She smiled that fake smile that he suddenly realized he hated. Did she truly dislike Betty for the childish crush he'd had on her eons ago? No… he reasoned. It was the way Betty seemed to speak to Cindy that spoke for her body language. Betty thought she was better. And it was for the first time that Jimmy realized with a strange tug on his heart, he didn't agree. (High School AU)

Out of options, Jimmy did the one thing he knew would completely tear his heart apart when he inevitably got off the bathroom floor; he gently pulled her into his arms and onto his lap. As she sobbed into his chest, he ran his hand up and down her back. Selfishly he breathed her in, his own personal drug.

Set before the summer of senior year. Libby is throwing her end of the season get together, and Jimmy and Cindy haven't seen one another in weeks. Their reunion, and other cute and angsty drama ensues. Please read, I suck at summaries.

Jimmy and the gang are all back from their first year of college. As the summer begins to wind down will Jimmy finally tell Cindy how he really feels about her? Or will an old ex emerge and steal his thunder? J/C S/L
