Author(s) Note: This story was co-written by me and my friend Claire, and we have affectionally nicknamed it the 'Oh baby Oh baby' story because the idea came from this poster another friend put up in our study at schoolthat hadeight boxes with a different side of love in it and we would read them out and couldn't help but add 'oh baby oh baby' at the end. Once this is finished - you'll see what we mean! It just fits!

Summery: Conner and Kira have had their up's and downs, but then things change between them. A story to show the different sides of a relationship!

Disclaimer: Neither me nor Claire own Power Rangers in any shape or form (well - I have a Conner figurine!) so... yeah, not us gov!

Hope you like the first chapter - have tried not to make it too serious but as with every relationship it has its funny times, its sad times, its cruel times and its... well, lovey times! So enjoy - and tell us what you think by leaving a little review once you've finished!


I Loathe You

"How dare you," Kira yelled at Conner as they arrived back to the Dino Lab after kicking the butt of another of Mesogog's monsters.

"Hey, I was just saving your life," Conner retaliated as the others made themselves scarce. Conner and Kira's arguments were infamous and usually went on for some time. It was best just to let them blow over.

"Well my life didn't need saving," Kira shot back, "If you hadn't got in my way we could have taken that monster earlier. Stupid jock."

"Got in your way?" Conner's voice shot to a whole new pitch, "If I hadn't 'got in your way' we'd be scraping pieces of you off the asphalt by now."

"Don't be so dense, I was doing it on purpose. Didn't you listen to Dr. O at the start, or did our whole plan just pass you by?"

Conner gaped at her, "Plan?"

"Yes plan. I was right, you really weren't listening. Of course not, Conner the soccer star is too amazing to listen to what a group of losers has to say, right?"

"Hey," Conner's voice had a bitter edge to it, "I'm supposed to be the leader."

"Well you're doing a crap job of it so far."

"Only 'cos I'm not getting the chance. I'm sick of being told what to do by…" he froze mid sentence.

"Told what to do by who? Dr. O?" Conner's sullen silence was the only answer she needed. "By the gods Conner, I knew you were immature – I never realised quite how childish you actually are."

"Childish? Who are you to call me childish?"

"You're jealous Conner," Kira stated, with a smirk on her face at the jock's discomfort.

"Jealous? Of who – Dr. O? Don't be stupid." He didn't sound very convincing.

"Yes you are jealous of Dr. O. Jealous because he's such a great ranger and you can never hope to match him."

"Well if he's so amazing why don't you date him so you can tell him that?" Conner snapped.

Kira froze, "How dare you?" she said, her voice icy. "How can you even suggest it? I said Dr. O was an amazing ranger because he it, not because I have some girly crush on him. I'm with Trent – you know that damn well so how dare you say such a thing?"

Conner shrugged, "I'm just saying what it looks like."

"Shall I tell you what I think it looks like?"

"No but you're going to anyway because you always get involved where you're not wanted."

That stung, but Kira brushed it off, "The way I see it, you're just a jealous wanna-be soccer star who knows he has as much chance of going professional as he has of going out with me; who thinks he's 'all that' but really is just another jock who's flunking school and has no real future. How does that sound?"

"Seems like you got it figured," Conner said, "But why should I care about the words of a wanna-be rock star who has 'as much chance of going professional as she has of going out with me. You're really just a shallow self-obsessed nobody who I hate."

"You hate me?" Kira's voice was like fingers on a chalkboard, "Well I loathe you."

"That's fine with me," Conner said, turning around and running out of Dino Lab at super-speed.

"It's fine with me too," Kira yelled at his fast-disappearing back. Once he had gone she opened her mouth and gave a scream of frustration. Why was he such a stubborn jerk?
