I receive nothing for the writing of this story.

This is a Kim and Ron Fanfic.

Humble pie tastes terrible, even when it is served piping hot. One of my favorite compliments that I enjoy receiving is my attention to details. It's something that I have always worked hard to maintain in my stories because if it's not believable, how could I keep your attention or why would you want to read them?

I'd like to thank the following people for sharing their thoughts with me on my conundrum.

That said, this was never meant to be portray an actual Jewish wedding. It was supposed to represent one or at least give the flavor of one. I have found that some of the facts, customs and traditions I have used in this story, I have, in my own ignorance, misrepresented and taken out of context, mixing one branch of Judaism with another. Sort of like having the Pope conduct a baptism for a Southern Baptist Church in the middle of a local lake or stream. In another words, "It ain't a gonna happen this way in the real world."
Ignorance is my only defense. Most of the knowledge I have gained about it come from various articles and descriptions I found on the internet. Unfortunately they were concerning totally different branches and parts of them have already been woven into this story and are necessary for it.

"The problem with quotes on the Internet is that you can't always be sure of their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

This is a work of fiction. The branch of Judaism that the Stoppable family belongs to is fictional in some of its ways, but I have always treated their religion with the respect. Their customs are a part of the real world religion, they just don't fit together exactly the same way they do in this story. If that offends any one, I am truly sorry because that was never my intent in writing this.

Almost, I repeat almost, all of the recent fan fiction I have read or artwork I have seen concerning the wedding has been about a Christian or a non denominational ceremony and I am trying to show a different perspective of it, and show what could have happened when it's Kim's and Ron's wedding.

Note;
I found I made two other mistakes in the previous chapter. Old age I guess. Anyway, Kim's eye twitch or tick was actually lip quivering in the episode I'm using for the base of her problem. For this story though, it was eye twitching.

I also forgot to have them sign their Ketubah before Ron lowers her veil. I will rewrite it later to include that omission but I will cover what it is and a little bit of its contents in this one. My bad.

Once again, James Possible is not as clueless a person as I made him appear to be in this chapter as in the previous chapter. I needed someone to have to explain things to.

I really think he will be an hour early to the next wedding rehearsal he needs to go to.

Previously

Looking back, Ron saw the double doors open, framing Kim and her father, with his father, Ann and Lonnie directly behind them. Behind them were Kim's bride's maids. Hanna moved to in front of the group as she was ready to do her part as the flower girl.

Even from that distance and through her veil, Ron could swear he could see her eye tick get worse as her father gave the signal for the music to start so they could make their entrance and begin the rest of their lives together.

As the Music started to play the introduction to the song, Hanna moved up to about five feet in front of Kim and her father after dropping a few of the flower petals in front of them. She then waited for Britina to start singing while Britina was waiting for Kim and James to take their first step.

Moments previously

As the group was moving towards the doors, Kim was trying to clear her head of the machine gun pace way the day had gone so far and she only had a few seconds left so she would have to do it at that same pace.

The thing with her father, she would have to remember to ask Ron what that was all about and make sure she thanked him for whatever it was that he did to make her father feel good about it, was over. Joss's problem, which really wasn't a problem if she had had someone to talk to about it, someone female that is, who could understand some of the pressures that young girl goes through sometimes when dealing with boys that some of them want only one thing and after they get it are off to brag about it to their friends, who if you just take your time and don't worry about it, you'll find the right one that you'd want to give it to instead of give it up to, like Josh was trying to get her to do way early in high school when she wasn't even comfortable with a hug and a kiss at the same time with yet, when all she was looking for was a friend to try and maybe start learning about that sort of thing. Dealing with Monique and her being a self proclaim Queen of the fashion world, just because she has a lush job working with Coco Banana, over the pair of shoes and who's wedding was it anyway that she thought she had a right to try and tell her what she should or should not wear. Thankfully Joss came to her rescue on that, but Joss rhymes with Josh and that bastard and what he did to Tara when she was so trusting of that damn snake in the grass, but when they get together, meaning her, Ron, Shego and Tara, will find a way to take care of getting him to sign those papers and be gratefully for the chance to do so and maybe, maybe get out of there with his hide mostly intact, but I wouldn't bet on it because they will all have time to come up with a plan since he won't be back till Friday, but Tara had made her promise to forget about that till after tomorrow since today was their wedding day so she had better start or else everything will ruin it and she really didn't want her and Ron to start their lives off that way and it would have all been her fault, even though she was sure Ron wouldn't hold it against her and he would forgive her but she did want everything to be perfect so she had better do what she promised because she always tried to live up to her word so she just had to put everything to the back of her mind and forget about it till later because she was getting married right now, please and thank you.

Taking a deep cleansing breath, she had just started to let it out as she looked up and saw all the people that were sitting in the center waiting for her to make her entrance. She didn't even have time to fully exhale before the pianist started playing the introduction to the song and all of the guests turned in their seats and were looking at her.

"Oh My God!" she thought to herself as her eyes went bug eyed. They were all looking at her.

All of the pre wedding jitters that she had denied herself, never had time for because she was dealing with so many other things, hit her all at once.

And she froze, rooted to the floor, paralyzed.

She froze as solid and as unyielding as the iceberg that sank the RMS Titanic on April 15th, 1912. (A question worth 10 extra points on one of Mr. Barkin's pop history quizzes, which she aced.)

Trip, trip, trip went her mental circuit breakers as everything shutdown as she stood there holding on to her father's arm, unable to move or talk.

Smiling as he patted her hand, her father asked her, "Ready to go meet your very soon-to-be-husband Kimmie Cub?"

When he got no response from her, he asked again. When he still got no response, he tried shaking her hand a little as said "Kim?" Her hand didn't move.

Looking back to his wife with a concerned and worried look, Ann put her hand on Kim's shoulder and gave it a brief shake to try and bring her out of her stupor. That didn't work either.

When pianist saw that the bride's entourage hadn't started moving, instead of playing the main part of the song and have Britina start singing, she paused and started playing the intro again from the beginning.

While the intro was being played a second time, Ron saw that what he had feared was actually happening. For whatever reason or reasons, Kim was paralyzed. Paralyzed with her nervous fear. He had only seen it happen one other time since they had started going out on missions and it started out with that same eye twitch. That was the day he had made a new friend, Roachie. Well, he was more like a shiny puppy with a hard exterior shell, but the little guy ended up saving him from getting stepped on by his much bigger brother.

As the rabbi looked at Ron to see if he knew what the problem was, Ron was looking back at his best man to give him a nod.

Having finished playing the intro through twice, instead of starting over for the third time, the pianist waited for another sign from the bride's father. Meanwhile, the guests that had just been looking at Kim started whispering to each other wondering what could be the problem. James, now hearing the murmuring coming from them would glance in their direction and try to give a reassuring smile before continuing to try to pull Kim out of her trance.

It was then that Kim, almost in slow motion, started to turn her head to him, her eyes still held a blank and vacant look as they met her father's for a moment before her gaze drifted down to his jacket pocket. As he saw her gaze drop down he noticed a sound coming from his right jacket pocket.

"Beep Beep Be Beep."

"Beep Beep Be Beep."

"Beep Beep Be Beep."

Reaching quickly into his pocket, he pulled out the Kimmunicator that Ron had asked him to carry in that pocket. Pushing the acknowledge button, he held it up to Kim so she could see it. Her eyes immediately turned to it.

"Kim! You got a hit on the site."

Blinking once, Kim stammered out, "What...stich...am?"

"It's Ron, Kim. He needs to know something."

Blinking twice this time, but still with the same vacant stare, she asked, "Ron? Need...what...know...he...does...to?"

"He's standing all by himself up here Kim and he wants to know if you still want to marry your sidekick."

Closing her eyes, she gave her head a slight shake to clear the cobwebs as her mind rebooted. Grabbing the Kimmunicator from her father, she said to it, "He's not my Sidekick! He's my partner!" She immediately started to scan the crowd, looking for him, no longer seeing them as a bunch of individual people. Now she was only seeing them as a bunch of "not hims."

"And you can remind him..." she started with an annoyed tone to her voice as she continued looking for him till she spotted the blond haired, big eared goofball standing dead ahead of her.

And he was looking more handsome that she could ever have imagined, with a gentle, yet hopeful smile on his face.

Taking a short breath and in a much calmer and softer tone and with a small smile on her face, she told Wade. "Never mind, I'll tell him as soon as I get up there to join him."

"And Wade, thank you."

Handing the Kimmunicator back to her now relieved father, she said, "Daddy? Can we try it again please? I promise I won't embarrass you this time."

"Kimmie." he said as he offered her his arm. "You could never embarrass me."

And once again he gave the signal for the music to start. "Besides, you should have seen what your mother did as she was being escorted down the aisle." A quick and not so gentle nudge from behind told him that Ann was reminding him that he had sworn an oath to her to never speak of that moment again. Ever again.

As the introduction ended, both father and daughter led off with their right feet as they started down the aisle, in a slow and stately pace, with the rest of the entourage behind.

(Music; Everytime We Touch by Cascada. The slow version.)

"I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why Without you it's hard to survive.

Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
Cause every time we touch, I feel the static.
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry.
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.

Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side."

The procession stopped as they had reached the end of the seats. Her parents and uncle go off to their side to sit down as does Ron's parents. The bride's maids move off and split going to either side of the Huppah to join the twins and Felix who moved up after the bride started moving up the aisle.

"'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static.
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

Every time we touch, I get this feeling.
And every time we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.

When Kim is left standing by herself, she move up and circles Ron three times, to represent the three virtues of marriage: righteousness, justice and loving kindness. By the time the music has finished with an added little bit to allow Kim the time to finish her circles, she stops and together, she and Ron move to just in front of the wedding canopy and they then turn to face the people.

'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static.
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life."

She whispered to Ron as they looked out at the crowd, "I am so, so sorry Ron. I guess I..."

"It's okay Kim. You're here now."

"But I don't want …"

The rabbi came over and while standing in front of the couple turned his back to the crowd so he could face Kim and Ron. This effectively cut off the crowd's vision of the couple.

"Kimberly? Is everything alright?" rabbi Katz asked with a gentle and concerned look on his face.

"Rabbi, I'm so sorry. It's been a really hectic day and I guess I my nerves finally got the better of me. I...I froze. I'm just worried that people will think I had second thought about marring Ron and I don't want anyone to ever think such a thing."

"Kim, I don't care about them or what they think. All I care about is what you think."

"I know, but I never want to do say or do anything else to ever hurt you or..."

"Okay, now please listen to me." interrupted the rabbi in a compassionate voice. "You two, Rufus and Mr. Loade have made it your specialty of saving the world, almost on a weekly basis, but none of you have ever asked for anything in return. I may not be able to save the world like you have done, but let me try and salvage a small piece of it for you two, today anyway. That is my specialty. You two still want to get married today, right?"

After both of them gave him the answer that he was expecting them to give, he slowly turned to face the guests. He took a couple of steps from the couple while looking at a space about five feet in front of him. When he stopped, he looked up, smiled and said, "Ever have a wardrobe mishap happen to you at the most inopportune time? One that could freeze you with worry thinking that the whole world would see a part of you that you were saving for only your husband to see on your wedding night?"

All the guests let out a collective sigh along with a few chuckles as some remembered something similar that had happened to them, but they now had an explanation concerning what caused her hesitation. Even the Possibles and Stoppables laughed softly.

(Please remember that the good rabbi never said that was what happened to Kim. He just asked if it had ever happened to any of them.)

Rabbi Katz looked down at that spot on the floor again for a few moments and when he raised his head, he said, "A priest, a minister and a rabbi were walking down the street one day. Stop me if you've heard this one before. (Light laughter filled the hall.) What a mixed group they must have been." He waited for the chuckles to subside. "A mixed group of people that all had the same job. Each one of them goes about it in a different way but they all had the same goal, (pause) helping people. As I look out at all of your faces today, I see an even greater variety of people. I see world leaders and I see people that not to long along tried to over throw those leaders and rule our world. I see scientists, doctors, bankers and even an actuary. I see heads of multimillion dollar corporations and people that are happy with just owning a single fishing boat or a crop duster. There are people here that are in law enforcement, (pause) and I see others that are making sure that they don't sit too close to them." Once again he waited for the laughter to end.

"Yet with all of the diversity of people sitting in this hall today, we have all come together for the same purpose, to celebrate the marriage of these two young people."

"Two people that have made it their life's work to, (pause) help people. It never mattered to them on what scale they were doing it. Helping a little old lady get her cat out of a tree or saving the world from an alien invasion. Helping a friend or helping a total stranger, who later became a friend. It was all the same to them."

"This ceremony, like all of us here, is sort of like those three clergy people. In case you aren't aware of it, James." He said as he looked directly at James Possible, "the Jewish faith has many branches to it, much like the Christian faith which has Roman Catholics, Greek Orthodox, and Presbyterians which is divided into even more parts. There are Hassidic, Traditional Orthodox, Modern Orthodox, Conservative, Reconstructionist and Reform Jews. Now, Kimberly wanted some elements of the Jewish faith that are not strictly of one branch of Judaism that she found while surfing the internet, so this ceremony, although Jewish in nature, is a blend that is all theirs. I only added a few things to allow it to come fully under Jewish law so it would be recognized as a proper Jewish marriage. I can think of a couple of things that they probably wished I'd left out."

After the mild laughter, he continued. "I would like to read something from their Ketubah at this time, which if you don't know," and here he looked at James again with a smile on his face. "can be described as a marriage contract, marriage license, or prenuptials all rolled into one, plus. It defines the relationship in terms of their commitments, what their goals are for themselves as individuals and as a couple. What they plan to do in their lives. In ancient times, it was a way to keep the man from divorcing his wife for whatever reason, which was legal in Talmudic times. An amount was to be paid to the wife if the man divorced her, was 200 zuz for a first time bride and 100 zuz for women who were divorced or widowed. These amounts were by no means negligible since an average house in Talmudic times could be bought for 50 zuz. You can well imagine what that sum would be today based on the price of house.

Reading from the Ketubah, "Deriving strength from each other and these circles, we will continue to work for equality, together exploring the boundaries beyond the gender roles, pursue justice and peace, in the lives of those with whom we connect. No walls or boundaries will surround our house from the just or needy. Only from the wicked or those seeking to spread disharmony for their own pleasure or profit." Basically, "We will try to do good and have each other's backs, as well as that of our families and friends."

After he paused again, he said looking at all the face of the guests and the wedding party, "A priest, a minister and a rabbi. (pause) Maybe they're not so different after all."

"Well, I think I've held up the young couple's wedding long enough. They are probably a little anxious for me to get things moving along."

"Oh and one more thing." he said as he stopped and turned back to the guests. "If you didn't know, the custom is to shout "Mazel Tov!" which means congratulations after Ronald break the glass with his foot. And yes, this is something that he is suppose to break. Not like his parent's front window so many years ago as he was showing Kim how to throw a knuckle ball."

He then turned and with the couple, proceeded under the Huppah where there was a small table with two glasses half filled with wine. They stood in a position so that the Huppah pole holders would bear witness to all of their actions.

Rabbi Katz then recited a blessing over a cup of wine and a second blessing of sanctification over the marriage. Both the Kim and Ron drank from the cup.

The rabbi then asked Ron who has the ring. After patting his jacket pockets one time, Ron smiled and reached inside his jacket and retrieved the ring without stabbing himself with the safety pin he would be pleased to say later on. As he placed the ring on her right index finger as he looked into her eyes and he said, "Harey at mekuddeshet li B'taba'at zo k'dat Moshe V'israel. Behold, thou art consecrated unto me with this ring according to the Law of Moses and of Israel."

Rabbi Katz then looked to Kim and asked, "And does the bride have a ring for the groom?"

Smiling, Kim carefully removed a large ring from the stems of her bouquet. It was just like the one that Ron had just placed on her finger, a plain solid uninterrupted gold ring with no holes, settings or engraved designs on it to break the continuing circle with no end, the continuity of the ring represented the hope for an everlasting marriage. The only difference in her's was its size, she thought to herself. His was much bigger. She smiled again as she remembered Shego's reference to men with big hands and feet. She could almost fit three rings her size inside his.

Looking into his eyes, she said, "Ani l'dodi, ve dodi li." I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine."

Rabbi Katz then read the Ketubah aloud. He then handed it to Kim for her safe keeping.

(I will post their Ketubah at some point at the end of the story as an "Afterwards.")

Ron then recited the Sheva Brachot, or seven special blessings in honor of the wedding. As he recited them in Hebrew, Rabbi Katz noticed that as a lot of people will sometimes slip or stumble over some of the ancient words, Ron's pronunciation was perfect.

When it was Kim's turn, after she recited one of the blessings, also in Hebrew, Ron would repeat it in English, so they could share them with the people that didn't speak Hebrew.

"Barukh ata Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha-olam, bo'rei p'ri hagafen."

"Blessed are You, LORD, our God, sovereign of the universe, who creates the fruit of the vine."

"Barukh ata Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha-olam shehakol bara lichvodo."

"Blessed are You, LORD, our God, sovereign of the universe, who created everything for His Glory."

"Barukh ata Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha-olam, yotzer haa'dam."

"Blessed are You, LORD, our God, sovereign of the universe, who creates man."

"Barukh ata Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha-olam, asher yatzar et ha-adam b'tzalmo, b'tzelem d'mut tavnito, v'hitkin lo mimenu binyan adei ad. Baruch atah Adonai, yotzeir ha-adam."

"Blessed are You, LORD, our God, sovereign of the universe, who creates man in your image*, fashioning perpetuated life. Blessed are You, LORD, creator of man."

"Sos tasis v'tageil ha-akara b'kibutz baneha l'tocha b'simcha. Baruch ata Adonai, m'sameach Tzion b'vaneha."

"May the barren one exult and be glad as her children are joyfully gathered to her. Blessed are You, LORD, who gladden Zion with her Children."

"Sameiach tesamach reiim ha-ahuvim k'sameichacha y'tzircha b'gan eden mikedem. Baruch ata Adonai, m'sameiach chatan v'chalah."

"Grant perfect joy to these loving companions, as you did your creations in the Garden of Eden. Blessed are You, LORD, who grants the joy of groom and bride."

"Baruch ata Adonai Eloheinu melech ha-olam, asher bara sason v'simcha chatan v'kallah, gilah rinah ditzah v'chedvah, ahavah v'achavah v'shalom v'reut. M'hera Adonai Eloheinu yishammah b'arei Yhudah uv-chutzot Y'rushalayim kol sason v'kol simcha, kol chatan v'kol kalah, kol mitzhalot chatanim meichupatam u-n'arim mimishte n'ginatam. Baruch ata Adonai, m'sameiach chatan im hakalah."

"Blessed are You, LORD, our God, sovereign of the universe, who created joy and gladness, groom and bride, mirth, song, delight and rejoicing, love and harmony and peace and companionship. Soon, LORD our God, may there ever be heard in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem voices of joy and gladness, voices of groom and bride, the jubilant voices of those joined in marriage under the bridal canopy, the voices of young people feasting and singing. Blessed are You, LORD, who causes the groom to rejoice with his bride."

Trying very hard to hold back their joy of knowing that they had just "nailed it big time," they drank some of the wine from the second glass that the blessings had been said over. Looking to the rabbi, the saw the same joy and pride that they felt, mirrored in his face as he whispered. "One more thing to do Ronald and then you can get something to eat."

Ron gave him an embarrassed smile. Everyone close to them had heard Ron's stomach complaining at having been teased by the small sips of wine and nothing else of more substance, like four of five Nachos with a side order of everything, grande sized.

Taking a third wine glass, Rabbi Katz carefully and tightly wrapped it in a large towel and after tucking the edges in around it, laid it on the floor for all to see. He then nodded to Ron.

Ron had wondered before this moment if, just to keep true to his essential Ron-ness, he should miss the glass a couple of times. But then, he thought that was back when he was by himself. Well, him, Rufus and KP. This was a different time now. He and Kim would be together as one. Each other's bashert. (Yiddish meaning one's soul mate.)

Best to know when to let his essential Ron-ness out to play and when to let it sleep in his back pocket.

As his foot came down on the glass, shattering it, the rabbi's hands went up as he then shouted "Mazel Tov!" The word was repeated by all those in attendance less than half a second after the rabbi. Mr. Thud, who was across the street applying some ice to his shoulder, heard it plainly and softly repeated it to himself with a smile, hoping no one would notice.

All of the press waiting outside in hopes of catching a few words from the couple, they had been forbidden to cover or photograph the wedding itself, heard the word, they repeated it. Some, not so softly.

As an old man, sitting in his morning meditation in a school on top of a mountain in Yamanouchi, Japan, opened his eyes, smiled and quietly said. "Mazel Tov! Stoppable-sans. Mazel Tov."

As the newly married couple were leaving the Huppah to walk the aisle together, the rabbi held them up for moment as he addressed the guests, "Before the young couple retires to the Yichud, for few minutes alone before the reception, I would like to do something that's not a part of a Jewish wedding and steal a little of the best man's thunder in a way by presenting to you Mr. Ronald Adrian Stoppable and Mrs. Kimberly Ann Stoppable." After the cheers and applause died down, the rabbi continued saying. "Please remember that there will be no receiving line to go through here. That will be at the reception which will start in about an hour. You should all have the directions on the back of your invitations."

With that, Kim and Ron waited for the groom's party and the bride's party to form a line behind them as they walked out of the room the same way they entered.

After they had left and as the guests were filing out, the rabbi came down to talk to their families as they gathered right in front of him. From the look on James's face, Rabbi Katz knew he had at least one more thing to explain to him.

"James. The Yichud means "togetherness" or "seclusion." It refers to the Ashkenazi practice of leaving the bride and groom alone for 10 or 20 minutes after the wedding ceremony. It gives them a chance to break their fast. Going to the private room is a symbolic consummation of the marriage, as if the husband is bringing the wife into his home."

"Consummation of the marriage? Here?" was James's startled reaction.

"James. From the sounds that young Ronald's stomach was making up there, I don't believe that that will be the first thing on his mind to take care of." said the rabbi chuckling to himself.

"No." said Lonnie. "We stopped and got five of those Nachos just for him besides something for Kim. The Nachos were a special order. No onions."

James, looking even more confused by that, said, "But Ron loves onions on his Nachos. I've seen him order extra when we took him out for dinner."

"Yes." said Ann. "But Kim doesn't, especially second hand onions."

Seeing the perplexed look on his face, she added, "Come on dear. I'll explain it to you tonight after all of our house guests are asleep." as she led him out of the room and back to their minivan.

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Inside a secluded room with the door locked, the couple kissed. When they weren't kissing, they were holding each other so that their cheeks were touching as much as they could, never losing contact with the other. Neither caring about the food or anything else at that moment. Just the chance to hold and touch one another and never having to let go.
