Okay I am going to attempt to wrap up this story and to let you know right now I have no idea how it is going to end. Okay. You know I don't own them and suing would be a waste of time as I don't get enough money so just enjoy.
A few days passed as the newest set of love birds tried to explore the realm of same sex dating. To their complete surprise things were not as hard as they thought. While their relationship looked odd to many the simple fact that they were together was enough for them.
Hunter had come to terms with his feelings more and more as he spent time with Dustin. He really felt relaxed even in stressful arrangements. As long as he was able to see Dustin smile it was worth it all the time. And one thing he had come to know was that it took a lot to stop Dustin from smiling. With the exception of the fight his brother had with him, something Blake had yet to revile, Dustin had never looked unhappy. And today was no exception to the norm. As he sat with Dustin's head in his lap, cuddled up on the couch and watching a comedy about who knew what, Hunter felt Dustin laugh. His body shook and he was glad that the apartment was empty except for them. Blake and Tori were out on their umpteenth date and Hunter did not mind. He gazed down at Dustin who had now shifted to his right side. He leaned down and kissed his head. He watched as Dustin kissed the back of his hand he was holding. 'Dustin I love you' Hunter thought to himself as he brushed the hair with his hand. He closed his eyes as the move started to end and the light from outside began to fade.
Dustin glanced up to see Hunter with his eyes closed and his breathing heavy. He smiled as he lifted himself off the couch and walked to the kitchen for a drink. He unruffled his yellow shirt and straightened his boxers as to avoid something making a surprise visit. He looked on at Hunter as he drank cold water from the bottle. He really was happy with him and wanted to stay that way. 'Finally after years of lies, and a mask of happiness' Dustin trailed off in his own mind as he laid back down on the couch. His body as close to his as possible. He slowly inhaled the scent of lavender from Hunter's blonde hair before whispering into his ear. "I love you Hunter", with that he slowly closed his eyes and fell off to sleep.
Shane was at the skate park as he had been for the past couple of days, attempting to stay as far away as possible from the nightmare that engulfed him. He was so in touch with his practice that he didn't notice him behind him. Once he finally stopped and turned to try his trick again did he notice the young Asian. Shane swallowed hard as Blake walked towards him. He really did not have anything to say to him and this time was not any good either. He wanted to run but knew it would soon come to a time when he needed to talk to him. He slowly walked over to him and reached out his hand. Blake took it and gave a firm shake. "I know what you want to talk about. Let me just say everything is okay between us but I just want you to take care of Tori." With that he turn and started to walk away. Tears fell to the ground as he heard Blake talking to someone behind him. Someone he had laid his feelings on the line for and now he would never get her.
Tori had convinced Blake to come with her to find Shane and to tell him how she felt. She had heavy reliance on Blake for support yet somewhere deep inside she knew he would be of little help if Shane wanted to talk alone. It came as a shock when he said he wanted Blake to take care of her and he walked away. She was not finished with her mission and followed him without Blake beside her. She knew he was not okay and she wasn't sure if she could help but she was determined to try. She gently placed her hand on his shoulder as he cried at the edge of the forest. He had walked aimlessly for about a half an hour when he ended up here and she had followed him the whole way. She sat next to him on the log he was parked at. She half smiled hoping it would help. No response. She figured as much. She opened her mouth to speak but he beat her to the punch. "Tor, if you are in love with him then it will take a while but I will be fine. So please don't say anything you may not mean." She bit her bottom lip and stared at him as he continued to cry. She wanted to say something but nothing came to her. She slowly rose and leaned forward a little to look him in the eyes. "Shane, if you ever want to talk about this, you know to help with the pain, I will always be there for you" With that she left him to his own devices.
Cam sat back, stretching and yawning in unison as he looked away from the computer for the first time in fourteen hours. He was possessed to dive as far into something as not think about the other day. He shuddered as he remembered some of it. He remembered wanting to do something to the red ranger and that something had never crossed his mind before. He smiled slightly as he knew what it meant and the smile faded as reality sunk in. Shane was straight he wasn't and that was a open and shut case. Still he felt like shoving Shane to the nearest wall, grabbing his collar and kissing him so deep that he could die. But he knew that Shane would flip and the last thing he needed was to end up like Dustin and Blake, getting into a fight that left both equally damaged. He rose to his feet and glanced at his watch. It nearly midnight and he had not heard from anyone, not even his father. He wasn't worried for once, actually relived that no major crisis was going on. He walked over to the stairs that lead out of the Ops when he bumped into Shane.
Shane had decided to go to the Ninja Ops in hope that he would be able to talk to Cam about anything that came to his mind. He knew Cam would be closed and reserved at first but he had made up his mind to force him to open up. He had noticed that twinkle in the samurai rangers eyes the other day. Not the usual malice and loathing that he usually carried but a softer, loving, side he had not seen him possess. He wanted to talk about that to. But most of all he wanted to not be rejected. He cursed under his breath and ran his hand through his hair as he entered the portal. 'Wonder if he is still up' Shane thought as he slammed right into who he was looking for. He noticed the tired looking in the others eyes and started to think that coming here this late may not have been that great of an idea. He smiled lightly and offered his apologies and turned to leave. He was shocked as Cam rested his body weight against him and closed his eyes. "Shane, I'm tired. Will you help me to my room" Cam's voice echoed the exhaustion his body wore. Shane complied, wrapping his arm around his waist and guiding him to his room.
Once Shane laid him in his bed Cam closed his eyes and didn't say anything as Shane laid beside him. He was too tired to think about his crush sharing his bed with him and yet he felt safe and warm. "Warm because he practically is smothering me" Cam forced a slight smile to dance on his lips. He interlaced his fingers with Shane's causing Shane to move a little closer. "You...I ...not...but....it is...night" Cam failed to string his last sentence together leaving Shane a little more worried but not much. As Cam fell of to sleep his last sentence played in his mind. 'You know I am gay? But your straight. Weird as it is I am glad you are here tonight.' Shane buried his body close to him until he was bear hugging Cam. He too closed his eyes and leaned his head into Cam's neck. His lips just at Cam's ears. He breathed in deep contemplating his next words carefully. "Cam, please don't hurt me. I know I went for Tori instead of coming to you but I didn't know if you felt the same. Please don't hate me for that I just didn't want you to freak on me bro." He finished with some sort of creature doing cartwheels in his stomach, yet it felt somehow pleasant. He tested his limits and lightly kissed Cam's ear before falling into a beautiful dream.

Hunter and Dustin sat across from Blake in the Storm Chargers Break room. All three of them had stopped for a break and Hunter had silently been demanding an answer from him. Now they were silent and Dustin was humming and looking goofy. He was drinking a free soda Hunter had bought him and he was oblivious to the tension. Hunter was silently fuming at Blake and Blake was staring at something that was not on the wall behind Dustin. He drew in a sharp breath and started to talk. "What do you want to know?" He asked no one in particular. Hunter looked at him quizzically as if Blake had just been struck with amnesia. "You 'know' what Blake." Hunter seethed at his younger brother. This was one of his tactics that Hunter liked the very least in him. "Okay fine. I freaked because, well, one of the guys in our last school kind of hit on me and I freaked out. I guess it was such a shock, not having you tell me before hand Hunter, that I freaked on Dustin when he tried to explain." Blake let out a small sigh and took a sip from his root beer soda. He glanced at Hunter to look for an answer. Hunter seemed to register this for a moment and looked puzzled. "You mean you are the one who broke Alex's leg last year?" Hunter mused as Blake winced. He could only nod as a answer as Hunter's eyes fumed. "Well that explains why he did not want to go out with me." Hunter said defiantly as he threw his head in his hands. Blake felt that horrible feeling tugging at him. "You mean he wasn't flirting with me?" Blake asked in a small voice unbefitting of him. "Actually he had sought you out to ask you if it was okay if he asked me out. He still believed in the old fashion way of dating." Hunter said still looking into his palms. A slight tint of remorse in his voice. He had not known that Blake would have reacted this way. "So, like, then you freaked on me because you though I was hitting on you then?" Dustin had finally chimed into the conversation after hearing about Hunter's past lover. Blake and Hunter both stared at him for a moment taking in the response. "No I was pretty much pissed at the whole ordeal and it was way, way out of line. I really lost it, I am not homophobic, it's just that I have always felt close to Hunter and only want to protect him from any pain." Blake's voice was still small and a tear was falling from his eye. He looked at Dustin who was smiling. Blake was taken back by this and kind of half smiled back. "Dude, like I would ever hurt your brother." With that he drew Hunter in and kissed him on the lips. He parted and looked back at Blake. "Now on the other hand you have to teach me that move where you fake kick with your left and lead with your right." He chuckled and Hunter and Blake joined. "Well with that settled we better get back to work before Kelly finds us." The three got up abandoning their sodas and clambering back to the front.
Tori was walking into Cam's room when she heard what sounded like a small giggle. She was taken back knowing that Cam did not giggle. Her curiosity was peaked wondering if it was a girl in there with him. She slid the door back a little and peered in. A small gasp escaped her lips. There in Cam's bed was him and Shane. They were both clothed but Cam and Shane were, she stopped to register what she was seeing. They were making out like a pair of fourteen year olds. Her mind tried to grasp it wondering what Shane was doing despite his rather frump mood yesterday. But somehow she was smiling. She was happy for him, kind of, and she was surprised by Cam. He looked like was so happy and she had never seen him really happy like this. She contemplated opening the door all the way and acting like she tripped but no sooner had she tried to think of a move did the door jerk from her hand. Shane looked towards her as she fell to the floor and Cam was standing over her with a devilish grin on his face. "Look Shane we caught a snooper." He laughed at Shane who was attempting to fix a certain bulge in his pants. "Yeah Tor not a smooth ninja if you were caught by Cam." He laughed as Cam looked at him. Shane wore that you-diss-me-I-diss- you look on his face as Tori got up. "Funny really funny" she muttered as she dusted off her pants. "Care to explain Shane "a tint of anger was noted in her voice. He knew that was coming and was prepared. "No I do not care to explain. I had feelings for both you and Cam and well to be honest I liked Cam just a little more. I only tried to show my feelings for you cause I was unsure about how Cam felt." He paused she seemed to be taking this well and he had already explained it to Cam earlier when they had awoken. "So really I am look like a jerk or dick for running to Cam but, uhh, damn I don't know. I'm finally happy and I just want to stay that way." He was shocked when she came over and gave him a hug. She just smiled and turned to leave when she paused and said something over her shoulder. Shane smiled and Cam winked at him. She walked away closing the door and walked out of Ops to find her boy toy. Shane crossed over to Cam and hugged him. "She is right you know. Things did turn out for the best. So you want to ask Dustin or Hunter if they want to Double Date?" Little did they know Dustin had called Shane's morpher to talk to him and heard the whole thing. "How about tomorrow night around eight we could go see a movie." The two jumped as they heard Dustin laugh and Hunter laugh as well. "Okay tomorrow night then. But for now can we have a little privacy" with that Shane tossed his morpher in a drawer and tossed Cam into his bed.
