Chapter 8 - funeral
It was Ron's funeral. Everyone arrived at the church at 1pm. It was a depressing event. They entered the church and sat down in the appropriate seats. It was eary in the church, the sounds of people walking and whispering echoed throughout the building. Kim was sat in the front next to her mum and twin brothers. No one noticed when two mysterious people entered the church and sat at the back near the door to make a quick escape if necessary. Suddenly the doors opened and music started playing. Six people including Mr stoppable and Mr possible, entered the building carrying the wooden box into the church. They walked down aisle. They placed the coffin on the table next to the picture of Ron smiling with his mole rat, Rufus stood on his shoulder. The vicar came to the front of the church and spoke a few words before allowing people to stand and talk. First was Ron's mother and father.
"Ron was special from the day he was born. We always knew he would achieve great things, half the people here today was saved by our son. I never thought I would be around to see my son's coffin. I though he would live his life till a grand old age. I remember his first day at school. He didn't want to go but when he met his best friend Kim he couldn't wait to go. Every morning he would wake up early and be ready in 10 minutes and we'd always ask why he was up so early and he would say I can't be late I got to go see KP." The father said he paused for a moment and comforted his wife who was crying. "He always was cheerful, even if he did get bad news" then Mr stoppable looked up to the sky and said "Good bye son we see you soon"
After a few more family members spoke it was Kim's turn.
"I knew Ron since pre k. I remember that day very well. Some kid was picking on him so I went over and stood up for him. We learnt a lesson that day. Don't annoy the big kids." She paused and everyone laughed a depressing laugh. She looked around the room to see who she was talking to and noticed the two strangers at the back. She knew who they were and smiled at the fact they were there. "We became friends in an instant and always hanged out with each other. When we were older we learnt how to fight. Well that was a funny experience with him. he had no clue what he was doing. He accidentally hit the master with a Bo staff trying to do some random stunt. We started taking on missions. Just little ones at first then we started saving the world fighting super villains and mad scientists. He was also fighting to keep his pants on also." She paused again for people to laugh which they did as they had all heard the stories of Ron's pants. "I loved Ron like a brother and I will never forget you Ron. Never" she ended her speak by going over to the coffin and putting a picture of her and Ron at their prom. And walked off to sit back down
After everyone spoke. The curtain closed. Everyone made their way outside to see Ron's coffin lowered into the ground. People threw dirt and flowers onto his coffin and stayed for a few minutes to pay their respects. The last one left was Kim. The mysterious couple went over to pay their respects.
"You ok Kim" Shego asked concerned.
"Yeah I'm fine, do you want a few minutes to tell him you're sorry" Kim said, with anger in her voice, toward Drakken.
Drakken didn't say anything and just stood in front of Kim looking hard done by.
"Hey princess, it wasn't his fault"
After a few moments Kim began crying once again saying "it's all my fault. If I never dragged him out on the mission and just left him to his nacos he would still be alive" Kim cried out. Shego took her into an embrace getting a weird look from Drakken.
"It's not your fault Kimmie. You didn't know this was gunna happen."
Kim nodded before saying "I need to go home, my mum will be waiting for me"
"Ok I'll walk you home then"
They walked in complete silence. Shego had here arm around Kim's waist keeping her from falling as she almost did when she walked out the cemetery. They arrived at her house half an hour later.
"See you later then" Shego said as she walked to leave but Kim grabbed her arm and pulled her into a quick kiss.
"Bye" Kim said as she watched Shego walk away.
When Kim entered the house she ran straight up to her room. She changed out of the black dress she was wearing and put on her pink top and dark blue jeans. She stayed in her room to draw up some plans.
She didn't how long she had been in her room but it was almost 9 o'clock. She felt a new presence in the room. Knowing who it was she quickly put her plans in the draw and went over to the mysterious presence.
"What you doing there pumpkin" Shego inquired.
"Just homework"
"But you haven't got college at the moment. You're on holiday"
"I was given homework for the holiday and how do you know" Kim asked.
"You told me a few days ago"
"Oh and here I thought you was spying on me"
"I do that all the time, didn't I tell you I am your stalker" Shego said with a smirk.
"Well I better get thinner curtains for you then" Kim said with a grin.
Shego went over to the bed, Kim followed suit. She leaned in and kiss Kim on the lips. Kim kissed her back but something was different. Something was wrong. Shego broke the kiss and looked into the sparkling olive eyes that belonged to her once enemy now lover.
"Are you ok babe" Shego asked.
"Can we just lie here instead of doing anything tonight please?"
"Yeah sure"
Kim and Shego leaned back in the bed. Shego started caressing Kim's hair. They were quiet for a few minutes before Kim broke the silence.
"Shego"
"Yeah"
"Please don't ever leave me"
"Don't worry princess I'm not going anywhere"
"I love you"
"I love you too" Shego said whilst kissing Kim's forehead.
Soon after they fell asleep.
A/N - sorry, just want to clarify because its probably confusing you . Kim is in college not high school . its just practically all the people who where in kim's high school is actually in her college as well and Barkin now works there as well.
