Part 7
The Truth
~~~~~~
The girl's eyes widened. 'She lied? And she's telling me about it? What the heck is going on?' Shego drew in a deep breath.
"Truth is, I couldn't stand to see you hurt like that so I picked you up and carried you home."
"With a broken rib??"
"Yeha I just ignored it."
"You ignored it??? What are you an idiot??? Shego, you don't just ignored a broken rib!" The woman rolled her eyes.
"Jeeze I know. It wasn't a big deal Kimmie."
"Not a big deal??? Shego you walked miles with an unattended fracture!!" A grin crossed over the woman's face causing the furious girl to raise an eyebrow at her.
"If I didn't know any better I'd say your worried about me." Kim blushed.
"And what if I do! Do you have a problem with th-"
"Please, don't yell Kimmie." The girl was quiet. 'Please?? Since when does Shego say please?'
"So what is that supposed to mean Shego? That your not going to be evil any more?"
"Don't go being sarcastic with me princess."
"Oh and since when did you start caring about what I do?!"
"Since I fell in love with you."
A silence filled the room as the villainess stared at the heroine with a serious look. The girl was speechless. "Thats why I saved you, because I love you Kim." The red head recalled what had happened before the explosion. Was it real after all? Was that kiss... 'That kiss...' The orange haired girl pressed her fingers against her lips in a very dazed manner causing the injured woman to smile. "I see your finally remembering our kiss huh princess?" The girl quickly snapped out of her trance and stared at Shego. Giggling in response, the woman slowly reached for her hand, placing it to her chest where her heart was. Kim was shocked when she felt how fast the woman's heart was beating. She didn't even notice the heart monitor the woman was attached to, this was proof enough for her. A warm smile crossed her lips as she bent down to the woman's level.
"I love you too Shego."
