A/N: This could be a one-shot but I could expand it into more chapters. You guys tell me what you think.

Was it wrong of her to like him? She didn't think so. Who was to blame anyway? She was a growing girl and man was he cute. No, that was wrong, she shouldn't think like that.

Emily sighed and focused again on her training, but the more she tried the harder it became to focus. It didn't help that Mike was there, right in front of her.

Emily bit her lip gently. He wasn't distracting, but if only he knew how Emily felt he would probably try not to act like that.

Mike managed to kick Emily's feet from under her and she fell to the ground with a huff.

"Are you okay?" Mike asked, running over and looking worried.

Emily laughed at how cute he was being. She turned to the others who looked just as worried. "Never better." She said and stood up, cleaning her training clothes.

"Good. I think we can all use a break. We'll return to training in half an hour." Jayden ordered and went into the house, not wanting to waste any of his time.

Emily sighed and walked in behind him, trying to not be with Mike. Even thinking about him made her blush. How was she ever going to be his training partner?

"Hey, Em, are you okay?" Mia asked, walking next to her.

"Yes, why?" Emily looked at her confused. "Is something wrong?"

Mia chuckled at her friends innocence. "No, come on, let's go talk."

"Okay." Emily said, feeling confused by Mia's strange behavior. They both went to each others room and when Mia closed the door behind her, she gave Emily a sisterly grin.

"So how are you really feeling?" She asked the yellow Ranger.

Emily shrugged. "I'm good. I could have done better in training today, but as soon as we go back out there I"m sure I'll be more energized."

Mia rolled her eyes. "That's not what I meant. I meant to ask you about Mike and you..."

"What?" Emily blushed and stared at her. Did Mia know about her feelings? "Mike and me?"

"Yes." Mia frowned, not sure what to say after Emily's reaction. "You like him right?"

"Shh!" Emily looked around wildly, expecting something to pop out of nowhere. "Would you be quiet! What if he hears you?"

Mia smiled. "So you do like him?"

"Is it that obvious?" Emily asked, feeling pathetic.

Mia, sensing Emily's feelings shook her head, "No, but I'm a good guesser!" she lied. "How long have you liked him?"

"I don't even know if I do or not. I just think he's really cute." Emily said, though she really did like him. But sighed when she felt like she was lying. "I liked him since I first met him."

Mia ignored her change of answers and said, "Have you told him?"

"How can I tell him, Mia?" Emily asked, surprised that Mia would even ask such a thing.

"Well, you like him. It's not going to be easy liking someone not when you're both in Samurai Training, but I'm sure it can work out."

"You don't think it's bad that he;s older than me by three years?" Emily asked, shocked by Mia's support.

"I don't agree with it, on Mike's part. But if he one day passes the line of does something stupid, you can be sure that I'll have a good long talk with him." Mia warned, thinking of many ways she could beat him up probably.

Emily laughed, thinking it was funny, though she didn't wish Mike any harm, or for Mia to do such a thing. But that the pink Ranger cared, that meant a lot to her.

"Thanks." Emily said.

"You're like my little sister. I don't let boys mess with my little sister, even if they're Jayden or Kevin, and specially not Mike." Mia sighed. "He's not a bad kid, I'm hoping he has a good heart. That's the only reason why I don't disagree with your feelings." She said and smiled.

"It'll be okay, Mia. It's not like he likes a kid like me." Emily sighed. "I'm the worst samurai in the history of samurai's."

Mia laughed gently. "That's a long time and no offense, Emily, but I've read many Samurai history books on the past Rangers and the green Ranger was always the bad one."

"Because they like to joke around?" Emily asked, not wanting them to have a bad rap.

"Yes, that's exactly why." Mia nodded.

Emily laughed silently. "Mike will make those books one day."

"And so will you," Mia added gently. "As the sweetest, most calm yellow Ranger in history."

"Those aren't good attributes in battle." Emily argued, pouting.

"That may be true, but they're good attributes to the rest of us." Mia hugged her close and smiled at Emily. "To us, that makes them the best attributes in the world."

Emily laughed. "Thank you."

Mia smiled. "Come on, we have to go train. If we don't Jayden will come looking for us and then we'll have to stay two hours after the others." Mia told her, and before Mia could continue, Emily was already running outside.

Mia laughed and decided to join her before she got in trouble for being late.

Practice was the same as usual, but unlike earlier, Emily got to train with Kevin. Who, though better than Mike, was better than anything Emily could have hoped for. Of course that also meant being hit more and falling to the ground more often. It was embarrassing.

When it was finally over, Emily sighed in relief and sat in the benches. The others sat around her. "Are you okay?" Antonio asked worried.

Emily sighed. They always fussed over her, it was nice, but they over did it. "I'm fine." She said and felt like she had said that for the millionth time since ever.

"I'm sorry, Emily. I didn't meant to hurt you." Kevin apologized, his eyes completely worried. Emily shook her head, but he continued. "I shouldn't have been so rough with you."

"What does that mean?" Emily asked, and stared at him. Feeling like he had meant more than what he had said.

"I...uh...nothing. Hope you're feeling better. Do you want more water? I'll go get you some more." Kevin took her bottle from her and left before she could say something.

Emily looked at the others for answers. They didn't say anything. Emily sighed and stood up, moaning as she stretched her hurt muscles.

"I'm going to take a shower." She announced to the others and went inside. But hid behind the door and listened to them talking.

"Is she okay?" Jayden asked Mia.

Emily listened. They were probably talking about her. Why wouldn't she be okay?

"Yes, she's just a bit distracted. Probably tired." Mia lied.

Emily smiled, she was really a good friend. She wouldn't want Mike to know how she felt. Just yet anyway.

"She's getting better." Antonio's voice piped up and the others agreed.

"Of course she's doing great. She learned everything from me." Mike boasted.

Emily bit her lip, trying not to laugh.

"Sure, Mike. You're the master Samurai here." Antonio teased. "My moves are better then yours but probably the only reason why she's so good at listening to you is because she likes you."

"Antonio!" Mia and Jayden said, before Antonio screamed in pain.

"Ow, hey what was that for?"

"She likes me?" Mike asked confused.

"We don't know that for sure, Mike. Antonio was just saying that as a guess." Jayden said.

"Yeah, we can't be sure unless Emily tells you herself." Mia said, and sounded like she was forcing a smile.

"Unless she tells us." Antonio added.

Emily heard something being smacked and once again, Antonio screamed.

"Why on earth would she tell us?" Mia asked, sounding angry. "You wouldn't keep it a secret."

"Why would that be kept a secret?" Jayden asked, confused.

Mia sighed and Emily shook her head. Boys didn't understand anything.

"Whatever, just forget about it-"

"Here you go." Kevin appeared in front of Emily and she had to close her eyes so she wouldn't feel scared. Her heart was beating wildly and she glared at Kevin. "Are you okay? Did I scare you?"

Emily shook her head. "No, I was just thinking a lot."

Kevin looked outside and shrugged. "Okay."

Mentor Ji walked over to them.

"Dinner's almost ready. Who wants to help set the table?"

"Not me." Mike said.

"Come help me, Mike." Mentor Ji ordered and turned to go to the kitchen.

"That was a trick question! It doesn't count." Mike passed Emily and glanced over at her, looked at her strangely before smiling and leaving for the kitchen.

Emily felt herself blush and felt mortified. Mike probably thought she had a crush on him, which she did, but she didn't want him to know that. Antonio was going to pay.

Just as she thought about how to get revenge on Antonio, he walked inside.

"Hey, Emily."

Emily looked at him. "You...you're..." She walked away unable to find words to what to say.

Antonio watched her go, confused.

Mia walked next to him, having seen the whole thing and 'tsk-ed' at him. "I'm going to go talk to her." She said, and didn't tell him to be careful. It was better not to scare Antonio.

"What did I do?" Antonio asked no one in particular.

"Knowing you." Kevin said, "You probably did a lot of things."

Antonio went to the kitchen with Jayden and Kevin, feeling kind of bad for some unexplainable reason, specially after what had happened.
