I Can Love You Better
byJeremy Ray Logsdon

Tommy had been dating Katherine for several months. Although he had yet to commit to saying those three magical words Katherine wanted to hear, they did have a tight relationship. However, both of them began to wonder how much longer that would last when Kimberly returned from Florida with a bronze medal around her neck.

"Hello, Kimberly," Katherine said somewhat coldly.

"Kat," Kimberly returned, scowling noticeably.

"Hi, Kim," Tommy stammered. The three were sitting in the Youth Center. After Tommy had let it slip that he had feelings for both girls, they had given him a very distinct ultimatum. 'Choose one of us or die.'

"What on Earth did a stud like Tommy ever see in a short chick like Kimberly?" Katherine wondered to herself. "Tommy's six foot, while I'm five nine. We look cute together. He looks like a fool with five one Kimberly.

"I'm not even going to start on her valley girl attitude. Sure, she's been trying to hide it, but I'll never forget that home video Billy had of Kimberly in 9th grade. She was a complete and total bubble-headed bimbo. 'Like fer sure!'"

She's got you wrapped up in her satin and lace
Tied around her little finger
She's got you thinkin' you can never escape
Don't you know your heart's in danger?
There's a devil in that angel face
If you could only see the love that you're a-wastin'

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm askin' is for one little chance
Cause baby I can love you, baby I can love you better

"She's so damn perfect I could kill her!" Kimberly seethed. "I should have picked a midget with acne to take my place on the team. Argh! What was I thinking?! She's just so smug and complacent I could just... spit.

"The wus can't even handle herself in a fight! 'Tommy!' For crying out loud, she's as bad as Billy was in the beginning. But at least Billy didn't get on my very last nerve.

"So help me, Tommy Oliver, if you pick her over me, I am going to make you regret it. But what am I worried about? I'm Kimberly Hart. I have a bronze metal from the Pan Global Games. I didn't even knock myself out when I tried to compete, unlike some bleached bimbos I can think of. And if I ever learn that she puts out, I'm gonna rip her Aussie head off."

I'm gonna break this spell she's got on you
You're gonna wake up to find
You're my desire my intentions are true
Hey babe, I know it's time
You're gonna see what you mean to me
So open up your eyes cause seein' is believin'

I can love you better than that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm askin' is for one little chance
Cause baby I can love you, baby I can love you better

"Well, Tommy?" Katherine asked as sweetly as she could manage. She wiped the scowl off of her face and smiled at Kimberly.

"Yes, Tommy, who do you pick?" Kimberly asked, returning the hidden scowl.

"Actually, I've been doing a lot of thinking about this," Tommy said, "and I've decided to pick..."

"Yes?" both girls asked in unison.

"Heather," Tommy answered. "Wallow in your own self-indulgence all you like. I have better things to do with my life."

"Ready to go, Tommy?" Heather asked as she walked up to their table.

"You dirty-," Katherine muttered under her breath.

"See ya, girls," Tommy spat as he stood up and walked off with Heather.

"You know, I honestly didn't see this coming," Kimberly said. "Can we be friends again?"

"Oh, absolutely," Katherine agreed. "I can't believe we let a man come between us."

"I know!" Kimberly giggled. "Besides, I have an alternate. I asked him to meet me here, just in case."

"Me too!" Katherine cried. Both girls then looked up just as Billy and Jason entered the room. Jason stopped to talk with Emily at the bar while Billy walked on to the two Pink Rangers.

"So ladies, you both asked me to meet you here?" Billy asked, glancing at them each in turn.

Kimberly folded her arms across her chest and stared at Katherine. "This town ain't big enough for the both of us, Kat."

"Wanna take this outside, slut?" Katherine asked as she stood up.

"Don't call me a slut, bitch," Kimberly announced as she followed her out of the Youth Center.

"Yeah, I'll show you who the bitch is, slut!" Katherine countered.

I can love you better than that
I can love you better
All I'm askin' is for one little chance
Cause baby, I can love you, baby, I can love you better...
