Author’s Notes: THANK YOU TO SHAWN!
Without my favorite big brother, this would not have turned out half as
well as it did. He kicked butt on
editing! This story was spawned by a
sleepless night in which I was lying in bed thinking of weird things….don’t
ask!

Yawning, she settled her back
against his chest; his arms warm around her slender waist. It amazed her
how she'd ended up in his bed naked and sated in his arms. The gentle heat of
his breath fanned softly over the back of her neck. Lying peacefully in
the dark, she slowly began to remember the events that led her here.
--
The day had started out a pretty normal
one. Bridge had C-Squad in the simulator most of the morning while Z was
working on a new case with Boom and Kat in the lab. That had left her to
run D-Squad through their paces in the obstacle course. Once they'd
finished, she'd let them loose for the afternoon before she'd headed for Sky's
office, intent on talking to him about their training schedule and the on-going
problem with several of them.
Ever busy with his duty, he was on the phone when she arrived. Smiling,
she sank down into the plush beige chair across from him. While he was
talking to whoever was on the other end, she took the time to thoughtfully
consider the pictures he'd finally put up on his desk. There was one from
her birthday their rookie year as Rangers that had all five of them mugging for
the camera in it. There was another one of her and Bridge goofing off,
and one of Jack and Z at the Yellow Ranger's 18th birthday party. Across
from those were two pictures in a connected oak frame – one of him and his dad,
and one of him and his mom. The one that did eventually catch her eye
though was the one of him and her from the Officer's Ball a few months
before. She couldn't help smiling at it, knowing the same picture was on
her nightstand beside her bed. He hadn't wanted to attend, but Anubis had
insisted since it was the last one Sky would attend as a Ranger. She
remembered him grumbling about not wanting to ask any of the younger girls, so
she'd opened her mouth and suggested he take her.
They couldn't dance around each other forever. Baby steps and all...
"Sorry, on the phone with some worried parents," he explained as he
hung up, turning that cute Sky-smile on her.
Syd grinned back. It still gave her a jolt to see him seated behind a
desk instead of walking the halls. He'd been by her side for so long, it
was strange to no longer have him being a Ranger, but instead Commander of the
entire Delta Base. She was proud of him though. "It's cool, our conversation may take a while as it is."
Sky straightened, sensing there was a confrontation brewing. The Pink Ranger
was good at starting arguments, let alone screaming matches, when she wanted
to. "Oh?"
"Yeah, has to do with D-Squad. Their sleeping arrangements and
training schedules," she started, her face losing all amusement.
It had been an issue between them for weeks now. There were two
groups of six on D-Squad vying to become Power Rangers. The boys were
doing just fine, but the six girls were a different story. Four of them
had ganged up on the other two and were making not only training unbearable,
but off-duty time as well.
"Syd, they're going to have to learn to get along," Sky issued
the same comment to her complaints that he'd been giving her for weeks.
"I understand that!" she growled back, making him arch an eyebrow at her. "But when you're afraid
to sleep in your own bed, that's where I draw the line!"
"Oh please."
"Schuyler Tate! Don't brush this off!" she roared, her
rising voice causing his eyes to widen. "It's affecting their
training! And besides that, Doggie never would have ignored this!"
Sky looked as if he'd been slapped. Syd had been all for his
ascension to Commander and now she was throwing it in his face. "Not
a smart way to get what you want, Office Drew."
Syd narrowed her own gaze at him and stood, leaning her hands on his
desk. "You of all people understand how important it is to get along
with your roommates and a good night's sleep. I have two cadets who are
being ostracized and threatened. If you won't do something about it, I
will. And I'll involve Bridge, Z, Boom, Kat AND Supreme Command Cruger,"
she hissed.
Angrily, Sky pushed out of his chair and stalked around his desk to stand in
front of her. Syd turned to face him, arms crossed over her chest as she
glared at him. "Syd…"
"Oh come off it Sky!" she argued with venom lacing her voice.
"When you were Red, and even Blue, you'd have
chewed their asses out by now. I'm sick of getting up in the morning and
finding two of my cadets in the common room because they're afraid to sleep in
their rooms." She invaded his personal space as they glared at each
other defiantly. Despite Sky's promotion to Commander, Syd was still the
only person who could talk to him like he was a normal human being. "Fix
this this!"
"Make me!"
Tempers flared white-hot so high, their emotions racing out of control until
neither knew who moved first, only that they were suddenly kissing each other
hungrily. Their argument was violently washed away by the lustful craving
they've denied themselves for far to long. But no more.
Syd's small hands were clutching his arms while Sky's fingers were busily
burrowing into her gorgeous blond hair. His grip tightened when she let
out a breathy moan, quivering against him. Angling their heads, Sky deepened
the kiss.
In all the years of their friendship, they'd never been openly attracted to
each other. Yes, they had noticed they were attractive, but Sky had
always seemed untouchable and grouchy, and Syd had been the whiny, spoiled
Daddy's Princess. There time as Rangers had obviously changed their
perspectives of each other, but they apparently hadn't realized how much so
till just now.
"Syd…" he gasped, moving to wrap his arms around her while he buried
his face in the side of her soft, warm neck. Her slim, toned arms went
around his neck, holding on tightly while her world spun out of control.
"What just happened?" she squeaked, wondering how their
argument had twisted so suddenly into to a passionate kiss.
Sky didn't answer her; he just continued to hold her close. His own
breathing calmed slightly, each intake of air was accompanied by Syd's floral
scented perfume. He was a former Red Ranger, and now Commander of Earth's
"Sky?" she softly called his name, her hands sliding from around
his neck to rest over his chest as she pulled back.
"Wow…well, that's a first." he leaned back to gaze down into her
bright blue eyes. Her soft lips appeared plump from their heady kissing,
her eyes were glazed over with passion. When in the hell had his appreciation
for her beauty exploded into full blown attraction?
"Sky... Did we just…?"
"Kiss? Hell yes. And I'm fighting the urge to do it
again."
The way his eyes darkened erotically with that little comment swept a tingling,
burning sensation low in her belly. "You want to do it
again?" The aching expression in his eyes answered her question
better than any words could have. Without so much as another comment, her
fingers tightened on the fabric of his shirt before she yanked him down.
Their mouths fused together, their teeth clinking as they tormented each other
with one ravenous kiss after another. Sky drew her closer, his need
evident in the hardness that rumbled against her stomach. Syd's arms
moved of their own accord, twining around Sky's neck. Blindly, he guided
her back and lifted her onto the edge of his desk. Throwing caution to
the wind, his arm swatted across the surface, sending papers and pictures
flying as he cleared it off.
When they came back together, their kisses slowed, drawing out the pleasure
sensuously. Without thinking, Sky hoisted her father onto his desk,
letting her wrap her legs around his waist. Mindlessly, Syd unzipped his
jacket, ripping it off in record time before tossing it on the floor. His
shirt followed, giving her unrestricted access to his muscled chest, which her
questing fingers explored with no hesitancy at all.
Sky's lips blazed a moist, hot trail of deeply probing kisses from her mouth to
the side of her neck. He loved the way her breathing hitched and her
pulse hammered under his caress. Grinning, Sky began sucking on her skin
while his fingers found the zipper to her uniform, easing it down.
Quickly he pushed the top down, trapping her arms at her sides. Syd made
a helpless noise when he nudged her back to lie on his
desk. Before he could rethink the move or Syd could stop him, Sky leaned
over and closed his mouth around one black lace-covered breast.
"S-s-SKY!" she choked out, her back arching off the desk when
his tongue began twirling over the peak. He grinned while devouring her nipple
with teeth and tongue. The sounds she made were driving him mad with desire,
though he concentrated on her pleasure. Satisfied, he pulled back, still
looming over her, and adored her lovely form. Soft breaths shuddered out of
her. Sheer, unrelenting need roared up inside of him to the point he was
helpless to fight it. Reaching up, Sky yanked her bra down so that it was
just under her breasts, banding her ribs, pushing the lovely, cream-colored globes
closer together for his viewing pleasure. Leaning down, he wrapped his
lips around one stiff, coral-colored peak. He pleasured her with his
tongue, slowly tracing the gentle slop of her breast, bathing it in wetness
before scraping his teeth
across it. Whispery moans escaped
"Sky! Please!" she begged softly,
fighting against her uniform which still had her arms pinned. The amazing man
she'd grown to love half peeled off her uniform while never taking his eyes off
her for even a heartbeat.
Her hands flew to his head the second she was free, fingers twining between the
short strands of his hair. She tugged his head down to her chest, urging
him to feast. Closing her eyes,
"Hmm?" Her hands lifted to his
shoulders.
"I need you," he gasped, his hips snapping against hers.
Something inside of Syd trembled at the sound of his plea. She wanted
nothing more than to give in; a first for her perhaps, since she'd never given
in to sexual tension like this right off the bat. But the sensible part
of her, which still had a tiny bit of control left, had to be sure he wasn't
going to regret this later. "Sky?" her voice trembled while his
kisses slinked his way down her body.
He groaned at the interruption. "What?"
"Are you sure about this?" Her bottom lip caught between her teeth,
worrying it gently. Sky stared at her, his eyes clouded with passionate need.
He didn't utter a single word, choosing instead to lean into her, his hands
cupping her cheeks. His lips caressed hers firmly, but she knew he was
still holding back. Sky's body was thrumming with suppressed hunger.
Throwing caution to the wind, Syd dug her fingers into his hips and gave back
what he was dishing out full force.
Sky suddenly ripped his mouth from hers, chest heaving.
"This is Kat, go ahead Commander."
"Dr. Manx, Office Drew and I are taking the rest of the day off.
Unless it's an emergency, neither of us is to be called, understood?"
"Of course. Is everything alright
Sky?"
"Every thing's perfect. Tate out."
Turning, Sky took in
Syd brushed her fingers up his arms before trailing them down his chest and
abs. She smiled into their kiss when he stomach muscles clenched at her
caress. Again, Sky boosted her up onto his desk. Nudging her back,
he finished pulling her zipper to the waist and began tugging the rest of her
uniform off her body. He grinned at the tiny triangle of black lace that were the sexiest panties he'd ever seen. "Very
nice," he almost growled. Bending forward, his lips connected with
the quivering muscles of her toned, flat belly. She gasped loudly when
his tongue darted into her belly button.
"Sky!" she squealed before dissolving into laughter as his fingers
attacked her sides, which were ticklish.
"You forget, I'm your best friend, I know where you're ticklish at,"
he chuckled against her stomach. It was then that the scent of her
arousal caught his senses like striking a match. He was on fire that very
second. Interest piqued, he slid his fingers under the thin straps of her
panties and pulled. His eyes zeroed in on the tender part of her he'd
never seen before.
With her underwear gone, Sky traced her trembling thighs with his strong
hands. Finally, she opened for him like a flower blossoming. When
his fingers slowly swept across her weeping center, her entire body bucked
toward him. He brushed more firmly against her warm core with his thumbs,
unable to conceal the wicked smile that erupted on his face when he felt how
wet she was for him. "Syd..."
"Sky...OhmyGod..." The very second his
agile tongue stroked over her in one long, bold lick, she let out a strangled
cry of surprise and approval. Smiling against her, Sky eagerly spread her
thighs further apart before he dove straight in with lips and tongue, devouring
her.
addiction. Despite his attempts to hold her down, her thighs clenched
tight around his head, trapping him against her. The softest, most
sensually wet noises Sky made with his mouth caused her nipples to tighten even
more than before. The grip her fingers had on his scalp stiffened while
her breasts bounced and bobbed each time she arched her back off the desk,
thrusting herself against his lashing tongue.
Observing her through his eyelashes was an education in unrestrained
passion. All of the women he'd dated and subsequently had sex with had
nothing on
"Close... so close..." His frisky tongue dove inside her until
shudders wracked her entire body. When he began nibbling her swollen clit the
subsequent tremors flooding her nervous system signaled how close to the
blissful edge of oblivion she was.
Pulling back, he quickly inserted a single finger into her, the sudden
intrusion caused her to groan deep in the back of her throat. A second
followed the first as he furiously pumped them in and out of her. Her
eyes squeezed tightly shut,
"Sky!" she cried, her voice a mix of longing and
frustration. "Please!"
Chuckling, Sky bent his head to her moist heat, his hot breath blowing across
her fevered skin. "Let go for me, Syd," he breathed seconds
before he drew her clit into his mouth and suckled it, strumming it with his
tongue, while his fingers continued to plunge into her.
Syd shamelessly threw her head back, shoulders arching off the desk, and
screamed as her body flew apart in the most intense climax she'd ever felt
before. Her body was undone, soaring, straining, reaching
for the stars themselves. Sky continued to gently caress her clit, his
fingers easing her body from on high. She sighed, and then gently collapsed
against the hard wood, her mind blank and her body pleasantly sated.
"Are you alright?" he teased, drawing his fingers from her body
before he stood to lean over her.
"Ask me that when my body stops shaking," she laughed softly,
humming in her throat as she settled down. Sky chuckled at her even as
his own body strained. Syd groaned when she felt the feather light touch
of his kisses from her stomach to her breasts. "Sky?"
"Yes?" he lazily asked, looking into her beloved face.
Her bright blue eyes were open and staring right at him. "I want you
inside of me," she stated boldly, reaching between them to caress the
erect bulge in his pants. "Now!" she growled.
Nodding, Sky reached down for his zipped, quickly shoving it down before
letting his pants drop to his ankles. By then, Syd's fingers were at the
waistband of his boxers, ripping them off as far as she could before he kicked
them off the rest of the way. He groaned when her cool, soft hands took
hold of his hot flesh. "Now Sky," Syd ordered through clenched
teeth, letting him go.
Without further prompting, Sky took hold of her hips and thrust deeply inside.
His heated surge tore a deep moan from Syd's throat, the acute sense of
fullness overwhelming her. The feel of her tight, quivering body encased
him with the most raw pleasure he had ever felt
before. The only problem by then was that Syd's needy whimpers and his own
desire to cum inside of her prompted him to pull back and then thrust forward
again.
Syd's sinfully delicious cries of ecstasy had him snapping his hips against
hers harder and faster, straining into her with body. He leaned over her,
pulling her knees up, creating the leverage to take her the way he'd fantasized
about for years. She clung to him fully, kissing him hard, loving the way he
made love to her so good. His mind barely registered her fingers digging into
his shoulders as the pleasure built to a
crescendo. Her legs suddenly closed around his waist, her ankles crossing over
the small of his back, drawing him into her deeply. He reared back,
pounding her body to his so they were chest to chest, fucking her furiously.
"SKY!" Syd shrieked suddenly, her body
viciously tightening around him as her climax hit her full force. Roaring waves
of pleasure caused her head to snap back, her teeth clenching, eyes shut,
rocking her hips into his through it all.
Unable to hold out any longer, Sky released out a strangled response, his cock
twitching in powerful hot bursts deep inside of her. They were both
panting when they collapsed against his desk. "Fuck," he
quietly muttered over her neck, his body softening inside of her even as her
lower body was still rocked by tiny aftermath tremors of her climax. Syd
said nothing, her face nuzzled into his neck, thoroughly enjoying the lingering
pleasure.
--
She couldn't help but grin. They'd laid there on his desk, intimately
connected, for how long she couldn't recall. A gentle moment later they were
separated... the two of them had both been shaky and astonished; not because
they were inexperienced, but because they never thought they'd have sex with
each other. They were best friends after all. Not a word was said
as they'd dressed, but in an unspoken agreement Syd had accompanied him to his
room, where passion and pleasure had taken hold again and they'd made love for
the longest, most pleasurable time. Discovering exciting new sides to each
other in the process of loving one another had been a fulfilling
experience. And now, in the after glow they were spooned together in his
bed.
The warm softness of his lips alerted her to him wakening seconds before
one large, warm palm cupped her breast. "You awake?" his sleepy
voice rumbled in her ear.
"Mmhmm," she sighed, arching her neck to
give his mouth better access to the column.
"How can I want you again when I've had you so many times tonight
already?" he growled.
Syd just sighed happily, whimpering when he nudged her leg forward and plunged
into her from behind. "Sky…" she panted, his name dying on her
lips when he pinched her nipple. He grinned against the back of her neck
as he rolled the tip between his fingers.
"Stay the night with me?" he asked, the sounds of their flesh
snapping together accompanying his request.
"Yesssss…." she hissed.

Z raised a curious eyebrow the next morning when Syd emerged for breakfast,
practically glowing. The Yellow Ranger laughed and then announced her
suspicions. "Someone got laid!" she teased.
The Red Ranger looked up, startled, while Syd grinned at her
teammates. "It shows?" she asked, watching Bridge frown and Z
crack up.
"You're freaking glowing Pinkie!" Z pointed out.
"B and D Squads to the
--
The twelve D-Squad members were lined up when B-Squad came in. Z
and Bridge were startled when Syd and Sky stared at each other in a loving way
they never had before. The Yellow and Red Rangers shot each other a look
that said there was something going on there and they were going to find out
when the meeting was over.
"Something’s up," Z muttered. Bridge just nodded, his eyes
darting back and forth between his two best friends.
"It's come to my attention that there are a few personnel problems
on D-Squad. I'm not going to tell you who told me, nor am I directing
this at anyone in particular. What I'm going to tell you is that if
Officers Drew, Carson or Delgado hear about these
problems again, they're authorized to haul your butt up here for a conference
with me," Sky threatened, making four of the girls wince. "No
one should be so uncomfortable due to fellow squad members that they can't
sleep in their own rooms. If it happens again I'm going to discharge you
from SPD so fast your head's going to spin. Am I understood?" he
demanded.
"Yes Sir!" D-Squad responded.
"Good, D-Squad dismissed."
When the twelve were gone, the Rangers turned their attention to
Sky. "What brought that on?" Bridge wanted to know.
"Syd brought it to my attention," Sky explained, reaching out
to run his hand down her back in a caress that spoke more than a boss or
friend. It was a lover's touch. He let out a startled gasp when Syd
suddenly launched herself into his arms.
"Thank you for listening to me," she gushed, nuzzling her face into
his neck.
Sky grinned and held her close. "Anytime," he murmured, kissing
her cheek.
"Okay, what the hell's going on?" Z demanded. She and Bridge
stared at Syd and Sky before the answer finally dawned. "Why
couldn't you have sexed him up when he was Red Ranger?" Z moaned in annoyance.
"Hell, how about when he was Blue? It would have made life a hell of
a lot easier for the rest of us!"
Syd's eyes widened and she let out a nervous laugh while Sky's face went
scarlet and he glared. Bridge was covering his laughter with his
hand. "Funny, Z, very funny!"
