-An hour later-
The shiny red mustang pulled up to the Ford's house. Connor put the car in park and pulled the emergency break.
Dr. O sighed. "You're not helping anything buy stalling, your woman is in there hurting still, its time for you to be a man and make it better."
He looked at his mentor in annoyance but said nothing as he got out of the car and adjusted his shirt.
Everybody knows that I was such a fool to ever let go of you
Baby I was wrong
Yeah I know I said we'd be better off alone
It was time that we moved on
I know I broke your heart, I didn't mean to break your heart
But baby here I am
Banging on your front door
My pride spilled on the floor
My hands and knees are bruised and I'm crawling back to you
Begging for a second chance
Are you gonna let me in?
I was running from the truth and now I'm crawling back to you
Connor beat his fist on the door for what seemed like the longest time before the door opened. A puffy eyed Kira saw him and then adverted her eyes.
Connor's heart tore up at the look of hurt on her face. Kira, I'm sorry. I didn't…I thought you were still in love with…trent …I know you two were an item once…
Slap!! Connor groaned as her hand made contact with his cheek and then was shoved against the door.
"CONNOR MCKNIGHT! I WOULD HAVE HOPED THAT YOU HAD KNOWN ME BETTER THEN THAT!!!! WHERE IN THE HELL DID YOU GET AN IDEA LIKE THAT! IF YOU RECALL TRENT TOOK THE COWARD'S WAY OUT AND I PAID FOR IT! ME!!!"
"THEN, HE TRIED TO MAKE A MOVE ON ME!!! I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS GONNA DO THAT! I THOUGHT HE'D ACCEPTED THAT WE WEREN'T A COUPLE ANYMORE! I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO REACT!!!"
"IF YOU HAVE BOTHERED TO STAY LONG ENOUGH FOR MY ENCORE YOU'D HAVE SEEN ME BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIM!!!
By now, she had run out of steam and then started to cry again. Connor, when he…threw away our relationship, the pain was indescribable. My heart is fragile. Don't make me pay for your cowardice like I did his. I can't afford it." Kira's voice had steadily gotten softer. The last words were said in the softest voice he'd ever heard…and they were accompanied by fresh tears.
I know you're in there and you can make me wait
But I'm not gonna wait
It's the least that I can do, just to tell you face to face
I was lying to myself, now I'm dying in this hell
Girl I know you're mad, I can't blame you for being mad
But baby here I am
Banging on your front door
My pride spilled on the floor
My hands and knees are bruised and now I'm crawling back to you
Begging for a second chance
Are you gonna let me in?
I was running from the truth and now I'm crawling back to you
Connor's voice broke when he replied in a soft voice to match hers.
"I know now what happened after I left. But I didn't know then. You weren't the only one to suffer. I've been hurting too. I've barely eaten and spent all my time crying, I wanted to die when I thought you'd betrayed me. It's the worst feeling I've ever felt."
At this he fell down to his knees in front of her.
"Please, Kira… I have no pride left, and I'm shamelessly in love with you. It would kill me if l lost you…and it'd be my fault…please Rockstar, tell me what I have to do to earn your trust again."
If you could see these tears I'm crying
Touch these hands that can't stop shaking
Hear my heart that's barely beating
You will see a different man
But baby here I am
Banging on your front door
My pride spilled on the floor
My hands and knees are bruised and I'm crawling back to you (come on)
Begging for a second chance
Are you gonna let me in? (let me in)
I was running from the truth, now I'm crawling back to you
Kira was shocked. She never thought she'd see the day that Connor would abandon his ego. But here he was, the red ranger, former leader of the power rangers on his knees before her, for all to see, begging her forgiveness.
But there he was.
Banging on your front door (darling)
My pride spilled on the floor
I was running from the truth, now I'm crawling back to you, yeah
Now I'm crawling back to you
Crawling back to you
Crawling back to you
Crawling back to you
Kira sank to her knees then too. Connor didn't even look up at her.
"Connor, look at me." when he obeyed she continued. "What Trent and I had was nothing compared to what we have. And he's got nothing on you. I miss us. The way we were before. When there was no jealously, and no Trent, just you and me, carelessly, completely and irrevocably in love with each other."
"I see what Dr. O has with his wife, and its what I want for us. Mrs. O told me that she had to go through hell to get it. Please don't make me go through this again. I've paid the price in full, and I want to reclaim our happiness."
Connor was speechless. But that seemed the norm that morning. So all he could do, was what he did. He tenderly caressed her cheek and then softly and gently kissed her. That was when the flood gates opened. For several minutes, all they did was make out on the door step of Kira's house.
Kim walked up to Tommy and wrapped her arms around him and kissed him. Tommy wrapped his arms around his wife and returned the kiss. When they finally came up for breath, he whispered in her ear.
"All better Beautiful?"
Kim smiled up at him.
"Yes, thank you handsome. Oh, and I have one more bit of news to tell you."
And what's that?
We're gonna need to stop by Lowe's and pick up some paint for the nursery."
"N…nursery? Then that means?"
Kim nodded and the next moment was caught up in Tommy's arms as he twirled her around in a circle.
But the two lovers on the porch never noticed as they were still….busy.
As Tommy put her down they glanced at the two teenagers.
"You think we should interrupt before they end up producing a playmate for our little one?" asked Kimberly.
Tommy laughed as he opened the door for Kimberly. Then he got in on his side and honked the horn.
When Connor and Kira broke apart, he grinned. "If you two plan to make it to first period on time, you had better beat us to the high school, you have less then thirty minutes! Then he revved the engine and pulled out of the driveway and on to school.
Kira and Connor looked at each other before Kira ran into get her backpack.
After all, they had a test in English and a certain ass to kick.
