  Hi there. You can’t install themes you bought elsewhere on WordPress.com: http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/

  The only themes you can use here are the ones listed in the WordPress.com theme gallery, here: https://wordpress.com/themes/

  You should find out if you can get a refund on that theme, as there’s absolutely no way you’ll be able to use it here. Those themes can only be used with self-hosted WordPress.ORG websites. WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and different: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
