Kat couldn't believe her eyes. Or she wouldn't if she weren't watching what was taking place in front of her this very moment. No wonder Tommy had never taken heed of her every time she'd flirted with him. It made sense. And she'd stupidly thought that Tommy was just taking his time getting over Kimberly. But all this time, Tommy had already moved on - with Billy of all people. She watched as the two boys left, wanting to follow them but thinking better. The boys would tell them when they were ready, she figured.

Taking his hand, Billy led Tommy through the garage down the stairs to where his small lab/apartment was.

"Nice." Tommy noted, looking around while Billy locked the door behind them.

"I've been living down here since I was about thirteen." Billy told him.

"It's nice." Tommy replied.

"Thanks." Billy said, kicking off his shoes and collapsing backward on the bed. He felt the bed shift as Tommy joined him. "I'm giving up my power."

"What?" Tommy said, frowning. "Why? You were the one who wanted to be a ranger again."

"I know." Billy said softly, running a kiss down Tommy's neck. "But if you're going to lose your powers, I'd rather not have mine, either."

Tommy shivered as Billy's kiss sent shivers down his spine. "I don't want you to give up your power for me. At least think about what you are doing."

Billy nipped his ear. "I promise." he whispered. "Now shut up."

Tommy chuckled as Billy pulled him backward on the bed. "Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked as Billy pulled his shirt off him.

"Yes." Billy said. "Now are you going to talk all day or are you going to shut up?"

Tommy kissed him in response. "Answer your question?"

Laughing, Billy pulled his own shirt off and ran a trail of kisses down Tommy's chest. He'd never felt this good before, this free, but here with Tommy in his arms, in his bed, made him feel safe. He didn't want this to end. He made his way back up and once again captured Tommy's lips.

Tommy could hardly believe what was happening. He'd never known how good a kisser Billy was - then again, he'd never had romantic feelings towards the blonde haired boy until now. There was a lot about Billy that Tommy was still finding out.
