He wasn't supposed to be home for another hour, at least, but they had finished early at work, and Drakken thought it would be a nice surprise for Shego if he could get home to make dinner before nearly nine o'clock at night.
So he didn't tell her he was coming home. Which is probably why she was singing in the shower when he walked through the door.
Drakken grinned to himself as he set his things down by the entrance. He almost never heard Shego sing, the two exceptions being the one time he caught her mumbling an MC Honey song under her breath and the one time she got so drunk at karaoke she did an incredible rendition of Unprodigal Daughter. But she had a beautiful voice, and he was thrilled to hear it.
He hummed along to her song – he had finally identified it as Turning Tables – as he changed out of his lab coat. Finally, the water shut off, and moments later Shego exited the bathroom in a fluffy white robe. She paused at the entrance and said, "You're home."
"Hello to you too, Shego," Drakken teased, kissing her gently.
"Were you … How long have you been here?"
"Why not long at all, Adele."
Shego groaned. "You weren't supposed to hear that."
"I know. But I'm glad I did. I like it when you sing."
She flushed dark green. "Yeah, well."
"You know, we never did do a karaoke duet."
"You'll have to get me way drunk before I even consider that," Shego scoffed, pulling a pair of pants onto the bed.
"I'll even pay for the drinks," Drakken promised.
ThankYouNote:
Karaoke is my favorite thing! In college N and I would do cheep version of Karaoke (so youtube in her apartment) except she doesn't drink so it was her sober and me drunk. However, I still think that combination made some pretty awesome duets.
Also, Asia does karaoke so much better than here in the States. Really putting us to shame. I wish we had a cool karaoke culture. It is one of my favorite things about Drakken, is his weekly karaoke!
Have you had karaoke in other countries? What was it like? Was it far superior? Let us know!
As always, thank you so much for reading this far!
