Chapter Two
Movies and Realization
Sheldon was waiting outside Jenny's house when she came running out the next morning. It was nothing unusual, but for some reason this time… she was really happy he was there. He had that goofy, shy grin on his face, as he said, "I was just about to knock… I was going to ask if you wanted to… ya know… go somewhere… with me…" Sheldon gulped, and smiled.
Jenny gave him a little smile, "Okay, Sheldon. What would you like to do?"
Sheldon's eyes widened, "R-really? Just me, and you?"
"Sure. Why not? What did you have in mind?"
"W-well… we could go see an early movie… or… and…"
"Okay, let's do a movie."
Sheldon looked like he was going to burst. Jenny had never seen him look this happy, excited, nervous, and shy all at the same time, "O-okay."

As Jenny and Sheldon walked into the theater, Jenny noticed some familiar faces. Brit Crust was there with Don Prima. Jenny had went out with Don once, and regretted. He called himself the 'Donster' for Pete's sake! Not only that. Don had made her say something terrible about her friend standing next to her. 'Like being a geek is contagious,' she thought, 'Anyway, Sheldon isn't so much of a geek… at least not to me. At least he doesn't call himself the 'Sheldster'!'
She and Don were friendly toward each other, but that's as far as it would ever go. "Well, well. If it isn't the tin can, and one of her faithful dweeb," Brit laughed that annoying airy laugh of hers.
"Come on, Sheldon. Let's not sink to her level," Jenny rolled her eyes, as she and Sheldon walked past them.
They took their seats, and Sheldon began rummaging through his book bag. Jenny started to wonder why he even brought it with him. Her thoughts were soon answered when he brought out a can of oil. "I brought this for you."
"Sheldon… that was really thoughtful. Thanks," she blushed a little as she took the can.
He handed her a straw. She opened it, put the straw in, and started sipping on it. Shortly after that, the movie started.

They talked about their favorite parts of the movie the whole way home. Jenny could explain the feelings she was getting. It was new. It felt nice, but it made her nervous at the same time. "Well… here you are," Sheldon smiled, nervously.
"Thanks, Sheldon. I had a really nice time, um… I… guess I'll see you tomorrow."
"Y-you want to hang out with me again tomorrow?"
"Sure. Why wouldn't I?"
Sheldon blushed. Jenny gave him a small kiss on the cheek, and then she walked inside. She made her way to the lab, where she knew her mom would be. "Hello, dear. How was your day?"
"Very nice, mom. Sheldon was a perfect gentleman. I had such a good time with him, and we're going to do something again tomorrow."
Professor Wakeman was smiling sweetly. Jenny looked confused. "I'm glad you had a good time, dear. You seem very excited."
"Yeah. I don't know what's up with that. I mean… it's Sheldon. I see him every day. It's the same Sheldon who follows me around, and fixes me when something goes wrong. It's almost seems like I…" Jenny's eyes widened, "Uh-oh."
"What's wrong, dear?"
"I'm… I'm going on to my room. I'll see you later, mom."
"Alright, dear."
Jenny made her way up to her room. She sat down on her bed, her eyes still wide. "It can't be," she whispered to herself, "Can it? Do I like Sheldon… like that?"
She remembered how she got slightly jealous when he was paying a little bit of attention to Pteresa. She didn't think anything of it. He accused her of being jealous, and she had to admit… "I guess maybe I do… but… now that I do… how do I act around him?"
Jenny lay down on her bed, and hugged her pillow, 'He's so nice, and thoughtful. He stayed here… just for me. I never gave him the time of day… not even a little bit of a chance. Every time I even thought about it, something happened, and… what do I do now? I wish Brad were here.'
She expected to see him popping up in front of her window, but she knew that wasn't going to happen. Brad was on vacation. She would have to be on her own on this one. 'I'm a girl robot super hero! I can handle this. I can handle this! I've fought aliens, other robots, and… I can handle this!' Jenny sighed, "I hope I can handle this."
A/N: I'm so sorry the first two chapters are so short. Anyways, here's chapter two. Suggestions, anyone? They're appreciated. Thanks ahead of time. Thanks to my first reviewer on this fic. I really appreciate it. Also, if I spelled that one chicks name (Pteresa) wrong, I'm sorry.
