They drove around for a bit before Kim stopped at a diner.

"Hang tight for a bit," the redhead said. "I'm going to get us dinner."

She was gone before Shego could react.

Dinner?

To go?

From a diner?

On a first date?

Once the take-out boxes were in the backseat, the duo were then on their way.

"Kim..."

"We're almost there. Just another five minutes."

They arrived in a deserted parking lot of some sort. Adjacent to it was a vast empty field. Were they at a park? It looks deserted, Shego thought.

Kim got out of the car and Shego followed suit. Kim took out what seemed like a few blankets from the trunk and grabbed the take-out boxes. Wordlessly motioning Shego to follow, she briskly walked into the field.

They walked in silence - the only sounds that could be heard were the take-out boxes shuffling as Kim walked further and further.

Then, she stopped.

"Look." The redhead had put down the blankets and boxes next to a tree and was pointing straight ahead.

Shego had never seen a more beautiful sight.

They were standing on top of a hill. The horizon was illuminated by the city lights below.

"Where are we?"

"Middleton Hills. It overlooks the city."

"It's beautiful," Shego murmured. It had been a while since she actually went outside and explored the city, but she had never come across these hills.

"The sun already set, but you should see what it's like during sunrise and sunset - the colours are gorgeous."

Shego turned her head and noticed that Kim had laid out the blankets and was setting up the food. She walked over and helped out her date.

Kim smiled sheepishly as she handed Shego a box. "Sorry I didn't tell you where we were going."

Shego shook her head. "It's fine, I like surprises. I just never knew a place like this existed. How far out are we from the city?"

Kim pondered for a bit. "Maybe about five miles out? We're sort of in the outskirts - high enough to see the lights below."

"It's a good view. How'd you manage to find a place like this?" Shego laughed. "You take all your first dates up here?"

Kim bit her lip. She murmured a "Not really, no... You're probably the first person I've brought up here."

Shego noticed the change in demeanor and decided not to pursue the subject. Instead, she took a bite out of her lasagna and groaned in pleasure. "This is delicious. You're going to have to tell me where this diner is... I didn't really pay attention about where we were going..." She grinned and added, "Kind of too focused staring at my pretty date."

Kim laughed. "Good save. The diner is called Giovanni's. Mostly Italian food but he also has burgers and stuff." She put down her box of food and shuffled closer to Shego.

Noticing that they were practically sitting shoulder to shoulder, Shego put an arm around the redhead as they sat in silence. It was so peaceful just looking at the horizon of city lights, so peaceful that words couldn't even describe what either woman felt.

Kim finally broke the silence.

"I usually come up here to think."

Author's Notes: I know it's been a while, but Merry Christmas (if you celebrate)! :) Happy holidays!

What exactly does Kim think about up here?
