Kim moaned as Shego deepened their goodbye kiss and gently pushed her against the doorframe of her apartment. “Shego.” Kim muttered. “I have to get to practise.”
“Aww Kimmie.” Shego protested, playfully pinning her harder between her lithe body and the metal doorframe. She nipped at Kim’s neck, invoking another soft moan from the cheerleader.
“I’ll come back after dinner.” Kim promised. “I’ll tell mom and dad I’ve got a mission.” Shego grinned.
“Lying for me, Princess? Must be love.” Kim’s gaze suddenly turned serious as she looked up at her secret girlfriend. “It is.” She smiled. “I love you Shego.”
After Kim left for practise Shego went back inside her apartment to clear up the mess the two of them had made preparing lunch. When there was a knock on her door she smirked. “Miss me already Pumpkin?” She frowned as she found Mrs. Dr. Possible standing on her doorstep.
“It’s Shego, right?” She asked timidly. Shego nodded. “Can I come in? We need to talk.”
Shego stepped aside to let the woman in and took a deep breath before closing the door and following her in to the living room. “Can I get you something?” Shego asked, trying to break the silence that had settled. Kim’s mom shook her head and decided to get straight to her point.
“I know about…about you and…”
“I’m dating your daughter.” Shego tried to suppress a grin as she saw the older woman squirm at her openness.
“Yes. I know. And I want you to end it.” She placed a thick brown envelope on the glass coffee table that sat in the centre of the room and looked away awkwardly as Shego picked it up to see what was inside. She emitted what sounded to Mrs. Dr. Possible like a low feral growl and then shoved the package back in to her hands.
“You’re trying to buy me off? Slip me a couple G’s while no one’s around and get me out of Kim’s life. Is that it?” Shego barked, causing the other woman to back away.
“I can’t let you do this to Kim.” The doctor objected, her maternal instincts replacing her fear.
“Do what? Make her happy? Love her?”
“Destroy her.” The older woman interrupted. “Kim is sixteen years old and she has her whole future ahead of her and you don’t fit in to Shego.”
Shego forced herself to control her powers as her hands erupted. “I’m not leaving Kimmie.” Mrs. Possible sighed as she looked at the enraged woman.
“Shego, you’re older than she is, you’re a bad person and a bad influence. Kim’s been cutting classes to come see you. I’ve known for a while.”
“How?” Shego asked. “We’ve been careful. No one knows.”
“I’m her mother.” She replied as though it explained everything. “I know about these things, no matter how hard Kim tries to hide them. And I can see where this is leading. Kim loves you and I’m not denying that you love her, but don’t you see how you’re hurting her?”
Shego blinked and laughed. “Hurting? I go easy on her when we fight. I make sure Drakken and then rest of those goons don’t touch her-“
“You’re ruining her life.” Mrs. Possible objected. “She’s cutting class, lying, sneaking around…what next? She drops out to spend more time with you? She gives up saving the world because she doesn’t want to hurt you? Or she goes bad like you did just to make you happy?” Shego snorted at the woman’s stupidity. Kim would never do any of those things. “Kim would do anything for you Shego! Even throw her life away. Stop being so damn selfish and do the right thing for her!”
Shego lost her cocky grin and looked at the floor. The words stung, but only because they were true. She had selfishly wanted Kim all to herself. She didn’t want to share her with the world. It had only been a few days ago that she’s convinced her to just send Ron on a mission alone so that Shego could be with her longer. Kim had also stopped talking about college and started talking about getting their own place and revealing their relationship to her family. “You’re right.” The words cut her throat like razorblades as she forced them out.
Mrs. Possible looked genuinely sympathetic as she took Shego in her arms and hugged her like she were consoling Kim. “You have to end it Shego. For Kim’s sake.” The raven-haired woman nodded and pulled away, wiping her eyes.
“I’ll do it tomorrow. I just…I need one more night.”
Mrs. Possible shook her head. “Do it tonight Shego. The sooner you do it the quicker everyone can get on with their lives.” Shego reluctantly nodded and slumped in to an armchair as Kim’s mom let herself out.
“Everyone but me.” She sobbed. She looked up at her fireplace where a picture of Kim posing for her stared back. “I’m sorry Kim.”
