Lucky for me, I'm still on Spring Break so that I can write more. - Also, I read some other Sky/Syd fics and they gave me some ideas. Thanks to you guys for realizing that Sky/Syd belong with each other! I'm sorry that I can't remember everyone. Thanx for the reviews guys! You made my day cuz it was pretty crappy to begin with.

I'd Do Anything- Chapt. 2

It was a very restless night for Sky. He tossed and turned thinking about Syd. He even woke up Bridge, who, being a psychic, felt the huge waves of emotion coming from him. Nervousness, guilt, love, and impatience were broadcasted to Bridge as though Sky was a human satellite. Sky almost had the nerve to get up and go to Syd's room to reveal his undying feelings right in front of her at the ungodly hour of 3 a.m. But he just couldn't. He decided to wait until morning.

As he turned, he looked at his clock. It read 6:04 a.m. 'It already is morning!' he exclaimed mentally to himself. He already started wishing that this day could be over with sooner. So he decided to start it with his normal routine of taking a jog around the academy's track. He got up and put on his running shoes, a blue hooded jacket, and a pair of black track pants with a blue stripe down the side. Running helped him to vent his emotions, whether it be anger or frustration. So he quitelyslipped out of the roomwithouttrying to wake up Bridge in the process. Little did he know, that Bridge was already awake from the tensionaroused. "Man, I'm glad he's gone. Now I can finally get some sleep." he groaned as he rolled over.

Sky jogged around and around the track, but he couldn't take his mind off Syd. The more he thought about her, the faster and harder he ran. He had to do something to free himself from his tantalizing love for her. He thought and thought about what to say to her. How would he say it? When would he tell her?

"Hey Sky." He almost jumped back at the sound of her voice. He instantly snapped out of his daydreaming. It was her. It couldn't be. But wait, it really was her jogging in perfect stridewith him. What is she doing here?

"I said hi" she said once again. Sky just kept running not knowing what to say. He fumbled aimlessly for the right thing to say. "Um, hey Syd. W-what are you doing up s-so early?" That was his best offer."I'm doing the same thing as you. Am I not allowed to join you? I thought that you could use some company." Once again, she hit his soft spot. Every time she spoke to him it made him melt (only on the inside of course). She flashed a brilliant smile at him to get his attention. For about the thousandth time, he felt so good around her. He only wished that he could be with her all of the time.

After staring at her, beautiful as she was, he finally responded to her previous question. "I guess it's okay. Nobody has ever cared to join me before. That's all. I guess it's because everyone thinks that I'm such a jerk."

Suddenly, Syd stopped. Sky also stopped when he saw his pink princess-in-waiting come to a halt. "I don't think you're a jerk. At times you go off on people, like when Cruger picked Jack to be the red ranger, but you had the right to be angry. You're the best fighter on the team. You also have the best knowlegde of the SPD handbook.Everyone knows it, even Jack. Other than that, you can be really sweet." Sky couldn't help but smile.

"You really think so?" asked Sky, awe-struck and without thought.

"Yeah. I really do. Just don't tell the other guys or Cruger I said so'cause they might think thatI like you or something. This would be the second time that I stood up for you." stated Syd. Sky juststood there, half crushed and half on the verge of tears. He tried his best not to get teary-eyed because it would ruin his not-any-fun-or-never-shows-any-emotion attitude.

"Thanks. Those are the two best things anyone has ever said to me. Well, when Cruger accepted us as rangers comes pretty close, but still. Wow.Nobody, I mean nobody, has ever called me sweet before. Man, I'm starting to sound more like you every minute." Sky couldn't believe what he just said. Is it true? Is he really becoming more like her? He would have to wait to find out.

"I think the reason people think that you are such a jerk is because they don't get to know you very well." Syd confessed.

"What?" Sky said, again, without thought.

"Um, yeah. No offense, but you treat everyone except forme like crap." Syd closed her eyes and stood in a defensive posture to prepare for the unevitable. She thought that she had gotten under his skin. She thought that she had irritated him. But he just stood there with a crooked grin on his face and that one famous eyebrow cocked.

"Oh really. And how would that be?" Sky said slyly. He had a smile on his face.Not a forced one, but a truly genuine smile. It was one of the few times he was actually himself. He playfully nudged Syd who was completely dumbfounded. Mr. Sky Tate actually smiling. It couldn't be true. But it was.

Syd lightened up after a bit. She put on her own sly smirk."Not how you're acting right now. I bet that if we walked into headquarters right now, you would plaster on that boring serious face with no emotion whatsoever. Admit it, you act different around me. It's like when we're with the rest of the team, you're all depressed and everything."

Sky erased all signs of hapiness off his face. His face became unreadable like always. His next moves were unexpected.

"Syd."

"Yeah. What's wrong? You're suddenly all emotionless again. Are the Krybots attacking again or something?"

"No."

"What is it then?"

"Oh nothing. It's just that for the past few days I've felt different about you. Like now, I notice the little things likehow your hair is all glossy in the sunlight and how funny you are when you pout. Ever since the day that we were put on diamond guarding duty together, I seem to be more attentive of you." They both saw something flash in each other's eyes as they slowly came closer to each other. Passion. Or was it?

"What are you trying to say?" Sydbacked awaycompletely awestruck about what she might do. Did she seriously feel that wayabout Sky? Did he like her that way?

"That, I'm just trying to say that..." he was interrupted as theyonce again neared closer together...

BBBBBEEEEEPPPPP!

"Cadets Tate and Drew please report to the Command Center immediately. I repeat, Cadets Tate and Drew plaease report to the Command Center immediately for morning roll call." Commander Cruger's voice boomed loud and clear over the loudspeaker.

"Duty calls."stated Sky in his usual serious no-nonsense voice. He quickly ran off to the meeting room leaving Syd standing there.

"Are you coming or not? demanded Sky.

"I'll be right there." replied Syd on the verge of tears although Sky didn't notice.

As soon as Sky was clear from sight, Syd cried.She cried and cried.She didn't know what was happening between them. Why was she so emotional towards him? Shethought that she didn't like him like that, but deep down, she was hurting. Was it love? There was only one way to find out. To confront Sky once and for all.


Together we broke all the rules

Dreamin' of droppin' outta school

To leave this placeto never come back.

So now, maybe after all these years

If you miss me have no fear

I'll be here

I'll be waitin',

This could be the one last chance to make you understand.

I'd do anything just to hold you in my arms

To try to make you laugh

Somehow I can't put you in the past.

I'd do anything just to fall asleep with you

Would you remember me

Cuz I know I won't forget you.

Syd finally made her way to the meeting room. On her way there, she thought about everything. Her and Sky and if she truly loves him and if he likes her back. Little did she know, that Sky harbored the same feelings for her.

Sorry for the short chapter. I'll add more tomorrow. This fic will probably be over with only about 5 chapters if that. I'm not good at writing long stories. - Smallville'sAmusedRebelMel AKA Mel
