Shock

Chapter One: Lead A Horse To Water

By: Rom Linders

Pairing: Sky and Syd

Warnings: Done because I am currently bored and this story has been floating around in my head for awhile. And because I have a mild obsession with Chris Violette' s hotness. And yes this involves SEX. So even though I'm not ridiculously graphic I would like to actually have people a little older read this story.

"Hey Sky I have those dossiers you wanted and---" Sydney Drew walked into the Red Ranger's room and stopped dead.

Sky Tate was stark naked.

For a long moment the two of them stared at each other in shock, although despite her shock Sydney couldn't help but take him in. Clothed he was probably the most magnificent looking man she knew. Naked he blew any man she had ever encountered naked or not out of the water.

She had known that he was tall. Known that he had a rangy cowboy like build. What she hadn't been able to see was the whipcord strength and sinewy muscle that made up his build. She hadn't been able to see the tanned smoothness of his chest or the actual firmness of his thighs. And…her cheeks turned a delicate pink as her gaze compulsively focused between his legs. She quickly raised her gaze to his face and for the first time noticed droplets of water that stubbornly clung to his spikey hair and ran in tiny rivulets down his face and chest.

Sky's shock at Sydney's sudden entrance turned into amusement and more than a little male smugness when she began to check him out. A grin teased the corners of his mouth when he noticed her blush. But when her gaze met his, the smile died. The way she was looking at him…he felt his breathing go shallow and reached for the dark blue towel that lay on his bed.

When he had secured it around his waist he sat down on the bed and looked up at her.

"You can put the dossiers down on the desk Syd." He said, not trusting himself to take it from her. Being near the Pink Ranger did odd things to him to begin with, but the blatant sexual look in her eyes had him reeling. He wasn't even sure she knew she had given him that look. That's why he couldn't touch her. There was very little that would be able to stop him from having his wicked way with her if she did.

She did as he asked and turned towards the door and left without a backwards glance, leaving behind a very frustrated Sky.

"You what?!?" Z's pleasant alto voice rose at least two octaves over Sydney's latest gossip.

" I burst in on Sky just getting out of the shower."

"And he was naked."

"Yes."

"As in as a jaybird?"

"Yes."

"As in absolutely no clothes on what so ever?"

"YES Z! THAT'S WHAT I JUST SAID!"

Z grinned. "I want deets. Now."

Syd cocked an eyebrow at her in the same way Sky did and the Yellow Ranger fought a groan. They were mimicking each other's gestures. They belonged together.

"Won't Bridge be jealous?" The blond girl pointed out a little tersely.

"What he doesn't know…" Z trailed off. "Come on Syd I'm not jonesing after Sky. But a hot man is a hot man and damn it I just simply want to know for posterity sake." Sydney rolled her eyes at this but grinned at her friend. Sensing the advantage, Z asked: "So how hot is our Sky?"

Sydney's blush confirmed it.

"That hot huh?"

"Sizzling!"

Z burst out laughing. "You mean to tell me you had a naked Sky Tate in front of you and you didn't jump his bones?"

"Z!"

"What? Oh come on Syd you are so crazy about him it's ridiculous. And you finally have the perfect opportunity to tell—err—show him how you feel and you leave?" As much as Z loved Sydney, sometimes she wanted to throttle her. Now was one of those times.

"You know Sky! Can you seriously imagine his reaction if I did what you suggested?"

Z had a fairly good idea, but if Sydney couldn't see it, there was no use elaborating on it. After all, you could lead a horse to water, but you couldn't always make it drink.

TBC—Originally this was going to be a one shot but I don't know I could see it as a couple chapters long. My first Sky and Sydney fic. I hope you all enjoy the silliness and the fluffiness of it. Just something to post in the mean time while I'm working on my Dino Thunder Fic starring Connor and Cassidy!
