Disclaimer: I own all of this…all of it! (Now if you actually believed that, you need to take a nice healthy dose of sarcasm…Sarcasm! Does the gulitability good!)

Authors note: I just want to say thanks to all of you who have reviewed. It means a lot to me that you guys are taking the time to read all of it and review. It means even more that all of you (even you who don't like the pairing) are enjoying it. Now on a different note, I just want to point out that this story does not coincide with my previous story, secret, and it take place seven years after the mission has ended.

Youth

The sound of laughter could be heard in the wind that blew through the tops of the trees. Many people found the sound of kids playing loudly, to the point of annoying, even obnoxious, but to two people, it was a miracle. The couple walked through the park with their hands clasped, complementing each other perfectly, just as gold and silver. At this particular moment, they seemed like all the couples that strolled through the parks in movies; perfect. The two walked in silence, just enjoying each others company as they walked through the park. After crossing the calm, stone bridge, the two found themselves in front of a noise playground, completely consumed by children of all ages. With out uttering a word, they both sat down on a bench in front of the playground, rather than a more quiet location, far from the kids. Tyzonn looked over towards Ronny who was staring at the occupied children with a siren smile.

"Sometimes, I wish I could be a kid again." The brunette confessed while still staring at the children's carefree behaviors.

"And why is that?" Tyzonn questioned as he too stared in fascination.

"The question should be, why wouldn't you want to be a kid again. I mean, look at them." Ronny gestured towards them with her free hand. "They are so carefree. They have nothing to worry about except for if they will get to eat at McDonalds later and avoiding the dreadful cooties from the opposite sex. With all the drama and promiscuity that goes along with being an adult, I would kill for that lifestyle."

"They don't call it the innocence of youth for nothing." The blonde pondered as he ran his thumb over her knuckles.

"We can really learn a lot from kids too." She pondered as she watched the game of red rover begin.

"Do tell." He prodded, intently listening to her thoughts.

"If you look at today's society, all you see is selfish slobs who only care about themselves and the almighty dollar. Not too many people care about what's really important in life, like caring for one another, and just taking five seconds to offer a random person on the street a hello and simple smile. Kids, however, know what's truly important. They don't judge others as quickly as our corrupt world does either. Two kids can be complete strangers one minute, and then they're best friends five minutes later, having the time of their lives."

"That's very true. Kids do have that pure hearts that most adults lack. I guess I'm pretty jealous of them and their pure spirit. If you look at most kids, they usually go out of their way to help others. However, sadly, somewhere along the line of maturity, they loose that purity, and they become, well, corrupted by our selfish and ungrateful world."

"True, but not everyone looses their innocence, their…purity. You didn't" Ronny explained leaning into Tyzonn's arm and resting her head on his shoulder.

"And neither did you. You kept your purity quiet well. After all, you saved the world, on more than one occasion." He then relaxed his head on hers, noticing that many of the kids were leaving their fun and games to head home. "And that's what I love most about you."

"What? Because I saved the world?" She asked, lifting her head slightly, in a teasing matter.

"Yea, why else?" For that comment, he received a slight punch on the arm. Beginning to laugh, he corrected himself before she got any "madder". "I'm just teasing. I fell for you because of your innocence and heart of gold."

"You got that right." She proudly remarked with a slight grin of satisfaction on her face. She then leaned in to place a light feathery kiss on his lips, as if to reward him for his compliment.

"Ewww!" Their brief moment of peace was interrupted by a small, three year old child that stood before the couple. "That's gross!" He stated. Tyzonn unwrapped his hand from Ronny's and grabbed the little boy and lifted him up into the air.

"Oh, you think that's gross do you?" He asked in a goofy, fake angry, yet playful voice. The young boy began to squeal in excitement as he was swung around in circles in the air, then placed safely onto his father's hip. "So, where are your latest victims?" Ty asked his son. And almost as if on que, Rose and Mack came walking up to their close friends, with two more children. Mack was holding a young girl by the hand that had large brown eyes, and long dark black hair. Rose, however, was holding an infant, no older than six months old in her arms. The baby girl had light brown hair and light grey eyes. As they approached Ronny, Tyzonn, and Caleb, Ronny stood up to accept her baby girl.

"And how were they?" Ronny asked after Rose placed baby Alaina in her mother's arms.

"Perfect angels, as always." Rose responded while picking up her own two year old daughter.

"I wish" Tyzonn muttered slightly but then continued to thank her close friends. "Thanks again for watching them. It was nice to be able to just spend time with each other, especially after the whole pre-mature birth and all."

"No problem, anytime Ty." Mack welcomed back. "So we'll see you tomorrow then."

"Yes, definitely!" Ronny agreed to her close friends. "Until then. Now what do you say to them Caleb.

"Thank you Uncle Mack and Aunt Rose!" piped Caleb as he eagerly waved good-bye. The two couples waved good-bye to each other and began to walk home. "Mommy, I think Lanny has cooties." Caleb began to explain. Tyzonn and Ronny just let out a small chuckle as they reminisced on their previous conversation.

"Oh the troubles of childhood." Ronny pouted jokingly.

"How I wish those were my only problems." Tyzonn complained back with a smile, pondering over the mysteries of children.

"Just think, we've learned this much after three yeas from just Caleb. We still have 18 more years and another one to learn from yet." The blonde man suddenly remembered.

"Great." She sarcastically replied. "Hopefully they stay as innocent as they are right now. Maybe then I can get through the teenage years. Hopefully they don't turn out anything like I did when I was a teenager."

"First of all, I don't think you could have been that bad-"

"You would be surprised."

"I doubt it, but however, the youth are always innocent, until society gets a hold of them."

"Don't remind me. I'll just have to lock them in a closet until they are thirty…" She sarcastically replied. Tyzonn just smiled and lightly shoved his shoulder into hers.

"Mommy, Daddy, what are you talking about? Caleb interrupted. This just made his parents laugh as they were reminded yet again of the innocence of the youth.

Authors note: Now, I would like to apologize for the delay. I have been monstously busy and my series of migrains are not helping the matter much. Also, my writters block has been set to on, so I'm having troubles comming up with an original story lately. Once again, the migrains arn't helping any. This story (When I actually did have some creativity) actually kind of meant more than just the small romance that took place between Ronny and Tyzonn. I was reading the bible (big sprise there) and it dawned upon me how innocent the youth of today are compared to the corrupt adults of today's society. (I also owe my inspiration to politics for being such jerks about everything and my stupid town's ignorance to our school's needs and their refusal to vote yes so we don't die of cancer due to the afesis in our celings or the black mold. Or die from the school falling on top of us because our foundation is crumbling...ok I'll stop now because all of you probably don't care about my schools leavy, which today is our last chance for state money if it passes today, and the many problems of it.) Ok, now back to my point, I just wanted to represent the innocents of youth more through this challenge than anything else. Along with Ronny and Tyzonn of course! Thanks again to all my readers and reviewers! Hopefully I'll get some inspiration soon!
