Chapter 29
"Hey Kim wake-up." Tommy said as he lower the tray onto the bed.
She had not had a good night. He knew because she would scream out in fear. He had never heard that scream from her before. He thought that he would make her breakfast and hopefully she would tell him what had her so sacred.
"What? Tommy, what is this?" She asked as she saw the tray piled with eggs, toast, muffins, and two kinds of juice. She smiled at him and knew that she had the nightmares again. She hoped that since she was beside Tommy that they would stop but she guessed they didn't. She knew that by Tommy bringing food to her in bed he wanted to know.
"I made you breakfast. No one else is up yet so I had not problem sneaking it in here and I think that Aisha and Rocky took your bedroom. I didn't see them on their air mattresses. Oh and yes I want to know what you were dreaming about." He stated as he settled back into bed beside her. He had seen her expression when she saw the tray. He didn't want her to hide because she was afraid.
"Tommy, I'm not sure that I can." She said at his frown. She knew that he would fight her on this.
"Kim, I want to know. Don't make me pull rank on you. Remember you are a ranger again." He said as he watched her eat some of the eggs. He was glad that she was at least eating he just wanted to help her.
"Fine. The dreams change a little each time. I'm back in Angel Grove and everyone is still there. Apparently, no one ever left. We became ranges but we couldn't save you. You are the Evil Green Ranger still. You try to destroy us at every turn. The only problem is I can't see that side of you. I want to be around you all the time. The dream ends with you holding me captive and the others sacrificing themselves for me. You are then destroyed by Zedd and I am made his queen." She said as she leaned into him.
She was shaking uncontrollably now. She couldn't get the picture of her and Zedd getting married out of her mind. Before she decided to come and visit, she had at least one of these nightmares every night sometimes she had it several times a night. She even had to call in one day because she didn't get enough sleep.
It was one reason that she had come. She hoped that being around her friends that she wouldn't have to nightmare but then she became a ranger again. She sat in silence for a while then leaned back and looked at Tommy's face. He had tears in his eyes and she knew that it was an old fear about still being the Evil Green Ranger. She also knew that it hurt him that she dreamed about him still being the Evil Green Ranger. She wiped his tears away as he looked at her.
"Kim, I'm sorry. I'm not that Ranger anymore. I wish that you didn't have these nightmares." He said as he leaned away from her. He wanted some space so that he could think. He needed to know why she had these nightmares about him.
"No, you're right Tommy. You are not that Ranger anymore. You are ten times better. I think that these nightmares were driving me closer to you. It was one reason I came here. I needed to see you again. I had decided on the ride to your house that day that I would forgive you and have you forgive me for everything. I wanted you back in my life more than the occasional phone call or email. These past months have been great. We talked every day until we had that fight and I think that we didn't want anyone else in each other's life. I've missed you more than you can ever know." She said as she took his hands in hers. She wanted to show him how much he still meant to her.
"I guess in a way I'm glad that you had these nightmares. They brought you back to me and yea these past months have been great. I loved that we had some of our relationship back. We talked about everything like we used. I liked knowing that you had a cold or that you were eating steak for diner. It made me think that you were down the road instead of across the country. And I've missed you more than you can ever know. Please stay." He pleaded with her.
He needed her back in his live full time. He hoped that she wanted it too. He leaned down and kissed her. He took his time to plead his case with his lips. She gave her answer in the kiss as well and he was happy. He moved the tray onto the table beside his bed. He wrapped his arms around her as they settled between the sheets.

"Trini you okay?" Jason asked his wife as she jumped from the bed to reach the bedroom just in time. He heard retching sounds coming from the bathroom. He wondered how long this had been going on.
"I'll be fine, Jason. This will pass in like five minutes." She said as she leaned back against the wall. She was tired of waking up sick. She knew that this should only last for a few more weeks. She looked up and found her husband standing in the doorway.
"How long?" He asked as he settled down beside her. He wrapped his arms around her and felt her lean into his side. He started rubbing her arms to relax her.
"A few weeks. It was the reason I finally went to the doctor. I had called Kim and she suggested that I might be pregnant. I didn't want you to worry about me so I made sure to wake-up earlier than you did every morning. The doctor said that it is common the first three months. I have a few more weeks to go." She said as she relaxed in his arms.
She was not as tired as she normally was. She guessed that her secret had worn her out physically. She was happy that she had finally told him.
"Trini, I wish that you had told me earlier. I could have helped you through this but I'm glad that you are alright. Do you know what we are having?" He asked as he stretched out his legs. He couldn't believe that he was sitting with his wife in the bathroom floor.
"No, silly that is a several weeks away. What do you want?" She asked him and she leaned away so she could see his face.
"I don't care. I just want the baby to be happy as well as you. I can't lose you. You know that right?" He asked as he felt her reach up and cupped his cheek. He looked at her and saw the tears in her eyes. He knew that they were happy tears.
"I know that and I love you, Jason." She said as she kissed him.
She leaned back and started to stand. She reached down her hand and watched him stand and grabbed her hand. They walked out of the bathroom hand-in-hand. He then spun her around and kissed her soundly on the lips. She was so surprised that it took her a minute to respond. She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned into him. They were broke apart when Rocky beat on the door and yelled at them. They looked at each other and smiled then got together their clothes to change.

"Rocky, leave them alone." Aisha said as she put on her shirt and jeans.
She was trying to stop him from rushing in on Trini and Jason. He only wanted to bug Jason but he was not taking into the fact that Trini was in that room too. She was trying to convince him that it was not a good idea to miss with that tiger. She watched as he pulled out his prank bag. She knew what that meant. It was Rocky fun time. She went over to him and tugged on his shirt. She kissed him and then backed away.
"Aisha, what was that for?" He asked as he unzipped his bag. He had the perfect thing to annoy Jason.
"To remind you that I love you and that I'll miss you when Trini kills you." She said with a laugh as she left the room.
She knew that Rocky would do whatever he planned but hopefully not involve Trini. She closed the door and saw that everyone was still asleep. She went into the kitchen and found that someone was up because breakfast was made. She guessed that it was either Kim or Tommy because it was all Kim's favorites. She smiled when she realized that there were enough eggs to feed a small army. It must have been Tommy.
She looked through the cabinets and found the plates. She also found muffins and juice. She made her plate then sat down at the table. She sat there as watched Rocky set up something outside of Jason and Trini's door. She smiled when he knocked on their door and yelled to Jason.
He then ran down the hallway and knocked on Billy's door. She heard Billy yell at Rocky then come out of his room. He was dressed in a blue shirt and jeans. She guessed that he had been getting dressed when Rocky beat on the door. She watched Rocky run back down the hall. She knew that he would not touch Tommy's door because Kim was in there.
She saw Jason and Trini open the door. They didn't step out because they knew that Rocky had something planted there. They were of course right. He had put thumbtacks on the floor in front of their door. He then came out of his hiding place, grabbed Trini, and walked to the living room. He set her down then turned to watched Jason. He knew that Jason would not be able to step out of his room without stepping on a tack. He was laughing at Jason just standing there.

"Man, there are people still trying to sleep." Adam said as he lifted up his sleeping bag. He looked over at his wife who was still sleeping.
She could sleep through anything apparently. He smiled down at her and then stood up to quiet Rocky down. He saw Jason just standing in the doorway and then he understood. Rocky had put tacks on the floor again. He looked over at Trini who was trying not to laugh. She had her hand over her mouth to cover it up. He took things into his own hands then. He tackled Rocky and held him down while he screamed.
"Adam, let me go!" Rocky yelled while he was trying to dislodge Adam who was not setting on top of him.
Aisha had finished her breakfast and came to stand beside Trini. She noticed that Jason was grapping his sides because he was laughing so hard. She started laughing as well when Rocky started whining. She just let them go. She knew that Adam could handle his self around Rocky.
This was the scene that the Dinos, Hayley, and Kat walked in on. They had heard Rocky whining from outside and thought that someone had eaten his food. They had spent one day with him and knew that he liked his food.
When they came into the house though they saw Aisha and Trini standing off to the side while Jason was standing in the doorway of the bedroom that he and Trini had taken, they were all laughing.
They also saw Adam who was quiet and calm setting on Rocky. They couldn't believe it. They also noted that Tanya was still asleep and Billy was just standing beside Trini and Aisha looking on in disgust. Tommy and Kim were nowhere to be seen.

"I think that we need to get out there. There is no telling what is going on out there." Kim said as she stood up to grab her clothes.
She went into the bathroom to change. She had moved her bag into Tommy's room last night. She heard Rocky whining then and knew that someone had stopped his prank. She hoped that it was Adam since Jason would declare war and they would never get to sleep tonight.
"Kim, you might want to hurry up. You need to see this." Tommy said from the door.
He was laughing so hard that she hurried and got dressed. She noticed that he too had put on some clothes before he opened the door. She came to stand beside him and saw what was happening. She too began to laugh as well.
