A/N: So I know it's been long and I apologize for that but I've had a lot going on. Forgive me. For this chapter, I am a little torn. I like Eric/Taylor but I also am open to the idea of Cole/Taylor, it just depends. For the sake of this chapter (and my previous Time Force chapter), it will be Eric/Taylor.

"You so like him!"

"I have told you before Alyssa, I don't!"

"I don't believe you." Emily catches faint snatches of the yellow and white Wild Force rangers and sensing something is going to happen, steers Jayden gently towards them. They continue to hear Taylor and Alyssa bicker as the other guys watch, knowing not to get in the middle.

"Why is it so hard to admit Taylor?" Alyssa asks, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear. "It's nothing to be ashamed about."

"She's worrying it will show she actually has a heart," Max teases. Taylor glares at him, narrowing her eyes. Max backs off and hides behind Danny who just smiles.

"Alyssa's right Taylor. You can admit it to us. The heart always knows what's right," Danny explains. He adjusts his glasses as Taylor sighs.

"Again with the whole 'follow your heart' thing," mutters Taylor. Even in her light yellow dress, she still seems a little stiff and strict.

"It works though," Cole breaks in. "You know that, you've seen it in action with the Wild Zords."

"But this and that are completely different things," Taylor argues.

"I'm sorry, what is the matter exactly?" Emily asks, feeling they've been missing out on something. Alyssa giggles while Taylor rolls her eyes. As Jayden shakes hands with all the Wild Force guys, Alyssa starts to explain.

"Taylor says she doesn't like Eric even though we all know that's a lie," she says, looking pointedly at the blonde.

"Oh yeah, the Time Force rangers were talking about that a little too," Emily comments. Taylor's eyes widen and she rounds on Emily.

"What did he say?"

"Oh so you care now?" Max asks but Taylor doesn't notice, too focused on Emily.

"Just that he was talking to you. And the others were surprised that you too could talk without arguing," Emily answers. Taylor breathes a sigh of relief.

"They actually get along quite well, for two people who are so opinioned," Danny offers up. "She and Cole were a little worse."

"It wasn't that bad," Cole objects, tightening his headband. He had been told by his teammates that it wasn't the wisest of decisions to wear it to a wedding but he decided to keep it on anyway. There's no reason to change yourself just for a few hours. "Just a misunderstanding is all."

"Whatever you say," Max says, smirking. "I think you just wanted Taylor's attention."

The former yellow ranger reaches out to smack Max's arm lightly as the faintest blush spills onto Cole's cheeks.

"If anyone wanted anyone's attention, it would be Merrick," Alyssa points out. "He can't go for an hour without at least mentioning Princess Shayla."

"Oh, the one in the flowly dress and flower crown?" Emily asks, remembering her. She had offered to help serve the wedding cake. Alyssa nods.

"Yeah, I'd like for you guys to meet her but I think she's a little busy."

"And Merrick is busy with following her," Max intervenes. "Doesn't surprise me, he's always been like that."

"Well he was her protector," Cole says. "It's only natural to continue it up till now."

"Protector?" Jayden looks puzzled. "She needs a protector? I mean, I consider myself Emily's protector but still."

"Really?" Emily looks up at her husband as he smiles. His smile is still her favorite smile. She's seen it so many times and it's still as breathtaking as the first. "How sweet of you." The two share a glance before Max coughs.

"Yeah, since she is a princess after all. It was way back when the Orgs first attacked," Taylor explains. "She's the protector of the earth anyway."

"Which reminds me, what kinds of flowers are these?" Danny asks suddenly. The rangers all look at each other.

"Um, what?" Emily has a confused expression on her face. "Flowers?"

"Yeah, flowers." Danny nods eagerly. "I'd really like to know what type. I mean, I have an idea what they are but if you could confirm it, that'd be great."

"He worked at a flower shop," Max whispers behind one hand. "He's kind of obsessed."

"That makes sense," Emily concedes. "Um, they are roses, larkspurs, and tulips."

"That's what I thought," Danny mumbles, nodding to himself. "Very nice choices, very nice."

"Thank you," Jayden says. "Emily wanted roses to match her dress of course." Emily giggles and twirls in her dress, sending the layers of tulle and chiffon in a circle around her.

"Please tell me they're fake flowers," Danny says. "Please."

"On my dress of course, "Emily responds. "But not in the vases or anything."

"I would hope not," Taylor sniffs. "That would defeat the purpose in a way." Alyssa nods.

"We need to take care of the environment anyhow," Cole breaks in. "That's one way of doing it, I suppose."

"Best way I've heard of." Max waves to Ronny and Rose who happen to be walking by at the moment. They both grin and wave back at him, finding him cute in a dorky way. Max seems proud of himself, smiling after them.

"Another good way is if you be quite and save us all the noise pollution," Taylor smirks. Max gasps in mock outrage.

"That was uncalled for Taylor!"

"I have a feeling this is going to escalate very quickly," Jayden remarks as Emily and Alyssa both try not to laugh at the blue and yellow rangers arguing.

"In any case, I had fun talking to you all," Emily says as she and Jayden take their leave, hearing the remains of the argument fade into the background.

A/N: I couldn't resist throwing in a little Cole/Taylor, if you must know. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it!
