Dreams Come True

Chapter 13

Tommy covered Kimberly's eyes as he walked her upstairs. It was February now. Kimberly was very, very happy. Tommy had brought her and the girls home finally. The girls were right behind them. Tommy knew he would have to help out to hurry the process up. So after working on his students papers, he did overtime, late nights getting the nursery blue for the boy and the fourth bedroom upstairs. With Trisha being so mad with constant whining about not getting her own room like the old house in the beginning, Kimberly and Tommy agreed reluctantly. Tommy caved in and gave the room to her, much to Kim's dislike.
"Okay, on the count of 3. 1-2-" Kim pulled her hands down and smiled. They were in the nursery.
"Wow, pretty!" Madison said.
"So much blue!" Trisha said.
"Your room is ready so go see," Tommy said to Trisha. Trisha ran down the hall "Well, do you like it?" Unlike the nurseries before, since they always knew it was going to be a little girl, Tommy and Kimberly had pink and purple walls. Now, with a boy, the room was white walls, with blue and white decorations. Sea items like starfish, boats, ducks, birds all around the room. Stars and moons decorations, along with a brand new baby crib, that is now wooden, not white. And a teddy bear handing from the blue and white sail. Kimberly laughed as she picked up a toy from the stackers.
"You did all of this?" Tommy nodded. Kimberly went to him and hugged him tightly. "Thank you." Kim touched the music mobile. Tommy kissed her head.
"Of course, my son only gets the best." Kim held his face as tears rolled down her face. "Now, come on, Beautiful. No crying yet." They hugged.

Trisha's room was done over the way she wanted it. Though it was small, only enough room for her bed, dresser, side table and desk. But it was a huge change from the nearly second master bedroom she shared with twins.
"It's small!" Kimberly walked into the room. Kim smiled and nodded patting her head.
"I told you princess, it wouldn't be big."
"I don't want it!" Trisha said as she got off her bed.
"Trisha Rose Oliver, you begged and begged for this room! You cried for hours, now you don't want it? Tough, it's yours now."
"I don't want it!"
"Come Maddy, come Mackenzie," Kim said. Kimberly simply walked out carrying Sydney. The twins followed her to see their room.
"Daddy, I want my old room."
"Princess, I'm sorry, but Sydney, Maddy and Mackenzie have that room now. This is your room. Daddy brought you, your own tv." Tommy handed over the pink remote. Trisha took it and pressed the button. Tommy sat her to the bed and sat beside her.
"But I don't want it, I don't want to be alone."
"But you are a big girl now. Please, for Daddy. Mommy will be so upset if you don't. We don't want Mommy sad right?" Trisha nodded.
"What about the monsters?"
"What monsters? Oh, baby, there aren't any monster in your room."
"Can I sleep with you tonight, Daddy?"
"You don't want to try your new room tonight?" Trisha shook her head. "What if Daddy stays with you?" Trisha shrugged. "Daddy will stay until you fall asleep, okay, princess." Trisha nodded. Tommy kissed her head. "Come on." Trisha jumped into his arms. Tommy carried her into the old room. Sydney had to have her Minnie Mouse decorations go with the twins' theme of fairies and flowers. But somehow Tommy got it to work.


Since it was Friday, Tommy decided to barbecue for the family.
Tommy was plating some hotdogs when Kimberly grabbed the chair for support. He quickly grabbed her by the waist. Kira was watching the twins on their swing set with Trent. Ethan was having fun playing a video game against Trisha. Hayley took over Kim's job, when she was told her she didn't feel good. Hayley made her go sit down.
"Beautiful, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, just a little tightness."
"Tightness?"
"It's nothing, Tommy." He helped her sit down. Tommy kneeled down before her. "I get them all the time now, you know that."
"Braxton-Hicks, not the real thing, right?"
"Trust me, you know when it's the real deal."
"He's just getting comfortable," Tommy said rubbing her belly "Aren't you my son, you are just trying to find the right spot in Mommy. It's getting tight in there for you! Isn't it, my poor baby, wants to come out and play with Daddy." Kim shook her head. Tommy had been talking to her belly since the day she told him she was pregnant again. It never seems to amaze her how such a strong and powerful man can be reduced to babytalk and not be one bit embarrassed. With all pregnancies it was the same. But now that they knew it was a boy, Tommy talked more and more to her belly. Sometimes even addressing her belly first before anything else. Kimberly gets sometimes annoyed to wake up and find him stroking and talking to her belly. But watching that, she falls in love with him all over again. He went and got her a pillow.
"You know, just because he can hear us, doesn't mean he wants to hear you all the time." Tommy was making faces and just baby noises to her belly. Kim finally had enough. "Get back to cooking, I'm hungry!" Kim shoved his head away.
"You treat me so badly wife." She pulled his head back and they kissed.
"I love you."
"I love you too."

In the Dino Thunder lab, Kimberly was looking over some system.
"Tommy, didn't Hayley install some new systems?"
"Yea, yesterday, why?"
"There aren't working."
"What?"
"See." Tommy tries to get the system.
"I'll call Hayley." Back at the Cyberspace, Hayley left Trent in charge after she got a call from Tommy.

Kira was at the bar helping Trent with some homework, when a young man walked in. It turned out to be Blake, a famous motor cross rider and former power ranger. Blake invites Kira to a race.
Hayley is able to point out to the couple that the whole state of California is covered with a blanket of evil.
"What could be causing this?"
"I don't know, I need to run more test. But whatever it is, it's big trouble." Kimberly looked up at Tommy.

"I can't believe they are evil," Kira said.
"Look, nothing is always has it seems," Kimberly said.
"Kim's right," Tommy said. "We are going to need some help."
"From where?" Tommy only knows one person to help them, Cam.

"Oh, my race. We should all go."
"Yea!" The race begins with everyone cheering on Blake. He wins the race, earning him his national title.


Tommy stood at the doorway to the back door, watching his girls playing in the backyard with the dogs. Kimberly with them. Tommy smiled. Kim looked up from swinging Madison around. She smiled at him.
"Daddy! Come play!" Tommy walked out the house. They all ran around, Tommy getting chased by his girls. He picked up Trisha and spun her around. It took a while, but finally the girls got Tommy to the ground, with help from the sneaky Kimberly. Tommy rolled around with them, tickling and kissing them off. Kimberly ended up being pulled down. They all laid on the ground looking up at the sky. Mackenzie pointing out the clouds.
"A monkey!"
"No, a bunny!"
"Monkey!"
"Bunny!"
"I think it's a horse!"
"DADDY!" Kim shook her head. Tommy put his arm around Kim, she moved closed to his. They stared at each other. Tommy mouthed, 'I Love You'. Kim moved grass from his face and kissed him.
"I love you too." They kissed again.
"Mommy, what do you see?" Trisha asked.
"A beautiful family."
"I don't see that!" Tommy laughed.
"Well, I do," Tommy said kissing Kim's forehead.

It was now, February 24th, Trisha's 7th birthday. Tommy and Kimberly decided to let the professionals handle the party as they had a little tit city built in the park for the celebration. Kimberly had made the plans since February started. Not wanting to deal with cooking, only getting presents. They got home a little bit after sunset. Mackenzie was playing with her new toy. Sydney was banging with her toys. Kimberly was putting away some clothes, when Tommy came in carrying the huge bears and dolls inside from the car. Kimberly rubbed her belly another round of Braxton-Hicks today. Kimberly sat on Trisha's bed. Tommy saw that.
"Baby, what's wrong?"
"Nothing. Can you just..."
"Sure." She stood up and walked out.
"Mommy, okay?" Trisha asked.
"Yea. Did you have a fun birthday?" Trisha nodded.
"Will you sleep in your room tonight?" Trisha nodded. "Alone?"
"But.."
"Please, Daddy needs to stay with Mommy tonight alone."
"Why?"
"Mommy needs Daddy tonight. Daddy wants Mommy to feel better."
"Okay. But will you come if I call?"
"Of course." Tommy kissed her head. "Happy birthday, princess."
"Thanks Daddy." They hugged.
"Give Daddy a kiss." Trisha kiss him quickly. "That's not a kiss!"
"Daddy! NO!" Tommy started tickling her and putting slopping kisses all over her. Madison came in to see what was all the screaming about. Tommy grabbed her and did the same. Mackenzie got caught too. Sydney, the only sane one, stayed in her bed at first, but then climbed down. Tommy laid in a pile his girls over him, trying to tickle him, as he got them. Tommy grabbed Sydney and played with her as well. Tommy put his girls to bed. He closed the bedroom door behind him. Kimberly was in bed on her side. She hasn't slept on her back for almost 3 months. It wasn't good for the baby, but more important, she hated it. She hated looking down and slowly seeing her feet disappear. Tommy undid his shoes and was about to sling them into the closet.
"You know better." Tommy stopped right before he was about to release them. He walked over to the closet and put them away. He came out from their bathroom in just some boxers. Tommy tosses his pants and shirt across the basket. "You know better."
"How do you do that?" Tommy said putting them down into the basket. Kimberly was laying on her side facing away from him. She laughed.
"I am your wife, I know you." Tommy slipped on his shirt and pants. He got into bed behind him. Kimberly turned over and laid to his chest. They kissed.


Mesogog decides to take Dr. Mercer's bad dreams and inflict the same on the rangers. Elsa monitors all the rangers. She was most disgusted to find the happy couple smiling and kissing. Tommy put his arm around Kimberly as they went to sleep. Tommy started having a nightmare about dealing with a monster and Kimberly being in labor in the middle of the battle.

***Dream sequence***

With the battle between the Black Ranger and Plant monster. Kimberly sat there frightened and slight contractions. With every contraction, the ground shook because of the battle. She felt as if she was on the verge of the baby coming. Kimberly rolled to her side in pain.
"No," she whispered holding her stomach. 'I can't lose you, I can't lose my son!' she thought, as Tommy tried to deal with the monster. How he was in the middle of battle boggled him.
"Kim, hang on!"
"Is the Black Ranger worried about his wife," the monster taunted. Kimberly was backing away from the battle. Tommy was knocked backward, as the monster went to Kimberly. "Mesogog will make your son a great addition to our forces."
"Never," Kim said. She held her stomach. "OW!"
"Does it hurt? Do you want your Black Ranger? I can help you. Take all the pain away. Just ask me." Kimberly arched her back and screamed. "Your son will destroy the world!"
"Stay away from my wife and our son!" Tommy appeared and attacked the monster. Tommy defeats the monster.

***Dream sequence ending***


Tommy sat up quickly.
"Whoa, Tommy, what's wrong?" Kim sat up beside him.
"I shouldn't have had that 2nd hot dog with everything on." Kim smiled. They kissed. Tommy quickly rubs her belly and head. "You okay? The baby is fine? Are you okay?"
"Yea. Yes."
"No contractions right?"
"No, baby, what's wrong?" Kim touched his face as she giggled.
"Something... that dream was too real." She kissed him.
"It was just dream, now go to sleep." Tommy smiled and kissed her again.
Elsa moved on to Kira, as Tommy and Kimberly hugged each other and laid back down. Elsa attacks the other rangers, Connor had a little probably but was able to come out of it once Kira and Ethan helped him.

Next morning, they all stopped by the Cyberspace. Connor every excited about the weekend being here. On the couch, they found Trent snoozing. They all laughed at him.

Tommy sat in his chair, holding Sydney, she had a fever all day and Kimberly was getting worried more now. Kimberly had to keep the girls away from in order to keep whatever Sydney had contained, though she knew that would be a little impossible as they continued to run around the house, breathing on Sydney, letting her sneeze and cough on them as well. It had been a few days now dealing with Sydney's cold. Kimberly came downstairs after putting Trisha to bed. It was almost 9 pm.
"How is she?" Tommy rubbed Sydney's back and head.
"Still hot."
"Maybe we should try another bath or..."
"She'll be fine, Beautiful, it's just a cold."
"Trisha or the twins never got colds or fevers like this." Kimberly hated her children getting sick, what parent would. Tommy knew that. She always got very concerned, almost obsessed with getting them well fast. It was as if every time, her heart breaks to see her children sick, Tommy knew it and felt the same. The helplessness of a parent when their child is ill is very torturest.
"It's going to be okay." Tommy knew he had to stay calm for Kim's sakes. Kim kissed Sydney's head. Tommy had her asleep against his chest, in just a diaper with a small blanket around her. Tommy made Kim go to bed. She had Sydney all day, since she first noticed the fever and having that on her mind wasn't good for her or the baby. Little Nathaniel (Or James) needed Mommy calm, if not, he would express that dislike with rounds of punches and kicks. Kim could always tell when she was getting a little too excited or worried, her son would give her his little warnings.
Tommy carried Sydney around the house later that night, she was fussing, unwilling to go to bed again.
"God, your still burning up." Tommy shook her as she moved her head and refused her juice bottle. "Please, Sydney!"
"NO!" She yelled and started crying, Trisha came out her bedroom, rubbing her eyes.
"Daddy?"
"Princess go back to bed." Tommy was trying to get Sydney to stop crying so the rest of the house wouldn't wake up.
"What's wrong with Sydney?"
"She's not feeling good."
"Can I help?"
"No, just go to bed, princess."
"Can I go sleep with Mommy?"
"Go." Tommy patted her head as she passed. Tommy closed the bedroom door as Kim woke up and helped Trisha get under the covers with her. Tommy went to the phone. He dialed the one person he knew he could help.
"Hello?"
"Mom, it's me."
"Tommy? It's 1 in the morning! What's wrong? Is everything okay? Is the baby coming? Is Kim..."
"Mom, it's okay! It's okay! It's Sydney."
"Sydney! Oh! Kim told me little Syd was running a high fever. Have you tried a bath?"
"Kim did that already. She got medicine from the doctor but still no change, Mom. It's been 2 days, what can we..what can I do?"
"Tommy, son, sometimes, these things happen. You got many colds when you were baby and...your father and I just had to wait it out. Don't worry, Sydney will get better. She will. Try another bathe, and her medicine with some juiceand just hold her close."
"Thanks, Mom."
"And son..."
"Yea, Mom."
"Don't ever call me at 1 in the morning and scare me to death like this." Tommy laughed.
"Sorry. Of course, Mom. Goodnight."
"Night, son. I'll come by in the morning with a special remedy if nothing has changed."
"Okay. Bye."
"Bye, son. I love you."
"Love you too, Mom.. Bye." Tommy clicked off his phone. He looked down at Sydney. "How about a bathe?" He kissed her head.


Tommy ran some water in the sink and settled Sydney in it. Sydney cried at first, but then allowed the water to soothe and cool her down. Tommy dressed her into a nightgown and went to the sofa chair. He wrapped them in a blanket tightly. Tommy and Sydney fell asleep in that chair. Kimberly woke up the next morning and felt the bed.
"Tommy?" Trisha moaned. Kimberly got up and slipped on her robe. The sight of Tommy asleep in the chair with Sydney touched her heart. Kim went over to them. She touched Sydney's head and she smiled. Tommy woke up.
"Hey."
"Morning," Kim said. "You did it."
"What?"
"Her fever is gone." Tommy placed his chin to her head. It was no longer warm. "You did it."
"No, we did it." Kimberly bent down and kissed him on the lips.
"I love you."
"I love you too."

Just a few more chapters to go people!
Kim goes into early labor, will the baby survive?
Can Mesogog defeat Tommy and take his family as his prize?
Will the rangers defeat this evil foe and save the world?
All that and more to come!
