Subject: power rangers chase and riley chapter 5

All rights reserved. Riley, Chase and all other Power Rangers are the

or sexual orientation of any of the characters that have been included in
the story.

Everyone could see it happening. The lingering glances, the touches that
lasted just a moment or two too long, and of course the sounds of the two
boys making out in the base whenever they thought they were alone. Within
days of their beach trip, it was clear that Chase and Riley were just as
real a couple as Shelby and Tyler, except that the two boys seemed
completely unable to restrain themselves.

No one was all that surprised when Riley decided to move in with
Chase. First, Chase had a nicer apartment than Miss Morgan was willing to
give Riley as a museum intern, and Riley spent most of his free time there
anyway. There was room for most of his stuff, the only thing left was to
move all of the furniture and things over into Chase's apartment.

All of the Rangers offered to help, with most of them waiting at Chase's
place while Tyler and Riley moved everything over in Tyler's truck. Most of
Riley's stuff was easy to take, and the heavy furniture was part of the
apartment so it wasn't coming with them. The only exception to that was the
bed at Miss Morgan's insistence; Kendall thought that the two would never
actually sleep if they stayed in the same bed, and she needed both of them
rested for working in the café and fighting Sledge's horde of monsters.

Tyler and Riley looked at the bed in dismay. It was a twin size bed, but
neither boy was sure how to get it through the doorway and down the stairs
to Tyler's car. Tyler was at the foot of the bed, glancing down at it.

"Kendall's insane. There's no way we're going to be getting this bed
through the door frame without breaking something. Why does she want you to
bring the bed anyway? I thought she was crazy serious about not taking any
of the furniture." Tyler sighed, thinking it'd be much easier just to get a
new one or to not bring the bed at all.

Riley replied with a smirk. "Well, the alternative is that I share a bed
with Chase for the entire time I'm staying with him."

Tyler's eyes got wide and he started to cough when he realized what Riley
was hinting at.

"Oh god, I'm not going to get that image out of my head any time soon. We
already see enough of that at the base!" Tyler groaned. "Okay, we need to
figure out how to get the bed into Chase's apartment. Think we should call
the others for help?"

Riley giggled. "Nah, we can do it. Nice to see that changed your mind so
quick. Maybe if we try and carry it on its side that'll work? If we bang up
the place we can always just remind Kendall this was her idea to break the
museum rules to begin with."

Tyler grinned back at the youngest member of the team. "Great idea! Let's
get `er goin!"

A few minutes later, the boys had everything loaded up and were on their
way back to Chase's apartment.

When Tyler and Riley returned, Chase ran out to hug Riley and spun him
around, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Missed you beautiful. You didn't have to get the bed you know, we could
have shared the one I have in my room. Chase said, just loud enough that
the Rangers and Miss Morgan could hear him.

"Chase, not a chance. I need all of you rested and I do not want to be
hearing about any... adventures you two might be having. Separate beds, and
if it were possible then separate rooms." Miss Morgan exclaimed, while the
rest of the team tried not to think of what would happen if there was only
one bed in Chase's apartment for the two of them.

"Right, sorry Miss Morgan. It was just a suggestion." Chase replied,
winking at their mentor. "Let's get everything up; Riley, let's go find a
place for the bed on our own."

Tyler, Koda, Shelby, Ivan and Kendall grabbed most of the smaller boxes and
assorted pieces of Riley's life and brought them into the house, leaving
Chase outside with Riley and the bed. Just as the two boys were about to
get the bed up to the top of the stairs, Riley lost his grip on his half of
the bed. The bed frame hit Riley's legs and knocked him partway down the
stairs.

Riley cried out in pain and the rest of the team came to lift Riley out of
the way. Tyler and Koda helped Chase with the bed while Tyler carried Riley
to one of the chairs in Chase's apartment. Kendall looked Riley over, and
by the time she was done the boys had finished moving Riley's bed into
Chase's bedroom.

"Doesn't look like any breaks or serious injuries. Just in case, check in
with me tomorrow and we'll see if you need to get looked over any more. You
should rest for the rest of the day." Kendall explained to Riley while
everyone else huddled around the younger dirty blond boy. "If that's
everything, we should go. Chase, keep an eye on him and remember to have
him contact me tomorrow."

"How are you feeling Ri? You took quite a fall there, is everything okay?"
Chase inquired worryingly.

"I think I just want to lie down. Miss Morgan gave me some medicine and
it's making me feel sleepy. Should probably go lie down, but I'm worried
about putting weight on my legs right now."

"No worries, I got you covered mate."

Chase bent down to pick Riley up in his arms, carrying him away like a
wedding night bride. Both boys realized what was happening and giggled.

"I thought this only happened on wedding nights" Riley cooed. "I don't
remember having a ceremony, and these definitely aren't wedding clothes."

"I was planning on telling you, but then you went and fell so you missed
the surprise announcement" Chase replied. "Surprise."

Both boys laughed and Chase carefully laid Riley down on their new double
sized bed. The sheets were a mix of black and green, with the colours
overlapping and interconnecting where the sheets had been hastily thrown
on. Chase laid down next to Riley, lightly tracing his fingers along the
side of Riley's chest and body.

Chase whispered consolingly to Riley. "You're beautiful. I'm so sorry your
first time sleeping here is going to be a painful one for you."

Riley gave an amused sniffle at what Chase said. "You're so cheesy. I'm
sure I'll be fine. Right now I just want to rest."

Chase was about to say something when Riley put his finger on Chase's
lips. "Shhh, no more talking. Just lay here with me."

Riley gingerly moved his body so he was pressed against Chase, and Chase
responded by wrapping his right arm over the smaller boy. Both boys smiled
at the contact and dozed off, content in how they were situated.
