Chapter 4
I glanced at the clock, seeing it was one in the afternoon and started to panic. Mom knew I was normally home before ten but I glanced at my phone and seen no missed calls.
"Afternoon, and don't worry, it's still about seven at night in Middleton. Are you hungry?" Shego asked. I had forgotten were I was and before I could answer her, my stomach growled and I looked away with a blush creeping on my face from embarrassment. "I'll take that as a yes." She walked out of the room and came back with a plate.
"Is that a pizza?" I asked looking at it, though I didn't care, I could eat just about anything right now.
"No actually, it's a ham and cheese quiche. Hope you like it." She said, bringing it over to me. I glanced at her and wondered why she always had to look exotic, like something you want to have but can never have it. She had some shorts on and a tank top, she looked stunning but then again I doubt that she could wear the worst clothes and not look good it them. "So, I think I know you well enough not to ask what's wrong so how about after you eat we can go do something. What do you think?"
I nodded my head and took a bite, wanting to moan. It was delicious. "Damn this is great; I didn't know you could cook so well."
She grinned, "You never asked." She said casually.
"Never pictured you the romantic type, you know breakfast in bed?" Shego laughed and it was intoxicating.
"Actually since its lunch it doesn't count." I just grinned and continued eating, silence hung in the air but it wasn't an awkward silence so I welcomed it.
I finished eating and got up and stretched, fully aware as her eyes stared as my shirt rode up my stomach. "So what did you have planned today?" I asked, snapping her out of her daze.
"Well nothing really, but since you're here we can go out and sight see, you seem like a nature person." I nodded my head, thinking this whole thing seemed like a dream until I started to realize I smelled like sweat. Just freaking great!
"Umm yeah Shego I'm sorry about your sheets, you could have just laid me down on a couch or something."
She shook her head, "It's fine, I'll put them in the washer while we're out. I would suggest a shower right quick but you'll probably just get sweaty again by the time we get back." I blushed again even though she said nothing in that teasing tone. She's going to be the death of me I thought to myself.
As we walked through the house, I took in my surroundings, it felt different, but the nice different and as soon as I walked out the door, I could understand why she would want to live here. The trees were really tall so as the light from the sun shined down, it created a slight curtain of gold and I stood there in the shadow of the porch watching as Shego turned around once again melting my heart with her smile. She shined like an angel. "You coming princess." She said gently and I nodded and followed her.
We walked in the woods side by side in silence, each of us looking at the trees, the grass, everything. I wanted to take her hand but I didn't. I wasn't scared of the world but I was scared to reach for her hand?
"What's wrong?" she asked looking at me.
I shook my head, surprised. "Nothing why?"
Shego just smiled softly, "You just had a frown on your face."
I smiled, wondering why life just couldn't be like this all the time but I knew it was impossible. "I was just thinking, sorry my mind keeps wondering off."
She nodded and look lost in thought for a second. "Let's go for a run, think you can keep up?"
"Always." And she took off, me following her closely. Dodging trees, jumping over falling logs, felt like a rush. We ran for about ten minuets and because my eyes were only on her, I didn't notice that we was nearing the tree line, didn't notice that a beach was coming into view. But she stopped suddenly and I almost ran into her. Both of us were trying to catch our breath and as I looked around, noticing the most perfect beach I had ever seen, I laughed. I couldn't help it and Shego joined me. I had no idea what was so funny.
"It is beautiful here." I said. Glancing around, I didn't see anyone around.
"You want to talk?" Shego asked and I shook my head. I didn't want to talk, just wanted to be here and not think of anything, not worry.
"No, I come here and I'm around you, and not just here but when I'm around you, I don't think. I don't have to worry about anything Shego." I knew I was rambling but she cut me off.
"My name is actually Shayna." She said quietly that I almost didn't hear her. I tested the name on my lips and it sounded perfect to me. "If you tell anyone, and that includes nerdlinger and your boyfriend, I won't hesitate to fry your ass." She said defensively.
"I won't and besides Ron isn't my boyfriend anymore." I said bitterly but I guess she took it the wrong way.
"Every relationship has problems, you can probably fix things and it will be better then before, you know?"
I laughed slightly, "It isn't like that. He thinks it's because Bonnie kissed him, but it wasn't. The next day after that, he wanted to take our relationship to another level and I realized that I couldn't do it, so I broke it off with him and now he thinks I'm lying when I say im not attracted to guy like that." I watched as her face turned from impassive to angry.
"You want me to rough him up a little? It wouldn't be a problem and I would even do it for free." She offered and what made it funny was that she was completely serious.
"No, it's better this way. If he can't deal with it then he isn't the friend I thought he was."
It grew quite and the warm sun heated my body and it felt good. Shego broke the silence again. "Do your parents know?"
I nodded. "Yeah they are actually supportive of the whole thing."
"Then you're lucky, some people aren't so tolerate."
I glanced at her, she had one of those sad looks on her face again and I hated it. "Is that how it was when you told your family?"
"It didn't really matter what my parents thought, they left us when we got our powers so it didn't matter, however my brother's weren't so happy about it, except from Wego."
"Do you miss them?" I couldn't stop myself from asking.
She nodded, started to stretch and took off her shoes. "Want to go for a swim?"
I didn't answer, instead just kicked off my shoes and socks. I watched to see if she was going to take off her shirt and shorts but I didn't have to wait long and I did the same. She looked at me with that evil glint in her eye and all of the sudden I was being picked up like a sack of potatoes. I yelled at her playfully and as we got closer to the water she didn't put me down like I suspected, but kept walking until the water was up to her stomach and then tossed me in.
She laughed as I came up, soaking wet and I glared at her. She looked like she was about to apologize but I lunged at her, taking her down with me. Her hair was wet and clung to her face, just like mine and as we swam there, laughing, I didn't realize how close we actually were and then there was no laughter, just us.
"I'm not the person you think I am Kim." She said as I got closer. Our faces here a few centimeters apart but to me it was too far.
"I don't care." It was all I said as I cupped her face and crashed my lips to hers. I prayed this wasn't a dream but that thought left my mind as she wrapped her arm around me, bringing us as close as humanly possible.
Shego opened her mouth slightly and my tongue met hers. My stomach was invaded with butterflies and I felt light headed, but I didn't care anymore. Everything around us disappeared, including the world and I clung to her, wanting this moment to never end.
