KIM'S POV
*S-shego*Shego*
Was I dreaming about her again? Images of Her face flashed in my mind before I was woken up out of my sleep by a hand laid on my shoulder startling me, but thankfully it's just my mom with a very concerned look on her face. Why did she look so worried?
Kim: "mom? Are you okay?" that only caused an even more concerned look on her face then before.
Ann: "I was just about to ask you the same, but of course you beat me to it. you were always like that ya'know, always worried about everyone else. My selfless Kim.
Now she looked on the verge of tears after only a few words I knew she had been worried, but this-this was different. She looked scared.
Kim: "Mom it's okay…look at me I'm alright and I'm not going anywhere, okay?"
Ann: "Y-yeah I know-I know I was really worried about you Kim. I'm just so relieved your okay."
Then she got up out of her seat and hugged me tighter than she'd ever hugged me. I liked it but, I felt the pain instantly after that. Soon after mom called the doctor in, betty also joined she was in the waiting area since this morning. My dad took the twins home earlier. Turns out the fall caused some real damage. I had a broken rib and wrist, bruised skull and fractured ankle but luckily, I'd heal quickly because the breaks were clean, and my body was strong cause of training. The doctor said I just had to take it easy and let my body and the meds work…which sucked because I hate doing nothing which is ironic cause I was doing just that for 2 days straight.
Now that I was sitting up in the hospital bed, I had the chance to examine my surroundings and the flowers were so obvious anyone would notice them. Why were there so many? My mom seemed to read my mind because she outright said,
Ann: "Oh the flowers, some are from your friends and classmates' others from fans and some from the staff who come check-in."
Kim: "Oh wow really, Wait are these my string lights from my room?" they were strung up above my bed only off cause of the sun poring in threw the agape window.
Betty: "Yeah it was Tim and Jim's idea they knew how much you like these things, so Ron helped them set it up."
Oh, oh. I had finally forgotten about what happened and there it was thrown right back in my face like the garbage it was. I guess the disgust showed on my face cause my mom added right after.
Ann: "Kim, Betty told me about what happened the other night. I didn't tell your father about it because I know how he gets but we need to know what happened at Ron's the other night?"
The look I gave betty was a little more than necessary, but I hadn't told her all the details for a reason, but with one returning look I remembered what she had said that night in her car. I couldn't keep shouting the people I love out, it only hurt me more.
Kim: "R-Ron cheated on me, I caught him in his room with another girl."
Saying it out loud was more painful then I thought it would be. I thought I was so over it, but the truth was I still loved him and every time I remembered what he looked like with her it hurt more, and more. I knew he wasn't mine anymore…but I was still his. And I hated that was all I had now. before I even realized tears were rapidly falling down my face, uncontrollably. I couldn't hold it anymore. I'd been hurting myself to keep him from leaving me. I see that now. my mom and betty had already embraced me, and I was weeping between them. I needed to cry but I still felt empty, betrayed, and exiled. My life was falling apart and the only thing keeping me from breaking into a million pieces were the 2 strongest women I knew just….hugging me. I was still here; I was still here.
Ann: "As long as you need us, we'll be here for you." She was crying too. Now that I think about it, my mother has never seen me like this…broken it's a sight to see. The mighty and stoic Kim possible broken over a BOY.
I felt something in my hand I hadn't realized it till now, I was holding it all this time…while I was sleep after I woke up what was it? I opened my hand it-it was a rose. A green rose- how? How'd it get here in my hand. Why was I holding it so tight? I looked around again, it was the only one the only green rose in the room… S-shego? I thought that was another dream!? If she was really her she really gave this to me, she really kissed my forehead and laid next to me….
Ann: "Kimberly, are you okay you look flushed, I'm gonna go get the doctor, Betty-"
Kim: "N-no mom I'm okay, I'm good I promise."
Betty: "You sure she's right you look flushed-"
Kim: "No really I'm okay I just think I'm ready to sleep in my own bed that's all."
Which was true.
Ann: "I'll talk to the doc and see if your ready, but you don't leave till they give the go ahead doctor mom's orders." *laughs*
I genuinely laughed for the first time in a long time. My used to say that when I was little and I got sick and had to stay home from school, I'm not like normal kids, and I still hate doing nothing.
The doctor kept me one more night to monitor my vitals and blood pressure. Tomorrow I was going home.
SHEGO'S POV
I followed the security escort until she safely arrived at her house, I couldn't take the chance that another villain would make a move on Kim while she was weak. It was all my fault she was like this the least I could do was guarantee that nothing happened. I went as far as to have my tech guys hack into the GJ comms so I could listen in too. I was skimming nearby rooftops. it was early morning maybe like 8 or 9 am and these transport cars could really move and GJ made sure they were virtually silent. No engine noise, no tire screeches, just a faint purr from the exhaust.
When the transport finally reached the Possible residents, I was bout ready to go but an audience should never leave a show early. That would be incredibly rude, Right? Oh and was this show gonna be good.
RON'S POV
It all happened in a flash. The last thing I remembered was looking over to see if Kim needed backup, seeing her fall, and then charging at Shego. I didn't think. My legs moved before my mind to could actually comprehend what was happening. What happened? Why did Kim fall, and why did Shego have that look on her face before she knocked my lights out? I'll just have to ask Kim what happened between the two of them when I get the chance—that's assuming she talks to me…after what the other day.
It's been 2 days since the fight at the docks and between the police statements and my mom being pissed at me, this is the only bit of free time I've had so going to see Kim in the hospital is priority number 1 for today. As I pull up to the entrance my car is immediately surrounded by paparazzi from all the local TV stations even from some I don't recognize. When they see all the commotion GJ agents clear a path for me to get inside. As a walk to the crowd I hear the eager questions from the reporters.
Some Rando Journalist: "Ron-Why are you only just visiting Kim possible? Is there trouble in paradise?"
Male Reporter #1: "Ron stoppable, is it true that the villain known as Shego tried to kill Kim Possible?"
Like hell I'd let her kill Kim. Fuck these selfish pricks.
Female Reporter #2: "Mr. Stoppable is true that you and Kim possible are no longer Dating?"
That one statement made me stop in my tracks, I wanted to know who said that and I wanted them to ask me to my face instead of hiding in a crowd like a coward.
Ron: "Screw you-do you get your kicks from prodding in other peoples lives? She's in the hospital for crist sake! You should be ashamed of yourselves!
My voice had risen, and my eyes had begun to water. The outburst had not only shut the prying mouths of the reporters and journalists it had also brought Dr. director right into the thick of it.
Dr. director: "Come on Stoppable, we need to talk. And as for all of you it's been a long day why don't you all go home for the day…please and thank you."
And with that and a strong leading hand on my shoulder the director lead me thru the doors of the hospital and into an eerie feeling of what can only be described as certain death.
