Tommy Oliver was growing impatient as he waited for his team to finish getting to his house.
Kira, Trent, and Ethan had the respect to show up on time but no Connor was 45 minutes late.
Normally Tommy would have just blown it off as Connor being well Connor but due to where they are going Tommy was just overall impatient and antsy.
"Hey Dr.O do you want to listen to this new singer I found?" Kira asked.
"No." Tommy replied shortly.
"Come on Dr. O it would really calm you down." Kira said trying and failing to calm her antsy teacher down.
An awkward silence fell over the group after Tommy just glared at her. When Connor finally showed up the group was on their way.
The team piled into Tommy's jeep. Ethan, Trent, and Connor piled into the back while Kira claimed shot gun.
Half way through their trip Kira started figetting with the radio. Finally she settled onto a station. Tommy took in a sharp intake of breathe when he heard the announcer say: and here is Ann Hart with one of her older songs Take it all.
Didn't I give it all?
Tried my best
Gave you everything I had
Everything and no less
Didn't I do it right
Did I let you down
Maybe you got too used to
By having me around
Still how can you walk away
From all my tears.
It's gonna be an empty road
Without me right here
[Chorus]
But go on and take it
Take it all with you
Don't look back
At this crumbling fool
Just take it all
With my love
Take it all
With my love
Maybe I should leave
To have you see
Nothing is better than this
And this is everything we need
So is it over?
Is this really you've given up so easily?
I thought you loved me more than this
[Chorus]
I would change if I must
Slow it down and bring it home
I will adjust.
Oh if only, if only you knew
Everything I do
Is for you
Once Tommy heard the song his suspicions were confirmed this singer was in fact his ex-girlfriend Kimberly Ann Hart. What could this song mean. Tommy looked up from his thoughts to see his team staring at him.
"Dr. O you ok?" Ethan asked.
"I'm fine." Tommy replied. With that no one asked any more questions. Tommy was to busy with his own musings on Kim to follow any of the conversation going on in the car, he was so busy he almost missed his exit to his ranger reunion in Nevada at Jason's new house.
TOMMY'S POV
I pull up to Jason's house and park my car. I look and see that there are already a few cars there meaning most of my old team should be there. I look in the rear view mirror and see my new team bouncing up and down in excitement.
I climb out of my jeep and slam the door shut. With that the house's front door opens and out rushes to streaks right towards me. I catch them both in my arms. "Trini, Aisha its good to see you again." I say laughing, they still were the same two girls I knew in high school.
Than outcomes the entire gang minus Kimberly.
"Tommy, man, its good to see you again!"
"Its good to see you to bro." I say giving him a hug than continued with the pleasantries with the rest of the gang before introducing my new team who looked like they had just met celebrities.
We all head into the house and sit around the living room making small chat before the question comes up. "Hey Dr. O where is the original pink ranger?" Ethan asked.
'Yea she was a total babe!" connor added. Kira just smacked him.
"Oh, um Kimberly doesn't know if she can make it." Jason said.
"Speaking of Kimberly did you know she was a singer?" I asked to anyone in particular.
"Yea I bought her cd." Jason said.
"Lets listen to it." I said. Damn why did I say that with out thinking.
"Bro I don't know if that's the best idea." Jason said. I look around the rest of the room and they all weren't making eye contact.
"Ok, whats going on? Whats on the cd that you don't want me hearing? I want to listen for myself!" I say irritated.
Jason sighed "Fine" he simply said resigned.
He got up and put the cd in and this was the first song:
This is how the story went
I met someone by accident
It blew me away
It blew me away
It was in the darkest of my days
When you took my sorrow and you took my pain
And buried them away, you buried them away
I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known
You disappear one day
So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
Drop me off at the train station
Put a kiss on top of my head
Watch me wave
You watched me wave
Then you went on home to your skyscrapers
Neon lights and waiting papers
That you call home
You call it home
I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known
You disappear one day
So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
I woke up feeling heavy hearted
I'm going back to where I started
The morning rain, the morning rain
Although I wish that you were here
That same old road that brought me here
Is calling me home, It's calling me home
I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun
But like everything I've ever known
You disappear one day
So I spend my whole life hiding my heart away
And I can spend my whole life hiding my heart away
Jason paused the cd and all eyes were on me. "What the hell?" I yelled.
"That's our words exactly, we read the note at the end and it said this cd was basically the story of her life in Angel Grove." Trini said.
"What is she talking about?" I asked angrily. Damn her she broke up with me, she has no right to have a pity party.
"Slow down man it gets worse, this album itself is pretty depressing." Jason said.
He unpaused the cd:
I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
And the games you play, you would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cry
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
When laying with you
I could stay there, close my eyes
Feel you here, forever
You and me together, nothing is better
'Cause there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Where I felt somethin' die, 'cause I knew that
That was the last time, the last time
Sometimes I wake up by the door
Now that you've gone, must be waiting for you
Even now when it's already over
I can't help myself from looking for you
I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Where I felt somethin' die
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, oh
Oh, no
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
"Ok Now I am really confused what is she talking about?" I asked deeply troubled.
"We don't know, for the past couple of years we have tried to figure it out. She acts like we cut her form our lives when in fact it was the other way around. I mean come on she broke up with you!" Rocky said.
"I even tried calling her and asking her about the cd and I asked her what was up with all the songs and she just laughed."
I just shook my head and Jason unpaused the cd.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while he got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven
His best days will be some of my worst
he finally met a woman that's gonna put him first
While I'm wide awake he's no trouble sleeping
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no
What am I suppose to do
When the best part of me was always you and
What am I suppose to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Cause he's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no
What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you
And what am I suppose to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven)
You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains, oh
'Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while he got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't break
No it don't break, no it don't breakeven, no
What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're okay
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven)
Oh, it don't breakeven, no
Oh, it don't breakeven, no
Oh, it don't breakeven, no
I sat there stumped while the next song started.
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming
But You Know you had it coming
Know you had it coming (coming)
Everyone's running from something
But we don't know when it's coming
So we keep running and running gotta
Everyone's running from something
But we don't know when it's coming
So we keep running and running gotta
Now I'm looking up the bible tryna find a loophole,
Yeah I'm living for revival dying for a new soul,
Now there's no light to guide me on my
Way home,
Now there's no time to shine my Rusty Halo...
(It's been a long time coming)
It's been a long time,
(It's been a long time coming)
Yeah it's been a long time,

Been so long, but I gotta shine, shine, shine,
My rusty halo...
Gotta shine my rusty halo...
Gotta shine my rusty halo
Now I'm running for the light in the tunnel but it's just the train,
(But it's just the train)
Yeah I'm looking for the right type of pleasure but all I find is pain,
(Oh)
Now there's no light to guide me on my way home,
Now there's no time to shine my rusty halo...
(It's been a long time coming)
It's been a long time,
(It's been a long time coming)
Yeah it's been a long time,
(It's been a long time coming)
Been so long, but I gotta shine, shine, shine

Everyone's running from something
But we don't know when it's coming
So we keep running and running gotta
Everyone's running from something
But we don't know when it's coming
So we keep running and running gotta.
I just shake my head confused what is going through Kimberly's head as she writes these?
So little to say but so much time,
Despite my empty mouth the words are in my mind.
Please wear the face, the one where you smile,
Because you lighten up my heart when I start to cry.
Forgive me first love, but I'm tired.
I need to get away to feel again.
Try to understand why, don't get so close to change my mind.
Please wipe that look out of your eyes, it's bribing me to doubt myself;
Simply, it's tiring.
This love has dried up and stayed behind,
And if I stay I'll be alive,
Then choke on words I'd always hide.
Excuse me first love, but we're through.
I need to taste the kiss from someone knew.
Forgive me first love, but I'm too tired.
I'm bored to say the least and I, I lack desire.
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love
"Ok this sounds more like the story of how our relationship ended." I say out loud.
"I am not going to play any more of her cd. But I think you should hear her new song she just came out with."
You've been on my mind, I grow fonder every day
Lose myself in time just thinking of your face
God only knows why it's taken me so long to let my doubts go
You're the only one that I want
I don't know why I'm scared, I've been here before
Every feeling, every word, I've imagined it all
You'll never know if you never try
To forget your past and simply be mine
I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
Promise I'm worthy to hold in your arms
So come on and give me a chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
If I've been on your mind, you hang on every word I say
Lose yourself in time at the mention of my name
Will I ever know how it feels to hold you close
And have you tell me whichever road I choose you'll go
I don't know why I'm scared 'cause I've been here before
Every feeling, every word, I've imagined it all
You'll never know if you never try
To forget your past and simply be mine
I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
Promise I'm worthy to hold in your arms
So come on and give me a chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me, I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me, I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me, I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me I've learned it
So I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
I promise I'm worthy to hold in your arms
So come on and give me a chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
Come on and give me a chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
"Does this mean she has moved on" I ask with out thinking.
"I don't know man all I know is that no one has been able to get a hold of her, last I heard was she was living in Vegas of all places." Zach says.
"Vegas? Man this chick just keeps getting better and better." Connor said before Kira smacked him.
"Well on that cheerful note lets hit the hay we have a busy week." Jason said.
'Jason Lee Scott what do you have planned?" Trini asked-scratch that more like accused.
"You shall see." Jason said laughing before heading upstairs. We all went to our appointed rooms which gave me a minute to think. What the hell is Kim talking about in her songs? And has she truly moved on?
Ok so here is the first chapter. I know its kind of confusing but everything will be explained soon. The next chapter is of Kim's POV.
Songs used in order: Take it all by Adele, Hide my heart by Adele, Set fire to the rain by Adele, Breakeven by The Script (few adjustments to go with the story) , Rusty Halo by the Script, First Love by Adele, One and Only by Adele.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the songs used in this story nor do I own the Power Rangers.
A:N/ So if you didn't notice before I absolutely love Adele, I was one of her fans way before Rolling in the Deep came out. She is amazing and so is the Script so go check them out. K bye!
