As a single tear slipped down Sky's cheek, several escaped Z's eyes.
She had thought she was coming here to be the bearer of bad news, but it looked like someone else had told him. Oh well, at least she got to be the one to give him the good news.
Thanks to her, Syd had realised that she loved Bridge too much to let him get away. In other words, she had made Syd realise her feelings by making her feel jealous.
Oh well, if she and Bridge hadn't made the deal to pretend to be going out, it might have been some other girl, for real.
Too bad the guy she loved liked Syd. She knew he was, he could see it in his eyes whenever he looked in the girls' direction.
She slipped out of the room and wiped her eyes. She rapped on the side of the door, before walking in.
"Knock knock! Messenger!" She grinned.
Sky wiped his eyes and turned to her. She felt the breath catch in her throat.
' He's gorgeous', she thought, not knowing he was thinking the same thing about her. She avoided looking in his eyes, and jumped onto his bed, as he leant against the windowsill.
"Hey Z. What's up?" Sky smiled at her.
She flopped back on his bed, but made sure she could still see him. "I've got news, duh. First on the list, you know how Jack quit to be with Ally? Well, Bridge has been promoted." She watched the expression of disbelief on his face for a few seconds before finishing. "To blue ranger. You are the new red ranger, congratulations!" She grinned as his jaw dropped.
"Secondly, Syd got a new boyfriend, thirdly, Bridge and I were never actually dating, we just pretended to so I could make a point. I made it, we 'broke up', and he is Syd's boyfriend! They are so cute together, I'm starting to get that warm, fuzzy feeling that I hate so much." Z made a face, and missed Sky's reaction.
She was so beautiful, sitting there on his bed. His hormones accelerated as she flopped back onto it, making herself comfortable. She gave him the information, and he had almost got his head around the first piece of information when she told him that she and Bridge had never really dated. He almost cheered, but managed to hold back until she had finished.
He immediately did so the second she unscrewed her face, which he had been memorising.
She laughed as he jumped up and ran to where she was lying, until he pulled her up and began spinning her around his tiny, tiny bedroom.
Then she giggled softly, so softly he almost didn't notice. As they neared his bed, her foot caught on the edge of the rug and she tripped, pushing Sky onto the bed before landing on top of him in a compromising position.
Sky, feeling guilty that he was enjoying their positions immensely, blushed a dark red. But he found his muscles were frozen, and one of his hands was still on her back, the other holding hers.
He blushed even darker when he realised her free hand was on his shoulder, preventing their faces from touching, but was slipping off his shoulder and off the edge of his bed.
Before that happened however, Sky decided to take a chance. He forced his head up, nearer hers, and kissed her. It was just a peck on the lips, but it startled her so much her arms gave away completely, while he found he could move freely again.
She collapsed on top of him, and rolled off of him. Then she turned his face towards her, and they kissed properly.
Out of breath, they parted.
"I love you." Sky whispered.
"I love you too." Z whispered back.
In the tiny bed, they hugged, and lay together in comfortable silence, until the alarm went off. Then they jumped up and headed to work, because what day at SPD would be complete without kicking monster butt?
