Phony Bologna 4

Jayden knew something was wrong with Wesley.

His playful childhood friend was staying in bed, not talking to a soul and staring at the ceiling with big, emotionless eyes. About three, the younger male confronted his friend.

"What's wrong?" he asked him.

"Nothing," Wesley fibbed, "just…tired."

Jayden didn't believe that for a second. But instead of pressing, he went out for afternoon training. Emily seemed really worried about him as well. As she pressed against Jayden, her hazels shown her mind was elsewhere. Kylie seemed even more full of life than ever. She was sparring with endless power, and she was helping everybody with everything.

"You seem in a good mood," Antonio commented.

"I know I am!" she bubbled, "the most wonderful thing happened to me last night!"

"What?" Mia inquired.

Unable to hold it back any longer, the Black Ranger squealed, "I totally kissed Wesley!"

"What?" the two yelled.

"And then he kissed me!" she was flushed with excitement.

The two were shocked. They knew Wesley hadn't exactly been open to her at first, but now he was kissing her? That was quite a step up.

"I need to talk to him," Antonio went into Jayden and Wesley's room, "aimgo, what in the world happened with you and Kylie?"

"I don't know!" the Silver Ranger finally spoke, "it was just she kissed me and I got lost in those beautiful eyes…it just happened! When we pulled away, she wrapped her arms around my neck and we danced for a while. She fell asleep in my arms, so I laid her in her bed and fell asleep in my own."

"Wow," the Gold Ranger whistled, "you must really like her."

"But that feeling is gone whenever I'm not touching her," he sighed, "it's just so weird. Like a spell is over me."

"That spell," Antonio smiled, "is a little thing I like to call love."

Sighing, the brown haired older teen flopped back onto his bed. Antonio just didn't understand this oddness. It just came so sudden…

"I can tell you need to think," the younger teen smiled weakly, "I'll leave you alone with your love."

The male groaned when his friend was gone. Nobody could understand this mix of emotions. Was he losing it?

"Wesley?" a voice softly said from behind the closed door.

"Wesley is unavailable at this moment," he spoke from under his pillow, "please leave a message after the beep. Beep."

"Come on!" the voice begged, "let me in! I just want to talk!"

"Fine," he groaned, sitting up. A blonde haired, hazel eyed little girl walked in. Emily.

"I heard about you and Kylie," she began.

"You just wouldn't understand," he grumbled.

"Probably not," she agreed, "but I understand Kylie is seriously crushing on you."

"I know," he sighed, "I'm losing it! I'm supposed to hate her!"

"You aren't supposed to feel anything," Emily shook her curls, "it's just what your heart wants."

"I guess," he sighed, "I just want to be alone with my scrambled thoughts."

"I understand," she nodded slowly, "I'll just leave you be. But I know you're going to figure it out."

She was suddenly gone. Sighing loudly, the Silver Ranger watched his team train. Jayden was waiting, leaning against his practice sword. When Emily came out, he greeted her and she smiled brightly. The two were soon sparring, gleams of effort in their eyes.

Suddenly, Jayden twisted her sword. The girl stumbled and fell back, sword clattering. Quick on his own feet, the Red Ranger caught her. She smiled up at him, and he grinned back with love. They were a couple that was totally meant to be. It was natural.

His ice blue eyes went over to Kevin and Mia. The two formal, big siblings were clashing with their swords, spinning in a game of outwitting. Soon, Mia had Kevin on the ground.

"I clearly need," Kevin grunted as she helped him up, "more practice."

"You're doing fine, Kev," she smiled, "now, let's go!" The two smiled before their training swords clashed.

They were a perfect match. Kevin admired her for her motherly instinct and passion, and she wanted to be just like him for his discipline and master over symbol power. His eyes lingered on over to Antonio and Mike.

Antonio had strong feelings for Emily. But now he had even stronger feelings toward her big sister, now healed, Serena. (See A day of Destiny and Waiting for You.) Mike was in love with a girl named Lily, who was a non ranger, but his match. (See We have to do what now?)

Wesley didn't have a love yet. But Kylie? Could she really be the one?

No, he thought, shaking his head, no way. No how.

Those feelings of suspicion were there. But when he touched her, they melted and made his heart beat ten times faster. Letting out a groan, he let his head hit the wall.

"Wesley?" Kylie's voice was followed by a knock at his door, "are you in there?"

Knowing he couldn't shake her, he opened up the door. She was all dressed in her silver Samurai training outfit, black belt on her waist and lining her like the others'. Her midnight hair was in a ponytail, making her lime eyes look prettier. He leaned against the doorway, giving her the silence to speak.

"Want to sparr?" she asked him.

"Um…I'll pass," he started to shut the door, desperate to get her away and out of his head.

"Please?" she gazed at him with those big eyes, touching his skin.

He felt electricity radiate through him. Feeling his legs go jelly, he nodded. Smiling, she pulled him along outside.

"You're pretty good," he commented when she knocked him into a bush.

"Thanks," she grinned, "you too." She reached out, and when he took her hand, he felt sparks flying like the fourth of July.

Even when she let go, he felt passion toward the girl. Maybe, just maybe, he could really love her…
