A/N: Some of this might be familiar, it's base is from the Original, Trini-'centric Who Heals the Healers, just made some changes and I feel better about it. Hope you like it to.

After "Switching Places"…

Trini waited until Jason and Zack left to go spar at the Youth Center before she turned to her two closest friends. As she looked at them, she thought of the promise they had made, to always forgive each other. Finally, she spoke, "I know, you both need to adjust what's happened. Do you want to talk about this?"

Kimberly paused, "Maybe later, Trini. Right now, I have to go; I promised mom I'd help her prepare for the book club meeting tomorrow." She stopped and hugged Billy, bouncing in and out of Billy's reach like a basketball. Trini had noted that Kim had adopted that move for when she was still beginning to accept what had happened that day. She' probably crack Billy's ribs in the morning out of relief if nothing else. "I'm sorry I ruined your computer tutoring session. I didn't mean to do it."

Billy blinked, still not used to Kim's new hugs, "I forgive you." He paused for a moment, "I apologize, it was not my intention that my attempt to assist your endeavors in your home economics class would be classified such an unmitigated disaster."

"Forgiven," Kimberly said, "I'm sure home ec has seen worse messes." She started to turn towards the door, and then turned back. "I gotta go, but if you ever figure out how I blew up that computer, would you let me know?"

"Affirmative," Billy replied. "It is a curiosity for me as well."

"Thanks," she gave them a cheerful wave and bounced out of the garage lab, humming a tune that Trini thought she recognized.

Sitting down on the battered couch, Trini watched Billy shut down the machine and unhook the power source, "Thank you for staying," Billy said finally, as he turned to his computer.

The way he stood, and his inability to look at Trini not that they were alone set off alarm bells in Trini's mind. "What's wrong?" She asked, carefully. She didn't get up; because Billy would never open up to her if she disrespected his unspoken request to let him hide.

Billy stiffened, "Trini, I don't know what you want me to say."

Trini slipped off her shoes, "Then just talk to your computer. After all, it won't judge you."

Billy nodded slightly, "I never thought that the first experience with a woman's body I've ever experienced would be wearing the form of one. I always figured it would take a lot of time before I would know certain things. I suspect, some boys would have used the chance to feel the body, but I couldn't. Kim's one of my closest friends, practically my sister, and I couldn't do that to her. Not to mention how totally wrong it felt to do anything at all. I couldn't even visit the lady's room. Well, not to mention the whole, boy in a girls' bathroom never being a wanted title for me."

Trini grinned; of all the rangers, she was closest to Billy, and the only one who got a peek at what could develop into a dry humor one day. Billy would be good at it, she thought, resting her head on the back of the couch. He had an instinct for tone that he tended to hide behind his geeky scientist mask. He was so afraid to let the world see the true William Cranston that Trini was afraid that he would never be all that he could be. "Billy," she said, "let's just leave it right there for now. It's easier to talk it out in stages, and it gives me a point of reference for Kim. I do want to congratulate you. Two years ago, you would never have dreamed of showing off something like this, much less letting someone try it out."

Billy turned to look at Trini with a smile, as Trini felt an inner thrill at having solved the puzzle that was Billy, the blue ranger dropped onto the couch beside her, "I couldn't have done it without you." He hugged her tightly, "You are an amazing woman, Trini, knowing you is beyond anything I could ever invent."

"Thank you," Trini replied. For a long moment, the Yellow and Blue Rangers existed, and then pulled back. "I need to go make sure Kimberly hasn't killed herself yet. If you need me, you know my number."

"Be safe, Trini," Billy replied, watching her leave.
