Switzerland 1996, we go to a boarding school. We move closer into the window and there stands 17year old Jason packing his bag. He rolls up some of his clothes Military style. Jason sighs and looks around the room. He's eyes catch a picture on his desk. He stops packing and walks over to the picture when a slight smirk. It's a picture of him and his old Angel Grove crew. This picture was taken when Tommy was the green Ranger and was in the middle of losing his power. It was the day that Kim and Tommy defeated the Gutario monster. Everyone looked so happy and at peace. Jason eyes land on Trini who is leaning against him with her arms crossed and with a smile.
Zach: knock-knock(Jason turns to his open door and there stands 17year Zach with a smile on his face)hey man!
Jason: Hey Zach come in(Zach walks in the room)What brings you by?
Zach: coming to see if you need any help packing(picks up a basket ball from off of Jason's desk before sitting down on the bed and throwing it in the air)
Jason: You decided to come after everything is almost packed?
Zach: what can I say? I have the best timing!(looks at him and chuckles. Jason smirks and puts the picture down on the desk)for someone leaving for a month. You are packing your whole life away.
Jason: I might be gone for a month but when I get back, I'm only going to be here for another two months before we leave. I mine as well send everything back to America
Zach:(smiles)hmm
Jason: What(walks over to him a little)
Zach: Sounds like Trini is getting into your head(Jason takes the ball from Zach)
Jason: What do you mean?
Zach: you didn't start thinking about packing most of your room until she advised it.
Jason: well(mumbles)she gives good advice
Zach:(sings)sure!
Jason: So other than coming to be a pain in my butt(throws him the ball back and heads back to his suit case)what can I do for you?
Zach: Two things….I'm taking you out tonight before you go back to Angel Grove and two(frowns)I got a call from Adam
Jason: ok! About what?(Zach sighs)what is it man?
Zach: I thought I'd never see the day(Jason nudges for him to continue)
Jason: Stop being so dramatic! What is it?
Zach: Believe me Dramatic is needed!(sighs) Kimberly broke up with Tommy(Jason stands there emotionless)Hello did you hear me?
Jason: you must be joking?
Zach: Yeah! I'm not….Kim wrote it in a letter. Adam was reading it and BOOM. Kim found another guy and is happy with him. She dropped Tommy like a bad habit
Jason:(shocked)No way!
Zach:(sighs)way! I didn't even know Kimberly was feeling anybody else. She was all about Tommy like normal two weeks ago.
Jason: something must be wrong. (Shakes his head) That can't be right. I mean why would Kimberly break up with Tommy in a letter? I have to call her
Zach: Do you think she told Trini?
Jason: No I think Trini would've said something! She would've tried to talk her out of it(Zach nods in agreement)(sighs)I'm surprised Tommy hasn't called and told me
Zach: He is probably waiting for you to get in town tomorrow.
Jason: I hope he doesn't think that I had anything to do with it(rubs his neck)I can't believe this man. I thought they would last until death do them part
Zach:(jokingly)What are you a girl?
Jason: Shut up(zips up his bag)I mean I had hope is all.
Zach: Well hopefully it doesn't last to long. Maybe Kim had a bad week or something. I'm sure they will get back together in no time
Jason: I don't know!(shrugs)breaking up in a dear John letter is pretty intense.(mumbles)something must be really wrong with Kimberly(Zach stomach growls)(smirks)hungry?
Zach: Am I?(stands up with the ball in his hand)all this Love talk has my stomach turning. I missed lunch. You ready to eat?
Jason: Yeah(walks towards his desk and picks up his keys)lets go! You treating?(they walk out of the room and Jason closes and locks his door)
Zach: Yeah I guess!
Jason: Awe! You are going to miss me(punches him in the arm)
Zach: Yeah(bounces the ball)(teases)but not as much as Trini
Jason: what(looks at him)do you mean?
Zach: I think you know what I mean(a couple of girls walk past and giggle at them)(smiles)good afternoon ladies
Girls: Good Afternoon Zach(they walk past giggling)
Zach: I still got it(Jason hits him in the neck)ow!
Jason: you better cut it out! Trini and Angie are friends….Angie has given Trini full permission to kick your butt if you even dance for another girl
Zach:(laughs)Yeah-Yeah(Jason laughs and then soon pauses when he sees something)hey Jason(Jason is still frozen in his spot)Hello! Earth to Jason(still Jason seems to be mesmerized)(mumbles)what now?(walks back over to Jason)what are you(stops and smiles)oh(we look in the room and see Trini standing in the middle of a lounge. The lounge is full of books and coffee tables. There are a couple of computers in the room as well. Trini has a book in hand and coffee in her other hand(Trini's once conservative wardrobe is a little more grown and sexy. Trini is wearing a tight jean skirt and yellow tube top. She is wearing letterman jacket that covers her arms, still giving her a little modesty. Trini has her hair in pig tails and is wearing flip flops). Trini walks over to a love seat and coffee table and puts her coffee down before sitting and opening the book)(mumbles)are you going to stand here drooling or…
Jason:(mumbles)I'm not drooling(he watches as Trini takes her feet out of the shoes, puts her feet in the chair and sits on them)
Zach: Right(mumbles)since when does Trini wear your jacket?(Jason quickly looks at him)
Jason:(softly) We got caught in the rain last week. So I gave it to her to keep her dry. You were there
Zach: mm(softly)and I thought she would've given it back to you by now(puts one hand on his hip)
Jason:(softly)what does it matter? She's my friend. She can have it
Zach:(softly)it doesn't matter(smirks)it's just a Tommy and Kim move is all
Jason:(frowns)what does that even mean?
Zach:(chuckles)if you don't know(shrugs)then nothing(Jason rolls his eyes and turns back to Trini who moves some stray hair behind her ear) we should invite her to dinner
Jason:(mumbles)no(looks at him)I don't want to disturb her. She just started reading
Zach: It's just a book! It's not like she can't put it down and pick it back up later. This is your last night in town. She will kill us if we don't invite her(Jason shrugs)
Jason: No I don't think….
Zach:(calls)hey Tree(Jason quickly turns to Trini. Everyone in the room turns to him. Trini slowly looks up at them and shakes her head slowly)wh(before he can finish I very tall broady woman walks over. She has orange hair and frown on her face. Zach soon frowns. Jason and Zach step back a little)whoa!(the lady glares at him and crosses her arms. Trini sits up a little with a frown. Jason nudges him)ow
Librarian:(accent)Shh! This is a library not a Zoo(puts her finger to her mouth. They watch as Trini smiles and mocks her. Trini puts her finger to her mouth and crosses her eyes. They go to snicker but hold off as much as they can. The librarian turns to Trini and she quickly looks in the book with a serious face. The librarian turns to back to them)
Zach:(clears his voice)I'm sorry(holds up his hands. Trini stands up, puts on her shoes and looks at them with a smile)Mrs. Lazlo it won't happen again (Trini grabs her drink)
Mrs. Lazlo: You say that every time Zachary! One more time and you are band from the library
Zach: Yes ma'am(Mrs. Lazlo walks off and Trini walks past her and over to her friends)(lowly)I can not believe she is married. She has such a stick up her….
Trini:(lowly)don't finish that statement(holds on to the book and dumps the drink in the trash)she just takes her job seriously
Zach: too serious(laughs lowly)on the last day I'm going to make so much noise that she tries to rip my head off.(Trini shakes her head)and It won't even matter, because I am out of here.
Jason: I have to agree! Ms. Appleby wasn't even this strict(rubs the back of his neck)
Trini:(smiles)so what are you guys up too?
Zach: I'm taking Jason out to dinner for his last night in town for a month(throws the ball in the air)do you want to join us?
Trini: Sure why not?!(looks down at her clothes)but I'm not dressed for the occasion(looks at them)
Jason: you look fine(Trini smirks)
Trini: Yeah! But I think I need to put on some pants! It's going to be 45 degrees tonight
Zach: Well make sure those pants are dancing pants(turns a little and moon walks out)because that's what I feel like doing(Jason and Trini look at each other. Trini giggles and follows him. Jason smirks and follows her out)so how long is it going to take you to get dressed?
Trini: Five minutes or less! I promise!(laughs)I'm not Kimberly(looks between them while laughing and when they don't laugh she stops)what's up guys?
Jason: um(clears his throat)did you know that Kimberly broke up with Tommy?
Trini: Excuse me(covers her mouth)what do you mean?
Zach: I'm taking that as a no
Trini:(uncovers her mouth)(to Jason)you are joking?
Zach: He is not(she looks at him)Adam called me about an hour ago and told me. She broke up with him in a Dear John letter. Adam said he started reading and then Tommy finished it up. He read it to the whole team. Adam said he was devastated
Jason:(shocked) you didn't tell me it was in front of the whole team.
Trini: I have to call Kimberly! Two weeks ago she was talking about how she couldn't wait to go home and see Tommy. She was just on her way to see him last week(makes a confused face)Something about a surprise for him. I wonder what happened between them?
Zach: you think that "Surprise" was a break up?
Trini: No(shakes her head)that couldn't of(stops)could it?
Zach: I mean what if she chickened out and sent a letter instead?
Jason: No I strongly doubt it! Kimberly wouldn't chicken out. I can tell you that this is not very tasteful , which is not Kimberly's style at all. I think she wrote the letter because something is really wrong and she couldn't face him.
Trini: You're right!
Zach: I guess(shrugs)your right! I wonder what the surprise was then and why she didn't give it to him? She didn't call you at all Trini?
Trini: No! She probably knew I would've tried to talk her out of it
Jason: that's what I was thinking (crosses his arms)
Trini: or at least made her call him or break up with him face to face.(shivers) its just weird saying it (sighs)I guess I'll call her back when we come home from dinner. It'll about Noonish in America(looks at Jason)Tommy hasn't called you about it?
Jason: Nope! He knows I'm coming home tomorrow. He'll probably let me know then(looks at his watch)he actually is picking me up.
Trini: I can't believe you get to go to Angel Grove for a month(sighs)so unfair
Jason:(smirks)you'll be there soon enough! You only have three months left
Trini: Yeah! But I'm going to miss you(Jason blushes a little and he raises an eyebrow)you know because(looks at Zach who nods)we're the Three Musketeers and all
Jason:(disappointed)oh(Trini bites her lip)yeah(looks at her and smiles)I don't blame you for not wanting to be left alone with Zach-man(they look at Zach and he laughs)
Zach: Ha-ha! (Jason and Trini look at each other and chuckle. They soon look in each others eyes)so I'm going to go(they look at him)
Trini: Where?
Zach: I'm paying this time since mom sent me my allowance for the week. I left my wallet in the room. So I'll meet you back here….
Trini: You guys should meet me at my room. Since I'm right near the steps
Jason: ok!
Zach: actually meet me at Trini's room Jas! Makes no sense for you to come all the way back and then have to turn all the way around. I'll meet you in a few minutes(Trini and Jason look at each other and Trini shrugs with a smile)
Jason: if you say so
Zach: Oh! I definitely do(walks off quickly)
Jason: Well shall we(Trini nods and they walk off)Can you believe they broke up?
Trini: I never thought that this would happen(they walk down the steps)I mean like I said Kimberly was so stoked about seeing him again and then last week she was even MORE stoked about seeing him sooner than she thought.
Jason: She didn't sound different?
Trini: She sounded excited but a little nervous. In no way shape or form did I think a break up was going to happen. I mean I thought she would still be in Angel Grove and that you would get to see her.
Jason: Well obviously that's a Dud!(sighs)I can't imagine how Tommy is feeling (they stop in front of a door)I know he must be heart broken
Trini: I know Kimberly is too(sighs)she loves him so much. I hope she can tell me what happened. I hate the thought of them both hurting
Jason: Yeah(slowly)me too(Trini looks down)hey come here(takes her in his arms and she happily hugs him back. But instead of wrapping her arm around his upper body. She has her arms around his shoulders and Jason holds the small of her back)I'm pretty sure that this is a misunderstanding….and they will be back together in no time
Trini:(laughs)I hope your right! I hope some monster wrote the letter(pulls away slightly)and they find it and kick it's butt.
Jason: I hope so too!(they laugh)I guess we have to hear from the one who wrote it
Trini: yeah(looks in his eyes)they are my favorite couple! Even more than my parents are.
Jason: Don't worry Tree!(takes one hand and touches her chin)It'll work itself out(Trini smiles and Jason smiles back at her)what?
Trini: you always know how to make me feel better is all(Jason slowly puts his hand back on the small of her back)you are an awesome friend Jason
Jason: and you're an amazing friend as well Trini(Trini blushes a little)Tree look(pauses)
Trini: Yes Jason(bats her eyes a little and Jason gives her a very intense look making her blush)
Voice: Trini(Jason looks over Trini's shoulder and soon frowns. Trini gives him a confused look and turns just her head. There stands Zach and a Asian man)
Trini:(softly)Larry?(smiles a little)hey!
Larry:(softly)hey! Jason!
Jason:(simply)Larry!
Larry: I see your moving in on my girl
Jason/Trini: Your girl?(Trini doesn't even look at Jason before she pats his shoulder and pulls away from him slightly. Jason lets out a little shiver because of the sudden change of body heat)
Zach: that's what it looked like to me Larry(Trini gives him a look)never mind(whistles and walk over to Jason who puts his hand in his pocket)
Trini: What are doing here?(walks over to him)
Larry: I came to get my grandmother's necklace. You know since we are broken up now(Trini sighs and he gives her a smile)I understand Trini! We just weren't meant for each other(Trini nods and takes out the necklace from Jason's pocket)We're Teenagers we break up and move on(looks at Jason who crosses his arms)that's the way the cookie crumbles(takes the necklace and looks at her)
Trini: Yes it is! I'm sure you are going to find someone who will be prefect for you Larry
Larry: Yeah me too! I have a date with Pauline tonight! Hopefully it will work out
Trini:(smiles)hopefully!(He bends down and kisses her cheek and Jason grinds his teeth a little)
Larry:(whispers)your always so sweet!(whispers even lower)Hopefully you and Jason will make it(steps back and Trini blushes and nods "no")
Trini: It's not….
Larry: It's ok Trini(plays with her pig tails a little before letting go and backing up)You don't have to explain or deny it….I understand.
Trini: Honestly Larry!
Larry: I'll see you around Trini(walks away and Trini sighs a long sigh. The guys look at each other. Trini slowly turns to them and forces a smile on her face as they stare at her)
Zach: What did he say to you?(Trini walks over to them)do you need me to kick his butt?
Trini: No Zach it was(sighs)just a final goodbye. Even though we broke up three weeks ago…we never did get to say it(Jason uncrosses his arms and takes her hand. Zach now smiles and steps back a little. Trini looks at him and her smile gets bigger)I'm ok honestly….he just wasn't the one for me(they stare in each other's eyes. Jason smirks a little)
Zach: ummm!(they look at him)I would love to stand here and look at you two looking at each other all day(Trini and Jason reluctantly let go of each other)but seeing as how curfew is up in five hours…I would like to eat before we don't get that opportunity
Trini: yeah(puts her hands on her hips)I'm coming! Just give me five minutes(laughs)your worse than Rocky(they laugh. A girl comes up the steps and walks over)Hey Julie
Julie: Hey Tree! You have a call from Kimberly(everyone looks in between each other)
Trini: thank you! I'll take it in my room(Julie nods and walks away)I have to…
Jason: We know
Trini: give me 7minutes and I promise no more than that
Zach: Take your time! I feel like Kim really needs you(Trini nods and opens her bedroom door)
Jason: come get us if you need us. We'll be right outside(Trini nods, goes in her room and closes the door behind her. Jason looks at Zach who gives him a toothy grin)not one word or else(Zach shrugs a little and looks at his watch)ok(laughs)what?(Zach laughs)
Ok here is chapter 1! I hope it was worth the wait! Chapter two is coming really sponges. Please review~RT
