Ron motioned to Bonnie to take a right as soon as they cam though the side door. They were in shadows, though not the deep ones that the chaperones constantly patrolled to keep teen age romances from going to far on school property. Bonnie took a seat and Ron slid in the one next to her.

"See? No one really pays attention to you over here. The chaperones keep an eye on the dark areas the people that are interested in being seen are out there and they don't care about the people here. The defense of anonymity, a wondrous concept."

"You have made a study of this?"

"Think of it as independent study. It was for self survival really."

"You won't have to worry about that any more."

"Why is that Bon Bon?"

"You have me now. Those that stand with me I protect."

Ron looked at the brown haired girl next to him. "But what if they are out to get you?"

"Then they will be to busy to bother you. See? It works out."

"No, it doesn't. Tell you what; you stand up for me I will stand up for you."

"We aren't together. Why would you do it?"

"We may not be together, but we are alone together against the night."

"Ron?" Ron looks at her. "What if I don't want to be alone?" putting her head on his shoulder.

Ron put his arm around the cheerleader's shoulders and squeezed lightly. "I can try."

Bonnie sighed, "Ron? Thank you."

"No prob Bon. Would you like something to drink?"

"That would be nice."

Ron pulled back his arm and made his way through the shadows to the refreshment table and managed to get two drinks without being seen by all but one person. A redhead gave him a quizzical look, he responded with a nonchalant shrug and she turned back to her blond headed date.

"Here you go Bonnie."

Bonnie smiled and pulled a strand of hair from her face back around her ear, "Thanks."

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you are shy."

"Well, you have been nice to me. And all of this is without any promises of anything; I am not sure how to play it."

"Then don't. Relax and take it as it comes."

"I'll try."

"Good, and for you that will be living up to the Ron Stoppable motto."

"That would be 'Never Be Normal'?"

"That's it. See I am a good influence on you," smiled the teen.

"You may never know how much. Can I put my head on your shoulder again?"

"Any time Bonnie, any time."

She put her head on his shoulder and snuggled close to him this time. Ron put his arm around her again, this time holding her tighter. They stayed like this for most of the rest of the dance.

"LAST DANCE OF THE NIGHT, EVERYONE TO THE FLOOR WITH YOUR PARTNER," blared the deejay.

Bonnie looked up at Ron, "Come on, one dance?"

"O-okay. Are you sure?"

"More than anything. I may not dance with the one that brought me, but I am going to dance with the one that kept me here and is taking me home."

Ron took her hand and they walked again side by side, this time touching and danced, alone, together against the night.
