KIMS P O V

The ballroom was filled with people as they danced, mingled, drinking, everything you could think of at a ' fancy shindig '. As for me, I wasn't really a huge fan on coming tonight. Ron and I had just broken up about two weeks ago, both mutual about it, he knew I'm having trouble with my sexuality and I've been struggling in the relationship. We both are still great friends thankfully, I had invited him tonight but he said it was too soon for something like this, which I understand. I just wish I could leave, however my mothers friend invited us to this and that would be rude of me. sighing softly I walk over to the bar, and once the bartender looks at me he smirked " what can I get for you pumpkin" I shiver " It's Kim, not pumpkin " I snap back and he grins " feisty, I like it." He grins and I growl lowly, not in the mood to be annoyed with or flirted with. Besides. Only one person can call me by that nickname. " Just give her a Mai tai, think you can do that while keeping your mouth shut?" My eyes went wide, I know that voice all to well turning around and facing ... Monique " oh thank goodness " I whisper in relief " someone I know " she walks over to me " Wassup Girlfriend, your parents brought you here too?" She asked and I nodded as the bartender slid over my drink and I hand him the cash for it " Ohhh yeah, you have no idea " I sigh looking Monique up and down " damn girl that dress is fire" I grin and she grinned back " oh wait! I wanna see the ring!" She squeals holding out her hand and I look down at the large rock on her finger, my best friend was now engaged. And I couldn't be more happy for her. " Roman's a good man, I'm so happy you found someone who turned his life around and is kicking the worlds ass in law " I say with a grin, Roman was one of my nemises in the past, but one day after he almost died, and I had saved him, he asked me for help. Which I knew was hard for the guy. He was cocky and cruel, four years ago. being a seventeen  your old and having a father named Motor Ed, I can understand how he had grown up, But has changed so much since than. And he found the love of his life in my best friend. " Speaking of the ring, miss maid of honor, we still need to wedding prep!" I giggle at Monique's words " trust me I know, we will plan it in a couple days, you guys have just moved back to Middleton so Enjoy unpacking and than we can get to the fun stuff " I suggest and Monique just rolled her eyes " finnnneeeeee" she drags her one word as long as she could with a grin " I'm gonna go dance, wanna join?" She asks grabbing my free hand, asking, but not asking. She was definitely gonna forge me onto that floor, I sigh and finish my drink " I'm gonna regret this. "I say as she dragged me into the middle of the ballroom. Yeah.. definitely regretting this already.

As we danced along with the music that was playing, the drink started to slightly kick in. Giving me a little courage to dance to the motion of the music. Which caught unwanted attention as a young man walked over and grabbed my hips turning me to face him " Hey~ " I groan, of course he hit's on me with a ' Hey~ ' he flashes his charming smile " care to dance with me?" He asks and I shake my head " no thanks, I'm dancing with my friend " I go to turn around but see Monique with Roman and feel his hand on my hips again forcing me to him once again " Well she's busy now, so dance " he says now in a cold tone. A shiver ran down my spine. Knowing this man wasn't loosening his grip, the last thing I want to do is cause a scene at this ball, but I wasn't going to let this idiot think he can have his way. But I didn't get the chance to tell him that.

" Are you deaf mate? She said buzz off'! she's with me " my heart skipped a beat, the small hairs on my neck and arms stood up, and my mouth instantly dried at the raspy sardonic voice, turning to face my rival " She-" Before I could finish, shego pulled me to her by my hips, keeping her left arm around me " I suggest you leave my date alone, unless you want to lose your little friend that's attached to you " she said as her fingertips zapped with plasma, the once cocky man yelped and backed away. Lucky for him, he had one brain cell still working and it told him flight, not fight. I look up at the raven haired woman as she turns to face me, shego was in a tux, and damn did she look good. A dark black tuxedo with a Lime green tie, a dyed rose attached in the pocket of the suit, also lime green, I look up into those emeralds eyes " What are you doing here?" I asked realizing now that she had her hand on my hips as she swayed to the music with me in hand " Oh I could ask you the same thing kitten. This isn't exactly your scene now is it?" She asked and my eyes went wide " kitten?! " I whisper yell and she grins at me " seriously Shego, another pet name?" I ask and as her emeralds eyes rolled " Shiloh." My eyes blink " huh?" I ask a little confused. She dipped me along with the song and I gasp holding onto her shoulder's. Damn where they nice to grip onto... focus Kim!! " My name, Kimmie. My name is Shiloh. I don't go by Shego here " she says and once she lifts me back up I wrap my arms around her neck and let my fingers trail her hair " Is that your real name?"  I ask and she groaned and nodded " You'd hear it eventually sometime tonight, so I might as well tell you the truth. " she scoffed and I smile up at her " okay, So I'm guessing tonight's a truce night?" I ask, Shego didn't seem to be as cocky as usual. Still sarcastic, but it's just apart of who she is. That's never changing, " Yes, princess. I can't really afford to piss off my mother tonight. So tonight is a truce. "
