“Is it a bad thing that I’m too tired to celebrate?” Bridge asked Sky as he flopped onto the makeshift double bed in their shared quarters.
Sky smirked, “What have you been doing all night?”
“After we got off duty? Celebrating,” Bridge answered. “But you know what I mean, celebrating…just with you.”
“I know what you meant,” Sky sighed. “Which is fine, I’m too tired to celebrate too.”
As usual, Bridge got into the bathroom first while Sky changed. When he came out, it was Sky’s turn while Bridge got changed. Sky came out to find Bridge sitting in the corner on the floor with his legs underneath him.
“You okay?” Sky asked after watching Bridge for a minute.
“Yeah, a little too much…everyone,” Bridge answered, opening his eyes to look up at Sky.
“I can take off for a little while if you need some space,” Sky offered, and Bridge could see the concern etched on Sky’s face.
“Nah, I’m good, thanks anyway. I can center myself just fine with you…actually, I think I center myself better when you’re here,” Bridge rambled, only being quieted by a firm kiss that he hadn’t seen coming.
“C’mon,” Sky laughed, “Let’s get you centered in bed.”
“Gladly,” Bridge answered with a silly grin.
Sky offered his hand, which Bridge quickly took. On his feet, Bridge didn’t let go of Sky’s hand as they went to their bed. Sky stretched out on his back, letting Bridge curl up next to him. With his head on Sky’s chest, Bridge used his free hand to draw aimlessly on Sky’s stomach. And although he felt Sky squriming underneath his touch, Bridge was in no hurry to stop.
“Will you stop!” Sky laughed, grabbing Bridge’s hand. “It tickles.”
“It’s gonna take a little while to get used to you in red, you know,” Bridge said, twisting his hand so that he could hold Sky’s as well.
“Not so much for me. I’ve been dreaming of being in red for so long…pictured myself being the red Ranger forever. Now you in blue…well, you were wearing blue long enough before the promotion so I’m used to it.”
“Hey, I can’t help it if blue looks better on me than green.”
“I thought you looked good in green…you look in blue…I’m sure you’ll look good in red…you look good without any…”
“Don’t you say it!” Bridge mock-warned.
Sky rolled his eyes, and Bridge knew it without seeing it. Sky brought his other hand up to rest in the middle of Bridge’s back. Bridge used the quiet time to concentrate on Sky’s heartbeat beneath his ear, the steady rise and fall of Sky’s chest as he breathed, thankful for the consistency that Sky always afforded him. Sky stared at the ceiling, wishing his father could see who he’d grown up to be.
“Has it really been less than a year since we became Rangers?” Bridge asked rhetorically.
“Yeah,” Sky sighed. “So much changed in less than a year.”
“Yeah. For the better.”
“For the better,” Sky affirmed.
After a minute of silence, Bridge asked, “So, what are we doing tomorrow?”
“The usual, patrol and the training of cadets.”
“Oh, good,” Bridge replied, nuzzling into Sky.
They fell asleep together, knowing that whatever the future gave them, they’d face it together. And they couldn’t ask for anything more.
