Ok...here we go! How's everyone enjoying the Season? I hope you guys haven't worn yourselves out by now!

This chapter is full of sap and has some suggestive moments....I hope you like this!

We loved writing it!

Kim watched Mrs. Clause leave. She couldn't believe that she had met the matron of Christmas…or that she had been entrusted with such a special mission.

Which reminded her… her kids were busy stalling her over protective husband. She looked at her friends. "As soon as I can distract Tommy…we can meet at the spa…and discuss the game plan."

Ashley, Karone, and Cassie looked at each other. "Well be there."

Kim nodded and turned to Kat and Aisha. "The real challenge will be getting Tommy and Billy to let us go."

Kat sighed. "I know…but we can do this."

"Kimberly!"

Kim turned around. "Time to face the music."

She turned on her heel with the other girls following her and walked back to the condo.

When Aunt Kimberly asked them to stall uncle Tommy, Tyler wasn't sure what to do. So he did the most logical thing.

He grabbed Terra's hand in his and walked to the voice. Lucky for him…Terra went along with it.

They found him about a minute later searching everywhere. Tyler gulped. Terra squeezed his hand in support.

Tommy looked at him and then at their clasped hands.

"Hey Ty? Can I talk to you."

Ty gulped. "Okay...sure."

Tommy knelt on one knee before them. "I wanted to apologize."

Tyler was confused. "Um...for what?"

"I grilled you a little too hard last night."

"Oh...um....it's okay. You're her dad. I expected it."

"Yeah but I shouldn't have… you'd never hurt her."

"It's okay…being with her is worth getting yelled at." Tyler said as he grinned.

Tommy didn't miss it. "You did it didn't you. You kissed her."

He watched as the young love birds look at each other.

Tommy couldn't help but chuckle when they blushed.

"Um…yes we did...under the mistletoe." Terra stammered, blushing brighter.

The white Ninjetti laughed and gave Tyler a serious look.

"Just promise me one thing."

Tyler looked at him warily. "Yes?"

"She's a princess. Take care of her."

"Daaaaad!" Terra whined.

Tommy chuckled. "Teeerra!" he whined back.

Tyler chuckled. "I will. I promise."

Tommy grinned. "Alright. Go on."

Tyler grinned and ran up to the condo with the twins following him.

The white Ninjetti grinned as he saw Kim walking to him with Kat and Aisha in tow. But he only had eyes for the beautiful brunette that was walking towards him…then worry followed as he noticed that she was shivering.

He ran to his wife and held her close to him. "What the heck are you doing out here beautiful? You could get sick!"

Kim rolled her eyes. "Tommy…I'm fine...I wore my boots and my coat and my gloves....I'm perfectly fine."

Tommy was in full protective mode. "Let's get you inside then we'll talk."

Kim gave him a sarcastic look. "Would you prefer to carry me handsome?"

Tommy said nothing as he picked her up causing Kim to hold him tightly.

"I'm pregnant Tommy...not made of glass."

Tommy shrugged. "I can't help it. I worry. I can't bear the thought of anything happening to you two."

Kim's heart felt warmer as she heard him refer to her and their growing baby.

In a softer voice she answered. "I know handsome...and its sweet of you...but I did take Aisha and Kat with me."

Tommy carried her up the stairs and to their room. As he laid her on the bed and started taking off her boots he looked at her.

"What were you doing out here?"

Kim bit her lip not knowing how to answer him so she said nothing as she shrugged out of her jacket.

"Kim?"

Tommy was looking at her with concern mixed with frustration. "Tell me."

Kim bit her lip. "I thought a nice bit of exercise would be good for me....keep me in shape... fresh mountain air.…"

"I wish you would have told me…I would have gone with you."

Kim saw her opening. "I know handsome…but you were so peaceful looking. And after the love we made last night…I thought you would want to sleep in."

Tommy frowned at her. "Your not going to tell me are you?"

Kim looked at him feigning innocence. "Tell you what?"

"Why you were out there."

Kim turned on her stomach as he helped her under the blanket.

"Tommy. I know you can't help but worry about me. And its sweet of you....but there are things that I need to handle on my own...with the rest of the girls....I promise not to take on any monsters without telling you first."

He hugged her. "Just promise me something."

"Yes?"

"Promise me that you'll be careful… please?"

Kim gave him a soft smile. "Tommy...our daughter is my first concern...I wouldn't do anything that would endanger her...and I will be careful....I'm Ninjetti…just like you and our kids...I promise not to do anything stupid."

Tommy placed a soft kiss on her lips. "I love you so much."

Kim kissed him back. "I love you too."

"I almost lost you once. I don't want to do that again."

Kim was surprised that Tommy was bringing this up again.

"That time a madman was after me. This is just a little Christmas business." She cupped his face and kissed it. "I'll have the girls with me the entire time."

Her husband sighed. "Kim, I'm sorry I'm so over protective."

"It's okay Tommy. It's sweet of you...and if you feel any better....once I reach 7 months I will put myself totally under your care."

Tommy smiled. "Deal."

Kim kissed him again. "As long as you're happy."

Tommy kissed her back. "I want you to be happy too."

"I am...I have you...the kids...all my friends...and this little one." She said rubbing her stomach lovingly. "I couldn't be happier."

Tommy placed his hand over hers. "Good."

"I'll be even happier when we hold this baby and I can get my sexy body back. But until then...I'll cope."

Tommy smiled at her. "You're sexy now"

Kim looked at him. "In your eyes I am...but I won't be completely happy till I get my body back. She smiled at him "And we can do some working out together."

Tommy grinned at her slyly. "In more ways than one."

Kim rolled her eyes at him. "Only you Tommy....only you can take something I say and make it suggestive."

Tommy shrugged. "I'm a guy."

"Yes you are....and I love you for it." She said as she caressed his chest through his tank top. "Completely sexy....soft...everything I've ever desired. She said softly as she kissed him again.

"And you're everything I desire." he said as he kissed her back.

Aisha was in mildly good spirits as she walked down the stairs to the basement…until she noticed something was different.

She looked at the cot where she saw that Rocky was asleep…then she looked around the room and zeroed in on it.

Someone had moved her cot. Not even a few hours earlier it had been on the other side of Zack's cot…safely away from Rocky…and now it was right across from Rocky's again.

She knew that Zack had left early with Justin and his girlfriend to get some breakfast. And now as she approached her sleeping friend that he was not really sleeping at all.

She knew that once woken, Rocky could never go back to sleep. She rolled her eyes. And Rocky snored…not loud enough to wake the dead…but just enough to be noticeable. And right now…he was looking really peaceful…and was being quiet.

He was definitely not asleep.

Rocky De Santos…the resident prankster and ultra goof ball in the group was doing his best to feign sleep. And it was hard to do with the presence of the woman he cared deeply for in such close proximity.

He had been in love with the yellow Ninjetti for years…ever since high school. The big reason he had never asked her out…

He was a goof ball…and he couldn't help it. And for some reason beautiful girls didn't like goof balls…they all wanted romantic men…and he was just too goofy to be romantic. It was in his blood…and he took pride in it.

So rather then feel icy cold rejection from the one woman he was really in love with….he just didn't ask her out at all.

But now…with everyone around him in love…and all sappy…he was beginning to feel very lonely.

"Rocky de Santos? I know you're not asleep."

He was startled out of his thoughts and felt her shadow over him…but the prank was in play…and so he fought to remain still.

Aisha hid a grin as she picked up one of her pillows and threw it at him.

"Wake up Ape Boy. I know you're faking."

Rocky didn't move…but he was smiling inwardly.

So, that's how the boy wanted to play. Well, there's more then one way to skin a cat. Aisha grinned walked over to him and bent down.

"Rocky....there's hot food in the kitchen...we're having hot cakes."

Damn. She was using his weakness against him.

"Mmm." he moaned softly in spite of himself…but remained stock still.

Aisha loved to play games too. She bent closer to his ear. "And sausage."

She was rewarded when he licked his lips.

Aisha shook her head and sat down on her bed studying the red Ninjetti as he continued to fake sleep. He really was handsome…especially when he slept…even though he was faking it at the moment.

She never admitted it to anybody…but Rocky was really a wonderful man in her eyes. He was a nice change to all the other guys when she went to school with him. While all the others were serious…smart…and utterly boring, Rocky in his own way was the sort of rebellious type. He was goofy a prankster and never dull. And though he would never admit it out loud…he had his moments where he was very sweet.

But at the moment. He was giving her a challenge…and the yellow ranger in her was not about to give up.

That was when she got the idea.

"Rocky? I know you moved my cot. If you don't get up I'll have Zack and Jason throw you in the snow...in your boxer shorts."

Rocky shivered at the thought of…he shivered again.

Busted. He was so busted.

He opened his eyes. "Okay…okay, I'm up. No need to get violent."

Aisha grinned knowing she had won this round. And now she could get answers.

"There...was that so hard?"

Rocky shook his head grinning at her.

"Now ape boy. I know you moved my bed...why?"

Rocky swallowed feeling blood rushing to his face. "Well.…"

He watched Aisha as she sat down on her own bed. "Well what?"

Rocky took a deep breath trying to steady himself. He hadn't thought about it…he'd just wanted her close. He took another deep breath.

"It's just everyone else has someone...I figured we could be alone...together.

Aisha was surprised and she felt her gaze soften. Rocky? Do you really feel that way about me? Is that why you moved my cot?"

Rocky blushed hotter. "Well.…"

Aisha could hardly believe what he was saying…he never expressed himself like this. All she could do was sit on the bed and patiently wait for him to continue.

Rocky took another deep breath trying to find his calm center. We were the only single ones here I just thought." he trailed off again looking down into his lap.

"Mmm. you got a point." Aisha said as she looked at her lap before looking up at him. "Is that the only reason?"

But rocky was in his own little world…and was suddenly very interested in the mattress.

"Rocky?" Aisha said as she sat on his bed awkwardly…really not sure what to say.

Why did it have to be so hard to speak his feelings?

"I...um.....well...I...thought...that."

Rocky was beginning to fidget. And to the former yellow ranger…he couldn't look more adorable…and Aisha fought the chuckle that was threatening to come out of her mouth…but then she saw utter frustration dominate Rocky's face.

So in a softer voice she prompted him. "Yes?"

"I...thought…DAMN IT!" Rocky through his fists down in frustration and started to get up.

"Rocky wait." Aisha said putting a hand on his arm.

Rocky looked up at her in surprise as she looked pleadingly into his eyes.

"Please...if there is something you wanted to tell me...then please don't make me wait to hear it."

Rocky sat back down…fighting the urge to panic. This was it…now or never…he had no choice but to spill it now.

He sighed. "I just don't know how to 'Ish...I can't figure out how to say it."

"Then just say it...I won't think less of you if it comes out wrong."

Rocky sighed again. "Ish you know me. I'm the goof ball of all of us this is new for me… but I'll try"

He looked up at her again and saw her smiling softly at him waiting patiently for him to finish.

"I would love it if you would spend Christmas with me."

"Rocky...we are spending Christmas together."

She could see the frustration on his face and decided to help him out…after all, she did have her own secrets to tell him.

"I love your goof ball attitude...and your playfulness never leaves me bored."

Rocky looked up at her in surprise as she continued. "You're an awesome red."

"Really?"

Aisha bit her lip.

"Do you know why I moved back to Angel Grove after I came back from Africa?"

"Why?"

"Because you were there."

Rocky smiled. "Really?"

"Yes."

Now it was Aisha's turn to blush and study the mattress. Until she felt a finger lifting her chin…and then Rocky's eyes locked with hers.

Her heart was beating erratically against her rib cage when she saw Rocky smiling at her…and then he was leaning forward placing a short soft kiss on her lips.

Warmth flowed through their veins as they felt their lips moved back and forth against the other…and then the kiss ended.

Rocky rested his forehead on hers. "I've wanted to do that for so long."

"I've been waiting for a long time...say it Rocky…say it please."

Rocky froze. What was she wanting him to say?

Aisha looked up at him a minute later with disappointment written into her features.

"It's okay Rocky. I understand if your not-"

"Ish…I love you…please don't leave."

Aisha sat back down as Rocky scooter closer to her and kissed her softly again.

Zack backed up the stairs. He was coming to tell them that breakfast but there…but he knew this was not a good time to interrupt them…after all, he had helped move the cot in the first place.

Up in the kitchen there was more drama going on. Billy had just woken up and found that his wife was not in bed with him.

Kat was sitting at the counter on a stool rubbing her back softly. She looked up at him and smiled weakly as he walked into the kitchen…and froze.

"Morning love."

"Don't try and sweet talk me Kat." He said with concern etched on his face. "Where were you?"

Kat bit her lip and looked at the floor…looking close to tears.

On seeing his wife's hormones in full swing he walked over and hugged her. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound harsh I was worried about you."

Kat hugged him back. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to worry you. I had the other girls with me...they wouldn't have let anything happen to me."

"What were you all doing?"

"It's a secret Billy...a girl thing....I can't tell you."

Billy sighed and looked ready to ask another question as the kitchen suddenly got busier. Trini and Jason had just entered the room…and so had Adam…clad in nothing but pajama bottoms…and he looked well rested…and really happy.

Jason, of course, was the first to speak. "Adam? Is that you? I didn't think you'd ever come out."

Trini couldn't help but join in. "I thought you had vanished."

"Tanya and I were talking about tomorrow."

Jason smirked. "Just talking?"

Adam blushed and glared at him. "Shut up Jason."

Then Billy decided to join in…smirking.

"My observation tells me that all the blood as reached your face…" the blue ninja trailed off. "Are you blushing?"

Adam was saved as Tyler walked into the room. "Hey Dad. Morning!"

"Hey buddy." he answered enveloping his son in a hug.

Tyler hugged back and then moved to the fridge in search of the chocolate milk. "How's mom?"

Jason saw his opening…and he was not ready to stop teasing the victim. "Yes. how is his mom? he asked giving Adam a pointed look.

Adam glared back. "She's fine."

Tyler looked at his dad and then at Jason…and then at his dad again as Adam walked over and got a drink from the fridge.

Zack walked back in the room to catch the conversation and like his teammate…couldn't resist joining in. "It does seem strange that we haven't seen the blushing bride out here…"

Trini smiled at Adam. "I hope she won't be too tired for the party tomorrow."

Adam groaned again.

Tyler looked up at the grown ups in confusion, trying to decode the meanings of their comments having heard their conversation as he walked in.

"Dad?" he said concentration hard to bring his thoughts together

"Yeah Ty?"

"Um...are you and mom making a baby?"

At this innocent question every cracked up laughing causing Tyler to blush and Adam to bang his head on the counter and groan.

"Aren't you a little young to be worrying about that?"

Tyler blushed brighter. "I'm sorry dad…but...um...isn't that what all you grownups are talking about?"

Adam chuckled trying to regain his dignity. "Yeah it was." his gaze softened as his curiosity took over.

"What would you think if me and mom had a baby?"

Tyler shrugged. "It'd be cool to have a little brother...or even a sister."

Adam looked at his son steadily. "Really?"

Tyler shrugged. "Yeah...I guess so. I wouldn't mind being a big brother."

Adam watched speechless as his son walked back into the living room…and then glared as the others laughed again.

"When he wants the talk you guys are giving it to him."

Jason laughed. "No problem bro...if the movies and TV don't give it to him first…"

Billy spoke up again. "I'm surprised you haven't given the talk to him already."

"He's 9!!"

Jason laughed. "And he's got a girlfriend… Tommy's daughter."

Adam groaned again. "I hate you guys."

"No you don't....and hate is such a strong word." Jason said smirking.

Billy broke the kiss he had been indulging in with Kat. "I never thought I'd hear that from you Adam...the frog...the one you kiss to get a handsome prince

Adam sighed. "I guess you're right."

Trini smiled at him softly. "Go on Adam. Your princess will get lonely."

Adam smiles. "And cold." he added as he walked off before they could say any thing else.

The group watched him go before they cracked up laughing again.

Jason smiled at Trini and then looked back at the others. "We should call the maid service and have them burn the sheets and scour the room once they get their own cabin."

Billy looked at him steadily. "Yeah...Kat and I don't want to sleep where those two have been...indulging."

Jason smirked. "Like you two don't?"

Billy smirked and rubbed Kat's belly gently.

Trini groaned. "Jason sweetie...I can't be here anymore...I think I'll take a nap."

Billy couldn't resist. "Hey Jason, I think you better stay in here." He said smirking. "You follow her it will be a while before you get to sleep."

Trini turned to him as she climbed the first step with Jason behind her and scowled at Billy. "Weather we sleep or not is none of your business."

Billy chuckled as he turned back to his wife and continued massaging her back. That was when he noticed that Kat had her cell phone out and was texting something…but it was in code.

Spa 3 hours…pinks and yellows only.

He bit back the next question as Kat closed her phone shut and they dug into their breakfast.

In the living room as Terra and Tyler cuddled watching Frosty the Snowman on the TV. TJ was in the corner talking softly on his cell phone.

He closed his phone with a grin on his face.

Terra looked over at him hearing is thoughts.

::Anxious to see your girlfriend?::

::She's not my girlfriend…yet::

He threw up his mental wall before she could read his thoughts and sauntered off to the kitchen to eat.

Trini lay on the bed with Jason spooning her and holding her tightly against him.

Her cell phone beeped and she reached over to the nightstand and unplugged it from the charger. She grinned as Jason softly kissed the back of her neck before gently rubbing her little bump that she was getting.

She opened her phone and accessed the message…and frowned in confusion.

Spa 3 hours…pinks and yellows only.

"Hey baby…what's that?" Jason asked as he planted small kisses on her shoulder.

"Mmm. nothing…its nothing…the girls want to meet up for a trip to the spa…mmm. I think I'll join them…"

"Sounds good. you deserve it." Jason said as his hands wandered causing Trini to moan softly.

If I remember. she told herself as Jason caused her thoughts to cloud over.

What do you guys think?

Just to clarify...there are two days till the wedding and one more day after that till Christmas!

Up next a trip to the spa for the girls and some talks among the boys as they plan out the bachelor(ette) parties. more fun ahead!
