Cry
Kim hadn't seen Shego in a while in person. In fact, it had probably been a year since they saw each other. She hugged the green woman and was surprised Shego didn't feel as solid as she did last time. It wasn't that her friend was fat-she was far from it, actually. She just wasn't a solid thing of muscle anymore. It was strange, and Kim had to keep herself from cringing at the touch of the skinny arms that reluctantly went around her waist as well has the tiny back she felt.
The beauty that was Shego was replaced with prettiness. Instead of a rough exterior, she had a softer one despite her sharp, feminine jawline. Her breasts seemed smaller, and Kim knew she lost weight along with muscle mass. She pulled away from Shego and forced a smile, realizing that life had gotten in the way. Both of them were growing up, so to speak.
She knew Shego was busy with her life to keep her mind occupied. Since she couldn't get a job dealing with extreme situations (Dr. Director thought it best she stay away from Global Justice), she decided to focus on other things. Besides, she had said, there wasn't a point to fighting anyway if she couldn't fight Kim for a year when she went to Germany to study abroad.
And then, Kim caught herself in the mirror. She, too, was thinner and her muscles were deteriorating to something that only a toned girl would have. Had college been that distracting? Kim looked at Shego again, seeing that she probably went down two or three pants sizes, and cried.
Parents
It was weird that these were her parents. He stared at the picture of the tall man in a suit. He looked as if he was admirable, his posture that of a rich man, he thought. The man stood proudly beside his wife, who looked to be much younger than her husband. Her blonde hair and greenish blue eyes contrasted with his dark brown hair and brown eyes. He shivered when he studied the woman's face and he noted she was just too thin. Her cheeks were slightly sunken in, and her legs were just too tiny to be real.
He noticed how the woman was slightly leaning her body away from her husband. She had this sad look to her eyes, and he wondered why she was so sad. He didn't like it when other people weren't happy. "They were awful people," the woman in the room said before snatching the photo away from him.
"Looks are deceiving," he said to her before standing up. "What did they do?"
"They hurt me in every way someone could hurt a person."
"I should have known. My parents? They neglect me all the time," he shrugged.
"Whatever. I didn't need them; I don't need them."
"Me either. But, Shego, why do…why do we still love them?" She didn't have an answer for the blond and she just murmured.
"Let's get some ice cream from the freezer, Stoppable."
Desk
Dr. Drakken was pacing back and forth, trying to figure out what to do with all this free time. He wasn't used to this whole not working weekends thing. When he was a villain, he seemed to always be working including holidays. Why couldn't he just sit still like Shego and just be lazy and sit on the couch and watch movies for twelve hours? He had tried to do that earlier with her, but it was just boring. She had even put in a good movie from the 1940s! He was so desperate that he even wished he was Ron Stoppable for a moment as he was the person who could literally sit there and do absolutely nothing for days!
The blue man sighed. Maybe he just wasn't cut out for a normal job. He wished for his mind to stop working at maximum capacity. He acknowledged the fact that he was indeed a genius so minimal thinking wasn't ever possible. Dr. Drakken reluctantly sat at his desk, doing extra paperwork.
Socks
"I want this really nice necklace for Christmas," Kim announced and showed Shego the catalogue. She stared at the picture of the sapphire bracelet on silver; Kim thought it was the prettiest thing she had ever seen.
"It's tacky," Shego said, scrunching up her nose and making a disgusted face.
"And why is that?" Kim asked her, insulted.
"Because just look how big the sapphire is on that thing. It's too big for the size of the bracelet," Shego explained, then turned back to her own magazine. Kim crossed her arms and glared at the green woman even though she wasn't looking at her.
"So, what do you want for Christmas?" Kim asked her with an annoyed tone. "Something green or black?"
"No, I think I want socks," Shego replied casually as she flipped the page of her magazine. "And, by the way, your attempt at being nasty was just awful. Never, ever try it again, Cupcake. Leave it to the professionals."
Bra
Dr. Drakken thought he was doing a good thing when he decided to do Shego's laundry for her. He had never done it before, but he figured since she cleaned up the mess Commodore Puddles left on the kitchen floor, the least he could do was help her out.
He had taken Shego's laundry basket and began to sort through everything. He tried hard not to look at her underwear and picked it up quickly, tossing it into one of the piles of his own laundry he sorted earlier. However, when he picked up one of her bras, he was curious. Of course, he had to pretend it wasn't her bra for a moment.
Drakken was surprised that her bra was a medium blue, and when he touched it, it was silky. It had some lace on it, too. He hesitantly touched the left bra cup and found that it was very squishy; there was quite a lot of padding on the bottom. The bra felt a little heavier than he imagined, and he kind of sympathized for the women who had to wear these. He looked at her size and found that she was a 34-B. Funny, he had thought she'd be at least a C or D. But then he realized the padding was there to make them appear to be two sizes bigger and he wondered if Shego was insecure of her true breast size. "If you want to be creepy, do that somewhere else."
"Shego-I…" he couldn't think of anything to say; what did one say in this situation?
"Never, ever go through my stuff. Ever," she said threateningly, her hands glowing green. He knew it was coming right before she started yelling at him as he ran out the bedroom door, still holding her bra.
Thank you, zzzoo99, for choosing the word "parents". Hope you liked it!
