Reunion Nachos

As missions went it hadn't been all that bad. Shego and Ron had gone to some little island by the east coast of Africa and fought some new and emerging villain, La Reynard, who had made his base in the caldera of some extinct volcano. Apparently he thought it was far enough from Europe to keep the authorities from looking for him there. The twit based his whole look off of the trickster character in French literature and used all sorts of fox based outfits and devices in his activities. Shego had to admit that it did look cute and would have been a good motif choice for Kimmie, especially the ears.

Ron had done his usual bang up job as a distraction and took out a good number of henchmen at the same time. They hadn't been Hench Co. thugs so the fight was easier than it should have been, but some bad guys just didn't have the budget to be really good bad guys. She had beat Reynard down in quick order as his savate skills had nothing on her and her plasma hands made him flinch, which was kind of fun. The only down side to the trip had been Ron's whining on the way back to Middleton because of her making him do his homework.

Rufus had been massively helpful though, triggering the self-destruct for the base and getting her some pens on the plane so she could grade the stack of papers she had brought with her. It kind of scared her how much she liked the naked mole rat but was just irritated by the owner. Rufus was becoming near and dear to her, since he frequently saved the day and kept Ron out of danger. Shego thought he needed a medal and at the very least she let him take some of her nachos.

She rolled her shoulders to work out the kinks that had set in on the flight back as she entered the house. The hot tub would feel really good tonight that was for sure. She smirked to herself, deciding to mess with her Princess, as she had missed her. "Honey, I'm home!"

"I'm in the kitchen!" called back Kim and Shego almost panicked. Surely Kim wouldn't be as crazy as to attempt to actually cook anything...right? Surely Kimmie had learned that she and cooking hadn't mixed...right?

Shego dumped her school stuff by the door and hustled into the kitchen, wanting to save them all from food poisoning or worse. When she turned the corner she saw that the table was set, with candles and food already on the table. It smelled like Thai. The tired ex-thief looked at the spread a bit confused. "Uh...Kim?"

The red head smiled at Shego and waved her over. "Hungry?"

Shego hadn't moved from where she had sort of frozen, she just looked at the spread on the table in almost disbelief. Was that really Tom Ka Gai she was smelling? "Yes."

"Well, come on over and get some. I picked us up some food to go and had it ready once I heard you were on your way home. I just put it on plates so it would look good." replied Kim as she stood up, heading for the fridge. "What did you want to drink?"

"How did you...nerdlinger." Shego realized who had to have called Kim to let her know when she and Ron had been on their way home. It was the only way possible that Kimmie had known when she would be there. Talk about cheating.

"When Wade called I placed the order and got everything ready. Drink?"

"Uh...water."

While Kim was heading over with the glasses, Shego used her plasma powers to light the candles. After a brief flare of green the room was filled with the amber light of the wax tapers that Kim had made sure to place out of the way, so they could see each other clearly across the table. Kim raised her glass, looking into the emerald green eyes at the other side of the table and smiled. "To us."
