Alright, and here it is: the ultimate fluffy chapter. Well, to a point. Read it and see.


The next few days went by slowly for Kim. Ron had been called in to Smarty Mart to deal with a rogue hermit crab that had gotten out of its cage. Kim had absolutely nothing to do while Ron was at work. When he was off work, he was so wiped out from chasing the crab, he fell straight asleep. Then, the next day, he woke up and did the exact same thing. Kim called Wade every few hours to check up on the missing tablet, but he had hit a dead end. She had become so bored that she decided to hang out with the Tweebs Friday night. This consisted of the two boys converting a toaster into a rocket-powered space probe while Kim tried not to get blown up.

Saturday afternoon, Ron finally got off. He and Rufus had been chasing the hermit crab around Smarty Mart for two days, and finally caught a break when it ran out of energy from lack of food.

"Do you know how fast a hermit crab can run?" Ron asked as he collapsed on Kim's couch.

"Faster than you?" Kim curled up next to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Uh, yeah? The thing was like a cheetah! A two inch-long cheetah!" Ron huffed.

"Aw, it couldn't have been that bad."

"You know Rufus fell asleep as soon as we got home today because of how tired he was? Rufus never gets tired. And do you know where it was when we found it?" Kim shrugged. "It was on top of a 64" TV. How does a hermit crab get on top of a TV? A huge TV at that!" Ron paused. "Anyway, I'm sorry KP."

"For what?" Kim sat up.

"Bailing on you the last two days."

"That? So not the drama, Ron. I was fine here, alone. I... uh... caught up on a lot of TV I had missed."

"Sounds fun." Ron smiled. "But, tonight's your last night here. What do you want to do?"

"Hmm… I don't know. How about you choose?"

"I've been choosing for the past week. It's your turn." Ron said, slouching even lower on the couch.

"Alright. Well, how about…" Kim thought hard. Then, a genius idea popped into her head. "Let's go to Bueno Nacho."

"Wait, what? I thought you didn't…" Ron sat up in surprise.

"Well, yeah, but I miss it. And anyway, you look like you could use some Nacoliciousness." Kim kissed Ron on the cheek and stood up.

"Oh, Kim. I love you!" Ron stood up himself and wrapped his arms around Kim's waist, pulling her into a deep kiss. "Let's go!"

Kim and Ron made their way to Bueno Nacho in Kim's car. When they arrived, they went inside and were greeted happily by Ned, the manager. "Welcome to Bueno… Ron! Hey! Is that… Kim?" Kim gave Ned a smile. "What can I do for you guys?"

"I'll have four Nacos, a Quesarito, and a Tortata salad. Extra cheese. Kim?"

"Uh, just a salad and a small soda." Kim said.

"Alright, coming right up." And sure enough, in little under a minute, their food was ready. Ron paid and they took their food to a nearby booth. Sitting down, Kim and Ron were flooded with memories of their past. For years they had gone to Bueno Nacho. They talked about everything in those booths. To be back again, for the first time since Kim left, they both felt like a hole in their lives had been filled. While they ate, the sat back and talked, as the used to, about anything they could think of. They spent hours talking about everything. Kim told Ron more about college in Paris and about how she was getting along with having to learn French. She also talked about, much to Ron's discomfort, the number of French boys who always hung around her, trying to win her heart in extremely fancy, albeit unsuccessful ways. Kim would say that her boyfriend in America was a hundred times cuter and a thousand times sweeter, but good try. This made Ron smile.

"It's only 'cause their jealous. They just want to get with Kim Possible. But, too bad. Ron Stoppable beat them to her!" Kim laughed so hard, her soda almost came out of her nose.

After they had finished eating, they went back to Ron's house. Ron felt bad that they hadn't invited Rufus, but they realized that he was still probably passed out on Ron's bed. He decided to leave Rufus the leftovers for when he woke up.When they got to Ron's house, they noticed it was empty. Ron found a piece of paper on the kitchen table that read, "Took Hana to ice skating class, be back around 10."

"Do you think they'll ever realize that a toddler can't ice skate? Well, maybe Hana can. Being a ninja baby and all. But normal toddlers definitely can't skate." Ron flopped onto his bed, waking Rufus.

"Maybe they're banking on the fact that she is a ninja baby. I think she'd be a pretty awesome figure skater." Kim sat next to him. Rufus got up and climbed off the bed.

"Hey, Rufus. There's a Naco and a Quesarito left downstairs for you." Ron said, pointing downstairs. Rufus perked up and bolted down the attic steps and through the house.

"So, Ron… It looks like this is it." Kim turned her head towards Ron. He hadn't looked away from the door. He knew this was coming: the end of Kim's vacation; Ron's return to reality. He didn't want it to end. He wanted her to stay, wanted her to forget about college and come back to Middleton for good.

"Yeah, I guess so. The last night. You know, it came a lot faster than I thought it would." Ron kept looking away. "I don't want to say goodbye, Kim. That's not really my style. I'd prefer if we never had to say it. We shouldn't have to. I mean, why do you have to go back to Paris? It'd be so much simpler if you just stayed here."

"No, Ron, it wouldn't. I know how much you want me to stay. I mean, I want to stay. But, our future is the most important thing right now. Listen, I'm not going to get anywhere by dropping out of college. No matter how much I'd rather be here, this isn't where my life wants to go. We'll always have each other, you should know that. No goodbye is forever. Not when anything is possible." Ron heard Kim choke up a bit when she said this. He turned around and looked into Kim's eyes. They were lined with tears.

"Kim, I… I don't mean give up your future. I'd never want you to do that. I just wish there was a way for us to be able to be like old times. And… And right now, I don't know how I can survive without you."

"Ron, remember what I said three months ago? About how I always want to be able to help if I'm needed. Well, I know how much I'm needed here. How much you need me. I know how much I need you. I agree with you, Ron. I'd love nothing more than to just be able to come home and have you there waiting for me. I don't want to leave either. But I have to. This is how it has to be. Just for a little while longer, anyway." Kim placed her hand on Ron's cheek.

"KP, I'm sorry I'm getting so emotional. This is your last night, we should be having fun, not moping around." There was a silence. Ron ran his fingers across Kim's collar, tracing the necklace he gave her. "Do you remember our first kiss?"

"Junior prom? Yeah. I remember it took Rufus to get you to finally ask me to dance." Kim laughed as the tears slowly built up.

"Yeah. I was pretty nervous. My hands were really sweaty."

"Yeah, they were, but it's ok. I didn't really notice."

"And when you hugged me, I was kinda surprised. But in a good way. It was probably the greatest feeling I had ever felt before." Ron lifted his hand to Kim's face and softly wiped her tears away.

"You smiled, and I stared into your eyes." Kim looked into Ron's eyes, just as she had that night. "To be honest, I was pretty nervous myself. I felt like I had to try extra hard because you were my best friend. I didn't want to disappoint you." Kim's voice had become a whisper.

"KP, you've never had to try…" Ron's voice trailed off as he moved his head closer to Kim's, brushing his lips against hers. "You were always perfect."

Kim looked at Ron who was sporting the exact same expression he had that night: his goofy smile highlighted by a hint of content in his eyes. She smiled back and threw her arms around him, pulling him into a deep, passionate kiss. Ron fell back onto his bed and Kim followed. She pressed her body against Ron's, deepening the kiss. Ron's arms found their way around Kim's waist, his hands resting on the small of her back. Kim pulled away for air and rolled over so they were on their sides, facing each other.

"Kim, I love you." Ron whispered as he fingered Kim's necklace again. Kim reached up and held the pendant in her hand.

"I know." She kissed Ron again. He rolled over, his upper body now on top of hers while his legs dangled off the edge of the bed. They continued kissing, letting their love and passion flow through their lips. Kim moved her hands up Ron's back, massaging away any worry he had from only moments ago. Ron let his hands wander, moving slowly down the outside of her leg and up again to her waist, lingering at the edge of her shirt. Kim didn't even flinch. He slowly, softly moved his fingers under the fabric and again to her waist. He lifted his head away from hers and looked into her eyes. Those green eyes told him everything he needed to know. That, and the kiss that followed, threw out whatever inhibitions he had left.

Rufus, who had just finished with his Bueno Nacho meal that Ron had provided, began to scurry his way up the stairs, back to his bed for some much deserved sleep. When he reached the door to the attic, he stopped. Rufus knew Ron and Kim were in Ron's room, and something told him he should just leave them be. He had respect for Ron, and didn't want to interrupt any big important conversations that the couple was having on their last night together. And he especially didn't want to walk in on them making out. Humans had a funny way of showing affection. Rufus didn't understand how the idea of swapping saliva with each other was affectionate. If it were Rufus in Ron's shoes, he'd give Kim a wheel of cheese. Nothing says "I love you" like a big slab of Gouda. But, it seemed like whatever Ron had been doing for the last year and a half had been working pretty well for him. Kim was still around, that was for sure. Rufus scampered down the stairs again and curled up on the couch in the living room. He'd wait until Kim left, and then return to his bed. It shouldn't be too long. Kim had a flight in the morning and Ron's family was going to be home soon. Yup. Ron better hurry it up with whatever he wanted to say to Kim. Rufus wanted his bed back.


So there it is. I really hope people don't flame me for this. I tried to keep everything as clean as possible. Anyway, review and stuff. And be nice. Next chapter: "Goodbye Again?" should be up sometime soon.
