(A/N: Okay, now Dudley and Kitty will be reunited. I'm going to get this chapter started so you don't have to wait any longer!)

Since Kitty returned on a Saturday, she was able to relax quite a bit on Sunday. It also gave her and Katrina the opportunity to catch up on each other's lives.

When Monday morning came, Kitty and Katrina got up, ate breakfast, got dressed, and drove to work.

"So, how does it feel to be returning to work?" Katrina asked.

"It feels great! I'm going to do something I enjoy, rather than attending boring meetings and signing stupid documents I was never able to read!" Kitty grinned, and she and Katrina laughed together.

When they arrived at T.U.F.F., they went straight to the Chief's office.

"Kitty! You're back?! I thought you and Eric were supposed to live happily ever after in Kitaly. What happened?" the Chief asked, surprised to see Kitty.

"Eric and I couldn't make it work because we knew next to nothing about the other. And we saw each other less and less because royal life isn't all it's cracked up to be. So we divorced." Kitty said.

"I'm sorry to hear that. So, are you here to get your job back? 'Cause if that's the case, I'll be glad to re-hire you." the Chief said.

"Yes. Am I still allowed to work with my sister and Dudley?" Kitty asked.

"Of course, and I'm sure Katrina already mentioned that Dudley's brother is working here, too, as their partner." the Chief said.

"I told her." Katrina replied.

"Good. In that case, welcome back to T.U.F.F." the Chief said, handing Kitty her badge.

"Thanks, Chief." Kitty replied.

Then Kitty and Katrina exited the Chief's office, and the Chief started reading yet another one of his tiny romance novels.

Once the girls were back in the main office, Katrina looked around for a moment before spotting Dudley and Bruce, who were hard at work in their cubicles.

"There they are. Let's go!" Katrina said, grabbing Kitty's arm and pulling her over to the brothers.

"They're going to be surprised." Kitty whispered to Katrina.

"I know." Katrina whispered back.

"Hey guys!" Katrina greeted as she stood behind the brothers.

The brothers turned to see Katrina. They couldn't see Kitty, 'cause Katrina was in front of her.

"Hi, Katrina," Dudley greeted.

"What's up, Katrina?" Bruce asked.

"I brought someone I'd like you both to meet." Katrina replied.

"Who is it?" Dudley asked.

"Let's meet this person." said Bruce.

Katrina stepped aside, and Dudley and Bruce saw Kitty.

"Well, I'll be!" said Bruce, surprise in his voice.

"Kitty! Is it really you?" Dudley asked, shocked beyond belief.

"Yes, Dudley. I'm back." Kitty replied, readying herself for his reaction.

Dudley leaped up and hugged Kitty tightly, tighter than he did when he told her he missed her in the episode "Dog Daze".

"I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" Dudley exclaimed.

"I can't breathe..." Kitty gasped, not prepared for the way he reacted.

"Sorry..." Dudley replied, loosening his grip.

Once Kitty caught her breath, she hugged Dudley back and said, "I missed you too."

Dudley felt a spark in his heart when he felt Kitty hugging him back. He felt better than he had in a long time.

"Hey, Kitty. Do you remember me?" Bruce asked, holding out his hand.

"Bruce! It's great to see you again!" Kitty said, taking his hand.

"So, what brings you back to Petropolis?" Bruce asked as he and Kitty shook hands.

"Yeah, I thought you and Eric were going to be ruling Kitaly for the rest of your lives." Dudley said.

"I wasn't cut out for the royal life. Plus, Eric and I knew nothing about one another. I was also starting to miss life here in Petropolis." Kitty explained.

"I'm sorry your marriage didn't work out, Kitty. But it's so good to see you again." Dudley said, still unable to believe his partner had returned.

"It feels good to be back." Kitty replied, smiling.

At break time, Dudley noticed something else about Kitty.

"I see you're wearing your half of our 'Best Partners' necklace." Dudley said.

"I actually put it back on after my shower the night Eric and I divorced." Kitty told him.

"You also wore it every day before the wedding." Dudley pointed out.

"I did, because I usually feel naked without it." Kitty said.

"Even when you're dressed?" Dudley asked.

"Yes, Dudley. Even then." Kitty replied.

By the end of the day, Dudley, Bruce, Kitty, and Katrina had stopped bad guys faster than ever, and Dudley hadn't wanted to leave Kitty's side. It was no easier for him when it was time to go home.

"It's time to go already?!" Dudley asked.

"Yes, Dudley. Come on, we've gotta go home." Bruce said.

"Aww, but I don't wanna leave Kitty. She just got back, and I really missed her." Dudley said.

"Dudley, you'll see me tomorrow." Kitty assured him.

"I know, but... I felt so lonely, even though I had Katrina and Bruce to work with during the months you were away." Dudley said.

"I know, Dudley. But I'm back to stay." Kitty assured him.

After several more minutes, Dudley reluctantly left Kitty's side.

"See you tomorrow, Dudley." Kitty promised as she and Katrina drove home.

"I'll see you then, Kitty." Dudley replied as he and Bruce made their way home.

And so ends Kitty's first day back. Dudley was over the moon upon seeing Kitty. Stay tuned, 'cause there will be DudleyXKitty moments coming up!
