When in Rome- chapter four- Having Second Thoughts
Kim's eyes slowly opened as she saw Ron's concerned face looking at her.
"Oh good you're awake," he flashed a relived smile; she returned it.
"How long have I been out?"
"About a day, we were lucky to find this nearby village and tend to the wounded."
"How bad was the damage?" she asked remembering the ambush.
Ron frowned, but continued, "We lost about fifty people, mostly soldiers and took out thirty of the barbarians."
Kim sat up to examine her wound; it stung, but it was wrapped tightly with cloth. She turned her head towards Ron who was giving her a worried look.
"What Ron, you're creeping me out."
"I thought I lost you KP; when I saw you black out I thought you were dead. I'll never let you get in harm's again!"
He continued to rant until Kim gave him a gentle 'shut up' kiss which did the job.
"But I'm just glad that you're okay," he finally said. Kim giggled a little and placed her hand in Ron's.
"When do we leave?"
"Tomorrow"
"Great then we can finally be rid of that imp Larry."
Suddenly he materialized next to Kim's bed.
"Speak of the devil," Ron groaned.
"What's all this I hear about being an imp," he pouted; obviously trying to be funny.
"This is your fault," Kim spat.
Larry looked at her shocked, "ME? Why am I always the one to blame?"
"Maybe it's because you put us here and everything bad happens when you show up; you said nothing bad would happen to us," Ron said trying to calm Kim's anger.
"You misinterpreted me I said that I would hate it if anything bad happened to you, but I said no such thing about saying that nothing would happen; you two assumed that."
Ron and Kim realized that he was right and that made them feel even worse than before.
"How much longer are we going to be trapped in this place of yours for?" Kim asked.
"When I believe that you are ready; it depends on your behavior."
"Fine, but it had better be sooner than later," Kim pointed out.
"Don't worry my dear your journey will end very shortly," Larry flashed them a suspicious smile that sent a tingle down their spines as he faded away.
"Well KP it looks like we'll be here for a while; might as well go see our parents."
"I still can't believe our parents live together," Kim said.
"Maybe in Roman times they did; we should be wary or else Scary will be back to haunt us," Ron's humor made Kim laugh as she leaned on his shoulder.
"At least I'm stuck with you Ron." Ron smiled and kissed her forehead as she slowly drifted to sleep again.
"Rest for now KP; tomorrow we ride to Constantinople."
The rest of the trip was smooth and quiet. When they reached the gates of Constantinople they gaped in awe. The city was huge and very beautiful.
People lined up to welcome them as the caravan passed by.
"Wow," Kim thought, "you'd think we were royalty or something."
"The people here probably want us to feel welcome," Ron replied.
In the crowd Kim and Ron spotted their parents immediately. Even with togas on they still looked exactly like parents should.
At the end of the parade James and Anne Possible were standing next to Ron's parents. They couldn't help giving their children bone crushing hugs.
"We are so glad that you two are safe; we heard about the barbarians attacking your caravan and had feared the worst," said Mrs. Possible.
"We're fine Mom," Kim replied still clinging to her mother.
"Well how about we head over to the villa and have a feast while we listen to the tales you have to tell," said Mr. Stoppable as he escorted his daughter-in-law.
Their parent's home was twice the size of theirs. The land that occupied it was nothing but empty fields of grass and clovers. Kim and Ron had to admit; they were a little jealous of them.
After a big meal they began to discuss politics and gossip. Ron and Kim talked about their friends and how Rome was doing. The big subject changed took them by surprise.
"Are we going to have any grand children yet?" asked Mrs. Stoppable.
Kim and Ron nearly chocked, but replied timidly, "Well…uh…not quite yet, but I'm pretty sure it will be soon," Kim and Ron flashed them a fake smile which they took as real and continued talking. Both of them gave a sigh of relief.
"That was close," Ron whispered to Kim.
"Yeah next time we'll just change the subject."
Soon it was dark and everyone made their way to their rooms. Kim and Ron entered their room and just as Ron was about to turn around and start the procedure that they had routinely done for several weeks now Kim placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Not tonight Ron," she grinned from ear to ear.
Ron was in the dark, but as soon as Kim removed her clothing right in front of him he soon got the message.
"Y…You…mean…now?" was all he could say; he was too stunned by her exquisite body.
Kim let her body do all the talking as she began to walk towards him an erotic look on her face.
"I need you Ron; right now!" she began to wildly take off his clothing as he resisted.
"KP? I think you shouldn't have had any of that wine," but Kim didn't listen.
Ron soon gave up resisting; realizing it was futile and succumbed to Kim's advances. Kim smile and began to kiss him passionately; Ron was now in heaven.
Luckily everyone was asleep or else all the noise would have aroused suspicion. The action continued on all night.
The morning sun arose as Ron's eyes slowly opened to discover his lover hovering over him.
"Good morning sunshine," as her fiery red hair cascaded off her shoulders making her look even more attractive.
"Good morning to you too," he replied leaning up to gently touch her lips.
Ron stared at the ceiling trying to say something, but Kim spoke first; and it was a doozy.
"How did you like it?"
Ron had heard this line from countless movies, but now that he was the subject he didn't know how to respond correctly without messing it up.
"Even though it was the first time I had made love to someone it was the single greatest experience of my life and I will always treasure this memory of when our souls truly became one."
That was the right answer because the loving started all over again and in fact they didn't get out of bed until later in the afternoon.
The day continued on normally and soon the beauty of the landscape took them through time.
A whole month had past and Ron and Kim decided that it was time to head back to Rome. After kisses and hugs Ron and Kim entered the carriage and made their way back to Rome.
While traveling Ron and Kim began to think. The time they spent with their parents was unforgettable and ever since that night Ron and Kim's relationship has gone even further that they had ever hoped.
Roman life may be tough and different, but there were plenty of good things to counter it; and just like clock work Larry materialized.
"I see you two are in a fine mood; and I'm about to make your day. I've decided to let you go back home."
This made them leap for joy, but something seemed to make them sad as well.
"What's wrong? I thought you two would be ecstatic; you can finally go home."
Ron looked at Kim; she gave him a nod.
"Larry Kim and I have done some thinking and we've decided that we would like to stay in this time."
Larry seemed skeptical at first, but after seeing the seriousness on their face he realized that they were telling the truth.
"Is that what you really want? What changed your minds?"
"This time and place is much more peaceful and quiet; no technology to hinder us, no biological threats, and we can live quiet normal lives." Kim stated.
"Well I guess if that's what you really want?"
They both nodded. Larry smiled and nodded back.
"Alright then; from now on I will appear no longer and you two can live as normally as possible. Bye guys."
"Tank you Larry," they said as he slowly disappeared.
"So KP what should we do now that we are free Romans now?"
"How about we cuddled in bed together a start a family?" she suggested as Ron wrapped his arms around her.
"That's sounds good to me too." Cont…
