Into the unknown
Chapter 1
It happened again last night. That dream again. Or nightmare would be a better word. Only cause it scares her awake every time she has it. It's the same nightmare she's had since starting high school. It's me trying to talk to a red head girl and explain to her that she is in love with her. All that had done was enrage the red head to the point she started to throw a punch to the brunettes face. She punched her in her nose first, which started bleeding immediately. Crying , she begins begging the red head to stop. But to no avail. The red head throws another punch to the brunette. This time it's to her right eye.
That's the point in the dream that causes Bonnie Rockwaller to bolt straight up. Sweat is rolling down her face as she hold her hands to her face. Feeling, just in case she has blood running down her nose or that her eyes is not bruised or swollen shut. Breathing heavily. She feels nothing wrong and lays back down. Thinking to herself with tears in her eyes. "This has got to stop. I can't live like this. I have to talk to Kim. If nothing more than to end these dreams." As she turns to look at her alarm clock on her night stand. "Well it's almost six a.m. Might as well get up and get a shower before school."
The bell rings at school signaling that the school day is about to begin. Walking through the hall, Bonnie is holding her books for her first class against her chest. She has her head down and looking so sad as she sees Kim at her locker. Ron isn't there, just Kim by herself getting her books out of the locker. The brunette takes a deep breath, and walks right up to the red hairs teen hero. Kim spins around and sees Bonnie behind her. "Bonnie. Are you okay? You look different."
With best quiet voice Bonnie leans into Kim. "I need to talk to you please."
"Bonnie, I think that's the first time you ever used please to me. Is there something wrong?" Asked the red heard.
"Look, I just need to talk to you. Please? I don't need to explain anymore than that ok?" The brunette cheerleader states as she looks at Kim with her eyes puffy and a serious tone to her voice.
Kim looks at Bonnie quizzical at first, then notices the tears welling up in her eyes as if pleading for help. "Ok Bonnie. After school at my house if that's ok?"
Bonnie sniffles and wipes her tears away. " Ok. That would be great. I'll see you then." And she runs of to first period. Leaving Kim to wonder, what could be so important, that co captain of the cheer squad would even consider asking to talk to her in private. It must be bad whatever it is. Kim turn and heads to her first period.
After last bell of the school day, Kim is on her way to her car when Ron catches up to her. "Hey KP. Are we on our way to Bueno Nacho?"
"Actually I have to get straight home today. I have a dr. appointment, and I need to change." She explains to her best friend.
Cheery as ever, "Oh no problem KP. I'll see you tomorrow." Ron says as he head of to his favorite restaurant, with his other friend Felix.
After Ron left, Bonnie walks up to Kim, "Hey Kim, can I ride with you to your house?"
"Sure Bonnie. Hop in." The hero teen replies.
"I heard what you said to Ron. Thank you." The brunette smiles to Kim. "I mean, you just lied to your best friend just to talk to me."
"It's no big Bonnie. Sometimes somethings are more important than hanging out at Bueno Nacho everyday." Kim smiles at the brunette. True to form they head out to Kim's house. Once there, they head straight for Kim room cause no rents were home. Closing the door behind her she turns straight to Bonnie. "Ok girl, spill. Tell me what's so important, that I dropped everything so we can talk?"
Bonnie looking around at Kim's room, sit on her bed while Kim swings her chair around to sit in it backwards. "I...have...a...secret...crush." She steamers out slowly.
"What? You have a crush? That's so not the drama Bonnie!" Kim explained. Dropping an arm off the back of her chair.
"How about that it's a girl I have the crush on?" Bonnie replied snarkally. "Does that make a difference to you?" She shot back at Kim.
The hero teen suddenly had a shocked expression. "Bonnie! Your gay? I..I thought you and Brick had, you know, did the deed?"
"No! We never did cause I didn't want to. I've known since middle school I was different, from the other girls in school, cause I never found men attractive." Bonnie, thinking back, only had feelings for one girl in particular. And that is the red head in front of her. She noticed Kim right away with all her talents in gymnastics, and cheer leading. Plus she heard that the teen hero also played guitar and sang. Her grades were straight A's. She could do everything. Even outshine anyone else in school. And that was what caused Bonnie to lash out at the young red head all the time. Nobody got any credit for what they could do. Maybe now is the perfect time to voice this.
"Kim, I have to say this before we go further into this. I'm sorry for all the tormenting of you I did. I didn't really hate you, you know. I was mad at you. You are so perfect in everything you do, it over shadowed everything I can do. You got all the attention, while the rest of us never got the credit we deserved. " Bonnie stated with facts. Every cheer she could think of, Kim had one better, and that is how Bonnie lost her position as cheer captain.
The teen hero listened intently, as the brunette continued to explain how she felt about the way the red head had just been to good at everything. Which caused Bonnie to pick up her game. She started out for years only having C's and D's through school till Kim showed up, that's when she buckled down and studied harder. Now her grades were A's and B's. But still never got recognized for all her hard work every year.
"Bonnie, I'm sorry about that. I never even thought about what anyone else thought. I was just being me. Doing my best even with the missions, I still managed a straight A grade average. I didn't know I was a bother to anyone else but you." Kim had her head down on her arm as she continued to talk to Bonnie about het feelings. "I didn't know you felt this way. I so sorry Bonnie I truly am."
Bonnie reaches out to touch and hold Kim's arm. "It's ok. I mean it was just my observation of you. You can't help but be the person you are. I just took it a personal shot, and made it my mission to make your life miserable. I should have just talk you and became friends. Maybe you could of helped me with my grades and been study partners. Oh, it was me trying to live up to my sisters and their food chain logic. It's not worth me doing anything like that. They are never gonna going to except me no matter what I do. So now, I feel bad for everything I put you through." She concluded as a tears were starting to form in her eyes.
Kim jumps up from her chair and sits down next to the brunette, giving her a hug as her high school rival just started to sob in her shoulder. "Bonnie, it's ok. I won't hold it against you. I have met your sisters, remember? You don't need to try to be excepted by them. Their just to shallow even for you. You don't need to be like them to be happy. Just be you." She said as she wipes a tear from the brunettes eyes.
Sniffling a bit as she pulls her self up off of Kim. "Thank you. That means a lot. Now, I need to tell you who I have a crush on." See looks deep into the green orbs of the cheer captain. "It you. I have a crush on you. I know you probably don't feel the same way. But I had to finally tell you cause of my dreams I've been having lately." The brown eyed cheerleader.
Kim just stares at the brunette with a curious look in her eyes. "Me? You have a crush on me?" Asking while trying to make it all work out in her head that Bonnie must be mistaken. "Bonnie? Why me? What is so special about me? I not nearly as pretty as you are. I don't know if I could even kiss another female." The teen hero stands up, turns to look at Bonnie sitting on the bed. Tears are streaming down her face. "Bonnie, I would never beat you up for having feelings for me. I never hit you with all the other stuff you said to me. Why would I do it now? Bonnie, I only beat up villains."
"Yeah yeah I know. It was just a stupid dream." Bonnie replies. Still not understanding what it all meant. "I knew you would say that. But you know, the dream just feels so real. I was scared to talk you about what I'm feeling for you." Tears are streaming down her cheeks again as she tries to get the answer to her most prying question. "You didn't say if you could see us together? Are you upset with me now?"
"No. Bonnie, I'm flattered you have feelings for me. I just never thought about girls like that though. I would love to be friends though. If that is an option for us. I really don't like fighting with you everyday. It so the drama." Kim says, while walking around her room, trying not to look at Bonnie.
Bonnie, feeling the pain of Kim's rejection, goes back and sits on the bed, still trying not to fall apart. "I understand. I don't like it, but I do understand. I just poured my heart out to you and got shot down in flames. I should have known that I was just going to embarrass myself." Bonnie holding head in her hands, crying hard, tears running down her face, snot coming out her nose.
Kim grabs some tissues for Bonnie, as she sits next to her on the bed, hand the tissue to the brunette, then wraps her arms around the dark eyed cheerleader. " Bonnie, don't feel that way. I know it took a lot of courage to come to me and tell me that. Don't cry Bonnie. I do care about you though. Like I do any of my other friends. I'll always be there for you when ever you need me. Even if it's to shoot the shit with you."
Bonnie, through tears, look at Kim, " Kim! You just swore. I thought you were to good for that kind of language?"
"Not really. Everyone one, at one time or another, uses colorful language from time to time. I'm no different. Plus, I'm 18 now so my 'rents don't mind anymore. It's a respect thing I guess. I try not to use words like that very often. Kim relied, while still sitting with Bonnie, their arms wrapped around each other.
" You know what Kim?," Bonnie asks, "This feels so nice to be in your arms. Not the way I would like to feel, but close enough." She says before sitting up a little. They both are just starring at each others eyes. A sudden knock on the door to bring them back to reality.
"Kim, are you home sweetie?" The voice of Ann Possible comes through the door.
"Yeah mom, I'm home." The teen hero tells her mother on the other side of the door.
Just then the door opens and she sees Kim sitting on her bed with Bonnie. Oh, sorry. I didn't know you had company. Hello Bonnie, I would ask how are you today? But by the look on you face and your tear stained cheeks, I would say your doing so hot. Is there something I can help you with?
"It's ok mom, I think I got this." The redhead tells her mother. Until Bonnie speaks up and tells Ann just what has been bothering her.
"I was just telling Kim here about the feelings I have for her. It's no big." Said Bonnie, trying not to cry again. "She was letting me down as easy as she can. It just hurts that I finally tell her how much she means to me, and she doesn't feel the same. That's all." The brunette said, with more tears streaming down her face.
Ann listened very close to what Bonnie has just said. "Oh Bonnie, you poor girl. I didn't know you were a lesbian? I don't Kimmie cub swings that way."
The brown eyed cheerleader has a quizzical look on her face. "I understand. But how does she know she doesn't like girls if she never dated one before?"
"You know what Bonnie, your right about that." Ann told the girl before looking at Kim. "It's up to you Kimmie. I won't be upset if you find out you do like girls. I'll support you no matter what."
Bonnie looks into The redheads eyes, "What do you say Kim? Will you give me at least one date night? If only to see if we can make a connection. Kimmie, I'm begging you, please go out with me this weekend. If you feel nothing after that, I won't bring it up again." Holding on to Kim's hand, looking her straight in the eyes with a pleading look. Turn her face into a extreme puppy dog pout.
"Argh. Don't do that. That's my thing." The teen hero said, trying not to stare at the brunettes eyes. "Ok ok, I'll go on a date with you. Just stop looking at me like that. I can't resist it."
Ann lets out a few chuckles at the girls. She can see how Bonnie is looking at her Kimmie Cub. But still, she can't believe this is about to happen. She is hoping that Kim would be like Bonnie. After all, she wants grand kids before she gets much older.
"What am I supposed to wear on this date? I have a lot of really nice dresses. Or should we just dress casual?" The hero asks of the brunette in front of her.
"I don't know yet. This is so spur of the moment thing. I, I need to go home and think about it. I'll let you know before the weekend." Bonnie, looking at Kim, finally smiling.
Kim was now the one who is on the nervous side. She has never gone on a date with a girl before. Oh, sure, she hung out with her other female friends lots of times. But never like dating dated. And what if she finds out she likes girls in that way? But then, what about Bon Bon? How will she feel if she doesn't like dating girls. This so confusing right now.
"Um Kim? Can I get a ride home please?" Bonnie asks, still feeling a bit more uplifted that when she got here.
"Sure Bonnie. Let me get my bag." Answered Kim, still not convinced this date idea was even going to work out for her.
On the ride over to Bonnie's house, Bonnie was listening to the radio. She didn't know that Kim listened to country music like she did RB. Keith Urban was playing on the radio, something about being ready to love somebody, love somebody like you. Not only did the song have acoustic guitar, but electric guitar to. But what she heard the most was the banjo that was playing in the song. It wasn't all that bad to listen to. Bonnie never listened to country music before. It was ok, but not what she would call good music. Maybe if she tried listening to it more often, she might actually like it.
Once they arrived at Bonnie's house, they just sat in Kim's car for a moment in silence before Bonnie asked, "Kim, are you really ok with this? I mean, you don't have to go through with it if you don't want to?"
Kim still just looking out the windshield, "No bonnie. It's ok. We will do this. But, what happens if it doesn't go the way you think it will? What if I'm still not interested of the date? Will you go back to hating me, like before, when we weren't talking to each other, other than just to insult one another?" These were the serious questions that the hero needed to know before the date on Friday.
"I, I don't know." Bonnie replied trying not to believe that Kim would not like the date. But she has until Friday night to come up with a plan for their date. "I guess if you don't have a good time, or start at least having feelings for me, then I guess we will have to agree to stay friends. But just so you know, either way, I'll still have these feelings for you. It might be hard for me at first, but I didn't apologize to you just to go back to the same old same old. I want to be a better Bonnie. Not just for you, but for everyone. I don't want to be the same Bonnie that everyone hates cause I'm such a bitch."
Kim reaches over and grabs Bonnie's hand. "Well at least I get to be the first one to see this new Bonnie." She smiled at the brunette. And with that Bonnie grabs her things to get out of the car. But before she gets out, she leans over and gives the redhead a quick kiss on her cheek. " See you tomorrow at school." The brown eyed girl says as she gets out of the car and heads for her house. Kim just holds her cheek wondering what the hell had just happened?
