Thanks and on to the story….
Ch. 7 The New Guy
Kim frowned when she spun around to help with the mess, only to find it mostly taken care of, and the stranger heading for the door.
"Hey, ummm, You, please wait" Kim called to him. The guy paused for a second to let her catch up to him.
"Damien" he told Kim once she was next to him.
"Excuse me?" she looked at him in uncertainty
"My name is Damien, Damien Credible," He explained. (damIeN CREDIBLE INCREDIBLE hahaha)
"Oh, well I just ummm, I just wanted to apologize for the spill back there," she pointed to the remnants of cheese on the floor. Damien laughed.
"What that? Naw its cool" He gave her a sweet smile "It was worth losing some lunch to meet you… I didn't get your name"
"Oh right, I'm Kim, Kim Possible" Kim stuck out her hand in formal greeting
"The one that saves the world like every other day?" Damien asked
"Guilty as charged" Kim smiled back, looking deeply into his eyes. Its like I can feel Ron radiating off this guy Kim thought to herself. "Your not from around here are you?" she asked him. He was about to answer when more customers entered, or rather tried to enter seeing as how Damien and Kim were blocking the entrance. After an awkward shuffle of the two groups Kim and Damien ended up outside. Kim looked back inside to see that Monique was thoroughly enjoying herself, Rufus also looked a bit amused a little sad but amused none the less.
"So, to answer your question, no I'm not from around here. I was born here, and have family here, but my parents moved before I was even one" Damien informed Kim.
"That's, cool. Who's your family? I don't know anyone with the name Credible" Kim inquired.
"Well, my mom's cousin should be out here. Her last name is Stoppable" Damien said in thought "Sally, Sue something like that"
"You mean Susan? Susan Stoppable?" Kim was stunned, that was Ron's Mom. Well it at least explains why he reminds me of Ron
"Yeah that's her alright!" Damien was walking now, Kim at his side
"Wait a second, how come I never saw you at the wedding?" Kim stopped suddenly "Just a few months ago"
"Well you see our families have had issues with one another" Damien was visibly uncomfortable. "May I ask why you were at the wedding?"
"Oh" Kim blushed slightly, her face softened, and eyes started to water slightly "I went with my best friend. I was his date so he wouldn't have to sit at the kid's table"
"Ronald?" Damien asked, his face also fell slightly "He was your 'best friend'?"
Kim was doing all she could not to cry. She nodded slightly. "I'm so, I'm sorry, I really am K-" Damien had strong urge to call her KP, though he didn't know why.
"Its not your fault" Kim sighed, but Damien still looked awfully guilty.
"Its kinda why I'm here, now" Damien said.
"What is?" Kim asked as they started walking by a park. Damien asked to sit on a near by bench before he'd explain. Kim agreed. "Well, why are you here now?" Kim said as the she plopped on the bench.
"My parents, got into an accident" Damien took a sharp intake of breath "no one knew what to do with me exactly. It wasn't, they were young and didn't really think they needed a will, or that I needed Godparents" His eyes seemed to glaze over remembering the tragedies that had befallen him lately. Kim let out a small gasp.
"Oh geese, I'm wow, I'm sorry," Kim stammered, noticing the tears forming in Damien's eyes. So, so familiar, she knew those eyes.
"Like you said earlier, it's not your fault" Damien glanced over at her "well Mrs. Stoppable heard about…it, and she decided that I should live with them, at least for now. She's a very nice lady for doing so too I might add, but I think she's doing it because she misses her son"
"Yeah" Kim nodded "we all miss him. Your a lot like him ya know?"
"Really" Damien scrunched his nose "from the pictures I've seen, he looked a lot" Damien paused to find a good word for it "paler then me"
It struck Kim for the first time that Damien was much more, dark in color. Her mouth opened slightly, then shut, and then opened again. Before she could manage to get out a sentence though Damien spoke up "I guess you would like to know why" he pointed at himself.
"Oh, no its not like bad, I ummm, you don't have to, no explanation necessary" Kim stuttered.
Damien smiled slightly "Don't sweat it Kim. You know how the Stoppable's are Jewish right?" Kim nodded "Well my mom married a man, a black man, who wasn't Jewish" Kim nodded again "thus causing problems"
"I see" Kim looked at him sadly "that really sucks"
"Yup, it does. But since…both accidents, Susan wants to fix things. Taking me in makes sense, and is a good step towards that" Damien gave her a goofy grin "and I get to meet you as an added bonus" Kim blushed bright red. "Well I better get going, I actually didn't mean to take this long to grab a bite of food" Damien and Kim said their goodbyes.
Flash Back
Ron was excited, he was going back, AND he would be easily accepted into most aspects of his life. He really had lucked out on finding a second cousin once removed, or something weird like that.
"Now Ronald" Bernie began "Once you go back, you won't remember any of this, not even me"
Ron looked mortified "but why? I can't even remember you? That's so unfair" Ron gasped "and KIM! How will I remember everything, I love her, I want to be with her, how?"
Bernie shrugged "These things have a way of working out kid, don't ask me how I know that, I just do" Ron sulked, and hung his head, and right before he took the 'leap' so to speak he hugged Bernie tightly.
"Thanks man" and Bernie smiled, and hugged back.
"Well here goes nothing" and Ron jumped into what looked like a water slide tunnel.
Middleton High
Kim was on her way to school the next day, slightly happier than the day before. Monique came by later the previous night to drop Rufus off, but really wanted to know everything about the new guy. Kim told her about most of the things. Monique grinned when Kim had finished, and when asked what she was up to she shrugged her shoulders and refused to answer.
"KIM!" Damien called out to her with a goofy grin on his face, waving her over to his parking spot. Rufus popped out of Kim's pocket and squeaked "What the heck is that?"
Kim grinned back, and introduced Damien to Rufus. Surprisingly Rufus took to him right off, and vise versa. She also introduced Monique to him. Once the 'hellos' were said they headed to the front doors. A single voice stopped Kim and Monique dead in their tracks.
"Who is that?" Bonnie asked very loudly.
Damien turned to her and smiled "Hi, I'm Damien" he held out his hand, she gave him a mocking look "The new guy?" Damien's voice came a bit more confused.
"Interesting" Bonnie noted him carefully "you look awfully familiar"
"He's one of Ron's cousins" Kim's voice came out very coldly and stiff. Bonnie noticeably winced.
"Oh, okay, well see ya around" Bonnie shot out of their quick, Tara in tow, who was waving bye to Kim.
"She's kinda intimidating, isn't she" Damien said once Bonnie was out of earshot.
"You don't know the half of it, New Guy" Kim teased. All three laughed, and continued to class as the bell rang.
