You Never Knew



It was a lovely night at Angel Grove Park. Stars began to appear from the night sky and the cool breeze kept the night air cool. The moon was full and it shined so bright, if almost looked beautiful if you forget the fact that Lord Zedd and Rita lived there. It was a quiet night. Trini stood on the small bridge above a small stream, leaning against the rail as her eyes scanned the park. Her eyes found Kimberly and Tommy on the grass; lying on their backs, star gazing. She never saw Kimberly so happy. Pulling her gaze from the couple she watched Zack and Angela as they walked on the stone pathway, holding hands. The two friends passed Billy and Katherine who were sitting beside one another on the bench talking. Trini sighed, she never felt so alone. She didn't even want to bother in finding the other couple; she just returned her attention back to the stars. She was seriously considering moving, somewhere, anywhere besides Angel Grove. It wasn't like she was jealous, it's just she never felt so much hurt inside.

"A penny for your thoughts?" a voice behind her said.

Trini turned to see Jason behind. She gave him a weak smile as he joined her against the railing. "Hey, Jase" replied Trini who wasn't sure if she was more happy for his company or sad for not having more than just that. "Where's Emily."

"She had to go," answered Jason as Trini turned away. She looked up, focusing her eyes on the stars rather on Jason. "Can I ask you something Trini?"

"Did you ever need to ask for permission before?" questioned Trini, a bit hurt that their friendship had shifted back to where questions needed permission to be asked.

"No," Jason sadly said, realizing the small hurt he had caused her. He failed to keep in touch with her when he had left the Peace Conference and now that she was back, he nearly acted as if she was even there. He glanced up at her, as she gave him a patient look. She had let go of what he said and now was waiting. He straightened up, forgetting what he said to ask her the question that plagued his mind. "You never risk getting hurt did you?"

"Excuse me?" replied Trini as she gave him a puzzled look getting defensive.

"Look around you Trini. Every one of us has found someone to love. For as long as I have known you, you never dared to risk getting your heart broken over a guy" explained Jason, who felt sorry for his pretty Asian friend who had no one while everyone else had someone. Trini's eyes filled with water. She stared at her best friend with a hurt look on her face. Jason frowned when he realized the way he had just said things. "Trini, I'm sorry, I didn't mean for."

Trini interrupted him with anger in her voice, "You don't know anything, Jason." Trini's eyes were filled with fire and she turned to walk away from him. Never before had Jason ever gotten her mad.

"So tell me," Jason quickly said as he grabbed her wrist.

Trini struggled to have Jason release her wrist, but failed. "Let go of me, Jason" Trini seriously said as she stared coldly into his eyes.

"Not until you tell me," answered Jason, looking into Trini's eyes. He never saw her like this before. Trini continued to look at him and finally Jason slowly released her wrist. Trini turned to walk away. "You're always happy for us because we found someone. For once I just wanted to be happy for you. I want to see you happy."

Trini stopped in her steps and turned around. "You don't understand, do you Jase?"

"Understand what, Trini? Your crush on Richie that led to nothing or maybe the few dates at the Peace Conference that lasted a few nights?" argued Jason, it bother him that she was so mad at him.

Trini's face dropped and her eyes sadden. "You have no right in putting down my love life" Trini replied as she felt her eyes watered. She felt as if Jason had stabbed her for the second time.

"All I'm asking you, is why you never took the chance to find love," Jason calmly asked, realizing how much he was hurting Trini.

"I found love, just because I never took the risk to get hurt doesn't give you any right" started Trini as her emotions swung from anger to hurt.

"Who?" Jason replied, a bit shock. He never knew his best friend found the love of her life.

"Forget it" shook Trini as she attempted to walk away. Jason appeared in front of her, blocking her way. "Please, Jason. Let me go." Tears rolled down her face as she stared into Jason's soft dark brown eyes.

"If you love him why don't you tell him?" asked Jason, who wanted Trini to finally found a boyfriend, so she wouldn't have to feel so alone when she was with all of them.

"It's not that easy, Jase" answered Trini as she rolled her eyes, turning away from him

"I know that, but God all of us did" stated Jason as he stared at Trini's back. "We all risk getting hurt to find love."

"Don't you think I tried to? But each time I was lost for words to say. And don't you dare tell me I didn't get my heart broken because I was there every time he needed me to hook him up or to help him out with a girl and I did it" Trini argued as Jason's mind wondered naming all of the guys she could be talking about, but his mind was drawing a blank. "And every time I did it and every time I see him, my heart breaks. So just because I decided not to be selfish, but instead let him go and find love for himself doesn't mean I didn't try." Jason stared at her with silence. "You never knew, did you?" Trini's voice was now soft and the anger fade away.

"Never knew, what?" Jason quietly asked as Trini slowly turned around and stared at him with tears in her eyes.

"That all this time the guy that I love who hurt me so much inside, was you" Trini replied as tears rolled down her face as Jason stood in shock.

"Trini!" Jason called out as Trini walked away. She ignored his calls and as he ran up beside her and grabbed her by the hand. She turned to him and stared into his eyes. He froze when he saw the tears she cried and the hurt he had caused her deep inside. He didn't know what to say and allowed her hand to fall to her side. Before leaving Trini leaned over and kissed him on his cheek and whispered to him 'goodbye'.
