Chapter Twelve

Thomas and Kimberly. Part one

Tommy exited his room and headed quietly down the hall to Kimberly's room. He knocked gently on the door and heard movement. The door opened and Kim poked her head out.

Tommy noticed her damp hair and the pink silk robe that covered her body.

"Um… Tommy, hi. Come in, come in." She said waving him into her room. She moved to her bed and sat. Grabbing her bottle of St. Ives lotion, she placed some in her palm and rubbed her hands together before place the moisturizer onto the skin of on of her legs.

Tommy instantly shifted as he watched her move her hands over her smooth skin. He noticed as she bent down to apply the lotion to her ankle how her rode fell open and he could see her breast. He also noticed, Kim wasn't paying him any mind at the moment and adjusted himself before he moved to sit next to her on the pink comforter.

"Um… Kimberly," He began clearing his throat.

"Yeah," she said as she reached for the container once more.

"We need to talk."

"About what?"

"How to begin?" he mumbled to himself before shifting again. He then decided to stat bluntly. "Sex."

Kim paused in mid stroke and looked him in the eye. A shiver of fear flowed through her. She was afraid of that. Even though she was afraid she knew there was nothing to fear when Tommy was near.

"What about it?"

"Are you a virgin?"

"Straight to the point." Kim stated flatly. "I think it's time I told you the whole story about Michael and then you can tell me whether I'm a virgin or not."

Tommy nodded and Kim took in a deep breath and letting it out slowly she began to tell Tommy about what had happened to her during her first months in Florida.

Jason and Katherine.

Jason rested in his bed with the woman he loved. Kat's head rested on his chest. Her blonde hair fanned out on his skin. Jason's hand stroked her bare arm and shoulder. They were perfectly content after making love as soon as they entered the room.

"Jason?" Kat's Australian accent sounded pleasant as it reached his ears.

"Yes?"

Kat cooed, loving the sound of her lovers deep voice. She felt him kiss her on top of her head. His fingers moved to play with her soft hair.

"This is Heaven."

"Yes, it is."

There was silence for a while and Jason moved from underneath Katherine. He reached for his leather jacket at the foot of the bed.

"Jason?" Kat asked sitting up. A concerned expression crossed her beautiful features.

Jason said nothing as he fished around in a pocket. Finding what he was looking for, the former gold ranger moved back to the blue eyed woman.

"Jason, what is that?"

Jason again said nothing as he showed her the red velvet ring box. Opening the box, a pink diamond with two small rubies on either side of it set in a gold band appeared. Kat gasped and stared at the treasure. Jason smiled removing the ring from the box. Setting the box on the nightstand behind him, Jason took Katherine's left hand in his and looked her straight in the eye.

He sighed and closed his eyes for just a second. Despite his calm exterior, Jason was extremely nervous inside. The last time he did this, Emily turned him down flat.

Opening his mouth to ask his question, but before he could get out a word, Kat smiled at him.

"Yes, I will marry you?"

With that said she swooped in for a passionate kiss. Jason placed the ring on her pale finger before kissing her back.

They were going to get married.

William and Hayley.

Billy closed his eyes as he and Hayley sat by a tree in his backyard. They were stare gazing.

Billy had shared his knowledge of the constellations of Aquitar. The red head had seemed generally interested in what he had to say, but he was still self conscious of being near her.

Ever since their initial hand shake, Billy and Hayley were drawn together for some reason and his wolf spirit howled in his ears proudly whenever he saw her. It was like the spirit recognized its mate or something. He wondered if this is how it felt when Kimberly and Tommy were together or when Rocky and Aisha are near one another. Did the spirits know whom the were supposed to be with.

Well whatever it was, this was pleasant. The red haired genius had fallen asleep under his arms and Billy held her close as he thought of how non-logical these feelings were.

He felt the way he did when he was with Cestria but different. He felt as if this was right.

Glancing down at the woman who was just as smart as he was he heard the call of his spirit once more.

"Well if you are happy my friend," He said to himself. "Then I am happy too."

Billy brushed an auburn strand from the Hayley's face and kissed her upon her head. Her smelled of blueberries. His favorite fruit.

Hayley shifted slightly finding more comfort near her companion. She smiled and allowed her dreams to fell her usually busy mind.

This wasn't bad. It wasn't bad at all.

Zachary and Trini.

Trini rested on her side gazing lovingly at her husband. The thought of Zack being her husband still amazed her. Who would have thought she would marry Zachary Taylor. He was the joker, the player, the entertainer in their group. While she was the calm, peaceful, reasonable one.

With a sigh the Vietnamese woman rolled over to her back and placed a hand upon the small of her stomach. Their child was growing inside her.

A small smile appeared on her lips. The thought of becoming a mother thrilled her more than it scared her. They were finally going to have a baby.

They had been trying for almost two years. Each time she missed her period their hopes would build, but a trip to the doctor would crush them. Not now. She was pregnant. They knew for sure and she intended to do all in her power to make sure nothing happened to her unborn child.

Trini started as Zack placed his hand over hers.

"Is it possible to love someone before you even know them?" he asked her softly.

"I hope so. I already love our baby too."

Tears formed in her eyes at the thought of loving someone so much. Zack kissed her gently on the lips.

"You scared?" He asked as he rested his head gently next to hers so that they touch.

"No, not really. I'm just so happy." She said guiding their hand as she stroked her abdomen.

"Me too. Hey, we should get some sleep." Zack said as he shifted her so she was lying on her side. Her back pressed against his firm chest.

Trini only nodded as she allowed her husband to put her into the position he desired. Both of them drifted off to sleep. Their hands never leaving her belly.

Adam and Tanya.

The Parks rested soundly in the huge tub in their bathroom. Scented candles surrounded them in a soft glow. Adam had his back leaned against the wall of the basin and Tanya was reclined so her back touched his chest as she sat between his knees.

There was nothing sexual about this bath. This was just away they spent their time together at night. This is what they did after dinner every night. There were no worries, just a soothing bath. This was their time.

"I love you." Tanya whispered out of the blue.

"I love you too." Adam whispered back kissing her ear.

"This was a wonderful idea."

"Yeah," Adam said back as he wrapped his arms around her. "We've been doing this ever since our wedding night."

"Yeah," Tanya said as she embraced his arms. Closing her eyes she sighed.

They had been too nervous their first night as husband and wife to make love. So, to get used to each others body Adam suggested that they took a bath together. Tanya immediately thought he was up to something, but thought better of it. Adam just wasn't like that. It must have been hard for him to come up with the idea.

"You know," Tanya began. "This may be the only years we get to do this."

"What do you mean?"

"When we have children, we won't be able to lounge in the tub for long periods of time."

"That's true."

Silence filled the air as the enjoyed each others company. This is what life was supposed to be. Time enjoyed with someone you cared about and this was the best time they could have.

When they were in the bath together, nothing else matter. Even if they had had a fight that day, it was completely forgotten with gentle kisses and the soothing water.

"Tanya?"

"Hmm?"

"Do you think that we were all rangers for a reason?"

"Of course, to save the world."

"No, I mean," He paused as he thought out what he wanted to say next. "I mean, to bring us all together."

"Huh?"

"Think about it. Very few of us would have are loves if we weren't rangers. Sure, Trini would have Zack and Kimberly would still had her time with Tommy and let's not forget Rocky and Aisha, but for the rest of us. If we never were rangers, Jason and Kat probably would have never met and neither would have you and I."

"That's true. I guess we were all chosen for reasons more than we could ever had imagined."

"Yeah." Adam smiled at his wife's understanding. He pulled her closer and nuzzled her neck.

They were silent for a while before Tanya shifted. She was feeling amorous now. It wasn't rare for one of them to turn their quiet time into something more and when Tanya moved purposely over her husband's penis, that usual meant the candles near the tub was about to go out. There would be a lot of slashing.

Tanya smiled to herself. Every time that would happen she would wake up to clean the mess only to find that her caring husband had gotten to it first. Oh, how she love her Frog Prince.

On his part Adam moaned at the sensation of his wife's round bottom moving across him. He also smiled as he immediately went to work on her neck.

"As Aisha once said, 'This is gonna be one messy night.'" Adam said before his hands began to roam.

Rocky and Aisha.

In another room, another amorous couple was preparing for a late night romp.

Rocky sat on the king sized bed he shared with his wife waiting patiently for Aisha to appear out of the adjoining bathroom.

This was going to be the first night they made love in a couple of weeks. They were both just too busy to make love. With Aisha working at the animal clinic and he on a case at the firm, they had no time to themselves.

They both would return home exhausted after a days work. Sometimes one or the other would crash on the couch, not even having the energy to make it to their bedroom.

When Aisha did this, Rocky was usually still at the office so he would return home to find her dead asleep. Those times, no matter how exhausted he was, he would pick her up and carry her to bed. He even would put her in her pajamas so she was more comforted and didn't reek of dogs and cats.

Those were the nights he would think over their career choices. Their jobs were going to kill them someday and soon too. So Rocky made himself a promise. That in a couple of years he would open his own dojo and ask his wife to take less hours so that they could concentrate on them and having a family. Now the more he thought about it the sooner that day would have to come. They were starting to look their age and for them that was not good. Ever since he could remember they had never truly looked their age. They just had this youthful look to them and he wanted it to remain that way for their own health.

The sound of a door opening and closing brought Mr. DeSantos out of his thoughts. A smile crossed his face as his eyes rested on his wife's form.

Aisha was wearing a pale yellow slip that barely made it past her pelvis. The silky fabric clung to her curves nicely and the front dipped low enough to barely cover her bosom. To say the least, Rocky was very happy to see his wife. In fact, he was so happy he wasted no time rising and taking her into his arms for a smoldering kiss.

"So I take it you like it?"

Rocky growled as he lifted her into his arms to place her on the bed.

Thoughts of their careers laid to rest for the time being as the made love.

Trent and Kira.

Trent and Kira sat on the patio facing away from the first blue ranger and their technical advisor. They allowed their legs to hang over the side. Trent's feet touched the ground while Kira's toes barely scrapped the tops of the grass.

"So, prom is coming up." Trent said anxiously.

"Yeah, but I don't think I will go."

"Why not?"

"It's just for those who are preppy and self centered. That's all."

Silence.

"So, what do you plan on doing after school?" Trent tried again.

"I don't know try for a record contract."

"I think you can get one."

"Really?" Kira said moving closer to the white ranger.

"Yeah, you're real good." Trent paused and looked the Ptera Ranger in the eye. "Kira would you like to, I don't know, go out with me sometime?"

"You mean like a date?"

"Yeah."

"Um… sure, but under one condition?"

"What's that?"

"We date after Mesogog is defeated. I've been hearing stories about how hard it is to date when you have to save the world."

"Ok."

Trent reached over and took Kira's small hand into his. He smiled at the feeling of just this simple touch. Kira moved so that their sides touched and she rested her head upon his shoulder.

This was nice.

Thomas and Kimberly. Part two

Tommy listened intently to Kim's story. He took note of her lying to him about seeing Michael before she wrote the letter, but that didn't matter any more. He wanted nothing more than to hunt down Michael and Richard for hurting his Crane.

"So now you tell me?" Kim said not even looking him in the eyes. "Am I a virgin or not?"

Tommy noted the bitterness behind her questions and he didn't want to answer them. Instead he held her close to him. One hand held her shoulders and the other held her head to his chest.

"I am so sorry, Kim."

"Don't be." Kim said into his black shirt.

He really did look good in black and even though Kimberly had just told him of her sad tragic life, she still only wanted to have sex with him. Memories of her thoughts in the shower clouded her thoughts as Tommy began to gently massage her back.

Kim couldn't help but notice she was still in her bathrobe and for once since Michael she could have cared less if she was taken advantage of.

Tommy on the other hand, couldn't stop thinking about how she had been hurt and he didn't give a damn if she had nothing on but a thin pink silk bathrobe on. Then again as realization kicked in, Dr. Oliver was dearly wishing he wasn't holding the formed pink ranger so close as things began to stir, but for the love of God he did not want to do something she wasn't ready for. Besides, where would he get a condom.

Nex t chapter Kim and Tommy finally do it. It will more than like be short on but I have always planned on making this story more mature than what this site allows. I would love it if anyone is willing to post my story on their site and is willing to post even the mature chapter.

Anyways, what do you think of this chapter. It's the longest. I really wanted to take some focus off of Kim and Tommy for a little bit. The rest of the story is mainly going to be about them.

Just to tell you, there are two ranger pairings I CANNOT stand. Number One: Tommy and Kat, at least married anyway. Dating I can handle. Number Two: Conner and Kira. I've seen most of the Dino Thunder episodes and I just don't see it. To me they're like brother and sister. And don't point out moments. I also have vol. 1- vol. 4 on vhs and vol. 5 on dvd. And other episodes recorded. so (sticks out tonuge). So with that said do not expect to see any future stories from me with those pairings.

Oh, and for once I'm not dissing a chapter. This one turned out better than I thought, considering I had writer's block.
