A/N and Disclaimer: I thought it needed a small wrap-up, so I added this, before posting. I prefer to write whole stories before submitting them. Ideas come to me for prior chapters and I check and read all, five or six times, before finally letting go of my children. Please Read and Review. Again, flames are welcome. It's part of my process in the learning cycle.
Disney Enterprises, Inc. owns all that is Kim Possible, I don't. I borrow her and her posse for no recompense.
Chapter 14 Good Byes
Amelia stood at the Trans Universe Airway ticket counter while the attendant printed up her first class ticket and took her luggage. Finally, ticket in hand, she turned and walked over to where Kim, Ron and Bonnie were waiting. "I'm all set. It's down to Rio for a week with my model friend, Chantalle, before heading back to work on Fiji." Bonnie looked envious. "Rio and Fiji, Wow! I can't imagine! Do you need an assistant!" she asked, hopefully. Amelia thought, hand on chin. "Why, yes I do." Bonnie jumped up and down, clapping furiously and squealing. "But you need to finish high school first," Amelia added firmly. Bonnie, hopes shattered, slumped into a pout. "But that means no Fiji!" Amelia went over and put her arm around Bonnie's shoulder. "I'll take you next winter, as a graduation present." She turned to Kim and Ron, "We could all go." Kim and Ron looked at each other, then back to Amelia. "Been there, done that," they sang in unison. "Jinx, you owe me a soda!" Ron added quickly. Kim put her hands on her hips and gave him a fierce stare. Her countenance slowly faded to a smile. "You win." She gave him a peck on the cheek. "BooYah! Finally got one!" Ron shouted, shooting one fist in the air. They all laughed.
They started to walk to the security area in silence. "You know," Kim broke the quiet, "Ron told me everything about your mission." Amelia shot a surprised look at Ron. "We tell each other everything." Ron said in his defense. "We have, since... like forever." Amelia turned to Bonnie. "Do you know?" Bonnie sheepishly grinned. "Yeah, Kim told me but... I had already figured it out." Amelia's jaw dropped, her mouth wide open and eyes as big as saucers. "I mean," Bonnie continued with a small smirk, "I know you. You said you were coming home to visit the folks but we all know they're out of town. That meant you had something else on your mind. Something that you wanted to keep secret. Now, your a big time model, but new in the business. Your away from home a lot and probably get lonely. Then you show up here and buddy up with Kim and Ron. You were never that close to them. I mean, you were with Kim on the swim team, but you didn't make friends with her. You still saw her as a competition for a spot on the team." She paused to let her logic set in. "Then I remembered the Animology stuff from a couple of years ago. I put two and two together," Bonnie said triumphantly. Kim, Ron and Amelia just stood there, amazed. Amelia finally said, "That was brilliant." She threw her arms around Bonnie's neck and gave her a big hug. Both Kim and Ron broke into huge smiles. Amelia finally broke the embrace and said to Bonnie, "You're very intelligent. If you want a job, after you graduate, you got one with me."
The four walked on. Kim and Ron, hand in hand; And Amelia and Bonnie, arm in arm. When they arrived at the check-point, Amelia looked at her watch. "I still have two hours before my flight. Wanna grab something?" She pointed to the California Pizza Kitchen off to one side. They were quickly seated in a booth. The girls ordered a large Vegetarian pizza. Ron got a Mexican style(Of course!), individual pizza. They argued what kind of wine would go with a Veggie pizza, but finally settled on sodas.
Halfway through the first slice, Amelia asked Kim, "Did you ever find your Yellow Trout?" Kim threw her pizza down and contorted her face into a weird grimace. "Ah, Yeah! And Ewww! I might add." Bonnie looked quizzically at her. "Who was it? Do I know him?" Kim wiped her hands with a napkin. "I don't think you know him. His name is Senor Senior Junior. One of my Arch Foes. And, Ugggh! So not my style! He's so conceited!" She wrapped her arm around Ron and gave him another little peck on the cheek. Ron picked up Kim's piece of half eaten pizza and fed her a little bite, then put it back on her plate. "What is his first name, anyway?" Kim pondered. "Santiago!" Ron stated flatly and took another hunk of his pizza. Amelia thought for a second. "So if you two got hitched, you'd be Senora Santiago Senior Junior-Possible. That's a mouthful in itself." They all chewed, figuratively and literally, on that for a minute.
"Oh, by the way," Amelia said, wiping her mouth, "I'll be getting my own jet next month. If you two ever need a ride, let me know." "Your own jet," Kim said, impressed. Amelia shrugged, "Yeah, I figure why not. I'm getting approached by fans, even in first class; And my accountant says it will help with taxes. Besides," she added, "it will give me a chance to see you two." Ron looked at Kim, then said to Amelia, "That would be great. We probably won't get our jet for a year or two."
They finished their meal talking about travel and the places they've been. Bonnie, having helped on a couple of missions herself, wasn't left out of the conversation. As they left the restaurant, Amelia asked, "When is graduation?" Bonnie chimed in, "It's on June 6th.' Amelia pulled her day planner out of her Gucci bag and checked. "Yep! I can make it. And," she flipped the page, "I have the week after free. I can come back and we can really celebrate."
Just then, the announcement for Amelia's flight came over the speakers. "I guess it's time to say our good-byes," Amelia said, her eyes welling with tears. She grabbed Bonnie into a big hug. "You have a job waiting for you." She quickly turned to Kim, pulling her aside. She put her hands on Kim's shoulders. "Both you and I know how special Ron is. Keep him! If you ever give him up, he's mine!" She rasped. "I know and I will," Kim said sweetly. She took hold of Amelia's hands and held them tight. "And you know this. We're getting married on August 20th. Put that in your day planner," she said with a triumphant smile. Amelia frowned. Amelia turned and went over to Ron and hugging him, whispered in his ear, "I know what I didn't get on this trip. I hope you know what you have." She then planted a huge kiss, full on his lips. Ron swooned a little but recovered quickly. "I do," Ron said confidently. Kim walked between Amelia and Ron and turned to him. "Just remember those words on August 20th." She took his head in her hands and treated Ron to an ever bigger kiss. Fifteen seconds, when the kissers finally broke, Ron fell to his knees. "I do," he said weakly. Kim just giggled.
A/N: There it is, my first long form story. I hope I did well. Let me know with a R & R.
