Jealousy – Chapter Three

Since I have been horrible lately and haven't updated at all, this chapter will be extremely long. Some of it may not be posted all in one chapter, but in multiple onces. But spring break is coming up, so many chapters will be added shortly. Also, I will be starting another story soon, so check it out once it's up please. Enjoy, and please review!

Cindy could barely control her rage. But she had to. Jimmy, or anyone else for that matter, could never know she was jealous of that little brat Betty Quinlan.

Throughout primary school, Cindy spent her time perfecting her social status and reputation. She couldn't have it ruined by a little bit of jealousy. But, it wasn't even jealousy. Cindy Vortex was NOT jealous. She was simply… surprised. Right?

Whether she was jealous or not, hiding her emotions was crucial at this point. So Cindy sat back, and tried to ignore the ongoing flirting between Jimmy and Betty during the school day.

The day dragged on and on, and ignoring the couple was proving to be more difficult than Cindy expected. The blonde many times just wanted to turn around quickly and start screaming for them to shut up. Yet she knew she was much too sophisticated to lose control like that.

Once class had ended, Cindy rushed to get her things, slipped them into her backpack, and rushed out the door, without seeming like she was trying to escape. Libby followed her, much to Cindy's dismay. She really didn't feel like talking to anyone at the moment, but couldn't deny her best friend.

She walked down the street in silence, until her friend finally piped up.

"What's wrong with you, girl? You've been actin' weird all day today. I've never seen ya so quiet."

Cindy was quick to respond, almost to the point of yelling, "Nothing's wrong, Libs, nothing at all."

But Libby didn't buy it for a moment. Though seeing her best friend like this was painful, she knew not to push her over the edge.

"If you say so, but as long as you know I'm always here for ya." She said, then gave Cindy a hug and walked up her driveway.

Finally Cindy was happily alone. Alone to think. To ponder on her current situation. What was her situation exactly? Well, she was in love with a guy who hates her guts, and just when they started becoming closer, he likes her enemy, and now she had no one. She was all alone.

Wait, did she just admit to herself that she was in love with Neutron? Jimmy Neutron? There was no way. Or was there? Just like a while back, on that island, that wasn't just simple friendship she was feeling, was it? There was something more. There had to have been. She reached into her pocket, and felt the small pearl that she carried with her everywhere she went. She was positive that wasn't just friendship.

So now, she had established her standings. But her question was, what was she to do about them? There had to be something…

There's chapter three. Chapter four will be up soon, I won't keep you waiting for long. Unless I don't get any more reviews…. hint hint
