A couple nights passed before Kim found the need to talk to someone. It wasn't her boyfriend who had her in a grumpy mood this time, but her enemy, Shego.
The green-skinned villain had sent her flying into a trash bin and it'd taken her an hour and a half in the shower to remove the stench.
When she plopped down in front of her computer there were 17 people online, one name popping out. She sent and IM to the person and a reply came back almost immediately.
KimPossible: Hey Selene, how's it going?
SG: Not so great.
KimPossible: You too?
SG: Does that mean your day has been pretty bad?
KimPossible: Well… my arch-foe Shego kicked me into the trash. It took me forever to get that junk off of me. I felt nauseous with that stench floating around me until I got home. I mean seriously! I can't stand that woman! She just continuously pushes my buttons!
SG: Did you win the fight?
KimPossible: Well… yeah, but still!
SG: Oh? And how'd you win?
KimPossible: I… managed to take back what she was stealing and land a good hit. So why's your day bad?
SG: My boss is ranting on and on about how I failed his expectations and shit. I mean, I've stopped caring, but his whining is so annoying.
KimPossible: Aren't you afraid you'll be fired?
SG: Nah. He needs me. And anyways, that's not the main reason I'm in a bad mood.
KimPossible: What happened to you?
SG: My girlfriend actually dumped me first.
KimPossible: What?! How'd that happen?
SG: For once I actually thought it would last longer. I guess it was my job. She just doesn't believe me when I say there's nothing between me and my boss. People always think there's something there, but there isn't damn it! It pisses me off every time someone insinuates it! The one time my boss actually did something right with his life and was rewarded for it he thought it made everything better and he had a fucking chance with me. I immediately rejected him, but he did something in public that I couldn't just blow up in his face about or else I'd probably have gotten a dock in my pay for making him look like an even bigger idiot. Then he fell off the wagon again. The only reason I stick with him is for the money. No other reason! I really wish people would stop assuming things.
KimPossible: That… sounds unfair.
SG: Oh you have no idea.
KimPossible: So are you going to try to get her back?
SG: No.
KimPossible: Why?
SG: If she seriously thinks that there is something between my boss and I and breaks up with me for it, then that means she has a problem trusting me. I don't want us to go back to dating just for her to be suspicious the next time she sees me asking a waitress for the bill. Believe me; she already went off on me about checking out some woman's ass while she was right there.
KimPossible: Were you?
SG: Was I what?
KimPossible: Checking out the girl
SG: Pffft. No way Kimmie. I don't check people out when I'm dating. That leads to problems. And it apparently leads to problems if it even LOOKS like I MIGHT be checking someone out.
KimPossible: That sucks.
SG: You have no idea.
Kim's attention was pulled away from her screen as there was a knock on the door.
KimPossible: Sorry, I have to run. My boyfriend is here to take me out to dinner.
SG: Still having second thoughts?
She was silent for a moment before finally responding.
KimPossible: Yeah. I still am.
Then she logged off and made sure her make-up and hair looked nice, grabbing her purse and heading out to dinner.
