout in unison. "We mean..." Kim goes to explain, "it's so tiring; I don't think we could keep up with it every night." Ma pats the girls' knees and chuckles, "Well, I think I'll turn in early tonight. Make sure you clean up the dishes before ya'll go to bed!" Everyone agrees and wishes Ma a goodnight. "Well, we better get to those dishes before it gets too late." Angie says, looking to Tom. Everyone else tries to make up an excuse to get out of it, but Angie just chuckles. "Don't worry, I don't mind doing dishes, and neither does Tom; so you guys go have fun -- we'll catch up with ya' later." Will chases Theresa up the stairs, giggling and laughing. Kim decides she'll just go outside and take a walk under the starry sky in the wide-open country while Angie and Tom begin washing the dishes by hand.
As Kim takes a deep inhale of the fresh air outside and steps off the front porch, Rob closes the door behind himself and walks up beside Kim. "Oh, hello." Kim says, somewhat startled by his presence. "Hello." Rob replies softly. "Do you mind if I take a walk with you? I need to walk off about 10 pounds from that meal." he chuckles. Kim laughs and shakes her head, "I don't mind. Ever since we got involved with those mobsters, I've felt kinda leery about being alone. I'd stick with my sisters, but now they're too occupied with...." Kim stops and looks down, embarrassed at where she's taking this conversation, knowing he couldn't feel the same about her because of his deep love for Susan. She looks up and smiles faintly. "Thank you for the company -- I appreciate it." Kim begins to walk toward the moonlight, which leads to a prairie field. Rob sticks close by her side, even holds her hand so she'll know he won't leave her side. She looks up into his eyes and smiles; the dramatic sparkle in his eyes captivates her, though she tries not to stare -- they continue walking. "You have the prettiest smile I've ever seen." Rob says sweetly. Kim blushes and smiles weakly, "Even prettier than Susan's?" The moment she uttered those words she started to kick herself for being so stupid. She stops walking and turns to Rob. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that." Rob's smile quickly fades as he realizes the only thing that's ever stood in his way of a happy future, is the depressing past which he won't let go of. Susan seems to be the only thing standing in the way of a relationship with Kim; and he's reminded her time and again of his deep love for Susan that can never be replaced -- almost as if he's trained her to expect as little as possible from him. But little does Kim know that the memory of Susan is quickly being replaced by a new found love for her -- he just doesn't know how to tell her.

Angie: Be careful Tom, you're getting water everywhere. *She said as Tom dried the dishes* Tom: Oh, sorry. *He bent down and wiped the water off the floor* Angie: You better get a clean towel for the rest of the dishes. Tom: I guess I'm not much help huh? *he said as he looked around for another towel.* Angie: Aw, you're doing alright I guess. *she said smiling as she went back to washing the dirty dishes* Tom: You wanna take a walk after we get finished? Angie: Sure! *Once finished with their chore, Tom and Angie went outside and walked down a little path until they reached the fenceline.* Tom: You sure look pretty out in the moonlight. Angie: Thanks *she said looking up into his eyes* Ya know, I thought you looked nice in your uniform, but I like you in these clothes even better. This seems more like the real you. [img src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t163/coopsgirl_30/thewesterner15.jpg" src=" Tom: *blushing over the compliment* Yeah, I guess this is more like the real me. I love it out here. *He said as he looked out across the dark land*. When we first moved out here I missed the city but it didn't take very long and I got used to it. Once I learned to ride a horse I would stay out for hours just riding around and after a while it started to feel more like home. Angie: It is really nice here. It's so quiet and peaceful. *Angie moved closer to him and reached up on her tiptoes and put her arms around his neck. Then she leaned in and kissed him under the twinkling stars. When she pulled away from him, he pulled her back and kissed her again, taking her breath away. * Tom: Sorry, I didn't mean to be so rough. Angie: You weren't *she said giggling*. Tom: We better go back inside *he said noticing her shivering a little in the cool night air.*

It really isn't fair that he is so incredible. Have you ever noticed that he seems to have so much amazing-ness for just ONE man? It should be a crime for one man to possess such *sigh* perfectness.
