(Notes: Whoot! I'm so excited! We're getting REALLY close to the ending of the fan fiction! I'm hoping you all aren't tuning out, because the piece will be complete in a few more chapters!!!)
Five friends entered the lair, but only four were huddled under Shego's black umbrella. Ron was aloof, catching raindrops in his mouth. "Get in here!" Scarlet demanded, pulling him by his tee-shirt collar. Ron chocked on a raindrop and started a coughing fit. "What a loser." Scarlet remarked under her breath while taking everyone's jacket except foolish Ron who didn't bring one.
"I'm soaked to the skin!" Shego laughed touching her wet pajama pants. No one was really dressed at all. Shego reached into a drawer and pulled out a box of candles and lit one. It's lavender fragrance blossomed into the dull, dreary, lifeless lair. As soon as the candle was burning, Kim flicked her soaked hair, causing the candle to burn out. "Hey!" Shego groaned, lighting it once again. Kim laughed and apologized then gazed at Ron who still seemed unapproachable. Scarlet told the party she was going to go get some snacks but Shego stopped her.
"Scarlet, just go upstairs and get us some nice warm blankets . . . Kimmie and I will prepare the snacks, won't we Kimmie?" Shego said turning to Kim who nodded robotically. Scarlet let herself fall out to her desired place. "You boys just get settled." Shego said winking at Drakken as she opened the glass kitchen door for Kim. She closed it behind her.

"Okay what's up?" Shego said looking slyly at the shivering red head. Kim shrugged because she didn't want to tell Shego about her bizarre dream. Shego pulled open the cabinets looking for some munchies for her guests and as she was checking expiration dates, she murmured, "I know you're thinking about him." Shego's voice was soft and sympathetic. She had known that uncertain emotion before. It was very familiar; never knowing if she was quite so perfectly sure of her affection. It was the most awful feeling in the world, all that painful uncertainty when she knew all of along. It was the state of denial, the state of doubt, the need of affirmation. Shego smiled and remembered how much error and anarchy it caused. One little crush, changed her life forever. Now Kimmie was going through the same thing. Sometimes Shego longed to go back and reminisce all over again, but she never would change a thing. Everything was too fantastic, and she regretted nothing. Shego tossed Kim a bag of Doritos and smiled supportively, "Tell me about it."
Kim pushed herself up onto a counter and got settled; Shego paused her food hunt and listened chivalrously. "This is really creepy," Kim started, looking at Shego who nodded anxious for her to continue, "I had this dream about . . . a guy . . ." "Was it Josh?" asked Shego naively, knowing perfectly well who it really was. Kim smiled, "Yes it was."
Shego slammed the cabinet shut. THAT SURPRISED HER. Kim and Josh? She was only kidding. She thought this sitch would be too predictable. Ron and her were star-crossed, but Josh? Shego let out a disappointed sigh, "Oh." Then Shego examined her nails trying not to look upset with her. After all it was a dream, "That's nice." She said absently staring off into space. Maybe she was wrong about Kim and Ron; But it just seemed so . . . right the two of them. Love was a heart. That was its definite shape. But what else went into the heart? At the bottom, a triangle representing undecided and arguing love. The heart itself, two upside down tear drops. When the heart was separate it was two separate tears, floating back up to the sky, where it was lost, lonely, longing. Kim's tear was falling, but Kim was driving it back up.
Shego gulped and was very sweet, "How did you feel after it?" "It wasn't only Josh." Kim garbled and Shego heard her. Shego felt hope for Kim's tear again. "Really? Do tell." "Ron was in it."
There now. Shego could see Kim's checks staining a light frosting of pink. But she was blushing, and she could see a little smile behind that undefined expression. Yep, she was defiantly in THE STAGE. Shego thanked god that Kim was able to feel the most powerful emotion at such a young, immature age. "What happened?" Shego asked as she choose a counter next to Kim.
Kim sighed and shook her head unsurely, "Okay it's like this," Kim took a breath and tried to remember the details of the dream. Sometimes her dreams were so hard to remember! "I was on a track, running, running fast and I heard this soft drum, and I was running along to it." 'That's her heart.'Shego thought as she paid attention to every element of the fantasy. "I stopped midway, and I saw . . ." Kim faltered a moment before giving her answer. "Josh and Bonnie." Kim was shocked she had more trouble saying Josh's name than Bonnie's. The relations expressed in her dream weren't as shocking anymore. Shego seemed to understand and nod occasionally, this calmed Kim down and she continued. "They were in love. And I was really upset until Josh told me to go to him." Kim expected Shego to be confused at this point, but she wasn't. She was smiling secretively, unexplainably. 'I feel old now.' Shego thought as she chuckled to herself. "Go to whom?" Shego finally asked, in a sweet voice. "Well I didn't know until Bonnie pointed to a really bumpy and zig-zagging road and I saw a shadow." Kim breathed and checked the room to make sure Ron and Drakken were completely distracted. They were. Drakken and Ron were looking at some snowman hank comics by candlelight, laughing hysterically at parts they had read numerous times. The two could have broken a record for being the most devoted snowman hank fans.
Kim inhaled deep and continued her story further. "I couldn't see the person but I knew it was . . ." Another deep hesitation. Kim tugged on her auburn hair, having subsequent thoughts. 'I hope she doesn't laugh.' Kim prayed as she told Shego the name.
Shego didn't pretend to be surprised when she heard the name. In fact, she pretended to show as little reaction as possible. "Right, then what?" Kim's blush then got tinted a little darker. "Instead of entering his hug, I pounced on him knocking him to the ground. Then we rolled around in the mud and the dream ended just as we were about to . . . kiss." Kim sighed dreamily thinking back that beautiful thought. It would have been rapture if it were true. Kim composed herself and brought herself back to reality.
"So how did you feel about that?" Shego asked eyeing her. Kim gave her a dismayed look and grumbled, "What are you, my psychiatrist?" She opened the bag of Doritos trying to avoid the question Shego had asked her. "In this case, 'yes', I'm the closest thing you have." Shego snapped back waiting for her to answer her inquiry. She wanted to know if Kim felt the same as she knew Ron did.
Kim wasn't sure she could even tell Shego! Kim hadn't even told Monique about the dream, and she had planned to take the feeling she felt to the grave. But she couldn't exactly say no. "I felt, good." Kim stated in a shaking voice which made Shego beam proudly. 'Awww... Kimmie's growing up.' Shego thought happily to herself as she took a dorito and rewarded herself.
Shego then looked at Kim a long time and then hugged her tightly. "Oh Kimmie!" Shego was squealing in amusement. Kim choked and gasped, "What?" "I'm just so happy!" Kim pushed Shego away and asked for enlightenment. "I finally get to say it." "Say what?"
Shego had been waiting since the night of her date with Drakken to say these words to Kim and finally the day had at last come. Shego took a deep breath and whispered softly, "You're totally crushing on Ron!"
Before Kim could react, Drakken stepped into the kitchen with embarrassment. The two friends stopped their conversing instantaneously; apparently the girls were having a private chat that he had just walked in on. He hadn't heard anything but he flushed just a little. 'Oops.' He thought. Shego's eyes were on him, "Yes dear?" Drakken hated it when Shego spoke in that get-away-or-die tone with him. "Well I just came to check on our snacks." Drakken said reminding them. "Oh!" Kim yelped coming to the realization that Shego and her had been talking for nearly twenty minutes.
Drakken gave Shego his we-need-to-talk look and Shego immediately told Kim to go serve Ron and Scarlet the chips. "Oh, and remember Kim. Just do as your heart tells you and everything will turn out fine." Shego said with a wink as Kim left the room with the Doritos in her hand. Just as she closed the kitchen door she heard Ron yell, "Whoo hoo! Doritos!"
