I don't own KP or Hawk Nelson's song "Every Little Thing".
Chapter 6: The Girl of My Dreams
"Hey, Kim," Josh called.
Tara didn't feel jealous, but she was a little tweaked at Josh. He seemed to have trouble letting go of the fact that Kim just wasn't his girl anymore. Given that this was Tara's first date with him, but, if he didn't stop talking about Kim, she'd explode. She hoped running into Kim at the mall's food court (though she didn't know Kim was there at first) would help make things clear to him.
"Oh, hi, Josh," Kim replied, "I didn't see you there. Of course, I wasn't looking for you."
"Oo-oo," Tara thought, "dissed."
"So," Josh said, not picking up the hint that Kim really didn't want to talk to him, "what have you been up to?"
"Well, I'm here with my new boyfriend," Kim said, dropping another hint for Josh to stop talking to her.
"Hey, KP," Ron said, bringing some food from the burger place (Kim must have convinced him not to go to Bueno Nacho somehow), "Oh, hi, Tara. How you doing, Mo-Mankey?"
"Good. Just hanging with my new girl," he said, then turned to Kim, "I never settle for second best."
Looking ready to kill Josh, Ron shouted, "NOW YOU SEE HERE! Say whatever you want about me, but no one insults my Kimmie. GOT IT, MONKEY BOY!"
"What?" Josh said nervously, "You mean that you are Kim's new boyfriend?"
"Are all guys this dense, or just the ones I know?" Tara thought, but said, "Doy, Josh. Why are you so surprised? It was obvious they'd get together some day."
"Well, Josh," Kim chimed in, "I don't settle for second best, either. That's why I'm here with Ron. Let's go, Ron."
As the two walked away, Josh asked, "What could she possibly see in that loser?"
"Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control?" Tara chimed, "And if she heard you call Ron a loser, she'd knock your block off."
"Well, then. It's a good thing she didn't hear me. Isn't it?"
Suddenly, Tara burst in laughter.
"Did I say something funny?" Josh asked.
"It's just that," Tara said, taking deep breathes, "those traits I listed are from a Bible verse I memorized way back when I was in Sunday School (Galatians 5:22-23, if you want to know)."
I saw her yesterday,
And I never felt the feeling
Like the one I felt today.
And now-ow
It's taking over me.
I've never met anyone like you
'Cause I could never find the words to write you.
—Sunday, at Kim's church (just before the service started)—
Ron was glad this wasn't a formal church. That meant that he could ware his street clothes, and didn't have to don anything like a tux. Not that he hated tuxedoes, he just preferred to ware more natural clothes (for him, at least).
"Kim," the pastor said, "Who's your friend?"
"This is Ron," Kim said, presenting him, "Ron, this is Pastor Ron Vestrand."
"Hey. We have the same name," Ron (Kim's boyfriend, Ron) said.
"Good to meet you, Ron," the pastor said, shaking his hand, "Kim has told me a lot about you."
She-e-e's been on my mind.
(She's working overtime)
She's got perfect reasons;
Said she'd love to talk to Jesus.
I-I-I think I believe her, when she says,
"Life could be so simple, if we all just learned to pray."
—Monday, at school—
Kim noticed that people were staring at them. It's not like Kim never walked to school with Ron before. She did it every day. Well, it was a little deferent this time. They were walking arm in arm.
The best reaction was from Bonnie, who said, "WHAT! Kim and Ron! What could she see in him?"
Kim could think of a thousand different things to say, but decided to say, "Well, for one: he's a great kisser."
She thought Bonnie would faint. It was very gratifying to see her flip out at seeing Kim with Ron. But "Bon-Bon" was going to have to get used to it. Everyone was.
She's got every little thing I wanted,
And it still feels just like the day it started.
I said goodbye to the brokenhearted,
And I could never…express the way
I felt before tonight.
—Tuesday, at lunch—
It's not like Ron had never seen Kim before, it's just that he had noticed what a beautiful women she'd become. More so then before. He was enamored by every little move she made. Each one was filled with grace and strength.
"Hey, Stoppable," Brick said, "Congratulations on getting Kim Possible. I take back all those times I called you a loser."
"Thanks, Brick, but Kim's not some prize to be won. She's a wonderful person, and I love her."
She sits there all alone;
She's reading from the chapter
That she sometimes calls her own.
And now-ow
She's taking over me,
'Cause this girl I once rejected
Has now become the girl of my dreams!
—Wednesday, after school—
"Hey, KP," Ron said (as if anyone else would call her that), "I've got a great idea for a date Friday night."
"Really?" Kim said, lighting up at Ron actually making plans, "Where?"
"It's a secret."
"Oh, come on. Tell me."
"No, Kim. Just ware something nice. Ya know, something along the lines of that black dress you wore on our first date."
Kim was satisfied (for now) with what Ron told her.
She's got every little thing I wanted,
And it still feels just like the day it started.
I said goodbye to the brokenhearted,
And I could never…express the way
I felt before tonight.
—Thursday, at lunch—
"Come on, Ron," Kim said while "puppy dog pouting", "just a hint. Pwetty pwease."
"Give it up, girl," Monique said, "That boy is not cracking."
"Why do you want to know were I'm taking you Friday?" Ron asked, "I thought you loved surprises, except when they're from Drakken."
"I do," Kim said, "but I love ruining them even more."
She's not an ordinary girl,
I can see it in her eyes.
I'm just an ordinary boy,
God must have heard my prayers last night!
—Friday, 1800 hours (that's 6 O' clock to you and me)—
Kim's dress was a nice blue one with no accessories. Ron had one for her. It was a golden necklace (that he bought with some of the "leftovers" from his naco-royalties-check thing). She squealed in joy when she saw it. It wasn't really very impressive, but Kim loved it anyway. Ron knew because she told him at least seven times.
Kim held on tightly to his waist, which she really didn't need to do, as he drove his scooter to their destination.
"Okay, KP," he said, after they got there, "open your beautiful green eyes."
Kim snickered a little, opened her eyes, and said in shock, "Ron, this is the most exclusive restaurant in town! How'd you get reservations!"
"A good magician never reveals his secrets, my love," Ron said, then, seemingly, pulled a rose (with the thorns removed) out of nowhere and placed it in her hair above her ear, "A flower for the lovely lady."
She-e-e's been on my mind.
(She's working overtime)
She's got perfect reasons;
Said she'd love to talk to Jesus.
I-I-I think I believe her, when she says,
"Life could be so simple, if we all just learned to pray."
"Come on, Ron," Kim insisted, "tell me how you did it."
"Kim," Ron replied, "can't you just sit back and enjoy yourself?"
"You're right. This is silly. Forgive me?"
"Without a doubt. Would you like to dance while we wait for our dinner?"
"But, Ron, this place doesn't let people—"
She was cut off by the start of elegant music.
"I've made arrangements for it to be aloud tonight, my dear," Ron said with a British accent, "Shall we?"
Every little thing I wanted,
And it still feels just like the day it started.
So say goodbye to the brokenhearted,
And I could never…express the way
I felt before tonight.
The dancing was incredible. Kim wished this night would never stop. She never found out how Ron got those reservations. The only way to get them was to create some alternate universe where you already had reservations. But, currently, Kim didn't care how he did it. She was more focused on those pretty brown eyes of his.
She's not an ordinary girl,
I can see it in her eyes.
I'm just an ordinary boy,
God must have heard my prayers last night…
Well, you like it? R R please. You'll find out why I upped the rating to PG-13 in Chapter 7: The Prom (coming in before February 22nd). It's probably not for the reason you're thinking of.
