Disclaimer: I do not own the Power Rangers
A/N: Sorry it took me so long to get back to this. I had this flurry of creative power, was working on my other stuff, and forgot about it. But, we're back.
Tommy had steered the wedding party into a small room to one side of the chapel, sending everyone else home. Wedding's postponed, he told them. Personal problems. Of course, everyone understood, and left quietly. In the little room, he made sure the door was shut and nodded at Billy, who had his hand firmly clamped over Adam's mouth. Billy moved his hand, "Are you nuts?" Adam demanded, "Aisha, what the hell is going on?"
Aisha was trying not to cry, "I'm sorry Adam," she said, "I don't know, it just slipped out."
"Just slipped? Just slipped? Aisha, what if I had said Tanya's name?"
"I'd have been relieved!" Aisha replied, tears starting down her cheeks. "At least then I wouldn't feel so bad. I love you, Adam, but I never got over Rocky and you knew that!"
"Then why did you agree to marry me?" Adam asked.
"Because," Aisha said, her hand dropping to her stomach, "I'm pregnant!" She burst into tears as everyone stared at her.
Kim moved, she produced a handkerchief from somewhere and knelt before Aisha, gathering her friend close. From the look on Adam's face, he hadn't even expected that. Tommy noted that Rocky looked devastated. Tanya looked confused and sympathetic, but then, she hadn't been as close to everyone else since her career had taken off, not since Adam had left, actually. Tommy felt sorry for her, Adam had been her first Ranger friend, and when they'd taken the step to dating, he'd been happy for them. Like everyone else, he'd not suspected trouble between Adam and Tanya until Adam had left her, showing up at Tommy's apartment in desperate need of alcohol. Tommy had let him in, and unlocked Hailey's secret liquor stash, pouring two hundred dollars of alcohol into Adam to help him talk about it. He winced slightly; he still owed Hailey for that.
Tommy turned back to the present, where Adam was trying to digest Aisha's words, while Kim comforted her. He cleared his throat, "All right, Kim, take Aisha back to the girls' room and get her into her street clothes. Billy, get Adam changed and drag his ass back to the hotel. Don't let him stop in the bar. Rocky, Tanya, Kat, Jason, we need to clean up here and contact the hotel about postponing the reception. Justin, no, wait, switch that, Justin stay and help. Jason, get the Dino Teens back to Kira's place. Keep them there. I made thirty kinds of promises to keep them out of trouble, so help me. Once Aisha's calmed down, Kim, get her talking. Billy, do the same for Adam. I suggest none of us drink. We'll figure this out as soon as we're all in real clothes."
Once everything had been taken care of, and payments made to those who demanded them, Tommy got Rocky and Tanya in his room. "All right you two," he said, "I think we've got a can of worms bigger than we wanted. Part of what's going to happen is going to be in your hands. Especially you, Rocky; I'm not saying you should jump in with proclamations of love, but you should really think about where you stand. If they don't get married, you both are going to be part of it. I know you aren't the cause directly, but indirectly you played a part. I suggest you both stay away from Adam and Aisha until they've made their choices, but know your answers if they come to you. Don't turn them away, but don't seek them out."
Rocky shifted, "Tommy, I already know where I stand on this. If Aisha wants me back, I'm hers. Leaving Angel Grove qualifies as the stupidest thing I've ever done. Even that Mondo thing back then pales in comparison I think. If Aisha and Adam stay together, I'll figure out what to do. I screwed up; I'm not going to hope for a second chance."
Tanya nodded, "I've had time, years, to think about what happened with Adam and me. It was my fault, because Adam told me how he felt, and I didn't stop it. I wanted the fame, and I forgot my friends. I don't know where we're going to end up, but I'd like to be able to talk to Adam again."
Tommy smiled, "Thank you. Now for step two, get the two of them to make up their own minds. Tanya, the press…"
"They won't get anything from me, that's for sure," Tanya replied, "I don't want this to become a media circus because it's Adam."
"Thank you, again," Tommy replied. He paused to clasp Rocky's hand and give Tanya a hug, "I'm going to go check on Kim, and Billy. Then I'm going to go find the kids."
"Tommy," Rocky said, "on a side note, the Power Ranger's Chapel of Love?"
"Never happened," Tommy said flatly, stepping out of his room.
