Part 4

The date went relatively well in Jimmy's point of view, but the thought of Sin being almost just like Cindy was simply ridiculous.

"Jimmy?" Sin's voice echoed in Jimmy's mind, and he smiled crookedly and awkwardly at her as they walked toward his car.

"Umm, yeah?" he replied. Sin looked at him in confusion but shrugged and hugged his arm even tighter.

"You're quiet tonight," Sin said with a smile.

"Yeah. I know."

"So. What's on your mind, monkeybutt?"

Jimmy snorted loudly, but covered up his nose and mouth before smiling at Sin.

"What?" he asked, bemused. Sin grinned at him but didn't bother with an explanation before hopping into Jimmy's car, which they had just reached.

Jimmy got in slowly, his head and heart both spinning with more thoughts of Sin and Cindy.

"So, do you miss Albany, Sin?"

"Yeah, pretty much."

"And did you... Did you ever talk to that one girl? Cindy?"

"Umm, ye-no."

Ye-no? How odd... She was kind of acting strange tonight too...

"Sin?" whispered Jimmy as he settled comfortably into his seat. "Have you ever.. Have you ever lied to someone and you thought it was for the best?"

Silence filled the car until Sin looked at Jimmy and replied, "Yeah. Yeah, I have."

Jimmy nodded knowingly and started the car, not even bothering to say anything. To him, enough had been said tonight. But apparently, Sin had a different idea.

"Why do you ask?" her voice bitter.

Jimmy shrugged and pulled slowly out of the parking spot, putting his arm around the back of Sin's seat and looking back, catching a glimpse of Sin's expression.

"Jimmy?" she asked quickly and harshly. "Why did you ask?"

"Calm down, Sin, I was just curious, don't freak out!"

Sin took a deep breath and then stared at Jimmy, his face frozen.

"I'm sorry.. I'm sorry for being so mean..." With that, she was back to her cheery old self.

"I'm sorry I asked, geez!" muttered Jimmy, his mood growing sour.

Nothing was said as Jimmy's car cruised along the street, in search of Sin's house. When they reached it, Jimmy got out of the car, rushing to the passenger side and opening the door, ever the gentleman.

Silently, they made their way to the door, both of them glancing at each other anxiously. When they reached the door, both of them, at the same time, turned to the other, rushing to apologize. But as they turned toward each other, they ran into each other, their foreheads colliding.

"Ow!" they cried in unison.

"Wow," chuckled Jimmy. "What a mood breaker."

Laughing along, Sin agreed, inching closer to Jimmy. Slowly, she wrapped her arms around his neck, her emerald green eyes sparkling.

"I had a really nice time, Jimmy."

"Same here, Sin," whispered Jimmy, leaning in for the kill. Err, kiss...

They remained connected to each other for a long time, a nice buzzing faintly appearing in Jimmy's head. It felt pleasant, and he basked in his own glory, the glory of getting such a perfect girl.

"You know," said Sin," You can call me Cindy."

Smiling devilishly, she wiggled her fingers at Jimmy and snuck in the door, leaving Jimmy to stare after her in a stupor.

So he had been right.
