Chapter 12:
Possible Residence:
When Kim arrived downstairs, she found Shego and her family seated at the dining room table.
"We were wondering where you were."
James said.
"Sorry about that."
Kim said, taking a seat next to Jim.
"Is everything alright?"
James asked.
"Spankin'."
"Well, okay then. Let's eat dinner now, shall we?"
With that said, everyone began to tuck in to their meals. As everyone ate their meals, Kim couldn't help but glance at Shego from time to time. At one point, they made eye contact and blushed profusely.
"Why are the two of you blushing?"
Tim asked, noticing the looks on their faces. This caused the two women to blush even more, and look down at their plates.
"We're...uh...we're not blushing."
Kim said, trying her best to hide her nervousness.
"Yes you are, you're both as red as my drink."
Tim then pointed to the glass of fruit punch that was in front of him.
"Ahem, well we still aren't blushing."
"Yes you are, and it happened right when the two of you made eye contact with each other."
Tim's eyes then widened in shock.
"Oh my god, you totally have the hots for each other!"
Tim's sudden outburst caused James to spit out his drink. After coughing a couple of times, he spoke.
"Now Tim, it's not polite to jump to conclusions."
"Yeah, besides Kim's straight."
Jim said.
"So? Everyone has their same sex crush."
"Oh yeah, and who's yours?"
This time it was Tim's turn to blush, and he faltered a bit at his brother's question.
"Ahem, well...uh...maybe not everyone."
"Mmhm, sure."
"Oh, shut-up!"
Tim shouted, leaning in close to Jim.
"Make me!"
Jim shouted back, leaning in close as well.
"Boys, that's enough!"
James shouted, causing both boys to promptly fall back into their seats.
"Sorry."
They both mumbled.
"That's better. Now, I think it'd be best if we all got back to eating."
James said, picking his fork back up. Jim and Tim quickly followed suit, and dinner continued without any fuss.
After dinner was finished, everyone went off to do their separate things. However, the conversation from earlier had piqued Anne's curiosity, and she pulled Kim aside to talk to her.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Kim asked.
"You and Shego. Is there anything going on between the two of you?"
"Um...no."
Kim said, nervously rubbing the back of her neck.
"Kim, you can tell me anything."
"I know, but I don't think I can tell you this."
"Why not?"
"I'm pretty sure Shego would kill me if I told you."
Now Anne was really curious.
"Was what happened something bad?"
"No, not exactly."
"Was it embarrassing?"
"I don't know, I guess it could be seen as that."
Anne nodded her head in understanding. Kim then let out a sigh, and stood.
"Look, mom, I think it'd be best if I went and talked to Shego about what happened. And then, if it's okay with her I'll tell you about it."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, it's just I'm not even sure if I fully understand myself what happened, and I think it'd be best if I talked to her about it, before anyone else."
"Okay, I understand. But you have to remember, Shego's got a lot of pride. She may not be too keen to talk about what happened. So, don't be upset if she doesn't want to talk about what happened. I'm sure she will, when she's ready."
Kim gave a nod of understanding, then left to go talk to Shego.
