Chapter Five:

That afternoon Ron was jumping inside. He was so happy! About Angel and all. He was in such a good mood, since school was almost over before they left for the vacation, and Angel thought he was sweet. She's said so. No girl had ever said that about him before, except Kim, and she was totally platonic so it didn't count. His mood was so great that he did something very strange and unpredictable.

Ron was rushing down the hall toward sixth period when he slammed right into someone.

It turned out to be Angel. "So we meet again?" Angel asked playfully.

"Yeah.y-yeah something like that," Ron stuttered. He reached out a hand to help her up. She took it, and he pulled her to her feet. He could feel his face burning at her touch.

"I haven't seen you in a while. What have you been up to?" she asked. Ron flushed.

"Not much," he mumbled. He was hopeless. He was blushing and she'd just asked a friendly question.

"Me either. I just moved here and this place is already boring. Barkin's classes are the worst," she said.

"Yeah. Tell me about it. Hey, what's funny is if you call him 'Stevie'. I do that a lot. He acts so tough but he really doesn't like to be called stuff. Gets him really tweaked," Ron said.

Angel laughed. "That sounds like fun. Might spice up his classes a little," she said.

"Yeah, maybe, if anything can. Man that guy's so boring that a kid could die in class and he wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the dead one and the ones who were listening," Ron said. He wasn't blushing anymore.

Angel laughed again. "You know what, you're really funny," Angel said, still giggling. Ron went extremely red again.

"Nobody else ever said that. They call me a loser," Ron said.

"Well, I'm not everybody else," Angel said smiling. Ron's heart flipped over. It did whenever her facial expressions changed even, especially if it was a smile.

"Hey I wanted to ask you something. Will you... Will- uh- do you- you..wanna hang out at Bueno Nacho with us again after school?" Ron asked. He hated himself for chickening out. He had been going to ask her out.

Angel grinned. "I'd really like that," she said.

"Great. See you then!" Ron said, taking off. He got his gym clothes out of his locker and ran to the gym.

A while later Kim and Ron were talking as their gym class ran laps.

"So, did you ask her?" Kim asked.

"Break!" Barkin yelled, and they stopped to rest.

"Almost. I wasn't brave enough. I'll never be able to do it," Ron said, catching his breath after running. Kim smiled at her best friend. He was so shy, shyer than any other guy she knew. "Don't worry Ron," Kim said, brushing Ron's sweaty bangs back from his face gently. "You can do it,"

Ron smiled back. "I hope so," he said skeptically, looking down at his gym sneakers.

"You will Ron. I'm sure of it. You're brave," Kim said. Ron hoped she was right. He hoped he was brave enough.

That day after school, Ron got to Bueno Nacho and slid into the usual booth. He waited alone for a time. Then he heard somebody sit down beside him. He looked up. "Hi Angel," he said.

"Hi Ron," she said. Ron blushed again. They were alone in the booth.

"Hey Angel, I wanted to. ask you a question," Ron said.

"Go ahead," Angel said, sipping a soda.

"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to.I mean, uh..will you-will you go out with me?" Ron asked. He closed his eyes. It was easier to take rejection that way, he had learned from experience. He hated to see the disgusted look on the girl's face. But then he felt something on his cheek. A kiss. He blushed more rapidly.

"Seriously?" she asked.

"Well-yeah," Ron said shyly.

"Of course I'll go out with you," Angel said. Ron opened his eyes. Angel looked genuinely surprised.

"What? Oh man don't say yes if- I don't mean you have to- just say no if you-"Ron began, but Angel shushed him.

"No it's not that at all. I want to. It's just that, well, at my old school, I was a loser. No one ever asked me out. Not ever once. I could never get a date for the dances and, I don't know why I'm telling you this, I must sound so stupid, but anyway. Well, it just surprised me. I mean, never in my life. Just- all the perfect girls got asked out and I-I was a buffoon. I was never perfect like them," Angel said.

Ron was surprised. "You're perfect to me," Ron said.

"Ron, you are the sweetest guy I've ever met in my life. I-" she began. But she stopped and kissed his forehead. Ron went a very deep shade of red and scooted away from her a little. He knew he had a goofy grin on his face, but was too happy to care. Just then Kim and Monique showed up.

"What's up?" Kim asked as she sat down.

"Not much. You?" Ron asked.

"Nothing," Kim said, picking up a chimmurito. Ron looked down at his naco, and wore a secret little smile. Nobody, nobody else in the whole wide world, knew that Ron Stoppable had an honest-to-goodness girlfriend.
