Hey guys, I decided that since they aren't in the ranger business anymore, Hayley, with the help of the ranger slightly remodeled Hayley's Cyberspace. Just cause my mind doesn't remember how it looked on the show, so if it is different, that's why.

Chapter 4: Smoothies

Tommy quickly opened his door and stepped out of the jeep before running over to the other side to help Kim out. She shooed him away looking somewhat annoyed, but she thought it was sweet. Still, she could get out of a jeep on her own. She wasn't that short.

Once she got out of the car and closed the door, she allowed Tommy to put his hand on the small of her back and lead her towards the door. He opened the door for her. He always was one of the chivalrous ones. Kim smiled to herself slightly shaking her head. Tommy didn't catch the movement and followed her inside.

Kim surveyed the space. There were four kids there, plus one behind the counter. There were circular tables here and there with chairs around them. One wall had a few computers on it. Another had a plasm tv mounted on it with a few couches nearby. There was a stage on the far wall. The counter wasn't very long, but it went farther out in to the room. It created a good sized nook with the two walls on one side. They had a few video games there.

Tommy, with his hand still on the small of her back, was now leading her toward the counter. The boy, clad in white looked up and smiled at Tommy. "Hi Dr. O." He greeted.

"Hey Trent. How's the café been today?" Tommy asked with a smile.

"Well, this has been the most we've had today. Your play thing is taking away all our customers." Trent mock accused.

"Hey, Kira begged you to come join. It isn't my fault you didn't listen." Tommy responded.

Trent just smiled, and shook his head. A boy dressed in blue approached the counter. "Hi, Dr. O."

"Hi Ethan." Tommy turned to Kim who looked a bit uncomfortable standing there. "Ethan, Trent, this is Kim. Kim this is Ethan and this is Trent. They're two students of mine."

When Trent heard the name Kim, he looked up seeing if it could be the same one from the movie. It was, and she was dressed in all pink, confirming his suspicions. The other three kids had just left. It was only the group of four now.

Realization quickly came over Ethan. He looked shell-shocked. Kim didn't understand why.

Trent laughed at the look on Ethan's face, immediately drawing Kim's attention. "Please ignore Ethan. He's a little star struck. He always wanted to meet a ranger from another team."

"Tommy, please tell me you didn't start a team!"

"Umm..."

"Oh God. When and why?"

"A few months ago and because evil monster were trying to destroy people. He's gone now though."

"Dr. O fought pretty well for an old guy too." Ethan put in.

"You... were one of them a-again?" Kimberly got out before passing out. Tommy quickly moved closer and caught her before she passed out.

"I seem to have this effect on her a lot." Tommy joked. He laid her softly on the ground. He sat by her head. He moved her head onto one of his legs, as he tried to wake her up. Ethan and Trent both sat on either side of her. She came to after a minute.

"Why do you keep doing that?" Tommy asked jokingly.

Kim just shrugged. "What color this time?" She asked sitting up.

"Black."

A small smile graced Kim's lips. She grabbed her purse off the ground and dug through it quietly. Finally she pulled out a cell phone and dialed a number. "'Sha. You owe me fifty bucks." There was a short pause as Aisha spoke on the other end. "Black." She stated simply before hanging up.

"What was that?" Trent asked.

"Well me and my friend Aisha got drunk one night and started making bets on stuff. She bet me Tommy's next color would be pink or yellow. Now she owes me fifty bucks." Kim stated very matter of factly.

"Wow." Tommy said helping Kim to her feet. "I have to wonder about all of you girls sometimes. I'm-"

Tommy was cut off by someone running into the Cybercafé. "Ethan, Trent we did it! We both got in!" A girl dressed in yellow came running in and jumped on both boys at the same time hugging them. Ethan signed that he was being choked.

"Yellow?" Kim asked. Tommy nodded.

"Kira!" A boy came running in after her. "How did she learn to run that fast?" He said out loud, but he was asking himself.

"Red?" Tommy nodded again.

Hearing Conner's voice, Kira released the two boys and turned to hug Conner... again. Seeing what he had brought upon himself, Conner quickly ran to hid behind a table. To the amusement of the room's other occupants, Kira chased the red ranger until she was able to hug him, five minutes after the chase began. At this point Kim was on the ground again laughing so hard she couldn't breath. Ethan was in the same condition, but he was laying on the ground. Tommy was trying to get Kim to breath again, while Trent half-heartedly tried to help Conner escape.

Finally everyone including Kira calmed down. Introductions were made, and the kids told Kim the stories about working with Tommy and fighting the bad guys.

"So, no pink?" Kim asked.

"Nope." Kira said. "I was the only girl."

Kim yet again pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number. "Kat. You owe me one hundred." Pause. "Tommy." Pause. "Nope. None at all. Tell Jase too." Pause. "I know!" Pause. "Ok, see you next month. Bye." Kim hung up again.

"Kat?" Tommy asked.

"Yep. When I said that me and 'Sha got drunk, I didn't mean we were the only ones. So did Kat, Jason, Zack, Adam, and Rocky. It was a lot of fun. Kat and Jason both owe me a hundred dollars each, because they both bet the next ranger team you helped with would have a pink ranger. You are making me a lot of money, boy."

"Oh God," Tommy laughed. "What am I going to do with you?"

Kim just smiled as Trent passed her a strawberry smoothie.

Two hours later Tommy pulled up to Kim's apartment building. "What to come in for dinner?" Kim asked.

"Sure," Tommy smiled. They walked up two flights of stairs and down a hallway to room 23C. Kim unlocked the door and led the way into her home. Tommy looked around the loft. The walls were an off-white color. There was a white couch sitting in the main room with a pink colored throw blanket hanging over the back. Opposite the couch was a tv, and in between the two was a coffee table. The coffee table had a few books strewn about the surface as well as a closed silver laptop. Off to his right was a small kitchen. There was a breakfast bar with three stools that separated the living room and the kitchen. Tommy also saw another room in the back. There was a half-wall. Past it he could see a bed with a light pink comforter. He also noticed countless bookshelves filled with books and trophies throughout the loft. She had done well for herself. It was simple, yet if felt very warm and inviting to him.

After surveying the room, he turned his attention back to Kim. She was in the kitchen humming to herself as she prepared some ham slices. She put them in the oven and told Tommy to go sit on the couch and she would be right out. When she sat down, they talked about what they had been doing with their lives, and talking about the ranger, new and old.

"Kim, I don't want to talk about the Letter now, because we are getting along so good, but I just wanted you to know I still love you." Tommy admitted.

"Tommy, I love you too." Kim whispered. Tommy pulled Kim closer to him content to know how she felt. He felt Kim pull his head down into a kiss. "Crap." Kim said.

"What? What's wrong?" Tommy panicked.

"Calm down. I just remembered that now I owe Rocky and Zack fifty bucks each." Kim pouted.

Tommy laughed. "Why?"

"Rocky bet me that you still loved me, and Zack bet me that we would end up kissing the day we first saw each other again."

"I won't tell Zack if you won't." Tommy offered.

"Deal." Kim agreed sealing the deal with another kiss.

Just then the timer went off. "Time for dinner, handsome."

They spent dinner talking about just how many bets Kim had made with the gang. After she finished tell him all of them he had to ask just how much she had drank. Tommy helped Kim with the dishes, then decided that he had to leave, because it was 6:30 and he still had a bunch of papers to grade.

At the door of Kim's loft, Tommy agreed to pick Kim up tomorrow, since she had left her car at the school. With a parting kiss, they said goodnight.

Kim leaned back against her closed door. Everything is Prefect. He still loves me. I love him.

XrachX - This was just fluff. I like fluff.

MaxCobra - Well, they will both be on the show, so they will see each other, especially when they schedule gets stricter.

TrueRomantic - No, they haven't talked about the letter yet, but they will. It was fun to make Tommy almost fall last chapter.
