NOTE: This, believe it or not, is the ending chapter. It doesn't completely tie off everything, so I might do a sequel. Please tell me what you think and enjoy :)
CHAPTER 9
It's not easy, tying to swim steadily toward shore while holding a limp unconscious person above water at the same time. But Shego did it. More than once though a thought popped into Shego's head that was very tempting indeed.
Why not let Drakken drown and drown with him? Their lives were completely messed up anyway. Somehow, Shego managed to fight the urge to just drown and end her sorrowful life.
She decided to live for Drakken. He wasn't ready to die. He had dreams and a life too. He'd probably never even fallen in love yet. Shego knew she had many times, although every time something seemed to go wrong. So maybe she was still waiting to find someone she truly loved. Maybe she wasn't ready to die yet either...
It surprised Shego how she could think so many thoughts while swimming Drakken to dry land. Before she knew it she was laying Drakken out on the damp, sandy, beach.
She paused for a second, almost expecting Drakken to wake up. Checking his breathing and heart rate and not being able to hear any beat at all made Shego panic.
Never in her whole life had Shego pictured herself in a situation like this one. Her own memories with Drakken in the past day flashed in front of her eyes and suddenly she remembered the spa lady.
'The lady had been right all along,' Shego thought, half aloud. 'I love Drakken.'
Locking her lips over his, Shego gave Drakken a breath of her own air. Then she pressed on his chest many times to get his heart beating. Again and again she repeated the process. It was long and tiring.
After about two minutes Drakken gave a raspy breath and began to cough up water.
As Shego fingered the bruise on his forehead he winced and even cried out in pain, opening his eyes to see Shego leaning over him, looking hopeful.
"Shego?" Drakken whispered in a voice as loud as he could manage.
"Uh huh?" Shego replied, toying with Drakken's hair.
"Was I dreaming, or were you just making out with me?"
Shego's cheeks flushed and for once she was lost for words. a
At last she said, "Sorry, Doctor D. It must've been a dream...but...this isn't."
With those few spoken words, Shego lay on the ground next to Drakken, wrapped her arms around his neck, and began to kiss him softly and passionately.
After a minute, Shego could tell Drakken had pretty much melted for good and she could even see the fireworks go off in his head.
Shego sat up fully. "Kisses are nice, aren't they?" She pulled Drakken up, who was weak from both trauma and love at once.
Drakken only managed to mutter a quiet "Yeah." In reply.
Looping her arms around Drakken's waist and shoulder, Shego set off for the hotel in the distance.
"Shego?" Drakken asked again, interrupting the silence of the night.
"Yeah?"
"Did I ruin your vacation?" Drakken asked, biting his lip.
"No," Said Shego assuringly, "You didn't. Well, not completely." She grinned in the Darkness that was now lit by the lights of the buildings as they neared the hotel.
"Who gets the hotel bed tonight?" Asked Drakken, who had been wondering about this for awhile now.
"Me." Stated Shego simply. Then she laughed. "Just kidding, we both do."
Drakken gleamed in delight. "Really?"
"Yeah, really." Shego confirmed in a romantic voice, planting another kiss on the side of Drakken's neck. "Maybe somewhen during our vacation we could have a little fun in that bed too..."
Drakken gulped nervously.
"Only if you want too." Shego laughed, as they walked through the doors of the hotel and up to the elevators. "And not right away, not for awhile."
Shego winked at Drakken and sighed happily, realizing she had found what she had been looking for all along.
True, real, love.
THE END
NOTE: I hope you all enjoyed that. So, if I ever get around to it, what would you say to a sequel? ;) Please Review :)
