(A/N: Sorry to leave you in suspense like that, but here's the 3rd and final chapter! Now you can find out if Dudley's okay! Here goes...)

But wait! Dudley's eyelids fluttered, and then he opened his eyes. He didn't know where he was, but he could hear someone crying, and it sounded an awful lot like Kitty. Dudley looked in the direction the sound was coming from, and he saw Kitty's head on his chest, and she was crying. Dudley hated seeing his partner sad, and he slowly lifted a hand and gently stroked her hair, hoping to calm her down.

It didn't take long for Kitty to realize that someone was stroking her hair, and she stopped crying. She knew it wasn't Jerkbait, since he was out like a light, so it had to be Dudley. One look at his open eyes gave Kitty her answer.

"Dudley!" Kitty exclaimed as she hugged Dudley, tears of happiness now streaming down her face. She didn't hug him too tightly, because she remembered Peg telling her that Dudley had been hit in the back of the head and pushed out of his bedroom window.

"Kitty, where are we?" Dudley asked in a weak voice.

"We're at Jerkbait's. That idiot tried to kill you, but I stopped him! I'm just so glad you're alright." Kitty said.

Dudley looked over at the unconscious jerk, and he said, "He probably didn't think you could beat him up."

"That creep thinks that women can't fight! He deserved to be beaten!" Kitty said.

"But it probably won't stop him from making a remark like that again." said Dudley.

"Right. Oh, I can't believe Jerkbait would stoop this low." Kitty said, noticing that Dudley looked pretty bad.

"I hurt all over." Dudley said, clearly in pain.

"I know. I'll get you home, and your mom and I will nurse you back to good health." Kitty said, helping him up.

"But what about the party?" Dudley asked.

"Dudley, you're in no fit state to go." Kitty said, leading Dudley out to the T.U.F.F. Mobile.

"You can still go." Dudley said.

"I'm not going without you. Besides, there will be other parties, and your well-being is more important than a party." Kitty said.

"Okay..." Dudley said as Kitty helped him into the T.U.F.F. Mobile.

When they got to Dudley's house, Peg came out to help Kitty help Dudley into the house. There they put him to bed and helped him as best they could.

Sometime before midnight, Peg decided to get some sleep, but Kitty stayed by Dudley's side, unable to leave him. Dudley and Kitty just talked, and when it was midnight, Dudley and Kitty kissed each other and wished each other a happy new year. And it was a happy new year for the both of them.

The End

Well, that's it. Sorry this chapter was so short, but I hope this fic was okay!
