Well I am down to the last chapter. I do not own Kim Possible but the "Jackasses are coming" lady is another story. Believe it or not but I actually witnessed someone doing that in a hospital once, that is where I got the idea for that. I also don't own the Areosmith song mentioned in this chapter….
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*In room 1253* (Ron's POV)
I could do nothing to help her, just sit and wait. I hated seeing her like that. I just couldn't take it anymore, I stood up and left the room. I leaned against the wall out side of her room. If she were to die my whole life would go to hell. I slid down the wall into a sitting position on the floor.
Ron (whispering to himself): Get it together Ron. Be strong…for her at least.
If Kim makes it through this I will finally tell her how I feel. Hopefully she will feel the same way, but should I risk this friendship? A relationship like that could only do one of two things: make our friendship stronger or destroy it. I shouldn't even bother, after all she is too caught up in Josh, she would never notice me like that. *sigh* In the background I could hear screaming of some sort, it became clearer as the individual passed Kim's room stark naked. My eyes widened as a flash of gray hair passed.
Screaming individual: THE JACKASSES ARE COMING!…THE JACKASSES ARE COMING! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! RRREEEEEOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!
The woman was being chased by nurses and security guards. What the hell was this person doing in the pediatrics ward? The sound of yelling and thrashing about in the hallway caught my attention. I peeked down the hallway to see the guards and nurses had tackled her to the floor. I looked back into Kim's room and then back down at the floor. Just then I realized something. Life can change in a matter of seconds, minutes, or even hours. For instance the couple in the waiting room, they had been sitting there for hours but their life is going to change now because of some simple papers that said she was pregnant. Dan's life changed in a matter of minutes, from the moment he sat next to me to the moment he received whatever bad news from the doctor. That women must have been fearing something, maybe death? Why else would she come to the pediatrics ward? She had the chance to run out the front door but why didn't she? And Kim……I stopped there.
Ron (whispering to himself): She could die any second, changing not only her family's life but mine too.
Tears began to roll down my cheeks. This was the first time I was able to cry since it happened. I could hear Rufus squeaking in Kim's room. Something's wrong! I jumped up and rushed to Kim's side…
Ron: What is it Rufus?
Rufus' frenzied squeaking must have woken up Kim's parents, as they were also by the bed. I looked at Kim's beautiful face only to see her lovely emerald eyes open and look back at me. She was okay, I started to open my mouth to speak but Kim's mother cut me off.
(Mrs.) Dr. Possible: Kimmy? Can you hear me?
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
*Now Kim's POV*
I opened my eyes again slowly. I could hear familiar voices but everything was blurry. I could make out the yellow blur as being Ron. The other two blurs must be my parents, and Rufus must be the pink blur. I blinked my eyes to see everything was starting to clear up.
(Mrs.) Dr. Possible: Can you hear me?
My neck was sore so I decided to speak.
Kim: Yeah.
Another blur walked into the room, but as it got closer I recognized it as the doctor.
Doctor: So I see you are awake. How are you feeling?
Kim: I am feeling an extreme amount of pain.
Doctor: Well I can fix that.
He pulled a needle and syringe out of his white coat.
(Mr.) Dr. Possible: What is that?
Doctor: Just a little morphine, but it will knock her out again.
Kim: I don't care anything to kill the pain.
The needle stung a little bit when he poked it in my skin. A few seconds later he pulled it out. I looked up to see Ron was covering his eyes the whole time. He hated needles, I never minded them.
Doctor: It should take effect in a few minutes. Also, not that I don't mind, but make sure you keep the mole rat hidden. I could get fired if my boss sees it here.
Ron: Okay Doc. (putting Rufus in his pocket)
The doctor took the clipboard at the foot of the bed and walked out of the room, my parents followed.
Kim: Hey Ron.
Ron: Yeah Kim.
Kim: Thank you.
Ron: For what?
Kim: For finding me and pulling me out of that mess, and for being a great friend.
Ron: You're welcome Kim…wait…how did you-
I pulled Ron's head down and kissed him gently on the cheek. He started to blush. I could feel the morphine kicking in, I soon became drowsy.
*Ron's POV*
This was it I had to tell her.
Ron: You know Kim, I've been thinking and there has been something I have been meaning to tell you for a couple years now……(I closed my eyes, gulped, and took a deep breath) I love you Kim and not just as a friend but as something more…..
I waited for a response but none came. I opened my eyes and looked at her. She had fallen asleep. I leaned down and returned a kiss on her cheek. I straightened back up and turned around to see that her parents had watched me.
Ron: I think I better get home and change.
I was still in the dirty ratty clothes from the mission.
(Mr.) Dr. Possible: Yes that is a good idea. I need to get to work.
(Mrs.) Dr. Possible: I will stay here with her.
(Mr.) Dr. Possible and I walked out of the room and to the elevator, where we boarded. It was silent, I didn't want to know what he was thinking of me at that point. I kissed his daughter right in front of his eyes. I knew he was overprotective of her but just something that harmless shouldn't have bothered him. Silence was still overshadowing the elevator until the bell sounded that we had reached the first floor.
(Mr.) Dr. Possible: Ron would you like a ride back to your house?
Ron: Sure.
We got into the car, silence was still engulfing the air. He leaned over and turned on the radio, but he kept it a low volume. About twenty minutes passed before we reached my house, he pulled into my driveway. Opening the passenger door I stepped out.
(Mr.) Dr. Possible: Ronald.
I turned to look at him.
Ron: Yeah?
(Mr.) Dr. Possible: Don't give up.
I smiled at him and closed the door. He backed out of the driveway and drove off.
Ron: (talking to himself) Well that went better than I thought it would.
I shook my head in disbelief, now all I have to do is tell Kim. That was going to be harder than I thought. I just had to wait to tell her and hope she isn't drugged at that point. I snickered as I made my way into my house.
*Back at the hospital* (Kim's POV)
I woke up a few hours later to see Ron and my dad gone. My mother was washing her face in the bathroom. I stared at the ceiling. Thank you Nathan, you kept me from doing something so stupid. I smiled and closed my eyes and began to think about my childhood. At that point the song "Amazing" by Areosmith popped into my head. But it was the words "life's a journey, not a destination" that stuck…
THE END
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YAY! I'm done! Tell me what you thought of it. I am thinking of making a sequel about Ron finally telling Kim about his feelings but I don't know yet. Plus I am busy working on another story about Kim Possible but that one is gonna be a comedy. Thank you for R/R!
