Here's the new chapter!


"Oh," said Aisha as tears filled her eyes. "I guess that's good, right?" Trini immediately pulled Aisha into her arms and rubbed her back. "I mean, that works, right? It works with our plans."

"I'm sorry, honey," Trini said, hugging Aisha.

"It's just...I thought...I don't know what I thought." Aisha used a tissue to stop tears from falling from her eyes. "I guess I started imagining how things would or could be or whatever. I mean...this is good, right. This is good." She searched Trini's eyes for encouragement, but Trini didn't say anything. "Yeah, this...this...I mean, Rocky even said that he wants to wait a bit, so that's fine, right?" Another wave of tears filled her eyes and this time, she didn't even try to stop the tears from falling. "I mean...I just started thinking about babies and kids and all..." Trini used a tissue to wipe Aisha's eyes.

"Then I guess it's a good thing that you're having one!" Kim exclaimed with a grin, holding up the pregnancy test.

"WHAT?" Aisha and Trini looked at Kim in shock and surprise.

Kim nodded and held out the pregnancy test. "Yeah, it's positive. You're having a baby!"

"But you said-" started Trini, still hugging Aisha.

"Yeah, I lied!" interrupted Kim with a smile. "You and Rocky are going to have a baby!" she exclaimed again. "A baby!" she repeated. Kim threw her arms around Trini and Aisha. She showed them the pregnancy test.

"It is positive!" exclaimed Trini. They squealed.

"That's what I said!" exclaimed Kim.

"Please, Kim," replied Trini. "You know I had to make sure, especially after that stunt that you just pulled."

"But 'Sha said she wasn't sure and then she was sure and that's a good thing since she's actually having one."

Aisha smiled. "I love you guys!" She hugged the two of them with all of her might. "And, whichever way I found out...I still love both of you."

"But you're not going to be the one looking at the test with me," said Trini. They laughed.

"So, how are you going to tell Rock?" asked Kim.

Aisha shrugged. "I don't want to think about that right now. It's still your night, Kim. This is just one thing that I could lift off my chest, right? Let's just enjoy the rest of the night." She looked at her watch. "Besides, it's almost time to cut the cake. And that means speech time, maid of honor."

"Aw, shucks," said Trini, grinning. "I was hoping she had forgotten."

The three of them gave each other a big group hug before walking out of the bathroom together.


"Oh, there they are," Jason said, pointing to Kim, Trini, and Aisha walking out of the bathroom. "Ladies going to the bathroom together."

He, Tommy, Rocky, and Adam started laughing as Amy rolled her eyes at them. "Typical guys," she said.

"Ladies and gentlemen," announced Ernie. "Can I direct your attention to the dance floor, please? And Kim, Tommy, Jason, and Trini, would you come up here? Let's gather around for the speeches and the cake-cutting."

The dance floor cleared and the musicians stopped playing.

Amy, Adam, and Rocky laughed at the sight of Aisha directing everyone on where to go. "Just wait until you guys see the cake!" exclaimed Rocky. "Aisha let me pick it out!"

"If she even kept the same cake."

A couple of servers wheeled out a cake. "Hah!" boasted Rocky, pointing to the cake. "My girl kept the cake that I picked out!"

"Wow, Rocky," said Amy. "I'm impressed. That's a beautiful cake."

Rocky smiled, looking at the cake, fondly. "I wanted to pay her back for that cake she got me for my birthday."

"Hey, that was a joint effort between me and Kim."

Rocky looked between him and Amy. "Well, then at your wedding, I'll pay you back for yours." Adam rolled his eyes.

"Well, does it taste as good as it looks?" asked Amy, ignoring Rocky's obvious teasing.

"Of course it does! It's red velvet, Kim's favorite, with cream cheese frosting and it is just great. I had to taste at least 3 or 4 slices before I decided on it."

"Oh, you had to?"

"Of course I had to. Kim and Tommy deserve the best."

"Where were they during this, anyway?" asked Adam.

Rocky shrugged as he crossed his arms. "Who knows. All I know is that they both couldn't make it, so 'Sha brought me along."

"Did you pick out the food, too?" asked Amy.

Rocky nodded. "Uh. Of course I did! I wasn't going to leave that to the amateurs-my wife!" he loudly whispered at the end.

"Wow. Food was good, too. And you know how wedding food's usually gross and stuff. Or not exactly gross, but not exactly out-of-this-world. But man, that dinner was awesome!"

Adam put his arm around Amy and pulled her close. "Stop feeding his ego."

Amy laughed and leaned into Adam. She raised a hand to give Rocky a high five. "Well, good job, anyway, buddy." She looked back at the cake and Kim and Tommy and smiled.'

The cake was a four-tiered square cake, covered in the white cream cheese frosting, with a deep crimson trim. A short strip of black fondant covered the bases of the top three tiers. On the third tier, white musical notes were drawn into the black fondant, while the second tier contained various scientific formulas. The top tier showed outlines of a crane and a falcon flying together. At the top of the cake, instead of the customary bride and groom piece, two replica Power Coins of the ones given to them from Mayari. On the bottom tier, the words "Unlimited. Together, we're unlimited. Just you & I, defying gravity." were written in black icing.

Kim took a step back and looked around after she took in the cake. She saw Rocky standing with Amy and Adam and grinned at him, blowing him a kiss. He nodded in acknowledgment and waved his hand.

"Wow," said Tommy. "The cake looks great, 'Sha."

"You could thank Rocky. I had nothing to do with this, other than riding with him to and from the bakery."

Tommy laughed and looked around for Rocky. When he found Rocky, Tommy raised his glass at him before setting it down on the table. "Okay, you ready, Beautiful?"

"Tommy, if any of that cake gets on my face, you're dead!"

Tommy laughed as he raised the knife to the top tier after Kim took off the replica Power Coins. She put her hands over him and the two of them carefully sliced a piece of cake. Kim laughed as she tried to maneuver her arm around Tommy's to feed each other cake. They clinked glasses and entwined their arms to drink their champagne. The sounds of clinking glass echoed throughout the reception hall and again, Kim and Tommy leaned into one another to kiss. Catcalls and cheers were heard throughout the hall.

"What made you choose the cake?" Amy asked Rocky.

"Oh...we went to the bakery and they kept telling us what they can do and 'Sha was getting frustrated because she like all of it and I was bored, waiting for them to bring out the samples. So then I started drawing my own cake on a napkin and that's what came out. Except mine had a lot more Phantom overtones. I thought it would be good to put a little bit of both of them in the cake and something about them being rangers since it was such a big part of them. Since it still is a big part of them."

"And defying gravity?"

Rocky shrugged. "I was looking for something from Rent that they could put on the cake since that's Kim's favorite musical. So then, I was going to put something from The Phantom...you know, 'share with me one love, one lifetime," Rocky sang those words off-tune. Amy and Adam both rolled their eyes. "But, you know...that's my song. So I thought about Wicked and how they loved that when they visited New York, so Defying Gravity came up." Rocky smiled to himself while Amy and Adam looked at each other in surprise.

"Always surprising, Rock," said Adam. "After all these years, always surprising." Amy smiled, putting her arm through Adam's.

"And now, let's have the best man and maid of honor come up here to deliver their speeches," said Ernie. He waited until Jason and Trini were standing on the stage before handing the microphone over to Trini.

"Oh, me first, huh, Ernie?" She laughed a bit, trying to settle her nerves. She quickly glanced around the room before settling her gaze on Tommy and Kim, who were standing in front of her. Tommy had his arms around Kim and the two of them were grinning up at Trini. She returned their smile before she proceeded with her speech. "I've known Kim since...it seems like forever. She was and always will be my best friend. Kim was one of the first friends I have ever had in my life. And she just has the biggest heart of anyone that I know." Trini paused to clear her throat and wipe away a few tears. She looked directly at Kim. "Oh my gosh, we're growing up! I can still remember when we were in the playground, playing in the sand while the boys were off chasing frogs. And now look at us, old and married!"

"Hey!" Jason's mom called out.

Everyone laughed as Trini widened her eyes and mouthed "No offense" to her mother-in-law. She looked back at Kim. "You always knew who you were and I always admired you for that. I just want to tell a couple of stories...about Kim and Tommy. When we were in high school, you never really saw one without the other. Unless it was Tommy running late for something, then you'd have Kim there on time." She paused as everyone laughed. "But, one particular incident sticks out in my mind. This was when I knew that Kim and Tommy were meant for each other and would always, always be there for each other...to make each other happy and to help each other out. And even though they went down a long, long road to reach where they are today...it's been a great, a fantastic ride to watch the two of you fall in love with each other." She paused again. "Now, as all of you know, Kim is my best friend. From when we were younger, we were like sisters. We still are. And you know, you never let anything come to harm against your family or the ones you care about. So, when we were in high school, Kim was actually put in charge of making a float for a parade. I don't really remember the exact details about it or whatever, but I do remember Kim putting her heart and soul into this parade." She looked around the room carefully, pausing for a long time. "Well, since everyone in this room knows who the Power Rangers were and who their enemies were, I think it's safe to say that Kim's float was completely destroyed by putties. She created and made the most amazing float and the putties came and destroyed. There was nothing left of the flowers from float, only petals to make potpourri."

"We get it, Tri!" said Kim, grinning.

"Shh, my speech!" Trini grinned in return. "Well, where was I? Oh, so, the putties destroyed the float and Kim was really bummed out. And then we had to go and fight a monster."

"Spit flower!" called out Zack.

Trini pointed to him. "Yes, that's correct, but it's still my speech!" Everyone laughed. "Anyways, so we went and fought the monster. Kim, incidentally, was the one who also saved us this day. And when we were back at the Youth Center later that day, Ernie had the parade going on. Kim refused to watch it since she didn't want to be reminded of what she could've done and what happened. But, as it goes, we-or I should say, Tommy forced Kim to watch the parade and she did. And guess what she saw." Trini paused for dramatic effect and grinned. "Her float-exactly the way she created it in the parade. Tommy spent hours and even recruited Alpha to help him with it. He asked us to help also, but we didn't do much, Tommy did the bulk of the work. And after seeing what he did for my best friend, my sister, I knew that there was something different about him. I knew that he would be the one to do nothing but make her happy. And even though you two have been through a long road in getting here, getting to this night, I am so happy that you two have finally found true and complete happiness. This is just the beginning. Kim, I know you've found your soul mate, your lobster. And I know that he will always take care of you." Trini stopped and smiled at Kim, tears filling her eyes. "And Tommy, you are the only one that I would ever trust with Kim. I love the both of you so much and I wish you all the happiness in the world." She raised her glass. "To Kim and Tommy."

Everyone followed Kim and repeated "To Kim and Tommy." Trini set down her glass and walked over to Kim and Tommy, giving them both a tight hug. She wiped her eyes and walked off the dance floor, standing with Rocky, Adam, and Amy.

Jason took the microphone and put in the stand. Everyone was silent, waiting for him to begin. He readjusted his jacket, unbuttoned and re-buttoned his vest and cleared his throat, before looking up at Kim and Tommy. He reached for the microphone and opened his mouth to speak.

"I don't really know where to start. I mean, Kim and Tommy are two of my closest friends. I've known Kim since...forever, it seems, and Tommy...he's my brother." He smiled. "But...I'll talk about Tommy. After all," Jason shrugged, "I guess I am his best man, right?" He grinned. "And don't worry, I'm not going to make a big, long speech like my wife did."

"Hey!"

Jason laughed before continuing. "Tommy came to Angel Grove a long time ago and we met because of a tournament that ended in a draw between us. I'm happy to say that we've never had a rematch after that because I think his strength grows with every color he takes on."

Tommy rolled his as everyone laughed out loud.

"But, when we met, we became fast friends. And even though there were...difficulties in maintaining that friendship at the beginning...we became friends, we were as close as brothers. And Tommy, as confident as he is, there's a lot going on in there." Jason grinned. "He was the only one that I could trust to lead the team and he has always been the most loyal, the most respectful, and the best person I know. I know that the two of you can only make each other happy. Me, Trini, all of us...you both know that we are always here for you, both of you. And Tommy, I know Kim's crazy."

"Hey!"

"In a good way, Kim!" Kim rolled her eyes. "But Tommy, I'm glad and very happy that you are willing to take on all that crazy." Tommy smiled and hugged Kim closer to him, kissing her on the cheek. Jason raised his glass. "Again, to Kim and Tommy. May you have happiness in everything you do. Even when things get bad, they will always get better. I love you guys!"

Again, everyone raised their glasses and said, "To Kim and Tommy," before taking a sip of their own glasses. Jason put the microphone back on the stand before joining Kim and Tommy on the dance floor. He gave them both a hug before joining Trini and his friends. Aisha gestured to the servers to start handing out the cake that they cut during the speeches. She sidled up next to Kim and Tommy and directed them to each table to take pictures.


About 40 minutes later, Aisha jumped on the microphone. Beyonce's song "Single Ladies" came over the speakers. She started laughing into the microphone. "I'm sure you all know what that means! All of you single ladies out there, come out on the dance floor so Kim can toss her bouquet!" She looked around the room and saw everyone looking at warily. "COME ON! Amy!" Amy gave Aisha a look. Aisha returned the same look to her before gazing around the room, calling people out. "Kira! Hayley! COME ON! Kat!"

Reluctantly, a number of ladies joined Kim on the dance floor, including Hayley and Kira. Trini nudged Amy and shoved her toward the dance floor. Amy immediately let go off her weight and Trini struggled against her dead weight. "Come on, Amy! It's tradition! I'd go if I could. But I'm married." Amy just shook her head before standing up again.

"No way am I going out there."

"Why not?" asked Trini.

Amy just shook her head. "A bunch of women fighting over a bouquet of flowers? Not my cup of tea." Trini laughed as the two of them watched Kim throw the bouquet over her head. She raised her bouquet over her head and waved it around before Aisha started counting down through the microphone.

"1...2...3..."

Kim threw the bouquet over her shoulder much harder than expected and it flew over the outstretched arms of all the ladies on the dance floor, landing squarely in Amy's hands. Amy looked down at the flowers in her hands as Trini started laughing. Kim ran over and gave Amy a big hug. She looked over and winked at Adam.

"Might I say," started Trini. "HAH!"

Amy rolled her eyes. "Shut up!"

"All right, now it's time for all the single men!"

Kim ran back out to the dance floor and sat in a chair in the middle of the dance floor. Rocky pushed Adam toward the dance floor.

"No," said Adam.

"Come on," replied Rocky. "Just because you're standing here doesn't mean that you can't catch the garter." He gestured to Amy. "One down. One to go."

"Oh, shut up, Rocky."

"Oh, come on, Adam," said Zack. "It'll be fun. Let's just go out there and stand in the crowd. If anything, we could shove around the guys on there."

Adam rolled his eyes and let Zack lead him to the dance floor. He stood amongst Conner, Trent, and Wes. Adam laughed to himself when he saw Tommy's nephews on the dance floor, getting ready to catch the bouquet. They all watched as Tommy pulled off Kim's garter and waved it around his finger before turning around. He waited for Aisha to count down in the microphone and on three, Tommy flung the garter behind his head. True to his word, instead of trying to go after the garter, Zack just started shoving people. Adam laughed, watching Tommy's nephews jump up to reach for the garter. But since they were so much smaller than all the other guys, they got lost in the midst. The garter jumped around for a bit, before settling in Billy's drink.

He glanced down, not expecting to see the garter and gave everyone a distraught look. Everyone started laughing at Billy's expression on his face. "I wasn't even trying," he protested. "You should do it again, Tommy."

Amy shook her head. "If Kim doesn't throw this again, then he doesn't get to throw again."

"Come on, guys!" Kim grabbed Amy and Billy and pulled them toward Tommy on the dance floor to take a picture. The music started up again and some people stayed on the dance floor, starting to dance.

Adam and Zack were laughing as they headed back to their table to join Rocky, Jason, and Trini.

"Have fun, Zack?" Jason asked with a grin.

"Always, Jason!"

"I was attacked by football players!"

Adam, Zack, Rocky, Jason, and Trini laughed at the statement and looked around for who said it. Tommy's nephews were walking next to them and one of them was rubbing his head. They all immediately started laughing again.

"Kids say the darndest things!" laughed Trini.

Everyone laughed. "Last week, David, in my 8-10-year-old class, was asking Brandon for his mom's email address," said Rocky. Jason started laughing, recognizing the story. "We were finishing up and the kids were all putting on their shoes and stuff."

"And David was like, 'Can you ask your mom to text my mom? Then we'll get your mom's email address, too, so we could send you the evite to my birthday party'," said Jason.

"And Brandon was like, 'I'll ask my mom to text your mom, but I don't know her email address'," continued Rocky.

"And David said, 'Okay, I'm just not allowed to pass out invitations since I'm green now." And then he held up his lunch box and said it was eco-friendly!"

They all laughed again. "Kids are great," said Rocky. "They're the best form of entertainment out there."

"Oh, you think so, Rock?" said Trini.

Rocky nodded. "Of course."

Trini smiled to herself, taking in this piece of information. She knew that Aisha was nervous about telling Rocky, but she also knew that the two of them were perfect for each other and always supported each other. She also knew that Rocky may not feel like he want kids right now, but she knew that once Aisha tells him that they are going to be having a baby, he'll be happy. He just has to be eased into it.
