A/N: I haven't seen more than a few episodes of Kim Possible, so bear with me if I make too many mistakes. I will create Shego's whole family from my imagination. If You have any suggestions, complaints or really anything at all, just let me know. This will be posted at both and piece of work is (I think) strongly influenced by above all the "College"-fanfic at by ilse4302; I mean no harm or plagiarism by this and any similarities are purely coincidental.

On with Chapter 4
Shego leaned back into the chair after removing the rodent from her leg, "So you guys go here all the time?"
Kim nodded and kept watching Ron resume eating after massaging his neck a few seconds. Shego looked too for a moment and then understood her fascination. It was like watching a train wreck, horrible and sometimes disgusting, but still fascinating.
"And he eats like this all the time or what?" Shego had to force herself not to cut the boy up with verbal profanities.
Kim nodded again, "The first five years we went here, the owners spoke to him almost every time, but by now; it's almost become the trademark of Bueno Nacho."
Shego looked confused. "How the hell come?"
Ron stopped eating for a few seconds to proclaim his pride. "The Human Garbage Disposal of Bueno Nacho!" Both Kim and Shego slapped their faces in annoying hopelessness.
"He's the only one who can eat everything from their menu." Kim explained.
"It's not something to be proud of, buffoon!"
Ron shrugged an answer to Shego's outburst and resumed eating.
Kim leaned over and whispered into Shego's ear. "Rumors has it that they will raise a statue of Ron at every fast food restaurant he's ever visited."
Shego whistled. "That project's gonna put every sculptor or artist in the states to work." Kim coughed to hide a laugh and nodded eagerly. Shego grinned and whispering carried on with her favorite activity.
"But if they're going to look at his picture all the time, we're gonna run out of sick bags." Kim snorted and once again managed to barely hide a laugh.
"That was a little low, Shego…"
Shego shrugged, "I'm sure he's heard it all before if you've been here before, remember, he's the one to be proud of his 'title'." Kim sighed and slumped slightly, silently agreeing. She always tried to look after her friend as he'd always looked after her, but sometimes she would have to agree with some of the mean things said about him. She didn't think or hope he took it seriously though. Shego on the other hand got zero second thoughts of her actions, stood up and walked over to the counter, knocking on it a few times. For a few seconds, nothing happened, and then a frightened face peered over the counter. The boy 'eeped' and ducked as he saw the scowling woman loom over him. Shego wasted no time on formalities and reached over the counter and yanked the boy up to eyelevel by his collar. Unfortunately for him, Shego was the head taller than him.
"May I please order a double espresso?" Shego asked with a smile that showed her teeth in a manner that made them seem like fangs to the pimpled boy.
"Sure, ma'am…" He all but whimpered, and then poured her a cup of the steaming drink after she put him down. Shego handed him the money and flashed him again with her 'I'll bite you in the throat' grin. He boy 'eeped' and promptly fainted behind the counter.
Shego walked over to the table again and sat down next to the redhead. She sipped her coffee and then looked at Kim.
"Why is your head on the table?"
Kim moaned wearily and answered with the best shrug she could manage from her position. "Best place to keep it at the moment." A raised eyebrow almost disappeared up into the pale girl's raven hair. Ron however, declared his appetite satisfied by exclaiming a 'booya' and high-fiving Rufus. Kim looked up and sighed in relief. She sat up and looked at Shego's cup of coffee.
"That looks like a good idea."
"I think they're closed now though." Shego said off-handedly and Ron looked up.
"That's not possible, the opening and closing hours here are exactly…"
Shego cut him off. "But then they're taking a nap, anyway you can't order anything now." Kim pouted and glared at the counter.
"I don't drink coffee anyway." She said in a huff and proceeded to walk out the door. Shego looked after her confused. She looked to Ron who stood up and headed for the door. Shego stopped him.
"What's the deal with her confidence now? When I first talked to her, she was hardly saying a complete word." Ron nodded with a somewhat serious look on his face.
"Not to brag or anything, but I think that it's because of me. She's more comfortable around me than she is shy around you." Rufus leaped off the edge of the table he had been perched on and landed in Ron's pocket. The rodent crossed his arms and nodded. Shego sighed. Nothing made sense around here anymore she noted.
The moment Kim stepped out of the fast food restaurant; she realized how she had acted around Shego. Her face went a deep red color, almost matching her hair in intensity, and she leaned against the wall, burying her flushed face in her hands as her legs started to tremble. Then Shego came out, immediately spotting the redhead against the wall, and Kim spotted Shego spotted her, and the English dictionary got a new definition of 'embarrassed'. Kim wished for the second time that day that she could sink below ground level. For the second time that day, the ground ignored her and focused on making her feel worse. Shego went over to the redhead. The pale woman leaned against the wall just next to Kim. She just had one word to say.
"Chill." Shego patted the redheaded girls shoulder and Kim froze after raising an eyebrow.
"Look, I don't know why you're acting this way around me, but you don't need to do that, if I wanna be friends with someone; I don't wanna be friends with an act, got it?" It sounded as close to an order as possible without wearing a uniform that Kim actually considered a salute. She caught herself and nodded, she even managed to squeeze a smile up. Shego grinned and ruffled the red mane of hair.
"Hey!" Kim waved and tried to run off, but Shego followed her. Ron came out the doors just in time to see the girls run off down the street. Ron grinned and put up Rufus on his shoulder. Then he took off after the laughing pair who disappeared down the street.
Ann Possible, neurosurgeon and family mother, looked out the window of the Middleton Central Hospital where she sipped her coffee in the break room. It was a beautiful day outside, perfect for anything one could think of. Well, anything that didn't involved scaring each other. Ann felt that such a perfect day simply could not go on forever.
Shego chased Kim for maybe five minutes before they slowed down for a slow walk with Ron, who caught up with them heavily panting.
Kim smiled continually now, her bad mood gone like past winter, and Shego was a little annoyed. She was not one to smile without reason.
Shego couldn't take it anymore. She had to ask. "So what the hell is so funny eh?" Kim smiled brighter and shrugged.
"You're just nice to us."
"So?"
Kim swallowed and lowered her emerald eyes to the ground, staring at her shoes that slowly slapped against the sidewalk.
"Not many people are…" Shego acted oblivious as she saw Ron make a sawing motion at his throat.
"Why?" Kim shrugged, not because she didn't know, but because she didn't want to talk about it. She hoped that Shego let it go and didn't press her.
"Never mind, I just feel that I should be nice to you. You know, about this morning." Ron raised an eyebrow and Kim waved a 'tell ya later' hand at her blonde friend.
"Oh…" Kim stated, her voice going dead neutral as her mind went occupied. Shego shook her head with a smile she allowed herself to wear.
"You moron." Kim snapped her head up to face the taller woman at the remark. Shego continued along her line.
"You really think that I, after spending this time with you, would just dump you tomorrow?" Kim didn't answer and Ron put a hand to his forehead. Ron's gesture was a typical 'wrong answer' move, and Shego caught it too late. She decided to save what could be saved.
"For your information Pumpkin; I'm not that kind of person. Just chill and trust us." She motioned to herself and Ron who actually nodded seriously in return. Shego was growing annoyed with the whole situation; she was not used to being distrusted.
Kim grinned, "Are you trying to get into my mind or what?"
"You don't want me to go all psychological on your little ass, Pumpkin." Both Ron and Kim snorted and laughed at that remark.
Elsewhere, Ann Possible felt that fate really screwed her over. She never suspected that it was her day that would be spoiled. Why the hell would a neurosurgeon have to walk past a small group of recently-become mothers with sick babies? After washing her fifth dose of kid-vomit off her pants, she decided to call it a day and just leave early. There were no such things as perfect days.
