(A/N: This is the first time I've done a "Jimmy Neutron" story like this. It takes place in the future, where Jimmy and Cindy are happily married. Okay, here we go...)

It was Thanksgiving night in the city of Retroville. The leaves on the trees had changed colors and were falling, and the temperature was cool. But we haven't the time to sit out here and look at the scenery. First of all, it's dark, and secondly, we're supposed to be at Jimmy and Cindy's house. Come on!

We arrive at Jimmy and Cindy's to see the couple and their families talking and having a pretty good time. This is partly because it's Thanksgiving, and it's also the birthday of Jimmy's younger sister, Ashley. Yup, Thanksgiving happened to fall on her birthday this year. So everyone was having fun right now.

Right now, Ashley and Cindy are having a polite conversation. At one point, Cindy took Ashley's hand and placed it upon her own stomach, which looked pretty swollen (A/N: Anyone know why? If not, the answer will come up soon.). After a minute or so, a huge grin spread across Ashley's face.

"That movement... That was..." Ashley said, almost speechless.

"The baby." Cindy smiled.

"My little niece or nephew. I just wish I knew what it was." Ashley said.

"We know. If the ultrasound had shown us, then we wouldn't be wondering." Cindy said.

Jimmy overheard the conversation between his wife and sister, and he remembered what he and Cindy discussed not so long ago.

A short time later, Jimmy tapped his sister's shoulder and said, "Ashley, Cindy and I need to have a word with you. Alone."

"What did I do?" Ashley asked, sounding worried. When she was younger, hearing her brother say that he needed to have a word with her, alone, often meant that he was unhappy with her. And right now, she felt the familiar nervousness creeping over her.

"You didn't do anything, Ashley. We just have something to tell you." Cindy assured her.

"Would this have anything to do with the fact that I don't remember getting a present from you kids?" Ashley said. Then she said, "Unless..."

"No, feeling the baby move doesn't exactly qualify as a suitable birthday present." Cindy said.

"You'll find out why you didn't get a present from us in a minute." Jimmy said.

The 3 of them made their way to the lab, which was in the basement. Once there, Jimmy said, "Ashley, we actually do have a present for you."

"Really? Well then, where is it, and why did you have to bring me to the lab?" Ashley said.

"Because our present for you isn't something we could just wrap up and put in a box, and it's bound to make you really happy. The way you get when Jimmy and I have good news about us." Cindy told her.

"Oh? So what is it?" Ashley wanted to know.

"Well, you remember how Cindy's pregnant..." Jimmy began.

"Of course I know! I asked how my little niece or nephew was doing when I got here, remember?" Ashley reminded them.

"We know, Ashley. But just recently, Jimmy and I were talking, and we both decided on something." Cindy said.

"And that is..." Ashley said.

"How would you like to be our child's godmother?" Jimmy asked.

When Ashley heard that, she was stunned to silence. Jimmy and Cindy hadn't expected that reaction. Then again, this was the same reaction she had when she first found out that Cindy was pregnant.

"W-What did you say?!" Ashley managed to say once she found her voice.

"How would you like to be our child's godmother?" Jimmy repeated.

Ashley was in so much shock, she was unable to speak. Then she fainted.

"Is she okay?" Cindy asked.

"I think so." Jimmy said as he and Cindy pulled out their earmuffs. They'd need them once Ashley realized what was up.

Sure enough, Ashley woke up, and then she asked Jimmy and Cindy, "Is the privilege of being your child's godmother my birthday present?!"

"Pretty much." Jimmy smiled as he and Cindy quickly and quietly donned their earmuffs.

"I'D LOVE IT MORE THAN ANYTHING I CAN THINK OF! THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT I'VE EVER GOTTEN IN MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE! HOW CAN I EVER THANK YOU FOR THIS?!" Ashley yelled. She yelled a lot more than this, but I didn't want to bore you to tears.

Jimmy and Cindy didn't say anything. They just smiled, happy in the knowledge that Ashley's worry and disappointment was gone.

"I'm glad she liked her present." Cindy said.

"Me too. Her reaction says it all, and then some." Jimmy said as he and his wife watched the godmother-to-be celebrate.

But I'm not going to end the story here. Oh no! You're probably wondering what the baby will be like. So I'm going to give you that in the next chapter, but that's not until December. Until then, stay tuned!
