Disclaimer: I don't own Kim Possible. I do own a warped mind that comes up with fan fictions of it.
When Kim got to the hospital via a lift from a Global Justice VTOL, Ron was already in a private room courtesy of Global Justice. When Kim looked in she saw that he was asleep lightly snoring with Bonnie asleep in a chair facing the bed; their hands still entwined. Kim smiled as she leaned in the doorway watching as they slept.
"You look about ready to drop, Ms. Possible."
Startled Kim turned. "Doctor Director, sorry, I guess I am still..."
"On edge from the mission. I know the feeling well. You were lucky. He was very lucky. There is something that you need to know."
"What's that?" questioned Kim warily.
"When you are on missions with GJ you are considered contract agents. Don't let it go to your head, it keeps our ass out of a sling. There is an interesting fact though. Since you are contract agents that also allows you to claim rewards on captured combatants. Janus is wanted in multiple countries and agencies."
Kim was puzzled. "What are you getting at?"
"There is a very nice amount waiting for someone to claim. An amount that could set someone up very nicely."
"Such as me?"
"No, not you. I know you. You wouldn't take the money even if it was forced one you. Those two on the other hand... A nice nest egg."
"Nest egg?"
"I can make sure that it is held in escrow, safe, sound and gathering interest. When they reach their majority it can be paid out in a lump sum, monthly, any combination..."
"Are you saying setting them up for life?"
"More or less. Ms. Possible, did you know that my doctorate is in psychology specializing in relationships? I don't know the history of Ms. Rockwaller, but I do that of Mister Stoppable. From their actions and body language, I would say that this could be a very enduring situation for them. I am sorry."
"Sorry? Why? My best friend has found someone that makes him happy."
"Sorry because I had you two as a couple in the betting pool. I had it pegged as being in the open two months ago though."
"There is nothing between us but friendship. Why won't anyone believe us?"
"Experience. It isn't a hundred percent, but you tend to bet that way."
"They did just seem to connect all of a sudden. Bonnie has totally changed from what she was like last week, and for as long as I can remember. It seems genuine. When she was vulnerable she just seemed to pick up on Ron's vibe. It's not a hundred percent, but I think that she is making a conscious effort to stay changed."
Doctor Director nodded, "That's the only thing that any of us can do." She stopped looking at the pair sleeping in the room. "What say we find you a bed before I have to carry you to one? I think that I can find enough in the slush fund for a room at a hotel. Think you can be late to first period?"
"I won't be going anywhere till they let him out."
"He is only in for observation. Don't get me wrong; he is going to be in pain and probably on painkillers for a couple of days at least, but is perfectly fine otherwise. He will be off his feet for a bit and then some therapy."
Kim felt the exhaustion that she had been ignoring for the past thirty minutes. "Okay, as long as it has a comfy bed."
Authors Notes: Sorry this is later that I intended. I had some problems with this chapter. I totally rewrote it a couple of times and still am not sure that I am one hundred percent happy with it. Majour twists coming up, please stay tuned.
