Disclaimer: I don't own KP. I just read 'the Night I Died' and it was soooooooooooo sad! Wahh! Poor poor peeps in da story. Great story through. Oh well.

Kim looked at Ron, and he looked right back. Suddenly, of all the things that could have happened, Ron started to cry.

"Ron what-"

"I don't even know who I am anymore KP! It's so weird. And I have this feeling it's like....well yeah!"

"What feeling?"

"Just a feeling"

"Which is?"

"But I can't say-"

"What is it Ron? You can tell me?"

"OK, but do you promise you won't hit me?"

"Of course."

"OK." Ron leaned a little closer. "I uh....um....I....."

"Yes?"

And then Ron began to speak, in a barely audible whisper, that Kim could just only grasp, Ron said, "Love."

"Huh?"

"I'm in love."

"But you've been-"

"It's not Angel."

"What? Ron but she's-"

"It's someone else."

"It's not Bonnie is it?"

"No."

"Tara?"

"No."

"Monique?"

"No way."

"Ross?"

"No."

"I give up."

"A girl."

"Which girl? You're keeping me in suspense pal."

"Well..."

"Well what?"

"She's pretty. And she's nice. And she has a boyfriend."

"Is that bad?"

"Not sure. She's nice, and she has soft hair. And she kissed me."

"Oh?"

"Yes."

"Well, who?"

"She smiles a lot. And she's in love with someone else."

"That's no good."

"Yeah."

"Who is it?"

"I kissed her in the rain."

"Really?"

"Uh-huh."

"Well, who?"

"She has red hair."

"Then it's Amy?"

"Nope."

"Hmmm... Nikki?"

"Noppers."

"But Ron there isn't any more red haired girls except-"

"Except who?"

"m-....m-me."

"Oh really?"

"Ron are you-?"

"I dunno, am I?" and Ron put his head under the blanket.

"Are there any red haired girls I didn't mention?"

"Nope."

"Then it's one of the ones I said?"

"Duh." Ron's voice was slightly muffled, and Kim sensed he was staying under there to avoid her gaze.

"Which one.?"

"That's for me to know."

"And me to find out?"

"Depends."

"On what?"

"Feelings."

"What do you mean, 'feelings'?"

"Exactly what I said."

"But what do you mean? There's no more girls with red hair."

"You said so yourself. YOU have red hair."

"But it's not me."

"Maybe it's not."

"And maybe it is?"

"Could be."

"Ron, is this just some way of beating around the bush so you don't have to say that it's.....me you're in love with?"

"Could be."

"Ron, if you're going to say it just say it."

"Say what?"

"You know what I mean! Fine, I'LL say it!" Kim said finally. Ron was being difficult.

"Say what?" Ron asked. Kim grinned and pulled him close enough so she could whisper in his ear.

"Say that I love you."

"But you don't."

"Never said that I didn't."

"So do you?"

"Maybe."

"Maybe?"

"Yes."

"How am I supposed to find out?"

"Tell me if you love ME."

"That's all?"

"Yup, that's about it."

"But I can't-"

"Oh, are you too scared?"

"No."

"Then what?"

"I can't say it because it's embarrassing that I'm in love with you. I mean- oops."

"Aha."

"You did that on purpose."

"Maybe."

"so now will you tell me if you do?"

"Yes."

"Yes you'll tell me, or yes you do?"

"Yes I'll tell you."

"Then tell me."

"OK." Kim said. He voice dropped down to a whisper. "I love you."

"You do?"

"Yes. And you feel the same way?"

"Yeah."

"Aha, so you do."

"So we both do?"

"Looks like it's like that."

"What now?"

"What do you think?"

"I think I wanna kiss you."

"Then go ahead."

"You'll get mad."

"Maybe."

"Will you get mad or not!?"

"There's only one way to find out."

"Which is..?

"Kiss me."

(sorry if this is confusing)

"Oh." Ron said. He leaned in a little closer. And they kissed. A few minutes later they pulled away. But then Kim's brought her lips back to Ron's. And it happened a third time, only vice-versa. About half an hour passed. Kim was just lying there with her cheek resting against Ron's. And then finally Kim came to her senses.

"Ron we can't do this!" Kim said.

"Do what?" Ron asked, jerking himself out of his blissful daze.

"We both are going out with somebody."

"But I love you!" Ron said desperately.

"Oh Ron I love you too. But we just can't do this."

"KP, I know we both have 'special friends' already, and we've been just friends since preschool, but you can't just let some dumb things like that interfere with true love!"

"How can you be sure this is true love?"

"Because I want to be with you forever!"

"Ron that's the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me."

"Well it's true."

"Naw."

"Yes it is. I want you so much KP!"

"I'm sorry Ron but-I can't!" Kim said. She rushed out of the room, leaving Ron forlorn in his hospital bed.

Aww, poor Ron! More soon.
