Chapter 5:
Possible Residence:
It was around midnight, when Kim finally decided to turn in for the night. It had been a fairly long day, and she was ready to crash. However, when she finally made it up to her room, she found that her bed was occupied. Shego was lying on Kim's bed, sound asleep. Kim's diary was still being held loosely in her right hand. Kim walked over to Shego and took the small book from her, placing it in a spot where she hoped Shego wouldn't find it. Kim then turned her attention back to the sleeping figure on her bed.
"Shego looks so cute when she's sleeping."
Kim had to pause for a moment, and think about what she had just said.
"Did I just use the words Shego and cute in the same sentence?"
While it was true that Shego did look cute while she slept, Kim chided herself for even saying such a thing.
"Meh, I need sleep."
Kim thought, grabbing a pillow off her bed. She then walked over to her closet, and pulled out a sleeping back. After setting up a little sleeping area for herself on the floor, Kim laid down and took one last look at Shego.
"You're lucky I'm such a nice person. Sleep tight, Shego."
Kim then closed her eyes, and fell into a deep slumber.
Meanwhile, while other people were sleeping peacefully, Dr. Drakken was still awake, decorating for the holidays.
Drakken's Apartment:
Dr. Drakken was currently in his kitchen, decorating gingerbread houses, and singing Christmas carols.
"Up on the rooftop reindeer pause, out jumps good old Santa Claus. Down through the chimney with lots of toys, all for the little ones' Christmas joys."
Drakken was in a giddy mood. Christmas was on its way, and he was decorating his place from head to toe. And aside from decorating gingerbread houses, he was also baking some cookies to take to his mom's. Now Drakken wasn't particularly fond of his mother, but this Christmas was his year for a drumstick, there was no way he'd pass it up.
"This is going to be a very Merry Christmas indeed."
Drakken thought as he put the last batch of cookies into the oven. He then left to go finish decorating the Christmas tree.
As he was hanging ornaments on the tree, a thought occurred to him.
"I wonder how Shego's doing, I should give her a call."
Drakken then set down the box of ornaments he was holding, and pulled out his cell. He then dialed Shego's number, and waited for her to answer.
Possible Residence:
The sound of a phone ringing echoed throughout Kim's room. Knowing that it was her phone, Shego got up, let out a slew of curse words, then pulled her phone from off of Kim's dresser, having placed it there after retrieving it from the leg pouch of her suit, earlier that night. Shego then looked at the caller ID and let out an exasperated sigh, before answering the call.
"Dr. D, it's the middle of the night. What the hell do you want."
"Well I hadn't heard from you, since you left with Possible and the buffoon; I was just checking to see if you were alright."
"I'm fine. However, you will not be if you ever call me in the middle of the night to wake me up again. You're lucky you're all the way in another state right now."
Shego then hung up the phone, before Drakken could even respond. She then placed the phone back onto the dresser, and laid back down on the bed. Just then, a thought occurred to her.
"Where's Kimmie at?"
Shego rolled over and looked down at the floor, spotting the sleeping redhead. Shaking her head in amusement, Shego went over to Kim and picked her up.
"I'll have you know that I'm not as much of a bitch as some people think, I can be nice at times."
Shego said, placing Kim gently onto the bed.
"Sleep tight, Princess."
Shego then grabbed her phone, before heading to the guest room.
