Author's Note: I should first mention this before you begin reading. I am a strong supporter of Kim/Ron relationship ideas. Therefore, the character of Josh Mankey, also known as Monkey Boy, is a character that I dislike extremely. So if you are one of the few Kim/Josh people, then you might want to find somewhere else on the Internet. Because my little area of the web supports Kim & Ron forever. Please review to story I would like to hear what you have to say a bout the story.
Now as for the story, I've rated it t because it is a bit mature for the following reasons. One, while I do this, #$%#$%, in place of curse words, it is easy to infer what words I do mean. Second, there is a bit of detailed violence in this story, mostly about punches and kicks being dealt out. So if you are too young to be reading these types of stories, then please go no further. Finally, this story takes place in the spring of Kim and Ron's Senior Year of High School. And now onto the story.
It was a typical afternoon in the city of Middleton. Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable had just finished up another long Monday at Middleton High School, and were heading for Bueno Nacho for some afternoon "snackage" as Ron would say. On the way to the fast food hangout, the two long life friends were exchanging in their normal discussion.
"KP this Algebra Study Guide is a major migraine," Ron said while looking at the multiple page homework.
"So not the drama Ron. I'm helping you through it and we'll handle it together," Kim answered while putting her arm around her best friend's shoulder, to show she wouldn't let him down.
'Man, whenever life starts to get hard, Kim is always there to pick me up. God only knows where I'd be without her.' Ron thought to himself.
The two reached Bueno Nacho a few moments later. Kim went to place their orders while Ron found them a seat. Ron took the normal booth that they had taken on as their own since the restaurant had opened years ago. He sat down and pulled out his naked mole rat out is his pocket and placed him on the table. Once he was on the table, Rufus yawned and stretched from sleeping most of the day inside Ron's cargo pants side pocket. After waking up completely, Rufus looked up at his owner, only Ron was in a trance. He had his head resting on his propped up right arm and he was staring at his friend of about fifteen years.
'How did I ever get so luckily to have a friend like Kim? I mean when everyone else in the world just saw me as some freak, or made fun of me, or bullied me. She means so much to me, more than I could ever tell her. No, while she will always be my best friend, I can't risk our friendship by telling her my true feelings for her. She would never want to be anything more than just friends. Or would she? I wonder.'
Rufus knew exactly what Ron was caught up in, but he climbed up onto Ron's shoulder, waved his small hand in front of Ron's face, and slowly whistled. Ron shook his head and snapped back into reality.
"Sorry buddy, I was just...uh...thinking about...uh...the algebra final this week...yeah," Ron answered as he returned back to reality and faced his pet. However, Rufus only shook his head and gave Ron a 'who do you think you're kidding' look. Ron didn't say anything; he just took Rufus and sat him back on the table. Kim then showed up with a platter full of the orders. She took them off one at a time, placed them in front of the owner, and told the order.
"A Grande size Naco for Ron. A Grande size Naco for Rufus. And a normal Chimarino for me."
Kim also placed two medium sized drinks down on the table and then sat down herself.
"Thanks Kim, how much do I owe you?" Ron asked.
"No prob Ron, I got it covered," Kim answered with her normal grin.
"Thanks KP," Ron replied while thinking to himself, 'Perfection, the only word to describe her, just pure perfection.'
A short while after they began eating, Kim asked, after taking a drink, "So Ron any plans for the Prom on Friday."
'Please don't let him have anyone in mind' Kim thought to herself.
Had Ron not been able to control himself in a brief instant, he would have choked on his Naco.
"Nope, just going stag as normal KP" Ron answered, though now starting to feel his heart beating faster. 'That is unless you want to go with me as more than friends' Ron thought.
"What about you KP, anybody asked you"
"So far no takers" Kim answered, 'But I wish you would' she thought.
"Soooo, I guess we go together as friends like before?" Ron asked with just a slight glimmer of hope for something more in his eyes.
Kim took another sip of her drink and answered, "Yeah, sure" 'God why can't I just ask him. He's my best friend, so why can't I just tell him how much he means to me. Maybe because I know he wouldn't want to be anything more than just friends. Or would he? Maybe, after all what does Dad always say, 'Anything's Possible for a Possible'. Okay, that's it I'm going for it'
However, before Kim could open her mouth, a voice came from the entrance, "Hey Kim!" Kim saw who it was, but Ron's back was turned to the entrance, but he still knew that voice. That voice that made his muscles tense and his blood pressure rise. '#&^ Monkey Boy! Why does he always seem to show up?
"Hey Josh," Kim greeted as Josh Mankey walked over to where Kim and Ron were sitting. Kim moved over so that Josh could sit next to her. Josh took his seat, while Ron and Rufus shared a quick glance and concentrated on their Nacos.
"So what are you two up to," Josh asked.
"Well, we were just talking about the Prom this Friday," Kim answered.
"Great, that's what I wanted to talk to you about Kim," Josh replied.
Ron winced and thought 'Oh no please no. Emotional bomb, incoming!
"Has anyone asked you to the Prom yet Kim" Josh asked looking with his grin that sickened Ron.
Kim rubbed her left arm with right hand while she looked at her food and answered, "Well, no but..."
Before she could continue, Josh stepped in and said, "That's great. Then how about you and I go together as a couple?"
'NO! #&^ you Monkey Boy! #&^ you to %^&&! Why don't you go choke on a banana?' Ron thought.
Kim hesitated while she thought, 'No I can't. I want to go with Ron. But I can't risk our friendship but. Oh how do I get myself into these messes.'?
"Actually Josh," Kim started, "Ron and I were going to go together as friends, like we have to all the other dances."
Josh didn't lose momentum; he put his arm around Kim and said, "Aw come on Kim."
Ron saw this and thought 'Touch her again and not even the monkeys will want to be around you.'
Josh then turned to Ron and said, "How about it Ronnie?"
'I hate it when he calls me that' Ron thought.
"How about Kim and I go together this time, hey pal," Josh continued.
Ron looked up and tried to keep his composure as he thought, 'I'm not you pal monkey $%*^.'
Ron tried to look at Kim to tell if she was okay with this or not, but couldn't read anything from her.
"Sure, I mean, I'm sure I can handle this one alone," Ron answered.
"See then everything's set Kim" Josh concluded.
"Yeah...I guess... so," Kim said still not looking at Josh or Ron. 'No! Why do these things have to happen to me? I once thought that going to Prom with Josh would be a dream come true, but now I know that it's not, but if Ron's okay...HOW DO I GET INTO THESE THINGS!' she screamed inside her head.
"Uh Josh, I need to go use the restroom," Kim politely said so that Josh could move as to let Kim out of the booth. He smiled at Kim as she passed him and she managed a fake grin, while thinking, 'why, just why?'
Once Kim was out of view and into the restroom, Josh sat back down and turned to Ron with a face ready to kill.
"We need to talk Stoppable," Josh said in his bullied voice.
Ron raised his head and locked his hating eyes on Monkey Boy and said "About what monkey $%^&?"
Josh reached over; grabbed Ron's shirt pulled him close and said, "I want you to stay away from Kim."
"What?"
"You heard me. She's mine, and I don't want anyone else hanging around her."
"Tough $^#, $$*#&^. Kim and I are best friends and partners in crime fighting."
"Oh please, all you are is a goofy sidekick that can't do anything."
"Really? Well, maybe I need to show you what exactly the Ron Factor can do."
Josh was confused for a second, not knowing about Global Justice's Ron Factor report.
This brief moment of confusion came at the right time. Josh heard the door to the girl's restroom open as Kim started to exit it. He quickly let go of Ron and put his normal grin back on. However, he did manage to squeak, "We're not done Stoppable."
As Kim started back towards the table, she thought to herself, 'I don't want to face this, I much rather face Drakken, Shego, Killigan, Monkey Fist, heck I'll even take Frugal Lucre for that matter.'
Kim got her wish, because just as she reached the table, the all too familiar "beep-beep-beep-beep" sounded. Ron, Rufus, and Kim's heads all looked in direction of her side pocket. Kim reached in and pulled out her Communicator and pressed the button to answer.
"What's the sitch, Wade," Kim asked.
Wade, as normal, appeared on the screen, in his room, at his computer.
"Kim, the Middelton Cryogenics Lab needs you over there now to look into a robbery that they have had," Wade explained.
"Transportation?" Kim asked.
"On its' way" Wade answered.
"We're on it" Ron chimed in as he got up and put Rufus in his pocket.
Wade logged off the Kimmuicator and Kim stuck it back in her pocket. She turned to Josh and said, "Sorry Josh but duty calls."
'Thank goodness' she thought to herself 'Anything but this sitch.'
Ron grinned, put his arm around Kim and said, "Yep, time for Team Possible to go to work."
Kim just grinned at Ron's enthusiasm. 'You got to love his attitude.' She thought.
"No problem. I'll catch you later Kim," Josh said keeping his cool while thinking 'Stoppable you are so dead meat.'
Just then Ron and Kim saw a black SUV pull into the parking lot with the Middleton Cryogenics Logo plastered on the side.
"Well, there's our ride." Kim said, "Let's jet Ron."
Kim started for the door with Ron following.
"Right behind yak KP," Ron said, but before he exited the building he yelled back at Josh, "Later Joshie." Making fun of how Josh tried to get on Ron's nerves by calling him 'Ronnie'.
To be continued...
Author's Note: Okay, I must confess, I'm pleased. Whenever I sit down to start typing out a story, I'm always worried that it's going to turn out really short and pointless. This was no exception, especially since this is my very first attempt at a Kim Possible Fan Fiction. However, once I got to writing, everything just flowed. So what did you think? In case you were wondering, this is going to be a three-parter. I'll get Part Two up soon. thank you for reading and please review.
